-Who: Lizards and anyone!
-What: Lizards are swarming Mirage
-When: From morning to whenever the lizards are driven off/defeated
-Where: Location 6! Outside, between the tennis courts, sauna, and garden
-Rating: PG-13 for fighting
-Status: Incomplete

Some lizards were off in the garden, replanting the flowers however they wanted: upside down, sideways, burying them completely, or ripping the heads off and burying just the stems. Two had taken a dip in the small pond inside the garden, although they couldn't quite get in it all the way as it wasn't very big and they, well, were. Others were on the tennis court, amusing themselves with the tennis balls. A few were gleefully pelting one with them, but since they were small and fuzzy and the lizards had tough hides, it didn't hurt as much as throwing a bowling ball at it full speed would. A small group had ventured over to the outside pool, poking at the water warily. The group crowded too close, wanting to get a better view at this odd lake, that the one who had poked the water slipped and fell in with a loud squeal. It panicked for a moment before it realized it could stand up easily; it was in the shallow end.

(OOC: As the day goes on, more and more will appear. There will be about 200 total, so about four and a half for each person, including those who are staying inside, so those who are fighting will have more to take down.)

The rest of the lizards had disappeared, for the moment, at least. Maybe they scared them all off. Part of Illyana hoped they hadn't. Her blood was racing through her system, and it had felt good to vent some of her frustration at the Planet on the lizards.

"You're welcome," she said, grinning at him. She wasn't even that winded. Good to know she hadn't fallen too out of shape yet. "I can match you on bad arrivals and meetings. I got plopped here in the middle of a hurricane, and I nearly took the head off of the first guy I met." She held out her hand. "Illyana Rasputin, pleased to meet you." She shrugged. "It's usually much more low-key than this, although there have been a few bad patches since I got here." She frowned slightly as she remembered the very evil presence she'd felt permeate the resort not too long after her arrival. Nothing of the sort accompanied these lizards, thank goodness.

"Where are you from?" Illyana asked. Maybe he was from her world, if she was lucky.

"A hurricane?" Quatre grinned. "Can't say I've ever been in one of those. I'm used to the desert. You haven't seen a mobile suit, have you? I came out here to get it so I might be able to help but it's just... gone. It came here with me so I'm not sure how it could have just disappeared and I don't think anyone could have just walked right up to it and taken it..." Quatre refrained from calling it a Gundam or Sandrock, just in case him being a Gundam pilot would get him in trouble here... He was still rather confused on how he'd gotten here in the first place.

He took her hand and shook it in return. "Quatre Raberba Winner." He stated his full name, watching her face for any sign of recognition. "I'm from the L4 Colony."

Mobile suit? What the heck was that? The only thing that came to mind was Voltron, and she was pretty sure Quatre didn't mean that. "I'm not sure what that is," Illyana said, casting her eyes around, just to make sure the lizards were really leaving them alone. She didn't want to let her guard down.

And when he introduced himself, Illyana understood why she had no clue what he'd been talking about. She'd never heard of the L4 Colony. "Nice to meet you, Quatre," she said. She shook his hand firmly. "I'm from Westchester, New York, in the United States. Nowhere near the desert, but I grew up in Siberia, which some people call a frozen desert."

"It's... a large humanoid looking mechanical suit. A giant robot, I think would be better to understand. When I find it, I'll show it you," Quatre promised. That is, if he could find it. He still didn't understand how something that big could get lost.

"I've been to New York a few times. Can't say I've been to Siberia. I grew up in space on the colony. The Earth is very beautiful, though. The first time I went there was when I was 15. It was breathtaking." Quatre had a fond little smile on his face as he recalled his first peaceful view of the Earth.

Illyana fought back a laugh. He did have a Voltron. "It's not made up of little robots, is it?" She couldn't help it. Something from cartoons was real? Despite the situation, she was tickled by this. "I've got to see this. Wait. That wasn't a bad pick-up line, was it?" She gave him a look, but she smirked as she spoke, so he'd know she was joking.

"I go to school an hour out of the City, in West Chester. Or at least, I used to before I was dunked here." Her eyes widened as Quatre mentioned living on a space colony. "Seriously?" she asked. "That's kind of awesome. Good to know the space program actually works in the future." He had to be from the future if he lived in space. If he was from Earth and lived in space, she corrected herself. He didn't look like a Shi'Ar, though, so she figured her assumption had to be right. "It is gorgeous from space," she agreed. "I got to see it when I was about the same age. Sort of a school field trip."
