(Free for all the girls who have yet to meet Cangly!)

The beach. Somehow it was the only reminder to the girls that they were in a tropical paradise. White sands, clear warm water, so intoxicating, so exciting, so dangerous if you don't pay attention. It was a prime monster hunting ground, and now, it was Xenoanthropological Officer N!xao Cangelosi's turn to set the bait in one of the many coves. Plenty of chances to catch girls off guard, especially the more cautious ones...

Renetta's day had gotten off to a disconcerting start. The night before, her dreams had been haunted by a poltergeist, who'd given her her first sexual experience. Or so he had told her. But she didn't believe it. She couldn't. Ghosts weren't real, and nothing it had told her made any sense. It had just been a dream. Only when she'd awoken, the physical evidence of her body, her clothes, and her bedsheets. There had been so much of it that she'd had to clean off and change immediately, even changing her sheets. She'd just been thankful that none of it had seeped into her mattress. It was humiliating, waking up swimming in her own juices. The only saving grace of the whole thing was that she didn't have a roommate. Who knows what she'd been doing in her sleep.

She sneaked out of her dorm early that morning to wash her shame out of her soiled clothes and sheets. As her laundry spun, so did her mind, trying to wrap itself around everything that dream had meant. Firstly, she was still a virgin. That dream may have been her first serious sexual experience, but it was just a dream, and none of it was real. It wasn't sex if it was just solo fantasy. If that ghost had been real, and it was actually causing it, then... but it wasn't. It wasn't real, and nothing it said was true in the rules of the real world. There were no "creatures" here, whatever that was supposed to mean. And that girl hadn't...

That was the other thing. She'd dreamed of sex with another girl. Why did she do that? Both the girl and the ghost had said that she secretly desired girls. Everything else was sleeptalk gibberish, but... could that part be true? Had that been her subconscious trying to tell her something? And why had she never thought about it until the first night she arrived here? That girl... she was beautiful, and alluring. Renetta had wanted her. She'd gotten her. Why?

Between her laundry and her uncertainty, Renetta ended up missing the track meet practice that she'd planned to watch. Instead, she just went round and round in circles with her thoughts and her questions, until finally it was too much. She needed a break, maybe a change of scenery. She decided that if she was on a tropical island, she might as well take advantage of it. She didn't feel like being around anyone right now, especially with this new supposed attraction to girls kicking around her head. So she left her dorm and went searching for a nice, isolated location.

By the middle of the afternoon, she finally arrived at a beach, seemingly deserted. She plopped down on the sand and watched the clear water rolling into the shore. The weather was warm, and Renetta was glad she'd dressed appropriately. She wore a loose-fitting white t-shirt, and khaki shorts down to her knees. Though she was wearing a pair of white cotton panties, she went without a bra, as she often did due to her small bust. A golden choker fit around her neck, and her hair hung down one side, tied around a simple ornament. Alone with herself and her thoughts, the girl began to recount, step by step, the events of the dream, allowing herself to face what they might mean. It was just a dream. It wasn't real. Nothing was going on except what was in her head.

From its position in the cove overlooking the small stretch of beach, Cangelosi spotted the small Renetta approach the clearing, sitting down and just...well...looking out at the ocean. It had recognized the girl as one of the newer arrivals. Hard to miss, actually, short, so deeply coffee-shaded, with that shy hunched over shuffle that the blob oh so loved to observe. Probably homesick already. Wait, no, it can smell the scent in the air. One of the monsters had toyed with her, certainly, but by no sense defiled. The yellowish eyes glowed, pseudopod daring to go out another inch, just...drinking in the form.

After a while of thinking and reconciling, the girl lay back against the sand. She let her eyes drift closed and listened to the sound of the waves crashing onto the shore. She willed her mind to find peace, trying to accept the things she'd dreamed about and was thinking about herself now. She realized that maybe this didn't have an easy answer, but she would have to do some exploring herself to understand. That could happen in time, though. For the moment, she just wanted to relax, and find a little tranquility. This was a beautiful island, after all. With all that had been going on the last two days, she'd almost forgotten to appreciate it.

Machi walked the beach slowly enjoying the sight and the sound of the crashing waves. The island was unusual with talks of strange dreams and such, she did sense something sinister but she assumed it was just the isolated feel of the island. She was wearing a pair of jeans shorts; and a regular t-shirt it was form fitting but her bust was neatly tucked underneath the fabric thanks to strapping them down. As she walked she caught sight of a cute girl laying on the beach taking in the scenery, she looked a tad worried. She decided to approach the girl.

"Enjoying the day ?" She questioned as she approached her words friendly and kind.

Renetta jumped slightly as the Machi spoke, surprising her and shaking her from her thoughts. She sat up quickly. "Oh, um, y-yes. It's very nice," she said quietly, her head slightly bowed. She was clearly rather shy, at least around strangers, but she didn't act unpleasant or distant. "A-and you?" she asked with a sincere sense of interest.

Cangelosi seemed to jump too as the second girl approached. It blinked, looking over this new guest. Another of the new girls, it seemed. A bit less shy than the other one. Well, the more the merrier, the alien thought. Might even be more enriching from a scientific perspective witl all these friendship rituals and such. With an all-female population, there's always new connections popping up.

Machi chuckled a little at the young girl, she was cute and friendly. She was tad bit shy, an easy deduction. As a professional anti-social person she was able to observe the standard types of human behavior and more easily. All she had to do was look, lucky enough the girl was timid thus MAchi would have an easier time having a conversation with the girl. luckily this also gave her the advantage of hiding her own feelings through body language. "I'm enjoying the day for what it is, though it would be nice to have sakara trees near the beach... it would make for a beautiful sight during the early the spring" She commented in charming tone.

Renetta smiled as best she could. The girl seemed friendly, even though she looked rather intimidating. "I'm sure they would," she agreed with the girl's statement. "I've never seen them myself, but I hear they're lovely. I'm Renetta, by the way." She extended a hand to the other girl. "If you don't mind me asking, what are you doing out here?"

"Takashi Machi." Machi replied bowing as she spoke before she accepted the girls hand in a shake. She then found a seat in the sand. She was voluptuous girl a few shades lighter than Renetta, but it was evident that she also Japanese and well fit. Now Closer Renetta would see Machi's Multicolor eyes, as well the prominent accent the samurai girl carried."There very lovely especially at sunset, so are the flowers of Japan a field of them is just lovely, if one had choice to be burried it should be in a field of flowers, surrounded by For-get me not..."

Machi chatted with enthusiasm displaying her love for flowers briefly before going into a more anti-social mode. She was taking a walk, and looking for a decent training spot... She didn't what was offered at the school, the gym and training dojo was too static and lifeless. She was used to the open air, the smell of trees and their bark, the soft hints of honey from honey bees combined with the gentle fragrance of Flowers; the sound of rushing water. Created a calming yet highly active atmosphere. "No reasons really just taking in the sights thats all." Machi explained in a kind manner, though she was distant with her answer in tone of voice.

Cangelosi chirred from deep within its cave, concentrating on Renetta and Machi. Indeed these girls seemed deep in conversation, but not fully relaxed. That redhead definitely looked too alert, as if she's run into her share of trouble before she came to the island. Rather tricky now, but if the alien played its cards right with the weather report...

There. A drop of rain, then another, then another. Looked like the kick-up of a small summer shower. A good set-up for the girls to find shelter, and what better place than this friendly looking alcove where the blob lay in wait?

"Oh. I see," Renetta said softly. She followed the girl's cue and stared out over the ocean, not sure what else to say to the girl. She seemed fairly soft spoken, like maybe she didn't want to be disturbed, but Renetta didn't want to be rude, either. She glanced back at the girl a few times, unable to help but notice the color of her eyes, shifting through her irises. Would it be rude to ask her about it? She was debating with herself, trying to come up with any reasonable topic of conversation, when she felt a splash of water on her cheek. At first she thought it must have been some stray surf. However, it was soon joined by another, and then a third on her forehead. Renetta looked up and noticed the light clouds that had suddenly collected above.

"Oh no!" Renetta jumped to her feet, bemoaning the sudden shift in the weather. She held her arms above her head as she began to look around. "Ugh, we should get out of this rain before we catch cold." She began looking around for the nearest shelter. The trees she'd come through were far behind them now, across a long expanse of empty beach. It would be better to find somewhere nearby to take shelter until the storm passed.

Machi closed her eye’s for a few seconds as she took in the sounds. She also took in Rennneta’s presences, it wasn’t often she could sit with another. At least Renneta wasn’t trying to pray, too many people did that, besides she was trying to come up with a conversation stater herself. It wasn’t hard so she heard, she could explain her eye color, the girl was looking at the enough to warrant the conversation. She didn’t mind explaining her ancestry, excluding her own immediate family she had no problem explain why she had mixed colored eye’s. Before she could even start the topic splashes of water fell on her face.

It only took a few drops to realize it was beging to rain.’ Odd.’ Machi thought as she stood up looking up at the sky.’ I didn’t smell any rain the air.’ She begins to question, but Renetta’s words brought her to the current situation. The rain was already pouring and both girls were getting soaked. “Right... “ Machi said as a clap of thunder irrupted over head, Looking she spotted something in a distance a cliff under neath it an Alcove.” There She shouted grabbing hold of Renneta’s Hand and pointed before trudging off with the girl in toe.

Renetta stepped quickly to keep up with Machi's pace. Together, they entered the cove, managing to find shelter from the pouring rain.

"Phew," Renetta sighed, leaning against a nearby rock that's just right for sitting on. "That was so strange. The skies were clear just a minute ago, and nobody said anything about it raining today." She brushed some of the water out of her hair. "Do rain storms like that usually happe-" Looking down, she saw that her clothes were already mostly soaked. Unfortunately, that meant that her white shirt had become both translucent and rather clingy to her small breasts just underneath. Her dark nipples were especially apparent, hardened by the cool water and poking prominently against the heavy fabric of the wet shirt. She gasped and panicked for a moment before crossing her arms over her chest and turning away from the other girl. She was blushing brightly as she wondered if the other girl had seen her state.

Ah, the classic "wet see-through shirt caused by rainstorm" ploy. Never got old. As Renetta and Machi entered the cove, they began to feel warmer, as if expected. Already the redhead looked like she was showing signs of suspicion. May have to work on that. Still, there was nothing to indicate any present danger. Just a small fire pit with a few blankets scattered about. Probably leftovers from an earlier Tramp camp out...
