Kia floated up to the treehouses where many of the children Max and other Guardians rescued resided in. She tried to keep her ghastly breathing down not to wake them...yet. Being the Guardian's companion made her the second-in-command of Zeliria's chain of authority. She watched over the children, managed all exports and imports of islands as well as a few other items including training and keeping track of all the animals on said islands.
The previous Guardians often had animal or mystical companions and an object that acted as an oracle almost as both Max and Kia noticed though Antagonizer didn't speak awkwardly enough and was hardly a nice oracle at that. The last Guardian before Max had a red panda and mirror and the Guardian before her apparently had a damn Chimera and statue of Athena.
Whenever a Guardian died, the objects possessed to serve them lose their sentience and are often brought back to Zeliria into the Cave of Chronoho, Zeliria's shrine of all the fallen who had served it. There lied objects from ancient Mesopotamia to the most modern era reached thus far, the 1930's. Nobody had died yet from there into the present Earth time but there did lie new dangers that had not existed before. The animal and mythical companions were given a choice whether to stay on the Island or go back to Earth. If the choice was to stay, the companions would lose their status as second-in-command and relinquish it to the next Guardian's creature friend. If it was to go back, they would live out their remaining life on Earth however they wanted.
To be fair, Kia had encountered some of the previous companions who chose to stay. There was only one who didn't like her, Madu. Madu was a giant cobra it seemed who was not as big as a python but larger than a normal cobra. He hated her but from what the other assistants said, he hated every other companion after his master's death at the hands of Spaniard soldiers in a fit of jealousy. If anything happened to Max, she would probably become the same way, bitter and malicious.
As the dawn of day illuminated the tree line, Earth lit up just as beautifully as did the other planets Zeliria had rigged its sky to view. Cybertron, Kanjis, Aquatron; they all had their respective lights though some were different colors which could throw anybody new to Zeliria off. Knowing that was her cue, Kia hopped onto the nearest bed onto Ciriaco, a Brazilian boy and one of Max's earliest rescues.
"No! Off! Trying to get some damn sleep! I need my beauty sleep!"
Huffing mockingly, she scattered off and Ciriaco covered his head with his pillow. Kia then shot by the British soldier twins, Augustus and Aaron, and rang the bell that sat by their open door before sliding down the chute connecting their porch with Jaclyn's. Both boys shot up in unison with droopy eyes while Jaclyn threw the nearest object at Kia's quick form as she was one of the most aggressive of the girls and Kia knew better than to stick around.
After the sound of yawning kids and sleepy movement confirmed she had done her job, she hopped onto the tone maker, a large horn made of whale bone, and activated it. A bass-like rumble awoke the remainder of the kids if any were still asleep and she tapped her hand happily against the wood floor of the perch it stood on. She could have blown it earlier but where was the fun in that?
Awakening everybody was one of her many chores when she didn't go with Max to the past or present. But just as she was about to monitor the elephant herds of the Flatlands, the screens in the control room beside her lit up red and orange with a familiar profile highlighted in yellow.
Bendy was causing trouble in Chicago, robbing the Museum of Science & Industry. What for she couldn't imagine, but he was very technologically ingenious so there was that. Max was in 79 AD in Pompeii so who knows when he was getting back and nobody else was available to send in. Bumblebee and the Autobots were probably busy enough with Tigressa and the Metal Heads running amuck so...it was up to her.
