"Paul won't be able to do anything if he's still asleep," Zackary responded to the girl.

[Creation of Pokerus]

"Well someone will wake him up," Kaylee shrugged invisibly, "Besides, Percival can always stop him if needed until Paul wakes up. People can manage, you know."

[Ra The BlazeWingPhoenix]

"Before everything goes down the shitter?" Zackary questioned, folding his arms.

[Creation of Pokerus]

"It's not like things can't be rebuilt," Kaylee, answered quietly.

[Ra The BlazeWingPhoenix]

"Lives lost from the destruction?" Zackary responded calmly.

[Creation of Pokerus]

Kaylee was silent.

[Ra The BlazeWingPhoenix]

"Just as I thought," Zackary said to the girl.

[Creation of Pokerus]

"You don't have to leave forever..." Kaylee whispered.

[Ra The BlazeWingPhoenix]

Zackary chuckled, and if he could see her, he would be rubbing her head. "Many people seem to think that."

[Creation of Pokerus]

"No they don't!" Kaylee exclaimed, "They just dont want you to wreak the village until they can think of how to not make you wreak the village."

[Ra The BlazeWingPhoenix]

"Which will never happen unless Zackary can control his adult level flow, But, he still has the mind of a child, and is rather quick to anger, and thus," Zackary said with a hand gesture. "If insulted, retreats. That was the second time he actually woke up."

[Creation of Pokerus]

"So..." Kaylee just let the words hang out.

[Ra The BlazeWingPhoenix]

"What?" Zackary asked as he closed his eyes. A small current of wind surrounded him, shooting dust lightly up into the air before it settled back down.

[Creation of Pokerus]

Kaylee sneezed as a little bit of it went up her nose. "I'm a little confused..."

[Ra The BlazeWingPhoenix]

"By what?" Zackary questioned, continuing to manipulate the wind slightly. Before he could sense Flows, this was how he located people.

[Creation of Pokerus]

"I-i don't know..." Kaylee whimpered.

[Ra The BlazeWingPhoenix]

Zackary frowned, but didn't say anymore.

[Big Uri]

"Yeah," Luke nodded, thinking. "I'd like that."

[quackers are yummylicious]

Kira smiled happily, small flowers growing around her feet, reflecting her mood. She turned towards Luke, hugging him tightly. "Th-Thank you!"

[Big Uri]

Luke was taken aback, but returned the hug, noticing himself being put into a good mood. It must be contagious.

"No worries," he replied, a little surprised.

[quackers are yummylicious]

Kira quickly let go of Luke, shoving her hands in her jacket pockets. "Mom and I were going t-to move North right b-before the St-St-Storm. She'd lived up there before..." she trailed off, before shaking her head and looking back up at Luke. "Wh-What about you? Did you have s-something you w-wanted to do before the St-St-Storm...?"

[Big Uri]

"I had tickets to a concert, actually, was looking forward to it," Luke reminisced. "I wanted to be a fireman when I grew up, just like my dad was. Well, at first I wanted to be a footballer, but then I wanted to be a fireman."

[quackers are yummylicious]

Kira giggled a bit, smiling slightly. "You'd make a great f-fireman," she told him, before frowning slightly as if struggling to remember. "I...I w-wanted to work with plants...I-I wasn't sure how, b-but...my m-mom worked in a greenhouse. I-I guess I got lucky th-that my Flow was something I-I was already familiar with."

[Big Uri]

"That explains how you know all of those plants then," Luke replied, thinking back to the tournament.

[quackers are yummylicious]

Kira nodded. "Th-There weren't a lot of plants around, s-so I researched th-them a lot... I-I probably spent more t-time doing that th-than school work..." she admitted, laughing a bit embarrassedly.
