Joey nodded. "Of course you can, I'm sure everyone here would appreciate it." He said.

"I haven't trained in... Jesus, probably since the tournament," Tom tried to remember.

Kira shook her head, continuing to smile. "We've all changed a bit since then. It's not like you look that much different... Y-You still smile the same, and your eyes are the same..." she trailed off, holding the frames tightly.

"O-okay, if you say so," Luke replied. He also wasn't sure if he could bear looking on his little siblings' faces every day, but that was another thing he didn't want to tell Kira yet, at least until she asked. "Many times I was going to burn Nate out of the picture, but I never actually did. I...I'm glad of that now."

Sage smiled. "Not to long of a wait to be healed," she added in, still walking in the direction that Melaney had pointed...she had her head turned and...

Whack.

...She walked into the door.

Melaney instantly pulled her back. "A-a-are y-you okay?!"

Kira smiled, standing next to Luke and looking down at the pictures. "This is after the pearl challenge, right? Y-You and Nathan got soaked," she giggled a bit at the memory.

"I'm fine," Sage said rubbing her arm. "I guess, I didn't see it coming."

"Anyways, let us keep going."

by Book the Hero Fri Apr 06, 2012 8:34 pm

"Whoa, you ok?" Joey said, heading over to her.

Several other people rushed over as well to help her.

by Big Uri Fri Apr 06, 2012 8:35 pm

"I know, right? It was nasty, but I wasn't as bad back then when it comes to water," Luke reminisced, but thinking of Nathan and the tournament only brought bad memories for him.

by Ra The BlazeWingPhoenix Fri Apr 06, 2012 8:35 pm

"I'm fine, I'm fine, heh..." Sage said with a wave of her hand. "Just didn't see a closed door."

by **Creation of Pokerus** Fri Apr 06, 2012 8:36 pm

Melaney's flow flared up a little, protectively. "I-i agree, l-lets g-go..."

by quackers are yummylicious Fri Apr 06, 2012 8:37 pm

"I don't know why neither of you let me go in," Kira laughed, leaning against Luke's shoulder. "I was probably a better swimmer than you two at that point!"

by Book the Hero Fri Apr 06, 2012 8:39 pm

"Kay." Joey said, after confirming she was ok. "Anyways, let's go.

by Ra The BlazeWingPhoenix Fri Apr 06, 2012 8:40 pm

Sage continued to lead towards Paul, making sure not to run into anything else. She was a little embarrased by that...with so many people around...

by Big Uri Fri Apr 06, 2012 8:41 pm

"I wouldn't doubt it," Luke laughed. "I don't know why, I was a bit of a hothead, as much of a coincidence as that was. I think I figured I could just dry myself off easily or something."

by Book the Hero Fri Apr 06, 2012 8:43 pm

Joey followed her, keeping an eye out for the young man they were looking for.

Jasmine was at her place, currently getting herself a glass of water.

Melaney stuck to Sage like glue, he Flow creating a thin layer of shadows across them as they walked. Somehow, the shadows were calming...

Paul, of course, was a couple miles into the wilderness, knocking over random trees in a large field.

Kira giggled, pointing at herself. "Ah, did I seriously dress like that?" she sighed exasperatedly. "I guess it's functional, but..."

by Ra The BlazeWingPhoenix Fri Apr 06, 2012 8:47 pm

"Ah! Found him!" Sage called out, pointing at Paul in the distance.

by Big Uri Fri Apr 06, 2012 8:51 pm

Luke nodded agreeably, not really knowing what to say. He just was shocked by how much younger he looked, and even the difference between the tournament and...the other pictures. Clear cheeks on both sides, no beard, no bitterness in the happy blue eyes... He looked away, unable to bear it.

by quackers are yummylicious Fri Apr 06, 2012 8:56 pm

Kira looked up at Luke, noticing that he had looked away. She put the pictures down at her side, brushing her free hand against Luke's cheek. "Hey..." she murmured, the happy moment gone and the tight feeling of claustrophobia returning to her chest.

by **Creation of Pokerus** Fri Apr 06, 2012 8:57 pm

Paul blinked at the commotion, turning to face the group.

by Ra The BlazeWingPhoenix Fri Apr 06, 2012 8:59 pm

"Come on!~ Let's build a swimming pool!" Sage said with a smile. She hadn't been swimming since before the Storm...Well...other than the Pearl challenge...was there another challenge she'd swam in? She couldn't remember.

by Big Uri Fri Apr 06, 2012 9:02 pm

"Hey...Do-D'you wanna get out of here? Bit stuffy," he asked quietly, eve though usually he was the opposite to Kira, and preferred small places like the treehouse.
