Arden, Katie and Adriana were p*censored*ing their time by the brook, waiting for the others to return from their respective duties. Adriana watched as Arden and Katie practised their Elemental skills, and she screamed as Arden splashed some water on her.

'' You moronic idiot!'' she yelled, and hastily dried herself by emitting some heat, ignoring Katie's giggles.  

'' It's just some water, Adriana,'' said Arden with a wink,'' What harm can some water do to you?''

Adriana got up, and narrowed her eyes at Arden. A flame flickered at her palm, growing in size until it became a fireball,'' This is just some fire, Arden. What harm can some fire do to you?''

''Guys...'' warned Katie,'' Don't start of now,''

Arden shrugged, and good-heartedly patted Adriana on the shoulder,'' Sorry, missus. I won't do it again. Truce?''

''You're such a sissy, Arden. Getting scared of a girl,'' said Adriana, but not without a smile.

Arden grinned sheepishly, and said,'' I guess our friendship is more important to me that some lame squabble,''

''Wow, you're so nice it's nauseating,'' groaned Adriana.

'' Why aren't we on patrol?'' said Katie, peering into the distance.

'' That's cuz we're awesome, Kates..'' said Adriana.

'' And we made some good-for-nothing excuse,'' laughed Arden.

''Like always,'' said the three in unison.

Just then, a familiar voice said,'' You guys are so lazy.'' 

( I don't know. Anything's cool with me, Reu. :D Forget the sequence, I say. 

Shao- If you want to. ^.^ ) 

(( Zozo's got a bad headache, so I'm sorry if this is fail.
And its my dad's birthday today~! ))

Calyx was sitting below a tall tree, rubbing her head feebily. A small bump again to form when she removed her hand, making the girl even more angry. She climbed up the tree, and just a few moment later, fell from it. "Why can't I fly?!" She wanted to scream, but came out a mere whisper. A mere angry whisper.

She banged her head against the tree then started to beat it up with a stick that had fallen down with her the few first time she attempted to fly. "See?! Your own limb hates you!" She yelled. "I'm going to tear you limp from limb and beat you with them!"

Exhausted, the girl slumped down against the tree. She crossed her arms and started to hiss. Then she let out a sigh. "No need in killing the tree, Calyx." She told herself. "Just try again." She let out a grunt, climbing back up.

Half way up the tree, she paused to swipe out a furry bush that was in her way. Wait, furry? She covered her ears as an ear-splitting snarl shot through the air, as the 'furry branch' fell to the ground. Next came claws against bark. "Oh gawd...Its coming for meee!" The girl wailed, climbing faster up the tree.

There she sat. On the tippy-top of the tree. She looked around frantically, trying to find a spot to land. 'I'm coming for you...!' the thing seemed to say as it poked its head out of the bushes. Calyx stared. Then giggled.

A small squirrel sat perched on a branch before her. It looked kinda....cute. "D'aww....Whats your name~?" Calyx asked happily. The animal snarled in reply. Calyx withdrew. Thats when the branch gave away and the girl went tumbling down.

"Ow! Ow! Ouch! Owwww!" She waield all the way down as branched grabbed at her with long thorny branches. She focused a ball of air infront of her, then angirly, put more and more until it exploded. not her, the tree. It stood there. Bare to the....bark. she giggled, then forgot her situation. She landed face-first into the ground. And if that wasn't enough, The angry squirrel came with her. It attached itself onto her face.

"Waaaa!" Calyx screamed, running around incircles. By the time Calyx had found running around in circles was meaningless, and after runnign into five trees, Calyx eventually got to Arden, Katie, and Adriana. "get it off of meeee!" She wailed helplessly.

"Come on Lisbeth! You have to push yourself! Now do it again!"Axel said, watching his cousin Lisbeth Goodwin practice controling her power. Libeth closed her eyes and focused on moving the rock over towards Axel. She lifted the rock and moved it half way towards Axel. "You almost have it,Lis. Okay try this. Go to your happy place. Maybe that'll help you move the rock" Axel said.After a while, Lisbeth fell to her knees. She was tired and sick of trying to move the rock. "Come. Let's try it again." AXel said. "No! I"m done with trying to move the rock!" Lisbeth yelled as she lifted the rock and threw it at Axel, who quickly dodged it and fell to the ground. "That was perfect!" Axel said.

Whilst the others chatted with Abadon, Abigor and Sumnor; Ariana pricked her ears at the sound coming from afar. She was the only one who noticed Calyx run frantically about with a squirrel on her face, and her eyes widened.

'' Holy...'' muttered Ariana, and she ran towards Calyx.

'' Stay still, Cal.'' warned Ariana as a flame appeared on her hand. She held Calyx tightly by the other hand, and carefully brought up her hand to Calyx's face. Calyx whimpered as Ariana singed the squirrel's tail, and shrieked as the squirrel yelped, and jumped off her head. Ariana shot a fireball at the squirrel as it scampered into the woods, yelling,'' There you go, you stupid brute!''
