[[ Sorry I poofed. But I had to go to bed last night. ]]

((well, that's luke for ya lol.))

Taylor smiled, too. "I didn't know I was this good of a chef." She said teasingly. ((brain fart XD))

Storm walked through the cafeteria doors and spotted Taylor and Luke. He walked over to them.

Taylor looked up and saw Storm approaching.

Storm looked down at Taylor. He decided to get right to the point. "Drake and Drakine are waiting for us. Follow me." He said.

Taylor looked at Luke and shrugged. She got up, abandoning the dirty plates and waited for Luke.

((oh and snoweh. the battle is 4 days away, the kids r going to train in a secret room Ms. Dark showed them that is under the gym, and um...that's about it.))

Luke got up and followed Storm.

((that early!! xD))

Taylor walked next to Luke. She leaned over and whispered in his ear. "The battle. It's only four days away." She said, her eyes giving away her despair.

((snoweh your short posts are rubbing off on me XD))

((sorreh! xD im not called Snowehfail for no reason xD))

Luke wrapped his arm tightly around Taylor's waist, "Don't worry. I will protect you." he said. and it was the truth. Being a werewolf, it was his instinct to protect those closest to him, and as of now, Taylor was all he had.

She buried her face in Luke's chest. "I'm scared, Luke. I really am." She wrapped her arms around him. "Just don't do anything rash out there on the field." She said. She pulled back, her ex
pression hardening. "Alright." She said, her tone changing and becoming more fierce. "Now. If we want to win this battle, we have to train. We have to learn to fight to the best of our abilities." She grabbed Luke's hand and started after Storm again.

Storm led the pair into the gym. He walked to the middle of the room, and found the small dove engraved into the wood flooring. He said the pa.ssword and the stairway opened up. He waved them in and started down the stairs.

((sorreh i'm not replying as often as i would. i got fen makin my prof. page, tryin to keep track of an ad i posted, and who knows what else XD))

Taylor stood awed at the underground training area. She hugged Luke closer. "This is perfect." She said. Storm nodded. "Drake and Drakine are probably finding more people." He said. "I'll leave you guys here. Why don't you come up with a battle plan." Taylor nodded and sat herself on the floor, indicating Luke to follow.

Storm walked back up the steps, making sure no one saw him as he stepped out of the hole. It covered itself back up and he walked outside into the courtyard. He had a feeling Xhaos would be here. He didn't know why. He looked around, hoping to spot her.

Drakine quickly scanned the different rooms by scent for any other people. Unfortunately, she didn't find any. Growling her distaste, she entered her lair -- room -- and started to dig up things from under her nest -- bed. When she stood up again, she held two, long swords in her hands. Both were made shortly after her powers materialized and they were able to channel her fire. Strapping them to her back, she quickly made her way back to the gym where the secret training room was. She was also careful not to let anybody see her as she stuck to the shadows; moving like a ninja.

((lol love the ninja part))

Drake saw that Storm had found Taylor and Luke. He stood in the gym, waiting for Drakine to come back.

((grar det's quitting))

[[ Nyu! I can only get on after school nao. The parent unit male has taken meh laptop until I can get my Spanish grade back up. ]]

Seeing Drake, a small smile curved her lips. Sneaking up behind the ice-user, she tackled up and wrapped her arms around his neck. "I got you," she hissed playfully in his ear.

Drakine shrugged. "These were made to fit my powers," she said as she rolled off of him.
