[i]"Sssssst."[/i]

One of the fire salamanders wrapped its tail protectively around Lavinia's leg, no doubt warning her that something was up. The summoner fondly looked down at her creatures, running a hand over one of them. While they were entirely made of fire, they never burned her. Instead, they radiated a soft ticklish warmth. She warily glanced behind her, expecting the punk to be there. But, there was no one, for now. From what her salamanders were telling her; another summoned creature was fairly close to them. She shivered a bit; the sense was familiar but strangely dark. 

She had thought that there were no summoners in the Addario family, since she never actually saw one. Yet, one of those two was of her magic core. Lavinia's interest was piqued. What kind of creatures could he summon? And how well could he control them? It took her most of her life to tame the elemental salamanders. First time she summoned them, they had almost burned down her house. Second time, they flooded the whole block with a good inch of water. Lavinia chuckled, suddenly remembering her past. Nostalgia settled in and those repressed memories were shoved back in. She continued to walk slowly, as if she were waiting for the pair to find her, much to her creatures dismay. 

[i]"Kreeeeeet![/i] 

The fire salamanders shrieked, sparks flying from their bodies as they leaped up, twisting their bodies mid air. Lavinia turned around, eyes widening as she caught the sight of half a body rounding the corner. They found her, much quicker than she had anticipated. She stopped, snapping her fingers as she mentally commanded her creatures to stay back. 

They hadn't used that creature to attack her from earlier. Perhaps she could end this neatly...

"So, are you planning to fight me head-on?" she teasingly asked. Her head began to slightly throb - it wouldn't be long till she would have to call of the fire salamanders.
