Avatar: Return of the Air Benders

Zenji looked at Masuto when he asked to join her. She was about to say it would be best her for her to go alone as flying over to the island was ultimately the best route to get there and although fire benders could propel themselves into the air, flying that distance would only slow her down in the end. However, she never got a word out before Han was explaining that not everyone knew she was an airbender and he had only figured it out through their conversation. She nodded her head slowly and opened her mouth again to reject Masuto's offer when Zhou walked away from the house and toward her saying that they weren't going to split up. She sighed and lowered her head slightly, she just wanted to get out of the city as fast as possible. Finding and taking a boat that would take them into the middle of a crime scene was going to prove increasingly difficult. If she could find Diki on her own and fly her to the harbour, it might attract attention but at least they would get out of there in record time. The rest of the team, however, seemed to be completely against that.

She leaned against her glider and sighed, "Well, let's go then... We'll have to find someone to take us to Air Temple Island... which is going to be hard enough with it being under... investigation right now," She bit her lip slightly, "And Han here got his information for someone and I'm sure he is not the only person they are telling."

She moved her glider on her shoulders and hung her arms over it, "Let's go," No more standing around, they needed to start moving and the more they stood there the sooner people were going to start figuring things out. She slowly started to move towards the docks at a slow pace to allow everyone to easily follow behind her.

Nyima looked at him and feigned shock, "You have friends other than me! It is a miracle," she laughed a little and rested her head against his as they sat watching the group. When she watched Zhou walk toward the airbender, who had already stepped away from the group, she picked her feet off the ground. She kept her eyes on them, watching as the airbender slowly started to walk away, she wondered slightly if the rest were supposed to follow. Her hands moved hands slightly as she grabbed his shirt, "She's going with them right?" She relaxed slightly when the rest followed. She grinned and released his shirt from his hands, "Oh good," she looked at Rayn, "Things are seeming to have a good start...."

The Making of a New Queen

Anastasia nodded when he spoke of his mother and her own lounging. Surely she wouldn't be lounging, she had already met one of her teachers and he seemed content with keeping her busy. Which was good because she didn't feel like she could be lounging around all day. But she felt almost as if that was all Samsul expected her to do. Sure, she hadn't done any work today but she had been sick last night and this morning, not to mention she had been dragged away from her home to a place she had never even been before. What was he really expecting? Soon, she'd show him that she had no intention of just lounging about.

She walked her horse along with him. When they reached the seamstress's, she climbed off and noticed a little boy topple over his feet and fall to the ground. He started to cry to the other children's enjoyment, who started to laugh at him. Walking over to him, she crouched down, not worrying about the new dirt on her dress. She held out her free hand and smiled at him, "You know... I don't see any blood," the boy looked up at her, a bit in shock. She helped him to his feet before she looked over his knees and elbows, before she fixed his hair a little, "A bit of dirt but if you can't get dirty, it isn't really fun now is it," she laughed a little as the boy hugged her. She was surprised but it was nice to know that people were this accepting of a princess who came out of no where. She wrapped her free arm around him, holding close. When he pulled away, she grinned, "I say you are good to get back to playing if you want..."

Tsubasa and Black Ninja: Fairy Tail: Next Generation

Zelia yawned quietly as she woke and looked over at Trex, who was still fast asleep. She smiled softly, he was awfully peaceful when he was asleep. She shook her head after a moment, pulling herself out of the weirdness of watching him sleep. She got out of her sleeping bag and walked over to Skye, who she found making breakfast. She smiled, "How was last night?"

She nodded when the girl answered, "Well, the more boring nights are always the best ones to have."

She sat down next to the girl but said nothing more, knowing well that Skye wasn't exactly talkative in the morning. She thanked her quietly when she handed her a cup of water. She sipped at it, looking into the fire as they waited for the others. It wasn't too long before Skye excused herself to deal with the horses and Trex walked over. She looked up at him as he looked at her. She smiled softly at him, it was good to see that he had gotten some sleep in the previous night. She had been worried that he would have stayed up the entire night despite the fact that Skye and Flynn were already keeping watch. She was about to wish him a good morning when Flynn came out from the cart and he started to talk to him.

Flynn looked at the younger wizard, still a little sluggish from his sleep. He laughed a little at Trex's accusations, "First, it is here game and second, she chose second shift, thank you."

He yawned and nodded, "You'd have to ask Skye, I'm still learning after but it is great fun. Now," he said as he draped his arm around Trex before pulling him into a headlock, "Didn't anyone teach you to respect your elders?" He chuckled as he gave him a noogie, messing up his already scruffy hair, before releasing him. Zelia watched as he stood straight and laughed at his new hair do. She nodded her head, "Looks good."

The Making of a New Queen

Anastasia pursed her lips at the suggestion. The dresses at the palace were beautiful but they were also very uncomfortable... Had she been feeling as she had a night before, she might not have even been able to get into the dress without being sick. It pushed everything in and she was a relatively small and slim person. She could imagine what a lady would ate large meals and did little in the way of work looked without her corset. She giggled a little at the thought before quickly covering her mouth, "Maybe something less... binding... I can hardly breath in the dresses at the palace.... At least the ones I've worn," she smiled, "It's a good thing there isn't much to do that will exert myself or else you might have to get quite good at catching the fainting... princess."

She did her best to take a deep breath in the dress and nodded, "A simpler dress for days I'm allowed to be just around the palace would be quite nice..."

The Making of a New Queen

Anastasia continued to walk down the street with her horse, when Samsul spoke. She glanced at him as he asked her where it was that she wished to go first. Looking around for some place that might peek her interest, she noticed the people bowing to her. She blushed slightly and gave them a polite smile, bowing her head in return. When there were less people around, she looked at Samusul again. She shrugged, "I haven't a clue really..." She looked ahead of her, smiling. She wasn't hungry, they had just ate and she couldn't think of a place or really fathom one that would be in the city. Back home, you would go to the local seamstress for clothes and they farmed their own food. She wasn't really used to shops.

She spotted children running and chasing each other down the street and she laughed a little. She was gla that she had gotten that kind of childhood. If people treated her then as they were now, she may have never gotten that. She looked at Samsul, "Where do you like to go?"

Tsubasa and Black Ninja: Fairy Tail: Next Generation

Zelia smiled when Trex informed her that the horses were doing well. She crossed her arms in front of her slightly, holding herself. She looked toward the sunset and realized how long the two of them had just sat and talked to each other. She smiled slightly, she guessed it made up for her falling asleep on the train. When he started talking about shifts, she shook her head, "No... Um... I told Flynn and Skye to keep watch... I'm not going to let you be awake the entire night again," she smiled at him before he complimented her choice. When he brought up his childhood stories, she laughed and nodded, "You really should tell them more often."

She nodded when he said they should turn in, it sound like he didn't really want to. He was definitely starting to confuse her. One moment, he wants to just get away and the next he doesn't. All the same, she made she to keep her confusing off her face and walked over to the fire and grabbed her sleeping bag, rolling it out. She took off her shoes and whatever else she could to remain decent and not make it awkward. Then she climbed into the bag and curled up. Lying on the ground she looked up at him, "Good night, Trex..." She rolled over in her sleeping bag and closed her eyes. She took a deep breath before opening her eyes again. She sat there for a moment, eyes wide, before she managed to work her way through the steps of actually getting to sleep.
~~~~~~~~
Flynn nodded when Skye said she'd take the second shift and asked if it was alright if the put playing on hold to allow her to do so. He smiled, "Go ahead, it'll be a long day, get as much while you can."

He leaned back against the bench, still sitting on the floor. He looked at the door and decided to keep his eyes on it for now. It was quite some time later that he got bored started to Pai Sho against himself. It was 1-1 when Skye woke with a start. Flynn looked up at her, slightly worried. His worry only continued when she turned to look at him when she wiped her face and said that she would take watch. He couldn't help but notice a shakiness to her voice. He decided, he shouldn't mention it, let her keep face. He nodded and rolled out his sleeping bag, curling up inside. He pointed to the Pai Sho board, "It's currently 1-1... If you want to play," he smiled and turned away from her as she had from him and closed his eyes, "Zelia interrupted us before... but my sisters are brats in a good way... They tease me a lot and make me feel like I'm actually their brother... not just some rent-a-kid. They're great really... can't help but love 'em."

He smiled, "If you need anything feel free to wake me up."

Tsubasa and Black Ninja: Fairy Tail: Next Generation

Zelia kept looking at the fire as Trex promised to take care of the wizards himself. She smiled slightly, glad to know he wanted to protect her like that but she didn't want him getting hurt. She didn't mention it though, she didn't want him thinking that she didn't trust his abilities but there was so little they knew about Ryzo and Tye with there magic. Even with those they did know they didn't know much about. The celestial wizard would be the only magic they could be certain about and they didn't know her keys, so that didn't help any. She bit her lip as Trex kept talking. She nodded her head slowly, she hated to think that that all happened just to scare her. Maybe it wouldn't be so bad if there was reasoning behind it. However, just to frighten her enough to not want to go to sleep was sadistic and cruel. What she didn't understand the most though, was why Ryzo had given her that drawing of flower. He wouldn't have known that she had anything to do with any of this. She had left long before Trex got attacked and Flynn was spoken to by that woman. She would have preferred to have been attacked than to have had her feeling toyed with. She clenched her fists for a moment before calming down.

She smiled at Trex when he spoke of his childhood, in all the years they had worked together, these stories didn't come often. She laughed a little when he told her what her brother had done and the extent his family had gone to just to get him back to sleep. When he finished she nodded, "I do trust you... I like hearing about your family... A scared Trex, who would have thought."

She watched him as he stood, saying he had to deal with the horses. It disappointed her slightly, that they weren't going to sit and just talk but she found herself with her feeling running rampant on her. Maybe Trex noticed and didn't want to lead her on at all. Her smile faltered as she nodded, "Ya... Okay... I guess..... I'll going tell Flynn and Skye they're on watch tonight."

She stood quickly and nearly ran over to the cart, wanting to get away and prevent herself from making the situation worse.
~~~~~~~~
Flynn shrugged, "It is... at times. I mean there are some places that I see and can only think about how much Lucy would love it... but absence makes the heart grow fonder. So as hard as it is when we are apart, it is so much better when he end up in town together," he laughed a little, "Maybe if we separated Z and Trex for a little while, they'd realize how in love with each other they are and someone would make a move," He shook his head, "I think though, with Lucy and I having a public relationship now, it makes it a lot easier. Now, we don't have to waste precious time trying to find somewhere quiet to hide.... In The Fairytail Guild that is pretty difficult."

He smiled when she praised him for his move. The rules were starting to make sense in his head, patching together allowing him to get an actual feel for the game. He looked at her when she asked about siblings. He made a bit of a face before looking down at the board, planning his move, "Kind of... My parents died when I was eight... I don't have any siblings from them but I was adopted when I was eleven and I have two sisters from my adoptive parents. Both of them are older. I guess, they were trying for a third kid or something and things weren't going as planned. So when they came across me, they thought why not. It's been pretty great though..." He laughed a little, "They are both a couple of brats."

Zelia poked her head in through the door then, catching Flynn's attention. She smiled at them, "Trex and I figured if you two were going to be playing all night, you could keep watch as well. I refuse to let him spend an entire night awake and he refuses to let me keep watch, wants me over the weariness from the spirit..." she shook her head slightly, "If you guys do mind, of course. You could stay in here. We'll hear if someone is walking around and if we don't... they'll only have on entrance into the cart."

Flynn nodded, "Sounds good to me. You two sleep when and cuddle up to keep warm."

Zelia rolled her eyes, "We have sleeping bags for that. Good night you two."

When Zelia finished talking to them, she walked over to Trex and stuffed her hands in her pockets, "How are they doing?"
~
Flynn looked back at Skye, "So, do you want first or second shift?"

Tsubasa and Black Ninja: Fairy Tail: Next Generation

Zelia looked at him and cocked and eyebrow, "Are you questioning my magical ability. Tsk, tsk, Trex. You may not want to say that to someone who could levitate you in the air if she wanted to." She laughed a little and looked to the sky when he pointed. She shook her head, " I was beating you by a lot more than two. Thank you."

"Who died and made you boss?"

Zelia laughed and went to punch him only to have him dodge it, having expected it. When he called her slow, she shoved him, managing to knock him over slightly.she went to punch him again but he caught her wrist and prevented her from hitting him. She chuckled when he said she had anger issues and went to punch him again but he caught her wrist and prevented her from hitting him. She smiled when he told her to calm down, "Well, that's no fun," She took her wrist back and held it, looking at him as he spoke towards the fire. She nodded, "Ya... It does... I sometimes miss those days..."

She joined him in looking into the fire, the both of them, silently rememincing about the good old days. She looked back at him when he apologized about Ryzo. The smile on her lips faltered slightly but she ended up shrugging, "It's fine... Best that he did it now than later," she shook her head, "I guess... He was just a bit of a distraction," from you, she finished internally. She looked at him and smiled, "With him gone... My brain is able to focus on... the other thing... which I don't know... Well, I don't know how that makes me feel."

She bit her lip, "But... Back to keeping watch... I'll be fine...... It's stupid but... I'm kind of worried about going to sleep. I know that spirit isn't there and she didn't do anything bad while she was. But I guess, I was so focused on getting out... I didn't realize how terrified I was... That I wouldn't be able to get out of the dream," she ran a hand through her hair, "I think it will be better if I keep watch until I can't anymore and then maybe I'll be so tired that I won't worry about it..."
~~~~~~~
Flynn sat eating his food when Skye asked why Zelia and Trex were hiding their feelings from each other and attempting to do the same with everyone else. He shrugged, "They used to flirt every once in a while.... But once I joined... That slowly went away. I think that was when they started to realize they had feelings for each other... and then we were a group... it wasn't just them anymore. Maybe if it were just them, they would have done something but I think they are afraid that something will happen with the group. Before I joined, the two of them were practically attached at the hip... now, moments like out there... when it is just them are few and far between...."

Flynn made his first move as he spoke and when he finished he waited for Skye to make her's. As she seemed to not have any intention for making a move, he looked up at her. She was just staring at the board. He was slightly curious if she was planning her first move or was thinking about something else. When she looked up at him and apologized, he assumed the second. He just smiled, dismissing the apology. He picked up at piece and made his move after she finished her's. He nodded, "About a month after I join Fairytail... She was on a job when I first joined and then I was but once I came back she nearly tackled me, wanting to talk about spirits," he smiled softly at the memory, "We have a lot of the same ideals when it came to how we treat our spirits and being the only two celestial wizards in the guild, we became quick friends. After a year, we started to become a little more... But we didn't want to really tell anyone. She is a pretty famous wizard now and we didn't want anyone thinking that that was why I was in a relationship with her... I was happy hiding it... but it is kind of nice being able to hold hands on dates... especially since we don't get to see each other a lot..."

Tsubasa and Black Ninja: Fairy Tail: Next Generation

Zelia shook her head a little at his insistence not to wait and cook the vegetables. She handed some to him as she gathered together her own meal and ate. She listened to him as he spoke about the game that the two in the caravan were playing. She nodded in agreement with him but didn't make much comment on the matter. She finished her food shortly after he did and moved Flynn and Skye's off the fire, not wanting them to burn. She sighed slightly as she relaxed, happy to have food in her stomach. She looked at Trex when he informed her that he was going train in a short while and asked if she had plans. She smiled, it had been a while since the two of them had sparred. She shrugged, "We are on the side of the road in the middle of no where on a job, I can't say I have many plans further than taking first watch," she pointed at him, "Speaking of, you are sleeping through the night. You pulled an all nighter last night, so no watch for you."

She smiled and rested her head on his shoulder, relaxing against the man who she could easily call her best friend. She sat there, looking at the burning fire, the flames dancing and sparking. It was all calming as she smirked, "Although, I now have the plan of kicking your ass," she teased.
~~~~~~~~
Flynn smiled at Skye as she answered his question, "Wow... No wonder you've been destroying me," he chuckled a little. He noticed a look on Skye's face, like she was thinking about something other than her next move. He watched her when she looked up at him and smiled, the grin not reaching her eyes and stated it was his move. He didn't ask, it clearly wasn't something she wanted to go into and it seemed with Skye, you had to let her approach the subject. He nodded and made his move, in a few short turns, Flynn won his first game and grinned, "Thanks for letting me win," he winked and hopped to his feet, "Let's go get food."

He walked with her out to the small camp that had been set up to see Zelia leaning against Trex in a semi familiar way... He looked at them and stopped, "Hey," he spoke quietly, "I think we should leave them alone..." his look wasn't one of him joking about their confusing relationship. He bugged them about it, knowing the two of them had to feel something for each other. He looked at Skye, "They... don't get a lot of time being alone anymore... and I don't think it's healthy for the two of them to hide their feelings from us... Even if they do a horrible job...."

He walked over to the fire and noticed the food left aside for Skye and himself, "Hey," Zelia jumped at the sound of Flynn's voice and looked up at him, "We are going to keep playing.... Skye let me win and I have to prove to her that I'm a pretty great loser. Also, I thought it would be wise for her and I to sleep in the cart. That way if anyone manages to sneak in, we'll be there to hear them. Ears on the inside and outside, basically," He nodded to them before turning, "Night."

He wrapped an arm around Skye and ushered her back into the cart and sighed, "Man, those two need to be honest with themselves...."

Pretty good. Mainly just naffing about.
