's message, ".first of all." on 13:15:23 08/17/03 Sun
:.». ok, it wasn't neccessarily the best thing to do, but after she let the four gods she could summon roam for a while, boredom overtook her again. finding herself randomly teleporting all over Kavanagh, the fourteen year old settled for the soft rush of the waterfall, setting her back onto the slick black rocks that bordered the tumbling waters. her gaze hidden under her closed eyes, the pale silver optics sat dully, as if waiting for something that would bring them back to the oriental girl's aid .«.:
Kaen-han? What are you doing in a place like this?
A velvety voice came from the trees off to her left, there being no room for trees on her right because of the waterfall. Suzaku wore an outfit that was more suitable for relaxing than fighting--and that was exactly what he was doing. The collar of his top flared out slightly unlike the stiff Seiryuu, who wore everything strictly--no wrinkles, no folds, nada. The sixteen year old body leaped down, landing gracefully without a sound, staying in the kneeling position he touched the ground with.
:.». rubbing her eyes gently, the girl arched her back in a circular stretch, letting her gaze wash over the cold area as she spoke .«.:
'Place like this'? I'm...not sure, I suppose.. This was the battlegrounds of the first battle we went into, ne? I've only been here once, but... It just seems so familar--I can recognize all the trees, the perfect swinging branches, nice flat dueling grounds...
:.». trailing off, the girl pulled her knees to her chest .«.:
Oh, and I'd appreciate it if you could get off that pose--I already told you; I don't like anyone bowing to me, never mind a god.
Suzaku laughed gently, standing and walking over, only to slide down next to her. His head turned towards the girl, the god using a slender hand to brush away the locks of hair that had managed to stick his summoner's face.
Daijoubu des ka, hime. If you are supposed to remember, you will.
Sou da ne.
A deep voice resonated from the waterfall, a damp, tall figure sitting at the base, letting the water rush over him. Seiryuu let out a sigh, uncrossing his arms and straightening his blue robes after he stood.
Lily-chan?
:.». the girl turned, her head tilting backwards as she glanced up at the figure atop the rock she leaned against, reacting faster to her nickname than the one she was given at birth .«.:
Hai?
Mou, well, I was wondering... Why didn't you let us out to fight that child; Briar, was it?
Genbu had a deceivingly innocent look on her beautiful face as she twisted a finger around one of her earings.
I mean, any one of us could have easily ripped him apart...
:.». suddenly standing, the girl all but knocked the earth goddess off her high, slippery seat. a flash ran through the oriental ex-princess's eyes as the pale optics seemed to lose the little colour they had, pulling her into the deeper reaches of darkness .«.:
This competition... I did not enter it to kill. Don't confuse me with him.
:.». after waiting a moment to make sure the spunky goddess understood her clearly, turning and walking off afterward without another word .«.:
The lavender haired eighteen year old body blinked, head shaking as a laugh emitted from her throat.
Damn, I'm becoming too much like Seiryuu--can't even notice things like this...
Genbu sighed, an aura of sadness hovering around her as she leaned back, grabbing a clump of earth that was within her reach and levitating it into the air, shaping it with a finger, though not actually touching the ball of dirt. Slowly, a small tree formed before her eyes.
His only visible eye twitched as he heard the comment from the goddess, though the water god merely sent a pool of water her way, inside containing multiple green stones of different shades. Listening as he heard her randomly insert the 'leaves' onto the mini tree, he sighs after the sound of her fingers digging into the small, hovering puddle disappears before pulling the water back and submerging the remaining stones into the cold waters.
It's a shame, really. Hime could make a drastic change in her life if she only had the courage. Sadly, my gift of lending others my strength doesn't work on her. Poor Kaen-sama...
Though the stones were inserted, the dirt wasn't exactly the most stable and required Byakko's wind control to remain levitated as Suzaku blew a gentle flame onto the sculpture, slowly hardening the item until it finished. As the dirt became ceramic like, one could see the flame god guiding his fire so as to not touch the stones and burn them into black.
Opening his eye as Byakko brought the figure into Seiryuu's waters, the water god gave a final rinse over to the tree, a rare smile etching onto his face as he picked up the item to examine their product.
It's perfect, my brothers and sister.
Hou...
Byakko's talkitive side seemed to shut down as he sat on the ground, weaving an intricate design with some borrowed water, a little bit of dirt, and a twinge of fire he took from Suzaku's fire blowing.
Lily-kun... She's not like us, you know? She's not a goddess, nor does she control elements naturally. She's only human, ne? I think...
Staring at the art he was creating, he moves the water closer to the dirt until they touched, well aware of Genbu's glare boring into his back as the two elements clashed until the dirt dissolved, leaving the dirtied water behind.
Earth fears water, as it erodes because of the liquid.
Either not hearing the silence that came from his brothers and sister, or just simply ignoring it, the second oldest of the group continued. His gold gaze seemed to pierce the ornament he was crafting as he clenched his fist, cutting off all the air that was feeding the fire, turning it into nothing. His gaze was already on Suzaku as his younger brother winced, hurting because of the smothered flame.
Fire...needs wind, air to survive--Take it away, and it dies.
Lastly, his gaze turns to the remains of the shattered ornament, fingering the water gently, letting it run between his fingers.
And water... Water is shapeless and can adapt.
Byakko paused to glance at his siblings, closing his eyes as he received no response.
Our Lily-kun is all of these, and none at the same time. She fears, needs, and can adapt. Her heart is strong--she just needs a little push in the right direction. And we'll make sure she gets that, right?
Laughing gently, Genbu shakes her head.
You sure can give a speech when you need to, ne, aniki?
A partially remorseful smile glides smoothly onto his handsome features as the god of fire nods.
Of course... Hime just needs a little guidance.
Remaining silent as he just listened, Seiryuu gives a small shrug, gaze wandering to the path their summoner took.
:.». eyebrows creasing together as she continued to walk down the barely visible path, the girl shakes her head as unknown memories attempt to force their way into her mind .«.:
"er...i don't know about you but i'm starving. i was thinking love-of-fish."
:.». blinking as she found herself back at the waterfall, though the gods//goddess had long since gone to look for her, she started at hearing the words in her head .«.:
+ what..? +
:.». giving the area a once over with her sterling gaze, she shakes her head at a ghost like figure of a boy sitting next on the other side of the waterfall--it was Briar's voice, there was no mistake .«.:
Who's there!?
:.». the girl demands none too softly; it was enough she was seeing things, and now there were sounds to go along with it too?? whipping around and locking into a defensive stance as she hears shuffling behind her, the girl's eyes widen at the sight; a boy and girl, about the same size .«.:
Hey, how 'bout we duel after we dry off? Not for anything, of course. Just to practice, I haven't had a chance to try some new moves I made up on anyone yet and I, personally, think they're pretty good!"
A pause as the boy nods, seemingly stretching. She watched intently as the girl began to warm up, pulling moves that spun and danced like the moves...she learned. Though it was soft, Lily caught words of her past; "fight in the dark", "pure darkness", "waterfall to block off my sense of hearing
, "touch alone".
"Dangerous...cool."
[[ooc::i have absolutely no clue why i used gold for lily. well, part of the reason was that seiryuu and her colors were too close and i was reluctant to change seiryuu's so-- err...i'll shut up now. ^^;]]
