S: 20 "I Just Wanted a Little of the Caramel, I'm Sorry!"

The sky seems to crash silently, the heavens holding a large sphere gently as it looks down on a vast empty landscape with only one person standing on it. The endless blue landscape holding little else but a single muscular warrior swinging a massive blade that hummed with power, as she swings the blade made of pure energy it sends waves of energy outward into the void. She takes a breather and turns to the bright sphere in the sky, she stares for a long moment smiling, "The new moon approaches, see you soon my little warri.....wait..." She squints at the world in the sky and has an uneasy feeling. She turns and speeds to a large crevice in the ground and makes her way sprinting through caverns and magical doorways, leaping over large gates, "Sorry Neti, I'm in a hurry!" The poor gatekeeper watches the woman jump to the great palace in the distance.
 
Inside the palace in the distance two women sit comfortably in conversation, one holding a large soft looking cloud, while the other seems to be pouring a large mug of strong beer into it, "This one might be ready!" The blonde woman says happily, "You can return and start anew my little friend!" The woman who poured the beer smiles, "Speaking of which, how is my sweet little niece doing?" The blonde woman looks at her smiling but holding back a smirk, "Well, she knows what a new moon is now, so hopefully we will talk to her more regularly, but she found a few friends that she trust enough to activate the mirror for her, and I got to see her sweet face for a moment!" They both smile at each other, "Oh that's wonderful! Let me know when you two contact her, I can wish her my love. Thank goodness she found good friends..." She is interrupted by the towering doors of the foyer being slammed open, "HONEY!" Her blade shedding light into the room, The two others look on in surprise, as the blonde woman jumps up and runs to her, "Dear?! What's wrong?!" She looks down to her wife with a serious look, "Something is happening down there! I sensed something, a presence I've not felt since in Talon. It's that guy..I know it! Get that child on the mirror!" The blonde woman places a hand on her wives chest in comfort, "Dear, I'm sure our daughter is fine, it's almost the new moon, we can ask her if something happened, ok my love?" She calms down at her love's touch and breathes. The woman with the beer smiles warmly and speaks up, "Oh Mistress of strength you are such a softie when it comes to our little Orri!" She giggles at the woman with the huge sword who looks at her, "Oh hello Nin....fine I'll wait until the new moon, BUT she better answer this time! Or she is in for a world of hurt!" Nin and the blonde woman laugh at the bluster of a worried mother, who misses her child.
 
The sun blazes down on the small island and warms it right away as the season approaches spring and summer. "So it's a chair you want?" the gruff yet kind natured man asked the excitable Morrigan, "Well sort of, I want it to be longer so that you can kind of lay down on it, and bathe in the sun." He nods and thinks for a moment, she then draws an imagine and his eyes light up, "Ah now I get you, yeah I can make a couple pretty quickly." He gets to work as she looks at him with an excited happy smile. "And what's this all about?" Amarabi comes walking up with Artemis as they look upon the chair being made, "Oh I'm commissar...coomish...having these chairs made!" She hugs and scratches Artemis, "Good morning mister man." The man making the lounge chair finishes and presents them, "Oh my goodness, they are perfect! Thank you Thank you Thank you!" She hands him a bunch of bags of drachma, Artemis looks with his keen eyes and sees that she hands him nearly six hundred drachma. He starts to whimper, and then almost cries when she hands Amarabi a bag of one hundred of it with a smile. The man who made the chair looks at all the drachma in astonishment and goes to speak up but is interrupted by Orri, "That should cover it right? I'm not sure how much I gave you guys, but that should fulfill my little man's punishment." All three stare at the demi-human in surprise and amazement, until Amarabi starts laughing, "I do love doing business with your unpredictable nature Morrigan." She kisses Artemis on the head, grabs the lounge chair and heads straight to the beach, leaving the three shaking their heads.
 
Sitting on a blanket in an adorable white swimsuit a proud high elf bathes in the sun, she let's out a sigh of relaxation. She enjoys the serene rare quiet moment when Drake and Orri are not yelling fire themed nonsense at each other. She can suddenly notice the sun being blocked from her closed eyes, and slowly opens her eyes to see Morrigan standing there holding two large things, "Yep, it was certainly too quiet." She chuckles to herself as Morrigan has a huge smile on her face, "I brought you something Zephy!" She drops the lounge chair next to her elf friend and other close by, "Try it out." Zephyria looks at the chair with joy and hops right on, and Orri jumps into hers, "They came out pretty nice and comfy." She smiles warmly at her elf friend and They spend some relaxing time reclining in the sun, Orri reading one of her books and Zephyria relaxing, as Ifegenia appears with drinks and snacks, "Iffy, you don't have to keep serving people, but those look good." Orri eats a few before Ifegenia knows what happens. Morrigan stands up and points to the chair, "You sit, and relax." Orri looks adorably stern and attempts to glare at her cook. Ifegenia and Zephyria stifle a laugh and the cook acquiesces and reclines immediately enjoying the sun and comfort. "There you are ordered to relax....." She suddenly looks at both of them realizing she has the two people who cook relaxing, and she suddenly has a panicked look in her eyes thinking there might not be food. "Orri....it's sad how well I know you now.." Zephyria pipes up, "Remember I made that big pot, that always has a lot of food? So you and Drake are safe....even though you and him devoured all of it yesterday..." Morrigan suddenly looks relieved and walks over to Zephyria and hugs her gently a small tear in her eyes, "Thank you Zephy...thank you!" Zephyria shakes her head and smiles patting her friend's back. "I need to train, Zephy can you activate Edea's music wrist thing? I'm going to run around the island a few hundred times." Zephyria touches Orri's wrist item and a Steel Stinger songs starts, Orri smiles happily and speeds off like a flash. She sings along to the song as she runs at full speed along the coast, "...Start the Machi, Start the Machi!" She speeds past Drake on his run and she starts to look smug until she glimpses at him. He is running with no shirt and just shorts on, the seeds Anaxa planted about him being a partner seem to roll around in her head and she turns quickly trying to hide her red cheeks. She shakes her head to knock out those thoughts and she keeps running past him.
 
Morrigan seems to be going at full speed trying her best to focus on running, and before she knew it was passing Drake again. She veered off to the left, literally running from her feelings and ending up on a hill where Alceaus was meditating, "Oh...." She lowers her voice, but realizes that Edea's gift on her wrist was blasting Steel Stinger music, "SORRY ALCEAUS...I CAN'T TURN IT OFF BECAUSE.." Alceaus sighs and deactivates the magical device, "..Morning..Sorry...want some tea?!" Orri reached her hand into her tithole and pulled out a warm cup of tea. She had realized that when you put stuff in there it seemed to stay the same temperature for a long time. She gently hands him the cup. He shakes his head and smiles, "Thank you Morrigan, it's good to know, now matter what befalls us you seem to stay the same, although you seem a little flustered this morning." He looks to her with concern. She looks around and back at him, "NO..you are...I mean, I'm on a run.." She speeds away like a flash, leaving Alceaus to raise an eye brow. He shrugs and sips the tea gladly and nearly spits it out when Orri reappears seemingly from nowhere, "Sorry...can you turn the thing back on, I have no magic." She blushes with slight embarrassment. He smiles and turns the device back on and the loud voice of Edea begins to sing and fill the air once more as Orri speeds off again. The monk sips the tea and shakes his head with a smile.
 
A large leather pouch filled with sand came speeding into Morrigan's arms as she caught it, tossing it over to Anaxa, "Pheww." Anaxa catches it as if it were a feather, "Sure you can keep up with me....and your boyfriend?" The hoplite whispers. Orri turns on her quick with a stern look. Anaxa chuckles, "The offer to ask him if he thinks you're pretty is still on the table." Morrigan shushes her quickly, "You shush! .....table.....I'm hungry." From across the way Drake yells out, "COME ON KID, KEEP UP." The makeshift medicine ball slams into Orri as she catches it, "CRIMSON IGNITION DRIVE!!!!" Her body explodes in a red aura with much less blue in it than usual, her muscles tone and grow and she launches the ball back at him as it slams into his hands, "Damn kid, you're getting better!" Morrigan blushes and forget to yell about her not being a kid. After hours of this back and forth Drake and Orri proceeded to challenge and fight each other.....for a month. Anaxa joined in once or twice and raised her hands in surrender seeing how ridiculous the training and spars were getting.
 
The last days of the stranded vacation Orri sat in those special chairs along side Zephyria, "Morrigan...you look awful and exhausted. Have you really been fighting Drake this entire month?" Morrigan turns to her dear friend and smiles, "Kind of, it was actually a lot of fun. He is like crazy strong." Orri sighs looking tired, "Zephy?" The high elf lifts an eyebrow awaiting for the guaranteed interesting thing coming, "I want you to know, that I've got your back in your dungeon house...or in any house, no matter what." Zephyria smiles warmly at the silly martial artist.
 
(hours and hours later) "I JUST WANTED SOME CARAMEL, I'M SORRY!!!"
