Kirito burst into the room where Wildfire and Kabel were. He had sped up the process of finding the two by flying to them instead of randomly walking around. As he had been flying, he'd been multitasking by reading the diary and looking for the two at the same time. What he had gained from the book was something he couldn't control. He felt like he was going to explode any second with anger. He walked over to Kabel fast and shook him. "Wake up, do you have rocks for brains?! We need to go." he said with a annoyed/angry voice. Wildfire looked at Kirito confused and kirito didn't reply to Wildfire, he was having enough problems hiding his emotions. "If they find us, we're dead. Now up and at'em."

The boy burst into the room and started to shake Kabel awake violently "dude! chill. he's in no condition to move right now. he got impaled with his own pillar." glancing at something sticking up from his bag she gasped "where did you get that." she snatched it and flipped through "she was right. Winter was right." Rye came bolting in panting and kept yapping excitedly *Rye's a wolf pup* and ran from one side of the room to the other and back "well, Winter's back. i have to go tell her before Elder Crystal hears her report." pausing on the way out "oh and the person you're looking for, her old name doesn't happen to be Fallon? does it?"

Kirito ignored Wildfire. If he hooray m stayed here any longer, they were dead. He kept shaking Label and at one point he stood up and looked actually wide awake than he had been before. Kirito was about to tell Label to pack up his stuff cause they wouldn't be staying in this dump town when Wildfire said a name while pausing on her way out. Kirito didn't move for a second before moving right in front of Wildfire so fast that it looked like he had moved like lightning, blocking her from leaving.

Kirito stood in the doorway and stared straight at Wildfire before asking her in a quiet tone. "What was the name." Wildfire looked slightly confused at his sudden change and started to reply with a 'calm down saying' when Kirito interrupted her with a fierce yet calm shout "Don't give me a stupid lecture, what was the name you just said!"

Kabel was very, very confused, and yelling. the kid had just suddenly appeared and next thing he knows hes being shaken as if there was an earthquake. he curled on the table, and then started to scream, all without his say-so. he didnt know what was going on. his side felt like it was tearing open, and he felt hot, sticky liquid coming out, but he continued to scream. then suddenly, he stopped. he was out, yet again.

when he had stopped and jumped infront of her "woah! dude! Fallon got renamed Falcon. she just kinda floats all over. no one will do anything with her, claims to be a witch which is silly cause technically we are." pauses "in fact just last year they tried to have her burn at the stake. interesting to watch but ya. not very fun. Elder Crystal stopped them" Wildfire paused "indeed, i remember that. Wildfire what happened to Kabel? never mind. Elder Crystal is on his way we have to leave. now" someone stood behind Wildfire and was dragging her away "let's go! we don't have any time to lose. Fallon will meet us there." the girl said glancing back at the boy "i'm Winter by the way. grab Kabel and get out of here. we're gonna die tonight if we don't leave. i was right they're tracking our progress. the Kal are landing tonight." an alarm sounded and the girl-Winter started to run

Kirito let go of Wildfire and immediately understood. He grabbed Kabel, put him over his shoulder as if he weighed nothing and rocketed out of the building before any of them could blink. "I should have known, Fallon always was smarter, of course she would change her name and call herself a witch." Kirito muttered to himself, zooming up to get a good look of the city. He then spotted Wildfire and Winter running south. He noticed that someone was ahead of them, waiting. Kirito sped up and then appeared a couple yards away from the person who was waiting. Kirito could tell it was a girl, she was wearing a cloak, and was standing, looking in the opposite direction. Kirito was going to reply to the girl when she spoke "Don't talk, there are eyes and ears everywhere," She turned and looked at Kirito sadly with a small smile "Sorry that I didn't come and warn you earlier, I was actually looking for you on the surface." She looked over at Wildfire and Winter who had caught up.

She then spoke ever quiet but her eyes were watching every moment they made "I can only teleport other if I am touching them. Even then, I can still only teleport myself and two others." She glanced over at Kirito and at the sleeping Kabel and then back at Wildfire and Winter "Though I may not remember who you guys really are, I have a feeling that we knew each other well before, I'm trusting that feeling that's it is right." An alarm went off somewhere which was more like a scream than alarm.

Winter smiled at this "uhh, ya. take him and Kabel. Wildfire and i will hold them off as long as we can." Wildfire lit herself on fire and put up a wall of fire "well? whaddya waitin for? if that's correct we're being sent off tonight. GO!!!!!!!"

Kirito shook his head "I might not be able to teleport but I can fly with using magi- I mean power." He said confidently. "Besides, if you guys stay here, you'll be over powered, like I was once when I tried fighting against them."

they looked at each other "ha! you underestimate us." Wildfire and Winter smiled and said "go already!" and turned to the wall of fire that was starting to die and people started to pour out of the tunnels, Oak, Sap, Jasper and others smiled at them and started to build a more stable wall. Winter glanced back "you were saying?" and wrapped vines and thorns around the mass that kept growing

Kirito sighed and then glanced at Fallon who nodded. Kirito then handed Kabel to Fallon, who put him on her shoulder. She then whispered into his mind, the directions on where they would met each other, and then was gone. Kirito sighed and then looked at Wildfire and Winter one last time before spotting someone in the distance. He couldn't tell who exactly it was but he had a feeling if he stayed, he would be trapped here for a long time. Kirito sighed and then rocketed into a tunnel which lend him to the surface

Kabel awoke to the sound of sirens and engines flaring. His head and side throbbed, and he was... upside down??? Yes, someone was carrying him it seemed, over their shoulder. So he couldn't see anything, just legs moving and the swish of a cape, or cloaca, or maybe a really crappy ghost costume. They were running through the forest, although it sounded like they were in a war zone, or maybe a factory. He moved his head around, despite the pain, and looked up. A huge starship, shaped like a giant football (American football) with large spikes that emerged near one end, but ran down alongside the ship, extending off of it, was hovering in the sky, while slightly bloated, conical-shaped landing craft were falling from it. Small crescent fighters zipped around with spherical, winged scout fighters and similar, smaller scout drones. Kabel started to panic, as he believed this caped captor was in fact a Layo Kal in the flesh. He disregarded his burning side and mustered the strength to

Summon a fist of stone, which came out of the ground and hit the Kal in the stomach, with enough force to topple them, but not enough to kill them. He wanted to see these guys in person. He ducked and rolled from the Kal, and tried to hop up, only to find his stone legs were gone, so all he had were stumps that ended at the knees. Wonderful. Instead he SAT up, very menacingly, and put his fists up, ready to pummel this son of a gun. The Kal was taking its time getting up, however, and was facing the opposite direction. When they finally turned around, Kabel was shocked to find it wasn't a Kal at all... but a girl. A human girl. A rather ticked, dangerous-looking girl.

Fallon was slightly shocked when she started to topple over. Fallon was slightly annoyed at this point when her face hit something and could tell she had scratched her cheek which was now bleeding. She slowly got up and turned to see the boy who's expression was full of shock. felt pretty ticked off at this point.What was with this guy?! "What?!" She called out "Never seen a girl or something?!?!" she asked him. Fallon was going to say else she stopped to get a good look at the boy. Something in the back of Fallon's memory stirred and she looked at the boy's face and hair before stopping cold. She then quietly said, more of a question than a statement" Kabel?"

Kabel put his fists down, a bit more than shocked that the person knew his name. "Aye, that's meh name. Though how someone such as yourself got ahold of it is beyond me." He later download for a second until the stone melted and came over to him, then he hopped up, fully legged. "There we are. Now. Howsabout you explain how you know me?" He put a fist to his hip, crossed his legs, and aimed with his other hand at a tree to lean on, but missed, catching himself quickly and finding the tree. He stared the weird person-- all he could remember from Wildfire and the kid addressing her was "Fall"-- dead in the eyes, trying to look less confused and tougher than he was. He cocked an eyebrow both in confusion and in "well this person is weird".

Fallon eyes slightly widen when he missed the tree complete. She gave him a confused look. "I don't know exactly," She said slowly, a bit of confusion in her tone "I don't know how to exactly put this but for some reason when ever I look at you, that name just pops up. " and then added while looking at her feet "I'm sorry, it's just that..." She said, a bit and then looked up " I don't exactly have a memory."

Kabel shrugged. "I literally fell from the sky in a giant metal ball... or capsule, ob-longed sphere, I don't know. Point being it's fine, mate, I've seen so much weird stuff today that sometimes I wish I myself didn't have a memory. But, if i didn't, then I wouldn't remember Wildfire... or the kid..." he shrugged again. "Yeah. It's fine." He clutched at his side, as it had suddenly begun to hurt again. Why had it stopped? He didn't know, nor really care. "We... ow... we should probably go, aye? That's what we're supposed be doin?" He looked at Fallon with his head cocked to the side a bit, questioning. He grimaced again. Stupid... thing. Whatever it was. He didn't care, he was just tired and wanted to get wherever they were supposed to Be going.

Fallon nodded. "Okay" She then hesitated for a second "umm, can you walk to where we're heading?" Sh asked him with a look at where Kabel was clutching his side. "I would teleport but I'm low on ethernano so I won't be able to go far at all." She paused "oh, you're probably confused. Don't worry, I was too when Kiro told me everything.You see the Kal sort of actually helped us in a way.These ley viens were put in our body for a reason. In the air that every life form breaths, there is something called Ethernano. Every living being has a type of container which collects in the ethernano. When we humans do it, we can't produce anything. But since we have these ley viens, we can use it to something called magic. And that's how we're able to make fire, water, an all that appear. " she told him

She then remembered something that she had forgotten "Since every person's container determines the limit of use of their power, not everyone a huge one. Some are actually very small. And after awhile when you do a lot of spells or a really powerful one, your body is temporarily drained from ethernano. And when this container becomes empty, the ethernano from the atmosphere will slowly go container again and eventually become full. Though teleportation is sort of a big spell for me".

when Fallon had teleported away the Kal had broken the wall, Winter and Wildfire kept trying to rebuild to stand as a barrier when they came pouring through. looking around they saw people bloodied and on the ground not moving. "Winter! the Kal are winning, we have to leave!" Wildfire shouted over the noise "no! we still can win." Winter tossed away an oncoming Kal with a vine and patched a tear in the wall only to be broken again in a matter of seconds "know what Wildfire? i think you're right"
"god Winter. you're stubborn as a yak. FALL BACK!!!" Wildfire shouted as their bashed and broken friends bolted,hobbled, bobbed, walked and dashed to the forest, the Kal following close behind as screams cut through the air when they were caught and cut down from behind. "Winter, we have to find Fallon, Kabel and the other guy." Wildfire ducked as something whizzed above her head

Kirito was a lost as he had been when he first walked into the forest. Sure, he could smell amazingly well and all but since Fal had teleported, he couldn't exactly smell her at all He sighed and flew above the clouds and looked to see that it was alright getting dark. "Great, now that I left those two alone and all of the others to fight off the Kal, I'm just standing here doing nothing." He sighed with annoyance and then

remembered he needed to head east, or that's what Fallon had told him. :: Meanwhile, back in the forest, Fallon and Kabel are talking together about what to do next:: Fallon sighed "This is pretty far off from where we were earlier. A good 8 miles away. That's all I could muster before you made us fall out of the sky. " She said to Kabel, feeling slightly annoyed before stopping "Wait, you called me Fallon earlier, how did you know that?" She asked him with suspicion in her eyes.

"Winter *gasp* Winter, wait *huff* wait up." Wildfire stumbled through the darkening forest, they had ran all the way to where they were now without stopping. Winter stopped a worried to the point of panic look on her face "Wildfire! shush, the forest is against us now. and the Kal are after us. we have to keep..." she trailed off as she heard voices Wildfire stopped talking too and listened, a boy and a girl were close by & from the sound of it, discussing something important they crept closer

Just then Fallon heard someone crash through the bushes behind kabel. She put her finger to her lips as a quieting gesture before crouching down and then moving her right hand, like she was casting something. A second later a high pitched yell came, followed by a girl running to them, hands to her ears. "Make it stop!" She yelled in pain. Fallon's eyes widen when she realized it was Wildfire. She immediately moved her right arm, making it make an invisible line. All of a sudden Wildfire stopped yelling in pain. "I'm so sorry, ." Fallon said, with worry in her tone. Wildfire looked at her like she was crazy. "That spell I just did....it's I made up, it's called split. It's a simple spell which I made which causes the victim to feel extremely horrible pain in their head, like their brain is splitting into two. " Fallon then looked at wildfire with concern. "I'm really sorry, I had no clue it was you."

Kabel stumbled against a tree, and had fallen in surprise when Wildfire came. He sat up, coughing. "Wild *cough* mm. Wildfire, what are *ack* what the heck are you doing here?" He stood up unsteadily against a tree, breathing hard. "What happened?" He glanced at Fallon, who seemed as confused as him.

Fallon sighed "It's one of the easiest spells I can do in defense. it's called split. It's a simple spell which I made which causes the victim to feel extremely horrible pain in their head, like their brain is spliting into two." Fallon's eyes began to tear up "I'm so sorry Wildfire, I really didn't mean to, I just thought you were an enemy." Fallon then remembered something. She looked at Kabel and his legs. "I don't know if I can fix those....but I actually think I know someone who does."

"So you have stated." He looked down at his legs. "In all honesty, I've gotten used to not having lower legs. Makes running much easier, and also I fit into tinier places. Oh! And I can do cool ghost-y float-y things with my stone n stuff." He coughed again, and noticed there was another cruiser in the sky, dropping more landing craft and spitting more scout drones. "We should probably get going..."

after the splitting head had stopped she stood up and glared at Fallon "at least you didn't get Winter. hi kabel good to see you're up now we gotta hurry. they slaughtered us and i don't know who's left." shouting and crashing trees sounded behind them "ukmm ya good idea" and takes off "follow me! or Winter." who face palms and comments to Kabel "you two are perfect for eachother" and runs after her

Kabel tilted his head at her, confused, and then ducked as a log shot over him, which was really weird but whatever. he ran after Wildfire, although her winding around trees and various obstacles coupled with his STUPID SIDE were making it quite difficult. "where exactly aer we going?" he shouted over the din.

Fallon ran after the three but stopped for a second to look behind her. She half hopped to see that other guy pop up... His name was something like Kiro, kirio? It was weird, every time she thought of him, her mind went blank. It was like something wouldn't let her remember him, and it was the same for everything else...expect for Kabel and Wildfire.

Kabel nearly ran into Fallon but stopped just short. He turned around to see what she was looking at, then looked back at her, then back, and back again once more. "Come on!!" He said at last, running past and tugging on her arm a bit. He didn't like the noises come from back there. Besides, the Kid was enough of a madman/wizard that he'd be fine. "Come on!!!!"
Fallon blinked, remembering they had been running in the first place. "Okay." She said and started to run after him.

Wildfire crashed into Winter's back "oww! hey what the... oh crahp." Wildfire stood up "oh hello!! i was hoping you'd stop on bye." a girl called from ontop of a bear's back "Winter! you're back, oh how wonderful. Wildfire, long time no see, or. short time no see. hahaha!" the girl laughed "now where's your friend....Kabel was it?" she look over them into the forest "oh i believe that's them now. wouldn't want to miss the family reunion!" she laughed maniacally as Winter and Wildfire scowled

Fallon ran up to where Wildfire and Winter where, only to stop short a couple yard away to see the girl on the bear. She glanced at Wildfire to see her scowling. Fallon looked at the two and then looked around, she had a feeling someone was closing around them. She saw Kabel slowly run up to where she was. She glanced at where Wildfire, Winter, and the girl on the bear were and then quietly asked label "Who is the girl on the bear?"

Kabel's eyes went wide. "No... no, no... no, no, no no no no NONONONO!!!" He backed into a tree, and was staring at the girl on the bear. It was that Pyro kid, the one who had obliterated his legs, who had strung him up in thorns... the one who nearly killed him. He was clutching his side, but he tried his best to look menacing. He waved his arm at her. "Back! Back!! I can and will hurt you, and don't think I won't!!!!!" He hated that face, and since it was the first one he'd seen since crashing to the surface, it was always there to remind him of the pain.

Fallon looked at Kabel in surprised. She then glanced at the girl on the bear who looked as though she hadn't noticed her yet. "She's an emery..." Fallon said, thinking quietly. In a split second she was challenged with two good idea. She could either wait to see what would happen, or she could cast a spell. The exact same spell she had cast on Wildfire earlier. Fallon felt like her head was going to exploded with all the confusion going on when she saw a shadow appear above the girl on the bear

Kirito grinned and plummeted straight down at the girl below her. the girl didn't even realize what was happening before kirito's fist was on fire and he came crashing down on top of her. A big la-boom sounded and a ball of smoke filled the air, making it hard to see. After a couple of seconds, and the smoke cleared, the girl was laying unconscious on the ground, along with the bear on the ground. Kirito was grinning and said "I hope you guys didn't miss me."

Wildfire was shocked when Kabel came out and started to 'no' himself adn was even more amused when he tried to make himself look big mean and terrifying, Pyro also found it funny and started cackling, but making no noise. Kirito came crashing down and what looked to be Pyro was lying on the ground face in the dirt "Bravo, oh and hello Kabel, missed me much?" Winter and Wildfire cursed to themselves and glanced up to see the grinning maniacal smile of the impish Pyro "and you!" she said motioning

Kirito turned to see the girl and looked at her, his eyebrow only slightly arching with surprise. "Right, I knocked her down, she comes back up."he sighed"This is what happens when I help other people out." he said, the last part mostly to himself. He then walked over to Fallon picked her up like she was nothing and started to walk away. "We're leaving, I'm not letting you get almost killed again." :: Fallon shook her head and and disappeared for a second before reappearing a few feet from Kirito Kirito "great job on the illusion clone." she grinned as the image of her on the ground began to flicker, a log replacing it instead "yes marvelous show. jolly good too. anyhoo, Raging River and the Kal have been looking for you, all of you in fact. and they've agreed to wipe me from their records in exchange for you." she jumped down as the bear came lumbering forward snarling "oh and yes, don't try your mind trick, it won't work on me. we're kind of the same you and i." she smiled

Kirito. "yea, uh no. I mean I have a feeling I should trust and all but no, Kabel and Wildfire need help, and I'm staying so there." She told him.;; Kirito put his hand on his head and sighed "You're such a pain." he glanced at the girl who the others kept calling Pyro and smirked. "You think you're all tough huh, well I doubt it." He then sighed "and his fist turned on fire "Come near me or anyone else here...." he said, a dark look in his eyes "And I'll burn you to a crisp."

Pyro attempted to put her arm around Fallon "yes yes. now then, shall we get on with the family reunion?" she vaulted onto the bear's back again and smiled down on them "Wildfire," Winter hissed in between her teeth "remember that trick that we used to do to torment the Elders?" Wildfire smiled "the one where i light the world up? how could i forget!" they both smiled

Pyro grinned "ok! gladly, but how can you burn me... when i'm everywhere?" she jumped down and started to walk towards him while others of her kept popping up around her. Pyro surrounded him and grinned all talking at once "i learned this trick from a friend." they smiled and laughed as a vine came crashing down burnin up as it went and eliminating half of them "yep! love that one" Wildfire and Winter smiled

Kirito groaned "Great, geez, it's like fallon but more of her, and ones with attitude." He said, grumbling to himself. fallon looked up with a confused look on her face "What do you mean, she's like me but with a different attic-" she started to say but Kirito cut her off "Never mind, you wouldn't get it." he said while he started to walk is way through the crowd of Pryos, burning each one he touched. "It might get a bit too hot over here but oh well. "

Wildfire was about to say something before he burned them "wait! dont...do........that........ too late." every time Kirito burned one Pyro, two more popped up around him, all laughing maniacally "uhh, ya. hey! can you do like a heat wave thing? that'll probably eliminate the illusions leaving Pyro standing." Winter looked the Pyros "might work, but if it doesn't then we'll have twice as many."
Kirito sighed, he was slightly par annoyed now. "Is you say so." He said and he stood still for a second before a ball of fire came from him, encircling him, growing taller and bigger by the second. "Surprisingly, I'm finding this a bit fun. Though, I'm sort of hungry now." He said while the ball of fire around him got bigger. It was about 25 ft tall and 15 feet wide when he released it, spreading like wildfire in a matter of seconds. Smoke crowded around them and it was hard to see for a few seconds before it cleared, leaving just one pyro still left barely standing.

Kabel was very, very confused. First, the kid comes out of nowhere, kills Pyro, who turns out not to be dead, then suddenly she's everywhere, and so is the kid. Then he blew up-- leaving Kabel with barely the time to turn his legs into a shield-- and now there's one Pyro. He groaned, sitting on the ground, dazed. "Someone... please tell me... what... just happened..." he rubbed his forehead with his palms, and stood up shakily against the trees. "Remind me why I hang out with you buffoons." He said, stumbling over to where everyone was generally gathered, clutching his side still. He figured he should really add a new rag, but the old ones were kinda pinning his shirt to him, and besides he preferred to keep that on.

Kirito grinned, "Well, I just blew some one up, and I'm just getting started." he said and then glanced over at Pyro, who was having difficultly standing up. "As for why you hang out with us, I have no clue, to be fair I really didn't have a choice because miss-I-want-to-be-stupidly-brave-and-try-to-help-out." he said, pointing at Fallon who replied "hey, I'm not stupid!"

"girls, girls you're both pretty. can we get on to business now? thank you." Winter stepped forward "Fallon, Pyro's power is basically illusions. oddly enough for some reason you can't use your power against her like you did with me and Wildfire. STAY DOWN YOU WORTHLESS HOG!!" the last comment was directed to Pyro who was now encased in thorny vines. Wildfire grinned "ok i can take care of her" motioned to Pyro who was laughing again "SHADDUP OR I'LL CUT YOUR TONGUE OUT!" and took a knife out of

her boot "I mean it Pyro. shut up." that only made Pyro laugh harder "Winter, can i cut her tongue out yet?? PLEASE!!! i'm sick and tired of hearing that laughter every single second of existence." she stepped towards her but Winter blocked her path "nope. not yet." Winter glanced back at the purple faced Pyro and muttered "sadly"

Fallon though for a moment before a spark of inspiration went into her mind. It was risky but it might work. Fallon then spoke quietly to Kirito who's expression slowly changed from boredom, to interest, to slight shock. Kirito nodded "it could work." He then grinned. He lit his fist of fire. "We have a better idea. What happened...if I mealted her brain. Not all of it, just some parts. Actually, think of it more like a rewiring. That way, I can change her brain so that she only responds to us

And when then won't give the Kal any information if she escapes." He said. Fallon nodded "Ican telepathically so that way, I can guide him where to rewire the brain." She then added so quietly it was hard to hear "can also, umm, sort of read.....uh never i'll tell it later." She said

Kabel leaned against a tree, an eyebrow cocked at Fallon's last statement, which the others didn't seem to have caught. Could she really read minds? He tried to think of something really stupid, and ended up thinking "THE SPRINKLE GOD IS DISPLEASED WITH THE POTATO PEOPLE AND IS RAINING HIS GUMMY WRATH OVER THEIR HORRIFIED FACES" over and over again as a test. But he was too distracted by what they were doing to look at Fallon and see if it worked. "You uh... you guys... sure... yknow what you're messin with?" He looked from Fallon to the kid, Andy back again. "You guys mess somethin up, you're gonna kill her, or at least the Pyro as we know her. I mean, I hate her as I hate Hell, though not sure there's a difference," he muttered quietly. "But I still don't think that's right. The human mind is more complex than anything we know, and not even the Kal figured it out completely. I very much doubt a few kids could fare much better. Besides." He pointed up. "We have more pressing matters than revenge. Just bag her up and let's get a move on. I can make a box but someone else'll have to lug her. Or I could make a pseudodudo do it for us." He looked at the faces. "A rock guy, golem, guardian statue, whatever you want to call them. I can do that."

Fallon cringed and put her hand to her forehead. Geez, she thought, clearly someone is thinking way to hard. What a big slip up. She looked Kabel and noticed he was too distracted at the moment to notice. She sighed. Who in their right mind would think up of stuff like potato people?
Kirito is having a hard time bothering to listen to a word Kabel says. "Uh yeah...do whatever." He said, while thinking of fire on a stick.

Winter stared at them, looking from Fallon to Kirito and back again. Wildfire looked at Winter excitedly "can we? please!!" she pleaded looking rather like an overexcited puppy.
