Crystal smiled slightly and nodded. "He trusts you to leave though and not run," She said quietly, barely audible over the sound of trees rustling. She lead the way back slowly and just before they get bat to "camp" Crystal whispers in a slightly sad tone, "Sorry for that," The she ducks under an over hanging bough and into the the camp. "I got dinner!" She calls to Shadow as she holds up her spear with the bird on it. Shadow glances over at her from his meditation for a brief moment, then closes his eyes back. By now, he was no longer in an Arcane state, and had revered back.
Aeroth looked up from Where he had his head hung and eyed her sharply upon seeing the bird. "No regard for me in the least have you," He commented in mock spite for her.
She shrugged and set about cleaning it to be cooked for them.

Storm followed her back to the small camp holding Shadow, Aeroth, and Narasu. His eyes showed he was deep in thought. What also showed this was his lack of attention. He continued walking, tripping himself but not letting himself fall. His eyes seemed clearer and he glanced up, seeing Crystal cleaning the bird. He walked over to her. "You want me to help with anything?" He asked her, his eyes meeting hers.

She was capable of completing the task alone but instead said, "How about you make a spit we can roast these over." Her fingers moved cleanly as she plucked the feathers, then used her spear head to clean out the insides and cut it into smaller pieces to be roasted.

"I can do that." He replied and back a little ways from where they'd been, finding the suitable sticks for his task. He came back to the small camping area and used his knife to begin carving the sticks to make them more suitable for holding the bird without ruining the meat. Once he finished, having taken good care to do a good job, he walked over to where the small fire still burned from earlier and put everything in place, now just waiting for the bird. He glanced at the fire and knew it was too small to do any good. How could he fix that, though, when he'd lost his fire ability? A fire demon had to know not only to make fire using his powers, but also to preserve its life so he would never waste his powers unnecessarily. He knelt by the small flame and covered it with his hands, which would confuse one for an oxygen-starved fire dies instantly. But he bent easily and blew into his hands and quickly removed them, the fire roaring to its former life strength. He sat back and waited for Crystal, sitting by the fire to stay warmer.

Crystal finished her work and looked at the construction Storm had set up and smiled. She set the meat to the bird and watched it as it began to sizzle and cook, fats melting into the flames and spiking in sudden bursts. "I'm really no good with fires," She said honestly as she stared into the beautiful flames. She curled her knees to her body and wrapped her arms around her self sitting there, not bothered by the cold.
Shadow finally awoke from his meditation and looked at the fire they had kept alive and the food they had began cooking. "Food," He said loudly, his voice echoing soundly.

He glanced to her. "Really? It's really not that hard at all. You just have to take care of them. And remember not to fear it. Fire isn't as scary as everyone thinks it is." He smiled softly. "When I first learned I was made to weild fire, I was actually pretty depressed. No one really liked me to begin with, then just to give me the element that was good for nothing but burning things to the ground. Well. You can see why I would feel that way. And it was all I ever used it for. But then, before she passed, my mother told me a secret. She said, "Fire is not only destruction. Fire is love. Passion. Warmth. Without fire, there would be nothing". You know, in fact, as long as you don't put your hand in it's core, it won't even jump onto you to burn you." He let his hand hover in the tips of the flames, not under the bird, though, not wanting to let the fat burn him. "Nothing but warmth." And his eyes burned with nothing but passion as he spoke.

Crystal gazed at Storm with wonder, seeing a part of him she hadn't before, the words touching her gently, but then she remembered something and her blue eyes glinted away from him slightly. "I never had a mother. I was orphaned at birth and lived on my own. Learned to raise myself and do things on my own." She held her hand out and let water collect into her palm, then it lifted up and became a liquid ball hovering just above her hand and said, "As for fire, I am your polar opposite remember. Elemental Arcane water. Fire doesn't burn, but I can never handle it either." She let the water slowly run through her fingers to soak the earth, then evaporate against the fire's heat.

He pointed at the evaporating water. "But it does hurt you. Fire hurts water. Water hurts fire. That's why I'm telling you-" his gaze went to the flames he let dance around his fingers, wishing he could do more with it "fire isn't all bad." He sighed and looked back at her. "You think the bird is done?"

Crystal understood him. He put he hand on his arm and said quiet enough not for Shadow to hear, "your not all bad either." She then picked a piece of bird from the fire and popped it in her mouth. It was hot, but tasted good in her mouth. "Yup, it's done," She said smiling. Shadow quickly pulled piece from the fire for himself, careful of the heat and began eating it gratefully. "This is good. I'm glad I asked you two to do it. I'd have ruined it," Shadow said.
Crystal took her share and ate it as well, Aeroth glancing at them and saying mockly, "How my stomach churns at your cannibalism."

Storm leaned back, propping himself up by putting his arms behind him, his hands on the ground. At ease. He smirked at Aeroth's comment. "I've seen dragons do worse." He said with a light tone. He kept his eyes on the fire and he made no move to take anything from the bird, thoughts playing in his mind, though he seemed hungry.

Aeroth chuckled lightly at Storm and closed his sharp eyes to rest. "If you don't get your I'll get it before it burns," Shadow said glaring playfully at Storm form across the fire. "You, you're going to get fat eating like that Shadow," Crystal retorted, eating another piece of hers.

Storm glanced up at Shadow and forced a smile. "Uh, you go ahead and have it. I'm not hungry." He stood and dusted off his pants, reverting to his thoughts. He didn't want to remind them. He hadn't even wanted them to know when they'd found, so why remind them? He could go a while without it. It surely wouldn't kill him. Besides, without his powers, even if his other side came out for lack of it, he wouldn't be able to do much harm. "I'm gonna go for a walk, ok?" He walked arouned the fire and headed for the trees, going for the path he and Crystal had taken earlier, wanting to follow something he halfway knew.

Shadow gave a lopsided look at Storm as he left into the forest, but took the food anyways. "Well, more food for me I guess," He said, but his tone wasn't as happy as his words. Crystal cast a lonely look after him, but didn't say anything.
After they had finished their food, both Crystal and Shadow lay down near the fire and rest for the night Shadow drifted half awake and half asleep, Crystal quickly falling asleep.

Storm walked aimlessly, but not so far as to lose the only warmth he had, which was given by Shadow. The night continued to grow colder, though, forcing Storm to continue walking closer to the camp until he finally just decided to come back. The walk and the forest around him had put him more at comfort but he couldn't shake his thirst he felt.
When he got back in the camp, he stayed quiet, seeing everyone in the beginnings of getting sleep, aside from Crystal who had already succeeded in slumber. He took a seat beside the great black dragon who was his own and tried to gain more warmth from him, knowing it would not be wise for him to sleep and let his body become ever colder with slower blood flow.

Shadow, half asleep spoke just before drifting off. "You know, you don't have to be so closed. Especially to someone here," He said referring to Crystal but never saying it, then he was out, his element still casting warmth to Storm ever through slumber.

As the sun rose, Storm laid on top of Narasu's head, his eyes full of energy. He seemed in a very playful mood. As the others woke, he indicated the fire that still burned. "I didn't know if we'd need it, so I kept it alive until now." He seemed to be proud of his accomplishment. Regardless of his energy, his eyes were turning more crimson, showing his thirst. "So, what's the plan for today, hm?" He jumped into a sitting position, excitement rolling through him.
Narasu rolled his eyes. It's already setting in. he said to himself with a sigh.

Crystal sat up, rubbing her eyes sleepily as she adjusted to the light. The forest had grown warmer thanks to the sun and the fire as well. Shadow thought for a moment and said cautiously, "Well, we were headed to the kingdom for you, but now I'm not sure. Something about proving your worth." He stood from sitting ans stretched gratefully, happy to feel the warmth of the sun through his bones.
Aeroth was no where in sight, having taken off sometime during the night for his own reasons.

Storm laughed and jumped off Narasu, landing on his feet. "Proving my worth, huh? And what exactly do I need to be proving and to whom?" He laughed again and ran to the fire, skidding to it and landing in a sitting position near it. "Come come! It's all kinds of warm!" He held his hands to it but not as close as he had the day before.

Crystal, coming more awake, now stood and stretched as well. "I'll pass. I would like to find some safe water to jump in though," She said. Shadow eyed Storm slightly and said, "I don't know. That's what we are here to help with." Shadow said. He let his skepticism go and began doing simple forms both armed and unarmed and continued speaking between breaths. "Well, Wither way, I still don't know what we should do, or where we should go. It's all up in the air."

Storm's eyes gleamed, not disheartened, and he ran over to Shadow, his voice filled with enthusiasm. "We're just gonna wander, then? That's so cool! You think we'll find anything exciting? What if we found a village! An abandoned village! Could you imagine how much exploring we could do?!" He spun on his heel and let his eyes travel the forest. "Or maybe we'll find a cave! With a huge bear in it!" He laughed and rushed back over to the fire.
