Ankoku Mentions: Shadow Ko creates a small rainbow in the palm of his hand and hovers it over a wilting flower. Trying to focus on that and not on Shi. Jumping when Shadow suddenly approaches, his power went wild for a couple of seconds and he overgrown the flower. He watches the weight of the petals snapping the stem, and he turns to Shadow. Hearing his question, Ko looks down at the flower with his heart ramming into his chest. "I-I don't know what's wrong." Shaking his head, grabbing the singular rose with the broken stem. Careful to not prick his fingers with its thorns. "It's normal when I'm around women, but when I'm around her, it gets very bad." Keeping his voice low, removing the thorns from the flower as a distraction method. |

Shadow | M: Ankoku "I-I don't know what's wrong. It's normal when I'm around women, but when I'm around her, it gets very bad." Ankoku said and Shadow chuckled. "Well that's easy. You like a certain girl, that's the feeling you have. It's called a 'crush'." Shadow said, raising an eyebrow at the kid, tapping his cane. "Which girl in particular are you talking about? That might have something to do with how strong your emotions are." Shadow could feel the flower near Ko that he was messing with. He tugged gently on the flower, willing it to right itself. His power kicked in and the flower healed itself as did the patch on the ground. |

Night | M: Kage Night saw Kage and smiled before gaining permission from Shadow to go. He started forward, giving only one glance behind him which showed that Shadow was gone before jogging to catch up to his love. Falling in step beside her, he smiled at her gently before saying in a playful tone, "Whatcha up to?" |

Ankoku Mentions: Shadow Ko watches the flower heal itself in amazement, and he relaxes slightly. He tries to remember the woman's name. He can't remember it, but her presence wasn't one to forget. He looks back up to Shadow, "I don't recall her name, but she gives off this icy feeling. Although it never bothered me much." Shaking his head, furrowing his brows, and he stands up. Dusting himself off, "I don't get what you mean crush." Shaking his head, examining the blind man. "I'm Ankoku, but I prefer Ko." |

Shadow | M: Ankoku "I don't recall her name, but she gives off this icy feeling. Although it never bothered me much. I don't get what you mean crush. I'm Ankoku, but I prefer Ko." The boy said and Shadow blinked his eye slowly. "Name's Shadow, and the woman you are talking about doesn't happen to go by the name Ice Queen?" Shadow said, tilting his head towards Ko. If it was Shi the boy was talking about, then...well Shadow couldn't help him and would probably just be able to say good luck. After Glory's death, the woman had turned as cold as her ice power. There was no softness in her, nothing that could spark warmth like it had before. Too many deaths he supposed. But if this kid was in love with her, then this was going to get interesting. |

Ankoku Mentions: Shadow, Cero, and Shi Ko thinks on the label he was given, then he nods his head. "I think that's her nickname." Turning to face Shadow, noticing the man's expression. "You have no faith in me, do you?" He felt his heart stop for a couple a minutes-already losing his faith with chances with the supposed Ice Queen. Was she really that bad? Not really had, but hard to socialize with? He shuffles a bit, only for the sound of fighting to catch his attention. He was getting ready to investigate, only to remember the blind man standing here. Grabbing his shoulder, leading him towards the sound. "There's some thorn bushes around here. Careful." Coming across his new master and Shi training with each other, making sure his weapons are attached to his hips. He seems to value these blades more than anything, but who knows, it might change soon enough. His cheeks flushed when he spots Shi, his heart skipping a beat, but he turns away to watch Cero. |

Shi & Cero | M: Each other, Shadow & Ankoku(ind) Shi smiled at the response before facing off from Cero. "All or just one power?" She said quietly, knowing full well what he was going to say. Cero chuckled, "All. I'm sure your tired of training with the phoenix." Shi gave him a smile that gave him chills, "Very." Cero backed up before getting into a defensive pose. Shi did the same, except ice started to spread around her. Cero's mouth twitched, a faint smile appearing. Only with Shi and Flame could he be himself a number of years ago. The Trickster. He hadn't been called that for a while. Maybe that was a good thing.
Ice illusions spread around him, seeming to mimic Shi's power. Shi didn't hesitate after his illusion spread towards her. Cero dodged out of the way barely in time as ice struck where he had been standing. He let a couple daggers fly before diving into her mind, seeing through her eyes a moment later and hearing her thoughts. It was chilly inside but he ignored it as he dodged her attacks with ease now. Shi backed up as if she felt something wrong before Cero winced as he was forced out of her mind. He rolled his shoulders, catching the cold grin she shot him.
Pain shot through him and he winced, turning on his pain illusion to block out the pain. In that tiny frame of time, Shi was suddenly in front of him, a sword slashing down at him. He dodged out of the way, drawing his katana. They parried for a bit before Cero sent out his pain illusion to Shi, drawing out her worst nightmares through memory walking in the process. Oops, that was not good. Shi's eyes flashed, turning colder than they had before. A replica formed in front of him and another beside it. Where he had stood, he wrapped illusions around him and stepped out of range of fire.
The pain receded and he released his power. He didn't dare call on his familiar. He did know she had gotten stronger with that animal manipulation power of hers. He circled from behind before wincing as she completely destroyed his replicas. Shi turned in a full circle before sending ice out in every direction around her. Cero jumped, sailing over the first patches of ice, landing slightly behind her and dropped his illusion. Shi whirled just in time to block a blow before ducking low and tripping Cero which had him roll out of the way. Shi shouldn't have trained with him. She now wanted to kill him. Just like she wanted to kill Sky every time they trained.
Shi hissed, her ice forming a large viper behind her. The ice viper struck and Cero dodged. . .right towards Shi. It only took a second for a dagger made completely of ice to form in her hand before she plunged it in his gut. Cero groaned, doubling over before she kicked him away. He hissed, rolling back to his feet. "That's enough, calm down." He said ever so calmly. Shi growled, her eyes flashing. Calm down, your fine, she was tired of hearing that. She threw out her ice, Cero dodging them as nimbly as possible before hissing. An ice wall appeared behind him before trapping him on every side. The walls started closing in slowly but enough to send any normal man into a panic. Instead, Cero was watching Shi. Shi had heard Shadow and Ankoku arrive but pointedly ignored them, a ice forcefield forming around her. She glared at Cero as the cage of ice slowly started dropping in temperature. The man was still watching her, but he now looked exhausted and in pain. Shi simply glared. |

Kage I M: Night Kage looked up as Night joined her. She knew he wanted to be around her, and he was lucky she loved him and tolerated him being around her. She rolled her eyes at his question, but hers sparkled with playfulness. "Im out here to get away from the kids for a bit. Gosh, really feels like we have two kids since Rapier started hanging around Eclipse." She told night, elbowing him gently in the arm as she was slightly bored. She had never really thought of having another kid. She loved Eclipse, but kids were kinda an inconvenience in her view. Eclipse had been worth it, but she wasn't quite sure any other kid would be worth it to her, especially not a baby. |

Night | M: Kage "I'm out here to get away from the kids for a bit. Gosh, really feels like we have two kids since Rapier started hanging around Eclipse." Kage said, her own eyes sparkling with playfulness. She nudged his shoulder and he wrapped an arm around her, kissing her forhead before releasing her. "Let's just hope they don't start getting into trouble. We'll have two kids running around the house like crazy people." Night said, chuckling at just the thought. "Well, at least its nice enough for a walk today. If it was raining, you would be stuck inside." |

Ankoku Mentions: Shi and Cero Ko watches the intense fight, gripping Shadow's wrist in nervousness. He was afraid of it all-having to look away here and there. Watching what she was doing to Cero, he had no choice but to interfere. It would be a bad idea, but he can't let his master die like that. He already lost too much already. He storms over, letting go of Shadow and removes one of his katanas from his hips. Covering Riku with lightning and Daku with fire, slashing at the ice shield. Cutting through it using just the sheathe of his blade. He kept going, he kept on slashing with desperation until it was nothing but small crystals. Using his rainbow ability to heal whatever wounds Cero may have, then kneels beside the man. "Are you alright, sensei?" Making sure he was okay, before setting his sights back to Shi. However, he wasn't mad, let alone afraid. A small look of understanding was in his eyes, and he cautiously approaches her. Forcing all his anxious feelings down, grabbing her wrist gently-ignoring the cold feeling on her skin. "It's clear as day that you need a breather." He tugs her to woods, and could've sworn that frostbite was forming at the tip of his fingers by touching her. "I'll take you to a remote location." He says in a low voice, not wanting the others to hear. Ko could tell that this woman was in pain and needed something to release it out on. Giving one last look to Cero, before tugging Shi towards the forest. Making sure they were a good distance away before letting go of her. Taking her to a lake, shoving his hand that was freezing cold into his pocket. "If you need to cry. Let your anger out, then do it. I'm not going to judge you, or tell you to calm down." He turns to face her, his rainbow eyes filled with stricken grief. "It's not good when you hold it in. I understand where you're coming from. About the others telling you to calm down." He shakes his head, "I'm not good at giving advice, especially to topics such as this. Everyone handles grief differently. Either meditating, hanging around friends, and so many others. It's all up to you on how you want to let it out." Without another word, he walks away from the lake to give the woman some privacy. Only when he's a good distance away, did his cheeks start to flush and his heart beating into his chest. It feels like he could collapse at any second, and he covers his mouth with his hand. Sitting down on the ground to catch his breath. |
