"Hunting. . . your brother?" Kayla repeated questionly. "Did he do something bad? Wait, what am I saying? Of course he must have done something bad. That is, unless if you just hate him for no reason. Which will just make no sense at all." Kayla thought over what she had just said. "Hm, I hope I made sense. Since I seem to not be doing that much lately."

Sovelis sighed and sat down, crossing his legs Indian-style and crossing his arms. "Your still mad at me, aren't you?" he said, looking at Kayla. "And I'm guessing that an apology isn't what your looking for. Is it?" the Tempest looked down at the grass, wanting this entire mess to go away. He didn't think that girls could be so...fickle... It was like they were a different species.

"If I was talking to you, I would say that I'm am surprised that Cathy hasn't beaten you 'till you couldn't see the next sunrise," Kayla glanced at him. She looked away quickly. "And I would say that what you did was stupid and the worst thing that you have ever done. Regardless of anything else. Even your demon buddy did smarter things than that."

OoC: My ex asked out my best friend and then started calling me all these bad things, and you should have seen what my friends did to him. Man, he was scared all week.

Ryk looked at the newcomer, stangely. "Do I know you, spikey?" he asked, his eyebrow raised at the strange mage. "Only mages I know are Cheeseface, and little shorty." he said, pointing at Sovelis for the second name.

"Short?" Sovelis looked at Ryk. "SHORT?!?! WHO THE HELL ARE YOU CALLING SHORT? I'M FIVE FOOT TEN!!!" he shouted, his anger exploding as he swung his left arm around, aiming the metal fist at Ryk's face. "THIS IS WHAT YOU GET FOR CALLING ME SHORT!!!

OoC: Who's cheeseface?

Arrika sighed inwardly, fully expecting Ryk to send Sovelis' arm back at his own face or the like. "You're taller than me," Arrika said, hoping to make the Tempest feel a little better. "And you've probably got no right to call anyone short, Ryk, since you're in the body of what, a 14 year old?"

Ryk held one of his gauntlets up, Sovelis' metal arm just making a dull *clang* when it had hit. "Listen, girlie, one of your little friends knew of the...Erricks? Eh, never remembered their name myself, but where I came from, Sovvy looks like one of them, the shorter one. And, it's 13 years old, love, with something that matches that of a man beyond his age." he said.

OOC: Orph.

"Elric...the Elric Brothers...I've meet them too Ryk. And I'm not anything like Edward." the Tempest said, stepping back. "One of these days, I want to fight you myself Ryk. You and me. I've been wanting to try out a few new techniques I've been working on." he smiled, looking at the possessed Worru. "And we don't need to know about your weapon of mass destruction... Alright?"

Ryk smirked. "We'll get our fight soon enough. Some three guys have been following Worru, and once they get him...That, and it isn't mine. Worru's." he said, before taking amoment to mumble something under his breath, then climb back up into the tree, getting back to his rest.

Kayla glanced between the two boys and sighed. She knew that boys always had compitions, but this was just. . . stupid! She knew that Soteto and Kerokee fought all the time like Cathy and Kerokee, but she never knew why. Then again, Soteto is weird that way. "Uh, is there something that I'm missing out of?"

Ryk looked back down at the girl, having actually forgotten about her once he started talking to Arrika and Sovelis. "Nope. Sovvy is just jealous that a kid some thirty-something years younger than him is bigger, but I'm done talking about that. I think I supplied enough for at least three wet dreams by now." he said, turning back to look through the tree's foliage.

"I am not jealous!" Sovelis shouted up at Ryk. "I'm rather content with the ability to walk around and not have to worry about tripping over myself." he said, sitting back down in the grass. "So, Kayla. Your going back soon, aren't you?" the red-cloaked mage asked, casting a wary look at the girl. "You know, I'll miss you if you go, but I won't stop you from leaving if thats what you want..."

Sovelis pulled a small book out of his satchel, opened it, and began to read from it's faded, yellowing pages. It was leather bound, like many of the books he owned, but this one seemed older than any other book that he had been seen reading from.

Kayla frowned and sat down next to Sovelis and thought about what he had just said. Leaving? For what? And then it came to her, the day of Tantera's death was coming up. Anteria, Enterio, and Sin would be coming soon to take her back to the Ash Village to be a ninja for a week since all three of their birthday are all in an order. And Tantera had died a day before her birthday.

"Yeah, I guess I will be," Kayla muttered, almost whispering.

OoC: Just to explain, Tantera basicly raised Kayla, but only for two years. She died before her 18th birthday, trying to protect Kayla's life.

Ryk thought over what Sovelis had said, also acknowledging the small part about Kayla and her trip. "That reminds me, Sovvy. Labufa isn't angry with you, she knows full well she was away for thirteen years, and that someone with looks like yours would've already found someone. from what I know, that comes up to a current four."

Kayla got back to her feet and brushed off some dirt that had found its way to her skirt. "Well, I hope I'm not disappointing anyone, but I must get going. My friends might be here anytime soon, and I don't want them to get lost and then blame it all on me." She waved good bye to the group and walked off to the courtyard.

OoC: Hate to end it so soon, but I'm dieing to show Anteria, Enterio, and Sin. I love how Anteria acts towards Kayla. She just has no boundries. XD
