((Lol! No biggie. ^_^))

Aaralyn looked over Louis' shoulder to see the map with a curious look on her face. She stepped back, and when he said the word "adventure", her blue eyes lit up in excitement, and she shot her fist into the air as she yelled. "Yeah! Let's go!" She said, running off in a random direction. She came back moments later with a sheepish grin on her face. "Um... Which direction is south?" She asked, blushing a little in embarassment and laughing nervously. Mora sighed, stretching her back out, and sat next to Louis. "See what I've had to deal with? The Princess is hopeless with direction and quite a few other things." Said the white wolf, rolling her eyes. It seemed as though she had come to terms with Louis being part of their group now, and would no longer threaten him in any way.

((Sorry guys.... I cant do this rp anymore... Im like completely lost so i hope you guys have fun here and sorry to those of you that might have been waiting on me))

"Haha," laughed to himself, "well, I think that might be one of her charms." He smiled to Mora and felt that he was a little more opened to her since she's not growing or showing her fangs at him. He pointed to the opposite direction of where Aaralyn went, "This way is south. Let's get going before the guards come down here."

Louis began to flap his wings and fly a little above the two, "Let's get going!"

((Want to do a time jump? Or do you want to take over something while they head their way to Honou?))

"Eheh heh heh...." She laughed, smiling sheepishly as she flew up into the air. "Alrighty! Let's go!" Said Aaralyn, pointing and heading in the direction that Louis pointed. Mora chuckled. "I suppose you're right." She mumbled, her golden eyes looking up at Louis, rather playful. "She really liked you, you know. If she didn't, she never would have taken you with us. We would have just left without you. Be flattered. You're liked by a princess." She said, winking at him before running off, following Aaralyn.

"Eh heh," Louis blushed and scratched his cheek a bit, "I guess its not everyday to find out that a princess likes you...Well, hopefully everything can work out so that she can find her freedom. And maybe...on our journey I'll find what I'm looking for." As he said this his face all of a sudden turned serious. He then flew off to follow Aaralyn as both of them head their way to Honou.

((So are we doing a time jump? Or would you like to take over the story a bit?))

((Eh. I'm too lazy. How about a time jump? ^.^ Care to start us off wherever it was you were planning on time jumping us to? *breaks out into song* LET'S DO THE TIME WARP AGAIN!!! XD))

As a day or so past after Louis, Aaralyn and Mora left out of Luminaria. As the group went south, more of the forest began to die down and more sandy landscapes began to form. According to the terrain around here, Honou might be a sand tribe people. Using their environment, the desert, probably increases their strength and advantage to anyone that steps into the land. Before the group knew it, the sun was burning down upon them. The hot tempture as well as the sandy view made them think that they weren't going to make it. Until...

"Hmm..." Louis mumbled for a moment while reading the map, "...it just a bit to the left....and a step to the right...And...Hey! Look over there!"

Louis pointed at a landscape that seemed to look like a big sand castle. Up ahead of them were fairies riding wolf-like creature securing the area.

"I think that's Houno! We made it Aaralyn! Mora!"

As they went further and further into the desert, Aaralyn began to get weaker and weaker. Without any water around, water fairies wouldn't be able to survive for that long. Even the air was nearly void of water, and the sky was clear and cloudless. She wasn't even able to fly anymore, and instead leaned a little bit on the panting Mora as she walked. She looked up at what Louis was pointing to and saw the fairies riding the dogs. "Good... Look, Mora. Your... cousins..." Completely warn out, Aaralyn fell forward, passing out. Mora yelped and stepped back, nosing Aaralyn to roll her over onto her back. "Princess!"

When Mora yelled out, Louis quickly turned around to go back and check on he. He should have known better to let a water fairy to walk in this kind of heat. Because Louis is a light class the sun was no bother to him at all. He had to quickly take her into the city and hopefully they'll have water for her.

"HALT!!" Came in a voice as two guards on the wolf-like creature came in front of them, "You are trespassing in Fire clan territory! State your business!"

Louis then turned to the two, "Please! She needs water! I'll explain everything later, is it possible if you can help us??"...

---

An hour or so past after the guards helped them into their city. Aaralyn was placed in a water tub with her body within the water and her head peaking out. Within the hour Aaralyn should be hydrated again and be able to move. Mora stayed by her side as the two guards from before were keeping an eye on both of them.

Louis by the mean time was now talking with the fire clan's head master, hoping that they would let them stay for a little while...

"Oh ho?" The head master began to speak, "you can from Luminaria? I've heard great stories and scenery over there... Well, I think you two are welcomed into my city. Stay as long as you like. But as long as you're here you must obey my city's rules you understand?"

"Yes!" Louis said and bowed to him, "Thank you so much, Head Master Flarga!"

Mora growled at the aproaching wolf-like creatures, and they growled back. But when Louis begged them to help, she sighed and stopped growling. Her muscles were still tense, but she was just a bit wary of them. She stayed with Aaralyn the entire time.

--------------------------------

"Mmn..." Aaralyn's eyes slowly fluttered open and she looked over to see Mora staring at her. She smiled, looking much better than before. "Hey, Mora. Guess we got here, huh?" She said, swirling her hand around the water and looking sheepishly up at the guards standing watch. "Where's Louis?" "He's speaking with the headmaster of this place. He should be back soon. Just rest a little more and soak up as much as you can." Said Mora softly, kindly. Aaralyn laughed. "Don't worry about me. I'm fine now. Just a little dehydrated before." She said, patting Mora on the head.

Fallish thought about her home and her family ...they haven't come for her in such a long time...maybe they forgotten her?

She was distracted when the newest of the fairies had flown towards her. He seemed to keep his distance and Phen didn't take a liking to him, but then again, Phen didn't take a liking to most people. She smiled at him nicely. "Hello. It's ok, Phen wont harm you unless I ask her. My name's Fallish by the way" She waved at him, then felt Serena's fire wake before she saw her refreezing her tree. "Serena is such a gifted ice fairy. What do you think of her?" Fallish admired the individual gifts of fairies, always wanting others to do the best they can with their abilities, even though she has to try hard to control hers.

Louis then made it back into the room where Aaralyn and Mora was. As he came into the room the two guards that were watching them decided to take their watch outside of the room. Since Louis was able to come back with out saying that the had to leave of any sort made told them that their head master allowed them to stay. He walked over to Mora and smiled to her then looked down to check on Aaralyn.

"Hey," He said to her, "How are you feeling?"

Aaralyn's eyes lit up at the sight of Louis, and she started to get out of the tub, but Mora pushed her back down by putting her paw on the fairy's head. She smiled sheepishly at Mora before she answered Louis. "I'm fine! Sorry about passing out back there. Water fairies get really weak when they're away from water for a while." She said, laughing nervously. "So what's the news with the headmaster of this place? Do they know? Can we stay?"

Flying through the forest at high speeds, Anila sought out other fairy life forms. She would never crash into them because she could sense them ages before she got there and she had lightning reaction speeds, so if a wind or air fairy ever crashed, it was always the other person's fault.

Air and wind fairies were mostly a nomadic people, travelling alone all over the world. There were very few places were air and wind fairies stayed but they were always hidden away in the sky and comprised of many spectacularly beautiful citadels and gardens. The fairies who lived there were mainly families with young children.

Slender trunks of trees whizzed past Anila as she flew. No other type of fairy could beat her as they were hindered by air resistance. She wasn't. She was proud to belong to the race of fairies that were the fastest in the sky. Feeling ecstatically happy, she did several superspeed loop the loops around branches, avoiding luscious foliage and woodland critters with true skill.

After a few minutes she sensed a small group of fairies up ahead. There seemed to be an iced tree ahead too. How was that possible? This area of the forest was in early summer. It sparkled white ahead of her in the light. It must be a powerful ice fairy. Her interest caught, she raced towards it.

"I'm really for not preparing better," Louis apologized to her, "Well, the head master doesn't know anything about us yet. He was also kind enough to say that we can stay here for a while."

He looked back at the door where the guards were, "For now let's find out what we can and can not do in this place. We can also get some supplies here for our next trip. But for now let's just relax for the rest of the day." Louis then turned toward Mora, "You should make friends here too."

"Hmph! The wolves here are far too tame! I am not one of them. I do whatever I please. The only reason I stay with you both is because I have nothing better to do." Said Mora stubornly, laying down next to the tub. Aaralyn smiled sheepishly and shrugged at Louis. "Well, that's good. I'll be fine in just a little while. Don't worry about me."

"Nut, where are you, Nut?" Benny called out, wandering through a patch of wild flowers. Above her, a ceiling of jade green leaves rustled gently in the summer breeze as they filtered the sunlight shinning down, casting a warm, green glow that made even her pale skin seem beautiful. Butterflies flew pass and around her, rabbits hopped along a few feet away from her, song birds sang out happily; the forest felt alive. But Benny was unable to enjoy the subtle liveliness, her pet fox-squirrel, Nut, had gone missing.
"Nut!! Come on out!!" she called out once more. Her shiny, crystal-like wings fluttered nervously as she cupped her hands over her mouth and continued to cry out. There would be a better vantage point from up above, she thought, tilting her head upwards to look at the leafy canopy above her. Stiffening her arms, she angled her palms at the ground. Slowly, leaves, twigs, dirt, flowers, and any other loose matter began to twirl around her, the common affect that one of Benny's miniature tornados had on things. Slowly, she began to float upwards, nearby wild life and branches swaying in the unnatural wind. Yes, she could have flown, but this was more fun. Keeping one palm down, she lifted another towards a small gap in the seemingly seamless cover of foliage. As she got closer, the gap began to expand, looser leaves tearing away from their home branches and shooting upwards.
"NUT!!" Benny called out once she was able to hover over the tree tops, a firm purchase on the reliable trees.

Serena smiled at her work, pleased that she was able to beautify it. She flew to the top of her tree and sat down on the frozen branches. She looked up at the sky, smiled, and closed her eyes, basking in the sunlight. The summer forest is such a weird place. There is so much sunlight and not a speck of ice! But I like it... I'm meeting fairies I never would've met if I was in the Winter Forest. I'm glad I came, she thought as she zoned out.

The sparkling white tree approached at a breathtaking speed as Anila flew, wings whirring. Spotting a fairy by it, Anila came to a sudden halt as she reached the tree and slowly flew over to the sunbathing ice fairy. Perplexed, Anila spoke.

"Good morning ice fairy."

Serena opened her eyes in surprise and looked at the newcomer. She smiled brightly "good morning! I'm Serena, how are you?" she asked the newcomer. She felt her heart beating slightly fast, surprised by the sudden appearance of the voice.

"My name is Anila." the air fairy replied, a curious expression on her face. Why was there an ice fairy in this area of the forest? "I am fine today thank you. How are you finding this early summer area of the forest?"

"Absolutely fasanating! it's so..... full of life! In the winter area you have snow and ice. I love it, of course, but it gets dull after awhile. And the fairies that reside there are all ice fairies, with an occasional water fairy. I moved her yesterday and already I've met so many types of fairies... which type are you?" Serena asked. She was so bubbly when it came to talking about this new area, she positively loved it.

Drifting just above the tops of trees, Benny could see that one stood out from the rest. It was ice, or at least was covered in ice. It was summer so it was natural that this perplexed her. Forgetting Nut, for now, she started over towards the sparkling branches that peeked above the canopy of the forest.
"Hello?" she called out from above. Below she could just make out two fairies talking, one she could sense as a wind fairy but the other she wasn't so sure.

"Haha," Louis laughed at Mora's comment, "Well, tamed or not they are your kin in a way. Who knows, maybe they can help us out too if we become friendly with the civilians here."

"By the way, Aaralyn," Louis bend down close to her ears, "Apparently no one notice your six wings yet in this palace. It might help out us out if you hid two of your wings somehow from everyone here. You think you can do that?"

"Hmph!" Mora layed her head down on her front paws, her ears flattening against her head as she closed her eyes. "Make no mistake. They are NOT my kin." Aaralyn rolled her eyes, smiling at Mora, though knowing that the white wolf was serious about what she was saying. Mora obviously didn't want anything to do with the wolf-creatures that the fairies of this place rode around on. At the mention of her wings, Aaralyn gasped, putting her hand up to her mouth. "Oh! Right!" Aaralyn stood up out of the tub and spread her six wings out. The two in the middle shifted down in front of her lower wings, blending in perfectly, looking as though they weren't even there. She grinned triumphantly, putting her hands on her hips. "Better? Do I look like a normal water fairy now?" She asked, twisting from side-to-side and showing her back to Louis. The back of her dress went very low, all the way down to the top of her butt.
