The Duel (Lennia)

[Damian]

"You're welcome." he said, and then, "Well, I thought it was cool." referring to her eyes. "I've never seen someone's eyes change color before." Damian told her. "How did you do it?"

[Lennia Silverwind]

Len looked back up to the sky. "Well I think is happens when I am in pain during a fight or feel like the other one might be stronger. When it does usually it isn't just my eyes but my hair and attitude. My hair becomes blond as my eyes turn red. When it happens I become very aggressive and enjoy watching pain" She said shivering at the thought.

[Damian]

Damian shivered too. "Jeez." he said. "Why does that happen to you?" he asked. He still thought it was kind of cool. Not the pain enjoyment part, but the eye color thing was still pretty awesome, or at least he thought so, anyway. The sun warmed the top of his head, and he closed his eyes happily. It felt good to be in the sun's rays.

[Lennia Silverwind]

Len shrugged her shoulders. "I think is has to do with my kind. Wind Demons I mean. I don't know much about them just that they once served Tash. They didn't like working for him so ran. I believe the other side was their side that Tash controlled and the normal side is their freed side" She said

[Damian]

"That makes sense." he said, falling down against the green blades of grass and stretching out, putting his hands behind his head and looking up at the sun. "Thanks for dueling," Damian said. "I had fun. I wanna do it again some time."

[Lennia Silverwind]

Len smiled and hugged her knees as she stared at the sky. "Yeah I will be looking froward to a rematch" She said. "You know, you never really told me about where you came from" She said.

[Damian]

"Where I come from? Just a regular Fire Village, nothing really special. Dad was part of the military, and Mom stayed home to take care of me." Damian shrugged. "Why do you ask?"

[Lennia Silverwind]

Len just smiled. "Well you know more about me than I know about you. Just curious. So what was your family like?" She asked.

[Damian]

Damian smiled back. "They're nice folk." he told her. "Mom's always worried about Papa and I, bein' soldiers and all. Always asks if there was any trouble, and then covers her ears and says that she don't wanna know." he laughed, remembering his mother. "Dad's a good guy. He's kinda strict, but he's soft underneath once you get to know 'im." The Fire Spirit sat up. "Would you like to meet them? I could show you, if you like."

[Lennia Silverwind]

Len smile as Damian described his family. It was a kind of shock when he asked her if she would like to meet them. "Yes, if that isn't too much trouble. I would love to meet your parents" She said.

[Damian]

Damian smiled. "Sure thing!" he said, and stood up. He held out his hand to her. Dami would fly them there once she took his hand. The path played over in his head. Through the forest and through the hidden gates. He hadn't been home in a while, and his parents would be happy to see him and meet Len.

[Lennia Silverwind]

Len reached for his hand. She hesitated for a second but then placed her hand in his. She smiled and nodded.

[Damian]

"You can trust me." Damian assured her when she hesitated, and then they were off. They flew together, dodging trees as they made their way through the forest. The trunks were simply a blur, but Dami knew his way through the seemingly endless swirl of wood. "Do you like flying?" he asked happily, making a right turn and leaping over a boulder. "It's fun!" The first hidden gate wasn't far from here.

[Lennia Silverwind]

Len laughed. "Flying is fun just I've never flown like this before" She said. Usually the wind helped not some fire spirit or anything else for that matter.

[Damian]

Damian smiled as he stopped quickly infront of a wall of trees. They were so thick and packed together that it could have been a fortress wall. "This is the first gate." he told her. Damian landed and let go of her hand before drawing his blade and striking an X into the bark. It quickly healed in less than a second, as if he had never done a thing to it. "Impenitrable." he said. "Unless..." Damian placed his fist against the tree so that his palm faced away from him. In an instant he had set fire to his skin and scorched the trunk. It left a mark that resembled that of a bearpaw before melting into the tree. The tall plants began to part, forming a tunnel for them to pass through. "Now you try." he said, pointing to the spot where he had burned the bark.
