Vacation, or training? [Open]

[Anila]

'You are insolent, Amadi! Really? The beach!

[/i]' Ayo, an ice spirit, yelled at his bonded friend, Amadi. 'This is the worst place for me to be!' Together the two had explored the lands for Amadi wanted to see what is land looked like, maybe Shinkou's land too.

"Ayo," Amadi grinned at his friend. "Calm down, why don't you lay down in the nice sand while I play in the water." Ayo groaned in annoyance, it was hard for him to understand Amadi sometimes, but what can a spirit do? Amadi breathed in the ocean air. He closed his eyes and felt the breeze from the ocean comb through his fur, the tuft on his was being blown back, if he had opened his eyes, one would be able to see the two different colors.

It felt good, the warm sun warming his back, the cool autumn breeze pushing against him, and the warm sand under his paws. Even the seagulls were a major relaxation. "Uh... Ayo, this is paradise!" Amadi grinned, looking back at him, Ayo had taken his advice and settled down in the sand.

'Hardly,' Ayo snapped, though he did partially agree, and Amadi could sense that. Amadi laughed, "Really now?" Ayo snorted, 'You should practice on some spells on that water, maybe run through it to get faster.' Amadi groaned. "I didn't come here to train! I came here to play!" 'Still a pup at heart, aren't you?' Ayo replied. "I am not a pup anymore! I am offically a Sho-un!" Amadi rolled his eyes.

'I don't care,' Ayo said stiffly. 'Nor does the next wolf, or bear, that we meet cares, he will just see you as easy prey.'Amadi rolled his eyes and walked down to the water. He lifted his head to the air, overwhelmed by the sent of salt. The waves pushed forward, covering Amadi's legs, he shivered, a smile increasing on his face. He inched forward till the water covered his back. He could feel the power in the waves, threatening to push him back, though he stood where he was. Finally, the coldness numbed him and he was immune to the cold of the water.

He walked back up, opening his eyes, Ayo still lay on the beach, almost like an ordinary globe, but Amadi could sense the power within the Spirit, the great power held in his bonded friend. He closed his eyes, going forth the bond and tapping into Ayo's power. Ayo sensed it and released some of it to Amadi, the chill washed over Amadi. The power of the ice tingled his fur and he opened his eyes once more with a grin, Ayo took back his power for Amadi could not use it.

"Why don't you practice your own power?" Amadi tilted his head. "You are the one with the magic." Ayo jumped into the air and floated towards Amadi till he was in front of him. 'That may be, but you are the one needs to know my power.' Amadi sighed. "I am not going to do work. I am traveling around, aren't I?" 'That is just increasing your endurance, now, go run in the water.' Ayo shooed him away. Amadi grinned and walked back towards the water.[/center][/size][/color]

[Le Mad]

It had been far to cold on Myoujou. The plants had withered. War between the great packs had been foretold by the trees and rocks, and Cyaoin believed them. The creature had thought long and hard on its actions, wasting many a night without leaving the safety of the trees. It wasn’t too long before its stomach began to growl relentlessly. When the creature had emerged from the trees, it found that the fruit bushes were almost bare. Their fruit had died in the frosts. It had been distraught, and when it attempted to communicate with the plant, its energy was gone, as if it had died. Cyaoin knew that winter was hitting Myoujou. It was time, once again, to head back to the mainland.

The Umei had always hated the time of the year when it had to begin the long, boring journey to the continent. Especially now with a war commencing. It was an unnerving journey, and certainly not a pleasant one. Cyaoin had survived it, though, and was now sweeping across the land, its reflective shield cloaking it. The creature had its eye on one certain place, however: Asanagi Ocean. The areas around it were rocky, and rocks happened to be amazing cloaking areas. Their jagged, uneven surfaces made it easy to project a simple image over the creature’s body, and none would be able to tell the creature was there.

And that was what Cyaoin did. However, today, the Umeidolbra had been under the saltwater, gathering seaweed. It figured none would be foolish to venture underneath the icy waves during The Cold Time, and didn’t bother with cloaking itself. A smile was plastered on its human-like lips. Cyaoin found it enlightening to float through the water, only needing to come up for air every so-often. The Umei’s fur drifted and flowed with grace. Cyaoin closed its eyes and sank further into the water, its front handpaws grasping a bounty of seaweed. The creature kicked off with its back legs. Why would there be creatures around with a war going on? It didn’t worry about any wolves or scouts. They were doing battle.

With a great splash, the creature emerged from the surface of the ocean, a gleeful grin on its human (yet somewhat catlike) face. It inhaled deeply and looked forward. What it saw shocked it to the very core. There were two beings, one being a spirit, and the other being a wolf in the waters. The dark-pigmented creature dove back into the water, hoping they had not seen it. It began to swim frantically away, but its tail and paws only slowed it down. Hopefully, though it was not likely, they had been oblivious to his entrance. If not, he would have to exit the water and flee.

[Anila]

As the chocolate wolf padded towards the ocean, a splash was heard. He was utterly confused, glancing up. His eyes widened, though you couldn't see it under his tuft of hair, in utter shock. His mouth dropped open and his ears perked. The very eyes of this beast made every body in Amadi's body shiver. A smiled spread on his face, "What is that!?" He called.

'AMADI! NO!' Ayo shouted, shooting forward, but it was too late, Amadi was already in the water as the creature dove back into the water. Amadi yowled out, "Hey! Wait! Please come back! I wont hurt you! My name is Amadi!" He yowled loudly, though he still wasn't fully grown and didn't trust himself in the water, he only went till he couldn't touch anymore.

Amadi wasn't really the curious type, but he has never seen a creature of such sorts, if it wasn't for his good ears, he wouldn't of seen this creature. He blocked out the frantic calls from Ayo who was still on the beach. He has almost lost his balance as a wave crashed into him, but he kept forward. His eyes widened in a short fright as his paw's didn't touch the ground, a wave came over him and he tumbled in the water, fighting to stay up, but which was was up?

Ayo yowled out as he saw Amadi disappear under the water. He could of sworn that he shattered that moment. 'Amadi!'

[/i] He yowled, staying above the water looking for him. For the first time in a long time Ayo felt cold and alone. He searched the surface of the water for Amadi, but the Sho-un was no where to be seen. He shivered, looking, 'AMADI!' He yelled again, he could still feel it, Amadi was alive, but where was he?

Those green lights! Amadi saw in the distance, or was closer? He saw bright green lights, and he compared it to the creature's eyes. That has to be it! Those are his eyes! Though he paused, should he go towards it, or continue to try and find his way to the top. His lungs screamed for air, it was a pain he was just realizing. I-I have to get air! He kicked his legs, but it was useless. More waves washed over him, pushing his, turning him. He looked around, Up! Where is up!? The darkness edged his sight. The green lights came a blur and he heard at a distance Ayo yelling. He swam towards the sound, but he couldn't see anything, but to his utter surprise, he broke the surface.

'You drenched fur-ball!' Ayo wailed and guided Amadi to the beach. Amadi dragged himself onto the shore, coughing. Ayo was spatting angry words at him, but all Amadi was interested was where the creature was, hoping it would come back.[/size][/center][/color]

[jinx]

Soft pads touched the ground lightly as Jinx realized that there was a border she had just crossed. Although she was leery of crossing boarders Jinx had found no other way to go than through here. It was beautiful as her eyes adjusted to the new scenery. Her ears stood forward searching sounds of life. Sounds of another soul out here in the world. It had been a while since she had even laid eyes on another wolf. Mostly she caught scents of other but kept to herself because she felt the need to avoid others. Jinx lowered her head past her padders and touched her nose to the ground. It almost had a vibe to the earth. She raised her head toward the sky, her left paw coming off the ground as she scented. There was a faint scent coming from ahead. Jinx was weary of running into a patrol that was in a bad mood or unwelcoming to outsiders. Her hind legs tensed with the need to be on alert while her body stiffened. Standing with one paw off the ground she takes a step forward. The wolvens body was now bunched and alert, ready to fight or flee depending on the situation. Jinx had only been in a few fights and even though she was tricky even she knew her own boundaries. Each step took her a few feet nearer to the awaiting wolven. 

"Maybe I could stay here..."

[/i]

Jinx hushed herself in her thoughts and shook her head a bit to try and stay focused on where the scent was. It was uncommon for her to get distracted. Keeping her head level with her shoulders Jinx quickened her step. Her body was lean and muscled from being on her own for the past few months. She still had a curious mind though and her love for knowing things that always gets her. Jinx kept walking forward and stopped to make sure she was on the right track. The smell was getting stronger. There sounded to be only one of them and yet there was another voice but not a scent trail. She kept walking faster this time and came across a small lump in the earth, a dune. The scents were really strong now and their voices were coming in as low mummers in her auds. She paused and listened more carefully picking out different tones.

Keeping a lil ways away from the others Jinx kept her pace steady and silent only wishing to get a glimpse of them. She didn't know if approaching would be the wisest idea. None the less she was going to get a sight of them first. That thought made Jinx smirk to herself. She wasn't the best at doing what she tells herself. The sand beneath her paws made it crunch silently under her weight. The air smelled of salt and the waves created a small roaring that seemed almost like persistence. Jinx liked the water and could always find herself drawn to it. As much fun as running and splashing in the mist sounded she wanted to find them. Keeping her senses on alert she found her way along the beach and followed the smell. Even when the salt mingled with their scents she found it easier to tell the difference. Slowly the sand made a small dune and not paying attention she found the voices loud and clear. Auds flicked forward and shoulders dropped to allow a position of hello and yet saying she would defend herself. pulling her body into sight she found a wolf drenched in water and an odd expression on his face. She cocked her head side ways getting a better look at this new person. [/left] [/size]
