Skye Prower

"Oh, really?" asked Miles amused. ------------ Melody watched Hope, crossing her fingers she'd get it.

"But then you wouldn't have gotten me to agree to play with you," pointed out Miles. -------------- "But we're not on the job now. So how about helping Hope with her next spell? Chose an object Hope, then Shadow can Chaos control to another part of the base and hide it," suggested Melody.

"Wha? No. You're a little paranoid with all this worry Dylan. I just meant now I'm going to try extra hard not to slip up," said Miles. While it was try a few slips had been deliberate, most hadn't been. --------------- "Aww, you're no fun," teased Melody. She turned back to Hope. "What now?"

"Yes I did. But I'm not going to make it that easy for you to claim them any more," warned Miles with a grin. ----------- "Anything to help a friend," said Melody, then she glanced at Shadow, wondering what he made of the fact they seemed to have switched to voices mid-conversation.

"But I'm sure you'll manage it ki... DYLAN!" said Miles quickly.

"Good," said Miles smiling. "Remember, until you start feeling that you don't want to go back, no matter what else you feel, you aren't truly in danger of loosing yourself. Though... the journey back may he hard." ------------- 'Hmm, maybe you could arrange a spot outside to practice your magic? Say it'll be safer outside than risking people inside?' suggested Melody.

'Even though even at this stage you are the most powerful spellcaster GUN has? Practice a bit more and who knows what you're skills could be useful for. Might want to practice that force field spell to make Shadow happy though,' thought Melody. ------------- "Wanting to be a kid MIGHT just be part of who you were. Just you didn't realise it. That is not what you need to fight. But, if you start losing your drive to return to the person you were, to stay this way. That is more of a sign that you might be loosing yourself. And even then, it's still a might. I've known some people who wanted to keep their transformed forms without any influence." Miles looked at Dylan. "Does that make any sense?"

Miles looked at Dylan a little shocked. "Dammit, I'm sorry Dylan. I didn't mean to make you cry," said Miles. A little awkwardly, due to balancing on a branch and feeling a little silly for doing so, he gave Dylan a hug. "Listen, it's not the desire to be the kid that's the problem. Stop focusing on that. The problem will only happen if you STOP wanting to go back to normal."

That seems to be one fast moving hedgehog... The small un, not the big un. We know the big un is.

'Be careful what you wish for Hope,' thought Melody in warning. 'With these skills you may find yourself in the feild despite Shadow's wishes!' ------------- For a moment the smile faded from Ziona's face, but almost immediately it was back. "I knnnnoooowwwww that Gleny! But right now I'm a Bat an' can fly. An' do other Bat stuff too. Hey, wanna see if I can take you for a flying ride?" asked Ziona. -------------- "Okay," said Anna. "Is there anything you want to do?" she asked.

'You actually wanted to join the team?' thought Melody to Hope with surprise.

*in creepy old man voice* Now witness the fire-power of this fully armed and operational PINE-CONE!

"Of course, I was joking," said Melody with a grin, then she turned to Hope and was surprised to see her disappointment.

While good, there is one rather large issue with this story I'm afraid. As it stands here, it's hard to know what is going on because a lot of the background information (What are demons, what is the world like, How can people use elements) etc is not present. I know it's in the profile link on your signature, but reading the story 'cold' as it were can be kinda confusing. Oh, and also, I think Lino is now overdrawn by around 5 million Zol.

*satrs saying, then breaks into giggles when Ruby speaks*

"I want to to think over this for a moment. You can want to get back to normal, and still want to be a kid at the same time. The two are not mutually exclusive, even if they may seem that way. And once you've thought that over, I want you to answer my first question again," said Miles, looking down at Dylan.

I don't think that's unique to your school! 30 Phew

Miles sighed. "You might not be a kid here," he tapped his head, "but everywhere else... But I want you to think about something very carefully. Don't answer with the first thing that comes into your head, okay?" -------------- Ziona grinned, spread her wings and dropped from the branch, swooping down effortlessly towards Glen. Rather than landing, she flew straight towards Glen and glomped him mid-flight. "Of course I did Gleny. I'm a Bat, silly!" ---------------- "Everyone in Haven..." began Anna, then she paused. "Or do you... mean... as a person?"

Hmm, I think he needs to look up the definition of 'secretly'! ;) 28 And let's not go there Eliza. Or anywhere near there

"Fine Dylan, just fine," lied Miles as he finally reached the brach when Dylan and Skye were. He tried not to look down, feeling uncomfortable this high being unable to fly. "Hey Skye, why don't you see how high up the tree you can climb," suggested Miles. Skye gave a massive grin and scurried up the tree. "Okay Dylan. Now it's just the two of us. So you're worried that you're not meant to like being a child. But can you say completely certainly that you WOULDN'T have like to have been a kid again for a short while?" -------------- Ziona giggles. "Up here silly. Look straight up," she shouted, waving down at Glen. -------------- "I think you missed your calling in life," laughed Melody. "Hey Shadow. Could Team Dark do with a kick-ass mage on the team?" she joked. ------------- "Maybe you should start wearing a disguise so people don't recognize you? Then they won't know your secret!" joked Anna to Tikal.

*puts arm round Fluffy, smiles, and makes sure Ruby is visible*

March little rabbit march!

Secretly?????? 25

Yeah!

"No it's nwot," repeated Skye crossing his arms. "What's WRONG with wantwing to bwe a kwid?" "I might not have the climbing talent you or Skye have but... whoa!" Miles gave a little cry as the branch he was pulling on snapped, but he kept his grip and didn't fall.
