Skye Prower

Safe???

Don't you want to try your sock out first?

64

W-weren't we g-going to h-have a p-party?

"I think we're both travelling light," said Miles smiling. ----------- "I don't think he's thinking about her like that," said Anna. "Though I'll grant you it is a distraction."

"Just make sure you get the as correct as possible," said Skye. "Otherwise you might give Melody green hair or something!"

"Once the sigils are in place we can put the prepared blood inside, then I'll channel magic through the sigils which will form the new body," explained Skye.

G-good *uncurls self from tails*

Skye looked up as Dylan approached. "If you want you can carve these symbols onto the other side," he said, holding a a sheet of paper.

"Skye, say something," said Melody, "You're right. It should be your choice," said Skye, starting to carve symbols onto the box.

*comes out from hiding under tails* Are t-the explosions o-over n-now?

"I know," said Melody walking over to Skye. "Skye I'm... sorry for what I said. It's just, I... I haven't been able to make a choice for myself since I feel off that roof."

"Sorry, Skye just seemed to be forcing this family thing on me..." said Melody. Skye looked a little downcast. "I'll.... start making those sigils," he murmured,

"No, nothing's wrong Dylan. I just don't want to be..." she glanced at Skye, "forced into this, and not allowed to make my own decision. And thank's Spark.. It's a same there wasn't a way to do it safely." -------------- "Yeah, I don't have much to unpack," said Miles. "Just a book, a photo... and that chest."

Maybe w-we should s-stop r-rescuing him if h-he gets in t-trouble?

Okay 58

"I'm sorry Spark, but I don't think I want to take the risk, though having fire or lightning powers would be really cool," said Melody. "That and Dad would kill you," muttered Skye. "He's not MY Dad," said Melody. "But..."

Good evening everyone (or other apt greeting) Pearl?

Thankfully I was overlooked. Another advantage of being a fox I guess!

Skye was about to answer when Spark spoke. "Pretty much what he said, though there is a chance it could do nothing, or maybe just alter her appearance somewhat. And it might affect her speed ability in unforeseen ways." Melody looked back at Dylan. "I... don't know. I might be willing to take this risk to get my body sooner, but... Skye mentioned Layose before, and if it makes me a target for him..." -------------- "Yeah. Let's do it," said Miles, practically bouncing off the walls. Then he stopped, taking deep breaths. "Calm down, calm down.... oooh it's been so long since I've felt this excited about anything!"

"Pretty good Dylan. A few magical marks and we're ready to get started." Skye turned to Spark. "Hmm, your magic is all elemental based... You could give a hand with channeling power but... that might have some affect on the new body." ----------- Miles looked around. "Wow, this place is great," he said looking around. He spent a good few minutes wandering from room to room, then: "Dib's on this bedroom!"

"Given the horrible job you been landed with, I think you deserve something nice," said Miles.

I'm not s-sure if a g-gator c-count's a w-wacky.

"Cool. You can do magic right Spark? Have you any skill with summoning and transformation without using fire?" asked Skye. ------------- "Sure, though I think Skye still needs to put the sigils on," said Melody ------------- "Maybe you should have come in uniform," joked Miles. "But don't worry, I suspect even in the Prime Zone if you have enough money they won't care." He looked around. "It seems quite quiet at the moment. And so... clean..."
