I hate the way you dont call me....
Maria walked along the shore. Taking out the orb that Xero gave her, she looked into it, seeing her parents laughing and dancing. A song tinkled in the background.
I hate it when you make me laugh......
She shed only one tear, then wiped it away. Putting the orb back in her pocket, she continued to walk. Stopping in front of the sea, she watched birds diving for fish.
And even worse, when you make me cry....
Saying,"Verdana," the ground arched up beneath her, and she sat down. It molded to her thin form. Sighing, she drew with her fingertip on her jeans.
I hate the way I dont hate you, not a little bit, not even at all.

Xero Raelthyw, clad in black cloak, came striding up. "So, I assume you have earth magic." He said, making it a statement, not a question. "You already know mine."

She started. Looking at Xero, she said,"Yeah, I do. Yours is...nice. I like it." As if to push that point, she drew out the orb. She'd made it smaller, as to keep it on a chain, near her heart. [/]"You can sit down, if you want."[/b] she said, patting the ground.

"It comes in handy." Xero replied, a chair shaped crystal growing in his hands. He set it down, continuing to make it grow through sheer force of will. After it was large enough, he sat down.

"Mine'sss Animal Ssshapessshifting..."
Rumbled a voice from behind them. The little bird had flown from Maria's hair a while back, and now this rumbling voice came from a mer-manish like creature, which was a beautiful aqua-blue, and had a large fin trailing from the crest of it's head down it's back, and along the tail fin that replaced it's legs. Gills on the side of it's neck opened and closed as it breathed, the creature stopping beside Maria, coiling itself into a little ball.
"I can take the form of many animalsss and the half-form of sssome... Maria would know thisss..."
What he meant was, Maria saw the halfling transfomration before: when she was being attacked, and he came as a halfdragon. Realising that he hadn't introduced himself, Mer-man Kros looked up form his little coiled pile, an aqua-blue hand extending.
"Krosss... A pleasssure..."

Xero extended his hand, shaking hands with Kros. "Xero Raelthyw. As for shapeshifting, that seems like a useful power. So far mine isn't nearly as useful as yours, though I hope for it to be soon."

Maria laughed at the two boys. "Xero, your power is cool. It means a lot to me that you would make that orb to remind me of my parents. And Xero, your power if awesome. It must be really cool to shapeshift." Standing she stretched and let the earth go.
"The closest to flying I can get, is this." She crouched, fingertips spread out on the ground. Her eyes glowed green, and she flew into the air, with roots and vines pushing her up. She controlled them with her body movements.

"I agree... The view isss very niccce..."
Mer-man Kros said, his body around the same height as Maria. He had wrapped himself around the vines, and slowly crawled up, like a snake. The gills on each side of his neck opened and closed, sucking up the moisture in the air for breath, as the sun glinted off of his skin, making it shine like the many colors of the sea. Of course, it was probably making him more attractive to Maria. Oh, did I forget to mention that Mer-people were charmers? Apparently Kros forgot that as well.

"The closest I can get to flying is this." Xero created a feather like crystal in his hand, before breaking it on the ground. An energy enveloped Xero, and when it faded he was lighter and faster. He jumped straight up, reaching about Maria's height.

Maria smiled. Everyone was having a good time. Lowering herself back to the ground, she slid next to Kros, laying against him. His scales were so beautiful.
"Xero, can you do anything by making a crystal? Like, make yourself small, make yourself invisable? What can you do with your powers?"
