Trees are AWESOME!!

[Álairënssë Vórimá]

The wind blew from her body, toppling over a few of the bushes. She didnt exhert too much energy, just enough to keep her in shape, when it came to her training. Unbeknownst to her mother she had taken to training anytime she wasnt home, which really was, everyday. She knew her mother would end up being angered if she didnt train with her. She had no choice in the matter, although she always learned a lot from her, this training was vastly different. This one dealt with training her Fallen capabilities, something her father had made her do for hours on end for the past 5 years. She missed him a lot and the spars they would get into almost every other day, but now she didnt have that luxury. She closed her eyes, and concentrated her energy towards her shoulders, where she felt something prick from them. Slowly, black wings emerged from her back. The wing size was pretty normal for her kind, even if she was just a halfie. She let the wings wrap around her body, just to give them a chance to become versatile in movement and be able to move in many different positions without causing her difficulty, or pains, when it did occur.

He moved along the trees quickly. It was something his father had told him to practice, because being able to use your environment was always an advantage, and he just swung from one to another, slamming his foot onto the stump of one tree and heading for another one, and then finally landed in a small clearing, bored of his stupid game and eyed whoever it was with those black wings and stood silent.

[Álairënssë Vórimá]

She remained that way for awhile, just wanting to test her limits. She knew that summoning your wings took a lot of energy out of you, of course this only applied to the people who werent used to this, like her. She heard a noise come towards her spot, but since she was still covered by the wings she couldnt see who or what it was, and right now she wouldnt even bother sensing, since she was trying to keep this up as long as she could. She opened her eyes, and felt her wings open up, catching a glimpse of another person, and slowly, they retracted. She clenched her teeth, feeling the pain that came when the wings came back into the skin, and remained still until it was completely retracted.

[Alder Zotithla]

"You should practice making them go back and forth, I think it eases the pain, at least I think that's what my mother told me." He nodded and then just walked over to a tree, onto a new task, pulling at a leaf.

[Álairënssë Vórimá]

She stared at him. She remained silent for a bit, sensing a familiar aura from him. It reminded her of her father and herself. "You're a half fallen too then?" She nodded. "I've been told that before, but I'd rather master one thing before I go on to the next, it's painful, and I rather learn how to deal with the pain better." She watched him.

[Alder Zotithla]

"Well, that's HOW, but if you don't want to listen, that's cool." He shrugged and continued at the leaves, watching them fall to the floor as he touched every single one of them.

[Álairënssë Vórimá]

"It's not that I dont want to listen, it's just that I want to take my time before I rush into anything else." She watched the leaves as they turned from a healthy green to a decrepit brown in a matter of seconds and raised her eyebrow.

[Alder Zotithla]

"Whatever makes you content in what you do, whether dismal or not." It was something Hades had told him in a rare grandson-grandfather moment. It was when he had been injured and in bed for that period of time. He looked at the leaves, and then the whole tree, smiling at it."You shall be spared, my mother might be angry if she knew I was getting rid of nature."

[Álairënssë Vórimá]

She just shrugged her shoulders. "Thanks." She wondered how he was causing those leaves to die. She had heard about the Angel of Death that could touch anything and it would die, but he was obviously a fallen, so it didnt make any sense. Standing silently, it hit her slowly, he was probably in some way related to that angel, hence that power. "Interesting ability."

[Alder Zotithla]

He shrugged."Interesting, but you don't want it. One small mistake, and..." He mockingly choked himself and lolled his head, his eyes bulging and tongue out."The end of whoever you touch."

[Álairënssë Vórimá]

She laughed a bit. "Isnt that the case with most abilities though? With training you'd be able to control that as easy as you control your bladder. It's probably handy if you ever get in a tough spot. I think that would be a very coveted ability to have. But that's just me." She shrugged her shoulders.

[Alder Zotithla]

"And what do you suppose training would entail huh? Obviously, note the ability, think of the training, what would I have to do to control it?" He merely eyed her and decided to let her figure out the rest. "It's not light sparring, it's not like having wings, or a fireball."

[Álairënssë Vórimá]

"I dont know, but I can guess. I mean, if that's the problem why not train using the trees. Especially doing it when someone pisses you off. If you can stop yourself from touching and killing a tree in an angry state, it's probably just as easy to control it when a person you're face to face with angers you. But like I said, I dont know, so I'm just speculating."

[Alder Zotithla]

"A person has a mind, a will, a motive to keep angering, a tree does not. Once a tree is dead or alive, that's it. As for a creature, angering more and more won't be to my advantage in controlling my power even WITH training. You don't have the ability, do not advise me." He wasn't trying to be mean, but as always, this is what Alder did best.

[Álairënssë Vórimá]

"Excuse me, for just saying what I thought. I KNOW I dont have your ability, and I even stated I was 'speculating,' because I 'didnt know'. So before you say anything, listen carefully to what people say." She said sharply.
