Alexandre traced Cole's energy to Elzario's room. "...Well!" It makes sense though. A star with weak energy will want to be close to their Wisher. She went inside and found both Elzario and Cole asleep. She didn't know what to make of the protective hold Elzario had Cole in. She could also see that, despite being asleep, Elzario was sending out a steady amount of energy to Cole. If not for that, Cole would probably be in a more critical condition... Better get started then...
She opened one of her books and flipped to a specific page with a magic circle and runes. Then she opened the two books to supporting pages. "All right. Best do this while there asleep." She then took a deep, fortifying breath and started drawing the rune circle in the air. Outside that circle, she drew supporting runes and elemental runes. "Oh Eternal Star, from the deep reaches of the Abyss, I call upon thee. Lend me thy strength to rescue one child of thine." The supporting symbols then glowed. "As river flows so does the soul as does time, stopping for none. Change is with the wind, now blow once more. Take hold and change shape, born anew and anew reborn. A soul is saved as another finds salvation within..." She then grabbed the circle and touched it to Cole's body. The circle went inside his body and the runes light spread through him. "I thank thee, Eternal Star. Now rest once more within the reaches of Eternity."

Cole sighed softly when the circle entered his body and the runes spread through him. He relaxed completely and had a peaceful look on his face. And then he groaned and his face contorted with pain. He clutched his chest. Meanwhile his body had changed to Star form. He thrashed, still holding his chest, as he became smaller. He turned into an infant Star and then grew up to his original size.
His body then changed back to human form. He was no longer a child and looked just like he did when he first came down to Earth only he was naked. His clothes had disintegrated. The tattoo that covered his body writhed as he groaned and cried out in pain. He pressed himself against Elzario as his body shuddered. And as suddenly as his agony started it ended. His naked form went completely still.
Then his eye lashes fluttered and he took a gasping breath of air. His chest felt oddly heavy and something was....thumping? He blinked his eyes open and gasped. He tried to sit up, but the weight in his chest made him fall back again. He placed a hand over the thumping in his chest to feel it. "Wha?" he said.
He looked around the room and saw Alexandre. He stared at her before he realized he was naked in front of her. His face when cherry red. "A-A-Alexandre?!!" he said in shock and embarrussment. He flailed around before he grabbed a pillow and placed it over his privates.
Then a five year old boy walked into the room. He was crying. "N-Nii-chan!" Erik cried. Erik was only wearing an over sized T-shirt. He ran over to the bed and crawled onto it. Then he hugged Cole.
"Erik...Shhhhhhh..." he said as he hugged the boy back.
JiStar chuckled and clapped his hands. "Well done Alexandre. Well done. You pass," he said, smiling broadly.
An Elder Star appeared then and looked at Alexandre for a moment. He approached her and placed one of his hands on the side of her head. 'Congratulations little one. You have met the Elders' approval. Welcome, Star Whisperer Alexna,' he thought, giving her her Star name that marked her as mature among the Stars. A small tattoo of interlocking swirls and stars appeared on the back of her right shoulder and extended over to over her heart. 'Continue to grow well,' the Elder thought. Then he disappeared.
JiStar walked over to her and brushed his fingers lightly over the part of her new mark that he could see. "All grown up....I'm proud of you, Alexna. Very proud," he said softly. He hugged her tightly.

Alexandre watched as the incantation took Cole slowly became human. When it was all done, she let out a breath of relief, since it seemed that Cole's soul seemed to have settled nicely. She looked at JiStar, a smile on her face. But before she could say anything, an Elder Star appeared and gave her her star name. Alexna, it was close to her original name, but it at nicely and made her immensely happy. "I look forward to learning more."
Once the Elder Star disappeared, she turned to JiStar once more. "Haha. I couldn't have done it without you, JiStar! And Rio, too! Oh, wait...Rio! We're in...his...room... Ah, um, now would be a good moment to leave..."
Elzario frowned, groggily from all the noise. Initially, he just assumed Cole was having night terrors, then he heard one too many voices and then power surging through the room. So he finally forced his eyes awake and saw various forms standing about in his room. What? He groaned and yawned a bit. "Hm...those voices...Cole? And...a kid? How in the hell?"
His sight cleared up and he spotted Alexandre, JiStar, Cole, a kid who looked like Erik and... Huh!? "What's going on here? Why is everyone in here? Eehh!? Why is this kid here!? Why does he look like... Wait, wait, wait...WHY IS COLE NAKED!?" His eyes were narrowed from overall lack of sleep and confusion.
Alexandre laughed nervously. "I'm not sure if I told you you, but...Rio really hates being woken up unnaturally." She sighed. "I better go brew everyone some tea."

Elzario stared into the cup he was given, silent after taking everything in. "Then she...passed her test. That's...good." He sipped from his cup. "Then I have nothing more to worry about. She is now a grown woman capable of taking care of herself. Now, all that's left is to make sure gets fer self a proper husband... Hm...I wonder how strictly I should screen him? Heh! As if I need to do such a thing."
Slowly, he looked at Cole, then narrowed his eyes a bit at Cole's naked form. "Cole...could you please put some clothes on?" It wasn't too hard for him to control his reactions, but his cheeks were still a slight red. Being naked on ceremony was normal, but waking up to a naked friend...that wasn't. "...Wait, Erik's your little brother now? So then...who are your parents? If you're with me, it's my responsibility to let them know you're here and that I'm taking care of you two. On top of that, we'll need to settle your medical records, birth certificate, schooling... Depending on how old you are, the option of sending you to university is there..." He finished his tea quickly enough and stood. "I can't be laying here like this when there's so much work to do! Ah...ohh..." He stumbled a bit and had to lean on the bedside table. A bit dizzy there.
