Sing Shu put her hands up, defensively,"I was only looking at him! Sorry!" She said to the woman. "I didn't mean anything by it," she really didn't want trouble with the strange woman or with Chieftain Sing Ku Young. Her blue eyes filled with panic and her short gray-streaked hair flapped in the breeze.

Ka Shu Fa slowed to a stop before the girl, eying her. Then she turned her attention to Bon-hwa.
"Bon-hwa, did she do you ill?" She asked. The horse snorted and Fa turned to the girl, her mind made up instantly, "I have much work to do. You will watch over Bon-hwa while I work."
There was something familiar about the girl, though it would be quite impossible for Fa to know her since Fa, herself, had only really seen the Ka Shu tribe and the Nu tribe.

"What are you working on? Why you?" Sing Shu asked the woman. She was curious about the newcomers to her tribe, when the Chieftain came up.
"You don't want to deal with this girl," he motioned towards Shu, who took a few steps back, and bowed her head. "She's bad news," he told Ka Shu Fa. He turned to Shu,"Run back to your master's, don't cause any more trouble."
Sing Shu looked up at the Chieftain, then at the woman. "She asked me, I didn't do anything to her or her horse," she told him. The Chieftain looked at her, shocked that she had talked back to him.
"Why do you talk back to me?" He asked her.
"Because, I'm not doing anything wrong," Shu said to him, a grin spreading across her face. "I want to help, let me."

Ka Shu Fa had many, many times over been the subject of a very similar warning. Folding her arms over her chest again she looked at the Chieftain.
"Honorable Chief Sing Ku Young, what has this girl done to warrant a warning?" She asked, hoping to draw attention away from the girl.
She was also familiar with what talking back resulted in and would not be able to stand by and do nothing if the girl was disciplined.

Nu Sou had been occupied giving orders to his soldiers when he saw the chieftain go off. He also noted the two girls and the stern talking. "You have to be kidding me," he sighed and made his way over.
"Excuse me, Chief Sing Ku Young, I am sorry for my friend's boldness. I think Fa sees a bit of herself in this girl. Is it okay if they work together? She will be of no bother."
Ku Young seemed mildly indignant, "I heard you welcomed such things into your midst, but I thought it only rumor. I wish it to be clear, though, the Sing tribe, though appreciative of your help, will not work side by side with the tainted ones."
"Sir, it is either work along side them or watch your tribe burn to the ground. I'd much rather you an ally. After this incident, I will keep my mystics away from your people as best I can. For now, though, would you accompany my less mystically inclined troops? Show them the land as well you can." The Ku Young obliged after glaring at the two girls.
Nu Sou looked to Fa, "Just place nice with the girl, all right? No playing rough. Now get to work already."

Sing Shu was shocked, someone who wasn't her master stood up for her. "Thanks for doing that, both of you, but why defend me?" She asked them, she looked at the girl, who she now saw couldn't be much older than herself, and at the guy, she didn't know what to make of him just yet.

Fa glared daggers at her, "I was not standing up for anyone." And then she turned to Sou, "If she can't keep up with me, that's her problem. Now, I have work to do." And with that, she went to prepare for construction.

"Fa," he shouted out, "she's air. Don't you need one of those?" He walked off, smiling a little. "I think she'll do well for this."

Sing Shu was taken aback when the girl yelled at her. She looked at the guy as he talked to the girl, whom he called Fa. "How did you know I was air?" She asked him.

Fa came to a halt, "He is Nu Sou, he knows all." she replied dryly, "Air mystic?" she asked, "You will still watch Bon-hwa but you will help with the attack as well, do you understand girl? What is your name, I will forget it but tell me anyway." She said curtly.

"Know all?" He mumbled to himself. "She's kept out of public and she's just got their characteristics. Really dominant ones at that." He watched her for a little while. "Well I suppose this is the start of a new friendship." He grinned and gathered together the fighters of the village for intense training.

Fa snorted and turned her head, though she had a sneaking suspision he was right. There was something sweet about the girl that even made her feel guilty for snapping at her earlier.
"Come. We have work to do. Do you know how to use your abilities?"

"My name is Sing Shu, what is your name?" She asked. She looked over at the girl,"I'm better than my master with my abilities," she smiled as she told her. She was proud of herself, and rarely showed it. "I'm also pretty handy with a spear."

"I am Ka Shu Fa." Fa said proudly, accenting each word of her name, "Your skills will be tested soon. Do you have stamina to last long in a battle, Sing Shu?"

"I'm sure I do, but I've never been in a battle, but I'll be up for it," she told Ka Shu Fa. "Just ask if you need any help." Shu went over to Bon-Hwa, to make sure he didn't run away or do anything.
