 Gymnastics Class - Part One"Are you sure baby? Really sure?" Teagan rolled his eyes. Geez, this was the tenth time she'd asked him, "Yes momma, I'm sure." Ul still didn't seem convinced as she shifted the van into park. "You really want to learn gymnastics? This isn't just one of your phases?" She asked, casting a wary glance toward the colorful building whose metal dancer now seemed so... Ominous. He gave an annoyed sigh, tugging the heavy door open, "No momma, it's not a phase, I don't do phases."Sure, eating nothing but waffles for a month was a bit odd, but he liked waffles, there was nothing bad about them. Ul climbed out carefully, followed closely by the twins. Sure, they were just babies, but they could fly, and lately they'd been following Tea around. She watched the two flitter off after him, amused by his eagerness. There was her little boy, off to learn something new. In a leotard. Some god had a strange sense of humor. Meanwhile, Teagan had already reached the building, and was waiting "somewhat" patiently by the second set of glass doors, his eyes locked on the people training just a few feet away. Oh why couldn't she just hurry up already? He fidgeted, only a little annoyed as the twins copied his movement. When Ul finally reached the door he rushed inside, leaping up onto the rings as she went to talk to the head coach. Honestly, Olivia Miles was impressed. In her years working with the national teams she had seen her share of prodigies, but something was different about him, aside from his strange outfit. He had to have some kind of gift, taking to the pro rings like that without any instruction. Ul gave a weak smile, tapping the woman's shoulder, "Olivia, is it? My name's Ul Russo, we spoke earlier on the phone, about my son Teagan.." The older woman simply shushed her and kept watching him. Finally, she turned to look at Ul, "He's brilliant!" Ul looked up toward the rings and frowned, "Brilliant? My son is brilliant? You must have meant someone else." Teagan pulled himself up into a spread handstand, steadying himself with a few flicks of his tail. Olivia shook her head, pointing him out, "The skinny one, with the odd colored eyes, on the rings. That boy has a future on my team." Ul blinked, looking up at him again to see what she'd missed. After all, he was just being his normal goofy self. "Future?" She asked, wondering what this bristly woman was going on about. Olivia ignored the question, instead waving a hand to Tea, "Boy! Get down here!" With a strange obedience, he dismounted and settled by her side. glancing around for the twins, though they were nowhere to be found. Remembering why he'd come down, he nodded and stood stock still, "Yes ma'am?" Olivia shook her head, "No ma'ams. Call me Coach from now on." Teagan's face lit up at the word, "C- Coa- Coach?" She cracked a smile, having already noticed and accepted the 'extra' features, "Yeah, Coach. Under one condition." He beamed up at her, "Yeah? I'll do anything." Coach nodded, her smile almost gone, "Good boy, you'll make a fine addition, go see Stacie about your team jacket."

.:A Day At The Mall:. [ X] Teagan [ X] Evarobby [X] Tyyne Quote: Glad to be away from his mother a bit, he had a lot of feelings like that lately, Teagan rustled through a rack of shirts, mentally marking the ones he liked. Honestly, he'd been having a lot of new feelings, not like the Kits did when they were a bit older than him, but some, and they were starting to get to him. He hadn't told Her though, it would give her a reason to take him to the doctor and restrict his training privelages if he was sick. Quote: "Alright.. We're here." The weremutt huffed a bit before setting down his joey, who appeared somewhat uncertain about the carrying coming to an end. Freize looked down at Eva, "Don't wander too far off.." And then he turned to look through the clothes for something to put his Eden in. The little guy watched him uncertainly for a moment, clad in one of his only pairs of clothes that were still intact.. He soon grew bored though, and turned to march off among the racks of clothing, making sure to try and remember where he saw his Da last.. He stopped near the lemur, having yet to see him, staring up at the clothes thoughtfully. Woow. They had lotsa these here. He didn't quite understand why (he was still learning the importance of clothes,) but it was kinda neat.Quote: Apparently noticing the tot before he was noticed himself, Tea lifted a small white jersey with a little wave symbol off the rack and held it out to the kangaroo, "You'd look cute in this." Alright, maybe phrasing it that way would seem a little... Creepy, but it was what he thought. That was another thing, he'd been thinking things were 'cute' a lot more often. Quote: The boy's head turned, ears swivveling towards Tea.. And he smiled after finding out who it was. He took no offense to wording, taking the extended jersey and examining it thoughtfully. Tea liked this? Hm. He pondered over it for a moment before lifting his eyes curiously, seemingly asking whether or not he should put it on now. He was getting good at communicating without speaking. Quote: Tea nodded, quirking an ear along with a bright smile. "You can put it on here if you want, or you can take it back to the dressing room, I could help if ya want." It seemed like a strange offer to most people, but he was being sincere, he really didn't know if the kid knew how to dress himself yet. "I think I'm gonna try these on." He held up a few shirts, the front one didn't really look like it was made for a guy, which was, in fact, because it was made for a girl. Not that girly though, just a baseball shirt cut tight for a girl. Quote: The toddler smiled at the offer, but gave a shake to his head and held the jersey with one arm and watched as the older boy pulled out a shirt. He looked it over thoughtfully and then nodded his approval, although he didn't have too much of an opinion on all of that clothes stuff. He then began changing into the jersey, not really caring all too much. After getting it on, his stretched out his arms and looked down at himself thoughtfully. Well, it was comfy. Eva smiled some. Quote: Tea looked the child over appreciatively, "You look adorable!" Ok, that was a bit much, but eh, the tot didn't seem to care so much about his little quirks. As long as no one had a problem with it, he could say all the odd things he wanted. Though, he was starting to draw some attention, now that he was taller than the racks, before he had always been hidden from view. Without a hint of modesty, he slipped off his jacket and pulled his shirt off over his head. Pausing for a moment for a reason he couldn't figure out himself, he flashed another smile to Eva before pulling the other shirt on. Quote: Eva smiled brightly, just picking up the older boy's appreciation and not really thinking too much on the comment. Compliments really didn't have much of an effect on him- he didn't get them all that much.. But that was just because of the way his mind worked. He waited to see Tea after the lemur changed in order to return the approval, just feeling as if thats what he was supposed to do. He rocked back and forth, flip-flops making squeaky noises.. He blinked, a bit confused as to why the boy stopped in the middle of changing, but he returned the smile, albeit a bit uncertainly. He gave a clap of his hands afterwards and nodded once again, letting the older Eden know he approved. Quote: Moving to stand in front of the mirror, Tea started to pose, trying to see what it made him look like from every angle. Doing a particularly silly pose, he tried to wave Eva over, trying to make it look like a game so the other wouldn't think he was 'weird' liking to see himself so much, "Try it, it's fun." Quote: The squirt arched his brows as he watched the older boy, unable to really understand what was going on... He had no real ego himself, no great personal view on himself. Or other people, really. He was Eva, they were whoever they were. End of story.. So.. The posing was kinda wierd. He gave a tilt to his head, hesitating before going on over to play with a smile, trying out a few poses himself. A bit uncertainly, seeing as he didn't quite get the point, but as long as it was fun. The joey just wanted fun, after all. Quote: It took the lemur a bit to notice the other one didn't seem to find it as fun, but once he did, he changed back into his normal shirt, then paused to figure out what the littler one would want to do. "So.. Are you hungry?" Food was always a good choice, and Beckie had told him there were some pretty good restaurants around here, even one with mango chutney. Quote: It was fun, but he didn't quite understand the point. Eva mainly just thought it was fun 'cause he got to goof off.. That was always okay in his books. He tilted his head as they stopped the game, curious, but after seeing Tea change he decided to do the same. He tugged off the jersey and went back to his normal look. His ears flickered a bit at the word hungry, his eyes darting back to the older boy and a bright smile appearing. He nodded. Food was always good! Quote: Setting the things he had picked up back on the rack, he'd come back for them later, Tea reached for Eva's hand and looked around for the joey's father, knowing from experience with his own mother how much parents would freak out. "We gotta find your dad first. Then we can find good foods." As if anticipating a question about his own parent, he added, "Momma knows I'm here by myself." Quote: As soon as something was reaching for him, the little guy basically attatched himself to Tea- albeit it was just his hand right now. Eva could get somewhat clingy sometimes, as Freize knew most of all. The boy's ears drooped slightly at the mention of finding his Da- erp... Where was he? He turned his head to look around, and then nodded and began plodding off towards where he thought he saw him last. He smiled brightly towards the older boy afterwards, excited about good foods.. He wondered why anyone would wanna be away from their parent, but that was just because he was completely dependant on a parental figure sometimes. Must be the pouch-joey inside of him. Quote: Tyyne was still insecure as she walked through the different pieces of clothes. This looked more like the boys pieces...where were the girly ones ? Everytime somebody looked at her she blushed awfully. She just wasn't used to wear her hair open, but it had grown a lot and mum had mentioned that it was awfully pretty like this. As she looked up she noticed someone familiar near by. Hadn't she seen this man at the headquarter before ? He was the father of the baby who didn't talk, right ? The young girl moved up to Freize and a slight smile crossed her face. "Hello Mr..." Quote: Feeling the rather tight grip on his hand, Tea suddenly thought of what Coach would say if this little one bruised them. With that in mind, he did something that was very lemurlike, but uncommon for a male, he pulled the child onto his back. Sort of like a piggy back ride, but higher, more instinctual. Now the little one had more places to hold on to, and his hands were safe. "Better?" He asked with a little smile, speeding up his walk a bit now that he wouldn't have to keep a steady pace for the joey. From about ten feet away, he noticed one thing, bright blonde hair. Tyyne! And there was the boy's father too, what luck! Quote: Freize turned slightly as he heard a voice, brows arched slightly. A warm smile came across his face as he recognised the girl from the last time he was at the HQ. He moved to face her, "Freize. You can just call me Freize." He glanced about, now noticing that his child had wandered off.. Internal sigh. Hopefully he hadn't tried climbing the racks or something.. He turned back to the girl, smile back, "Can I help you?"
The boy blinked, but being the "pouch-joey" that he was, he didn't mind being carried. OF COURSE not. Freize only had to carry him everywhere. He nestled into the older boy's back and nodded, glancing about cheerily. Now he was up higher too! How great. He perked a bit as he spotted his dad and that nice girl from before, beaming slightly. There was Da, and another kid! Maybe she'd come with them and get some good foods.Quote: "I was about to look for some new clothes, but I'm just not able to find the girl's part of the store." Tyyne blushed slightly nestling around with her fingers nervously. "And I just wanted to be polite and say hello, Mr. Freize." As she heard some footsteps she turned around and noticed Teagan and the other boy coming closer. She blushed a bit as she was reminded of her favourite series on TV everytime she saw Teagan. "Um...hello." Quote: Flipping his hair out of his eyes, Teagan smiled to the familiar girl, not quite grasping why she seemed embarassed. Normally, he would have hugged her, but he wasn't going to risk dropping this little one, that'd be a bad impression, like what had happened with Madeline. "Heya doll." Alright, it was a silly thing to call her, but he'd been watching to much TV. With a polite little nod he turned his attention to the younger boy's father, "I brought your joey. We were gonna get some lunch, is that ok?" Quote: The weremutt nodded, "I see... Thank you, that was very.." His head turned towards the approaching pair, "Nice of you..." He watched the children for awhile, arching his brows at the use of the word "doll"... Hm.. Kids.
Eva shifted slightly so that he could wave enthusiastically at Tyyne, and then at his Da, grinning slightly. Lotsa people were always good. And in his mind, three was a lot. Two was a good number of playmates, and his Da was always good to have around. He relaxed into the older boy's back again, arms drooped loosely over his shoulders.The male nodded a bit, "Ah... That's fine.." He fished around in his pockets for some money, and then offered some to the boy, "Use this for Eva, alright?" He didn't want to make anyone else pay for his kid... That would be rude. Atleast in his mind. Quote: Tyyne blinked several times as she heard Teagan call her doll. Wow, he really talked like the people on TV ! Hopefully they would become friends and then Ty would be extraordinary too. Clutching her hands together she moved her head slightly. "Oh can I come with you ? I haven't eaten anything since today morning." She spoke in a soft voice before turning back to Freize. "It was nice to see you too." "And as I see you still don't speak." She turned to Eva and petted his head slowly. "No problem, at all." Quote: With a little smile, Tea took the money and tucked it in his back pocket, "Will do sir." Wow, that was a new one, sir. That was a good thing he was picking up from his training, none of his coaches took any disrespect. Turning his attention to Tyyne, he held his hand out to her, contact was everything to him, "Sure, whatcha want? Beckie says there are some good veggie places around here, might have to leave the mall though." One ear fell down as he looked back at Frieze, not sure if he'd have anything to say about that. Quote: The little guy smiled after recieving the pat to his head, tail swaying back and forth merrily as he cuddled into Tea's back slightly. He was big on contact too. He tilted his head, resting his cheek on the older boy's shoulder blade so he could watch the girl standing beside him for now and letting everyone work out where they were gonna go.Freize was surprisingly pretty laid back about the whole situation, nodding at the mention of having to leave the mall. That was fine. "Alright... But be warned, he's a picky eater." He smiled a bit, "I'll be around this store if you need me, you can find me here." Quote: Having two sisters who loved contact Tyyne knew why he extended the hand. But after all she wasn't one of those touchy people and now she felt a bit strange about it. Anyway, he was the cool-as-Tv-guy, right ? Slowly she took the hand and smiled slightly. "I don't care. I brought my pocket money, so we can go anywhere." She added and pointed to her chest. Lena had bought her a neck pouch to keep her money save. "Thank you, Mister Freize. We will take care of Eva." Quote: Tea nodded cheerfully, not at all surprised by the thought of having a hard time finding something the joey liked. After all, if he liked sugar cane he must have good tastes, and now Tyyne was coming too, she could help! "We sure will, and don't worry, Momma says I'm a picky eater too, well, not in the past few weeks" He said simply, starting to walk away slowly backward so that he would still be facing the man if he had anything else to say. Tyyne seemed smaller than he remembered, but maybe he was just bigger. Yeah, that was probably it. Quote: The man smiled warmly towards Tyyne, "Thank you. It was nice speaking with you.." He looked towards the other two and gave a nod before turning to go back to looking through clothes.
Eva began growing bored with waiting, and blew out a deep breath that came out as a sort of hiss. Humdedum.. He perked up slightly, lifitng himself a bit to try and let his chin rest on Tea's shoulder, as he could tell they were starting to leave. He felt suddenly a bit uncertain as he noticed them moving away from Freize, but decided he still wanted to go with the other kids... He'd have to fight his inner pouch-joey. He wriggled his toes and fingers to release some of his energy.Quote: Tyyne glanced at her own hand once in a while. Today was a strange day, first she got the new hairstyle and now she finally made some friends. Of course, she had Shouko, but they hadn't talked or seen each other for weeks. "Why are you wearing...this training thing, Teagan ?" Tyyne questioned as she looked at Eva. She wouldn't look at the Lemur straight, her shy nature didn't allow her to do so. But after all she was happy to be not alone. Quote: Turning around so that he was facing the right direction, Teagan looked at her curiously, "Training.. Thing?" Ok, he wasn't the brightest bulb in the bunch, "Oh. You mean Eva?" He laughed, "He's not a training thing, he's my little buddy. Idn't that right Eva?" Quote: The little guy blinked once or twice, ears perking. Whazzat? He didn't seem to pick up on what was going on, probably because he wasn't listening. He just heard Tea say they were buddies, and ask him about it, so he beamed and nodded cheerily. Teagan was his buddy! Of course! Quote: Tyyne felt awfully misunderstood and pointed at Teagan's clothes quietly. "I meant..your...sport suit." She admitted before concentrating on Eva again. The small one was easier, he didn't talk. Quote: Tea blushed, looking down at his clothing, "Oh. Oops, sorry bout that." He gave a little nervous laugh, then tapped the symbol on his jacket, "Coach likes me to tell people about the team, so we can drum up the best of the best." It was advertising basically, but it worked. Silently, he hoped he hadn't upset her by not understanding. Quote: The squirt turned his head to look at Tyyne now, curious as to why she was watching him, although he was smiling so he couldn't have minded too much. He was just wondering if she was gonna say anything. He gave a little wave before lowering his arm back to Tea's shoulder.. His ears perked again and he smiled, tugging at the jacket to get the older boy's attention, his head tilting slightly. He tried to fix his expression so as to ask more about the coach and team and all of that. Sounded neat. Quote: "What kind of Team ? Sports team ? Like...the people on tv winning medals ?" It was so obvious that this girl had been watching TV all day lately to cure her boredom. She needed some friends, but actually Ty was living in the world of series, soaps and comics at the moment. Oh yes...and sport events. She waved back at Eva and smiled. He helped her at least a bit. He could be one of the baby superheros --- or Teagan's assistant. Quote: Tea nodded, "Somethin like that. I mean, we compete in tournaments and win medals and stuff. There's a couple in the next few weeks, I haven't been to any myself, Coach says I'm not ready, but my friend Beckie is competing in the Jr portion of the next one. Coach said maybe I can go for the one after it. That'd be fun, huh?" Suddenly realizing Eva's silent question, he spoke up again, this time more information that rambling, "Gymnastics team, like the stuff I showed you, but seeing if we're better than the other teams." Quote: Eva brightened. That stuff was tons of fun! Teagan was so lucky... The little squirt wasn't all too good at it, but it was fun. And you got to go up high. That was great. He nodded enthusiastically about the stuff that the older boy said, like the Jr. portion or whatever.. Sounded great. He was happy for Tea. He hoped that he found something fun that he liked so that he could do it all the time.. Da said something about rock climbing or something when he was older.. That sounded good too... Quote: Tyyne smiled and accidently tightened her grip. "Ooooh you will do competitions ? Can Eva and I come and applaud and so ?" She had seen this often on TV, if friends were about the people won and then everyone was happy. "Can girls do...these gymnastics too ?" She wondered as she looked at herself. Quote: He nodded, flinching a bit at the tightened grip but he quickly settled, trying to lead them toward the door to outside and a cajun style grill across the street, "Course they can, Coach is a girl and she's a great gymnast!" Picking up on a little extra meaning, he nodded again, "You could come if you want, you could even come to some of the practices if you want to learn somethin." Quote: He nodded slighty- he had seen some girls do it! And they were really good. He got all excited when Tyyne mentioned the two of them going to watch. That'd be really neat! He wriggled about on the older boy's back for a moment before nestling back into him, resting his cheek on his shoulder.. Tyyne wanted to try that stuff too? He decided she should. It was fun. Quote: Tyyne smiled a bit as she thought about the option. "Sounds nice, but I don't know if I can do it. I saw some girls on TV throwing balls and swirling around with ribbons...is it something like this for girls ?" She imagined herself winning competitions and people applauding and suddenly she stopped. She was NEVER EVER going to perform in front of people. "Umm...do you have to to competitions ?" Quote: He reached a hand back and ruffled Eva's hair before answering Tyyne's question. "Sorta. And you don't have to compete, some people just like to. Like, Coach says I want to prove something to people. I unno." He thought about the different styles, "Some people use ribbons and medicine balls and stuff, I'm better at the uneven bars and floor routines. Coach says she wants me to try a rhythmn routine with some of the older kids though, so I might do that." Quote: The squirt grinned as his hair was ruffled, rubbing his face into Tea's shoulder before going still. He'd let them talk their big kid talk about all of that gymnastics stuff- it was fun, but he didn't get some of the stuff they were talking about, so he let it go. He'd just wait for the food and stuff. Besides, it's not like he could say anything on the matter. Quote: "Alright, I will ask my Mum and she can talk to your Mum and then I will come and look." Tyyne was pretty happy about the arrangement as she looked at Eva. "I bet you're hungry, Eva. I think we should buy something..." Pretty insecure about talking to a stranger behind the bar she looked at Teagan. Could he probably order? Quote: Teagan nodded, "Little guy's prolly starving. I know I am. Anything in particular you want Ty?" While he waited for her to make up her mind, he stepped up to the counter and held up one finger then two, "One order of sweet potatoes, two bowls of vegan jambalaya, and a glass of sweet tea." The man at the bar nodded and yelled something at the cook before telling the lemur he'd call them when it was ready. So, the boy turned his attention back to Tyyne, curious. Quote: Eva nodded slightly at both of their comments about his hunger, ears lifting at the mention of food. He was back to being excited. There may not be a lot he liked to eat, but he did love to eat. He popped two fingers into his mouth, holding onto Tea with the other arm and letting his tail sway about merrily. He let him order, looking towards Tyyne with a smile. They were gonna get food now! What would she get? [.:To Be Continued:.]

A day at the mall [ X] Teagan [ X] Evarobby [X] Tyyne Quote: "Some tea...and a potatoe please." Tyyne said in a hushed voice and looked at the floor quickly again. She had never ordered at such a place and she didn't intend to do anything wrong. Her golden eyes wondered if Eva was already able to eat all kind of food. "What do you think Eva would like ?" Ty asked Teagan while petting the small ones head slightly. He comforted her somehow, because he was smaller and she wasn't the one who needed the most help. Quote: The man behind the counter didn't quite seem to hear her, so Teagan stepped up again and repeated it, louder. Then, with a nod from the man, he walked toward a corner of the restaurant that wasn't so crowded, maybe then she'd relax. He waited to sit down though, thinking of how to get the littler one off his back without startling him. "I'm hoping he'll like jambalaya. It doesn't need too much chewing and it's veggie." Nodding purposefully, he gestured to a booth by the window, "Want to sit in the sun?" Quote: The little guy smiled brightly towards the girl as she rubbed his head, rubbing into her had affectionately before perking a bit to look at the man behind the counter curiously, ears perked.. And then he lost interest and dropped back down, just relaxing as they began moving somewhere else.. He was up again, looking towards the booth curiously, and then he nodded happily. He liked sitting in the sun, it was nice and warm.. Now, how to get off? Hm.. He always just jumped off of Da, but that's because he got to sit on his shoulders. This was different somehow. Quote: Tyyne was just about to sit down as she noticed the dilemma about the baby on the back. It was a real fun game, almost like playing family. She smiled as she moved over to Eva and offered her arms. "I can take you, if you want." The blonde girl offered and pushed a strand of her hair out of her face. She still wasn't quite used to this. "You can choose where you want to sit then." Quote: Tea gave a playful little smile, "Or, I could stand on my head till he slips off." He reached an arm back to see how tight the little one was still holding. "I'm kidding of course, it'd be mean to drop him no his head. Well, that's what Momma says anyway, she still apologizes for dropping me sometimes. Dunno why." Shrugging, he set both hands on the joey's arms, "I could pull you up and over if you want, but going with Tyy would be safer." Quote: The little guy wriggled, and then blinked at the boy's idea, brows arched.. He grinned after finding out he was kidding. Eva didn't like being wrongside-up very much. He seemed to like Tyyne's idea best, and using a foot to keep his balance- by lightly pressing it on Tea's back- he pulled one arm from the older boy's shoulder and reached for the girl with a smile. He liked being held, to be told the truth, so moving from person to person sounded like a good deal. Quote: Tyyne reached for Evarobby and tried to get him into her arms safely. She had often seen how to hold a younger one and know she tried to do so carefully. Hopefully he wouldn't start wiggling, she thought. Out of a sudden emotion she kissed Eva's forehead and smiled slightly. "Please don't move too much, you're quite heavy for me." She admitted as she sat down at the table. Quote: Tea settled down across from them, flicking an ear curiously. Heavy? Eva seemed so light for him, strange. Instead of saying anything about it though, he decided to find out what had been going on in the world of friends he'd been missing. "What've you been doing lately Ty? S'been a while." Quote: The boy blinked a bit, ears perking, Whazzat? Heavy? No one had said that before- but then again, he had only been held by adults and Teagan.. Oh well. He tried to keep as still as possible now, pressing his lips into a thin line as he concentrated on not moving. As soon as they were seated, he crawled over a bit, sitting beside her. He folded his legs up, feet resting on the seat as he watched the two curiously. Quote: Tyyne looked at the food and felt a bit uncomfortable..again. "Well, not much. We moved into the new house, but I didn't meet many people. Just my siblings...some of them are on vacation, so it's pretty lonely at home. I watched lots of TV." The young girl admitted as she looked at the Lemur for a moment. "How about you ?" Quote: Teagan nodded, lifting his arms off the table when the waiter came with a plate of fresh sugared sweet potatoes. "I haven't watched much TV since I started with Coach, don't have the time. If you're lonely, maybe you should pick up a hobby, like, I dunno, swimming or something." It was an interesting suggestion, he wasn't quite sure where he'd gotten it, considering he couldn't swim himself. Quote: The boy seemed ot sense the girl's discomfort or something, and looked towards her now, ears drooping a bit. He cuddled into her side slightly, throwing her a smile before looking now towards the food. His ears were back up. He was curious about what sort of food there was gonna be.. He never really watched TV himself, mostly because nobody else really did and he never wanted to sit in a room alone. It was too quiet. The only thing he liked to do was climb. Quote: As she felt Eva moving up to her Tyyne wasn't able to surpress a smile. The offer about swimming sounded fun, but after all she didn't know how to swim. "I can't. I never went swimming before." She imagined herself as a lifeguard or a swimmer in a nice suit and brightened. "But I could try, probably." Quote: Tea popped a little piece of potato in his mouth, taking the time to swallow it before he spoke again, "I think you'd be good at it, Coach says everyone is built from something. I've got strong muscles, so I'm a good gymnast, you look like you'd be fast in the water." He gestured to Eva, "Dunno what he's built for, kind of tiny. Finding stuff maybe." Quote: The squirt popped two fingers into his mouth, a slight tilt given to his head... Swimming..? Whazzat? He had never swam before, so he was kind of out of the loop for awhile.. Something about water...? He shifted a bit as he was mentioned, and then wondered if he was gonna be good for finding stuff later.. Hmm... He dropped out of the big-kid talk for now, looking instead out the window with a cheery smile. It was nice out today... He liked it when it was sunny. Quote: Tyyne offered a piece of potatoe to the toddler before taking a piece for herself. It sounded easy the way Teagan said it...and the best thing was that none of her siblings was interested in swimming. "You really think I look like I'm good in water ?" She asked again and smiled. "Thank you." Her eyes concentrated on Eva for a bit as she cocked her head to one side to look at the younger one. "He looks a bit similar to you, he could be good at gymnastics too." Ty mentioned. Quote: Tea looked Eva over again and nodded, "Yeah, he does doesn't he? He's a great climber too, maybe something like that. And yeah, you do." In an odd little goofy spark, he balanced a chunk on his nose, then flipped it up into the air and caught it in his mouth. "Maybe Coach could help find a good swim instructor, I need to learn too, Momma thinks I'm going to drown some time." Quote: The squirt took the piece, popping it into his mouth and chewing slowly.. His nose wrinkled, it was okay. Sweet like fruit. If it hadn't been for the sugar he probably wouldn't have liked it.. It wasn't that he liked sweet things, either, he just mostly liked fruit and green vegetables. He hated cake and some candies. He nestled his head against Tyyne's arm, wondering if maybe he could do something real big in climbing some day. Maybe he could be the best climber in the world- well, besides Tea. Quote: Tyyne thought about it for a moment and nodded. "I'll talk to Mum about it. Perhaps some others could come too and learn it. Then we don't have to fear beaches and bathtubes anymore...not that I do." The girl added quickly and hugged the toddler slightly. She wasn't so much into physical contact, but if it made him happy, why not ? Quote: Teagan nodded and sat in silence for a few minutes, until the waiter came back with two giant bowls of spicy smelling soup and their tea. It was interesting, because he always found jambalaya sweet, even when they used this many spices. Picking up a spoon, he held a little bit of it out to the joey, "Want to taste it first?" Quote: The boy brightened as he was hugged, but didn't seem to like the silence so much. He didn't like the quiet.. He fidgetted a bit, but was right back up when the food came. He pushed himself forward, nodding a bit and taking in a deep breath through his nose... Hm.. Interesting smell.. He didn't take the spoon, but instead just tasted the soup off of it while Tea held it. His nose wrinkled slightly.. It was.. Okay. He nodded his approval. Quote: Tyyne's mind was busy with imagining herself in a swimming suit, cheering on Teagan and taking care of Eva. It was just like on TV, but this time she was able to participate. "Are you and Eva...relatives ?" She asked out of sudden as she picked up the tea to smell it. Her mother loved drinking tea so she knew there were several different kinds. Quote: He smiled to the toddler's reaction. Lucky shot, he'd found something the joey liked. Taking a taste himself before responding to Tyyne, he was pleasantly surprised at how fresh the veggies were. Then, he turned his attention back to the blonde girl, "Nah, but Momma says we look a lot alike. He's a kangaroo, but he's got stripes, so I can see where she gets it." Quote: The squirt moved onto his knees now, reaching for a spoon and the bowl. He wanted to try eating by himself- although he'd only had a few soups before, so he wasn't too experienced with soup-eating. He tilted his head at the mention of him and Tea being related.. Nah, Tea was just his buddy. He had a momma and Eva had a Da and an Arafel.. And alla that. He began slurping up his soup, tail swaying. Quote: "He's a kangaroo ? Where's his bag ?" Tyyne asked as her eyes examined the toddler curiously. "My mum says, I'm a bit like a daisy. It's a flower." She explained as she sipped a bit of the tea. "Are you a kangaroo too ?" As she noticed the little joey eating she smiled slightly. "You're good at eating already, I think. I guess you're able to talk, but you just don't want to. It was like that with me." Quote: Tea smiled, flicking his black and grey tail, "I'm a lemur." Thinking over the joey's lack of a pouch, he came up with the simplest answer, "I guess cause he's a boy kangaroo." Quote: The boy watched the tail as he ate, and then glanced towards Tyyne as she mentioned him being able to talk, his ears drooping slightly. But he really did wanna talk, he had just... Given up trying. His Da had said it might be because kangaroos don't make any noise, so he'll be a bit delayed or something.. He didn't really understand, but he wanted to talk. So he just shrugged now and went back to slurping up his soup. Quote: "Oh yes...that makes sense." Tyyne blushed because of the obvious fault and decided to concentrate on her tea. "I didn't talk, because my sisters tried to teach me. I was just overwhelmed..." She petted Eva's head slightly before she looked at her watch. "Oh no, I'm already late. I was supposed to be home quarter of an hour ago." Her eyes grew wide. That couldn't happen to her, she was always the sensible one. Quote: Fishing out his wallet, and the money the boys' father had given him, he set out enough to pay for the meal. He waved for the waiter to bring two containers for the soup, afterall Eva seemed to really like it. "I could get Dee to drive? I think she said she'd be waiting at the fabric store." Quote: The boy frowned up at her, head tilting to one side, one ear up and the other down. He hoped he learned to talk soon- even though he had really stopped trying. He didn't understand how someone could use their mouth to try and make noises. It didn't make sense... He jumped when she was suddenly distressed, his frown growing. She was late to get home? Ohh.. His ears pinned back and he let them take care of it, setting down his spoon and fidgetting. Quote: Tyyne was close to cry as she heard Teagan's offer. "Yes please.." A deep frown was shown on her face as she looked around uncertainly. Hopefully her mother wasn't angry or too worried. "Can we...go then please ? You can come over to my house another time and we can play with my dolls or so..." She offered and looked at Eva. "You can of course come too." Quote: The lemur stood, laying a hand on her shoulder before he scooped the joey back onto his back. With one free hand, he picked the containers up, then held his other out to her, "Don't worry about it, if she gets angry it'll be my fault." Quote: The boy hugged the girl before being picked up, trying to make her feel better. He nestled into the older boy's back, frown still plastered on, ears flattened back. He was sad because she was sad, and it looked like she was gonna cry. It made him unhappy. Quote: "We need to tell Freize that we're going." Tyyne suddenly recognised as she got up. Hopefully her mother wouldn't be angry..."You...really would ?" Teagan was so brave. Quote: "Right" He sped to a fast walk, headed back to the front door of the mall and the store they had last seen the weremutt at, "Course I would, most things are my fault anyway." With a little smile he shifted Eva a little higher up so the child would be able to spot his father. "Once we find Dee, want to call you mom so she won't worry?" Quote: The boy rested his hands on the lemur's shoulders, sitting upright, looking around for his Da as soon as they were inside.The weremutt was at the counter of the store, having just paid for some clothes, and was picking up the bags when he spotted them, "Hey... What's going on?" He sensed some sort of tenseness in the atmosphere, his brows arching. And something must be going on because Eva looked pretty down. That meant someone else was. Eva wriggled for a moment, lips pressed into a thin line, brows furrowed. He felt bad.. And he couldn't fix things for Tyyne, so it made things worse. [.:Closed:.]

Gymnastics Class - Part Two Despite having told her he would do anything to be on the team, there were still a few things he refused to do. One of them happened to be the condition. He had to tuck his tail in as long as he was training. "No." He said bluntly, shrugging off the gymnast that was trying to usher him into a similar black leotard that bore that now familiar symbol. Honestly, he would have worn it fine, even tolerated the girly fit, but to tuck his tail in. That wasn't something he wanted to do. He just wouldn't do it then, having his tail tucked in made his skin crawl. Not to mention it messed up his balance. Why wouldn't this one give up? "No!" He shouted, feeling the hair on the back of his neck prickle. Coach must have told the older boy to get him dressed no matter what. When Tea had told her he was no good without his tail she had simply shaken her head and called it nonsense, that the talent was him, not his tail. He'd adjust. She was tough, this could last a while. Worst case... Well, worst case he could manage to get put into that horrible thing. But then again, if he refused, Coach could kick him off the team. And that would be at least a hundred times worse. What a choice... Eventually, he had given in, and it had turned out that Coach was right, the talent was him. Though, it did take a lot of getting used to. But now, after a few weeks of intense training, he was just as good without it as he was with it. And Coach had said something interesting. If he were ever allowed to compete, they would probably let him use his tail, and then, because of all of this challenged training, he would be at least twice as good as he had been before! That was amazing, because then, maybe he would be able to win one, and then he'd be even with Stacie, she'd become sort of a mentor for him even though she wasn't more than three years his senior. This was shaping up nicely...

Shoe Shopping - Part One "Tea? Come on, you really need new shoes, your old ones are all beat up." Ul waited by the door, slightly annoyed by how long it took him to get ready nowadays. Gah, he wasn't even a teenager yet and already he spent more time in front of the mirror than she did. Meanwhile, Teagan zipped up his jacket, mumbling under his breath. It took him a few minutes to get his shoes on, they were, afterall, a bit old and beat up, and most of the laces had come unwraveled. To be honest, he didn't want to go shopping, these shoes were just fine, they were familiar, and no matter what she thought, he was keeping them. There was, however, one reason that he was even going at all. One of the girls from the team was going to be there, Stacie, an older girl, and she had a surprise for him. He was going to meet her there as soon as he could get away from momma.

Shoe Shopping - Part Two Teagan stared out into the rest of the mall, barely giving a glance as his mother held up different styles of shoes, asking what he thought of each. After about five minutes of her dribble, he was bored. "I'm gonna go check some of the other stores, ok?" He asked, turning to look at his mother. Ul pouted, but nodded, he did need his space after all, "Fine." As soon as the words were out of her mouth, he was gone. Thinking for once, Teagan waited until he was out of her view to rush over to a payphone. After rummaging around in his pocket for the change he had brought, he dialed Stacie's cell phone number. "Come on.." He mumbled, perking up when she answered on the third ring. "Tea?" The voice asked, "Where are you?" He looked around, "I'm near the food court, meet me by the pizza place?" There was a moment of silence before the answered, "How about the book store? It's closer to the jewelry shop." He nodded, even though she couldn't see him, "Right, almost forgot." True, he hadn't forgotten, but he'd been hoping that maybe they could walk around a bit before going straight for the piercings. Because well, he was a bit scared, and she seemed to sense that, assuaging his fears with a simple statement, "It'll be ok Tea, it doesn't hurt as much as it looks like it will, just a little pinch, nothing worse than falling off the bars." He smiled, "Thanks Stace. I'll be there in a minute." Click. Feeling reassured, he hung the phone up and started the trek up toward the escalators that lead to the second floor of the book store, where he remembered there being the jewelery carts... "So how many are you going to get?" Stacie asked, perching herself up on the counter while Teagan shivered in the chair that reminded him oddly of the dentist. He looked a bit confused, "What do you mean?" She gave a little sigh, "Are you going to like only get one or one in each ear. Or ooh! You'd look so cute with two little rings in each!" Tea seemed a bit upset by the idea, it would mean more pain, but he couldn't turn down her smile, "Yeah, cute." He realized something, looking a bit confused, "Don't they need your parent's permission to do something like this?" She popped her bubblegum, "Nah, that's just for other stuff, like tongue piercings, they don't care so much about ear piercings." He nodded, looking up toward the older girl that stood in front of him, watching her take out a bottle of rubbing alcohol. She poured a bit on a cottonball, then realized she'd have to cut some of the hair on his ears down a bit, "I'm gonna have to trim the fur a bit, just so I can make sure it's all clean. Don't want you getting an infection." He nodded, knowing what the word meant, "Ok." As the woman trimmed away with her scissors, Tea turned his attention back to Stacie, "Do you think my mom will be mad?" The other gymnast shook her head, "Nah, not for more than a day or two at least. When I got mine done my mom said it looked adorable." The piercer set the scissors down, cleaning the trimmed patches with a fresh cottonball, "Ok, here we go, I'm going to do the two on the left side first, ok? Going to do them at the same time so it'll hurt less, now just relax." She loaded two silver rings into the gun, lining them up carefully, "Alright, now just take a deep breath and count to five with me, "One, two, three, four." She pulled the trigger in between three and four, "There, see, didn't even have to get to five, didn't hurt a bit did it?" He blinked, reaching up to see that the rings were actually there. Woah, he'd been so concentrated on her doing it at five that he hadn't even noticed. "Now how about we do the other side?" He nodded, a bit more confident now, Stacie simply watched with a smile. The woman reloaded the gun, then positioned it at the same spot on the other ear, "Count to five again." This time, he was prepared for her to do it between three and four. She started to count, though he was a bit more relaxed, "One, two, three, four, five!" On this second count off though, she waited until five to actually pull the trigger, confusing him out of pain again. "So, how does it look?" Tea asked his friend, climbing down out of the chair after paying the woman. Stacie flashed him a thumbs up between giggles, "It looks great Tea." He frowned, "Why're you laughing?" She stopped suddenly, "It was just, the look on your face when she tricked you, now I know what my mom was laughing about when I got mine repierced. He smiled, his mood having changed drastically from his moping earlier that same day. After all, what's not fun when you're at the mall with friends? Swinging the bag that held his antibiotics, he was supposed to flush his ears twice a day and move the rings around a lot so that they would heal right, they headed back to the food court, hoping to grab something to eat before they ran into his mother again.

Gymnastics Class - Part Three A few weeks more worth of training~"Very good, Tea!" Coach shouted, clapping her hands for him to come down from the rings. He hopped down, sticking his landing with a thud. "Really?" The lemur asked, brushing his wrapped hands together to respread the chalk. He was scheduled to go up on the bars next, but Coach seemed to have other ideas. He'd been practicing for a while now, and even without the use of his tail he was better than a lot of the people who'd been doing gymnastics for most of their lives, a fact which got him a lot of doubtful stares. Well, he didn't mind really, as long as they gave him a chance to prove himself. She walked him into her office, closing the door behind them quietly. By now he was curious, wondering why she seemed excited. And, in a way he thought only she could do, she summed it up into one short sentence, "You will compete." Teagan just stared at her for a long while, "What?" He wasn't so much confused as thinking it was a dream. But, hadn't she said the judges wouldn't let him compete? She smiled, a rare event, "I convinced them, you will compete in the next tournament." Pausing for a moment to let that sink in, she then continued, "I have something for you. A good luck charm." Moving behind her desk, she pulled out a wooden box and held it out to him, popping the lid open to reveal an old wooden bead bracelet that boasted two silver crosses.

Something has gone horribly wrong...
Written by Ul The doctors say I'm overreacting, that there's still a good chance he'll wake up. It's been twenty five long days, and my little Teagan is still laying still. It's like a dream, this can't really be happening, can it? For the first few days after they brought him I kept him at home, hoping he'd just wake up and ask for breakfast. But that didn't happen. Carrie convinced me to bring him to the hospital, and now they've got him tied down in the coma ward. It can't be a coma though, can it? He's only twelve for gods sake. They said he had started to drown, but the doctors didn't find any water in his lungs, what could have happened down there? I've heard Tyyne is in a similar condition. I would worry about her, maybe talk to Lena, but I just can't, I don't want to talk to anyone. I just want my little boy to be alright. I went to church today, for the first time in eight years, and I prayed. Please, let him be alright.

Welcome home Tea Meanwhile in Eden Teagan tried to move, but his whole body felt like lead. Where was he? It felt like he'd been asleep for days, weeks even... What had happened in that time, where was Tyy? He'd been with her, hadn't he? Yeah, they'd been talking about her dream and then they'd gone into the water and then... Oh no... She'd been taken by that lady, hadn't she?
He pulled himself up onto his haunches, still struggling to focus his eyes. It was dark here, and he seemed so small. The door was closed now, it had to be, but he would try anyway. After a few more minutes, though it could have been hours for all of the clarity he had, he managed to make his way across the room on all fours, stopping when he reached the large door. There was light on the other side, he could see it through the crack at the bottom, but how was he supposed to get through... Wait... He was small! He could flatten himself out and slide until the door. That would take a few tries, he was still clumsy in this body, but he had to give it a shot.Tyyne had stopped to sob and just waited for the return of the rose queen, but after all she hadn't come back yet. The young girl was worried. Would she ever be able to get back home to her friends and family ? Perhaps she wouldn't be fed and she'd just starve. Tears were dwelling out of her eyes again and she wiped them away quickly. What had they done to Teagan ? Hopefully he had been able to get home safely. She didn't want him to be involved, but somewhere deep inside her heart Tyyne feared to be lonely as well. Alone in Eden, in stupid damn beautiful Eden. She hit the ground with one fist and suddenly a tickling feeling started to take over her body. As she stopped touching it with her hand the emotion was gone again. What was going on ? With a few cuts and bruises, Teagan managed to wedge his way under the door and into the bright sunlight of Eden. Now, normally the boy wasn't the aggressive sort, but combine raw animal instinct with a missing friend, and he was about as dangerous as a lion that's been riled up with a stick. He must have been a strange sight in this "paradise", a lemur with his teeth bared and his fur matted up with blood and dirt, charging across the landscape, but he honestly didn't care anymore. He was going to find his friend, and they would go home, and everything would be normal again.
The mushrooms that had been helping lily seemed to have noticed him, as a few flung themself at the primate, hoping to slow him down before he could interrupt things. Whenever too many would take hold though, the lemur would drop into a roll to shake them off, leaving a trail of flattened fungi behind. Once he reached the flowers however, it was a whole different story. A few sprayed pollen and spores at him, landing enough shots in his eyes that the boy led out a series of loud screeches, distracted from his purpose long enough to start shredding them in his teeth.Tyyne heard loud yelps and cries from further away, but she was far too distracted to take care. She stared at her hands in disbelieve and touched the soil once again. Her hands slowly dissolved into ...roots ! She bit her lip hardly and it almost started to bleed. There had to be a lock somewhere hadn't it ? Perhaps she could open it with this new trick. Just very, very perhaps. The girl tried to concentrate hardly on her hands, but the trick just didn't work. She needed help, she would die here otherwise. "HELP !" Tyyne cried out in dispair and out of sudden her hands turned into roots. Tea's ears shot forward, the cry reminding him why he had come out into this hell hole in the first place. Giving one last snarl to the patch of flowers, this one earned him a root whip to the face, he turned and kept running, hoping to get out of their range and toward his friend. He might have been better off jumping that running, but then he would run the risk of landing directly on one of those bloody things. So he skipped the shortcut and pushed himself harder, eyes going wide as the cage came into view.
As he neared it, the ground here seemed to have some ivy hidden in the grass and thus it was harder to keep from being snared for more than a few seconds, he let out another series of screeches, hoping his friend could hear him. He was about to leap for the cage, aiming to land on the bars, when a particularly thick rope of ivy came crashing down on his back, pinning him to the ground just a few feet away.Finally Tyyne noticed the Lemur. "TEAGAN !" He had come to rescue her, he was so brave, he was awesome, he was...pinned down by ivy. The girl screamed in pure horror as she got to her feet and her hands reverted back to normal again. "Tea. Tea, can you hear me ? I can do a trick with my hands. They can change. Perhaps I can..." She concentrated on her hands but it just didn't work out anymore. Tyyne knew she needed to help quickly, but she just wasn't able to. Holding back the tears was just too hard for the girl and so she started to cry again. "The Queen, she slapped me. She..." Her voice dissolved as she just stared at the friend. The lemur clawed at the ground, only managing to drag a few handfuls of soil closer to himself. The ivy didn't have thorns as far as he could tell, but it seemed to, wrapping itself around him in a tight squeeze. He let out another screech, digging his claws into the plant. Tyy was saying something, he could tell. He needed to calm down, there had to be a way out of this, he wasn't going to get crushed by some stupid plant in some stupid Eden. The Queen? Could that be the rose lady that lily had been talking about? No one got away with slapping one of his friends.
With a loud screech that sounded much like a human "No", Teagan dug his teeth into the plant, nearly blacking out when it slammed him headfirst into the ground. The ground, she had said she could do a trick with her hands, like he could do tricks with his tail. Think Tea. Think. How could he tell her to try again, but not try as hard as she had been?Tyyne's golden eyes watched Teagan intensively. She needed to calm down, she needed to breath slowly. Quickly the girl sat down again and tried to control her senses. She closed her eyes, she listened to Teagan's voice. He needed her help, she was the only one who could help here now. There weren't any superheros, who would rescue her and her friend. This wasn't a TV show, this was real. Tyyne sighed as she slowly felt how her hands dissolved and reappeared as fragile roots. The lock...she needed to open it. Her eyes flashed open and she quickly moved towards the small golden bolt. The roots dug into the hole and she tried to open it as fast as possible. Sweat was running down her face and she bit her lower lip hardly. Teagan, she needed to help Teagan. Out of sudden there was a click and the cage was opened. Teagan let out a supportive screech when the lock clicked open, cut off when the root grabbed hold of him again. He kicked his back legs violently, trying to get to her. This stupid thing didn't know when to quit. Of course, it had no reason to quit, it was winning. What would anything in this place have to fear from a four pound squirt like him? He was useless here, he needed to be by Tyyne's side to be of any good.Tyyne pushed the door of the cage open as she suddenly heard someone yelling. The rose queen was coming back ! "Teagan, we need to get back home. Quick, quick." The girl almost stumbled across the ivy as she moved towards the little Lemur. Her hands grabbed him gently as she tried to pull him out of the misery. The ivy was strong though and she had to pull with all of her strength, because the queen was coming closer pretty quickly. Her naked feet decided to stomp on the plant, which yelped and fled quickly. The Lemur was free ! Tyyne picked him up very carefully and started to run back towards the door. This was the only way out. Tea scuttled up his friend's arm, attaching himself to her shoulder. He didn't seem to notice that he was digging his claws in, he was too freaked out to loosen his hold. Home. Yes, they had to go home, or they'd be stuck here. He didn't want to stay here. Eden was bad.Tyyne whinced as she felt Teagan's claws, but was much too occupied with running towards the door to say anything. She noticed how the grass tried to hold her back and how everyone came closer, especially the queen. "Don't let her go ! I'm the only plant of love, don't let her go !" The rose screamed in despair as Tyyne reached the door's handle and pulled it open quickly. The dark hallways was still there, hopefully she'd find a way out. The bare feet hasted along the way into the darkness and she just hoped Teagan was able to hold on. As she arrived inside the room they had come from, she suddenly wasn't able to run anymore and fainted. It didn't take long though, for his mother to notice he was awake. After she got back from the shower she'd been forced to take that is. Once she opened that door though, her mood jumped. He was awake! Albeit a bit dazed. Quickly, she rushed to his side, having to restrain herself from enveloping him in a hug. Something was different though, he seemed calmer, but maybe that was the medications they had pumped into him. And what was that scar on his face...?

Well what if I don't want to rest? "Mom! I can walk by myself!" Teagan protested, trying to yank himself out of the wheelchair his mother had confined him to. Her only answer was a stern glare as she wheeled him through the hospital parking lot toward the van. He rolled his eyes, giving up and slouching back into the chair. At the very least she could have let him take a shower before they left, but she had said he shouldn't stand for that long, so she would give him a bath when they got home. It was frustrating, not being allowed to move or call anyone when he needed to know if Tyyne was alright. Ul wasn't trying to be so constricting, she was just worried. After all, how could she be expected to let him take risks like that when he'd been in a coma?! The doctors said he needed to be careful for a little while, so she was going to make sure he was. Now, maybe it was a little unreasonable to keep him from using the phone immediately after he'd woken up, but this thing with Tyyne seemed to stress him out, so she had made him rest for a while instead. He didn't appreciate it, obviously, but he also hadn't appreciated how she was upset when he had pierced his ears. She was only trying to look out for his best interests. "Tea," She started, helping him up into the seat despite his resistance, "Against my better judgement, I'm going to keep letting you go to your training. But you have to keep it low impact for a day or two, and take lots of naps, ok?" At this, the boy's face lit up. He would have thrown a fit if she'd kept him from that, obviously she figured this compromise was better than a fit. Buckling himself into the seat as she folded up the chair, he smiled and nodded, "Yes ma'am. But what about the competition?" She took a deep breath, "We'll see..."

Parallel bars - Silver Rhythmic floor - Silver The rings - Gold EdenProject As the joyous emotion took hold of the Lemur boy he felt a tickling sensation running down his whole body. He started to shiver and felt suddenly very uncomfortable. The crowd just seemed to stare at him as his whole body started to ache.
Lookind at his hands he noticed that he had started to glow. The pain started to vanish but the glow became so intense that neither Teagan nor the people were able to see what was going on.
As the light vanished something had happened...Teagan had become a teenager.
Tyyne gasped and her eyes widened. Wow.

Reflecting Looking back on everything that's happened since I was born, i don't know, it just all seems kind of strange, foreign. Momma says I'm just special, and that it's a good thing I'm not like everyone else. But what if I am supposed to be like them? I don't know. I guess I'm just being a moody teenager like Dee. Well, the tournament was amazing. I got two silvers and a gold! I only really feel like I earned one of them though, my silver from the rhythmic floor routine with Beckie, so that's the only one I'm going to wear. Momma thinks it's kind of silly, that I should just put all three up on the wall of my room and be happy that way instead of keeping one of my lower ones pinned to my chest. What does she know anyway? I got this medal doing something I'd never done before, and I helped my friend doing it. There's something Momma doesn't know about. After the tournament, I got my very first real kiss. From Beckie. I don't think I like her that way though. I wish it had been... Nevermind.
