Once more Elric took the skies, he threw the first half of his lance into the ground. As he dropped, he slammed the second half back in, the force spreading wind all around. With the help of Elric and Nina, the towns firemen managed to calm the flames down considerably. What would take the townspeople hours to combat took minutes instead. The townspeople cheered and applauded their efforts. The kids really did think of them as superheroes though. "You're so cool, did you see that, he went like, whoosh! And she was all boom!" "Freezing the fire, whirl winding it, you two are so awesome!"

Nina blushed a little and smiled as they were applauded. "Aw thanks." she said to the kids. She got down on her knees and held her hands in front of her. With some concentration she formed three medium sized crystal marbles with a fire in the center. Her birth mark faded to a light grey "Alright kids, lets see how fast you are." She said, putting two of the crystals down and putting the other in her palm. "Try and catch it" she said, letting kids take turns at trying to take the marbles from her hand. Once all three had been given away she waved the kids good bye then looked to Elric. "ok, I'm ready." She said holding up her arms. For her making crystals was natural but very draining. It usually takes a while to fully recover or just a good long nap. The crystals she made had nothing special to them, she could condense an element into them but breaking the marbles wouldn't do anything other than just let the little magic in them out.

The kids played with Nina whimsically until they got the marbles. The smiled and thanked her for them, running off to go show the other kids down the block what they got from her. Elric shook his head. "Those crazy kids..." He muttered and turned to Nina. "Heh, alright then, hopefully nothing else slows us down. I'd hate to be the purse snatcher that comes across you. You were not easy on the boys when we were growing up at all."

Nina chuckled and nodded. "yeah, even after making those marbles I could catch them." She said, still holding out her arms. "My legs are asleep though so I'm kinda stuck. Please help." She said, blushing some.

Elric chuckled, one of the few times he could laugh at her misfortunes. "Sure thing, cousin." That being said, he helped her back up to her feet, taking her arm over his shoulder and helped her walk back home. her little 7 year old little sister was waiting outside for her on the porch. "Mom, dad, Nina and Elric are back!"

Nina smiled and hugged Elric some. "I'm sure the blood will be back in my legs before we get home." She said. As they walked she was able to eventually let go of Elric. Her first few steps were slow as her legs still tingled but soon enough she was walking again. When they neared her house she saw her sister and waved to her. She soon saw her mother walk onto the pouch as her sister had called for her. Nina waved again and Mina waved back. "what kept you two?" She asked as they got closer.

"Oh you know, getting mobbed, playing superheroes, that sort of stuff. The usual, Aunty Mina, just the usual." Said Elric sarcastically, truth be told it happened quiet a lot. His uncle Eric walked outside carrying Nina's 3 year old little brother. Eric wanted a son, it just one more try before Mina decided to pop out one. Better late than never. For awhile he thought they would be left with girls if they kept trying. "Playing superhero huh? Let me guess, the flash fires?" He asked his daughter.

"Oh no how horrible." Mina said chuckling some. She turned some as she heard Eric and smiled. "Yeah dad, they were pretty big ones too. It took both me, Elric, and the fire department to take care of them this time." Nina said, smiling and waving to her little brother. Her little brother smiled and waved back. "But we were able to handle it no problem. I was also able to make three marbles for the kids afterwards."

Eric sighed at that story. "Least you two are okay, the environmental crisis is getting worse every year. Not even Uni is safe from it, and that's in the sky." Nina's little brother Skylar continued to wave at his older sister happily. He reached outward to grab her. Nini!" He said in his own little way. "And also Nina, you shouldn't be using your powers like that to play around with the kids, especially that one. You know how it affects you.." He warned, many of times he had to carry her back to her room when she was exhausted, the girl didn't listen to him.

Nina smiled and held out her hand to her little brother, letting him grab it. "Hey Skylar." She giggled. She looked up to her father and sighed. "Dad I know but it's fun seeing those kids happy. And it's not like I over exerted my self this time. I was able to walk home and only needed help getting up because my legs fell asleep." She said.

That answer of hers was expected. He swore sometimes she took daddy as a joke. "Well, just make sure you don't. Did you you two manage to find anything at the auctions today?" He asked, wondering if they found another Irrigan original. "Yeah we sure did, Uncle Eric. Nina, show him what you got." Said her cousin.

Mina pat Eric on the shoulder, she recognized the look he had on his face.
Nina smiled and let go of her brother. She stepped back and pulled the katana from her bag. "I don't know what the name is but it's pretty neat. It can create blades of elecricity. Up to six at a time and they look like ghosts." She smiled. "it's pretty cool."

Eric looked at his wife and smiled. She knew him so well. Looking at the Katana, his face was the same as the others, awe. He whistled after hearing it's description. "Wow, what a weapon. Those Irrigan Originals are something else. How come you didn't use that weapon, Mina?"

"Cause I never had it. That must have been one of the weapons my great grandfather sold." Mina said. Nina held out the sword to let her mother look at it. Mina took the sword and looked it over. "wow, it's been kept in pretty good condition." She said. Nina nodded and smiled. "The edge is dull so if I want to cut more than just bamboo I'll have to get it sharpened." Nina said.

"Hmm, perhaps Eca or Irvin can sharpen it for you. I think they were coming over today, said it was some important discovery." He said to his nephew and daughter. "Oooh! Can I see it? Can I use it? Please!" Asked the excited sister. She wanted a cool weapon like her mother and older sister. (I really can't find a good name for her. Gena?)
