Flora and Ember were looking for nuke in the meadows; only to realize they weren't gonna find him D8 So rather than pester random adults; they set off in search of Kindle <3

Flora: -realizes that Nuke isn't gonna come out and play and nudges Ember- "I think it's just gonna be us Ember... <3"

Ember: Oh... -looks disappointed- Ok. What'cha wanna do?

Flora: uuuum.... wanna go play with your older brother Kindle? He's kinda fun!

Ember: Oh yeah! He's sooooo much fun to annoy ^^ -prances off to find him-

Kindle: -looks around, feeling his eminent doom-

Flora: -smiles and giggles and follows after Ember- "This is gonna be fun~" -looks around and calls out Kindles name- "KiiiiIIIIIiiiiindle! Where aaaAAAAAaaare you?"

Ember: -giggles and does the same- Kiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiindle! KiiiIIIIIIIIiiiiindle!!!

Kindle: -hears both girls calling his name, his ears now flat against his skull- Oh no... -looks around for a place to hide-

Flora: -stops and lifts her nose- "*sniffsniff* I smell burning...." -turns towards Kindles direction and starts moving in that direction- "Ember this way! 8D"

Ember: -sniffs the air as well- I smell it too! The scent of his fear is strong... -growls and the idea of the hunt- We are SO gonna get him.

Kindle: -hearing the sound of them zeroing in on his position, Kindle started to sweat- Oh god... -dashes off through the woods in an attempt to lose them-

Flora: -nods her head straining her ears to listen for any sign of Kindle- "pfft; what a scaredy cat; he's running away!" -giggles at the thought that the two of them are terrifying and runs through the bushes and under brushes; jumping over the taller ones when she can't just run straight through them- "Kiiindle~ come out come out where ever you are!"

Ember: -laughs at Flora's taunting- Yeah! You big butthead... -races through the brush as well, dodging the branches that Flora's passing has disturbed- Buwahahahahaha! -does the evil laugh Nuke taught her-

Kindle: -hears them catching up to him- Crap! -quickly looking around for the largest clutch of bushes he jumps behind it, quieting himself instantly- Hmm... -waits for them to pass by-

Flora: -comes to a hault as she see's a bush shaking and smoking and smiles as she runs around the bush and jumps onto Kindle- "HI KINDLE!" -excited and nuzzles him- "We found you!"

Ember: -as Flora jumps on him Ember barks out a laugh- Got you good Kindle!

Kindle: -startles about 2 feet off the ground before trying his best to regain composure- *cough* Ahem... Why, whatever do you mean? >.>;; I would have to be lost to be found. -deliberately misunderstanding- What are you two ladies doing out here by yourselves anyway? -attempts the stern father voice-

Flora: *laughs at Kindle and smiles up at him and ember with sparkling giggling eyes- "We're not out here by ourselves silly; we're with you!" -giggles and laughs- "Isn't that right Ember? we're not alone so long as we have an adult with us!!!" 83

Ember: Yeah! -sticks her tongue out at her brother- Though don't let that go to your head, you're not that much older than us.

Kindle: -sticks his tongue out at Ember is response- I am older though, and age matters. -holds his head up proud, angling his neck just so-

Flora: I think you're really old Kindle!!" -nods her head at the thought- "I mean.... he is way older than us Ember! He's almost as old as my mommy! <3" -smiles and wiggles her tail- "Or atleast that's what mommy says..."


Ember: Hehe... -she giggles at Flora's jibe- Yeah... -peers up at Kindle- Are those wrinkles? -winks at Flora-

Kindle: -startles out of his pose, wide eyes looking at them both- Excuse me? -offended voice- I'm no where NEAR as old as your mother Flora, I was a fawn when I met her. And Ember! -whips his head to face her- Don't you start sassing me little girl, or i'll tell dad about what you've been doing.


Flora: D8 -looks extremely hurt that she's been yelled at and looks down at the ground pawing at the dirt- "I was just sayin' what my mommy told me..." -mutters quietly and moves to stand next to Ember hiding her face into Embers side-

Ember: -ears back at Kindle's scolding- You don't have to be a meanie about it... We were just playing...-eyes tear up just a little-

Kindle: D: No... I was... -at a loss- I didn't mean to yell. I'm sorry. -sidles up beside them and nuzzles them each on the tops of their heads- I didn't mean to be a butthead about it.


Flora: -sniffles and nuzzles into Ember's side- "Embers right you're a meanie." -looks up at him and sniffles her eyes tearing up to- "We were only playing; you didn't have to get so upset!"

Ember: -nuzzles Flora trying to make her feel better- *sniffles*

Kindle: D:!! -Aw crap- Oh, please don't be upset... I didn't mean to snap! What'll it take to make you both feel better? -big pleading eyes-


Flora: -lays her head on top of Ember's back and looks up at Kindle with big sad eyes- "Teach Ember how to set stuff on fire?"


Ember: D: -her jaw drops at this PERFECT suggestion- Holy herla Flora... -puppy eyes at Kindle- Pweeeeeeese?

Kindle: -while his insides try to melt as Flora does her cute thing, his nose flares, smelling disaster- Why....do you want to light things on fire? -hopes to convince them that this is folly- There is such a large danger in doing that, you could light the entire forest aflame, killing or hurting so many things... Do you understand the ramifications this could entail? -is serious business-

Flora: *doesn't understand half those words but she pretends that she does anyways* "umm.. uh... ah.... but but what if Ember accidentally sets something on fire! and she doesn't know how it happened?! how is she gonna know how to make it stop? Or how to not let that happen again?" -looks to Ember- "Embers really strong right ember? She could set the whole forest on fire in her sleep on accident D8"


Ember: -nods rapidly- I've done it before, you just didn't know about it.

Kindle: -looks concerned at this- Well...I guess that makes sense. Maybe I should talk to father first though... -looks into the distance as if searching for 'Suvius-

Flora: -looks up at Kindle and paws at the ground moving up a bit closer to him trying to NOT let him think about this cause then Ember will get bored again and Flora doesn't like a bored Ember- "But... but... then you'd be leaving us alone in the woods... a-a-and what if Ember sets something on fire on accident again? And it spreads! and it catches all those pretty flowers on fire?? And we get caught in it!!!" -suddenly feels like this might ACTUALLY happen- "I DON'T WANT TO DIE IN A FIRE T^T" -starts to cry-


Kindle: -sputters at this new development- But....i... >.<

Ember: -takes a step back from the crying Flora, processing what she just said- Bu...but Flora. -her large glowing eyes tearing up- Are you afraid of me?! -has a sudden flash of Flora running scared all because of Ember, and starts to shake- I...I... -is overwhelmed-


Flora turned around in a flash; the tears gone and her eyes wide; realizing what she'd just said; what she'd just admitted and her little heart sinks; her tail going down along with her ears; flattening against her body in an upset manner. "No! no! Ember I'm not scared of you! I'll never be scared of you! you and your sister are my bestest friends! I know you wouldn't let me get hurt <3 I know that!" She walked up to her carefully if Ember would let her and nudge her nose against Ember's nose. "I'm just trying to get your brother to teach you how to set stuff on fire! so you can be an even better Karma than you already are! silly <3 if I'm not afraid of nuke and his scary mouth; why would I be afraid of you?"


Ember: -her eyes still full of tears she let Flora nuzzle her nose, replying to her heartfelt speech while sniffling- Nuke's mouth isn't scary...it's funny. -trying to blink away the last of her tears- I...I don't think I want to learn how to light things on fire anymore... Kindle's right, it could be bad for all of us. -her long tail between her legs, showing how distressed she still is- I dun wanna hurt anyone. -Ember could NEVER be mad at Flora, but she's still very upset about the vision of herself burning everything she holds dear-

Kindle: Oh dear one... -steps over to her other side, nuzzling behind her ear in an attempt to comfort her- I'm sorry, you shouldn't have to worry about things like this at such a young age. -his eyes full of sorrow-


Flora: Don't be sad Ember... it makes me sad too! Becuase my love for you would break my heart in two!" -nuzzles her and sticks super close to her- "Wanna go to my happy place Ember? It's really pretty and makes me think of you <3" -looks up at Kindle- "Is that ok?? if she see's our secret spot?"

Kindle: Of course... -it pains him to lose that connection of secrecy between him and Flora, but Ember looked to heartbroken- It's beautiful Ember, it'll cheer you up immediately.

Ember: Secret spot? -between the promise of this new place, and Flora's assurance that she wasn't afraid of Ember, the glowing eyes herla girl started to feel better- Is it SUPER pretty? -her tail loosening as her ears perked up-

Flora: -nods her head excitedly- "Yeah! yeah! come on! it's so pretty Ember! almost as pretty as you are! the flowers are all fire lookin'! It's really cool! come on! come on! you're gonna love it!" -giggles excitedly and runs off towards the clearing all excited and what not-
