Quote: Prompt 8 (Marshmallow Snow): Fresh-fallen snow coats Destiny City. It’s pristine and crisp, and it crunches as you walk through it. It may be a few inches deep, but it doesn’t seem to go above your calves when walking. At first, it’s easy enough to walk through, but gradually you realize that it’s getting harder to move. Every step you take feels like the snow is pulling you back in, and if you get a good look you might realize that sticky white fluff is clinging to you. The more you walk, the more it pulls, until you’re almost completely stuck. Something about the snow smells oddly sweet, and the tacky, marshmallow-like snow seems like it’s suddenly become a prison. The more you try to break free, the stickier it gets, and you’d better hope you don’t fall down. The more you struggle the harder it is to escape, but if you manage to stay still for a few minutes, the marshmallow will freeze and crystallize. When you move again, the snow will turn into a powdery dust and you can break free easily. The only good thing about this is that you won’t starve if you get trapped–the snow tastes just like marshmallows. It had been a while since Varda had decided to power up and do... something. She wasn't sure what exactly that something was, but she knew that she was interested in all of the strange stuff that happened in Destiny City during the holidays. Not much else went on during the year unless the Dark Mirror got roped into something having to do with the Negaverse or something finally started happening within Mirrorspace, so she was always ready to go out during the holidays since she wouldn't be out just to collect energy. What had drawn her attention this night was the smell of marshmallows. It was almost overwhelming, almost to a sickening degree. And it didn't smell like there was some sort of fire going on, so following her nose she had found some freshly fallen snow in the park that she was standing near, still trying to figure out what it was. Out of an abundance of caution, she knelt down and touched the snow just in case something weird was going on. And weird it was. As she pulled her gloved hand back, the snow appeared to be gripping onto it, like melted marshmallow. It seemed she had found the culprit, but where could it have possibly come from?

Vela had been out and about this holiday season and she was doing a lot of things and a lot of training while she was out and about. She moved into what she thought was snow only to find her feet getting stuck. She frowned and then she saw someone else nearby and she frowned again she should have sensed them sooner and she had missed them. She rolled her eyes, they felt chaotic but they didn't look like a corrupt or a nega. She thought she had met a dark mirror before and they hadn't fought her. She wasn't really sure what the deal was with the dark mirrors. She thought they gathered energy, but she didn't think they normally hurt people. She could be wrong though. She attempted to get her feet out of the snow and couldn't do it. She also couldn't dance like this so what the heck was she supposed to do? Since dancing was part of her power. She so in a pickle and she didn't like it one bit. "Sooo, are we fighting, I don't think it's much of a fair fight if we are both stuck in this goo.." She said annoyed.

Varda was growling at the snow and attempting to remove her finger, barely noticing that someone else was there. Eventually she managed to remove her finger, but having her whole glove removed and landing on her behind at the force at which she had to pull it. And now one of her hands would more easily freeze. Great. It wasn't until she heard the Senshi talking that Varda noticed she was there. "I don't see the point in fighting right now. I like a fight where we can at least both move. With this... stuff, if we accidentally stepped in it while fighting, that could cause major problems." She liked to fight, but she liked fair fights. "Do you think you can get out of there by yourself? I can help if you want it."MiddyGlow apologies for responding so late! gonk

Vela smirked and burned the snow around her with her embers and she said "Yea I think I can handle it, I don't need your help. But I don't see why we should not battle??" She frowned and shook her head disappointed that this might fizzle out. She had a lot to do but the practice as a senhi was always good. She had missed out on so much while she was a corrupt senshi her connection to her world had been cut off. Now knowing what it felt like she never wanted to be cut off from it again. Vela needed her. She needed her world. It was important. "Well whatever if you don't want to fight I guess we don't have to." She watched them closely to make sure this wasn't a trick. She didn't want a knife in her back because she turned on an enemy. "I can clear our battle ground and we can get to this fairly, what do you say?" She offered.

The Senshi had hit one of Varda's weaknesses, and the Dark Mirror fell straight into it. She smirked at the other. "Well, now I can't object to a spar if you do that." She said, laughing a bit afterwards. It was the first time an Order Senshi had just wanted to... fight to fight rather than getting mad at the Dark Mirror and equating her with the Negaverse. For the moment she wondered if the Senshi would be able to burn her glove too. She would get it back next time of course, but in the back of her mind she was wondering how much fire it could take. Her guess was probably none, but maybe magic changed things? Even as a Super she still wasn't sure about what all of this "magic" could and couldn't do. She stood a few feet away from the sticky snow, making sure that she had enough room just in case it decided to explode or send out molten snow flakes that she could be hit with when the Senshi got rid of it. MiddyGlow Sorry for taking so long to reply!

Vela used one of her lower level attacks to rain embers down on their battle area to clear the sticky snow away. She smiled at the agreement they had made to spar. Practice fighting was a good thing after all. Vela wasn't actually sure the dark mirror senshi had anything to do with the negaverse in the first place, when she had been in the negaverse she didn't recall ever working with them. She nodded once she was ready and then said "I'm ready if you are." Dance of embers Vela dances around a bonfire bidding the flames to burn higher and higher embers flying into the air. The enemies the embers fall on receive the feeling of small stinging burns. (Lasts 30 sec. ) (Can be used twice per battle) 5 ft range. (Only feels like burning)

Vela grinned, readying her attack stance. "Well then, let's do this!" She said, now rushing toward the other Senshi and when she was finally close to the other she held her fist out, intending on hitting the Senshi square in the face. She was glad to be doing a good old fashioned spar. She hadn't done one of them in a while and her body was itching for the fight!

Vela smiled as they rushed towards her not using magic, so she didn't use any more of her magic either. She attempted to block with her forearms mostly blocking the blow but feeling the hit up her arms. She then jumped back and ran forward to try to kick her target.

Ooh, this was so much fun! Unfortunately physics had decided that Varda had been going to quickly to quite stop and block the kick that had been aimed her way and felt it in her side as she attempted to dodge. The full force wasn't there, but it still hurt! Nothing she wasn't used to however, and with that she once again aimed a fist, this time at the Order Senshi's chest!

This time Vela wasn't so lucky and was hit in the chest and the wind was knocked out of her. She stumbled back and was thrown a little off balance.

It looked like the Senshi had taken that punch squarely and Varda couldn't help feeling a bit bad about it. "You okay? We can stop if you want." She knew that even if some Senshi or Agents or Knights or whatever were at higher stages, that didn't mean they were still comfortable with fighting, so she never wanted to push someone who was willing to fight too far. That was no way to encourage sparring with each other again.

Vela got back up and said "I'm alright, besides if you think about it in a real battle the opponent isn't going to ask if you are ok, even if the wind gets knocked out of you." She said with a nod "Bit longer and then we can get end this." She said getting her footing again.

Well, Varda was glad that her opponent was all right, but it was really starting to get late. "Another time, when we have more time." She grinned. "It's getting late now though and as much as I would like to stay up and spar into the night, I do have to get up early tomorrow." She stretched her arms a bit. "But I'll keep an eye out for you! How does that sound?"

Vela smiled and nodded "Sounds good till next time." She said warmly. Then she headed off to keep patrolling and then head home. (Fin)
