Hello again! I bet you all thought I was dead, but I'm not. Just busy as Mavis knows what. So I won't bore you to death with me...BOTHER YOURSELF WITH THIS!
I walked into the familiar surroundings of the main room of Chase's "palace." I made my way to the kitchen where I pulled out some food for Panina and her new friend, whom I'm calling Atticus after a book I read once. While they ate, I leisurely played with the water that flowed freely in the fountain. I don't normally admire my reflection, but I couldn't help it today. Chase's words from yesterday echoed in my mind. I blushed at the thought ad quickly hit my cheek. I can't have such thoughts, Chase was merely testing my powers, he said so himself! I'm not quite sure anymore, I'll just have to find out somehow.
"Effori, my dear?"
I turned my head towards the entrance and saw Chase accompanied by Jack Spicer and what's her face. I inwardly chuckled at my pun, she was only a face.
"Chase, what did I say about the flirtatious attitude?" I said, trying to sound uncaring.
Said man chuckled and made his way over to me, "still such a cold attitude even when we have guest?" I rolled my eyes at him and turned my attention to Jack. Bingo. I gave him a smirk, "so we finally meet, Jack Spicer?" he let out a girlish scream.
"You know my name?!"
I chuckled, "yes I do, Chase told me you see." He let out another high pitched squeal, he must be a big fan of Chase's. "So Chase, why is Jack here?" I asked, turning my attention back to my partner. "He's here to help you with your training." I raised an eyebrow at him as he sat beside me. "You too will be stimulating each other emotionally for the time being." I smirked at the opportunity that sat in front of me, "so we'll be lovers of sorts?" I saw Chase's eyes flicker with annoyance wile Jack's entire demeanor lit up. I looked over to Jack and winked at him, causing him to blush a crimson color. This could be interesting.
Merveille gasped in awe at the mere sight of the Xiolin Temple. She had never once left the village for any reason, so this was a whole new experience for her. She clasped her hands to her cheeks as her eyes sparkled. She turned to Clay, "You all really live here?!"
"Yep, sure do, welcome to the Xiolin Temple"
The African girl looked around once more as another part of the temple came into view. This place seemed never ending! She looked back to where the others were standing by the door along with a new face. She cautiously walked over to the older man and bowed, "H-Hello, my name is Merveille, I am Effori's younger sister. Sorry for all the trouble she caused you" she said meekly. The man gave a light chuckle, "No need my dear, besides my young monks were getting a bit to cocky as it was." Said teens gave their own protest, causing the girl to giggle. The man lead the others and Merveille into the house, introducing himself as Master Fung . "I must thank you for your cooperation on the matter at hand, despite how difficult this must be for you" she nodded and thanked him for his consideration. "I know the journey was long and you appeared to have had a very long day, so we will allow you to rest. We will talk more in the morning." "Thank you again, it has been a interesting day to say the least" she mused, she was then lead to a room with a series of stalls. Which she assumed where the monks "bedrooms" of sorts. Master Fung showed her to an empty stall and explained that this would be hers for the time being, "I know you're probably tired of me saying this, but thank you again for your hospitality and good night" "Good night Merveille."
