Greetings readers! I've been working nonstop for all of you to get the chapters up as fast as possible. Here is the next chapter for all of you then. I hope you enjoy becauseit was really fun to make. Please remember to review for me afterwards.
Val
I continued to train Zak for a little longer, although he was obviously distracted from training. After a while he got how to stay on the cloud. "Alright I got it." Zak said triumphantly as I sat on my own separate cloud.
"Good now we'll be able to leave tonight then." I said as I jumped down from my cloud.
"Yeah." Zak said as he looked away from me.
"Zak you aren't going with me if you are going to be so upset about leaving your parents." I said which got him to look at me.
"I'm going whether you want me to or not. I'm still just sad over how my mom reacted to the news." Zak said as he got off of the cloud I had made for him. It vanished quickly.
"Well we have to do what we have to do. Its not our decision." I stated as I heard something over near the trees.
"Yeah but you could let my family come with us." Zak said as I fixed my eyes on the spot.
"It wouldn't be the best decision Zak. There are going to be dangers on our journey that I doubt you would want your parents to have to deal with." I stated as I noticed a black tail poke out from behind the bush I was watching.
"What are you looking at?" Zak asked as he turned to where I was watching. I gave a sharp whistle and a second later Bodolf's head poked out from behind the bush.
"Good afternoon Bodolf." I greeted as I walked over to him.
"Good afternoon children. I wanted to see how you two were doing." Bodolf said as he came out of the bush to meet us.
"We're fine Bodolf." Zak said as I looked Bodolf in the eyes.
"We're training right now and tonight we're going to be leaving to find the other four." I stated as I heard his pack in the distance.
"I just wanted to check in with you two. I hope your journey goes well." Bodolf said before he trotted off for his pack.
"Come on." I said as I started to walk back for the airship.
"I'm done training for today Val. I would rather spend the rest of the day with my family before we leave." Zak said as he walked inside.
"Alright then." I said simply as I went inside and headed for my room. I stayed in there until nightfall and then I gathered my things and went to get Zak. I found him in the living room with Fisk and Komodo. "Zak." I said pointing to the window to show him it was dark.
Zak looked up at me and then got up. "Let me say goodbye to my parents first." Zak said as he walked over to me.
"I'll be outside waiting then." I said as I started to walk out. I got outside and created a cloud big enough for us both to be on and keep out things on as well.
"Bye mom." Zak said as he came outside with his things. "What the hell?" Zak questioned as he saw my custom made cloud.
"What? I can change the shape of a cloud if I want to." I said as I continued to shape the cloud to where neither of us would fall off of it. I helped him up onto the cloud. "Did you say your goodbyes?" I questioned him as I noticed his eyes had sleep deprivation in them.
"Yeah." Zak said as he laid back on the cloud.
"Go to sleep. You look exhausted." I said as I started to control the cloud to head for our first stop.
"Where are we going first?" Zak asked me as I created a cloud blanket for him.
"Hawaii. Fire is associated with hot weather or lava which Hawaii has volcanoes and hot weather. Hopefully our first guy is here." I said as I sat back with him.
"Don't you have to control the cloud?" Zak asked as he looked at me.
"No. I set the directions so it will take us to Hawaii. Now yo should sleep. I can tell by your eyes that you are exhausted." I said as I put my cape and mask down beside me.
"Alright. Goodnight Valora." Zak said as he rolled over onto his side facing away from me.
"Night Zak." I said as I laid back with him to try and rest.
Zak
Val is really starting to be nicer to me now. I fell asleep quickly from the soft cloud and cloud blanket she had made for me. Next time I woke up I noticed we were on the ground. "Are we in Hawaii already?" I asked as I sat up.
"No but I stopped to get us something to eat and drink." Val said as she handed me a soda.
"Where did you get the money for this?" I asked as I opened up the soda.
"Just drink. It doesn't matter." Val said as I threw the blanket off of me.
"You stole it didn't you?" I asked as I put the soda down.
"Maybe." Val said with an evil smirk on her face. I sighed and took another sip from the soda.
"You know its illegal to steal right." I said as the cloud started to rise up off of the ground.
"Do you want to eat and drink real food or my vegan version of food?" Val questioned me. I looked away from her. "I thought so." Val said as she handed me something to eat.
"Where are we anyways?" I asked as I looked out over the sides of the cloud walls she made so we couldn't fall out.
"Halfway to Hawaii. I stopped us off to get something for us to eat though since we aren't going to be able to land until we're at Hawaii. Actually we could land on the ocean water but that wouldn't be a smart idea." Val said as I finished up the soda she had given me.
"How long until we get there?" I asked as Val moved to the other side of the cloud.
"About an hour or two. It will probably take a while to find our fire guy though." Val said as she leaned over the side of the cloud. I moved over and grabbed her to keep her from falling.
"Be careful or you're going to fall out." I said as I let go of her.
"You forget I can morph into any animal so I could fly right back in." Val said as she morphed into a hawk. "See." Val said before she changed back.
"Why were you leaning out so far then?" I asked as I moved back to my spot.
"I was checking something. I'm going to have to make the cloud bigger when we find the other four." Val said as we locked eyes. "You can go back to sleep for a little bit if you want. I'll wake you when we get to Hawaii." Val said as she looked away from me.
"I'd rather just stay awake." I said as I noticed that we were over the ocean now. "Can anyone see us up here?" I asked as I rested my head on the side of the cloud.
"They'll just think its a normal cloud. We're fine up here." Val said as I let my arms hang over the side of the cloud. "Your still upset about leaving your parents aren't you?" Val questioned me as I turned back to her.
"What do you think." I replied as I leaned against the back of the cloud.
"You should be glad to have a caring family. I never had a real family. All I had was myself and the animals I met with when I was traveling." Val said as she looked me in the eyes. I noticed her eyes were deep blue now.
"That's like a family. The wolves treat you like their own." I said as Val moved beside me.
"Tama and Shima are the ones who cared for me when I left the orphanage. Its not like I was ever going to get adopted anyways so I just left." Val said as she looked straight ahead. "Be glad your parents didn't abandon you because of your powers Zak. They are still there for you." Val said as I kept my eyes on her.
"Val I'm sorry that your parents abandoned you." I said quietly as I looked down at her hand which was balled into a fist.
"Don't be. It made me stronger. I don't have a family tying me down." Val said as she moved away from me. We stayed silent the rest of the way to Hawaii. "We're here now lets get looking." Val said as she jumped out of the cloud. We had stopped a ways from the city so that no one would see us.
"Alright now what are we going to do about our stuff?" I questioned as I jumped out with her.
"Bring it. We'll stay at a hotel." Val said as she flashed me a large wad of cash.
"Val where did you get that?" I questioned though I knew the answer.
Val flashed me a grin. "Do I have to answer that or do you know already?" Val asked with chuckle. I groaned as I grabbed my stuff from the cloud and right after everything was out of it the cloud vanished.
"Alright lets go." I said as I started walking.
"Alright but we're not going to be able to get a hotel if we're fifteen. Here." Val said as she started to change until she was a tall, blonde, blue eyed women. I gawked at her now gorgeous figure. "Stop staring ya perv." Val said as she started to walk ahead. I couldn't help myself but watch her ass sway as she walked. I quickly shook it and followed after her.
"Alright what hotel are we staying at then?" I asked once we got into town.
"A five star hotel called the Four seasons." Val said as she lead me towards a really fancy looking hotel right on the edge of the ocean.
"Damn! You have good taste in hotels." I said as we walked up to the door. We walked in and Val got us a room.
"Come on." Val said as she flashed the key card in front of me and started to walk for the elevator. I followed quickly.
"Val do you even have enough money for this?" I questioned once the door closed. She quickly changed back to her normal form.
"Yeah. That wad of cash wasn't all I had. I saved up a lot of money that I took when Delano wasn't looking back in the circus. What else I had I stole." Val said as the elevator door opened and we walked out. We found our room quickly and it was a huge deluxe suite.
"Damn you show off!" I stated still gawking at the amazing hotel.
"Naw I'm no show off. I just figured I'd treat you to a little luxury. Help you feel better." Val said as she walked over to the balcony. I noticed we had an amazing ocean view as well.
"You are still a show off." I said as I put my stuff down on one of the beds.
"Not a show off. Tomorrow we go to Mt. Kilauea. I have a strong feeling that our guy is there." Val said as she opened the balcony door. A cool ocean breeze came in and it felt amazing.
"We're staying here for a while though. This place is too amazing to only stay at for once day or two." I said as I continued to explore the amazing suite.
"I had the same feeling. I'm not wasting thousands of dollars on a hotel suite to only use it for a few days." Val said before she walked out onto the balcony. "Zak come here." Val said which I then went to see what was up. The view that we had outside was amazing. The whole place was amazing!
"You are so a show off." I said with a smirk at Val as she went back inside. I heard her pick up the phone and went back in to see what she was doing.
"Yeah just charge it to the card please. Thanks." Val said before she hung up.
"What card?" I questioned which she replied by flashing a credit card in front of me. "What did you get?" I asked now curious as she laid down on the huge bed.
"We are gonna need some new clothes so we can blend in here." Val said as I heard a knock at the door. I quickly answered it and a hotel worker came in with a rack of clothes. He handed Val a bill list now that she was in her other morph and she signed it.
"Thank you very much." Val said to him before he left. She then morphed back. "Take your pick." Val said indicating the rack of clothes.
"Val did you rob a bank on the way here?" I questioned with a chuckle as I looked through the clothes.
"Ha ha very funny. Delano was richer than you think Zak. I know most circus workers don't make much money but he did. I always stole at least half of his earning though. If not more though." Val said with a chuckle as she pulled something out of the clothes.
"I'm not a suit wearer." I said as Val handed me the black tux.
"This isn't for going around the island. Its for the restaurant downstairs. Its a really fancy restaurant." Val said as she pulled out a purple dress.
"Its only noon Val." I said as she held the dress to herself.
"I know I'm talking about tonight when we go have dinner." Val said as she tossed the dress on the bed. She then went back to looking for something casual to wear while I did too.
"Here is something that should blend with the Hawaiian's." I said as I pulled out white shorts and a red shirt with flowers.
"Are you really trying to prove that you are a tourist?" Val asked with a smirk at me.
"Well I technically am a tourist." I said as Val took something and went into the bathroom with it.
Val
I found something that looked good and went into the bathroom to try it on. I started off with putting a red hibiscus flower clip in my hair and then a ladies purple aloha shirt. It fit perfectly fortunately. Then I put on a pair of ladies navy blue Hawaiian print boarder shorts. I walked out and saw Zak had found something finally. "Wow it took you long enough to find something." I said as I sat down on the bed.
"Hey I'm not from Hawaii. I don't know how to blend in with the Hawaiian's." Zak said which got a chuckle out of me.
"Neither am I but look at me. I'm perfect in this." I said as I indicated my clothes. "Let me see what you have." I said as I stood up and walked over to him. He had a red tropical aloha shirt, and sage colored cargo walking shorts. "Not bad for your first time in Hawaii." I said as I indicated the bathroom so he could go put them on.
"How many times have you been to Hawaii?" Zak asked me as he went into the bathroom and closed the door.
"Twice before this but I'm usually in Honolulu not here on the big island." I said as I grabbed two blue lie's off of the rack. I put one on and the second Zak came out of the bathroom, I tossed the other onto his neck. "Now you look the part." I said as I sat down on the edge of the bed again.
"Alright then lets go. I want to go do something fun." Zak said as he pushed the rack of clothes away from the door. He left quickly and I followed after him.
I grabbed him by the back of his shirt. "Dude meet back here at dinner alright. I'm going down to the spa for a little while." I said as I let go of Zak.
"Wow that is a waste of the day. I'm going for a swim in the ocean." Zak said as we walked into the elevator.
"You need swim trunks dumb ass." I pointed out.
"I have shorts on." Zak said pointing to his shorts. I pulled out a hundred and gave it to him.
"Go get trunks." I said as the elevator door opened.
"Whatever." Zak said as he stuffed the hundred in his pocket and walked out. I groaned as the door closed again and took me to the spa floor.
Zak
Like I'm really going to use a hundred to go buy swim trunks. I can swim in my shorts of if I don't want to I can swim in my boxers. I walked out of the hotel and down to the beach. The water looks perfect today. I walked down and into the water and it felt perfect as well. I was about to pull my shirt off when someone grabbed me from behind. "Didn't I tell you to go get trunks?" Val questioned as she turned me around.
"What are you? My mom?" I questioned as I pulled out of her grip. "I thought you were going to the spa." I said as I moved away from her.
"I was going to but I had a feeling that you weren't going to listen to me." Val said as she handed me a pair of black and blue swim trunks.
"You don't even know my size so why did you buy these?" I asked as I looked them over.
"Actually I do since I helped you figure out that outfit remember." Val said as she started to walk back up the beach. "Remember to meet back at the room before dinner." Val said before she was out of earshot. I walked up to the changing room and tried the trunks on.
"Huh. I thought they weren't going to fit." I said surprised that they actually did fit on me. I walked back out and went swimming for the rest of the time until it was time to head back into the hotel. I went up to the room and Val left the door stopper in the door for me. "Val?" I called as I opened the door.
"I'm getting dressed." Val said from the bathroom as I closed the door.
"Alright then I'm going to get dressed out here so don't come out." I said as I grabbed the clothes she had put out for me.
"Don't have to worry about that." Val said through the door. I changed quickly and then Val came out in a purple Hawaiian print Sarong dress.
"Alright then lets go." I said as I walked for the door.
"I bet you are glad I didn't make you wear that tux now aren't you." Val said as she followed me out.
"Yes I am. This is much more comfortable." I said as we walked into the elevator.
"Did you wear the trunks I bought you after I left?" Val asked me as I leaned against the back of the elevator.
"Yes now quit acting like you are my mom." I said as I put my hands in my pocket. Val responded with a swift smack upside my head.
"You deserved that." Val said as the elevator door opened and she walked out. I walked out and followed her. We walked into a very fancy restaurant and the workers gave us a seat outside.
"Wow is there anything about this place that isn't fancy?" I questioned as I looked around the area.
"Nope. Its all fancy since its a five star hotel." Val said as she looked at her menu. I looked at mine and quickly decided what I wanted. We ordered and off course Ms. Vegan got a salad.
"You should at least try eating something like hamburgers or something." I stated as she looked out towards the ocean.
"I wont eat meat. It would be like cannibalism since I can morph into those animals." Val explained as I took a bite from my steak. She needs to loosen up a little.
"Val its not cannibalism because you aren't really those animals." I explained as she started eating her salad.
"I know how they feel though. They don't want to be eaten. I'm not going to eat meat or animal products." Val argued as I rolled my eyes at her. I went back to easting my steak. We ate in silence until we were both done.
"So when are we leaving for Mt. Kilauea?" I asked as Val paid our bill.
"Early morning to avoid the tourist traffic." Val said as we stood up and began to leave for our room.
Val
Zak and I headed back upstairs to our suite and Zak took a shower while I just laid in my bed playing with a cold flame in my hand. I tossed the flame from hand to hand for a while before I got bored and picked up the remote to the TV. I turned it on and flipped through the movies they had to pick from. "Showers free now." Zak said as he came out only in his pajama pants. He had a towel around his neck though.
"I'm good. I went to the spa earlier remember." I pointed out as I continued to flip through the movies they had.
"Anything good?" Zak asked as he sat down on his bed.
"You pick." I said as I tossed the remote to him. He started flipping through the movies and quickly found something.
"There now we have something to watch." Zak said as I walked over to the balcony door and opened it for the ocean breeze to come in. I laid back down in my bed and noticed Zak seemed to be drifting off already.
"You are tired already?" I questioned as I leaned against my headboard.
"Yeah swimming can take a lot out of you sometimes." Zak said with a yawn. "Especially if you've been swimming all day." Zak said as he pulled back the covers of his bed.
"Go to sleep then. We're going to be getting up early tomorrow to go to Mt. Kilauea." I said as I laid back down and pulled back my covers as well.
"When are we going to train?" Zak asked me through another yawn.
"Tomorrow some time. Most likely up on the volcano since it should help boost your powers more." I said as I turned off the lights.
"Alright. Night Val." Zak said before he turned over onto his side facing away from me.
"Night." I said as I turned the movie off and laid down to try and sleep. I felt a cool ocean breeze come in and faced towards the balcony to get the breeze more.
Zak
Dream
I began dreaming that I was out on the beach in the middle of the night. The moon was full and millions of stars filled the night sky with it. I turned around to see rose petals leading a path from up the beach and a second later candles ignited in flame on each side of the petal path. "Wow." Is all that came from my mouth. A second later I saw a slim figure coming down the path and my heart started beating hard against my chest. Smooth music began playing out of nowhere as well.
"Zak." A sweet voice said which just melted my heart. The person got closer and the closer she got the harder my heart pounded against my chest. "Zak." She said sweetly again which made my heart skip a beat. She finally got close to me but I couldn't tell who it was because she was shrouded in darkness and her hair was over her eyes. I rose my hand up and pushed her hair out of her eyes and then noticed it was Valora.
"Val." I said sort of confused with this dream now. My heart was pounding harder now as she leaned in and kissed me gently on the lips. My whole body felt on fire as we kissed gently for a minute or two. She wrapped her arms around my neck while I wrapped my own arms around her waist.
"Zak I've wanted to be with you for so long." Val said sweetly as we parted from our kiss. We kissed again and this time we fell back in the sand and Val was on top of me while we kissed.
"I've wanted to be with you for a long time too Val." I said sweetly as I pressed my forehead to hers. We kissed again and I felt Val's arms moving away from my neck and down my body instead.
Zak
I woke with a sudden jolt and ended up falling off my bed making a loud bang in the process Val looked down at me from her bed. "Klutz." Val said as she got out of her bed and helped me up.
"I woke up with a jolt. I didn't mean to do that." I said through a yawn. I then started thinking about the dream again and looked away from her.
"Well it was perfect timing I guess. I was going to wake you up soon anyways." Val said as she grabbed her Hawaiian clothes and headed for the bathroom. I found that I had actually watched her walk the whole way and buried my face in my pillow. "Don't go back to sleep." Val said as she came back out a few minutes later.
"I wasn't trying to." I said as I grabbed my Hawaiian clothes and headed to the bathroom to change into them. I came back out and we started to leave. "Are we traveling by cloud or tour bus?" I asked as we got into the elevator.
"Cloud. The tour buses aren't out yet and that would make things harder." Val said as I found myself lowering my eyes towards her butt. I stopped myself and looked away from her. "What's up with you today?" Val asked as the elevator door opened and we walked out.
"Nothing. I just had a bad dream last night that I'm still thinking about is all." I said as we walked through the lobby and out of the hotel.
"Hmm. Well come on we have to walk a ways before I can make a cloud for us." Val said as she started walking. I followed close behind and after a little bit she made a cloud. We took the cloud all the way to Mt. Kilauea.
"Alright are we going to have to hike the rest of the way up then?" I asked as I noticed we were only halfway up.
"Yep." Val said as she started walking. We stayed silent most of the way up the volcano.
"Why couldn't we have just flown?" I asked as we continued to walk.
"Because the heat of the volcano would make it harder for me to control the cloud." Val explained as I noticed we were almost at the top now.
"Well at least we're almost there." I said as I looked away from Val to prevent myself from letting my eyes wander to her ass again.
"Hurry up will you. Your being really slow today." Val said as I noticed I had fallen behind. I quickly caught up to her.
"Finally we're here." I said as we reached the summit.
"Be careful not to fall in. I haven't taught you how to survive in the element yet." Val said as the magma far below us bubbled.
"Well teach it to me soon then." I said as I heard someone coming up behind us.
Val
I sensed someone coming up behind Zak and I and spun around. "Who are you and why are you up here at my volcano?" A boy who looked to be only fifteen questioned us. He had fire red hair and had a somewhat good muscular structure. I'm guessing this is our guy.
"Your volcano? I think it would be mine since I can control the magma that flows inside it." I said hoping for a reaction which I got one instantly.
"You can not control the magma." The boy said in disbelief.
"Okay I'll prove it." I said as I pulled a glob of magma from the volcano and let it rest on my hand. Its a good thing I can control Magma. I never really practice this one.
"You can control fire too?" He questioned me.
"Yes I can control fire, water, earth, and air." I said as I tossed the Magma back. "But the question here is, can you and what is your name." I said as I locked eyes with him. His eyes were amber.
"I thought I was the only one who was able to control fire. My name is Ryker." He said as he ignited his hand in flame. I ignited my own in a blue flame and we shook hands.
"Well Ryker, its good to meet you finally." I said with a smile at him.
Zak seems to be developing feelings for Val now a little bit! They found the one of the legendary five who controls fire as well! More chapters coming as soon as possible. Thanks for reading and please remember to review for me.
