::Chapter 10::
Danger is an aphrodisiac. - Tobsha Learner
Scene change: Car
"Come on Dawn, this isn't so bad!"
Dawn growled threateningly at Pandora. "Easy for you to say!" Glaring with stronger ferocity, she continued. "You're not the one who got turned into a teenager here! Do you know what? What sucks the most about this whole frekkin ordeal?! I have to go through puberty all. Over. AGAIN!"
Laughing again, Pandora ruffled Dawn's again and sat back into the driver seat. Irritated at having her hair messed up, she fiddled around with her engagement ring Genesis got her once long ago as she seated herself into the passenger seat. Did she piss off some deity in her past life or something...?
"HEY!"
"Hmn?" Pandora poked her head through the window to see Mr. Redhead-and-proud march over and practically holding the car hostage. "Hello, dear Genesis. May we please pass now?"
"Absolutely NOT!"
"...And why's that?"
"Because," Genesis hissed out, "I've known you for decades now. I want. To know. Whats going on!"
Pandora turned back at Dawn who looked back. Pandora gestured to the newly-sixteen-mother. "I told you, you shouldn't have dyed your hair..."
Flashback:
"Screw this, I'm doing what I want!"
"Dawn! We don't have TIME!"
"No! I need to do this!"
"It's only THE SMALLEST PART OF YOUR HAIR! YOU DON'T NEED THIS!
"YES I DO! I LOOK TOO MUCH LIKE A KID! I LOOK LIKE EMBER!"
End Flashback
Dawn flicked her blond hair with recently dyed black low-lights. She gave a shrug before she answered. "I needed to dye my hair..."
"No. No you didn't."
Genesis impatient with waiting, erupted. "Both of you are NOT leaving me here."
"I shall be coming along as well." Cloud appeared behind Genesis. "I believe the kids got everything handled here."
"What about Skye?"
"Exactly."
Nobody knew how to exactly respond to that.
Genesis crossed his arms as he looked expectantly at the sisters, not budging an inch. Pandora gave up. "Fine. You guys can come."
Genesis grinned in triumph and opened the car as Cloud followed inside. Even from here, Dawn winced from the rowdy sounds coming from her beautiful home, which was surely demolished from the inside. She was starting to regret leaving the kids alone with SKYE.
Meanwhile: Inside House
"MWAHAHAHAHAHA~!
-Crash-
Skye madly ran around with stuff from the special refrigerator as the guys chased her down. Throwing another unknown item, it exploded into smoke and... something else that ultimately ruined the beautiful hallways. Cackling wildly, she zoomed away with more ammo to spare.
"AUNT SKYE, STOP RIGHT NOW!"
"NE-VERRR~!"
Scene change: Nature Realm
Stepping outside the car, with Dawn still sulking over her teenage age and not being able to drive, they took a few minutes to look around their surroundings. So very unlike Destiny Islands. The heavily wooded area was thick with vegetation and looked untouched by much human interference. Pandora walked ahead with Cloud as Genesis tried calming down an irritated Dawn. Not long after they started their trek into the forest, they soon encountered interference.
A human shaped blur shot out from above throwing projectiles at the group. Cloud blocked much of it with his sword. The rest just dodged the few in their general direction. Dawn grunted as her body still felt out-of-sorts thus making it difficult to move as fluidly as before. The figure remained within the shadows of the trees, only distinctly seeing his position. S/He threw precise aims to the head, chest and legs. They could tell s/he was very much inexperienced in battle, but those aims were sharp, and they constantly dodged. Dawn was starting to slow down as she has been inactive for a while. Add in that she doesn't have all her muscle memory, she is starting to struggle dodging which places them in a bad situation.
Genesis, with his worry for Dawn and his irritation at the whole ordeal, roared out "Damn it Klaud, I want this over and done with!"
"No!" she loudly protested. "We're not looking for a fight. Getting into one won't help us at all!"
"We're already in one!" he screamed furiously.
"You're not helping!" Cloud countered back.
"Stop this!"
At the commanding tone, the figure stopped his assault while another walked into the scene. It was a woman with long brown hair, stunning emerald eyes, and tanned skin wearing woodland battle gear. She brightened immediately seeing the group! "Klaud, Cloud, (LOL similar names~) and Genesis!" She beamed excitingly. Upon noticing the (supposed) teenager, she looked confused.
"Where's Dawn?" She looked speculatively at Dawn now. "And who is that?"
Cloud spoke up nervously. "Um,... she's... a friend."
"...You make friends with sixteen-year-olds?"
"...She's my friend."
"Uh-huh..." Doubting Cloud's word, she inquired further. "Are you cheating on Skye?"
"Wha-" slightly punching his arm she laughed hysterically.
"No, no I'm just messing with you." She wiped a tear from her eye. "Ah, I can recognize Dawn anywhere. I'm a little curious on how you look like you're a teen again."
Dawn sighed in relief. "Trust me, you don't want to know."
