Chapter 59: Welcome Home, Elinor.
Raimundo's P.O.V.
"Ugh!" Kimiko lifted a diaper in the air and put it in the trash can, which happened to be near our bed. "It can be THAT bad." I said. "Oh? So you want to try? Here!" She shoved the diaper pouch into my hands. "I'm going to go take a shower! NOW I SMELL LIKE... FILTH!" Kimiko spat and marched into the bathroom. "You sure know how to drive people crazy Elinor." I muttered over to her. Her tiny hands were playing with her pillow. "Blah." Elinor stated. "What!" This time I lifted her up and studied her face. "Kim! She said her first word! You gotta come see this! It's so..." Kimiko was behind me, and looking over that the baby. "Cute? Don't hold her like that!" She snatched my daughter away and burped her. "You see? Now what did she say? Was it Kimiko? Perhaps... Raimundo?" Kim asked. "She said blah." I replied. Her grin turned into a slight frown. "She got that from you person!"
"Now where will she sit?" Kimiko asked everyone at the breakfast table. Elinor pointed to the seat next to Omi and I. "You sure?" Omi shook his head quickly and pointed over to the spot where Kimiko and I were sitting together. "Fine, but she might get mad!" I taunted over to him. "No need to worry my friend! No little baby can hurt me!" Elinor snorted this time, then extended her hand... Wind came out of it. "Oh my GOD!" Clay ducked under the table, and the Wind caused everything on the table to crash to the ground. "Raimundo! Control her!" Jill cried and tumbled backwards. I picked her up simply and set her down next to Omi. "Told you so... Big head!" Omi scowled and began picking up the food. He bent over and said "This girl will prove to be most wondrous..."
Kimiko's P.O.V.
I walked into the kitchen, and found that the floor was a mess. "Okay Raimundo! This mess has your name written all over it!" I screamed through the corridors. "It wasn't me." He objected, Xian and Jill nodded also. "Then who was it? I sensed the Wind element present in that room! The only person that could have did it would be YOU!" Raimundo still looked offended. "Elinor did it." he stammered. "How? She is a little girl, and her Wind magic can't be that good! Or else... Does that mean... FIRE POWER TOO?" I asked, shocked. "I am afraid so Kimiko." Fung stepped out from the kitchen and nodded over to us. "She has absorbed both of your powers, and it will make her very powerful." I groaned and glanced outside, Elinor was standing near a tree, and her hand was on fire.
"Elinor! I know you can hear me!" She smirked again and sucked her thumb. "You are going to stay in this crib until you control your powers!" Elinor's finger tips caught on fire, and she touched me. But there was no affect, and she laughed. "Think that is funny?" My fire was bursting from my hands, and it was far stronger than her flame. She clapped her hands then extended her hand. "No! Don't do that!" I picked her up and burped her again. "Weird child... With all these magical powers... WHY?" Raimundo came through the door and I felt the wind change again. "Stop changing the temperature!" I shouted. "I am not doing it! She is!" He exclaimed and fell onto the bed. "Stop it!" This time the room was getting warmer. "That is so it!" Raimundo said and levitated her over to the crib with his wind magic.
My baby was exploring the Temple, and I had to follow her. You never know when she could cause mischief, like setting the Temple on fire, or placing food on the floor. "Time to go sweetie, it's almost lunch. Do you know where the kitchen is?" I asked her. "Blah." She responded. "Okay?" I picked her up and then brushed her black hair from her eyes, the brilliant green. "So pretty..." Elinor giggled again and pulled my hair. "Watch it!" I said and slid a strand of hair from her grasp. She spat on the floor and I began to walk over to the kitchen.
Raimundo's P.O.V.
"No!" Omi whined. "She HAS to sit here or you'll get some floor food!" Kim put Elinor down on the chair and sighed. "Kim. I think you should train that wild girl." I noted. "What? How? When? You can't train her when she's going to the bathroom, and setting this on fire! I don't know how! She doesn't understand a word I say!" she yelled. "Calm down! The Old Master of the Temple trained you when you were like... 15." "Great! Now I just have to wait 15 years! THAT MANY YEARS!" Kimiko slammed her head onto the table and let one sob come out of her mouth. "I'm a mother!" she wailed. "Not this again..." Xian said and covered her ears. I heard this before, and now I was going to hear it a fifth time. "WHY? Why do I have a kid? WHY!" Kimiko was losing it again.
"Want to go star gazing?" I asked Kim. "I have to watch Elinor, unlike some people!" Kimiko glared and I sat down on the bed. "You can't just stay cooped up here! We can take Elinor with us! I bed she likes stars!" I persuaded. "Fine. But if she needs to go take a bathroom break on me then I am going to KICK YOU ASS!" Kim straightened her blouse and walked over to the door. "Coming darling?" she asked. "Oh... Yeah." She could just erupt suddenly; and then act like everything was okay... "Look! It's so starry!" I turned the lenses on the telescope and listened to the random remarks from Kimiko. "Does Elinor like it?" I asked. "She's staring into the sky! Aw! She's smiling!" she squealed. "What is the deal with you?" "Nothing..." This time Kimiko leaned over and kissed me.
I broke away, slowly. "You haven't done that in a while." I whispered. "Because you weren't ready for it!" she shot back. "Let's go run." "Why?" Kimiko asked. "Because I said so!" I pulled her and she tripped on her feet. "My shoes!" "Who cares about your shoes?" I took off mine and ran through the grass, and under the dazzling stars. "Elinor! Come one!" Kimiko called. The baby that was laying on the ground perked up a little, she pushed off the ground, and then hovered. I gaped a little and then closed my mouth because Kimiko was smiling smugly over to me. "That's something new." I said. "She might be better than you one day!" she teased. "Shut up! I AM the Wind Dragon here, Fire Dragon!" I snapped. "Someone is jealous?" Kim eyed me and pulled the collar of my shirt. Her crystal blue eyes gazed back at me dreamily, this made me smirk. "Feisty are we?" "Yes." She kissed me again, meanwhile Elinor was watching with pure amusement.
