Stella was in her room, getting ready. She was just barely putting on her dress when Kimiko pulled the curtain open.
"Aughh! Kimiko!" She pulled the skirt of her dress down fast. "At least announce you're coming in! I thought you were Raimundo!"
"Sorry. I just wanted to know if there was anything you needed for your night out. I got plenty of accessories and stuff." She eyes her outfit and smiled. " I have the perfect hair clip for you!"
Before Stella could say anything, Kimiko ran out to her room. Stella shrugged and went to brushing her hair. Kimiko came back and showed her the clip. Stella's jaw dropped.
It was a golden dragon clip, with emerald eyes and shiny yellow scales. The details were amazing!
Stella grabbed it gingerly and stood there, admiring the clip.
"This is perfect, Kimiko! Thank you !" She used to her magic to make her bangs longer and pinned them back. She turned to Kimiko and asked for her opinion.
"You look great, Stella!"
"Thanks Kimiko. " she stood up and walked out to the temple gates, where Master Fung and the other monks were waiting.
"Curfew is 11 tonight. Do not be late. " Master Fung said.
"Yes, Master Fung."
"Why does she get to go out and have fun and i can't ?" Said Raimundo.
"When you're over 16, you can have these privilegees. " Master Fung said calmly. He looked back over to Stella.
"Be careful tonight. And have fun. " the old man smiled at her. She returned the smile.
"Thank you, Master Fung." She bowed slightly and walked out the temple grounds, heading to town. When she was out of site, she transformed into her fairy form and flew to the nearest city as fast as she could. It took over an hour but she wasn't tired from the flying, thanks to the late night exercises with Chase.
Chase
Stella paused to think about him. She knows he's evil, she should know he would say the things he told her the night before. It shouldn't bother her. But yet, it does. She's always excited for the day to be over and the night beginning. She always thought of their sparring matches together, and the small conversations between them. It was something to look forward to.
"Maybe I shouldn't be reading into it that much. " she muttered, as she walked into the city limits.
Meanwhile
Chase was fixing his collar. It had been awhile since he put on any normal clothes, and he had to be sure he looked right. Without his metal armor, he felt naked almost. He looked up and down in the mirror. He wore a black dress shirt, unbuttoned slightly, revealing some of his pectoral muscles, dark green pants, and black dress shoes. Simple, but he pulled it off nicely. He was putting on a gold watch, when Wuya came in.
"Where are you going !?"
"Out."
"You never go out."
Chase walked past her. "Never have a reason to." He walked into his bathroom to get his cologne, and sprayed it on. A smell of mahogany and rum, with a hint of citrus, filled the room.
"Well what's the reason ? "
"None of your business!" He snapped and walked out of his room. Wuya flew to his face to stop him.
"You're going on a date with the fairy, aren't you!?"
"Don't be ridiculous. It's not even a date."
"Oh yeah whatever you say." Wuya muttered.
"Keep it to yourself. Especially if you want help reverting back to flesh." He snarled. Wuya rolled her eyes as she watch him leave the lair.
