"This new Wu is called the aura of truth! Whoever uses it can make their opponents tell the truth to any question they ask!" It's a pretty serious Wu, so we'll have to be the first to get it!" Dojo Said, while flying them to yet another random jungle in China. He zig zagged through the trees, with some form of grace, then landed in a large clearing in the woods. He shrank down and went to perch on clays hat.
"So i can ask Raimundo if he's the one who broke my bottle of perfume?" Stella asked, glaring at the warrior of wind.
"I told you it wasn't me! Why would i be in your room?"
" Same reason you guys stormed Kimiko's room while back: to make me mad!"
"Pshh Whatever! I didn't do it."
Stella rolled her eyes and kept walking with them. She eyed the trees and when they were looking too high up for her to see from below, she transformed and went to fly ahead. She scanned through the trees, still finding nothing. This was starting to get boring! She went onto thinking of what training exercise chase would have her do tonight.
Chase.
Her heart started to flutter at the thought of his name. Ever since they kissed two weeks ago, they've been closer than ever. She couldn't believe she was secretly seeing this evil man, but she couldn't help herself.
She felt a huge impact in her face followed by pain. She had flown face first into a tree! She slid down and sat quietly, taking in the pain and embarrassment.
She heard laughter.
"Losing your nerve, young one? " said a familiar voice.
She slowly looked up, hoping it wasn't who she thought it was. Nope. It was chase. He saw the whole thing! Her face turned super red as she buried her face into the tree.
"No! This tree came out of nowhere."
She heard him walk towards her. She sensed him standing right behind her. Chase squatted down, grabbed her waist, and hoisted her up on her feet. She turned to face him, holding her forehead.
"Why are you here?" she groaned
"Same as you." He said, moving her hand away to kiss her forehead.
" What if the monks saw that?"
He smirked. "They'll have to deal with it." He cupped her face, leaned in, then jumped straight up onto the treetop above.
She looked up and saw him rummage around the leaves.
"Hey!" She Yelled before joining him. He had found the Wu!
"So you seduced me to avoid me finding it!?" She Yelled. Chase laughed.
"It was so easy too."
She pouted. Chase smirked and gave her a kiss.
"Sorry, Stella. I had to be sure to get this Wu. Even if it meant distracting you."
"Yeah yeah it's all part of your evil plan." She mocked. They both kept looking at each other when they heard the monks down below.
"Oh no! What are they gonna think if they saw me here not fighting you for the Wu!?" She whispered harshly. She looked back at Chase, who was giving her a smug look.
"What?" Next thing Stella knew, she was falling, chase looking farther away from her. She fell with a loud thud in front of the monks.
"Looks like your fairytale friend was too slow for this trinket!" Chase yelled.
"You jerk!" Stella said, getting up to fight him. She shot an orb at him but he already fled with the Wu. She growled then slowly turned to face the monks, who all wore disappointed looks.
"You lost the Wu to Chase! Now we can't ask the way of destroying evil!" Raimundo Yelled
"Hey you wanna go against the master of darkness and all things kung fu? Be my guest!" She snapped.
"You're a fairy of Light! Your power should be able to stop his and you're not taking advantage of it!" He yelled back, balling his fists.
"Whoa there, partner. We've all had our share of not getting the Wu. Don't be hard on her." Said Clay. He put his hand on the Brazilian boys shoulder. He smacked it off.
"NO! She's not even HUMAN. SHE should be more advanced than us and be able to stop chase young! "
Stella glared at him. "Just because I'm not human, doesn't mean I'm this powerful entity. There's training involved with fairies too."
"Well clearly they're not working for you." He huffed before heading to Dojo, who already grew large in size.
Stella sighed, trudging towards him. She was getting on, when Raimundo kicked her off.
"Nah uh. Use your "fairy powers " to get home. Go Dojo." He said.
"Rai, dont be such a jerk! We're suppose to be a team!" Kimiko Said.
"It's fine. I'll make my way back." Stella mumbled.
"This isn't fair, Raimundo! " omi protested.
"You heard her. She's alright with it. Go Dojo."
Dojo reluctantly did as he was told, taking off in super speed and swiftness, leaving Stella there to watch them go. As soon as they were out of sight, she punched the ground in anger, causing the whole Forrest to shake and crumble, light peaking out the cracks in the earth. She gasped at her sudden power. She's never done that before.
"Someone's angry." Mused Chase, who had witnessed the whole thing in the shadows.
"No thanks to you! What the hell was that!?" She Yelled
"To avoid our interactions from being revealed."
"There was still a better way to do it."
He raised an eyebrow. "How so?"
That stopped Stella from speaking. She refrained and looked down.
"I-I don't know."
She sensed chase circling around her, like he always does.
"Looks like they don't appreciate you."
"Yeah they do. They're just mad at the moment. I'm sure they're like this to each other when they don't get an important Wu. "
"Are you quite sure about that?" He gave her an evil smirk. She shuddered.
"Yes. I trust them."
"Oh really?" He looked at the purple and gold orb in his hands.
"We'll have to see then, shall we ?"
"You were right about everything else, but not them, chase." She said.
"Time will tell." He walked over to kiss her cheek. She pouted, but still blushed.
" See you tonight." With that, he disappeared out of sight.
Stella sighed as she started walking back to the temple.
