"What did you think would happen when you and your little friend tried to catch me unawares?"
The fledgling giggled as her back hit the soft mattress, looking up into the bright blue eyes of her biggest brother, squirming when he poked at her sides.
"Have you anything to say for yourself?"
It had been a brilliant display, after showing her dearest friend what she had come up with in the garden the other day he had been all too willing to help her achieve her goal, and thus their actual planning had begun. It was the perfect day following the staging, and it was the same day that the Commander was supposed to welcome the newest classes too. It couldn't have been a better day to enact their brilliant plan, leaving the oldest angel completely soaked and them running as fast as they could from the area before he caught on, and catch on he had, and she had been quickly swooped up as she tried to run up the path to hide in her masters room.
He was dry by that time and tossed her giggling form over his shoulder as he calmly walked his way up the steps and into their home, down the hall to his own room.
"I wish we added the dye."
"I think it worked in your favor that you didn't get to that part."
He loomed over her and Akeela giggled up at him when he kissed the tip of her nose, little fingers curling into the front of the tunic he wore, laying over her to keep her from moving too much or managing to escape.
"It would have only made it worse for yourself."
"You don' scare me!"
"Just you wait little one."
