Flarena, Blaze, and Carrol were running around in the backyard, hitting a ball between them, just having fun. When the ball went into the bushes, Flarena went to move, but winced when she felt pressure on her tail. Flarena looked at her tail, to see a tree root over it. When did that happen? Flarena tugged on her tail as Carrol ran to get the ball, but Blaze ran toward Flarena.
"Flarena, you okay?" he asked.
"My tail is stuck apparently." Flarena said tugging more, but made an ouch sound as she pulled too rough.
Blaze looked at her tail, and was dumbfounded. When did a root grow there, and be over her tail? Blaze tugged at the root, and broke it off, setting her free.
"There, that should do it." Blaze said as Flarena looked at her tail, only to see a scrap mark, and smiled.
It didn't have splinter's, and neither did it have a scar. Flarena smiled at Blaze as Blaze blushed and smiled back.
"Hey guys, I got the ball." Carrol said coming back with the ball and running toward them.
"Here it is." he said dropping it.
"Great." Flarena said and was about to bounce it, but something wrapped around her leg.
"What? Again?" Flarena said, ready to blow fire.
"AH!" Carrol and Blaze said as they were lifted into the air, and Flarena saw tree branches wrapped around Blazes' and Carrols' waist.
"Carrol, Blaze!" Flarena called out, and she was lifted into the air.
"Oh no you don't. GRAH!" Flarena said cutting the branch from her tail with the blade on her tail, and landed.
'Think Flarena, think! Don't be hasty. Take what you've been taught, and use it in real life situations.' Flarena thought to herself as she looked at her surrounding's.
Okay, Blaze and Carrol are tied up by tree branches, in which the tree's have been turned into demon's. There are three tree's behind her, which aren't demons, and two on both sides of the rectangular backyard that might be demons. Flarena kicked the two side tree's, which had no reaction. Okay, so those aren't demon's. Flarena ran at Blaze and Carrol, and cut the branches off of them, and landed in front of them as the 3 of them backed up. Flarena and Blaze ran at the left on, and created eight scratches on it's face, and trunk. Carrol ran at the right one, and created four scratches on the face and trunk. The three landed side by side, but noticed they weren't out of trouble yet as vines sped toward them.
Flarena, and Blaze burned the vines as Carrol froze them, and broke them with his tail. Suddenly the branches came back and wrapped around them all. Flarena, Blaze and Carrol fell to the ground, but Flarena gathered as much Fire and Fear as she could, shot them out together creating a screeching noise, and a sound like a bomb.
Inside temple: Terrador, Volteer, and Cyril awake to the sound of screeching and a sound like a bomb. They quickly ran outside only to see Flarena collapse, and Carrol with Blaze trying to get the branches off them, and remove the vines from their muzzles. With their front and back paws to your sides, and wings unable to move that was near impossible. Suddenly vines wrapped around Flarenas' muzzle, to prevent her from doing anything else. Terrador growled at the scene before him, and turned to Cyril and Volteer.
"Get the kids." He said before heading out, and going for the tree's.
Volteer got Blaze and Flarena and Cyril got Carrol. They ran back inside as Terrador destroyed the two demon tree's and headed inside. Terrador toke Flarena away from Volteer and laid her in her room, and nudged her a bit. As he looked over her, she became more of a daughter to him than just someone Ignitus asked him to look over. Suddenly Flarena stirred as he nudged her again. Suddenly Carrol came into the room, and looked at Terrador.
"Is she alright?" Carrol asked coming in.
"Yeah, she just woke up." Terrador said as Flarena stood up on wobbly legs.
"Lay back down. You need your strength." Terrador said as Flarena nodded.
"Hey Terrador...can I talk to her alone?" Carrol asked.
Terrador gave him a hard look, and then sighed.
"Fine, but stay in here. Understand?" Terrador said as they both nodded and he left.
"Hey Flarena, are you okay?" Carrol asked her.
"Just a bit weak from earlier, but other than that I'm fine." she said smiling at him with a blush.
Ever since she meet Carrol, which was about 3 to 4 years ago, she's been in love with him, so being in a room with him alone would keep her blushing the rest of the day.
"I'm glad your alright. Also, this is gonna sound random but...back there in the backyard, I was really worried. Worried you might end up dying, and I couldn't stand that." Carrol said as Flarena looked at him with wide eyes.
If this was going the way she thought it was, then he...
"I've also realized that...well...I've realized this for awhile, but ever since this whole ordeal with Malefor happened, I knew I wanted to stay by your side. I didn't know how to say it though, but Flarena...I don't ever want to leave your side." Carrol said getting really close to her, both of their faces red.
"Carrol..." Flarena said as suddenly they kissed.
Next week: Flarena and Carrol were walking through the meadow, as Terrador had allowed it. Carrol and Flarena had started to date since they confessed about a week ago. Blaze seemed to of had some jealousy, but he ignored his feelings for Flarenas' own good. Carrol and Flarena were happy together, so Blaze sighed when he found out the two liked each other.
Blaze sighed as he decided to go to the meadow to clear his mind. When he got there, he froze. He saw Carrol and Flarena kiss right before him, Blaze was heartbroken. Blaze shook his head, and left unknown the two were calling for him.
"I wonder why he suddenly left like that?" Flarena said worried.
"Maybe, he saw something?" Carrol asked as they were both confused.
Suddenly strong wing beats were heard, and they saw Terrador coming toward them.
"Flarena, you might want to see this." Terrador said as him, Flarena, and Carrol left for the temple.
