Kimiko had decided it was high time she put down her PDA, stop the rigorous training and chores and go and do something for herself. Her only idea had been a walk in the nearby forest, the only relatively enjoyable activity in a hundred mile radius.
The woods were so large she was sure there was no way she was going to run into anyone else. But lo and behold, walking into an open clearing, she was met with the familiar backside of the dragon of wind.
"Rai, what are you doing here?" She asked, trying not to sound so annoyed.
He turns around, looking rather surprised to see her as well. "I could ask the you same question."
"I'm just going for a walk."
He scoffs, running a hand through his hair. "I remember when I used to go for walks… oh, what a sad time…"
She raised an eyebrow at him. "Then how did you get here?"
"I flew."
Kimiko walks up to him, so at least she doesn't have to yell. "You flew?"
"Yea, how else does a wind god get around these days?"
"Really, a wind go—" Her words turn into a startled yelp as he lunges at her, plucking her off the ground bridal style. Before she can even protest, he takes off, flying through the underbrush of the trees and into open air at rocket speed.
She held her hands up to her face, just a little bit startled.
"Kimiko…" He whispers to her. "Just take a look…"
Reluctant at first, she lowers her clasped hands to look at the forest. She had been on planes and in high rise buildings, she rode Dojo almost every day, but this experience was completely different. From her view, she felt higher than the setting sun, looking down at the beauty of the valley with wide eyes…
After only a moment Raimundo just had to make a smart aleck comment. "Geez, Kimi, you have to lay off the doughnuts girl, you're getting heavy,"
She kissed him on the cheek. "Just take me home, wind god…"
