Justice woke up, feeling bouncier than ever. Maybe it was the waning rays of the moon, or the hilarious conversation that was shared during dinner, either way she felt the happiest she had ever been in a long time.
Today's gonna be a great day!
She crept outside the dormitory, careful not to wake anyone, and began to train in the hall. She started on the Adversary, swatting it with a barrage of roundhouse kicks and open-palm punches. After her quick round with the inflatable dummy, she tested her reflexes on the fire pit. After nearly getting her tail singed, Justice decided that she had trained enough for one day. She crept quietly towards the bathhouse.
But before she got to the door, she was greeted by a hungry, muddy, sleep-deprived little brother.
"Salutations, sister," said Esau with a smile.
"Esau," Justice shockingly whispered. "What are you doing out here?"
"I was outside last night and you locked me out, in the rain, alone. I have to admit, I was mad, but I took that opportunity to meditate under Oogway's Peach Tree."
He took a breath before continuing, still smiling like a kid in a candy store.
"After sitting under there for a few minutes, I edged off my anger and decided to pick some flowers for you, to show there were no hard feelings. But I only have one to give you; I dropped the others on the way back."
He withdrew a lilac from behind his back and gave it to her.
Justice was shocked. "Look, I'm really, really, really sorry I left you out here. I will make it up to you I promise. But first, can I, you know, freshen up?"
"Sure go ahead," said Esau as he moved out of her way. "I'll see you at the mountain path."
Justice watched as her brother left. She felt guilty, but that feeling only lasted for a moment. She shrugged it off as she made her way to the bathhouse. Justice drew her bath and began to soak in it. She felt relaxed and hung her arms over the sides of the basin. She was anxious to use the new jasmine oil she bought yesterday. She took a sniff of it after she managed to take the top off.
Ahhh … the relaxing scents of jasmine, waterlilies, and rose petals with just a hint of …. Peach? She sniffed again just to make sure.
'Oh, well,' she thought as she dumped it all into the water.
So, where's the revenge? You'll see next chapter. Sorry it's so short, but I'm running out of battery power. Please R&R and no flames.:-K
