I do not own Storm Hawks! Also, the blinking goggles were pointed out by aerrowluver1127 and Minn-Maigi.
On with the story!
The Dark Ace blinked and tilted his head to the side. "Okay, that is creepy."
It was after practice, and to provide the light until they actually went to bed, the Storm Hawks had donned their light enhancing goggles. The girls were still upstairs, in the Ladies room. Just as Stork had predicted, it had been four hours, and they were still in there.
The reason for the goggles was because the above head lights would turn off for eight hours, then gradually lighten again. A near simulation of a full day. The lights had been dimming when Dark Ace called a halt to their practice and trooped up the stairs. The boys had showered, brushed their teeth, and fled back downstairs.
"What's creepy?" Aerrow asked, looking up from his tactics book. He was positive that in their third round, the Dark Ace had pulled a variation of a stunt that Piper had banned him from performing unless they were near an emergency hospital.
"Your goggles. They blink when you do."
"Oh, that's not creepy. It's a design flaw that I can't work out." Stork elaborated from where he was playing cards with Finn and Junko. "The refraction in the goggles blacks out when the eyes blink. It just does that."
The Dark Ace growled. "That doesn't stop it from being creepy."
He didn't see Finn nudge Junko, then Stork. Or signal Aerrow.
What the Dark Ace did notice was all the Storm Hawks looking at him and start blinking.
"AAAAAAGH!"
Upstairs, Master Cyclonis and Piper looked at each other. The bathroom had everything that a girl could need. There were six different smelling lotions to rub onto the skin after the bathing- Rose, Honeysuckle, Lavender, Violet, Ocean Breeze, and Pomegranate. Cyclonis and Piper had no idea what pomegranate was, but they agreed that the new scent would be the perfect prank on the boys. There were razors, lotion for the razors, oils, bath salts, candles, and a music station. There was even a towel warmer, slippers, lighted mirrors and dressers! The terry cloth robes were to die for, as well.
Good thing there were six of them.
"That sounded like the Dark Ace." Piper said, turning to Master Cyclonis.
"I know. It's when he doesn't sound angry that I get worried." Master Cyclonis then put her hand along Piper's head and pushed it forward again. "I'm only up to fifty-eight strokes. Hold still."
Piper sighed and acquiesced, loving the brush strokes through her hair.
A/N: This just hit me, so I thought "Why not?" …..I'm still working on that Oracle crystal.
