"That sounds like fun!" Will said enthusiastically.
"Yes it does. Now lets get packed."I went around the room, picking up my possessions and storing them in my requip armory.
"Whenever you're done, we can hit the road." I proceeded to do just that, launching myself through the narrow gap of the open window, doing a few flips for effect, then landing in a kneeling position, striking the concrete with tremendous force. Will just rolled his eyes, opting to take the stairs. Aurum had already followed me through the window, while Argent flew behind Will. "Oi! Will! You forgot to close the window!" I snapped my fingers and a golden flame bloomed around my fist. I then flicked my wrist and the flame curled away, floating over to the still-open window. With a downward twist, I shut the window with the stream of golden fire. Once again, Will just rolled his eyes.
-A Few Hours Later-
"Alright, time for lunch." I said, stopping the march. Aurum and Argent immediately fell to the ground, groaning from hunger.
"We want fish!" They whined in unison.
"OK, OK. I'll get us some fish." I said soothingly.
"Yay!" The cats shouted together. Will dragged a few logs over to the camp spot. He then built a neat little fire, but neglected to light it. Meanwhile, I was catching fish from the nearby stream with my bare hands. When I came back with a load of fish, Will and the cats were lounging on the logs.
"Well? You gonna light that fire? Or are you gonna make me do it?" I stated, dropping the fish on a silver platter that I assumed Will had made earlier.
"Well, you are the best at it." Will said, grinning up at me.
"Oh shut up. Whatever. Fine. I'll do it." I snapped my fingers and pointed at the pile of twigs. A pencil-thin jet of golden fire shot from my finger, igniting the damp wood. "There. That better?"
"Much." Will lifted the platter into the air. I snapped my fingers and a pair of huge golden great swords appeared in my hands.
"Pull." Will launched the fish high into the sky. My swords flashed and glittered in the firelight as I swung them with blurring speed. The fish fell back onto the platter, de-scaled, deboned, gutted, and decapitated.
"You didn't get the the tails." Will pointed out.
"Yes I did, didn't I?" One of my swords melted into a short sword, which flicked and flickered around the fish, removing the tails. Will snapped his fingers and four silver spikes formed in front of us. Each one of us grabbed one and speared a fish on them. We roasted them over the fire, occasionally commenting on how good they are. All of a sudden, Will's head snapped up and he raised his hand, halting all movement and conversation.
"What is it?" I hissed under my breath.
"Someone is approaching from my six." I raised my head and sniffed the air. "Human. Female. Scared. Wait no, less than that. Closer to cautious than anything."
"Also hungry."
"Good one. I didn't catch that." I stood and gestured towards the fire. Will snapped his fingers and flames froze into a solid chunk of silver ice with a golden core. I gestured again and a suit of golden plate mail grew around me, along with another pair of swords. These were different from the earlier great swords. These were hook-swords.
"Good call." Will also gestured towards himself, but the armor that appeared was silver scale-mail, but fused to his flesh. A katana grew in his right hand, the shorter wakizashi in his left. In my enhanced vision, a face appeared out of the gloom.
"Target approaching from the southeast. Approximate age: 17-18. Appears non-hostile. Treat with caution nevertheless. Assume stealth formation Alpha Zeta. " I rattled out, military instincts kicking in. The two of us were briefly wrapped in gold and silver flames, then we both vanished from sight. The two cats flew quickly into the trees to hide. As the girl moved into the clearing, the dim glow of the frozen fire illuminated her figure. She was just a bit shorter then me, she had brown eyes and black hair with red streaks.
She stepped further into the light and illuminated her clothes. She was wearing a black dress with a red waistband and over that a black spiked leather jacket. I gasped in shock. This was one of the women I had seen in my dream/nightmare/vision. Quickly, I clapped my hand over my mouth, as the woman had heard my gasp and had looked up.
"Proceed with surprise attack plan Beta Gamma." I whispered neutrally, to conceal my earlier shock. Will moved in front of the woman as she bent down to grab a speared fish. I crept up behind her and waited for Will's move. This came when he revealed himself, standing a few feet in front of the mysterious woman. As she straightened up, she saw him and had to stifle a scream of fear. She quickly unsheathed the silver spear and held it up to defend herself. As she swung it back to strike him, I stepped forward and grabbed it.
