"I know. And it'll be hard on us, too. We've only known her for a few days, and already I feel like she's one of us."

"Yeah… even though she is the most energetic child I've ever known, I'll miss her."

Mike gave a half smile. "That's the truth. Shall we head back inside and see what the other two are up to?"

Tanrial nodded, “Yeah, I guess we should. They’ll be wondering what we’re talking about,”

"Yeah, I still have to talk to Bernon about this." Mike opened the door and walked back in.
Snatch had already gone back to drawing and looked up eagerly when she heard them. "There you are! Tanrial, I need ta draw you next!"
"Where's Bernon?" Mike asked.
"Upstairs."
Mike nodded and went to find him. "Have fun, you guys."
Snatch gestured magnanimously at the chair opposite. "Sit down."

Tanrial laughed a little, "Alright then, you're the boss." She did as Snatch said, and sat down opposite her.
(alright, seeya)

Snatch held up her work-in-progress, which was a picture of all four of them standing in a row. "You go between me an' Bernon," she said, starting to draw again. "I'mma draw you with fire cuz you can use fire like me."

Tanrial smiled, “Ah, it’s very good. You truly are an artist.”
(Alright, I might not be on to see you then since I have Home ec next so…)

"Yes, I'm gonna be the best artist ever." She started in, glancing up once in a while to get a better look at her subject. "What were you and Mike talking about out there?"

Tanrial blinked a few times before trying a smile, “Nothing interesting. Just grown up stuff that will bore you a lot.”
(Sorry I couldn’t be on much, seeya soon! ^^)

"Mmm." Luckily Snatch seemed completely engrossed in the tricky task of drawing Tanrial's hair, and didn't detect any trace of dishonesty. "Well, I'll be a grown up soon, and when I am, I'll never talk about boring stuff. Only cool stuff."

“Ah, I’m sure you will. Although there’s lots of boring stuff that will go along with bein an adult.” Tanrial said, letting out a small sigh.

"Pff. Not for me!" Snatch set down her pencil and slid the page across the table. "There, all done. You like?"

Tanrial nodded and smiled at the page, “You’ve drawn as all very accurately, I love it.”

Snatch grinned from ear to ear. "Thanks! You can keep it….if you want."

(I'm so sorry I couldn't be on today, school was insane ^^)
"Really? I'd love to but it is your drawing, shouldn't you keep it?" Tanrial said, smiling softly at her.

"Naw," Snatch replied graciously. "I'll keep the other two. I want you to have that one."
At that moment Mike and Bernon came back downstairs. They looked like they'd been arguing. Bernon strode across the room and out the door without speaking to them, but Mike came over and leaned against the table with an unreadable expression.
"Well," he said. "I'm going to go scout out a good place to lure in the water beast. You still up for helping with that, Snatch?"
"Yeah!" Snatch said, busy stuffing the badly-folded drawings into the pocket of her dress.
"Okay, good. In the mean time, you guys should probably train some more, and maybe make sure Bernon doesn't go storming into the woods and get himself lost. I'll be back late this afternoon."

"Where are you going?" Tanrial asked, standing and gently folding the drawing and placing it in her pocket, "What the hell did you say to Bernon?" She looked to the door then back to Mike, her expression less then pleased.

He paused on his way out. "I'll probably skirt the lake and look for an open spot surrounded by good cover. And I told him the same thing I told you. He didn't take it well, but that's on him. Either he cools down or he doesn't, but I hope he does. I could use his help tonight."

Tanrial sighed, “Alright, come on Snatch, let’s go find Bernon and you need to practice your magic.” She said, turning to her.

"Okay!" Snatch bounced to her feet and ran to the door. "I get to burn more things?"

Tanrial shrugged, “Controlled burning yes, nothing big.” She said, following her out into the pier.

"Kay." Snatch shifted into cheetah form and started sniffing around on the sand. "I wonder where Bernon went? I want to show him my fire too."

“Let’s go find him then.” Tanrial said, walking into the forest.

They didn't have to walk very far before Snatch lifted her head. "He went this way." She followed a narrow path through the trees until it reached a small stream running towards the lake. Bernon sat at the bank, slowly flipping through one of his journals. He didn't look up when they approached.
