Healing: After the Summit

Sasuno'o put his hand on her shoulder and smiled at her "Don't worry....if you're nervous...I'm here, nothing will ever hurt you as long as I'm here" he said kissing her. He pulled her in tight and wrapped his large, lengthly robes around both of them, using it like a makeshift blanket and kissed her again. His large black robes hung loosely on both of their shoulders. He had his arms around her tight and both of their bodies were pressed together in a loving embrace, he looked down at her as they put thier foreheads together, again kissing each other. "I will protect you, I swear..." he said kissing her neck and nuzzling her "You will never die as long as I am your love."

(OOC: If you wanna get to the action you can sis, but I remember I still wanna do the morning thing, there's something I had worked out and I'd hate to loose that chance to use it....thanks sis)

Tsukaia returned the kiss, wrapping her arms around his muscular form. They nuzzled and made out, Tsukaia feeling more comfortable with each passing minute. Reaching up, she removed his shirt and, pleased to see that his wounds were doing a lot better, lay on the sand. After an evening of love and affection, she fell asleep in her lover's arms.

Sasuno'o woke up the next morning, the waves nipping at his feet. He looked over at Tsukaia, she was soundly asleep in his arms, Sasuno'o gave a soft smile as the breeze blew. It was a little cold and they were both lying there naked in the sand. Sasuno'o pulled his robes around them tighter, they used it as a blanket last night. Sasuno'o pulled tighter until it was snug up to their necks. Sasuno'o held Tsukaia closer to him and used his fire bending to heat up his body to a loving warmth that Tsukaia often enjoyed. "Rest well my love" he said "Today we start the real training, and you'll need your strength to master the green flames"

Tsukaia softly inhaled and exhaled, feeling a sweet warmth course through her. She woke up, peering deep into her love's eyes. Hard fragments of sand dug into her skin, and she recognized a clear blue sky. "How'd I get on a beach?" she mumbled, before events of last night flashed by.

"Oh. That," she said, reaching around for her clothes. Only after she slipped them on did she realized Sasuno'o was awake. She must've looked a mess; her skin covered in sand. Hair grimy and dark. "Good morning," she said kindly.

Sasuno'o got dressed also he stood up and walked over to Tsukaia "Good morning to you too" he said kissing her forehead. "Shall we start your training?" he asked "You'll need to start sooner than later."

Tsukaia brushed sand off her arms and legs, the salt in the air stinging her eyes somewhat. Her clothes were stiff from the salt water. Her hair was dark and muddied. She'd never felt this dirty in the while.

But she replied strongly and excitedly. "Yes, Sasuno'o. What do I need to do first?"

"Store up rage...anger....bitterness...your hate...keep it stored up" he said "This will heat up your bending, and if your fire is heated to the right degree....it should turn green...but first...you must learn to use your hate to fuel your bending...and not use your spirit and heart" he told her looking out across the ocean.

Tsukaia lamented for a moment, feeling a sudden rage boil up thinking about Tsukiyomi. She extended her arm and opened her palm. A flicker of pale red fire flickered there, just a tint away from becoming pink. How does it become pink? she wondered. Was her chi pink or something? How was it going to turn green?

She concentrated hard, feeling the red glow shift into pink. She hated Tsukiyomi so much; the things he said about Sasuno'o... he must regret them!

Also Tekara; she was always complaining about Sasuno'o and paying more attention to Kiari. Kiari was a fool and a weakling. If it weren't for the spirit, he'd be dead!

Tsukaia paused, the fire had went from an almost-lavender pink to a pale, burning light pink. It'd hotten hotter! "S-Sasuno'o!" she said in surprise.

Sasuno'o smiled "Great job Tsukaia, you're getting the hang of it...more rage though, you need more rage...then the flames will become Green....but for now...that is a good start" he said kissing her cheek.

Tsukaia melted from the kiss; the flames turning from a pale pink back to its common orange-red. "You know I can never stay angry if you kiss me like that," she teased, attempting to summon back her rage.

Tsukiyomi's face drifted across her field of vision, and the fire burst into a kind of hot pink, then brightened into its pale pallor again. "Better," she said thoughtfully. "But not how I wanted."
