Orion signed with relief when Jora sat up. "Hey Jora," he said with a weak smile. I hope she's okay.

Ember walked forward a bit. 'You okay A'ine? She sent, hoping A'ine hasn't exhausted herself again.

Jora heard Orion and her fear heightened a little. Had he been there the whole time? She didn't know what to do. She stood up slowly and closed her eyes. She wasn't sure where she was. She felt her nervous ness rising like the fire and start swaying a little from the heat she was starting to feel.

A'ine stood up slowly. "I'll be fine after a shower..." She felt Jora's distress. "Orion, Give her some space... She's not feeling well and if you touch her she'll hate herself later when you get hurt." She said exhaustively.

Orion nodded reluctantly. A'ine was right. He stood up.

Ember asked the question that has been nagging in the back of her mind for a while. A'ine, what did you mean when you said it was your fault?

Jora's skin went to a darker orange as her hands got brighter. "You guys may want to close your eyes..." A'ine said after looking back at Jora. She looked over at Ember. 'I'll tell you later...' She thought about adding to it but decided it would be enough.

Orion closed his eyes, but he didn't steep back.

Ember closed her eyes, not pressing A'ine for answers.

(Ugh, I guess my lightener broke.)

(Have this nifty sword I found! *Throws sword.*)

A'ine closed her eyes and felt the heat on her eye lids. She saw the light flash on the other side of her eyelids. She waited until total darkness was on the other side to open them. When she did she saw Jora was back to normal but her skin had to still be hot. Jora tured on her heels hugging herself as she walked back towards the castle.

Orion turned to A'ine. "Should I jet her be, or go get her?" He asked, not wanting to upset Jora further.
(Thanks!*catches sword*)

A'ine smiled at Orion standing straight. "I think you should go get her's and your books off the grass and hold on to them for tonight. She'll have to get them back from you sometime." She yawn and turned back to Ember. "Should I take a shower before bed?" She asked as she caught a wiff of her sea weed smelling sweat.

Jora ran in side and up to her dorm and just flopped in bed crying a little.

Orion nodded, picking up the books and saying, "Well, goodnight." He walked up to his dorm. He opened the door and set everything down carefully so he wouldn't disturb his roommate.
(Could Alderic be Orion's roommate?)

Ember smiled. "Yeah, I guess so," she said. Now that everything was over she realized why she has been trying to block her emotions from A'ine. Why am I jealous of Jora? Just because A'ine stopped talking with me because Jora needed help. I'm so selfish!

(XD Sure! But Alderic's sitting on the window sill with the blinds closed! ^^)
Alderic sighed. He had screwed up bad. He had seen the brightness outside and could tell it had been fire. He knew they were alright when he looked out the window and saw some people coming back in.

A'ine couldn't help but relax her mind and just try and ignore everyone. She caught the last little bit of Ember's thought on accident. "What do you mean you're selfish?" She asked touching her shoulder looking into her eyes.
