Asami saw the ball headed straight for her and froze. It hit her square in the chest and she flew back a few feet because the force of the ball. She got up slowly. She could feel the red welt on her chest rising under her shirt. She made her way over to Zeno tears spilling out of her eyes.. that really hurt..

Sighing a little, Taki saw Asa get hit with the ball, knowing Azure would have been gunning for both him and her. Shaking his head, he grabbed another ball before chucking it towards Phoebe.

Phoebe rolled out of the way before the ball hit her. The game itself lasted a while and soon there was only a few people left. On phoebes side it was Phoebe, Sia, azure, holly and Darren.

On Taki's side, the only people remaining were Taki, Conner, Fay, and Casey.
Grinning, the three boys all began thinking the same thing as they each held a ball in hand. Sia was far too quick to be hit by a single target coming at her, so all three of them chuckled there balls at her full force.

Phoebe threw herself in front of Sia taking the brunt of all collisions. She walked off with red welter on her arms whispering "you had better do me well Sia."
Sia gathered a few balls and shot one at fay hitting her leg. She threw two more at Conner. Holly darted around Sia knowing she was the best bet for their team to win.

With Fay out, Conner ducked down low, dodging the balls that were thrown at him before they all grabbed their balls again. "Again." Taki told them both, ready to aim at Sia, though Azure held a ball behind his back. The moment all threw chucked their balls at Sia, Azure threw his ball with all his might at Taki, popping the white haired male in the chest.

Holly tried to protect Sia as Phoebe did but didn't do so well. She got hit as well as Sia. "damn.. " holly muttered as both of them left the stage.
This left azure and Darren alone to fight on their side.

Both Conner and Casey grabbed a few balls that were on their side, knowing their previous tactics worked pretty were, so they quickly chucked their balls at Azure.

Darren grabbed a ball hoping to hit one of the two guys while they aimed at azure. He threw it and hoped it hit his mark.

Even though Azure got hit, Darren's ball managed to hit Casey, taking him out of the game. Now it only remained Conner and Darren, and the bell was about to ring. It was now anybody's game, and Conner quickly picked up a ball and chucked it at Darren.

Darren had no time to grab a ball and was hit. Takis team won. Half the room erupted in cheers while the other half groaned.

"Dammit..." Azure said, groaning a bit, knowing even though he had won his battles, the war was lost in the end, and as half the class cheered, the bell rang, indicating class was ending. "Alright, everyone, hit the showers and change before heading to your next class." Mr. Thomas told them before the bleachers began to empty.

Phoebe asami Sia and the other girls all made their way to the locker room.
"Oh gosh asami.. we need to put something on that welt" Sia exclaimed. "It looks pretty nasty..."
Asami shook her head and got dressed quickly. And left to go to the next class before the rest of the girls were done.

The boys walked into the locker room, a few talking amongst one another, while the others stayed silent and got dressed. It wasn't long until they were all finished dressing themselves before walking out of the gym and began to head to their abilities class, where they now had about five minutes to get to.

Phoebe and Sia rushed to get changed and followed asami to their next class. They felt like she was rather upset about something and they wanted to help. They sat next to her in the bleachers of the second gym and Sia gave asami a big hug
"What is wrong?" Phoebe asked nicely.
Asami just shook her head "nothing I am fine."
Soon the rest of the class spilled in and fay had also joined the group.
"Hey.." she seemed a little shy but nice. "I'm fay" she introduced herself to Phoebe and Sia.
They both greated her then waited for the teacher.

When the bell rang, Mrs. Lecher walked inside of the gym and smiled at her students. "Good afternoon class." she told them before standing at the center of the bleachers. "Today, I thought it would give would benefit everyone to group off in pairs with their chosen partners they are doing jobs with, and work with them on their abilities." she explained to them.

Asami was really scared to hear that she would be paired up with azure. She felt rather worried that he might yell at her or something. He hit her with that ball really hard...

Phoebe chuckled and went to find Zeno to practice with.

Sighing, Azure looked over at Asami and made his way over towards her, not liking this too much, but he had no choice. He would obviously be spending a lot of time with her from now on apparently. "Now, make sure you all start to work on things you are having the most trouble with." Mrs. Lecher said, ready to go around to help the pairs.

Asami got up and walked over to azure. "Hey.." she said blushing a little. She knew this would be torture on him and didn't want to make it even worse.

"Hey..." he said to Asami, looking at her, taking a deep breath for a moment. "So uh...what are you having trouble on?" he asked her, calming down a little bit.

"I don't know.. I'm having trouble with this friend I made. I think.. he hates me and wants me to disappear or something..." she blinked away tears before sitting down next to.azure.

"What are you talking about?" he asked her, looking over at her for a moment, knowing she was talking about him. "I'm...sorry." he told Asami, looking away a little. He didn't know how much he was hurting her, when she was only trying to be nice.

She shook her head and placed her hand on his own. They were very warm compaired to her cold ones. "Its okay.. I just want this person to understand that he means a lot to me and no matter how much he hurts me I will always be there for him.." she looked down at her lap and removed her hand.

As she removed her hand, Azure looked over at her to take it back, taking her hand into his and squeezed it gently. "I'm...sorry for letting my pride get in the way." he said, looking over and smiled at her for the first time in the past few hours.

Asami smiled and squeezed back. "Does this mean we are friends again??" She tilted her head slightly while she watched him

He looked over at Asami and nodded towards her, his heart racing quickly as his eyes locked onto her luscious lips. He began to blush brightly before he moved in and gently placed his lips upon hers in a kiss, hoping he didn't overstep his boundaries.

She froze for a second surprised by his action but melted into it. She parted her lips slightly kissing him in earnest. She felt a little giddy because this was her first kiss and it was going so well. Her lips fit his so perfectly.

As they kissed, Azure's face turned bright red, this being his first kiss as well. After a bit, he pulled back slightly before smiling at her. "I'm sorry...I couldn't resist." he told her, looking down at the ground, his usually composed self in a state of both nervousness and bliss from the kiss.

She flushed brightly "oh it was okay with me..." she shuffled her feet.." you could ummm.. you know.. do it more if you... wanted?" She ended her sentence as a question for him to answer wondering if she was just dreaming this or if it really happened.

"I-I would like to..." he told Asami, his face burning before leaning in for another kiss before the teacher clapped at them. "Alright, thats enough you two, please get to work." she told them. "There is enough time for that after school." she said.

Asami blushed and sputtered a bit "s-s-sorry!" She squeeked out. "so yeah ummm... abilities and stuff... what ummm.. are we supposed to do again?" She asked azure blushing brightly

"W-We are...supposed to work on them." he told Asami, looking away for a moment. "So um...what are you having trouble with?" he asked, though he knew that there wasn't much he could really teach her since she was way more experienced in magic than he was.

"Well.I wanted to learn how to do elemental magic like you..." she shuffled her feet around more out of nervousness. "It just seems pretty cool.."

"I think I should be able to teach it to you." he told her, knowing she was probably a quick learner. "I'd like to learn some of that practical magic of yours too." he said.

"What kinds would you like to know? I have an arsenal of spells in my head ready to use." She smiled the blush slowly fading from her face. "I also brought a few of my aunts special books with me. Maybe we could read together?"

"Perhaps teleporting would be very useful, both in a fight, and in everyday situations." he told her, smiling again as his blush began to fade as well. "And I would like that." he said, taking her hand gently and began to leader her down to where they had room to practice.

"Okay that's a rather simple one. But you cant do it in most places. Like these buildings for instance have spells on them that make teleporting in or anything impossible but you can teleport out." She smiled "ive already tried. Okay our goal.is to teleport to that space over there." She pointed to a spot a little ways away. "Watch me and then try it." She stuck her arms up, scrunched her face in concentration, twirled around clockwise and was gone for a second and reappeared in the spot she pointed out. Then did the same thing and reappeared next to him again. "The trick is to imagine the place in your mind and concentrate on it. Your technique may be different than mine like some people only need to spin around to move while others don't even need to move. It just depends on the person." She smiled "now you try. And don't be embarrassed if you don't get it. Remember let your body move you."

Azure nodded and watched as she demonstrated the technique for him before she explained how she did it. Glad to have her teaching him some magic that would be very useful, he paid close attention to her. Finally it was his turn to give it a try. He thought it would be a little silly if he was the one twirling around so he stood still as he focused over to the spot where she told him, imagining he was over there in that spot. "Cmon...I can do this..." he told himself aloud.

She watched him attempt it hoping he would get it. She sensed he had a lot of untapped power in him and she knew she would be the one to help him unlock it. Comeon you can do it. I believe in you. She thought these things for him, feeling he would get it

Azure concentrated harder, a little embarrassed now that that he couldn't get it. Though, just when he was about ready to give up, he disappeared before reappearing at the spot he had concentrated hard on, and he smiled brightly over at Asami. "I did it!" he told her.
