Vapor was out the door, and was glad to find that the storm was moving away quickly. Thinking up a way to get fish that would be the most efficient the calgor headed towards the bank. Grinning broadly he dove into the water using his abilities Vapor shot several fish out of the water and onto the bank of the island. After getting out he shook himself off and headed over, picking up the fish as he went.
Oh, so the puppy dog eyes would work on others too? She smiled mischievously at that thought. She wondered faintly what changed when boys became men, but the thought quickly faded when she said she'd learn when she was an adult. Her uncle had told her that before when she'd asked a question on where children came from and she wondered faintly if the two were linked somehow...
At the mention of what Eve had planned for their meal the girl nodded. "That sounds good!"

"I thought you might like that." Eve smiled as she turned the oven to steam cook the rice. While she cooked Eve caught something in her peripheral vision. It was fish being shot out of the water. "Looks like Vapor is having an easy time with the fish." At the thought of Vapor her mind went back to the hints she had been giving in the past few days. "So Kyoto I'm a little curious. Is your uncle, oh I don't know.... seeing anybody?"

Kyoto's ears perked and she glanced at Eve before a mischievous look crossed her face for a split second. Looking at the woman innocently the girl shook her head. "Nope, nu-uh, he's as free as a bird!"
It was about that time that Vapor walked in carrying his catch a child like grin on his face. "I haven't done anything like that in a long time. I forgot how much fun it is."

"Ah Vapor! Ow!" Eve was startled that Vapor had came in so fast and had burned her finger on the oven in reaction. "Damn thing burned me." She held her middle finger close to her body in pain. "I should be more aware then that." She mumbled under her breath.

"Are you alright Miss Eve?" Kyoto asked concerned. Vapor put down his catch and walked over, gently taking Eve's hand and carefully inspecting it. He whistled.
"You did a number!" Releasing her hand he headed towards a cabinet, pulling out a jar and a roll of bandages. "Hold out your hand please."

Eve blushed slightly when Vapor grabbed her hand. "Is it really that bad." She held out her hand towards Vapor when he grabbed the bandages. "I've had worse before Vapor.... but thank you. Most people tend to simply ignore me for being a human. I can't remember the last time a Calgor showed any kindness to me." She smiled scratching the back of her head. "But you guys don't want to hear about that."

"Well, even if it isn't bad you still want to keep it covered up and also this salve should help heal it faster," he said a serious look on his face for a moment but it quickly faded as he began to apply the salve to her hand. Once he figured there was just the right amount the calgor began to carefully wrap up her hand with the bandages. "Yeah, I've never really understood it, but that's probably because of my mother. She was a very kind hearted calgor and taught all three of us to treat humans like we would a fellow calgor."
Kyoto piped up happily. "Mama said that you guys used to live in the human territories during one of the wars."
"Hm, she'd be right," Vapor said as he carefully tied off the bandage. "There, that should do it."

There was a blush still clearly evident on Eve's cheeks. "Thanks handsome, I'll be sure to pay you back." She winked at Vapor giving him a smirk. "Speaking of the war my Dad was in it, he was the one to teach me how to use a sword." Eve smiled lovingly at the remembrance of her departed father. "Always said I had to learn to be able to defend myself since I didn't inherit my family's abilities." Eve checked the rice and found that they were finished. "Gods bless the poor mans soul."

A light dusting of color appeared on the water calgor's face. "You're welcome."
His ears perked at the mention of her father being in a war. "Which one? I fought in the most recent, that was...five years ago now?"
Time was flying, and he couldn't really remember when he'd enlisted. How old had he been again, sixteen, seventeen? All he remembered during that time was being angry, unbelievably so. Looking back at it now it was like looking at an entirely different person.
The way she talked about her father had a gentle smile on his face, "Sounds like you two were close."

"My father would have fought along aside you, or against you I'm not so sure on the exacts of the war." Eve took the rice off the stove and put it on three plates. "Can you hand me the fish Vapor?" She went to set the stove to cook the fish. "My father and I were very close before he died."
Her Father had been a good man. He had been hard working and hard pressed to give her, her mother, and her sisters a better life. Eve's father always made sure to find time for his four daughters. She had loved him.... they had all loved him.
"But unfortunately he was one of the many casualties. And that left me to support my family. Thats why you found me in the Bad Lands Vapor." She turned looking at the two. "I was collecting bounties for Deluge."

"Wind and Fire allied themselves, while Earth and Water did the same," he said, he nodded and headed over to the fish, picking it up he handed it to her. At the mention of him being a casualty of the war Vapor's mouth drew into a grim line. Back then it had been different, he hadn't cared about a single life he'd taken, but when he looked back he couldn't help but regret. The water calgor knew that was how war was, and he knew he was only doing what was ordered but when he thought of what he'd done, how many families he'd tore apart."I'm sorry to hear that."
"You're lucky you didn't get hurt Miss Eve, or worse," Kyoto said softly, looking down at her hands. "Uncle Deluge isn't nice..."

"It's alright Vapor. War is war, theres bound to be people hurt on either side." Eve scaled the fish and began to cook the fish on the skillet. "I'm sure others lost fathers, husbands, lovers, and brothers." She flipped the fish using the skillet alone. "Please just call me Eve Kyoto, and yes Deluge is not nice. That why I helped Vapor out there when I did."

Oh she'd forgotten. Blushing a bit the girl said softly, "Sorry. Well, I'm glad you helped him! Uncle Deluge has been really mean to Uncle Vapor for a long time. Since they were young. That's what mama said."
"How much has your mother been telling you?" Vapor asked, he was almost expressionless for a moment. He didn't like the idea that his sister had told her what she had. Heck, Kyoto was too young to know some of what went on when Mist, Deluge, and Vapor had been children. There had only been one person outside their family to know what had happened. Still, it didn't seem like Mist had told her everything. Not yet, at least. Maybe when she was older she would.
"The last thing she talked about concerning that was that everything began to fall apart after your guys' mama died. Though, she didn't say too much, not even how grandma died, but mama said she was a sweet calgor."
A gentle smile played across his face for a moment, "Yeah, she was Kyoto. You would've liked her and she really would've liked you."

"Annnnnnnd voila!" Eve flipped the last fish onto a plate. "Bon appetite!" She sprinkled some curry onto each plate and placed each plate at the table. "I think this is my best fish and rice yet." Eve took a deep breath above her plate and soaked in the smell. "Ahhhhh it smells delicious, well just don't wait on me guys dig in." She went over to the sink and washed her hands.

Kyoto placed her hands together and bowed towards Eve before picking up her utensils. "Thank you very much!"
Vapor nodded his thanks as well before picking up his utensils as well and taking a bite took a bite. His eyes widened for a moment. "Wow, this is really great!"
Kyoto took a bite of hers ans smiled brightly. "Awa! This is amazing!"
