Flynn stood at the edge of the great desert. He breathed in the metallic scent of rich mineral sand."This place isn't that bad if you know where to find water. And we're water calgor's it will be pretty to come by."He looked down to the little girl known as Shimmer."Trust me after a nice hike through the desert you will learn from the experience and be better for it........ As long as your up to it. I mean I'm an old man, and I can handle it."Flynn said smiling.

Emory sped along the wide expance of blistering sand. He just loved it out here. He swung up a ton of sand and erode one of the towering stone pillers that pock-marked the Eternal Dessert. This dessert extends all the way out to the coast he knew. And that was over eight-teen thousand miles away. He grined as he spun his sand into a desert twister but sighed as he couldn't call up any wind. Instead he shoved the sand up into the air and made it mimic a mushrooming cloud from an explosion, He loved the solitude of the desserts. He pullled out his canteen as a scattering shower of sand began to fall.

"Okay..." she was a bit unsure now that she was face to face with the desert, but it could be worse...and Flynn was able to survive. Plus he had a point, they were water calgors, if anyone could find a source of water, they could. Though getting to water was a whole other matter.
Gazing out into the distance the little girl noticed something messing with the sand.
"What's that?" she asked, pointing.

Emory basked in his sandy shower, not even realixing he was acting like a child in a sand box. He waked his hand creating a bubble of clean air around him. He snickered as he dispelled the sand from his hair then sighed in resignation. He hated not having a directive. And now that he fought with Sina he had to stay out of the main stream of things. As his mood fell he let out an angered cry and blew sand miled into the air and in all directions. The force of his angered thrust brought force those winds he'd been so envious of and he laughed at his own foolishness.

Flynn watched as the mushroom cloud grew bigger."I have no earthly idea........ Maybe we should check it out."He walked can in in hand towards the cloud of sand."Come on little one I'm sure it's not that bad."Flynn raised a bandanna over his mouth to protect it from the mighty sand. Once he was on the edge of the storm he saw the boy in the middle of it venting his anger."Well hello there."He greeted the boy in a friendly smile."Would you be so kind as to quite down this storm your brewing....... It's giving me a terrible ache in my bones."

Shimmer didn't think it was a good idea to be approaching this guy. He seemed rather angry, and she didn't want a fight on her hands.
"Mr. Flynn I don't think this is a good idea, perhaps we should just leave him alone," she said softly, watching the older boy worriedly.

Emory froze in mid laugh and the sand froze with him. They stood in acurtain of sand. Emory turned around to look at these two crazy people andhis laughter bubbled back up. With his location he'd figured he'd had a fight on his hands but it turned out to be a toddler and her grandpa. He hadn't laughed like this since before he could remember. He sobered up and sat on his but. He crossed his legs and grinned. "sure thing sir." E anounced and let the tons of sand barrel into the groune leaving them in a vally. "So what brings you two kind people out ths way?" He smiled and took a drink out of his canteen. "Would you like little mis?" He asked as he held it out to the little girl dressed in rags. He figured she was a runaway but figured he'd be polight and prtend not to notice.

"We are just two wandering travelers, wanting to take in the beauty of the world."Flynn stopped the boy from giving her the canteen."No need we brought our own."He made a motion to shimmer signifying he would explain later."Thats an amazing ability you have there sonny........ Did your father teach you that trick?"He questioned the boy still smiling.

Emory's smile wavered at the thought of his family. "No, I'm afrade he tought me nothing sir." He answered "Twas all trial and error. I've no true family to speak of as it were." E stood up and put his canteen away. "Well sorry for the disply earlier, wont happen again." he turndhis back on the duo and drew his rock hover bord to him and hopped on. "Where would you two be going anyway?" He asked. "I'm sure you took a rong turn some time ago." He joked. "He desert doesn't end till you reach the seas and then ther are no ships to speakof out this way." E looked at them oddly. "I come out here all the time release steem and you know what? You're the first living creachers I've met so far." He sat cross legged on his rock board that he kept levitated over the sand.

Shimmer simply stood and stared. Hoping nothing bad would happen, she had the most awful feeling for some reason. Though the girl undoubtedly had trust issues, she still didn't quite understand Flynn or trust him completely.

Flynn smiled at patted Shimmer on the back."We're here simply on........"He paused to find the right word."Vacation I guess you could say. I have always found this desert calming, and if you look in the right places you can find a lustorous paradise hidden within the mighty dunes."

Emory laughed but stopped and apolized. "I'm sorry but I think you have the wrong place here." Helooked around. "sure there are plenty of under ground rivers and a few wells..." E smiled "BuI've been all over this barren wast land and there Is't one desent, non contaminated pool in the lot." He stood and drifted a little higher into the air so his short stature was at eye level to theold man. "There isn't even the usual plantlife untill you near the coast." He was aware he was being little rude but ignored it. "Sorry to disturb you." E swung around and lowered himself to the girl. "Have we met?" He asked, looking at her closely. "You look awfully familier."

Shimmer backed up slightly at the scrutiny and shook her head. "I do not believe so, sir." she said softly. "Not that I'm aware of."

"That's it." He said. "the little firey girl from the markets!" He looked confused for a secound. "Though you were a lot more feirce then..." He backed away slightly but continued to eye the girl. "You caused quite a bit of trouble down there you know." He smiled. "I doubt they'll be done fixing up those shops any time soon." He laughed merrily. "Why'd you blow up those buildings and set that fire anyway?" He asked. "Not that I mind, It was an agreeable distraction." He winked and then looked at her again. "You were little better dressed, though not by much. Still not in rags like that..." He offered his canteen again. "So where is it your going to be causing trouble this time?"

"I'm sorry, but I have no idea what you are talking about," she said, biting her lip. Could he possibly be talking about her sister? Description seemed to fit. Her sister did have quite the temper. "I'm a water calgor, and though I'm resourceful, I do not set fires."
She reached out for the canteen warily, eyeing the boy suspiciously.
