"A good enough point."She flipped her hood up at the sight of some unwanted eyes."I do hope we are nearing our destination...... I do not want to attract unwanted attention."Maim scratched her scarred arm the leathery skin pulling at her finger tips.'I am done for now child you may have your fun.'Maim retracted into her mind and let Joy take control of their body.
Joy stumbled, but quickly corrected herself as she gained control of her body."Th-thank you....... for stopping Maim that is."She blushed a little at the thought."I don't like it when she takes control."

Ember smirked, she'd found an interesting charge. "Not neccesary, as I said, I got something out of it." She ducked into a very small ally and into a crack previously covered by a ratty sack. a few secounds later her hand emerged to wave the girl in.

Joy hurried in after Ember trying to attract as little attention as possible. She looked around for the other boy."Where's that other boy that was with you. Shouldn't he be here with us."Joy shivered in her tattered clothes as a cold breeze blew through.
Maim mentally shivered as well.'You think that here in the fire nation that there wouldn't a cold updraft.'

Ember grinned as the girl shivered, a fire instantly leaping at a pile of uplifted floorboards in time with the gleam in her eye. Few could will their abilities without a physical gesture. "Sorry, teaching Flint to build and store his own heat... I forget how cold it is to those who can't" She reached out the gap they'd entered and pulled the cover back over the hole to hide the light. All other holes where blocked by one thing or another. there were a few vents placed away from any light, but nothing to give away her location. "He wen't to collect some things." He'd asked to get dinner on his own tonight. She usually hunted the city streets herself, but letting flint scower the market was okay every now and then. She'd allow it more often if they had the money to waist...

Maim mentally smirked at the girls control.'She is a powerful one. Few can conjure flames without wild gestures to control them...... I wonder where she learned her teachings.'
Joy looked on in amazement she would never be able to control her powers in such a way."Wow! Do it again, do it again."She smiled as the flames warmed her up. Joy could not remember the last time she smiled like that. It must have been years since she had done so.

Ember snickered, the girl was as funny as Flint with her excitement. She decided to humor her as she ficked her wrist in her direction and threw a few of her favorite butterfly sparks to flutter above her. "Those are hot." She told the girl as she walked over to a ragetty old chair and flopped into it, her feet dangling over one arm, her neck resting on the other.

Joy was messmerized but the butterflies. She let went to go touch the flame with her scarred hand controlling the flame so she could touch it."What do you call them?"She asked as the butterfly fluttered it's wings at her fingertips.
Maim huffed at the childish flame."Tis only a parlor trick nothing more. Many fire calgors can do this."She never did understand Joy's amazement of almost anything trivial.

Ember shrugged. "Flint likes them." she said and as if senceing Maim's displeasure, alowed them to flicker into different colors and temperatures. Her favorite being a brilient green that could burn you from a distance. She cooled that one as to not harm her guest. "Flint calls them spark flies." She answered. "But they really don't have a set name."

"Spark flies."Joy giggled as she let the spark fly fly away."They're really pretty."She looked to the green one in amazement."Green that's my favorite color."She raised her hand and created a blue one from the flames."Hehehe this is fun."She controlled it easily in her happiness.

Ember sighed and allowed her flying sparks to fizzle out as without a calgor's will they have no fuel. "Flint will be back in a sec." She told joy as she prepared to relax and maybe even nap a bit. "Do remember not to bug him. He's very timid."

Joy nodded her head as she sat down quietly waiting."I need to leave this place anyway. To many people know about Maim.... They will try to find me now even though it wasn't me who did anything."She sat solemnly rubbing her fingers together.
Maim scoffed as the child complained."Stop your blubbering child I have saved you more times then you can possibly imagine... I can't possibly imagine what you would do without me. I am after all the only one that is smart enough to live off of what we find."She spoke this to Joy a little annoyed.

Ember looked over at joy. "No one will look for you here." She yahned. "Stay as long as you like.
Flint ran in, out of breath and sweating. "miss Ember I got 'em!" He anounced, then sputtered as he jerked to a stop. Eyes on Joy. He dropped his bags and dashed into a small alcove covered by a sheet.

Joy smiled again and nodded over joyed that she would get to stay. She turned to Flint as she ran in yelling out of happiness. As soon as he made eye contact he bolted."Um hi my names Joy... What's your name?"

Ember chuckled and collected the things Flint had dropped. "Flint won't be speaking to you much." She said. "Like I told you. He's very timid."
Flint pulled the old sheet over the openig to his little corner. Ember had rigged the area a few days ago when they moved into the building. It was an old window couch. She'd boarded over the window and hung the sheet so it was seperate from the main room. now flint used it to hide from the stranger.

Joy nodded and turned back to Flint's hiding spot."Oh okay.... It was nice meeting you flint."She curled up into a ball and went to sleep.
Maim scoffed and tried to mentally relax.'I hate being cooped up in this body.... I need to take control more often.'She relaxed her mind and drifted asleep as well.
