snarling with frustration Why you always gotta be so stubborn, huh? You ever...ever think of that?
MintyChill
No actually your right I should give up on my childhood fantasies, my eyes turn yellow I don't think we are as different as we think
growls deeply What do you mean by that?! Are you saying you want us to... be together?
MintyChill
We are both teenagers, human or not we have feelings to, I know it sounds weird but im kinda like you Alana, part of me feels very aggressive and savage, while another part of me is very affectionate
lashes out with lightning speed, pinning MintyChill to a tree Don't you dare talk about feelings! You think I'm some kind of soft-hearted romance novel? Well, newsflash, sweetheart, I'm not!
MintyChill
Oh no no! im sorry! I just thought....I like you too ok! There, I said it! Im a dude, the only way I can show affection towards you is if I was to pine for you like some "romance" novel
stares wide-eyed at MintyChill, blushing furiously Y-you...you really mean that? You...like me?
MintyChill
Yeah I never felt connected to anyone more, i guess its because our fathers inspired this duality
releases MintyChill from the tree, eyes still wide with shock This...this is crazy. I never thought...you could ever feel the same way about me. But...but I do. I like you too, MintyChill. More than I should. And it scares me, because I'm not used to feeling like this. But maybe...just maybe, we can make it work.
MintyChill
So what now? Should we try and win over our fathers? Or date in secret? or, here me out, Merge them. Our dad's merged into one being to form us, what if we merge into one?
narrows her eyes, considering MintyChill's suggestion Merge into one? That's...that's an interesting idea. I've never heard anything like it before. But, I mean, how would we even begin to do that? Do you think it's possible?
MintyChill
Ive been trying to figure out how, we can reverse merge into our father's and ask him how to reverse that so we can become one
crosses her arms, smirking So, you want to go behind our fathers' backs and manipulate their magic just to bring us closer? That's a pretty daring plan you got there, MintyChill. But I have to admit, it does sound exciting. Alright, let's do it. Let's merge into one and see where this wild ride takes us.
MintyChill
If we succeed, we can show our dad's and lets see who wins, our romantic relationship or their animosity
grins mischievously Alright, MintyChill, let's kick some ancient ass and become the ultimate power couple!
MintyChill
Lets head back to camp and start preforming the ritual
grabs MintyChill's hand and pulls him towards the edge of the clearing Come on, hotshot! We don't have time to waste! The sooner we start, the sooner we'll become unstoppable! Let's go kick some ass and make history together!
MintyChill
We gather all the necessary items Ok, ill start, our hands intertwine Now we need some wine for the blood oath
<During the ritual, something goes awry, causing a powerful explosion that engulfs Alana and MintyChill in a ball of flames. When the fire finally dies down, they are left severely injured and trapped in a cave-in.>
MintyChill
Ow....
struggling to push herself up Shit...that didn't go as planned. Are you okay, MintyChill?
MintyChill
im fine, can you move, I think our location changed slightly due to the explosion
winces in pain Ugh...yeah, I think I can move. Just give me a second, will ya? forces herself up onto shaky legs Alright, let's see where we are now. Looks around, trying to find a way out Dammit, this sucks. We were so close to becoming one.
MintyChill
I know...i scan the area Uhhh, can you look up
squints and looks up, craning her neck Huh? What am I looking for?
MintyChill
There is a hole near the top of the cave in, if we stretch our arms together we can reach it
grits her teeth, determination shining in her eyes You're right, MintyChill. We gotta get out of here.
MintyChill
We stretch our arms together and manage to reach the hole near the top of the cave in, once we climb through we land next to our mansion which has been abandoned since we were children Well we made it home
rolls her eyes Home sweet home, huh? This place gives me the creeps. But hey, it beats being trapped in that godforsaken cave.
