((Cam and I don't mind if anyone else wants to join in! ^_^
On a personal note from me: sorry I've been absent for a few weeks, and especially sorry to those I was rping with. This past month my life has demanded much of me, including: gone to the car garage three times and paid $260 to get my car registered, been to the hospital twice for a head thingy, gone to the dentist twice and still have one more trip next month... plus I'm moving out of my house I've been in for three years to move in with my mom. -_- Ugh, what a stressful time it's been... well things are looking like they're calming down now, at least! ))
His pristine white fur was damp and smudged with dirt. His long pale blue wings dragged behind him in the dirt. A very special necklace had been yanked off by reaching branches and he now carried it in his mouth, too tired to stop and put it on properly again.
Denali finally pulled himself free of the wet, tangling vines and scratching branches, and flopped onto the soft grass of the Valley floor. Panting, he rolled over onto his back and stuck all four legs in the air, letting the warm sun strike his aching limbs.
"Baaaah," Denali groused out loud. "Bah I say!"

Cheyenne smiled as she came into the soft sunlight. Her wings fluttered gently as she paded slowly towards the white mass that was flopped out in the open.
Her dainty paws arched so she stood on her nimble toes as she dipped her head in close to his.
"Hiya!" She screeched atempting to catch him off gaurd, "Whatcha up to?" She wondered aloud as she lifted her tender paw and poked his damp fur.

Denali had his eyes half closed, soaking up the warm rays of the sun. Quite an improvement over his slog through the wet forest a moment before!
Well, maybe. After jumping about a foot in the air and flipping over and landing on his face, the woods was looking better and better.
"AHH--oof!"
The Pykiin groaned and sat up slowly, rubbing his head. He looked around to see who had surprised him, though he had a sneaking suspicion of who it was.
His guess was confirmed. There she stood in front of him, looking very pleased with herself. "'Ey Cheyenne," he grumbled.

She shook her dark pink mane, "Hey." She smiled. "Did one fall into a lake or have you cried that much because I beat you?" She teased as her smile grew. She winked and planted her tail end on the ground next to where he lay.
Still curious she waited for him to explain. Come on spill. Her eyes seemed to ask the question.

Denali snorted and stuck his nose in the air. "You'll never beat me!" he told her. It didn't really matter what the two of them were talking about, they always competed in everything, since childhood.
"I was," he said slowly, climbing to his feet, "just looking for something. Something special. Nothing for yoooou to worry about." He looked down at himself, all covered in dirt and smudged with water, but just shrugged. Not like he had to look good for anyone, it was just Cheyenne!
"But I didn't find it," he finished, shrugging again and putting his arrowhead necklace back over his neck.

She wasn't bothered by his resenting statement about her never wining, but didn't acknowledge it either. Their on going competition was a constant in her life and if it wasn’t her winning in a flying race it was him winning hide and seek or some silly childish game.
Denali was going to think what ever his mind wanted him to.
"Really?" She squeaked her mind still whirling with questions, "Like treasure? Or...?" She trailed off questioningly.
She shook her head admissibly trying to come up with another question, but failed miserably and instead waited for his response.

Denali grinned. He liked that he knew something she didn't, and that she wanted to know but he wouldn't tell her. Ha ha, that was the ultimate win!
"I'll tell ya.... someday!" He smirked and fluffed up his soggy tail. "So, uh, how'd'ya like being grown up? It takes a little getting used to, huh?" He looked down at his own newly-big body. Part of the reason he'd been so tangled up in the forest was because he no longer fit in places that used to be easy to squeeze into.
"What're you gonna do now that you're all grown up?" he demanded suddenly.

“You’re not going to tell me?” She whined like a little child almost forgetting that she was grown until Denali reminded her that she was bigger.
Chey rubbed her paw, it was so much bigger than just a little while ago. “Uh, well I don’t really know. Yeah it does take a little while.” She stated nonchalantly, “You have any big plans?”
Her bright wings fluttered and caught the sun light causing a gleam to flicker around her.

"Yes!" Denali immediately replied, wanting to make sure he beat her in the 'having-plans-now-that-we're-grown-up' competation. "I am going to get a soul mate and a bonded and become an elemental! Ha! How's that for plans?" he puffed out his chest.

"Pretty manly..." She said as she poked his chest and giggled, "I guess." She smiled before she lifted herself off the ground and flicked her tail.
She squinted at the sun and cocked her head pensively. "Any thoughs on how you are going to do what you plan?"

Denli immediately spread out his wings as she did, because if she was in the air, he wanted to be too. His wings ached a bit from being dragged through the brush, but it wasn't too much. With one faulter he was hovering next to her.
"I, uh..." He tipped his head and blinked. "Well I guess I never thought about exactly how, yet. But I will! I just turned into an adult so I don't have it all planned out yet!"
He thought for a moment. "I guess I want a Bonded first. I want a Remiel! They're cool!" He grinned. "Do you have one you like?"
Suddenly he gasped and shot up higher into the air. "OH!"

Cheyenne smirked. It appeared as though she couldn't even be in the air without him turning it into some sort of rivalry.
Gently she beat her fairy wings so she was floating next to him, “Well I urm…” She said not really sure of her decision, “I think I’d want a Vhimir.” She nodded to assure her self that was what she really wanted. “I wouldn’t want to have to carry my bonded when I feel like flying.”
“Have you figured out an element mister Ihaveeverythingplannedout?” She asked wondering just exactly what he wished to control.

Denali was distracted by something he just figured out, so he didn't answer right away. After a moment he said, "Huh? Oh, uh, no I haven't yet but I am gonna think about it and I think I like Air and hey you just gave me an idea! Come on!" He flapped his wings and wheeled around, heading over the forest trees.

"Air um, oh!" She exclaimed as he suddenly took off, "Him and his ideas." She mumbled under her breath as she glided up next to him making sure she was at least a hair infrom of him.

Denali stuck his tongue out a little as Cheyenne started to pass him, but didn't try to overtake her and come out in front, for once. He was scanning the trees that were passing by below them.
"I didn't think of doing it this way until I saw you!" he grinned at her. "This is much better. Don't have to get all wet and dirty while I search!"
