Not far off from the campus is a really big crater. No one is sure exactly what caused such a big crater, but whatever it was clearly didn't like the ground very much. Or had a bad cold.
The Really Big Crater (for lack of any better name, honestly), is ... well, a crater. It's about a quarter kilometer in diameter, with sharply sloped walls that are about twenty feet high. There is no vegetation that can survive in the nutritionally-deprived soil down there, so the floor of the crater is dry, desolate, and flat. Save for a few rocks and boulders, it's about as flat as the ground can get.
Which makes it ideal as a battleground, if you're in the mood to get into a fight that probably shouldn't be seen inside the campus.

Talon quietly sat apon a large boulder at the bottum of the crater, eyes looking around quietly. He had tried to meditate at the school, but all the kids kinda made that a problem. He had been out here for a while, quietly meditating by himself. Finally, he had stopped when he realised the time. The sun was already almost down, which meant he had been out for at least a couple hours.
"Where did the time go?"

Naota was standing at the top edge of the crater, just staring at the setting sun. His back was to Talon, so he was like a silhouette against the light, his firey red hair seeming to blend in with it slightly. Otherwise, his strong frame was draped in a cloak that fell to his ankles, the hood currently down as he simply stared blankly ahead. It was probably kind of odd that he wasn't going blind as he did so. He remained perfectly still, just the wind rustling his clothing and hair as it blew lightly past him.

Moving softly against the solid ground, Talon stood from the boulder and brushed himself off. He knocked thedust from his clothes quickly and began to walk. His assets appeared avaerage; white sneakers, red ufos and a white hoodie over a red shirt. As the sky changed colors, Talon's vision was caught on a tall figure that stood above the crater. Continuing on with his walk, he examined the male.
"Who is he ...."
With a quick breath, he began to glow a soft red aura. Sprinting forward, he moved so his feet present against the crater's wall. The aura, connecting the dirt in the wall and his feet, aided him as he quickly walked up at the unusual angle. Moments later, reaching the top of the large hole planted in the earth, Talon moved in the direction of the man.
"Excuse me, are you lost?" he asked, thinking of how he had gotten lost himself only days earlier.

Nao turned, blinking bright orange eyes, the same as his hair, at the male before him. He hesitated, and then shrugged his shoulders. "Is... Ria High School nearby?" he asked. "I think that's where.. I'm headed." He sounded slightly uncertain at first, but then it faded into an undeniable confidence, even though he really was quite unsure of himself at the moment.
He turned to face Talon now, staring at him with that same blank expression, the trace of a frown tugging at his lips as well. In the corners, fangs could barely be made out, even with his mouth closed. Under the cloak, he was wearing a long black coat with red trim, left open to show he was wearing no shirt. He simply had some bandages wrapped around his chest. His pants were somewhat loose, black as well, and he wore a simple pair of black boots. There was a red marking on his left cheek, and matching ones on his wrists.
He just watched Talon silently, waiting for a reply.

Talon listened to the man quietly. Peering over his figure carefully, he did like what he saw. The man had a nice body, to say the least. His different tatoos caught his soft blue eyes first. They seemed old, not any normal symbols he had seen before. Though suddenly, his attetion was set at the bandages across his chest. Had he been injured? What if he was in pain?
Pushing his thoughts to the side, he quietly answered the man, "Yeah, it's a little beyond the crater. Want me to show you?""
Talon then closed his eyes, and began to concentraite. He hadn't seen this guy's aura at all yet, which was very unusual to him. Seeing auras, was like breathing to Talon, a daily thing he just always did. With a sudden jump, and a pinch of concentration, his aura suddenly errupted. His aura though, was definitly not normal.
It was powerful, beyond what he had imagined it to be. It radiated over him, the aura taking the form of a powerful fire surronding the man. It gave off an intense warm feeling, hiding all emotions the man felt. talon's eyes winced softly until the aura finally died down, closing from the reader's mind.

Nao stared at him for a moment longer, as if weighing his options in his mind, and then slowly nodded his head. "Yes, that would be helpful," he replied simply, and then took a couple steps towards him, leaving just a one foot, maybe two, gap between them.
Staring down at the shorter male, his expression remained blank, and then suddenly shifted into a smirk, as if he'd realized something funny. He extended one slightly tanned hand when he saw the guy wince, and just lightly brushed it atop his head, as if playing with Talon's spiky hair. And then his hand withdrew just as abruptly, and he looked back at the sun, smirk faded.
"Lead the way."

The moved softly and with grace as he rubbed Talon's head. It felt nice to have someone rub his head, almost comforting. Then he realised, whow as this guy? Whent he hand moved his hand away, Talon scratched the back of his head. When he said "lead the way", He turned and began walking towards the school.
The wind moved gently around them as they walked around the crater. Talon walked in silence, his head to the sky. The sun had finally set by now leaving them in pure darkness. The moon sat full in the sky, leaving a twilight glow over them.
"So ... what's your name?"

Naota followed silently along with him, the cloak tucked around and fastened somehow at the base of his neck. The hood was still down, unneeded, as he trailed along in complete silence. Even the thump of his boots against the ground could barely be heard.
When the male spoke, he paused and then decided to reply. "Naota," he replied simply, fixing him with a stare. His expression was blank, unreadable. "Though you can call me Nao, if you wish. And yours is?"
[I just realized he doesn't have a last name. xD;; -looks one up-]

Talon stared back as Nao told him his name. It was nice, short and simple and definitly easy to remember. As he was stared apon, Talon tried to force his own stare apon the man. His though, shows his emotions, his intrest and forceful feelings, trying to keep the stare stablizied. Finally though, he cracked and let out a small chuckle.
"I'm Talon, nice to meet you"
He continued to walk across the dark ground. His vision was clear though in the dark, he could see perfectly. Looking upward, clouds roamed over the moon, blacking out the soft light it radiated. A small rumble came fromt he clouds as the two set closer to the school, almost at the courtyard entrance.
"Let's Hurry, I storms comming"
[[Aww, poor guy, no last name Dx]]

"Talon," he repeated to himself, and then gave a short nod of his head, as if approving the name. Nao just continued following him, a small smile tugging at his lips when the male chuckled. He wasn't sure why he'd laughed, nor why he was nearly smiling, but he supposed it didn't matter.
He glanced up at the sky when Talon next spoke, and nodded once again. "Yes... If we don't make it, you can borrow my cloak," he said simply.
[I guess that makes sense though. But I'll make him one anyway. >>]

Talon looked towards Nao, a soft smile hung up by his lips, "Thanks, this storm seems really out of nowh-"
He felt uneasy for a minute and his eyes began to shake. Shutting them quickly, they began to softly burn, forcing him to open them. His once golden eyes had been wiped away, leaving a soft white left in their place. It was a vision, his second gift being a seer of some sorts.
.............................................Five Children
A Plan For Snow........................................................................................................
.....................Weather Benders and Ice Manipulators
The Storm..........................................................................
.....Beasts
Talon shook his head an looked at Nao, almost in panic. He looked up at the sky quickly as the rumbling raged through the sky again. Suddenly, a large number of soft and ear pericing howls errupted from the forest and mountains.
"We've got to go, were not gonna be out here much longer!"
[[I decided, to make a Blizzard Event, before the valentines day one xD]]

Nao stopped abruptly when Talon closed his eyes, and then slowly inched towards the male. "Hey, what's...?" he began, but stopped as he saw his eyes were no longer gold, but instead just blankly white. He stared in shock, the most emotion she'd shown so far. He was definitely confused, and simply watched motionlessly until Talon snapped out of it.
But now the male seemed to be in a panic, and Nao had to take a deep, silent breath to keep himself calm as well. "What the hell are you talking about?" he asked, glancing up at the sky when he heard the thunder. Or, he thought it was thunder. What else could it possibly be?
And then his head turned back towards the woods when he heard the numerous howling. "What's... going on?" he asked, mostly to himself, as he stared blankly towards the forest, and finally back ot Talon.
[how fun. xD -has several ice manipulators-]

"A big storm, we so don't wanna be outside for!"
Talon grabbed onto Nao's hand an tugged at him quickly. This storm was not gonna be a safe one and he didn't wanna be outside when it started. As he tugged against his new "friend", the wind whipped apon him. A feirce and painful chilla gainst it as he scratched apon his face. The snow began to release from the skies, softly at first until another roar came. It soon began to shoot down like a ragging blizzard.
"We've gotta go!"

Nao blinked, and glanced to their hands for a moment before he started moving along with Talon. But he soon felt the wind pick up as well, the cold stinging his face and bare chest. But despite this, he tugged off his cloak, and placed it lightly around Talon. "No protesting," he said firmly.
He was still wearing his jacket, though it was left open and he wasn't wearing a shirt... However, soon a light warmth began radiating from him. He was a fire demon, after all. He wasn't going to let snow bother him.
So he started walking again, holding Talon's hand once more. "Does it usually snow here?" he asked with a frown.
