Saffron jumped, going about 7 feet in the air and then stopped. He solidified the air below him and was standing there, drawing looks and applause from nearby. "Thank you. Thank you. I'd love to hang around and entertain you all, but I have somewhere to be. Time to get it started!"
With that, he gave a bow and took off running in the air towards his destination. As he ran he scanned the crowd for signs of the two people he was going to be leading. "Ahah! There they are! Time to make a good impression. Ok gotta get myself hyped, okay... one, two... one, two... woo! Alright!I look good, I feel good, let's kick some ass!"
Saffron released the air and plummeted straight down, aiming for a clear spot near the white haired sheep girl and the deer child. He gave himself a slight burst of air to slow himself down just before landing, stopped in front of him and announced "I. AM. HERE. What are your other two wishes?"
After receiving the envelope from Headmaster Pine, she was excited as she was dressed in her black combat uniform. Skyler was happy to leave her ever happy mother and bashful father to their own devices as she ran through the streets of Vale and heading over to the Dusk to Dust shop, to meet her team. The shop was not that far from the house her mother picked out when they moved to Vale, which was great. Enjoying the light jog as the tail end of her coat fly as she made her way through the streets. As she came close to the shop, where her team members were waiting along with what looks like another group, she heard a familiar voice call out to them from above.
"I. Am. Here. What are your other two wishes" said an ever familiar shirtless blond as he dropped from the sky.
Skyler, falling into the old habit, rolled her eyes at the sight of her old friend and sarcastically said, "I wish you'd shut up once in a while." As she stood beside Saffron she finally allowed the presence of her best friend from Mistral sinks in. "SAFFRON!?" she exclaimed, "What are you doing here?" She was shocked and happy to see him since the last few months have been boring with out him, but she would lie to him about it. "Did you just follow me here?" she continued, placing her hands on her waist and giving him a demanding look.
Saffron turned as he heard a familiar voice behind him wishing he would shut up. "Be still my heart! Could that possibly an angel I hear?" He shaded his eyes, entirely unnecessarily, and then pouted. "Nope, just Skyler." He gave his classic half smile before continuing. "No, I didn't follow you. It's good to see you though Sky. You're as radiant as ever I see"
"And you are as over the top as always," she flashed him a crooked smile as she walked over to her cousin. "Sage, how has my lovely little cousin been!" she pulled Sage into a large hug, completely interrupting whatever he was doing with the white haired young man, "Ah... I will get to protect you now~ I can't let my cute cousin get hurt!?" Every time she was around her cousin, she always allowed her wall to fall, allowing her to show him her true love. "You must be the team leader, My name is Skyler Eden Sharp at your service. I will be apart of your team from now on," she let Sage go as she walked over to the Sheep Faunus, her wall back up as her smile was gone and her RBF was back on.
Saffron pouted as the attention was taken from him. "You used to think it was cute Sky" he muttered. "WAIT WAIT WAIT," he said, turning to the sheep girl. "You're the leader? I could have sworn whats-his-face said it was my team...this day just keeps getting worse." He took a good look at his new leader and his familiar grin came back. "Then again....I do like a woman that knows how to take charge." He took her hand and kissed it royalty style. "My name is Saffron Auran Zephyr-Valkyrie and I am delighted to be of service. The pleasure, I assure you is all mine."
Skyler rolled her eyes at the thought that Saffron would have been the leader of any team really, "Saf, you can barely hold on to a plan..." When Saffron took the girl's hand, she couldn't help the small pain in her heart of him doing such a thing to another woman beside her. Nope! I am not jealous, I am just... shocked! Right, just shocked! she thought to herself before she pulled him away from the Faunus. "That's enough, Saf... No need to scared her away when we will be together for the next four years..."
"ow.ow.ow.ow. Those are my EARS Sky!" he whined as she pulled him away by the feathered tips. "There's nothing scary about me....besides how good I look." He said when she let go, rubbing them. "I'm just trying to be polite," he said with a pout.
"Maybe politeness isn't your thing..." Sky gave him a look and helped soothe his ear as a way to apologize, "Maybe stick to no touching."
He turned and pulled her close, his eyes softening and genuine smile on his face. "So tell me, does that apply to you too? And does "no touching" only go one way....Miella?" He whispered the last word, using the name he had given her a year and a half ago, denoting her as his best friend. He didn't know what she wanted the others to know of them prior to here, so he treated her just as he did their new leader: a piece of meat, here for his entertainment. His hope was that using that name would let her know he didn't think that was all she was.
Skyler kept her face straight as she allowed him to pull into him as she told him, "If you do it too much maybe I will be off limits as well... Miellie..." Her eyes were the only things that slipped her control as they soften a bit. The day he taught her that phrase came into her mind as she took in his warmth. Finally snapping out of it, she pulled away from him and turned to their leader, "Well, what's the mission? The Headmaster didn't tell us more than where to go."
