As Ash watched while pulling the other two away, he saw his homeland get destroyed as waves of water crashed over the rocky hills, surging across the land. Clearly, all the Solarflares felt the temperature drop and they looked out of their caves before retreating quickly and blocking the entryway.
Three blue-green blurs flashed through the air, spiralling and joining Ash's side.
"SERIOUSLY? DID YOU HAVE TO?"
"Is it my fault that YOUR TRIBE are being obnoxious poopholes?"Snapped Coral irately. She looked like a bear who had just been poked awake while hibernating.
Winter flicked his tail at Ash's nose," Lead the way. I'm not staying here for another minute."
"Solarflares coming!" Yelped the Earthbound struggling to keep up with Amber who was literally speeding through the air.
Ash whipped around and hissed at the Solarflares with a sign to negotiate, he had to trick the guards.
Motioning to Amber to keep flying out of the Fire Kingdom, he bobbed closer to the guards, hoping that they would fall for his lies. "What are you and Amber doing?" One demanded.
"We'll kill them for you. They trust us." Muttered Ash, his heart hammering rapidly.
"And run free? Not a chance."
"We'll report back in a week."
"You better." Growled the other, motioning to dismiss the army. "Or we will find and kill you and Amber."

The three Hydroblasts, two Solarflares, Shadowground and Earthbound landed on the earth, right outside the small hideout on one of the islands surrounding the mainland. It was nowhere close to the old place, it was more fit for hiding and not style, vines were covering the entrance. Winter stuck his head through the vines before yelping loudly.
Retracting back, he grumbled, "Air-Enders. Damn."
"SKYYYYYYY." Ash yelled. "RISE AND SHINE!"
Coral was staring at the tree bordering the land with the first amused expression on her face Ash had seen in a long time.
Everyone else noticed that both were sitting innocently in the trees and watching them. Marsh even had a rabbit in his claws. "Welcome home, guys." Marsh said cheerfully. "Who are you by the way?" He asked Amber, who just grimaced.
"My friend." Ash said firmly, trying not to look at Sky, whose eyes were boring into his soul.
As Marsh let the other in, his eyes raked Coral's. He'd seen those eyes before.
Before he knew it, his mind had taken over and dragged him back to his old days, six years ago...
