"The weather's too damn hot." groaned Ryan.
"And humid." whined Chloe.
"You can control water!" snapped Ryan.
"Try to control your mouth!" snapped Chloe.
I sighed and kept walking. Rio was wonderful. The people were nice and festive, the weather was beautiful and the sights were amazing. Too bad the others didn't really like it.
"Who do you need to see here Noah?" asked Jason.
"Just someone who might help us with our mission." I said. "We don't know anything about the Amazon forest, we need to know a bit more if we're going to plunge in a forest full of dangers."
"This better work..." growled Jake. "'Cause if you're just here to meet some pen-pal I'm going to lose it."
"Since you could have just stayed at the airport and waited!" snapped Ryan.
"You don't need to defend me Ryan."
"Quite the contrary." He grinned. I rolled my eyes.
"Can we please hurry up? Or should I set up a nice candle light dinner date for you two?" snapped Jake.
"Sure why not? Then you can add two more chairs for you and Elli." growled Ryan.
"Better hope I never find my powers Carter. Because if I did I would have kicked your arse."
"I could beat you in a fight without powers Avalion!" shot Ryan.
"I doubt it!"
Chloe groaned as the boys kept bickering and ran up to me.
"Damn, those two make you and Ryan look like lovers." I joked.
"Yeah. But we all know the two lovers in this group are you and Ryan."
"Ahahaha. Drop it already." I rolled my eyes.
We kept walking for twenty more minutes and finally reached our destination. An ice-cream shop.
"That's it. She finally lost it." groaned Charlie.
"I don't mind having a cone though." pipped Elli.
"Yeah! Rocky road!" cheered Jason and Jake.
"Come on, everyone knows that the best ice cream is mint-chocolate." said Ryan.
"Have you been living under a rock?" huffed Jake.
"No but apparently you have if you love Rocky Road so much." snapped Ryan.
"I have taste." snapped Jake. "Mint-chocolate is like mixing toothpaste with chocolate chips."
Chloe rubbed her temples as the boys kept bickering over ice-cream. I chuckled and walked inside, the others following me. We all sighed in pleasure as a blast of cold air hit our face. The air condition was cranked up to the max. The smell of sweet sugar and chocolate reached my nose. I shook my head. Focus.
"Jason you speak Spanish right?" I asked.
He nodded. "I thought people spoke Portuguese here."
"Yeah but my friend told me they understand Spanish here. And besides...no one here speaks Portuguese right? We can improvise with Spanish."
I asked him to translate for me.
"Hola ¿sabes donde puedo encontrar a Isabella Jose?"
The woman at the counter looked at us.
"En la parte trasera. ¿Quieres que la llame?"
At the back. Do you want me to call her?
