Rain's house in the Water Guardian world was a spectacle of elegance and fluidity. As Furie and Leaf approached the entrance, the structure seemed to blend seamlessly with the surrounding water environment. The house itself was spacious and seemed to incorporate the essence of both water and air magic. Rain's love for the air magic was so visible, it was almost a torture to know he was not able to control that element yet.
As Rain opened the door, a warm smile adorned his face. His eyes lit up with joy, and a hint of shyness reflected in his demeanor. "Hey, Furie, Leaf! Glad you could make it!" Rain greeted them, gesturing for them to enter. The moment Furie stepped inside, she was greeted by a harmonious combination of water and air magic. The walls seemed to shimmer with an aquatic glow, and the air carried a refreshing breeze that whispered tales of the Water Guardian world. Rain led them through the expansive corridors and halls of his home. "Come on, Ash and Zephyr are already in the living room. I've got some surprises for you guys," Rain announced, guiding them through the enchanting surroundings.
The walk to the living room was a journey through a world of water and air-infused artistry. The furniture seemed to ripple with liquid grace, and the decorations danced with currents of magic. Furie couldn't help but marvel at the intricate details that showcased the beauty of the Guardian's magic.
The living room itself was a spacious haven, adorned with mesmerizing water and air elements. It was a testament to Rain's affinity with the water element and love for the air one, creating an atmosphere that felt both calming and invigorating. As Furie and Leaf settled in, they both saluted Zephyr and Ash who were already seated in the living room. The atmosphere was so lively. Ash, with a wide grin on his face, gave them an enthusiastic wave while placing his glass on a nearby table. The scene was a bit surprising for Furie, who had expected Guardians to be immersed in their duties. They were always talking about guarding, protecting, and duty. However, she couldn't help but feel a sense of joy seeing her friends taking a break and enjoying themselves.
Before Furie could fully absorb the lively atmosphere, Zephyr, who was seated next to Ash, sprang up from her seat with a beaming smile. She quickly made her way towards Furie and Leaf. "Hey there! Long time no see!" Zephyr exclaimed, embracing Furie in a friendly hug before turning to Leaf for a quick nod of acknowledgment. Zephyr then took Furie by the arm, her excitement evident in every step. "Come with me! I know just the place to get a drink for you," Zephyr declared, leading Furie towards what seemed to be the kitchen area.
The kitchen was a blend of water and air magic, just like the rest of Rain's house. The countertops glistened with a subtle aquatic sheen, and the air carried a light, refreshing breeze. Zephyr skillfully navigated through the space, reaching a section where a variety of drinks were laid out. "Here we go!" Zephyr exclaimed, presenting Furie with an array of beverages. "We've got some watermelon-infused nectar, a sparkling lavender concoction, and a classic ambrosia punch. Take your pick!" Furie smiled at the vibrant options before her. The enchanting atmosphere of Rain's house, coupled with the warm company of her friends, made the experience even more delightful. As Furie chose her drink, she couldn't help but appreciate the moments of camaraderie.
Furie took a sip of her drink and thanked the air guardian. The two women engaged in a friendly conversation. Zephyr, with her usual bubbly demeanor, couldn't wait to catch up with Furie. "Hey Furie! It's been a while. How's everything going?" Zephyr inquired, a genuine curiosity sparkling in her eyes. Furie grinned in response. "Oh, you know, Guardian stuff and trying not to set the forest on fire during training," she replied with a playful tone.
Zephyr chuckled. "Sounds like the usual Guardian routine. How's Leaf handling his duties? Last time we hung out, he seemed a bit preoccupied." Furie's expression softened. "He's been through a lot, especially with those shadow creatures attacking. But he's strong, and we'll figure things out." Zephyr nodded understandingly. "Glad to hear you two have each other's backs. It's essential in our world."
As they continued chatting, Zephyr's curiosity led her to another topic. "So, any exciting news or gossip? You know, the Guardian grapevine is always buzzing." Furie raised an eyebrow, thinking for a moment. "Well, there's this interesting development with Queen Guaya. She messaged both Blaze and me, talking about peace and forgiveness. It's a bit unexpected, to be honest." Zephyr's eyes widened in surprise. "Guaya reaching out for peace? That's a twist. What did you say?" Furie shrugged, a hint of uncertainty in her expression. "Haven't replied yet. It's a lot to process. Blaze is in the same boat; we're trying to figure out what this means."
Zephyr leaned in, her curiosity piqued. "You'll keep me posted, right? I'm invested in your drama now." Furie chuckled. "Of course, Zephyr. You'll be the first to know about any Guardian soap opera developments. Anything juicy on your end?" Zephyr smirked. "Oh, you know, the usual elemental shenanigans. Ash accidentally set a few things on fire before you arrived here. It's a good thing we're surrounded by water here!" Furie was surprised, "Do you know why?" Zephyr tried to talk a bit quietly when she informed Furie of Ash drinking a little bit too much tonight and how he might be going through a breakup.
Right away, Furie felt bad for Ash and wanted to go comfort him. Zephyr slowly stopped her, "Give him time, Furie. I don't know if he really wants to talk about it. I think that right now, he just needs his friends to distract him." Furie understood and agreed with Zephyr, before going into the living room with her delicious drink in her hands. She did not hesitate a second and went to sit next to Ash.
The Fire Guardian gave Furie a beautiful smile before lifting his glass and clinking it against Furie's. Furie softly smiled at her friend and took a sip of her drink after that awkward cheer.
