Elemental brothers oneshot story

Thorn's disappearance

"Do you think we can plant these in the garden?" Thorn asked curiously, tilting his head as he inspected an odd looking seed he found on the ground.

It was shaped like a tear drop, with faint golden veins running along its surface, Solar give a quick glanced at him, huff softly before looking away.

"Judging by the environment around us, they might grow" he said, scanning the scenery.

The place was almost like Earth, same soft breeze, same rustle of leaves, just with a few plants that looked... off in shape and color.

Like they had been designed by someone who couldn't decide between flowers and sea creatures.

"Really?" Thorn gasped, his eyes lighting up with excitement, Solar sweatdropped at his expression but nodded anyway.

"Yes Thorn, they might grow"

"Yippie!" Thorn cheered, crouching down to gather as many as he could before tucking them carefully into his bag like precious treasure.

Solar shook his head with a faint smile before glancing around at his other brothers. Gempa stood off to the side, absorbed in his tablet as his eyes darted through a map of their surroundings.

Halilintar was next to him, arms folded and watching the area with the kind of quiet attention that made people think twice before approaching.

Taufan on the other hand had gotten distracted by a strange flower that seemed to shimmer in the sunlight, while Ice snoozed comfortably on his back, completely unfazed by the world.

And Blaze? Well... Blaze was busy waging war with a stubborn plant, yanking at it with all his strength. The plant clearly unimpressed, refused to budge.

"Alright everyone, let's head back" Gempa called, clapping his hands together after slipping his tablet into his bag.

Taufan nodded and headed over immediately, careful not to jolted their sleeping brother.

Blaze gave the plant one last desperate tug before letting out a frustrated groan. He kicked it, muttered something under his breath, and finally trudged after the others.

Solar trailed behind them, the corners of his mouth twitching as he tried not to laugh at Blaze's antic.

Thorn started walking too, but paused when something caught his eye.

"Azey" he called out, catching Blaze's attention.

"Yeah?" Blaze raised a brow, but his expression shifted to surprise when Thorn gently took his hand, fingertips glowing with soft green light.

"Eh?! Thorn I am fine!" Blaze began, but stopped when he saw the small cut on his hand fade into nothing.

"No injuries on my watch!" Thorn declared proudly.

Blaze couldn't help but chuckle, reaching down to ruffle his little brother's hair so aggressively that Thorn's head bobbed.

"Ey!" Thorn squeaked, swatting at his hand as Blaze grinned, cupping Thorn's cheeks.

"Don't do that!" Blaze said with a chuckle, Thorn puffed his cheeks in return.

"Why not~?"

"It's not a serious injury!" Blaze insisted, still holding his cheeks hostage.

"Still a wound!" Thorn shot back.

"You are too soft" Blaze smirked, finally letting go.

"Better soft than careless" Thorn retorted, narrowing his eyes playfully.
