Third Person P.O.V.
After the 'incident' in the hot springs, Dante had spent more time with Ember,since they stayed in the hot-springs for a few days. The day before Dante had to return to his training he, Ember and Adrian went on a picnic.

Dante's P.O.V.
"How much father do we have to walk Adrian?" I groaned, stuffing some chewing gum in my pocket as we continued walking. "Come on Dante, we've only gone about 15miles away from the hot-springs." he said grinning, "Don't tell me your tired already?" his facial expression turning into a cocky smirk. "I'm not tired, I just don't think it's necessary to go so far away for a picnic." I said blandly. "Now,now you don't want anyone seeing you and Ember kissing do you?" I looked back and saw Ember blushing a deep shade of red, "Adrian, shut up." I said my eyes drifting to Ember who was still blushing. Adrian stuck out his tongue at me. "Where here!" he exclaimed, his voice full of enthusiasm, I looked around, not at all surprised by what i saw, it was your regular picnic scene, a bench, a few trees and then if you looked a bit further a bit of open space. "I walked over to Ember, "Don't mind Adrian, he can be a bit....annoying." I made sure to choose my words carefully because Adrian had sharp hearing. "I realized." Ember said dryly. Ember bent over and began too lay out the things for the picnic. I saw pork,chicken,coleslaw,salad,fruit juice,rice. The list go on and on. Ember looked at me and giggled, it was then i realized i was drooling. "Did you cook all of these?" i asked. "Yes, yes i did." Ember said smiling. I looked across the field and i thought to myself, this is gonna be fun, but then i realized something. "Hey Ember, where's Adrian?" "No idea, but he's a top level assassin, nothing can kill him." "That's true." I agreed. "Let's EAT!" Ember exclaimed with a ferocious look in her eyes. "I bet i can finish my plate of food before you can!" I decleared. "Oh it's on pervert." She said sticking her tongue out at me. 10minutes later we were both sprawled out rubbing our swolen stomachs. "I think i ate too much pork." Ember said weakly. "Same here." I groaned. Adrian then appeared out of the bushes. "OI YOU GUYS STARTED WITHOHT ME!" He shouted. "Well you took forever." I said, gathering the energy I needed too sit up. "Nature called me okay." He mumbled under his breath, "You were gone for half an hour...." Ember groaned. After Adrian finished eating Ember and I took a walk together down the forest trail. "This is a cool place." Ember said her eyes darting from place to place. "I guess." I responded. Suddenly I heard a rustling in the bushes. Due to our training we instinctively got into battle stance. I kept my eyes focused on the bush and then out appeared a creature that I've never seen before, it was like a lion except WAY bigger than a normal one and completely red, like blood red. I jumped upwards, readying my fist to attack, but as i brought my hand down the lion swatted me away and sent me flying into a tree. "Ouch" I said getting up. But then i saw Ember fighting that lion, she was ducking and dodging and landing some punches and kicks. 'Wow, she must've had some harsh training.' I thought to myself. I ran back in to join the fight, i dodged a swipe aimed at my head and countered with a kick which shoul've shattered his leg. But he only flinched at charged at me "DANTE!" I hear Ember scream. I froze, the lion was closing in on me and then I decided to test something, I side stepped his charge, then I jumped into the air and whispered "Binder." Immediately the lion was engulfed in darkness and he exploded. I dropped down onto the ground and looked at the mess I had just created. "Good job Dante," I turned around to see Adrian stepping out of the shadows. "You were hear all this time and didn't bother to help us, you terrible man." Ember said, looking very annoying with Adrian. "I thought the couple could use their special powers of love and overcome this challenge." Adrian said smirking at me. Immediately i began chasing Adrian with a stick, "STOP SAYING THESE THINGS YOU OLD PERVERT!" Adrian looked back at me "Hush child, that's how rumors are started." "IT CAN'T BE A RUMOR WHEN IT'S TRUE!" Ember was rolling on the ground laughing at our rediculous antics.

Adrian's P.O.V.
After walking back to our room at the hot-springs, Dante said good-bye to Ember, and gave her a hug, I might add, Ember blushed and said they should see each other in a few months. 'They're totally gonna be couple' I thought to myself my eyes drifting to Dante as we walked towards the east. "Are you ready for even more intense training tomorrow Dante?" I asked. "Of course, after all I still need to get stronger." "I see you took my advice and tried using binder." "Yep, even though I still need to figure out what it is." Dante said, his eyebrows furrowed. After a while, I grabbed Dante and teleported back to the cave. Dante took a bath and went to sleep. I just layed down on the rocks, thinking about how much fun I was having training this kid. "I guess I could tell him what binder is and why he can use it tomorrow..."
