Atasei's legs heated up after chasing Naoharu for three minutes. As he led her to the woods, he purposely ran slower. Atasei took the opportunity to hunt him down.
He stumbled to the dirt when she'd caught him to the ground, rolling off five feet away. When she was tired she repeatedly inhaled and exhaled, trying to receive all the air she could get after that huge attempt of tackling him. "You're not the worst." He brushed his track pants from the chalky dirt, Atasei still continued to breathe and she laid flat on the ground in the position where kids would do the snow angel. "You're..." She kept speaking in between large breaths. "Not." Her stomach expanded and contracted. "Bad either."
When she was ready to stand up again, he caught up next to her.
"What's your superpower?" Atasei asked. Naoharu chuckled, "You sound ignorant." He placed his hand on her shoulder, "My ability is Telepathy/Future. I'm still working on it, though. I couldn't really read why Likaera smiled." He blushed and added, "But I do know why, now, though."
"Can you read my ability?" Atasei leaned closer to him and her eyes stared at his overly freaked out face. He stepped back and snickered. "Your ability is stupidity. You look cute using it, though." He turned around and sat at the end of the mountain, staring at the beautiful, shining moon.
Atasei sat beside him. "I'm serious, though! I wanna know!" His head tilted, "I actually don't know. Maybe my ability messed up. I could read everyone's ability except yours," He grabbed a twig and fidgeted. "This was one of the things Queen Likaera told me. That she couldn't read your ability. She knew you weren't a normal human, though." He threw the twig off the mountain and stated, "She isn't exactly the BEST at determining abilities. She told me to come with you to Master Shuu to determine your ability at school."
Naoharu's pupils dilated, just staring at the engaging, glimmering moon that made sparkles on the water beneath the mountain the two were sitting on. "You know, the moon is just as useful and pretty as the sun," Naoharu he turned to Atasei, "Why couldn't-" He stopped speaking when he'd seen her eyes just dim away into slumber. His face beamed seeing her fall asleep at this nighttime. He didn't mind that she probably didn't listen to him 10 seconds ago and actually looked happier before. "Goodnight, Pawn." He mumbled.
