Jyo made sure he had everything packed for the wekend in his bag. He didn't need too much but he didn't want to use alot of magic improvments. he wanted himself and Ziare to have a traditional campout together.
His father had set up the portal for them to take them to the base of the small mountain they wuld go up. He would aslo be able to introduce Zaire to his parents now.
"Interesting. You were right when you say humans aren't all bad. Someone as bad as I thought couldn't feel this way about another person as you do for her." Said Ember in his head.
"Hey there. Already speaking with me again. Very good. Yeah you'll actually get to come on out and meet her once we are out of the academy. I'm still not comfortable about having you come out here so soon after i was sent after you. Mabey in a wekk or two. Thats the other reason I want to do this. Is to let you go somewhere." He told Ember as he picked his bag up and headed to Ziare's room. He and Ember had come to the agreement that if Ziare would be such a large part of his life then She and Ember would have to meet.
He also knew this would be a very good chance for it to be just Ziare and Jyo as Ember WOULD be around but being out of Jyo they could have some time apart though niether of them minded this position.
Jyo reached Zaire's room and knocked on the door. "It's just me." he said walking in and closing the door behind him. "So are you ready to go?" He asked.

Ziare was putting the last of her clothes in her pack as Jyo knocked and entered the room. "Are you ready?" he asked. His face had a serious look on it and it made her smile. "Just about."
Her room had changed since he had last seen it. Her bedding lay neatly on her bed and a stuffed bear sat between the pillow and the wall. On the night stand the picture of Jyo stood in a white frame in front of her lamp. On her desk the picture of both of them was in a white frame with pink hearts on it. Books were stacked on the floor by her bed and on her desk as well as covering the shelves.
She shoved the small lightweight jacket in the pack on the top in case it got cold and she closed it easily. She turned to him.
"I'm ready now." she said smiling. This was their first trip together and she couldn't help but show her excitement. Her and Jyo alone and camping nothing could be better.

He looked around. "Your room is looking nice." He said as he sliped on his coat now. The left sleeve as now gone. A deep red collar was fastened on his upper arm now.
"Alright then let's head out. I have a fiend who we need to meet soon though I don't think he'll hang around us much. He likes to do his own thing." He said with a somewhat amused smile.
"Yeah real slick Jyo." Said Ember.
OOC: After Your replies.
Jyo led them to the portal room in the Acadmey. His parents were waiting there. It was clear Jyo got his looks from his mother and not his father. The blond hair and the green eyes with the lanky but not weak build.
His father was the one Jyo got his height from. A tall man of 6'5 he had jet black hair and an angular but friendly face. "So this is the young lady who managed to get our son to do something other than train." Said his father as they came up. Jyo's mother smiled. "Hello Ziare. We have heard alot about you." She said warmly.

Ziare blushed shyly and shook their hands.
"It is a pleasure to meet the both of you." she said with a smile. "I can see where Jyo gets his looks and his charisma." she said looking at the both of them. She was very nervous meeting his parents though they seemed nice she was still worried they may not like her. She pulled a lock of her hair from her pony tail which was a hair style she wore very seldom and twirled it between her fingers out of nervousness.
She stood there next to Jyo her heart racing. She was wearing a white t-shirt and blue jeans with white tennis shoes she was staring at obviously nervous.

Jyo's parents smiled and then his father turned to start making the partal for them to go through and out into the world.
Hi mother on the other hand spoke up. "So Ziare Jyo tells us you are an elemental summoner and for someone just learning you are very good. I myself have never seen a summon and like Jyo his father has not grasped that type of power. Mabey while he is opening the portal you could show us?" She asked curious about the girl her son had taken such an interest in.
Jyo's father got done with the portal. "It will open wherever you are in two days after you go through it." he said with a smile. "And what is this about summoning? Cloe you aren't pestering them already are you?' he asked half serious half jokeing.

Ziare looked up at the mention of her magic. She seemed sincere in her questioning.
"I would be pleased to show you a summon if you would like." she said smiling.
She stepped away from Jyo and closed her eyes. She didn't need to anymore to concentrate but it was helping today under the speculation of Jyo's parents. She summoned forth Armenius giving him the okay to come forth but to stay docile. A red glow took over Ziare's skin and it seemed to pulsate. She whispered his name in her mind and she heard a slight squawk next to her from Armenius. I am present my child. Armenius's voice said in her mind. He had recently taken to speaking to her mind to mind and she found she enjoyed their conversations. Though Armenius looked young he was very old and very intelligent.
Ziare opened her eyes and sure enough Armenius sat next to her his head coming up to her thigh.
"This is Armenius my fire summon." she said blushing again and looking to Jyo for support.

Both of Jyo's parents smiled and looked closly at the summon. "You are as skilled as he mentioned. Very lovely. You have great potentail." Said his father. Jyo's mother nodded in agreement and then she walked over hugging Jyo. "Have fun you two and be safe." She said and then turned to give a hug to Ziare. "I'm sure you can take care of yourself but if something happens Jyo will do everything he can to keep you safe He's like that." She said.
His father gave Jyo a pat n the shoulder. They were not as close as he and his mother. but he still cared for his son. He put the other hand on Ziare's shoulder. "Have a good trip you two." he said.
Jyo and Ziare walked through the portal and then stepped out into the wilderness.

Ziare had been comforted by their words and his mother's hug had meant she had been accepted and Ziare smiled. Even his father had put a hand on her shoulder. It seemed that she had made a decent impression. Jyo and Ziare stepped through the portal into the wilderness of an unknown region to Ziare. She looked around there were trees and bushes some flowers here and there. A small stream wove it's way through the coutryside like a graceful ribbon from heaven. Ziare took a deep breath she felt home. Though she felt wonderfully comfortable at the school being in the wilderness did her good. It seemed that a glow had returned to her face and her eyes lit up with admiration.
"Oh Jyo, it's perfect." she said smiling and walking away from him a short distance. She bent over and pulled a small pink flower from a bushel of them on the ground. She lifted it to her nose and inhaled the scent. "A momento of our first trip together." she said warmly as she turned back to him.

He smiled and nodded. The flower was very pretty. "My father knows a spell that can sustain it when we get back so we'll be careful with it." He said and then set his bag down and took a few steps away from Ziare.
"Please stay back for a few seconds. I haven't done this before. You'll understand in a second." He said giving a smile.
"Okay Ember we are gone.It's just Ziare and myself out here now." He said. Jyo then felt warmth flow through him and faint red flames surrounded him. The collar on his arm glowed a very bright red. Soon the flames shot from his body and collected at one point. The flames took the form of a man sized Wolf who seemed to have a firy essence all around him.
Ziare would then hear a voice in her head. "Greetings love of Jyo. I am Ember as he has named me. Though I do not care for your race if you are important to Jyo then you are to me as he and I have become one." Said Ember curiously looking at the girl. He was able to communicate with Jyo when contained within him but not see the outside world. He was truly greatful to Jyo for this chance to be out and about so soon.
"This is the friend I said we would meet. During my first mission I was to kill him. He and I talked. I couldn't do it. He's a victem I'll explain later. The three of us are the only ones who can know the truth. To others he is a summon for his saftey." Jyo said wanting to get the only serious thing out of the way before everything started for the camp so they could enjoy it.

Ziare blushed deeply when the voice talked about how important she was in Jyo's life. She loved him but she was still unsure how he felt completely. She hoped one day to get over the insecurities but right now she just had to live with them. She listened to the voice in her mind. It wasn't scarey or rough in fact it was similar to talking to Armenius just not as comfortable.
"Hello, Ember I am pleased to meet you." she said bowing slightly. "Any friend of Jyo is one of mine. I am glad he did not kill you, you seem like a good companion."
She turned to Jyo and smiled.
"Your secret is safe with me and I can easily refer to him as a summon plus the way you brought him out here today is similar to one anyway." she smiled she turned back to Ember. "Again it is a pleasure."

Jyo walked over and hugged her. "Thank you." He said. The three of them started walking up the hill. There was barely and incline so it was a nice walk. Jyo had his arm around Ziare's waist and Ember was walking ahead and then coming back every so often to check in them.
They chatted. Just nice idle talk that friends should have. Ember hung back when they talked and though it wasn't often he spoke as well. Despite his dislike for their race he like Jyo and Ziare. Jyo he knew was an honest trustable person. And he could tell Ziare was just as honest and trusable. So they would be exceptions to his dislike along with their families.
Soon they reached a nice flat area. They set up camp withing a couple of hours and then Ember nuzzled Jyo's hand slightly and informed the two that he would be hunting for food and running for a bit.
Jyo walked over to Ziare and put his arms around her. "So what do we want to do. Embers taking advantage of this time and the food won't be ready for a while." he said.

Ziare leaned into his hug and breathed in the scents of this place. It was lovely here and it was just them. Ember was there but she didn't mind if he wanted someone to talk to she figured he might get along with Armenius though she wasn't sure and didn't mention it right now. She heard Jyo's question.
"Well two people alone in the wilderness...what is there to do?" she shrugged and looked around as if she was trying to find something to do. She hoped he would catch the playing in her voice but she was comfortable with Jyo and felt he could take her joke well.

He caught the joke and matched it. "Several things. But there's one on my mind at the moment." He said leaning in a kissing her deeply. The last couple of days after Jyo's mission they had been seperated. He missed her terribly in that short time and wanted to make up for that time away.
He knew there would be longer absences in the future. But they had just gotten together as a couple and Jyo didn't want to be away from her of he could help it right now.

Ziare threw her arms around his neck and kissed him back deeply. She had missed him more than she had let on. She had noticed his absence and it had been hard on her not to have him near her. She pulled herself as close as possible to him carressing his face with her right hand and moaning. She hadn't realized how much she had missed this until he had kissed her. She borke the kiss looking into his deep green eyes.
"Jyo...I've missed you." she said a desire written in her eyes as she scanned his for the same feelings. She looked down and then back up at him again. "Jyo...what do you feel for me?" she asked. In the days he had been gone insecurities and wrecked her self confidence where Jyo was concerned and she had to know.

"I love you Ziare. I have done everything I can to let you know that. You shouldn't be so uncertain as to how I feel. I would never lie about what I feel. It's wuick but I do love you and I can't see that changing in any way besides increasing." He said pulling away only far enough to look her in the eyes.
Ember had been near the clearing already during this time with some creature in his mouth. he was going to go back but he saw the two of them. Better give them some time alone. He's told me alot about her and not seeing her in two days from the way he talked was probebly nothing short of torture to him. Mabey I'll eat and keep watch for them He thought and ran off to let the two young ones alone for now.
Jyo went back to kissing Ziare and broke it. "It was hard not to think of you while I was gone." He said as he gently pulled her to the ground to lay n the grass next to him. "But I'll make it up to you know. There isn't any other people or buildings or problems out here." He said.
