Sira smiled menacingly towards Blaze. She patted and rubbed his head hard, this being painful to Blaze. "I'll make you strong, boy," She said. 


"Storm-let's trade. Please?" Blaze asked.


Storm blinked twice. "Wait-what?" he asked.


Sira walked past Blaze, pulling on the boy's hair. "Let's go, boy. Enough witticisms. You'll see your friends soon enough but for now, we have business to attend to," she said, and Blaze was hauled painfully by his hair. She eventually let go, drawing out a large violet crystal from her sleeve. 


"Well. I'll see you guys soon," Blaze said. Storm put up a fist, and Blaze did the same. 


"See you soon," Storm said to him, a smile on his face. 


Scion looked to Blaze, nodding in hopes for the boy to get stronger, Blaze doing the same. Sira looked to the others before they vanished, a violet energy sparking around them. Hansukayo and Aiko looked to Storm and Angel, handing them the same kind of crystal.
