The Battle

"This is so much fun !! Yipeeeeeee!" Emilia freed her hair from the hold of the ribbon that Riana had doned earlier in the day. She dipped her hand into the water and scooped just enough to wet her hair.

"Woohoo!!!!!!! I am happy I met you, Emilia!"

"Me too!"

"Woohoo!," Bruno whooped without a stop.

"Woohoo!" Emilia joined in happily.

"Grhhhhhhhhhhh!," A response came from the woods.

"What what what was that?" Emilia asked quickly.

"Grhhhhhhhhhhh!"

Emilia saw it's claws even before it appeared. Yes, it appeared all of a sudden only to startle.

"You want a water fight?" Bruno's eyes danced with excitement as he removed his cloak.

"Yesssssssss!" Emilia splashed more water on him, expecting him to do the same thing. In no time, the duo began to wade in the water and splash water on themselves repeatedly. Their happy squeals and shouts bounced off the several trees in the forest.
