Villain Itch

"What's wrong?" I asked, watching Firaga stare down the water.

"I am mostly steel, and I will oxidize after leaving the water. I do not like to be rusty," Firaga said, and I nodded.

"Don't worry, I will dry all of you off after. This isn't really water anyways; just stick a foot in, and you will see. If you don't like it, I will dry your foot off," I said, and Firaga nodded, sticking her foot in.

The AI's eye opened wide, and she looked down at her foot and then back up at me.

"What is this? I feel better just by this little?!" Firaga asked, showing surprise as I took my clothes off.

"Take the dress off, and come all the way in. It is pretty warm in here, not like melting metal or anything, but comfortable," I said as I slid into the pool.

I was slowly spreading out over the city as Firaga slowly entered the pool. I was subconsciously preparing for the next attack, and work was being done due to the Great Trees understanding my intent.
