Anyway....

Aravis had her scythe by her, as she leant on a tree. Having the Scythe made her get over little of being shy. She just kept her eyes closed.

"Oh, h-hi Aravis," Violet greeted quietly. She walked up to Aravis but she stayed at least five feet away from her. The scythe really creeped her out.

"Hi," she said in a sleepy voice.

"Um, how have you been?" Violet asked meekly, still eying her scythe.

"Here and there," she said opening her eyes.

"Oh," murmured Violet. She really didn't know what else to say. Keeping a conversation going had never one of her strengths.

Aravis got up using her scythe. With one swift swipe, Aravis plunged the blade into the ground

Violet let out a shrill, "Eep!" and she had to use all her will power to keep herself from shrinking two inches when Aravis's scythe came crashing into the ground. "P-please don't do the again," she said meekly, covering her face with her hands.

Aravis didn't reply. instead, she started to climb the tree.

Violet watched Aravis climb the tree throw her fingers. After about a minute of watching the tree she had disappeared into, Violet slowly shuffled over to the tree and stood underneath it. "What are you doing up there?" she asked shyly.

Aravis didn't reply again, no she just climbed higher.

Violet watched silently from below as Aravis climbed higher. With a sigh she sat down against the base of the tree trunk.

Aravis let out a small cry as she slipped on a dead branch. The branch gave way, but on the way down she caught hold of a new branch. As for the dead one it fell to the ground.

Violet heard the branch snap and looked up suddenly. To her horror she saw the giant branch falling above her. She gave out a scream and covered her head with her arms and waited for the dead branch to come crashing down on her head. However, the moment the bark came in contact with her skin, the branch suddenly shrunk so that it was no bigger than a twig. Violet looked in amazement at the miniature branch on the ground by her feet. Did I do that? she thought in bewilderment.

Aravis climbed down the tree. She didn't know where the branch was, but she was just happy that it didn't hurt Violet.

Violet stuck out one shaky hand and picked up the tiny branch. She stared at it in bewilderment.

Even though Violet would throw her off, Aravis gave her a hug for not dying

"Aravis!" Violet exclaimed in surprise when Aravis hugged her suddenly. Violet shrunk about an inch and and just sat there letting Aravis hug her, not knowing what else to do. It was, after all, the first time she had been hugged by someone outside of the family.

"I'm so glad you're alive!" she said almost yelling. She had only two friends here, and didn't want too lose one.

"Oh, um, I, um," Violet stuttered, still in shock from being tackle hugged. Suddenly the branch Violet was still clutching in her hands grew back to normal size. Violet screamed in surprise. She stared down at the giant branch now sitting in her lap.

At that moment Aravis lost her grip, and to the branch she said, " What the?"

"Ohmygosh! This is amazing!" Violet exclaimed, suddenly shooting up of the ground. "ImeanIcanactuallyshrinkthings!I'vealwaysbeenabletoshrinkmyselfbutI'veneverbeenabletoshrinkthings!Canyouimaginethepossibilities-..." Violet suddenly stopped babbling when she realized she had just had a very out of character moment. Her face turned a bright red and she shrunk three inches out of embarrassment.

ooc: translation: I mean I can actually shrink things! I've always been able to shrink myself but I've never been able to shrink things! Can you imagine the possibilities-...

Aravis stood with her face like this: 0.0. After a minute she climbed back up the tree.

Violet fell to her knees and banged her head against the tree trunk with a groan but not before shrinking another inch or two.

Maleia walked into the courtyard, too see this young girl banging her head just as she had done a few weeks ago. she just let it be in the end. She walked over to the tree, and sat down" Why?"
