[Crystal: Fly - 10]
"One more time and we'll take a little break while I figure out what to train you to do next," Jack told her, patting her on the back before looking out over the garden. It looked good from up here, and she was pleased with herself for all the work she had put into it. Oh well, she had time to look over it later, and she pointed at the sky again, "Fly, Crystal!" The Equillion pushed off and flew into the sky, tilting and turning from time to time to see if she had the stamina for it. She didn't have much though, she couldn't stay in the air too terribly long, but Jack knew that would come with practice. Still though, an apple for a job well done and a hug around the neck were her rewards when she stumbled to a land next to her again. The woman was pleased, and she knew that great things would come.

It was time to take a little break from training in general, and Crystal seemed to appreciate it a little bit. Jack patted her on the side and strolled down the hill with the Pure at her side, flapping her wings and hopping from time to time as she walked along. Things were fine, but she had a bit of an idea forming that she had gone through with. She felt the item in her bag and eyed the Equillion for a moment, she wanted consent to do this of course, and it was fine. She knew that Crystal would agree to it when she explained it a little, she needed an advantage over the others in the tournament after all, and this was it. Chewing her lip, she waited until they were both at the bottom of the hill before she turned to the Pure and took a deep breath, wondering how to phrase it.

Jack frowned a little and pulled the injection out of her bag, showing it to the Equillion after a moment. She explained what it was, what it could do to her, and why she probably needed it for the upcoming tournament. Crystal seemed nervous, but willing, and closed her eyes as the woman injected the fiery red liquid into the Pure. Crystal staggered for a moment before flames licked from her mouth when she opened it again, startling her a little bit as she wondered what had happened. Good! The injection had taken hold and Jack was pleased with what it had given her, or at least what she thought it had given her. The ability to breathe fire and probably becoming resistant to it as well, the resistance wasn't as useful as the flame breath, but that would come with time, she figured with a broad smile. She was pretty happy, though it gave her more things to train.

The Gym had some new rules, and they couldn't go back for awhile, which was fine by her, but at least it didn't seem to take as long for them to increase their abilities anymore. Smiling, she patted Crystal on the side and then wandered the garden as the Equillion looked a little confused and tried to figure out her new abilities. This would be alright, though she did wonder what would happen if she set the garden on fire. Jack winced a bit and glanced over at her, but realized she wouldn't do it, at least not yet, and that was fine by her, they would figure it out as they went along. Smiling a bit, she reached out and plucked a little flower, sniffing it with a happy look on her face. If she could find some good things in the gardens, then maybe they would be alright no matter what.

Crystal was doing fine and they would be alright in the future, but the deadline was looming and she knew it was going to be awhile before they got their training done unless they kicked it into high gear. Technically she figured they could get by with training one more thing, but that was hard to imagine for now she figured, chewing her lip a little bit. Jack sighed a little and looked down at the ground, kicking a spot of dirt with a frown. She wasn't sure what to take with things, and that was fine she figured with a little rub of the head, but she hoped that everything would work out for them. She didn't necessarily want to win the tournament, but she at least wanted to put up a fight, which was something she didn't figure people would expect at this point, since she hadn't been entering anything too spectacular lately.

All they had to do was concentrate and figure things out as they went, but that was the danger as well she figured with a little frown as she looked over at Crystal. Shaking her head a bit, she wondered what was going to happen between them after the tournament, were they still going to be a little close or would they drift apart like she did with some of her animals from time to time? It would be alright, she knew that much, but she still felt a little upset by it. Well, if she got to be well trained, then she knew she would remember her, she had already injected her, that was even better, she knew with a little chuckle. Narrowing her eyes, she knew what they had to do, but she didn't think they were ready for it quite yet. That was the hardest part, gauging when the Equillion would be ready for something else at this point.

The garden looked pretty good for now, but there were a few weeds here and there. Usually Zech helped her out with things, but his family had grown leaps and bounds, and she didn't know what to expect from him at this point. The woman chuckled a little as she thought about him and his greater offspring, one had gone to Xentus, but that was alright, at least she had gotten some interesting wings out of that breeding. Still, she debated breeding him again and questioned Crystal about it, who had no care about the whole ordeal. Jack flipped her hand a little at the answer and shrugged, it didn't really matter, but she would have to do it herself at this point, which she didn't really want to do. Breeding a pair of Pachee alone had been hard enough, she didn't think she could handle doing a Dragon Oak breeding by herself again anytime soon.

Jack pushed her hair back with a little smile as she tried to figure out what to do with her time in the garden. It wasn't like she could really train up Crystal right now she figured as she watched the Equillion trot around the area, testing out her new fire breath for now. The woman chuckled, wondering what was going to happen, would she set the whole place on fire? Oh well, if she did, the animals would get out of the way and she could reseed the whole place if she needed to. Nodding, she figured she would let the Pure do what she needed to do for the moment and smiled a little as she tried to figure out what she needed to do for now. Chewing on her lip, she shook her head, hoping she would come up with something rather soon, and so she wandered around the garden on her own for now.

It wasn't as though she had to think too hard on things for now, but at least she knew what was going to happen. Crystal was going to do things alright at the moment, and she smiled a little, hoping that all would be alright in the end of it all. Well, she figured she would get her water magic ready anyway just in case, that would be the worst though, just sitting aside not doing anything about it. Sighing, however, she settled down next to the pond and fingered the nodes in her pouch, wondering what she needed to do for the moment to get herself a new one. She really needed to get into the mines, but with everything else that was going on, that was going to be hard for her to do. Frowning a bit, she hoped she would have some answer for herself sooner rather than later at this point.

There wasn't much she needed to do other than... well... everything. She looked down at her hands for a moment with another sigh. She was so lonely nowadays, but she didn't really know why. It was tough some days, but there were other days she could interact with people and those days were pretty good. For now though she had her animals, which should be good enough but it really wasn't for whatever reason. Giving a little frown, the woman glanced over at Crystal and smiled as she pranced around, blowing smoke every now and then, pleased with her newfound powers. It was as though they were made for her, she just wished she had the ability to add a little color to her hooves or something at this point. That would be the best, and she chuckled as Crystal weighed in on that thought. She wasn't pleased that things were going that way, apparently.

Well, it was worth a shot, and Jack waved away the Equillion with a small chuckle as she thought about it. Well, there was something at least, and as she looked around the garden, she saw a few things she was willing to pick up and take home with her. She opened her bag and plucked a small, brilliant blue flower and put it into the bag with a smile. Things were starting to look up, she figured, and she glanced up at the sky for a moment or two. She needed to figure out what to do right now, and that was fine at the same time. Jack glanced over at Crystal and chuckled a little, trying to figure out what she needed to do for now. Well, she needed to train her some more, but she needed a little more experience, which is what this was the point of at this time anyway.

It wasn't as though she had a lot of time left before the tournament and all that, which was a big issue at the moment. Sighing, the woman shook her head and leaned back against a tree next to the pond she was by. As long as she kept trying, however, she was good, and Crystal was pleased with life at the moment, breathing bits of fire and smoke for now, neighing for a little while as she pranced around. Life was great right now, and the woman laughed with her a little bit as she got around to listening to her in her head. Well it was alright, as long as things worked out well then it was just fine at the moment. Jack pushed her hair back and smiled a little bit, wondering what was going to happen if they were going to get this training done. There was a lot more to do.

Jack watched Crystal nose around Zech a little bit and warned her not to rile him up, though that was difficult as it was at the moment. Frowning, she hoped that the gentle giant was good for now, and she smiled a little as she thought about it all. Jack had a lot of animals, she really needed to thin them out a little, but that was fine at the same time. Chewing her lip, she hoped it was alright to have this many at some point, and she really hoped that it was a good thing she had so many. At least they all had each other on the days she couldn't be there, plus she had the TROD. Crystal knew of the robot, it had helped her from time to time as well, but she hoped to be with the woman more at this point, it was going to be great fun if they did.

As she looked around some more, she saw a similar flower to the one she had found last time and plucked it, the bright orange flower looked lovely in the bag with the other one as she settled it in there. Grinning, she wondered if she had enough back at the Kennel to trade in just yet, or if she would need to find some more. She pushed herself to her feet and began to wander again, petting some animals from time to time and chuckling at the packs of Pachee who ran around for the moment. It was fine, they were alright, and at least she would have more eventually, though that was something she needed to put out of her head for the moment. With things going the way they were, she glanced over at Crystal again and hoped that all would work out in the long run. It would have to, wouldn't it?
