The oldest boy of the family had seen a lot of Gale, Terre and Locha, but had seen little of Sere. His fiery little spit ball of a sister had done as much wondering as Voltage, and he was hoping to check up on her to ensure she was okay. He wondered across the Volcano, a place that oddly seemed situated to Sere's personality in his head. He thought he could catch a faint whiff of Voltage and Sere's scent's mixed together in some places in the trek, but they where old and stale in the still air, left behind only because it had not rained for the last day or so. At the very least, he knew Sere had been near by and would raise his head to howl for his little sister. Well he waited for a response he moved forward a little more until he was under the cover of some towering trees. Spring had been in the air for a while now and winter seemed long forgotten, and already he missed his favorite season. The heat seemed inhumanly harsh against his bulk and thick coat and already his tongue was lolling from his mouth to relieve himself of the heat, he just wished it would rain! Or show some sign of a cooler temperature to come. "Burn Baby Burn"

NO CHURCH IN THE WILD

Serefina was indeed around the volcano, the aura of her heat stench had made her be a little more cautious about her wandering. But it was boring, so she had to entertain herself somehow -- so she climbed a tree. It had taken her a long time to get up here, but she had the grace of a cat and the stubbornness of a bull. There was bark stuck in her paws, and she dug it out with her teeth. Gritting as the bled, she just shrugged and enjoyed her position high up. Crawling up a few more branches she found a little spying area, the bushiness of the tree had fallen at some point or another. It was then that she picked out Glacier's form heading towards her, his head tipping back and calling for her. Sere bit her lower lip stop her from herself from laughing, holding her body perfectly still so that she would not rattle the tree. It couldn't become any more perfect when he came to rest under her tree as he waited. A wicked grin spread as she very carefully crawled down the tree, waiting until the wind rustled the tree to make any big moves. Soon she was lingering right above his head, but slightly in front of his face. Taking a slight leap she swung the front half of her body swing as her flame dusted paws landed on Glacier's head. Wild giggles left her maw as the fiery girl yanked herself back up the tree, jumping out of it and landing just before her brother. Grinning, she tilted her head to the side. "You called?"

There was little respite beneath the shade of the trees, which he found as he passed under their cover. There wasn't much of a wind to blow cool air his way, which also explained how he missed the scent of his sister. He heard the vague rustling of the tree, easily passed as the gentle push of the soft wind or the movement of wild life. His ears twitched at the sound of their soft noses but he didn't bother to look up at whatever creature reacted to his presence. He felt her presence, heard the barest of noises right before she pulled down in front of him, he surged up in response, moving a massive paw to swipe at whatever threatened him only to find that it – no, she – had already swung back up, almost out of reach of the giant male. His suprise softened to a smile as he recognised his daring sister even as she jumped down from her branch and landed as agile as a cat on the earth beside him. The Titan shook his head in wonder, his bulk put such activities far out of his reach. “I did indeed, Little Flame” he responded, moving forward to nudge his head gently against his sister. They did not get much time alone, this pair, which was no wonder for even through he loved her with all his heart she could be a right trouble maker when she wanted to be... she, like Voltage, was a being of energy.

Oh darling my hearts on fire

Well I don’t know where and I don’t know when, but I know we’ll be lovers again. I’ll see you some day before the end, I don’t know where and I don’t know when. Oh darling my hearts on fire, you know those love songs will break your heart.

He had moved to swat at her, but she was too quick for him. Voltage wasn't the only one with lighting reflexes! She giggled as he shook his head at her, and her salmon tongue poked out of her ebony maw. His large blue and white head moved down and nuzzled against her, and she let out a soft hum. Ember eyes slipped closed as she moved into her brothers touch, but the calm moment didn't last for long. Serefina practically thrummed with energy, it wasn't hard to feel it pulse off her in waves like her own heat. He said that he did indeed call her, and her gaze rested on his own. "Whatever for dearest?” she said with a mock grace, batting her lashes at her brother. She shifted her weight across her paws, dancing in place. She wasn't quite good at sitting still...

Glacier narrowed his eyes at the tongue that lolled from between her cheeks and teasingly twitched a paw as through he was going to swipe at it, through his movement went no further then that hint. As he moved against her, he could feel the sweet hum that emitted beautifully from her throat, and the indecisive girl leaned into him for a moment, and he enjoyed the moment, knowing it would not last long. “Cant a brother look for his heart breaking fire girl every once in a while?” he asked teasingly as he sat back on his hunches and regarded her. “you've been off adventuring so much I haven't seen much of you, Efina, tell me, whose heart have you broken lately?” he continued to tease.

She bolted backwards when she saw his paw twitch towards her, easily dropping into a play bow. But the paw didn't come towards her, and she frowned sourly at her older brother. She was looking forward to him trying to slap a paw towards her, just so she could try to sink her teeth into it. But she moved beside him, stretching upwards to nuzzle into her shoulder. She felt so tiny beside him, but then again all her siblings did. He was the tallest of them all, probably always would be. He asked if he was not allowed to look for her, and a wicked grin spread across her lips. "Because I'm always off breaking hearts, am I not? What if you were taking me away from my little games?" Serefina asked with a purr, raising herself upwards to rest her front paws on his tall shoulder. She was so very tempted to try and climb up him like she had her tree, trying to picture herself draped around his neck. Giggling, she coiled her muscles and tried to leap up on him, forever as lithe as a cat. If she was successful in getting up there, she would try to balance herself by putting her front paws on his left shoulder, back ones wiggling on his right shoulder.

Glacier asked her who's heart she had broken lately, and her thoughts went directly to Pandora, the golden marked goddess that she had run into. Her head spun as she could practically taste her fur again, her sweet voice singing towards her. She let out a soft sigh, pulling her head down to look at him upside down again. "I'm always adventuring, brother dearest. As for breaking hearts, I believe I left on rather good terms this time." she said with a smirk, attempting to boop her nose against his.

It would of course not be in Glacier's make up to ever raise a paw to his siblings, no matter how much they might sometimes strain his patience. These people, these members of his family where his life even if they all where so far apart and different in personalities. In fact, knowing this, it probably said a lot about them that they all chose to remain together, to be stronger as a whole. Serefina moved beside him, her body seemed cat-like in its teasing grace as she nuzzled into his shoulder. He leaned down to kiss the top of her forehead in response, adoring his little sister despite all the crazy things she had done, and was likely planning to do, to make his life a misery. “Oh dear, I wouldn't want to do that you would probably drop me off into your volcano..” he teased gently in response. She stood on her full height before him, and they could look eye to eye for a moment, the great beast of a wolf and his little sister. Then of course, she just had to try whatever went through her mind and she would leap up onto him. He held himself very still so not to throw her, as her weight found itself onto his shoulders, he 'umfhed' slightly as her bony knees dug into his collar bone, and then she was up there. It would be from up here that she would answer his question, dipping her head down to look at him as she spoke. He would chuckle softly at her words “My my, Efina, leaving on terms that everyone agrees with? Doesn't sound like the heart breaker I know” he teased gently, still un-moving, but for the soft vibration of his throat as he spoke. He was very skilled at keeping himself still, an unmovable giant. Sere and Volt where the speedsters of the lot, but Glacier, he was the boulder, hard to move, and unstoppable when it did. She would boop her nose against his and his eyes would roll upwards to look at her, the towering figure above his head – it was not every day he could descripte his siblings as such. “Impressive balance, little Fire Salamander” "Burn Baby Burn"
