--- Kat --- (2 days later)
After testing out the trunks Kat had spent some time relaxing. This was mostly done by spending time with Sylvie when she was home (and had no homework) or sitting on her bed while Lily took notes on shadow magic. Despite having just come off a beach resort island… Kat felt more at peace here then she had while away. It was nice to see everyone together. Part of her mind insisted she should be training… but she did enough of that during her 'vacation' anyway so she was content to settle down and relax while back at home. At least. That was the plan.
Why are we rushing through the Earth section? Well the storyline for Earth that was meant to start here got cut. I might talk about the specifics in a big author's note after the story is finished... but I had a few more arcs planned out, and with a few of them scrapped I didn't want to force a fresh "earth arc" so... we're skipping it this time I guess.
Bonus points if you can guess what the "earth arc" was covering though!
