The vortex of flame dispersed once Adeen no longer felt the flames of the other boy around her. 

[color=fff200]"Whew, that was closh - I mean close,"[/color] she said, correcting her lisp. Being inside the vortex made her blind to the situation outside, so she was surprised to see the boy who made the pretty blue flame pinned to the ground, surrounded by other people who looked really annoyed. Especially that woman with the smoking, melted walking stick - she looked like her mom did when she burnt one of the family heirlooms by accident. 

Another woman stepped in, and Adeen could hear the sound of birds chirping. [color=fff200][i]Oh, wait, that's lightning isn't it? Bleh, I don't like lightning,[/i][/color] she thought. To her, lighting was flashy and hot, but it wasn't as flashy and warm was fire. [color=fff200][i]Yeah, fire really is the best.[/i][/color]

The girl shook her head to clear her thoughts. Right now, what was more important was helping the guy with the pretty flame. He looked like he was being bullied, and it looked like they were trying to drive him away. If they did that, she would never learn how he was able to make his fire color blue!

Adeen thought of the best way to help him. A second passed and she reached the inevitable conclusion on how to best assist Lao. One word: It started with an 'F' and ended with an 'e'.

Grinning to herself, a bright flame burst from underneath Lao, consuming the young man in searing hot flames - well, hot to anyone who was touching him, anyway. Adeens control was truly marvelous, such that she could make it so only the things she wanted to be burned would burn. So though Lao was covered in flames, all he would feel was a mild heat, some difficulty in breathing, and perhaps a bit of itchiness. To everyone else however, it was a flame like any other.
