"Girlies! Us men are hungry. You want to hurry up and cook the food?" Seth asked, taking a sweet roll from the plate. "Great rolls Jayden." I walked over, and smacked him across the face. Hard. "Oww! What was that for?"
"You know what it was for, you egotistical pig." I snarled, before returning to the cooking. "We have a drink, and two courses, we just need one more course."

"You'll stop ordering me around unless you want your ass fried." Jayden threatened. Chains of flame surrounded him quickly, much like the had Jarroc the night before. "If anyone should be cooking it's you commoners."

"Excuse me? Commoners? Who died and made you the alpha?" Seth snapped, leaning against the tree. "Your fire didn't burn Jarroc, and it won't burn me."
"Both of you, shut up! Seth, if you're not going to help then get out." I said, placing the meat on a flat rock I had found. "Jayden, think you could levitate the rock above the fire?"

Jayden eyed the rock, "I can't levitate anything, it takes alot of focus to get the wind to do as I ask. Just don't distract me or it's gonna fall straight into the fire." She glared at the rock and for a moment nothing seemed to happen. Then the wind in the clearing picked up, making Jayden's long hair fly around her face, slowly the rock lifted off of the ground and moved over the fire slowly. When it stopped moving it wobbled slightly in the air before stilling.
Keeping an eye on the rock Jayden turned away to face Seth, "Alpha? No idea what you mean by that but I'm the next queen if Leo has his way. And that fire will burn you if I want it to, be glad I've got that kind of control." The flames turned a dangerous red, one of the chains around his ankle tightened, leaving a small burn there before loosening and returning to harmless.

Jarroc smiled gratefully at Seth, before saying, "Well, future queen, I'm sorry if we're not as awe-inspired as you might have liked us to be. You see, what you see as superior I, for one, simply see as annoying. Now, do excuse us from your session of self-love for the minute, we're all much too hungry to be feeding your ego just now."
Jarroc sighed deeply, then rose from his reclined position and stretched groggily. "I'm going to go foraging. There's got to be some berries or something around here somewhere." And with that he ambled off into the undergrowth, whistling cheerfully, until he faded completely from the eyes and ears of the remaining people assembled.

Seth licked his wound, glaring at Jayden. "Well excuse me. Where I come from, you have to fight to become Alpha. I guess to be a 'queen', you just have to talk to the right guy."
"Shut up Seth!" I hugged him, before returning to the slabs of deer meat on the rock. They had been cut in such a way that they resembled bacon.

"No, to become queen I have to marry a man that I'd really rather kill." Jayden wrinkled her nose at the thought, "And keep him from doing anything stupid that would destroy the Empire before I can have him killed and pass the crown to the rightful king. You see, I'm fighting not to be queen." The stone above the fire wobbled again, threatening to fall, and her head snapped around painfully to focus on it.
Hissing curses in another language she held out a shaking hand toward it. Precision control was not her specialty, especially not when she was focusing on keeping the fire going and talking at the same time. "Damn thing, tornados I can do, this not so much."

"Hmmm?" Ember stood up wiping off her hands. "What for?" she walked over to Jayden and pointed at the meat she had layed out. "Oh and could someone else do that, I've never really cooked before."

'Well I can't do anything else unless you want to add another stripe to my hair.' She gestured to the four red stripes in her black hair on the left side of her head, 'So either get someone else to cook or go find wood so I don't have to keep the damn fire going.'
(ooc: Did I put the stripes in her bio? I may have to go edit it.)

Ember hissed under her breath and walked over to Mysty. Poking her shoulder she guestured to all the meat. "You mind cooking this before miss fire over there dies from keeping it burning?"

'It's not the fire that's the problem, that's easy, I could keep something three times that size going for hours.' Jayden snapped, 'It's holding that damn rock in the air that's the problem. I've got to keep control of every air current within two feet of it to keep it from falling, every time one of you moves I have to deflect the air movement.'

Ember looked at her as Kayden landed beside her, "uh-huh. Anyways," she continued turning back to Mysty, "do you mind?"

ooc: Since mysty is not replying *pokes with stick* I'll change this a tad. bic: Ember sighed and grabbed the meat cooking them one by one. In an odd way they did look like what most people would call 'bacon'.When everything was finsihed she motioned to Jayden indicating she didn't need the rock anymore. Laying out the meat she turned and asked, "Does this mean we only have one course?" ((Lady says: hey you can edit your posts to include information that you forgot / have newly decided to put in. You don't have to double post. That's what makes posting here so much better than neopets. ))

"Two, there's the sweet rolls." Jayden said. The rock moved off to the side of the fire and then hit the ground with a heavy thump, Jayden sat on it, grateful for the heat still pouring off of it's surface.

She nodded, "So we need one more, and that's all," she bit her lip trying to remember what they would eat, "Could we try to find some fruit or something?"
