Yang Xiao Long has posed:
    Location: Sentry Cliff, overlooking the Emerald Forest.
    Time:Sunset, approximately 17:00 hours local time.

    Yang Xiao Long stands atop the cliff she was thrown off of during Initiation. Arms folded as she watches the sun slowly setting over the horizon. It's a beautiful sight, but she chose this location for two reasons. First it was very close to Beacon Academy, so if anything were to happen, the Professors and other Students could respond quickly. And it holds some significance to the blonde.

    She waits patiently for Neva to arrive, either by 'Walking or via more conventional means.

Neva Fernandez (644) has posed:
    Because of Neva's policy on Planeswalking within the confines of a world, she finds herself walking instead to the cliff in question. Except it's not walking, its hiking. And Neva isn't THAT outdoorsy a person, as she finds herself huffing and puffing. "Why... Did you insist... On coming all the way out here... Yang...?"

    She pushes herself up to standing, takes a breath, and slow walks to her now that she's there. "Would meeting at a coffee shop have been too much..?"

Yang Xiao Long has posed:
    Yang turns as she hears the desperate scrabbling of the Planeswalker hiking up behind her. "Atmosphere, mostly. Unlocking Aura doesn't take any special location, but I like it up here. This is where I became a Huntress in Training. They hurled us off this cliff into the forest, and told us to bring back some 'artifacts'. If we survived, we got in." she shrugs. "We survived."

    She walks a bit closer, helping pick Neva up, and dust her off a bit. "Catch your breath. The experience can be pretty intense." she then makes a gesture over to a smallish hamper on a blanket. "I brought something to eat too, so we can watch the sunset."

Neva Fernandez (644) has posed:
    Neva leans a bit against Yang, nodding and pushing herself back up to a standing without wobbling, before she blinks a little and turns to gaze out from the cliff-top and whistles softly at the view, "Hell of an ambience. Very dawn of the worldsy. Except sunsety. And not at the Grand Canyon. Note to self, check out the Grand Canyon at least once. At dawn."

    She looks to Yang and peeks peers at her, "I-intense?" And then she spots the hamper and huhs, "Oh, yay, a picnic..." She pause as she looks out again to the sunset, and asks, "Um... So, are we sitting or...?"

Yang Xiao Long has posed:
    Yang looks at the sunset again, then turns back to Neva. "Lets just get it over with first, then we can relax." she says, giving a reassuring smile.

    The blonde then reaches out, placing one hand lightly on Neva's chest(Not lewdly) and the other gently cupping the Planeswalker's cheek. "It is in passing that we achieve immortatlity." she begins, eyes closing as the soft warm glow of her Aura begins to manifest, "Through this we become a paragon of glory and virtue to rise above all."

    The field begins to wash over Neva's body, soon surrounding her fully, like a warm blanket. "Infinite in distance and unbound by death." Soon, the yellow begins to 'peel back', leaving a striking red in its wake. "I release your soul, Neva Fernandez." Hey eyes open, glowing so bright there's no iris or pupil visible. "And by my shoulder protect thee."

    As the final words are spoken, the Yellow has fully retracted, leaving a faint gleam of Red around the Planeswalker. Yang, stumbles weakly, bringing a hand up to her forehead as she steadies herself.

Neva Fernandez (644) has posed:
    Two thoughts go through Neva's mind when Yang cups her cheek, which sort of seem to blend together into 'OWOWOW, SUNBURN... But it's Yang... BUT SUNBURN... But its Yang.' So she sort of bites her lip in order to keep herself from wincing, and soon she closes her blue eyes and waits.

    She can feel the change, it's strange, not completely unlike when her Spark ignited, but it's like something's reaching inside her. She opens her eyes again to gae upon Yang, spying the yellow of the field turning into red, and goes wide eyd at the bightness from Yang's eyes, but doesn't flinch.

    And suddenly all the yellow is gone and there's the red field around Neva, which she blinks and looks over her hands at, before eeping and moving to catch Yang before she fell over.

Yang Xiao Long has posed:
    Yang recovers pretty quickly. "I'm fine... I used my Aura to awaken yours... the energy that surrounds you now is your own." she explains. "It's pretty impressive, gotta say." She grins a bit, her eyes returning to normal now. "So. Sunset and picnic? It'll be warm for a few hours yet. Vale's got a nice climate."

Neva Fernandez (644) has posed:
    "Well let's just ease you down a little..." Neva says as she helps Yang sit without falling over, before sitting down herself. It's during all of this that she doesn't realize the sunburn she acquired is sloooowly fading away, perhaps not as quickly as locals would make healing go.

    "Sure... Sunset and picnic..." She smiles as she finds herself staring into Yang's lilacs eyes a little too long.
