Prior to arriving to the Magical Kingdom of Pilaf land, a tree off the mainland’s cliff edge overlooking the sea caught Tiger Lily’s attention mid flight. While she wanted to take a closer look, she was falling behind from Cayle who continued on towards their flight path destination, and she made a mental note to return after visiting the theme park given that they were planning a week long stay. After a couple of days of enjoying everything the magical park had to offer, Ty returned to the cliff, the tree was large enough for a tree house, and she had a large crate of materials that she purchased being carried on her back effortlessly to build one. While she finished the solid foundation well on her own, the entire day was gone, and she had to camp out for the night. The next morning, she figured she should ask for more help building the tree house and texted Achido the coordinates on instinct. After a minute she realized she should probably text Cayle since it seemed that it bothered him whenever she was alone with her best friend. Even if Achido had been female, she would still feel the same, and gender had nothing to do with anything no matter how many times she replayed every scenario in her head. She plucked blade like leaves out of her orange hair, pouting for a minute as she hoped that the people she cared about the most would get along for this project. In the meantime, she focused on finishing the roof, which was embedded within the foliage of the tree, and carefully installed solar panel fish scale shingles with a mother of pearl sheen to them. By the time she was done it was mid-afternoon, the interior and exterior walls needed to be installed, the electrical wiring run through each room, and the wooden flooring installed. The house held a nautical look, it almost resembled the one in her home island, and she failed to notice the similar design as she was working too closely on the project. Ty was wearing a white t-shirt dress, which had small stains from rolling on the dirt below the tree, and opted for denim shorts this time around since her sweat pants kept on getting ruined along with matching white sneakers; which she always wore being that they were the most comfortable. She began to chew on a stick, her ocean teal eyes stared up at the tree from lying on the ground, and took a short break from completing the tree house. Having a place in Pilaf Land meant saving a ton more zeni from having to stay at Shu-Ri-Ken Hotel in Shu Land. [452/9,000]

Once Achido finished testing out the motorcycle on the track with Ty, Wuubi, and Rihito, the teenager purchased a ticket to Pilafland, via airplane. With his new bike tucked away within the plane, Achido boarded the flight and found his seat. The young man placed his bag in the space above the seats, then got comfortable, while staring out the window before the plane would fly off to his destination. With no experience in flying, Achido was feeling a bit nervous and scared, but he looked out the window and thought of the theme parks that were spread out across Pilafland.
As the engines roared alive, the teenager quickly buckled himself into the seat and took a few deep breaths. "You can do this, Achido! Just stay calm, you'll be there before you know it." He thought to himself, as he felt the plane pull forward slowly. Just as the plane started to go much faster, he closed his eyes and gripped the armrest to his left. It was almost like a rollercoaster, but different in many ways. Before he knew it, the plane was off the ground and soaring through the skies above.
The flight would be a short one, but the stewardess would randomly walk through and offer others a drink or snack for the trip. As she strolled by the teenager, Achido looked to her with a smile before speaking. "I'll have a water, please." He said to her with the same excited tone that Achido always had. The dark haired woman smiled and handed the kid a bottled water, before moving on to the next guest on the plane. There was so much going through his mind at the time, but it seemed he had forgotten all about his fear of flying and finally began to enjoy himself.
As time passed by fairly quickly, the plane descended from the sky and landed upon the concrete landing strip, screeching its tires until it slowed down to a stop. The teenager was excited that the trip was over and finally able to test out the bike on his own. He unbuckled the seatbelt and stood from his seat, stretching out a bit from the long flight. Everyone lined up and made their way off the plane and back to their lives.
With Achido making his way down the stairs of the plane, he saw that his bike was already out there waiting for him. He smiled wide and hopped down the remaining stairs, then ran off to his bike. There was a moment when he just stood there and took in the fact that he had his own motorcycle and was beginning to finally let it all set it. Before he got onto the bike, Achido grinned and grabbed his helmet from out of his bag. The teenager placed the bag over his shoulder, then the helmet over his head, and finally hopped up to get on the bike.
Once Achido kicked the bike to life, he quickly zoomed off the strip and onto a small dirt trail, leading away from the city within Pilafland, but heading more toward the edge of the land to scout out the area. With a lush forest surrounding the dirt path, the teenager found himself cruising at a reasonable speed with no idea of where he was. The sound of the engine echoed throughout the forest, but the teenager began to slow down as he came to a large cliff. There was a giant tree and what seemed like somebody working on a treehouse. This was right up Achido's alley, so he stopped the bike and noticed a woman with red hair up in the treehouse. "Ty?" He said, as he hopped off the bike once more and began to walk closer to the tree, while looking up to see if it was really his best friend.

Tiger Lily had been occupied running electrical cables when she heard the familiar sound of the Wolfgang motorcycle and Achido’s voice so she dropped everything she was doing and back flipped from the top of the incomplete tree house. As she dropped towards the ground she tackled him off his feet almost knocking him into the motorcycle and took flight to slow down the momentum as she was careless about causing her friend injury. With a wide apologetic smile she released his gi and stood him back up and began to talk with her hands.
“What took you so long? It’s been days since I last saw you at the circuit. I thought you wanted to come to Pilaf Land at the same time. Did you have trouble getting permission from your parents? Don’t they know how strong you are now after training with me? You are pretty much stronger than any adult and I really don’t see how age has to do with anything compared to south city and their age restricted curfews… though I think it has mostly to do with partying late at night and avoiding underage drinking…”
The orange haired teenage girl was notorious about withholding everything that went on in her head and she had not told Achido what she had been through. After shaking her head she smiled widely to check her phone to look at the time she had sent her text to him.
“Wow, did you really come from South City in fifteen minutes?” She chuckled, completely unaware that he had not seen the text, and that he was actually here on perfect timing. “Isn’t this tree strange and mysterious? I think it has its own power level. Deep inside it’s trunk, it has fighting spirit, and I felt like building a tree house around it. The tree probably enjoys our company. Hey, did you bring any snacks? I am feeling rather hungry.”

Achido was rather surprised to see Ty way out in the middle of nowhere, especially building a treehouse inside what seemed to be a rather mysterious tree. As Ty questioned where he has been the past few days, Achido waited until she was finally done questioning him, before he was actually able to respond to anything she had said. "Well, it took me a couple of days to find the airport. I can't fly, so I needed to make sure I could make it here with the new bikes we got. As for my parents, I am pretty sure they have called in a missing child to the local police. With everything going on, I kind of forgot that I am still a kid." He said in response to all of her questions.
"Those bikes are really fast, I didn't realize how fast they could go until just recently." He responded to Ty mentioning that it had only took the teenager fifteen minutes to travel from south city to her current location. With the kid still looking up at the mysterious tree, Ty spoke of how the tree could have a power level of its own. He smiled and looked over to her, then gently placed his hand upon the trunk. "It is very possible. This tree is alive just like you and me, but this one.." He paused for a moment, the released his hand from the trunk. "Is different somehow.." He finished speaking, then realized that Ty was hungry.
Achido wasn't ignoring Ty at all. In fact, he pulled the bag around his shoulder and unzipped it, then reached in to pull out a tupperware of pasta salad. "This was for me, but if you're hungry, go ahead and eat. I can help out around here if you don't mind." He said to her with a smile, while looking up to examine the tree and the house she built within the tree limbs. It was absolutely amazing and Achido wanted to climb up and see exactly what Ty had created, but he knew better and wanted to wait.

“You should at least text your parents, Achido. They are the only ones you have!” Ty puffed her cheek for a minute but then proceeded to smile just to take an unexpected selfie with him using her c-phone on impulse, “I message my parents every day and my uncle Toad Lily, who is presently my guardian, trusts me a lot more than them honestly. He was independent when he was thirteen so he expects the same for me at seventeen.”
She smiled widely as Achido pulled out the Tupperware with pasta salad which was actually one of her favorites more specifically the macaroni or bow tie style pastas for their fun shapes. Ty wasted no time eating and stuffed Achido’s mouth whenever he opened it utilizing a pair of chopsticks she had in her possession; she figured they should share it rather than eat it all by herself. With a sigh, she placed the empty container in a metal bucket, and drank water from a bottle to wash it all down and gasped. “Ah that hit the spot. I ate nothing yesterday.” She laughed as she looked through her duffel bag and pulled out a survival guidebook. “According to this, we should hunt for our food, birds and four legged animals are good source of meat. This chapter I was reading last night explains on how to prepare a bird to roast over a spit. I packed spices and cooking stuff. I figured I could just punch one out rather than use a weapon. Maybe an energy blast if I fire it like a bullet?”A bird like snake head poked out from a bush and began licking the empty pasta salad container inside the bucket. As Ty drew near it, the raptor like bird jumped, causing the bucket to flip over its own head in a panic as it ruffled its feathers about. “Come on Achido! It’s our dinner later!”[320] [2,099/9,000] Achido

As Ty suggested that Achido should at least text his parents to let them know that he is fine, so he reached into his pocket and pulled the C-phone out. With a brief second of silence, the teenager sent his mother a text message to make sure she wouldn't worry anymore. "You're right, they at least deserve to know I am okay." He responded to her, while putting the C-phone back into his pocket. Just as Ty went to take a selfie with Achido, he quickly smiled wide, while throwing up the peace sign with his two fingers.
It was moments like that when Achido felt unstoppable. Ty was his crutch that always kept him in a happy mood, even on days when the teenager felt defeated, Ty was there to cheer him up or at least give him the proper motivation to feel better about things. Seeing Ty eat made Achido happy, but then she shoveled pieces of pasta into his mouth with no hesitation. He smiled wide and began to chew the pasta instantly. The teenager quickly washed it all down with a bottle of water, then twisted the cap on, before tossing the bottle back into his bag.
When Ty began to speak about her survival guidebook, Achido couldn't help but to keep the same smile upon his face. Hunting was something he had never done before, but Achido knew that it would be a lot of fun, especially with his best friend to guide him. "Hunting, huh? Never tried it, but I'd do anything with you by my side! Wait, you said energy blast? You've gotta show me this some time!" He replied with excitement in his voice once more. He was a bit confused at what Ty meant when she said about shooting an energy blast like a bullet.
With the sound of rustling from a nearby bush, a bird-like creature had popped its head out and began to lick the empty dish of pasta salad. Achido quickly turned his attention to the raptor and smiled wide, as the bird seemed to flip the bucket upon its head and began to jump around in panic. The creature was beautiful, but Ty was right when she said it would be their dinner for later. The boy quickly ran over, only a few feet from the bird to try and surround it with Ty on the other side. "C'mon, Ty. Let's see if we can his thing before it flies off." He whispered, so that his words wouldn't startle the creature

Tiger Lily dropped the survival guide, scrambled on her feet to surround the bird-like dinosaur who was blinded by the bucket on its head, it flapped its wings, and darted away. The orange haired teen ran after it, through the forest, the creature was fast, and it used its powerful back legs to push itself back from hitting a tree trunk it almost ran into. The bird used its instincts, despite the bucket blinding its sight, to return to its nest drawing the teens to the cliff side. Ty closed in and grappled the bird off the edge, taking flight in mid air as she strangled the bird by the neck, and realized the cliff had dozens of nests with the same bird on the rock face. With her tongue sticking out she slowly flew back on the cliff’s edge not to alert the other birds from instinctively attacking her with their sheer numbers. With a quick snap of the bird’s neck, she ended its life, the warm temperature of its blood began to drop as its heart stopped beating, and she started walking slowly towards the tree house feeling rather upset as she handed a bird almost Achido’s height over. “Huh, I feel kind of bad, but a growing girl and boy have to eat! You are never going to get taller unless you eat your protein!” Ty grinned, “This is the beginning of a balanced diet. Starting with controlling your fighting spirit to form a concentrated blast of energy. Remember that solar flare technique from our first encounter? It’s kind of like that except tinier and less flashy. Like this.”
Pilling a few logs in a fire pit from last night, she focused her ki in her hand, a red light began to form the size of a small stone and she released it to ignite the logs. As the logs began to burn, she dug out a spit stand from her duffel bag, and rotating mechanism to turn the raptor automatically using kinetic energy. “Okay this is almost ready. Just need to prepare the bird, removing it feathers, and drain out all the blood. While it’s cooking we can finish building the tree house, so maybe we can sleep in it tonight, instead of sleeping on the forest floor...which was a bit uncomfortable but I didn’t want to risk getting my cute DynoCapsule bed wet in case it rained.”
Ty took the time to prepare the bird as planned, using the bucket to hold the blood that was drained, and seasoned the bird as instructed by the survival manual before poking a metal rod through its mouth and tying its limbs down. The spit began to rotate from the uneven weight distribution after she spun the wheel a few times to get it going. It was beginning to smell aromatic in the immediate area that is was almost distracting but she was determined to finish the flooring of the tree house with Achido’s help. “Alright hold on to me, allez hop.” She smiled as she tugged on his forearm to take Achido up towards the top of the tree house, “You need to train harder, Achido, you’re slacking already, you should be able to fly by now since we were evenly matched in our last spar together. There is no reason for you not to be able to...unless you’re afraid of heights? Fear is slowing you down! You must overcome it!” By the time she set him on his feet on the completed balcony of the tree house she began to shake him by the shoulders as she hovered in the air. “I believe in you!”

As Achido surrounded the bird-like dinosaur, it was freaking out with the bucket still on its head, feathers flying about, and weird noises coming from under the bucket. It began to flap its wings up and down, then the little bugger ran off into the forest. Ty instantly shot off and ran after it, then Achido did the same. He pushed off the ground with his right foot and quickly picked up speed through the forest. "And here we go!" He called out in an excited tone of voice, while continuing to chuckle and run at the same time.
Once Achido was able to catch up to Ty and the Dino Bird, he noticed his best friends attempt at grappling up with blinded creature, then flew off the cliff with it. Achido had never done anything like this, but the sight of the dinosaur struggling and screeching for its life, caused the human to cover his ears, close his eyes, and turn away from what was happening. The teenager pushed hard enough against his ears to feel some pain, but he opened his eyes after a short time, then turned around as Ty was walking toward him with the lifeless bird in her hands.
When she tried to hand it over, Achido pushed it back into her arms. "There's no way that I am touching that. I feel bad enough as it is!" He responded, while turning to look up at the treehouse. "Hey, I don't mind eating it, I just don't think I have it in me to kill it. The thing did look cute too." He pouted. Just as Ty was trying to show him how to use ki, he turned and watched the woman conjure up a small amount of pure energy, and force it out from her palm toward the legs in the fire pit.
The teenager's eyes shot open in shock to what he had seen his best friend just do. This was not Achido's first time sensing that type of energy, because he felt the same exact feeling, when Ty and Achido sparred awhile back. With the fire blazing from the ki used by Ty, Achido looked down to his hands and smirked a bit. "Is it a good thing that we can do this kind of stuff? I mean, what if someone with bad intentions has these same abilities?" He asked in confusion, as his best friend dug a device to spin the bird over the open fire.
While Ty was preparing their meal, Achido was playing a recent game he had downloaded a few days ago. It was a card game, where the player had to collect as many cards as he could to assemble a deck of monstrous beings that had several different types of powers and abilities. The game wasn't all that fun, but it passed time by fairly quick, so he didn't mind playing while waiting for dinner. The teenager glanced up to see Ty messing around with the bird and fire, which instantly caused him to smile wide.
Just when Ty walked over and told him to hold onto her, he quickly gripped the woman's forearm with his hand and the two began to levitate up toward the treehouse. As she lectured him about his training, the teenager just folded his arms and stayed silent for a brief moment. As his feet touched down upon the finished balcony of the treehouse, Ty shook his shoulders and said that she believed in him. It was then that the boy knew he could do better, so he gave his best friend a confident nod before speaking. "You're always right. We should spar after dinner, what do you say? Maybe I can practice that ki thingy you showed me." He said to the woman with the same smile that crossed his face every time they were together.

It was surprising to discover that Achido had an affinity of care for animals, she thought it was cute that he harbored these feelings for life, and she was relieved that he was still an omnivore or else she would feel bad about having to eat the whole raptor bird by herself. Ty had a perplexed look about her face about people using ki for bad reasons even when she fought against Luther he still showed her mercy at the end.
“I haven’t encountered anyone who...was that bad. I think most people have been misunderstood for so long that they only know how to act a certain way, with no one in the world who can understand their pain. No one is born evil right? They become evil due to the circumstances they are forced to grow into.” She sighed but kept a smile, “If given the chance, people can change, and I want to be that change in the world with everyone I meet. You should do the same Achido, listen to the person who is no longer empathetic about making people suffer, deep down inside they can be saved if we treat them with kindness.”
Tiger Lily reflected for a minute, “That is what Cayle said, when I first met him, despite everything he has been through he feels relieved to see a saiyan like me still be able to smile since it is the future he desires for his missing younger siblings. The main reason he is working so hard is so that he can find and save everyone. So we have to work hard, too. No more slacking off and wasting time. We have to remain positively motivated!” She fist pumped into the air quite determined and grateful that she could rely on her best friend to help her become stronger to make everything in the world have a bright future.
“Okay, it has been a while since our last two battles, you need to show me all your cool new moves, Achido. First, we need to finish building the flooring and walls to the tree house before dinner, and after we finish our spar we will have a place to rest comfortably in.”
Ty flew back and forth with piles of flooring that Achido was able to help install the wooden floorboards one plank at a time. With their combined efforts they were done in no time, the electrical was then completed, and the drywall installed to divide the tree house into three small bed rooms on the second floor. The entire first floor was left open concept with the tree’s trunk as the main support beam at the center. All that remained was the furniture which were stored inside DynoCapsules.
“Ah, all this tree house building feels like quite the work out, glad you came over when you did...it might have taken a whole lot longer. So, you have my thanks! You also have your own room, here take these, so you can decorate it before we have our roasted raptor.” Ty handed Achido a case of Dynocaps to choose which furniture he wanted from it. There was a screen on the opposite side of the case that had a holographic catalogue of which furniture designs he wanted, based on the history, Ty had chosen to make her room have Shu ninja look.

With Ty responding to Achido worrying about evil beings with the ability to control ki, he began to feel a bit better after hearing her words. There was something about Ty that had Achido always feeling confident and safe, knowing that she always had a plan to help them. Either way, the worry never really faded, he just accepted the fact that nobody with evil intentions has learned how to control ki or even manipulate it to cause even more damage. The teenage would alway worry, even with Ty by his side, but he had faith that they would overcome anything that stood in their way. "I hope you’re right, Ty. This world needs more people like you.." He said with a smile.
As Ty spoke of Cayle and reminding Achido that she was indeed a saiyan, he looked to her as she finished, but saved the question for later on. As for remaining positively motivated, that would be easy as long as Ty was near. The teenager fed off of her energy and went with it, like the two were connected in some way. "No more slacking off. You’re right! We need to continue training our minds and body for whatever may come in the future. This is our home and I want to keep it safe!" His tone was a bit more serious than usual, but the kid still smiled faintly, before returning the fist bump to Ty.
After a few short hours of hard work and determination, Ty and Achido were able to finish the Treehouse and even add some cool decorations as well. With the news of the teenager getting his own room, his eyes lit up and a large smile swept over his face. He was ecstatic to hear the fact that he was getting his own room in the treehouse, but even more excited that he was sharing it with his best friend! "Oh, sick!! You’re always surprising me with the coolest stuff! Thank you, Ty! I do this stuff because you’re my best friend, I never expected anything in return!" He responded, but gladly accepted the box of DynoCapsules.
With a cool variety of different types of furniture to choose from, Achido went with the basic chill room. A bed, couch, desk, and computer. The human grabbed the capsules and threw them to the ground, causing of quick cloud of smoke to appear along with the new furniture he has chosen. Achido quickly walked to the couch and plopped his butt down, while looking to Ty. He was a bit tired and hungry from all the hard work, so it was nice to sit down somewhere comfortable for a change. The food was beginning to smell delicious, causing Achido to stand up instinctively and begin his way down the tree. "C’mon, Ty! I am starving and the food is smelling awesome!" He announced to the redheaded woman, as he made his way to the ground.

Tiger Lily felt a boost of confidence from her camaraderie with her best friend, it meant her words did not fall on deaf ears, and he was actually focused for a change. After her picked out the furniture from the room, she watched him leap towards the ground, she was certain he was still getting used to heights, but it seemed he also gained a boost of confidence when he landed on the ground effortlessly. The orange haired teen followed closely behind, she popped a DynoCapsule with a complete picnic set, a white and blue gingham pattern sheet, and a basket full of basics utensils. While food did not last inside these capsules, flour, oil, and water were the exception for having a longer shelf life. Combining all three into a bowl she quickly began heating flat bread on the rocks that surrounded the fire pit, once it was all cooked she stacked them up neatly on one plate. With a serrated knife, she cut off two legs off the roasted beast, placing each one a different plate on the picnic blanket on the ground.
Water, bread, and roasted bird was the bare minimum meal for dinner but the sun was still out. The sky was changing from a light blue to an orange hue as the sun was setting on the horizon. The tree house overlooked the ocean but from the ground, the trees were too dense to see past the cliff’s edge. With a simple nod, Ty used a fork to shred the raptor meat, and used the flat bread to make a half sandwich she was smiling as it was properly seasoned despite this being her first time cooking anything.
“I am impressed, this is the first time I cooked anything, and it’s pretty good! Unfortunately, I won’t have too many opportunities to cook, especially since Cayle does that quite a lot with his job, and I am sucker at having to buy meals instead to save time...but out here, in the wilderness, it’s a whole different experience.”
There was a moment of silence as they ate, she was sitting down with her knees up against her chest, making half flat bread sandwiches after another, and the leg alone was enough to keep her full especially after she left nothing but the bones. With a wet cloth, she wiped her face, and hands, and drank her entire water bottle in a couple of gulps.
“Achido...I have been meaning to ask you for a while… but never had the chance to until now. When you kissed me on the lips during our last spar and Cayle punched your lights out after. It meant that you wanted to be more than just friends, right?” Ty paused half pouting as she stared at him, “My mom and dad were childhood friends for a long time and were married at the same age we currently are and they had me in the same year. While it would have been great to do the same and marry my best friend. I am not… interested in doing that right now because I want to train and become a ninja. Cayle is my boyfriend and I am pretty sure I should only be dating him and no one else… so I hope we can still be best friends. I am sorry but I can’t choose, I care about the both of you equally so much that I cannot live my life without either of you, but things are different now... I am having trouble explaining it but I hope you understand.”

As Ty threw a Dyno Capsule at the ground a large picnic set popped out. Achido smiled wide at what he was seeing, especially since this was his first official picnic. The teenager didn't know what to think, he just knew that his belly was growling and it needed food as soon as possible. "This will be my very first time trying Raptor.." He said to the woman, as he looked down to the plate of meat and bread. It looked and smelled delicious, but the teenager was weary of the Raptor meat because it was new to him.
With Achido hesitating to pick up the leg, he grabbed the piece of bread and took a large bite, chewing it up and swallowing it. It was very good, so he grabbed the bone and quickly took a bite from it. His eyes lit up from shock to how good the Raptor leg was. The teen chewed up the meat as fast as he could, before swallowing it down, then repeating the process until the meat and bread were both devoured. "Ty, that was amazing! You should try to cook more often, especially since we'll be out here a bit more." He paused for a minute, as he took a large sip from the water. "Speaking of which, what do you think about Pilaf-land? I have yet to visit anywhere else but here." He nervously admitted to her.
After Ty had asked Achido about the kiss during their last spar, he kind of looked away toward the large tree and smiled faintly. He absolutely wanted to be more than friends, but he knew that she cared for Cayle and that meant that he would have to respect her wishes. "Listen, it doesn't matter what I want right now. What's important is that we stick together as friends and help spread positivity any where we go!" He responded to her the best he could. The teenager wanted Ty to be happy more than anything, so he sucked it up and turned to face her once more.
With the sun descending from the sky and heading down over the horizon, Achido stretched out his arms and yawned a bit. "What do you say we get some rest and see what tomorrow brings us? It has been a long day, especially for you." He said to her, before standing up from their picnic area and smiled down at the redheaded woman. She may have had a boyfriend, but Achido knew deep down that he would treat her better than some saiyan. It was something he kept to himself for the time being, so he ignored his feelings and went on with the situation.

It was a nice feeling knowing that Achido enjoyed the seasoning on meat, especially since it was her first time, and she wanted to cook for him again so she can improve her skills. It seemed they were both tired and sparing after their meal was no viable after all the work that was put into building the tree house. The Magical Kingdom of Pilaf was brought up and she smiled widely she had spent days celebrating her birthday at the theme park and she wanted to go there with him to learn what his favorite attractions and treats were.
“Do you want to go to the theme park tomorrow morning? It will be loads of fun!” She smiled as she began to clean up the picnic area. Then came the moment she had been dreading to bring up for a while since she could not find the words to discuss it with him, they avoided the subject at the wolfgang motorcycle circuit, and have not seen each other since. To her surprise, he handled it pretty well, and he sounded motivated by their everlasting friendship.
“Huh, I am glad you were able to understand, and I think you are the only one who ever will.” She placed a stack of plates down and tackled him into a tight hug, almost dropping him back down to the ground, and she stabilized their footing by embracing him. “I am so happy you’re my best friend. I can do anything with you by my side for the rest of my life.”
Tiger Lily was reluctant to let go of him, as she stared down at him, he was much shorter than she remembered, and she realized she might have had a growth spurt but she wouldn’t dare mention it now. “I guess this means we can spar each other another day. When we do, I am sure you will have plenty to show me, since it’s been so long...since we first met.”

Ty may have told Achido what their status was, but he still felt that there was a chance of them hopefully going on a date in the future. Either way, it was something he didn't want to focus on for the time being, so he smiled as he always does and listened to every word Ty had said to him. With her mentioning a theme park, the teenager couldn't help but feel excited. "A theme park, really?! Ty, do you know how awesome this is?!" He paused for a moment, not allowing Ty to speak up just yet. "I would love to go to a theme park with my best friend! We can get so much food and candy, ride everything in the park twice! Maybe even take a bunch of pictures while we're there!" He could have kept going on, but he didn't want to seem like a complete nerd for theme parks.
Just as Ty began to clean up the picnic area, he gladly helped her out by picking up the styrofoam plates and bottle, placing them into a small garbage bag and setting it aside until they found a proper place for it. Once the redheaded woman began to speak some more, Achido smiled to what she had to say. Hopefully Ty didn't think she ruined anything because Achido would never risk their friendship, especially over some silly feelings he had for her. Before he could respond to anything, Ty quickly hugged him and caused him to almost lose his footing, and fall back onto his bottom. Luckily Ty was able to readjust her footing, then embrace the teenager. Achido's arms instantly wrapped around her, pulling her close and taking in the moment. "Forever, right? I can't lose you, Ty. You are the reason I am out here, the reason I continue to train and make progress. I want to be the best me, just so that we as a team can make this a peaceful planet." He said in a soft tone, as he continued to embrace the woman.
He didn't want to let go, but it only seemed right to pull away with a smile, while staring into the teal eyes of Ty. Achido had to look up just to see them, but he didn't care about his height because his personality made up for everything. "We can spar any time you want! I'm always a phone call away. Speaking of, I told my mom about you and she would really like to meet you sometime! I told her that you're very busy, but I would definitely discuss it with you!" Achido blurted out, as he just remembered about his mother wanting to meet his best friend.
Achido turned to face the treehouse, then to his bike, and back to Ty. "Teach me to fly! Please?! It would save me a lot of time and gas." He announced, as he pointed to his bike with a slight grin upon his face. The teenager was a but jealous that Ty was much stronger than him and that she had known a lot more techniques as well. It was something he had to deal with or push himself past his own limits to become much stronger in a very short amount of time.

“Forever...and always.” Ty smiled genuinely, “You will never lose me if you practice detecting my power level, you can find me anywhere in the world, and I will do the same just to find you.”
Adjusting the black frames of her glasses on the bridge of her nose she reflected on Achido’s parents, “I almost met your parents when my Uncle Toad Lily was taking care of you. I couldn’t call them because your phone broke when we sparred against Cayle, I wanted to let them know you weren’t going home that night. I found your address on your ID, there were too many big trees covering the streets, and houses...and my GPS signal was spinning so I couldn’t find your house…I ended up meeting up with a mage by the name of Kiryu who said he would teach me a few moves in a spar so I can protect myself better against anyone...so I can protect you.”
As time went by Ty released Achido and began to blush realizing she was holding him longer than expected; his gaze was disarming as well. Rubbing the back of her neck nervously she thought about his question on learning to fly. Turning her attention to the subject allowed her to relax as it was something she had trouble learning from the beginning and she could tell her best friend was ready to do it.
“When I learned to fly...it was on accident. It took me a while to control it, feeling weightless still gives you butterflies in your stomach, and I met this rude teenage boy at the Pilaf Land pier who called it Sky Dance Art. Anyways, you focus your ki on your feet, and you just fly. You only have to expend your ki energy once to hover in the air. Here, I will hold your hands, coz whenever I did it, I didn’t know how to stay upright so I was spinning upside down like I was in outer space.”
With a grin, she took each of his hands in hers, and began to hover in the air; her sneakers were about five inches from the ground. She looked down on him again expecting him to nail it because she was all the motivation he needed to get it right on the first try.
