a mother's protection spell

A day in the life

Raven took a step back in obvious shock. "What's next?" Raven looked at the smug cinder and glared. "Next, is something different. Flying." Cinder looked curious and said. "What?" Raven smirked and then started hovering with a gust of wind. 'uh, zarathos? can we fly?' 'NOT THAT I AM AWARE OF, YOUNG FALL, BUT WE NEED TO DO SOMETHING' Cinder was nervous, as this was something that could ruin her only remaining lie with raven. 'okay, think cinder, you're clever. lying is in your blood just like my semblance... wait?... my semblance!!!' Cinder focused on her mind scape and as she reunited with her criminally underused semblance she realized something was different.

Her body was surrounded by weird orange sparkling bands. She recognized them after a minute of looking at them 'glyphs! just like that schnee girl used! what did doctor ooblek say?... ah ha! glyph semblanceses are rare and can be experimented with to marvelous degrees if the user can be as sharp as a blade with them' Cinder then moved them with her glowing hands and a band took shape beneath her, and her semblance turned it into glass, and hovered up to raven wobbling a little but stood confidentially, red scarf flowing heroically in the wind, as cinder flared her eyes up and grinned at the clearly flummoxed raven.

"That's not flying!" Cinder put her hand upon her hip and made a show of checking her nails on her other hand. And blowing on them like she'd seen in all those dumb movies that shasta made her watch, a mean girl classic as she had put it when torturing cinder in their time at beacon. "Heh, what's wrong spring? You jealous of my pyro kinetic skills to pay the bills?" That made raven grind her teeth angrily. "Now then, Catch!" Cinder said flying her glass disc at raven and raven looked shocked and got hit by her as raven fell cinder made a show of making an umbrella and floating down gently as was seen in a film her and neo liked.

All while raven hit the ground with a mighty *THUD* Cinder landed and disintegrated the umbrella and bowed. "Alright. That's enough for today. I need to come up with a better training method." Raven got up cracked her back, and walked away. "Hahah, that was fun! Can't wait for next lesson Raven sensei!" Raven glared over her shoulder at cinder and grumbled as she left. Cinder smiled and actually skipped away a fare bit of distance. But stopped getting a weird feeling and she said. "Alright, come out." *CRASH* and with that came surprisingly just her daughters and not their two friends.

"Wow, that was so cool!" Exclaimed emerald, and ruby said. "Yeah! You floated on glass with those weird circles!" Neo just ran up and hugged cinder like she would disappear. "Ooof, hey kiddo, what's up?" Neo pulled back and signed nervously. [can i not hug my mother just because i love her?] That made cinder smile and she embraced neo in a warm hug. And whispered in her ear so only she could here. "You can hug me whenever you want. I love you more then most things in this world." She felt neo start shaking and hug her tighter. Cinder smiled and signaled for the other two to hug as well.

The other two joined and cinder used a very light controlled version of her old semblance to warm her arms and gave the girls a toasty warm hug. They all sighed content. And left the warm embrace and cinder looked at all the other girls, and followed what her new secret book on parenting said. "Do you girls want to do something fun today? We can do whatever you want." The girls looked shocked and joined a huddle and after the murmuring of two voices and the wild gesturing of one they came back and ruby stepped forward. "We request training instruction by you." Cinder smiled and shook her head, it would appear that these were indeed the girls she raised.
"Okay then, assemble everyone at once." The girls all communicated. ""[Okay!]"" And left to assemble the team.

"Alright then the goal of today's exercise is to remove three red cloth sashes off of my arm. I won't be using anything supernatural on you. Just me and my skills. Go!" They all looked toward neo who gave them signs. And they all nodded, and ran full force at cinder. "Going straight at me? That's stupid and stubborn!" And cinder threw a punch at neo who was in the lead but instead of connecting with the ice cream themed girl, it was met with a *CRASH* and suddenly all the kids shattered. "Oh shit!" Cinder then noticed the blue sky change into black as pitch. And heard some kind of music like an ice cream truck but slowly and eerily long tuned.
