Melani sighed with relief. "So long you don't want to kill me. You see..." She pulled out Mr. Cottontail. "The hunters killed my baby sister and brothers. This is all that was left. As you can imagine, I'm pretty cautious around humans, but I don't blame a who race for a few bad apples."
‘ Oh, I though you were going to leave me out here to burn or something. My whole family are Hunters, but I’m not. The gifted killed my cousins, which is why my family hunts them now. I guess there are just bad* apples on both sides.’ Maybelle let out a sigh of relief.
Melani nodded. "There are always those individuals who are not good, but there are also a lot of individuals who are innocent, but lose their lives because of the mistakes of others." She sighed, and then looked up, seeing the fire growing closer. She shot out another stream of water, and then another, doing her best to keep the fire down
Maybelle watched the water put out the fire in awe. ‘ I have a question. If you can mess with water, can you make rainbows on sunny days?’
Melani nodded. "I can. They're fun to make."
‘ Can you kill fish by taking all the water away from them? If you can mess with water, can’t you just summon it to you whenever you are thirsty? Do you get thirsty? Sorry if I’m asking a lot of questions, I’ve never actually met a live gifted person, only seen the dead bodies.’
"I don't get thirsty, and I guess I could kill fish, but I don't want to. Besides, I turn into water." She laughed
‘ You turn into water? Can you die if you are water? When you are water, can you fit into a water bottle?’ Maybelle asked, eyes wide.
"Um...I don't know..."
