He glared at her jokingly and gumbled, "No fair..."

"But you're right... It wouldn't really be natural. I probably shouldn't have suggested it." He chewed on his lip thoughtfully, then shrugged. He let himself fall, laying down, looking up.

She raised an eyebrow at him, and giggled, giving him his own bush too. She had a tender heart, and couldn't stay mad at someone for long, even if she was just playing around.

"I'm willing to try it, I'm just kind of puzzled how. The way I grow things is taking the essence of the earth and soil, and just pulling it up, every seed has a little trace somewhere, that's how I'm able to do it, so you can see how many something so different would require more abstract thinking. Maybe...if I pulled two seeds together..." She closed her eyes, thinking hard, pulling her hands together, then raising them up.

A bush, with one strawberry and one blueberry sprouted from the ground. She opened her eyes and sighed. "Try one, tell me what they taste like."

He fed himself a couple berries from the bush, happily.

"Try one, tell me what they taste like."

He raised an eyebrow at her,opening his mouth to protest, but shrugged and reached for the bush. Plucking off a strawberry, he stuck it in his mouth, tossing the green top beside him. "...Tastes the same. Interesting that you got them to grow on the same bush, though."

Enelya sighed. "I don't know how to make them taste different, I guess I'm lucky I could get them to grow on the same bush... Too bad I haven't met anyone else who has the same powers as me... I looked at the registar, and there aren't any classes for a person like me..." She looked in the opposite direction. "I don't bother with classes anyways. They are a waste of time. Everything I need to learn is in the library, and there isn't anything that would help me with in the...normal world in some classroom." She crossed her arms, frustrated.

"Giving up already?" He eyed her funny. "You feeling alright? ...Joking aside, you're good, you really are. If anyone can do this, I'm sure you can. It just takes patience and practice. Sometime, if you want, we can sit around and read textbooks together. It's not very exciting, but it'll help. That, or you can study while I practice my aim... He paused and looked to the side, realizing he had never explained to her his other latent ability. He shook it off. "Anyway... Don't give up."

She gave him a fierce, playful, but fierce look. "No, I'm not giving up, just realizing what I'm trying to do. I'm trying to rearrage the DNA in a plant, so that the chemical that triggers our brains saying 'this is a strawberry' changes..." She closed her eyes once again, pulling the feeling of the strawberry and blueberry together, but this time, she tried to imagine the seeds fusing together, once again, a bush with one of each fruit appeared.

"Try it again for me?" She looked hopeful, but stern. Concentration was the key to this little mission of hers.

He shrugged at both her stern response and her request. Plucking the strawberry off the branch, he took a bite out of it again and almost laughed. "Well... you almost go it." He couldn't keep a strait face when saying his next comment. "It doesn't taste like a strawberry at all. Tastes like a giant blueberry... and I gotta admit, it feels kinda weird."

Enelya jumped up and screamed. "I DID IT!" She jumped up and down. "I actually made a strawberry taste like a blueberry! I DON'T BELIEVE IT!" She bent down and plucked the blueberry. "A STRAWBERRY! KOTAH! THE BLUEBERRY TASTES LIKES A STRAWBERRY!!!" She couldn't keep still, she was so proud of herself, she achieved what she thought was impossible.

Kotah laughed on the ground, enjoying her excitement. Clapping at her acomplishment, he said, "You know, we could always try and make some of these and replace real ones at the snack table at the dance... Might mess with people a bit." He was strangly calm and he didn't understand why.

She grabbed his hands in her excitement and pulled him up. "Dance with me!" she urged, not caring how, or who was watching. She twirled and jumped and just enjoyed herself, nodding at what he had said, but not really registering it, with all her euphoric happiness.
