"that makes more sense and yeah we gotta hurry up if we don't want to get scolded again" said Hidaka and run, leaving the two behind, Khai got struck by a stray spell or so it was.
Cody almost run when Khai flinched. "W, what's wrong?" Cody asked Khai, "I don't . . .know" Khai replied, Cody's so shock to see khai's face. Khai has a long darkblue hair,same cold eyes,a lot longer eyelashes, and a girly face.
"Huh? What's wrong with you?" Khai asked like he didn't notice his long hair and body shape that changed in seconds. "K, Khai?!, You're a girl!!!" Cody yelled.
"Yeah, I think so too" Khai look at himself. A guy with a cyan hair comes closer to them and said "We're sorry, we were planning to change that guy" he pointed at the other guy with brown hair in their group, "into girl but he evaded and you cought the spell by accident".
[Lie]
" It's fine, it's no big deal,please excuse us, we might got late and scolded by sensei" Khai excused and grab Cody's arm and drag him along. The guy who turned him into a girl was the guy who was beaten by Khai on student council comity, that explains why Khai doesn't want to stay any longer.
Cody stared at Khai non stop because of Khai's cuteness, Khai's height is perfect for a girls height, added with his cute and girlish looks it's quite unbelievable to tell that he was a guy in the first place.

It's 8:30
On their room,
Hidaka pretended to be asleep on his seat. The two seated on their seats and acted like nothing happened. "Hey Hidaka,if somehow...Khai turned into girl...will you still accept him as a team?" Cody asked because Hidaka hated girls from the start.
Hidaka lift his head up and asked "why?" He then look at the person behind Cody (Khai) and said coldy "who's she?,a transfer student?" . Khai look at Hidaka,it's like seducing him on Hidaka's prospective.
Cody coldsweated when Hidaka acted coldly at him again. Cody pointed at Khai and stutters "T,that's Khai " .
"Oh..." Hidaka said uninterestedly.
Khai look at him the same way as he look at him from the very beginning, "Do you hate girls?" Khai asked Hidaka straightforwardly.
"Yeah." A blunt and short reply from Hidaka and then pretended to be asleep again.
The way those two talk was like a clown to clown conversation, unbelievable yet understandable. Chika finally came at exactly 8:00 on the morning.
"Since everyone's here now,line up and I'll lead the way to our scheduled bus" Chika said and leave their room in line as they stay quiet the whole time.
On the front of the bridge that connected the water majician's territory and Colíne's school was a bunch of bus waiting for them to come. They fit perfectly on the bus, it has ten groups of three bus chairs.
Their way was not rocky at all, it's the total opposite of a bumpy ride, unlike the fire majician's lair the road was hot and Burning;it's smooth and drenched by clean water.
They were all given a map, one per a team, and informations like 'the smaller the sea creature the smarter they are;the bigger the sea creature the more they rely on instinct'.
On the hot spring,
Chika showed them their room, it has three beds, one kitchen and one bathroom, girls are on the other inn that cost almost a million yen while boys got the cheaper one, since they don't care what or where it is as long as the hot spring is free they're fine.
On Khai, Hidaka, and Cody's room,
Cody pick the bed on the middle, Khai pick the one on the right, and Hidaka pick the one on the left. Minutes of silence was wasted until... "Aaaargh!!! I can't stand this anymore!!! Can't you guys speak atleast once?!!" Cody was anxious at first then got mad at the silence of those two.
" Sorry, if (Khai) Hidaka is mad because of me then I'll leave you two here" Khai and Hidaka said at the same time.
" Ah! Sorry I'll go first" The two said again and stand up at the same time.
" (Eh?) You go first" Then again they both said at the same time.
"Oh, okay" they both said and about to walk towards the door when two trees rushed to them then capture them.
"Cody?" Khai and Hidaka asked what's going on. " YOU TWO!,STAY HERE! I'M THE ONE LEAVING, GODDANMIT!" He got mad at them for not fighting nor getting along,he thinks it's frustrating. Cody walks away.
Since Khai and Hidaka loves nature the most,they can't bring themselves to cut the tree if it's not a spar or a fight.
". . .so,what's the matter with me being a girl?" Khai asked bluntly. Hidaka can't bring himself to look at Khai in a form of a girl, so he answered without looking " it's because. . .forget it ,..." Hidaka looked down, "sorry I was being selfish, I already know that you're a guy yet... Haist," Hidaka can't explain it using words.
Khai didn't show any expression about a thing he said and just tickles the tree that caged him, later on Khai escaped and walk toward the wardrobe and pick clothes that's suppose to be for boys to wear.
she took the first towel and the scissors on the drawer then look at a mirror, she cut her hair the same as she cut it on her room at Colíne's estate. she then rip her thin blanket to use it to cover her chest to make it smaller. She put on an oversized shirt and the short then came back to Hidaka.
"Khai?!" Hidaka was dumbfounded to see the same Khai(girl) that transformed to a boy again. "Better now?" Khai open his arms to let Hidaka see the same guy on a girls body.
Hidaka smiled again with the same kind and gentle smile he's been showing to Khai before saying "yeah,much better, you look a lot better in a boy's body" . "Good to hear it" Khai said with an indifferent look and tickles the tree where Hidaka is caged in.
"I thought you'd look like a slut forever" said Hidaka. "First you compliment me and now diss me,please made up your mind" Khai said with the same look on. Hidaka broke free thanks to Khai and now on his bed preparing for a bath to the hot spring.
