Since they were only amongst themselves, Steven had not hidden his birthmark, and his Dragon on his right wrist was now practically golden.
Cassy caressed his mark and said to him, "You're almost there, soon you'll be able to break my mother's seal and use all your powers... When that happens, I'm guessing that the spiritual energy will try to rush into your body to help you evolve, so if that happens don't forget to ask your red flame to give you a hand in dealing with this huge flow of spiritual energy."
Steven then placed his forehead against Cassy's and he grabbed her waist to sit her on his lap.
He then said to her, just before drinking another bottle of purifying water she had just given him, "Thank you, sweetheart, I will follow your advice when the time comes, I promise!"
After Steven had drank the purifying water that Cassy had given him he frowned and asked her, "This isn't yours, isn't it?"
