Pico:we,ll see…*Pico then put his arm out to block it which he did*see….to easy

Cole:*smiles* very good son however it seems you didn't see what was next*he then rushed into Pico as he landed into the ice as he tried to gain his footing sending his son into a wall*oop…you alright boy? I didn't mean to hit you so hard.

*Pico rubs his head while smileing*
Pico:Arcane flame!*fire surrounds his body melting the ice that was behind him* oh im fine.

Cole: good. *he then readies his hands and fires several lightining bolts at him*

Pico:(oh shit..)
*Pico jumps out of the way makeing the electricity hit the puddle behind him*
Pico:(that…would of stung abit)*he then gave his father a serious look*…its go time*he then apeared in front of his father and started to punch and kick repeatively makeing Cole defensive and blocking every hit*

Cole:(impressive son, your actually not giving me an inch…)*smiles as he dodges one of Pico's blows and grabs his arm and puts his hand in front of him. for a moment everything goes quiet.* welp time to end this…*energy focuses within his hand and out of it comes a ball of water splashing Pico in the face.*chuckles* got ya. ah,*backs away* but hey I suppose I should start taking this seriously. I mean I don't even think you've seen me power up at least once. I been playing with basic magic the whole time.*he then pauses for a moment as if to concider something* …ah what the heck I'm sure you can withstand it.*he closes his eyes for but a moment and then opens them. Nothing seems to have changed with him however a the air kind of feels and tastes funny.* Alright. let's do this, round 2. *he then says something under his breath. *Ready to start when you are son.

Pico:(i gotta be careful…)
*Picos eyes went yellow as his aura changed as well* bring it!

Cole: alright…*vanishes and reappears behind him* don't say I didn't warn you*vanishes before Pico could turn around and reappers in front of him*unleashes a barrage of blows that already puts Pico on the defence*

*Zot halls*
Zack:*roaming the halls* (if I were a ticked off hegdehog, where would I be?)

*as Zack roams the halls, he feels his phone rumble and growls, annoyed; he then pulls it out to find a message from Val*

Val: “we gotta talk.Alone. if you could come to our office in 5…?”

Pico:(ok i can do this)*to Coles suprise Pico closed his eyes as he blocked every hit untill Cole teleported behind him*Their!*he then kicked Cole sending him to nearby wall*(…oops)

Zack:...“sure. see you soon.”*sends to Val. he then open a second text to Frank and heads to the office he then stops before turnng down the hall and makes a third text and proceeds to head down and knock on the office door*(where do I start…I suppose a hello would be a good start, however this is not really the time for that plus I still need to hunt for snow and straighten his head out. Well, that's what Frank's for. he should get the point across.)*he then hears the knob turn and click. and awaits the door to open*

*Elsewhere in a Zot fitting room*

Joseph: I still don't understand why you haven't given back my armor yet…
Frank:simple really, its*hears something rumble*one second *closes his visor to look at the message*
Zack:“Frank went to see Val. your incharge of the Snow job…heheheheheehhehhh ah…seriously though make sure you get the point across and please make sure Anita is ok after. -Zack”
Frank:*sigh* he never makes it easy…change of plans kiddo. I can't watch you on the catwalk, So Im putting a few of my troop to work and watch.
Joseph:…I see no one.
Frank:that's how you know they're doing their job. Anyway, take care.*speeds out of the room*

*Zot halls 7th floor*
Rupert:*watching his wife work with the others on Claire when he recives a text*
Zack:“in an hour I need you to text my phone if you hear nothing back after 20 min. get backup and head upstairs to the living area wing by Snow's office-Zack”*sighs*(of course you'd choose me. who else has nothing better to do. Till that time though, I wish to see if they can do it.)*goes back to watching.*(hmm seems that they're getting close to being done.)

*Zot training area*
Cole:…ow.*picks himself out of the wall*that hurt son. it really did. *he started to laugh the air started to swril and faint colors could be seen* you really have come far, you did good for a warmup. *he dashes in andlays a faster barrage on Pico as he pushes his son the air thickens almost as if its being filled by something*

Pico:(i..i can hardly breathe in here…i dont know what you are planning father….*he then grinned* but i cant wait to find out) its go time!*Pico then started to gather energy in both his hands*AURA…BLAST!

*the blast clears the air, however it doesn't go far only pushing it back a few dozen feet. it does however alow Pico to see what he's dealing with the whole room is filled in this and yet his father is able to stand here and breathe in it no problem. why was that?*
Cole:not bad son, you created an enterance, or rather empty a small bubble to breathe and stopped me from coming at you.*he gets back into position letting Pico take in the fresh air, he readies his hands as if readying for a spell* you good to continue?

*Pico apeared behind Cole*
Pico:yep…*Pico fired a aura sphere at Coles back completely suprisinng the hedgehog he then apeared back in his breathing space*(i really hate fighting this way but somthings telling me if i fight fair against a enemy i might endager the people i care about…)

Cole: (he's learning…good)*he then fires several fireballs at Pico following up with a bolt of lightining.*

Val: *opens the door and leans against the frame in a posture of someone who's been broken, looking at the ground to hide her red eye corners* Sorry to disturb you, but Doc won't answer his phone and from what I heard last, Frank was with him, so the next one to think about showing this was you.
Zack: Showing what?
Val: *simply reaches out with her left and shows him the object on her flat palm speechless; it's a simple, polygon-y silver ring, the exact counterpart to the one on the ring finger of her hand*

Zack:(…oh. its one of those things. yeha its a good thing Doc isn't around to take this. He would have flipped, or worse.) Alright, if you could, I would to you to tell me what exactly happened.

*Pico makes a shield and blocks the fireballs but then jump out of the way from the lightning*
Pico:not gonna work old man!*Pico gatherd fire in his hands*DEMONIC FLAME!

* the flames make contact with Cole however it turns out that what it hit wans ani llusion then he hears a voice from above*
Cole: who are you calling old?!*from above several blasts of Ice are fired down towards him & his little spot*

Pico:(just as i expected…)*Pico summoned a flame around his body which melted the ice on impact he then gave his father a emotionalist look for afew seconds until he started to laugh*hahahahaha!

Cole:*tries to keep a serious face, but can't and starts laughing too* oh look at us. I never thought I would see the day we would be doing this. I'm happy…*he then starts to settle*

Pico:heh yeah*the fox then powered down*(man i wasted alot more energy then i thought)…uh call it a draw?..*he then sweatdropped*

Cole:…sure son. im kind running of low on juice.*the mysterious thick colors start to recede and slowly form around cole* course that's what happens when you blanket the whole area in your aura. *the aura then fades and the air is clear once more* Anyway you did well.*he goes over and wraps him arm around his son* I'm proud of you.

Pico:*Pico laughs nervously Cole then stopped hugging him*thanks for the spar pops but now i gottacheck up onJill or the very least get her lazy butt upheh heh…

Cole: oh yes of course, your sister. (an odd one that girl is.) If its alright son I'd like to tag along for this.

Pico:well alright*the 2 head towards Gregs place* *KNOCK! KNOCK! KNOCK!*

Greg:*opens the door. its clear on his face that he hasn't gottne much sleep*…yes?

Pico:oh dude you look terrible….(does she snore or somthing?) uh i came here to check up on Jill but if you need more rest we could come back later

Greg:*yawns* Jill? oh, yeha. she's over there on the couch. …sleeping. your welcome to come in if you like.

*Pico in a instant apearednext tothe couch with a mischivous grin and acup of water inhis hand*
Pico:hey Jill wake up
Jill:hmm…? 5 more minutes
Pico:*his grin now looked evil*fine have it you're way*Pico then poured the water on her face and started to run as Jill gavechase*
