And this fire will guide you home...

It's hard to keep count when you're posting with an iPod...

Anne rumbled softly - though not agressively, at Yumiko's rather obnoxious challenge. "I coul' beatya with my eyes closed." the comment about her height did not deserve a reply, after all, Leah was shorter than both of them.

She gave an indignified yelp at the sharp pain in her ear, and stood shock still for a moment as Yumiko took the lead. The blonde's eyes narrowed on the reatreating back of her adversary, and she released a wild whoop as she surged forward with all the power of a steam engine.

She was already tired, she'd been traveling for the last day, but she'd been training long enough - ! She was aware of every straining muscle, of every breath. Trees blurred past her vision in slow motion, tree, river, rocks, algea, standing out and blurring together simultainously. This hyperawareness was her special brand of "meditation".

As Yumiko paused, Anne drew even with her hindquarters. "Tired already Granny?" There was no bite to her words, only an intense joy - there could be no cruelty during a race, the rules if survival did not apply here.

Leah was a short distance behind them. The older girl was a endurance runner rather than a sprinter. Given half a chance, Leah could probably run both blondes into the ground and have energy left to mock them at the end, but by comparison, she wasn't very fast, not very fast at all.
