"Oh, I'm sorry!" they apologize, straightening their clothing. It is a female no older than your sister, with white hair and deep blue skin
"No, it's ok," you say.
"Are you okay?" Flashfire asks. "Why were you running?"
"I was jogging as a part of my exercise," she says. "My name is Lilium, what's yours?"
"I'm Flashfire," you sister says. "This is Nuh, Blackfire, and my brother, Saffire," she introduces each of you, pointing to you in turn.
"What are you exercising for?" Blackfire asks.
"I'm going to be in the Girls' Lightweight Fighting Tournament!" Lilium says cheerfully. "Are you?"
"Yes," Flashfire answers. "Same divison, too!"
"Oh, wow!" Lilium's orange eyes widen. "Maybe we could exercise together?"
"Sure!" Flashfire says. "Is that okay with everyone else?"
"Of course it's alright," you say. "We can even follow you to where you were jogging to."
"Ok!" Lilium says. "But you have to promise to jog there!"
"We promise," Flashfire says as she smiles.
The five of you jog together in single file, Lilium leading the way.
The path she takes weaves up and down several small streets for several minutes before stopping at the "Robust Wreckers" gym.
