Howl's Moving Castle

Jade smiled " this is wonderful , thank you" she kissed his cheek lightly and like a giddy child went over to explore

Howl smiled brightly and closed the door, and bwoke Evelyn up, "come on. Time to train." He said and she dragged herself out of bed. Howl showed her to an expansive area. He then lifted his arm a little and a small tree grew. "Make a tree grow."
"Um okay." She said and concentrated and did the same with ease.
He then made his tree huge like a grand sequoia, 300 feet up.
With more effort she did so.
"Now bend the tree."
"Bend it?" She asked.
He nodded, "Like a wind, bend, but do not break it."
She nodded uncertainly and did so, conjuring a wind and blew it against the tree but it creaked and didn't move.
"Keep going, I will be making breakfast, I will know when you have done it." He said and left her behind the new door, and went inside to see if Cal had awoken.

Cal rolled over on the couch and fell on the floor and woke with a start " oowwwwww floooorrrr" he groaned




Jade found things to do and create , once she got started she couldnt stop it was blissful

"Yes, that is a downfall of being human." Howl chuckled then helped Cal up. "come on, help mewith brreakfast she's going to be as hungry as a cow after training."

Cal laughed lightly and rubbed his head " how do you stand it?" he asked " having a body like this i mean " he finished as he started to help cook

Howl contemplated the question, and shrugged, "Its just something we grow into I guess. You'll get used to it. That is if you don't back sooner."

Cal shrugged "i like this form its very nice"

"Im glad, she used a lot and quite powerful magic to make you like this. I'm sure she cares about you a great deal." He said and helped serve up the food. "go get Evelyn and ill receive jade." He said leaving to the the garden with the craft cottage.

Cal nodded and went to get her " hey evelyn food, also i think i wanna give you a nickname is that okay??"



Jade sat in the workshop what she was working on was a book , she had sown the pages together and put them in a hard cover and was writing in it already

Evelyn huffed deeply, she had gotten nowhere in bending the tree, "Sounds great, I'm starving. Wait a nickname?" She blushed though it wasn't recognizable through her flushed cheeks fromthe excercise, "Sure, that sounds fun."

Howl popped his head in, "Looks like you've been having fun."

Cal nodded " i thought eve fits and its kinda easier and fast " he said stumbling over his words


Jade looked up " i made a journal , to record my adventures with the great wizard howl and his friend the fire demon Calsifer, the warm hearted" she smiled and laughed lightly

"Cute, just like how everyone calls you Cal. Come on, I'm hungry." She said taking his hand.

Howl laughed deep heartedly, "Sounds amazing. I'm sure we'll have many adventures."

Cal smiled " glad you like it , i helped make lots of food"

Jade smiled and picked it up,'i have already got the intro, of how we met and whats happened up to right now " she stood and went over to him " if you want you can read it " her stomach decided to interupt with a loud grrouwlw sound and she started to laugh

"Good, then you three may get a bite." Evelyn laughed.

Howl smiled, "Maybe after we eat."

Cal laughed " thats funny , im sure we cooked plenty for you to have and for us" he poked her lightly


Jade nodded " yeah , food sounds good"

Evelyn giggled, "We'll just see about that."

Howl returned to the castle, with Jade.

CAl smiled and dished evewryone up putting more on to Evelyn's plate and looked up when howl and jade entered " oh hey birdies" he teased


JAde laughed " birdies huh?" she shook her head lightly

Evelyn giggled before scarfing down the food like a starved child.

"Tweet twet." Howl chuckled and sat down and forked down a bite, "MMm. exquisite as always Cal, how do you do it?"

CAl raised an eyebrow and said with a smirk " many year of watching you cook... and giving me disgusting left overs ... figured i could make things taste better" the smirk stayed on his face , he knew that was quite the insult but it was also a tease

Jade looked at howl with wide eyes but stayed quiet

Howl raised an eyebrow and smirked, "Well I have to help Evelyn train more after lunch, and Jade will be working, so I think that leaves the dishes for you." Howl challenged. Giving Jade a discreet wink.

CAl humphed " stuck with working again , you are suck a big meany howl" he got up and grabbed the empty plates frowning


Jade burst into laughter

Howl swirled his finger lightly in the air and the dishes removed themselves from Cal's hands and began washing themselves. He gave Jade a look that said, 'I know I'm a jerk, but I'm a sucker for kids."
Evelyn snickered as she watched this.

CAl glared at howl " you are insufferable , yes i know what that means"

JAde continued to laugh " oh you two are so funny"

Howl chuckled at Jade's comment.
Evelyn giggled, "You're quite attractive when you're angry and flustered Calcifur."

Cals face turned a brighter shade than the color he was when he was still just a fire and he turned around and shuffled away embarrassed

Jade giggled lightly " how much more training for today is there?"
