All right, it looked like X-oshi was ready to show her his stuff. He nodded to her briefly and seemed to be searching for something. That raised Hawthorne's curiousity just a titch. Apparently she as about to see something very cool.
He tossed the rock he found a couple times, and Thorny was a little disappointed. That wasn't very exciting. Then he threw it away. Her eyes widened in surprise as she followed his from at a dead run, and disappears instead of falling. The rock disappeared to. She looked all over, until both the boy and the rock appear across from eachother in midair.
X-oshi performed a very impressive aerial manuever, while the rock came pelting in his direction. She clapped in excitement when he caught the rock, and was quickly set off-balance again as the boy holding the rock disappeared again.
She looked around frantically, finally looking up as he reappeared, somewhere quite a bit above her head. She smiled and clapped. He was rather impressive! She was a little frightened for him as he plummeted toward the ground. As he was about to make contact, she closed her eyes, terrified of what was about to happen.
Still, there was no thud and she peeked between the fingers of her hands, which she had raised to hide her face. The boy, sweating profusely, was walking towards her. He sat and crossed his legs, and, still looking astonished, she moved to sit beside him.
"So, that was tight huh."
"That was . . . unbelievable. I've never seen anything quite that cool before. How did you learn how to do that?"
