Where was the nearest tree?!

The wind whipped hard just then, and Sierra's feet nearly came out from underneath her. Just at that time, she saw Vivi toss a rope back, and Sierra just knew it was attached to that tree Vivi was latched to.

She grabbed a hold of it, relief washing through her. She braced herself, waiting for the wind to go by while she was safely latched to the tree. THEN... Oh, my MERRRRRRLIN, the rope wasn't attached to anything? Her feet went out from underneath her, and she landed hard on her bottom. The wind skipped her across the ground until...

SMACK!

Sierra face-planted into Vivi Branxton's legs.

Perfect. Just perfect.

Vivi had nearly made it to the tree, her arms outstretched and aching to just cling to something that wouldn't fly away, when something very solid hit the back of her legs and catapulted her forward. Her arms were no use, despite being outstretched, and Vivi face-planted into the rough barked tree.

OUCH.

She crumpled to the ground, blinded by the sand and rain and the dancing stars that formed from the knock to the head, and she wasn't even able to appreciate how her robes weren't picking up any damp sand from the ground beneath her. Too bad... it was a rather impressive spell.

Whatever had struck her was now laying heavily across her legs, and Vivi struggled half-heartedly to free herself. As the professor ceased the storm around them, Vivi was only able to see for the first time who had hobbled her... Sierra Greingoth. If the girl had looked a bit less miserable, she'd be infuriated at her, but as it would, Vivi wriggled around and put a comforting hand on top of the girl's head.

Sort of comforting. "Get off me."

A dribble of water ran between Vivi's eyes, and she swiped at it, her hand coming away red. Oh, hmm. Was someone bleeding? And why did storms give a girl such a headache?
