"Yeah, like I'd listen to you." She grumbled. "However, I wasn't trained to attak the innocent. Unless I have solid proof you're safe. For now." She said. "I know from experience that having a parent who's half dragon doesn't make you a dragon, but if you are, I will find out." She said darkly. After her failure of letting her sister go at their last encounter she was punished severely and she would NOT let any dragon slip through her fingers ever again.
"Yes." She sadi slightly ashamed. "I've never tested it, but my mother says it's something all master waterbenders can do. She doesn't want me to use iot for anything less of a dire emergency, and I won't. I just wanted to scare him." She said shrinking down. She, like her mother, did not approve of bloodbending and would only ever use it if her, or someone else's life, depended on it.

William shrugged. "I'd say that's a wonderful manipulation of water, but I'm not that impressed." He gestured to his coat and pack. "Why, just on me, I havemore than half a dozen devices that could do the same thing, let alone those which could stop you, put you to sleep, obliterate buildings. In my line of work, controlling people isn't special." He cracked his neck. "But like I said, I don't have any reason to fight you. I'm just a little lost right now." He folded his hands behind his head and walked past the two water-manipulating girls. "Anyone know where I can get a map?"

"You'll be watching a long time then." Rob said. Eyes shifted to Veronica, and he allowed a shrug when she yelled. Afterwards he kept walking, but hadn't responded to the ... blood bending topic. He wasn't knowledgeable at all as far as that went, but it honestly grossed him out a bit.
"Kid you've got a better plan than us... Our first line of action was to find ice cream." he allowed a rare smile, surprisingly charming in comparison to the usual mug he wore, but it'd disappeared quickly afterwards. He'd reached the shop, and hand closed around the door, pulling to open. He'd stopped, intending to wait for the other's to come and keep the door open for them, but was surprised to see a girl there already.

Yvette turned as she heard the door open. She furrowed her brow and placed her hand on her hip as she pushed the empty ice cream barrel along the counter. "You staring at me, boy? What are you doing just standing there?" She stood up. She had to admit that it was nice to know there was someone else on the island. "Well, don't just stand there. What's your name?"

A look of surprise crossed Lien's face when Kaya mentioned bloodbending. Her blue eyes snapped from the 'boy genius' to her sister. Katara had taught her bloodbending, but Lien had refined it. Her mother had warned her about the dangers of the technique but Lien was curious about what she could do with the technique. It still shocked her that Kaya knew how to bloodbend as well.
"Mom taught you bloodbending?" she asked in slight awe.

"I'm not staring..." he replied indignantly, giving the girl a skeptical stare. He hadn't in all honestly, but odds were that she wouldn't believe him. Regardless, he didn't care. Giving a glance to the others he determined they were taking this at their own pace, and he stepped into the building, letting the door close behind him with a soft muffled noise.
"Rob." he said simply, shoving his hands in his pockets and standing there with a slouch, indifferent look on his face as green eyes inspected the girl, waiting for an answer or some sort of response.

"Well, then, why were you standing there?" Yvette sat down, leaning backwards against the counter. "Well, I guess it doesn't matter. My name's Yvette Stoppable. I just sort of waltzed into this place... whatever this place is... And I mean this freaky town place." She shook her head. "I have no idea what's going on or where this place is. Things just seem kinda nuts to me. You live here?"

"I'll wait however long it takes. " She said darkly, entering the ice cream parlor.
"Yeah," Kaya said. "She taught it to me because I'm the oldest and she thought I was ready. I just don't like knowing something like that." She said half-heartedly. "Knowing that you could control anybody or anything you wanted by lifting a finger. Some people like that kind of power, but to me it just seems weird."

Veronica sighed as nobody seemed to be paying attention to her again. It was really hurting her feelings. She decided to just go into the ice cream parlor. Maybe she could carve a few sorbet garnishes or something to make her feel better, if two gallons of rocky road ice cream didn't do it.

"Nah." Rob shook his head when Yvette asked if he lived here. He'd taken a seat at the counter by the girl, resting his arms straight out on the surface in front of him and twisting a single silver ring on his right pinky.
"I dunno what this place is. None of us do." he shrugged, jerking a thumb over his shoulder at the door, which no doubt if one looked out the window they'd see the group of kids. "Doesn't seem so bad to me." he admitted blandly.

"It doesn't have to be all about that." Lien said "I tried using it for healing and it works like a charm."
Lien had only used bloodbending for healing purposes a couple of times, like when Gyatso had broken his leg falling out of a tree, it meant she could heal faster and with less fuss. Her mother hadn't been to happy with her using it but Lien was determined to try and put the skill to good use. Why learn it if she couldn't use it for something?

Yvette noticed the two girls who walk into the ice cream parlor. She raised an eyebrow. "Well, well, looks like I found the local high school hang out." She smirked. "However, if none of all you live around here, then what are you doing here? What am I doing here?"
She examined her nails a moment, before looking at the girls directly. "So, you two with Mr. Stick-in-the-mud, here? Or do you have names?"

Lien looked from Kaya to Yvette and tried her best not to smile, she could just imagine the nicknames her Aunt Toph would think up for Rob
"I'm Lien." she introduced herself "And we are with Rob."
She approached the counter and sat on the other side of Rob. She had no clue what to do next as she'd never been to an ice-cream parlour before...she'd never eaten ice-cream either for that matter.

"You can do that?" She asked. "I mean... I geuss I never thought of it like that before. I always figured it could only be used for bad, destruction and things like that. But I geuss it has other purposes. I geuss this how dad felt when he learned firebending after he burned mom." She said thoughtfully."I've never had a need to use it, really. I have never been in dire danger."
At the girls question she nidded. "I'm Kaya, this is my sister Lien. And Yeah we're all here together" she said.
Julleitte decided to sit down near the rest of them, putting considerable distance between her and what she thought was the dragon. "I'm Julliette." She said with a slight smile, finally taking off her mask.

Veronica nodded to the black girl sitting in the parlor. "Well, I'm with the two girls in blue. The boy doesn't seem to think he's with anyone." She pouted and folded her arms. She looked around the parlor. "And this place looks pretty empty of people besides our group and you." She held her hand out. "Speaking of which, my name's Veronica Stoppable."
