April 17, 2026 at 10:19 AM
Angela, Leah, Mya went off sight seeing while Hela, Astrid and Bella went exploring the stores and clinics Astrid and Bella were looking at clothes and accessories while Hela was showing off and teaching her healing abilities to the healers of Allura and threatened them to make sure they share what she taught them with the other healers and as for Dragon, Magnus, Jack and Eric they were walking through the city streets playing with their new lightning magic
As lightning was crackling from their fingers a blonde boy with green eyes who looked nervous approaching boys his age with lightning coming off their hands and Dragon asked "Can we help you?" and he introduced himself saying his name his Aaron and told them if they could help them with something and Dragon didn't sense any hostility from him so he agreed to come with him and he took them to a strange looking machine and Aaron asked Dragon "How much lightning can you generate because I need a power source for my air craft."
Dragon rubbed his hands together and generated lightning and focused it into the air craft and it began to move and Aaron said "It's working." "How does it fly?" Magnus asked and Aaron told them that this craft had four spinning blades place on top of each other and they spin in different directions creating a tight column of air that grants it the ability to fly and when Aaron jumped into it he managed to control and asked the rest of them to hop on and when they did he flew the craft up high and flew it pass the tall buildings and the four of them were absolutely loving this flight
During their flight Dragon remembered Hela and the others and told Aaron that there were others they needed to meet up with them and that's is pretty much everything up to that point and Hela and other girls were silent for a moment before asking for a joyride and Aaron told them that this air craft only fits five people including himself
So as they took turns joyriding in Aarons air craft Hela asked Dragon "So are we going to invite another member to travel with us?" And Dragon told her "Actually I did forward a invitation to him but he didn't give an answer yet." And Hela just said "Well not everyone wishes to leave their homeland but he hasn't made a decision yet so I guess we'll wait and see what he decides, now when can I get back in that air craft my last joyride was too short?"
After an entire day of air craft joyrides the ten of them and Aaron spend the night in the warehouse where he kept his air craft and when ask why he wasn't sleeping in his home and he just said "It's not like anyone is gonna notice I'm gone." and they didn't asked any more question and they all fell asleep and the next morning when they woke up Dragon and Hela found Aaron wide awake and working on his air craft and looked like he was missing a tool and they offered their help and he told them he needs a blow torch, a device that focuses fire too use to weld metals together and Dragon used his two fingers as a blow torch and following Aarons guidance began welding and the ten of them watches and follow Aarons instruction and spend the entire morning learning Allura grade machine craft
"I have had a lot of free time on my hands for a long time I think ever since I was ten years old so I guess two years now." Aaron explained after Magnus asked how long he has been working with machines and before he can asked about his family Dragon interrupted him asking "So is your air craft here the only thing you've built and if so what other machines do you plan on building and can we help build them?" Aaron with a smile "Yes, yes and yes."
Hela pulled Magnus aside and told him "We have known this guy for two days and here's what we learnt he spends all his alone in this place and has no expectation of anyone coming to check up on him so I don't think he has solid relationship but it's to early to tell if it's bad enough for him want to leave so and besides Dragon already offered him an invitation to join us and he didn't give an answer yet so lets just wait, ok?"
While Aaron was showing off his book filled with designs for future machines and crafts Magnus asked Dragon what he said when asking Aaron to join their Arcane gang and Dragon told him "You were in the air craft when I asked him to join us didn't you hear what I saying?" Magnus "No I was more focused on the fact we were hundreds of feet in the air."
"Oh well I told about the Arcane clan and how we travel between the three cities regularly I saw he was hesitant to answer so I told him that being apart of us isn't a permanent thing he can return home whenever he likes he still didn't give an answer to think about while we all get to know each other that's all."
Magnus wondered why he was taking so long to make a decision so he decided to tell him about his life before meeting Dragon and Hela especially his family and that night Aaron finally decided to tell them about his family about his father who was a member of the Allura police officer and his mother was dead so it was just the two of them but his father was only some times so Aaron was basically living alone and his father comes home pretty much once a month and gave up on trying to make because it was rare for someone to share his interest machinery until he met kids his age with lightning surging from his hands
