Scooter was preparing himself for the ritual where he would officially become mortal. He was scared, though he wouldn't admit it. He knew he had to do it if he wanted to continue being with Kyle.
He wore a white robe. Elegant and simple. He sat on a rock, dipping one foot into the ocean. His heart raced. What if becoming mortal was painful? He never knew anyone who had done it, but the chances of it happening were very likely.
It was worth it. Even if he would be in pain, or lose his powers to control the rain. He knew Kyle was worth all of it. He would have to power through it. It wouldn't be so bad.
He took a deep breath, getting ready to begin.

Jordan stood near Scooter in wonder, wondering what the boy was doing. He stood a fair distance away, and decided to speak with him. Slowly making his way up, he asked, "Hey, Scooter...what are you doing?"
Scooter looked quickly up at Jordan, the man had startled him. "Hello, big brother!" he exclaimed as he stood up. "I was just becoming mortal, what are you doing?"

"You were...well then. That isnt something you hear every day." Jordan raised an eyebrow. "I was just getting out of town for a bit. Too much battle training and what-not." the boy shrugged. "Why are you becoming mortal?"
Scooter then realized that Jordan didn't know about him and Kyle. "I'm dating Kyle now," Scooter began explaining. "He apologized about what happened and we started going out! We've met up quite a few times since then and I really do love him so I decided I'd become mortal for him so our relationship works out better!"

Jordan stared at Scooter for a few moments before grinning. "I'm very, very happy for you brother! But is mortality really necessary? I mean...you'll die..."
"Because, everyone around me will die, over and over, no matter who I make friends with, or who I meet, I know they'll die before me. And I'll have to live forever, being sad because I can't make friends for that long. And what if the world ends and I'm the only person left over? It's too scary.. I love everyone here a lot so I want to grow with them too.." Scooter frowned at the thought.
Scooter smiled, he hugged Jordan. "I'm not sure what's gonna happen out there, but I think it will be worth it. Will you wait here for me? In case something happens.."
Scooter let go of Jordan. He took a deep breath as he entered the water. He walked until it was as high as his hips. He put his arms out, and closed his eyes.
Thank you gods for this immortal life but I must give it back to you and ask for a mortal one in return. I will continue my job as a rain-caster until my death and then I will have fulfilled my purpose on earth.
A transparent bubble surrounded Scooter as he prayed silently. It began to get bigger and bigger. A vast spectrum of colours began to run through it until the boy was barely noticeable.
And then, the bubble popped. The colours flew high into the sky and disappeared.
Scooter opened his eyes, standing still. He felt as if nothing had happened. Until suddenly, the feeling hit him all at once. His body couldn't take it, as he passed out, falling back into the water.

"S-Scooter!" Jordan called out, jumping into the water and moving to the boy as quickly as he could. He picked his brother up, throwing him over his shoulder and rushing back.
He placed the boy on the ground, flopping down next to him out of breath.
Scooter coughed a bit as his body shook. "It's c-cold.." his voice scratched, it sounded weak. He held onto his head in pain. His whole body hurt, it felt terrible. He didn't know what to do with that much pain. He calmly stayed on the ground, not panicking. He knew panicking would only make it worse.

Jordan gritted his teeth, not really knowing what to do. He touched Scooters forehead, taking away some of the coldness he felt. He then proceeded to lay his new jacket on the boy. "There, there, it's okay...just relax, brother, everything will be okay..."
Scooter turned his head around, he had the feeling something unpleasant was going to happen. And he was right, within the moment, he began coughing violently. He covered his mouth with his hand, when he moved it, his hand was covered in blood. It covered his mouth as well. He looked at it with one eye open.
"L-Look, Big brother, blood." he showed the man his hand. "Im-Immortals don't bleed as easily as h-humans do."

"Ahh, dear..." he muttered, creating some water in his hand and rid Scooters hand of the blood. "I really hope you make it brother...you best not be dieing on me..." Jordan sighed, wiping the blood from Scooters lips.
