The group was immediately greeted with the scent of pine. Conifers created a sweet-smelling forest, ferns poking up where one might've expected grass. An occasional ginkgo tree dotted the woods as well. However, there was also the feeling of humidity and the smell of fish and salt, what Riku knew meant there was a nearby coast. Metallic blue dragonflies slipped effortlessly through the air, sometimes dancing with each other.

With a smirk, Riku looked back at the rest of the party. It wasn't the same time period, but there was plenty to be seen, regardless. This was going to be fun.

Kaldur shook his head with amusement. While he had to admit he was curious about what the others could do, he was more amused by the way they were so excited to go about demonstrating it and even filming it. It was something Wally would think to do. Still, Kaldur was up for stretching his magical abilities a little since he had not been able to in some months. His natural abilities (ie breathing underwater) had not been affected, thankfully, by whatever had brought him to the SOL but whatever magic ability let him control water or create electricity had vanished.

It would not hurt to have a little practice after so long.

"I will. I do not have much to show." He stepped forward and the black eel tattoos on his arms started to glow a soft blue. It was a little difficult without his water bearers to help channel the magic, but he managed to get the water out of the nearby river to spring up and twist into the shape up of large eel. It "slithered" around the group before he "threw" it back into the river with a grunt of effort.

Riku lifted an eyebrow when those tattoos began to glow. The water eel got that other brow to raise, and he watched in awe as it moved around them. A smirk slowly slid over his features. “Your ‘not much’ was more impressive than a guy Sora had to fight back home.” He thumbed back to his friend. Demyx could have only dreamed of doing that. “That was impressive.”

“My turn.” Riku stepped to the side near a tree, having come prepared. From his pocket he pulled a black strip of cloth and he blindfolded himself. He raised his hand and extended another almost invitingly, his Keyblade forming in a congregation of bright blue sparks. He turned back to the others as if he weren’t blindfolded at all.

“Nobody move. ...I mean it, don’t.”

The youth drew back his weapon and the immediate area darkened. He rushed ahead, vanishing into a dark portal only to appear on the other side of the group, speeding forward. Riku rushed all around them, blinking in and out of existence until he appeared in the air near the tree, forcefully plunging Way to the Dawn into the ground. Blasts of dark energy erupted from the ground, and Riku drew back his Keyblade one last time. His weapon lengthened, a huge glowing blade covering his sword. Turning, he effortlessly swung it through the trunk of the tree, which promptly crashed to the ground.

The extra blade vanished, and he held open his palm to reveal a blue-white fireball for a brief second before snuffing it out. Riku smirked, slinging his Keyblade over his shoulder. That was fun.
