Worse Than A Child

Raiden paused in the doorway of the sky temple. Fujin was stood with the kids, the object in question perched on his head. It was not the first time Fujin had stolen his hat, and he had no doubt it would not be the last.

“Looks like you've been rumbled, Lord Fujin,” Kung Jin claimed, causing the other's to giggle.

Raiden just gave Fujin a look, before holding out his hand. A silent command to give it back. Fujin, however, took it as a challenge, his eyes narrowed and loudly announcing “Come and get it.”

Raiden grumbled as he started walking over to his brother. It was only when he was close that he noticed the mischievous smirk Fujin wore. What's he up to? He went to grab the hat regardless. Before his fingers could grasp it, gust to wind sent it flying off. Raiden watched as it landed in Cassie's hands.

“Fujin,” Raiden lowly growled.

“Whoops.” Fujin shrugged, wearing the most shit eating grin that Raiden had ever seen in his life... And he had lived a long life.

He turned to Cassie, watching as the girl's mouth also curled upwards into a smile. I get the distinct feeling they are going to make this difficult. He started walking towards Cassie, who threw the hat at Kung Jin and took off running.

Jin looked at the hat in his hands and then back at Raiden. As he made a beeline for the Shaolin, Jin made a face before throwing the hat in Jacqui's direction, screaming “Catch!”

Sighing in annoyance, Raiden turned heel to head towards Jacqui instead. She looked the most panicked about being the one is possession of the hat. Before Raiden was even that close to her she threw it at Takeda, yelling “It's your problem now!”

“Hey!” Takeda yelped, just barely catching the hat. As Raiden changed direction yet again, Takeda looked around before throwing the hat blindly.

Before Raiden could grab it, another gust of wind caught it. It danced gracefully in the air before landing back on Fujin's head. The wind god crossed his arms over his chest and lent to one side, looking oh so smug.

“You are worse than a child,” Raiden reprimanded, watching as Fujin tilted the hat over his eyes.

“Aw, but it's so much fun.” Raiden knew even as he approached his brother that he was going to throw it again. As he predicted, the second Raiden was close enough, the hat was whisked off, back over to Cassie.

The thought occurred to Raiden he could just teleport or zap everyone and take the hat that way... But... As he saw the way the kids giggled, he couldn't help but smile.

Well, that would rather ruin the fun, now wouldn't it?

As he approached Cassie again, he supposed there was no harm letting them tease him, if only for a while.
