Anne let's put a breath.
"Oh boy...this is something."
Anne jogged after Iso, realizing it's a left turn into Starbucks. She walks through the hallway and into the courtyard, which seemed to be kept warm by the cobalt fountain in the centre. She looked around for Iso to see where she went.

-
[i]Iso is right around the corner.[/i] "Why are you so slow?"
-
"Still a little tired after that walk up the stairs. And...getting tackled. Alright. Let me order you something." Anne walked to the counter. Where a large African American was wearing a barista outfit. "Hey, Two hot chocolates please?" The man nodded, and began to brew the hot cocoa.
-
[i]Iso hugged her new friend from behind.[/i] "What is hot chocolate?"
-
"Wait...you are excited over something you've never heard of before?"
-
"Of course! Chocolate is involved!"
-
"Not wrong! It's actually a drink. It uses the same stuff on chocolate but turns it into a powder. Then, it's mixed with hot milk or water to make... Hot Chocolate!"
-
"Sounds godly! Is it done yet?!"
-
"In just a moment, hopefully!"
-
[i]Iso impatiently taps her foot.[/i] "I wish I still had the ability to poof things into existance."
-
"Ya well...most people have to wait!" The barista comes back with two cups. And sets them down. Anne grabs them both and hands one to Iso. "Here you are!"
-
[i]Iso takes it with a smile and takes a sip. She immediatley cries out in pain.[/i] "HOT!"
-
Anne's eyes widen with surprise. "ISO!"
-
[i]Iso has her eyes closed with a pained expression.[/i]
-
"Iso...it's called Hot chocolate for a reason..."
-
"Y-Yeah....I know now." [i]Iso slowly opens her eyes and smiles.[/i] "I'm fine."
-
Anne smiles as well. "Good! How about we get some milk to cool down your cup, hey?"
-
[i]Iso nods.[/i] "Milk is good!"
-
Anne grabbed a few small cups of milk, and handed a few to Iso. "Want to sit down?"
-
[i]Iso pours the milk into her chocolate.[/i] "Sure, that would be nice."
-
The hot cocoa steams, then settles. The cup is now warm, rather then hot. Anne does the same, and takes a sip. "Mmmm. That's good." Anne pulled up a chair and sat down at a small table. Keeping her face over the drink to keep her face warm.
-
[i]Iso sat down across the table from Ann. She slowly took a sip...then jugged the whole thing. Her lips had a large line of chocolate as she smiled like a small child.[/i] "This. Is. Awesome!"
-
[spoiler]Sorry! Got caught up with ending the tourney and stuff[/spoiler] "Haha! You may need a napkin, girl." Anne handed Iso a napkin.
-
[i]Iso wiped her mouth with the napkin.[/i] "How did I not know about this before?!"
-
"Well where did you grow up? Hot chocolate is really only sold where it's cold so...."
-
[i]Iso nervously laughs.[/i] "Yeah, I guess I grew up somewhere warm." [i]Her hand shakes slightly as she raises her empty cup to her mouth.[/i]
