"Put you down? You sure? What for?" Arrow asked turning his attention to me.
"I have to go," I said back. By the look on Arrow's face, he understood what I meant.
"Go where?" Catra asked, a dumdfounded expression on his face.
"Like GO!" I growled feeling pressure. Arrow took me to a large leafy bush and set me down near its farthest branches. I ducked into the bush to relieve the pressure in my gut.
"Call if you need me!" Arrow stated standing to move and give my privicy. I heard his and Catra's voice flare in anger again, Gill's peaceful tone attempting to calm their rage. The clash of steel soon followed. As soon as I was done, I moved to see the giants to call Arrow, but Arrow was locked in battle with Catra. A short sword went after the redhead who dodged with small knives. Gill stood helplessly to the side.
"I started this," I found myself gasping. Tear welled up in my eyes. I ran back into the bush, not caring about the fact my feet were bare or that small branched clung to my skin and dress. As I appeared on the other side of the immesnse green, a metal blade struck the ground hard before me. I screamed and fell back. The shovel fell free from the owner's hands.
"Please don't hurt me!" I shouted on impulse throwing my hands up to sheild my face.
"It's you," a deep tolling voice breathed. A finger invaded my personal space and dipped under my chin lifting my eyes. I remembered the mysterious warmth of the.copper eyes gazing down at me from under a wide brimmed hat.
"Sullyman!" His name slipped from my lips as easily as air. He smiled warmly. For some reason, it must have been the warmth of his smile, I latched onto his finger causing the smile to fade away.
"What did they do to make you cry?" he sighed.
"Catra and Arrow are fighting! It's all my fault! I hate being this small!" I sobbed. I felt him stroak my back gently.
"There there Miss Amy. You are fine. Catra is a bit of a hothead and Arrow is not one to back down from a challange. Their friendship with you, and with each other, will not be soiled. Trust me. Now stop crying please," he soothingly whispered, "You look beautiful." I looked up at him with teary, blurry eyes. His soft expression begin to put me at ease until I heard my name being called.
"How far have I gone?" I yelped looking back at the bush that turned into a row of bushes.
"If you came from there," he said with a point of his index finger, "...then you came a long way to my garden." A figure in a white tunic appeared looming over the bushes. Sullyman's wall-like hand scooped me up and brought me close to his kneeling legs. With snapping and cracking of foliage, Keelan combed the bushes.
"Amy?" he called out peering in the brush. Suddenly his azure eyes snapped onto the hulking form of Sullyman. I slipped free from his grasp and ran forward into Keelan's line of sight. Keelan pushed his way through the bushes and stood before me. He dropped carefully to a kneel and lifted me from my waist. I was placed in his other hand. He looked me over, his intense gaze enough to scare any words from me. He turned his attention to Sullyman, who was silent.
"What are you playing?" the giant demanded. Sullyman sighed deeply.
"I don't know why a human is here, but I think she needs to be treated with respect," he explained, "She came to me in tears. So the question aimed at me could be aimed at you." He placed his large hands on his knees. Keelan thought about what the other had said.
"Please don't fight," I begged. Keelan huffed with a slight pout.
"If Amy trusts you," Keelan grunted, "Then I shall do my best. Though if you want to visit her, tell me. And you better not tell anyone about her or I will kill you!"
"Your heart is true. Keep her safe," Sullyman praised picking his shovel back up, "But I must return to my work now." He gave us a small wave as Keelan carefully stepped over the bushes.
"You ripped your dress," Keelan stated.
"I'm sorry." I felt bad.
"I have more I would like you to try on when we return to my room. And besides, you were hurt. That fix is more important than a silly dress." And he was right.

Awwww, cute final interaction there. I like how the fight scene progresses (previous update 'cause I missed it methinks). This sort of scene doesn't need a blow-by-blow narrative as much as it needs your type of organization. You illustrate the fact that, from your point of view, it is chaotic, scary, it is a fight. (Am I being clear enough here?) And then Arrow and Catra getting in a fight ... woah. Suspense! Aww, Sullyman. He's way nice! I like how you made that very clear.
Theory. Debunked. (Sorry, non-Satal folks. Inside joke.)

Keelan strode confidentily to where the others were mulling about around the base of the large tree, panting with their efforts.
"Did you find her?" Catra yelped as soon as Keelan was near. He nodded, but slipped me silently into the deep breast pocket of his cotton tunic.
"What are you doing?" Catra began to ask before a slap rang sharp through the air.
"You are a fool," Keelan hissed. I couldn't see, but his sudden surge of movement said that he was the one to strike Catra.
"All the action must have given Amy a fright. We were at fault," Gill admitted in his rumbling deep voice, "All of us were at fault." I curled up as tight as my body would let me, almost clinging to Keelan.
"Amy," Gill directed towards the lump I made in Kee's pocket, "Please forgive me. I don't want you to be afraid and I certianly do not want to loose your trust."
"I am sorry too. I will make you something extra special for supper, all right?" I heard Arrow pitch in.
"I knew bringing you here was a mistake," Catra sulked after a short silence, "But you seemed to have wanted it so badly. I don't want you to regreat it. I don't want to be a monster in your eyes. Amy? Keelan? Will you accept my apologies?" With a rustle of cloth and a thud, I heard no more from the giant royal.
"Rise Catra, you need not bow before your servant or your friend," Keelan sighed shifting his weight, "Besides, after resting her nerves a bit I am sure Amy shall be fine. Just leave us for now. You have your duties, do you not?" All three muttered in agreement, their low booming voices muddled and unreadable.
"We leave her to you," Gill stated. Keelan waited till they were gone before adressing me.
"You caused quite a stir," he chuckled opening his pocket so that he could see me better.
"I'm sorry," I sniffled. Keelan could handle pressure better than I could ever hope to.
"Well, our entertainment went elsewhere. Where shall we go? Certiantly not back to my quaters since I brought what I needed with me out here!" I could tell Keelan was trying his all to be kind.
"Is Sullyman still in the garden?" I squeaked expecting a sharp frown which strangly did not come.
"Yes he is. You want to return?" Keelan mused. I nodded.
"Unless that's not ok!"
"It should be fine. The hedges would help cover us from view. Why not?" Keelan stated beginning to walk in that direction anfter stooping down to grab a book and a quill, which he clenched in his mouth. He thumbed through papers as he walked, the bags under his eyes clear as day in the afternoon sun. I felt sorry for him. Suddenly, he spat the bright orange Firebird's quill into a waiting hand.
"What?" I heard Sullyman ask, the shovel clanging loudly against a hidden rock.
"Amy wanted to come back after talking the others into leaving us be for a bit. Do you mind?" Keelan snorted. He wasn't too happy, but he complied with my wishes. That had to amount to something.
"Well, she is kind and you seem to have your heart in the right place," grunted Sullyman, "So I do not mind. Just look before you sit!" Keelan nodded and moved off to the side a bit. The back of one of his vast hands pressed gently against me as he slowly sat near the base of a large flowering tree. Spring must have recently touched the land here.
"Now don't squirm," Keelan warned me as he gripped my body with two fingers. He pulled me from his pocket and set me on the tilled earth. The dreaded human book from before lay in his lap with a few loose parchment papers.
"That is not a good refrence," Sullyman rumbled from a few yards away.
"I know," Keelan bluntly replied, "Which is why I am editing it." He tapped the book with his prized quill and opened it to read the page it took him too. The loose, note scribbled pages were stuffed behind the cover.
"Amy will you come here?" Sullyman beckoned. I went to his side. Plopping a small burlap bag at my feet, he wiped the sweat from his brow.
"Since you are here, might as well put you to work," he chuckled undoing the string that held the bag closed.

:] He's going to have her plant something? Awwww.
It's very kind of Kee to let her go back and visit, even though he doesn't seem to like Sullyman. Almost sweet. >3

EEEEEEEEEEeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! I just read all of this and I am in love with the story! This is awesome! I love the interaction with all the giants. The Bath scene is one of my favorites (awkwardness always adds to a story idk why but it does) I mean it's that little mature hint we don't always get in these clean stories! Thank you for keeping that in there! I want you to take you time (goodness knows I am with my stories) but You have a huge supporter over here when you do continue! Good luck!

Well truth is I would love to give you a derpy yes, but that is no so. My style has changed again and with my life being turned upside down and shaken, I can't get into the groove of things. So as of now no.
