Welcome to Gaia! ::

"Well, actually you won since you passed by here first, dork," Typhon laughed before sighing a bit of frustration. He landed on the roof before jumping off of it and onto the ground below, "Are you coming?"

Typhon walked inside, expecting Reia to follow.

Typhon looked back to see how far Reia was behind him, and he noticed that Reia was standing in the middle of the room, "Well, I'll show you to a guest room first, then I'll go talk to Konoe."

He motioned her to follow him down a hallway.

"Well...it's probably one of the gaudiest places there is in the Wind Clan... Konoe is a stickler about aesthetics," Typhon turned around to go back down the hallway, "Make yourself at home. After I talk to Konoe, I'll be back in the fields for more training."

Typhon stepped back out into the hallway, looking through the open areas first for Konoe.

"Konoe!!! Get your butt out here!! I need to talk to you!" Typhon yelled loud enough that his voice could be heard throughout the entire house.

Konoe stepped out of his study room and rushed down the hallway to see where Typhon was, "Please...please do keep it down...we have an important guest who has requested that it be quiet."

"Eh? Another guest?" Typhon raised an eyebrow, "Okay, just wanted to tell you there's a homeless girl who's crashing in for a few. Maybe you can help her get back on her feet, get her a job, find her a home, etc."

"That won't be too hard. There are plenty of opportunities in this village," Konoe smiled, "And what of you? Are you okay? I know you were angry earlier..."

"I'm fine..." Typhon snorted. He didn't want Konoe's help at all. He was still upset at Konoe from the earlier conversation.

Typhon had returned to the field to practice more. He tried various methods and steps to figure out what he needed to do. But every attempt turned into failure, "What am I doing wrong?"

Konoe was watching from the cover of a shadow not too far from where Typhon was. Typhon was unaware of Konoe being there, but he had a strange feeling that he was being watched. Konoe slowly emerged from the shadow that he was residing in, "You are trying to control a power that is foreign to your body. I've analyzed it...but no matter how many times I tried to assume it was something else, it appears that you are trying to mimic me and my abilities."

Typhon's eye widened. The word 'mimic' set him off. He did not want to be compared to the monster that was born from Konoe, "Shuddup!!! I'm not copying anybody!!! My techniques are my own!!! I will not be like that cruddy clone of yours!"

"Oh..? Your encounter with that clone must have been a bad experience..." Konoe looked up to the sky, "Perhaps that clone is where you got that power from...I do not know for sure since you do not wish to provide me that information. If...you wish to become stronger, you will not focus on something that you will never be able to handle. Your ability is in the control of your weapons, it...is a highly unusual ability, but you have obviously not tapped into that talent yet." Konoe jumped into the air to fly back to his home, leaving Typhon to think on his words.

Konoe went back inside his home, and sat down on a chair, even more exhausted than he used to be earlier on in the day, I should see if the others are alright...

Konoe heard someone screaming, and he jolted up. He ran through the hallways and burst into the room where the scream had come from, and saw that Reia seemed to be in some distress, "What happened? Are you okay?"

"Miss?!" Konoe rushed to Reia's side. He lifted her wrist to check her pulse, then placed his hand on her forehead, "A deep stress or trauma?" He said as though he tried to state what it was that had caused her to faint. He stood up and pulled out a blanket from a closet, and covered it over her. Konoe then sat down in a chair, watching her to see if there were any further developments in her condition.
