She shook her head. "No Darius it's not okay!" She said to him through the tears that were starting to run down her cheeks.
"It will never be okay." She said to him. "You can't touch me Darius. You can't hold me when I'm sad, or take my hand as we walk...or even wipe my tears away..." She said as more tears filled her eyes and she pulled her knees up to her chest. There were holes in the knees of her jeans that she must've died in and she lay her forehead on her knees as her blonde hair fell around her, sher shoulders shaking from her crying.
"We'll never be able to fly together...and we won't be able to play in the gorge....so tell me Darius. Tell me just how this is okay." She said to him, never looking up at him, just conitnuing to cry to her knees.

Darius sighed as she openly cryed. He too felt really sad about what she had said and she was right about it too. All the things they had done togeather were now gone. However he did not cry, instead a small smile was on his face an idea had come to him.
"You're right, it's not okay, but maybe we can find a way to get you back to normal."
It was time to test out this idea. He closed his eyes and a small white whisp came from out of his mouth and moved to the other side of Lily. The wisp suddenly began to materialize into a shape, in fact it was a mirror image of Darius.
"But," the mirror image began with a smile, "This will have to do for a while."
Without another word the wisp hugged Lily, and this time, it was a solid hug. A tight loving embrace followed by a kiss on the cheek.

Lily didn't even look up at him, she just kept crying, and the harder she cried, the more the wind picked up, howling through the trees, mirroring the pain that this lost soul was feeling.
When she felt arms around her however, she looked up, seeing this mirror of Darius, this wisp that had saved her on more than one occasion holding her tight. She threw her arms around the wisp, though continuing to cry as the wind howled, whipping leaves all around them. It wasn't Darius...but it was close.
"What do you mean there's something we can do? I'm dead Darius. Dead. No one comes back from the dead." She said to him with a saddened look as she let go of the wisp, and looked to the real Darius, her hands trembling as the wind blew, but showed no effect on her. Her hair stayed perfectly positioned on her shoulders as though there were no wind at all.

"Well I mean if you and Liz are connected and she's still alvie that brings us some hope. Maybe we can find your body. And in the meantime...maybe we can create a golem for you or something so that you can at least touch us and feel us. How is that for you?"

Lily looked at Darius, and smiled a little, wiping away her own tears and she shrugged. "We can try I guess...if only to save Liz." She said to him with a nod.
She stood then, as the wind died down a little and she shrugged. "If we can create a golem that would be great....but don't spend too much time on it. Liz is still alive, so she's more important." Lily said as she looked to Darius.
"You know...I really...really missed you."

Darius smiled rubbing her head gently with his mist like doppleganger before it went back into Darius's body.
"I know you did Lily," he began with a smile, "Now I guess we better get to that golem of yours."
He rubbed his hands togeather in anticipation and without another word, he jumped into the muddy gorge landing on his feet causing a small splash that splattered his pants a little. He then proceeded to dig his hands into the muck and moved it to a nice solid spot at the gorge, moving his hands arround it and molding what looked to be a foot.

She nodded, watching him jump into the mud, feeling a little sick that he hadn't said it back to her. 'I missed you too Lily' was all she had wanted to hear but it didn't come.
His mind was focused on other things, and she hoped that was the reason he hadn't said he had missed her. Of course he'd missed her...hadn't he? She hoped so.
"Alright...say where is Liz right now?" Lily asked as she sat on the edge of the gourge, watching Darius work.

As Darius continued to build up he used his telekinisis to apply pressure on the golem so that the mud would harden and would not fall apart or sag.
He then looked up at Lily a nervous look on his face.
"She said she was going to take a nap, but that's got me worried." he said piling a new glop of mud over the now slowly developing waist, "I mean what if thats a sign that she might die? Once were done with this thing here we'll go back and check up on her okay?"

"Yeah...okay..." Lily said as she looked out into the woods, being surprised as she thought about everything.
"Darius...how are we going to find my body? I stormed all over this country...and I don't remember dying...so who knows how long I've been dead...and what if it's dangerous...are we sure we want to do this?" She asked him, knowing it would be hard for her, but if it was best for Liz and Darius, she could learn to accept being dead.

Darius admited that Lily brought up a very valuable point that could provide a very tough challenge for them. He thought about it as he now started to work on the arms and neck of the golem, his hands think with brown mud.
Then he rubbed his chin thoughtfully, ignoring the mud being spread arround.
"Well I've been learning new things..." he began, "Maybe I can try and locate your body using my powers..."

"Oh, you can do that? Wow. That's really cool. How long have you been able to do stuff like that?" She asked him as she sat at the edge of the gorge, looking down at him as he worked quickly.
"What else has changed since I've been gone?" She asked slowly. "I mean...have you...that is to say, while I was gone did you...well...find...someone...special?" She asked him almost nervously. She wanted him to have found someone else, but also...she didn't want him to. She knew she still had feelings for him...but she was dead now and could never offer him anything anmore...and after all the trouble she'd caused for him, it would almost be better if he found someone else.

Darius looked up at her witht hose soft blue eyes of his. He knew that this discussion was very likely to take place and he was kinda glad that it did.
"Nope," he began with a smile, "I haven't found anyone like that while I was gone."
He then glanced at his model for a moment. It was now complete and it's body remained smooth and streamlined.
He turned back to Lily, still smiling, "Why don't you try possesing the golem now? Then you can start to do things like touching and feeling things."

She waited quietly for his answer, wondering what it would be. She could see it going both ways with him. When he answered'no' she couldn't help but put a smile on her face, even if it was a very small one.
"Oh I see." She said to him before focusing on the golem. It would be hard to try and posess this, as she had never tried to posess something before, and wasn't really sure how she would do it.
"A-alright...so what do I do? Just focus on possesing it or what?"

"Yeah that's sort of what I want you to do. You just have to focus all your spiritual energy on taking hold of the desired space. Then I suggest that you try moving arround to see how it works out for you. I always do that when I'm healing someone the way I do. Try it out!"

"Okay..." She said as she closed her eyes, focusing all she could on posessing the golem in front of her. She then took a deep breath, feeling a little empowered by having all this spiritual power moving through her and she moved forward, taking a step into the golem, focusing on moving her arms. So she lifted her arms...
and nothing happened. So she focused on moving her feet forward.
Same thing happened. Nothing.
She opened her eyes and stepped out of the golem looking at Darius. "Maybe I didn't focus enough?"
