"Strength...it gives me strength!" Gripping her fist in a white knuckle grip she stares down at it. Blood began to seep between her fingers as her finger nails peirced her palm. The pain was ignored, just the all the other pain in her body, and fed into her power! A chunk of earth was lifted into the air, there was no tricks or illusions, it was just a chunk of earth floating infront of her. "Strength enough to hold the earth on my shoulders! Atlas will cower when he hears my name!" The earth chunk continued to float around then it exploded! The tiny chunks of earth halted inches away from the point of the explosion and just continued hovering there. Sweat began to form on her brow, and she was quick to wipe it away.

The boy was whistling now as he went along.He wasn't scared anymore,the tune brightened his spirits.He began to wonder about things,with each step.The world was so big,so much waiting to be seen.The only thing that could exlain what he felt was wonder,as his eyes took in everything.

The tiny bits of earth continued to hover for several more moments before they all slammed, violently, into each other. They hit each other and broke into dust! The dust slowly drifted down to the ground. Lifting both hands into the air a larger chunk of earth and stone was torn from the very earth itself!

The boy continued along,drying in the night air.His wings twitched gently as he hopped.He quickly went back to simple walking though,until he heard a noise.He was instantly curious,and followed the noise to its source.It wasn't difficult to do,as he crept through the bush.Eventually he came upon the girl Rintala.His head poked out of the bush as he watched her,his blue eyes taking in every detail with a sense of awe."....Wow..."

Rintala grunted in effort as she threw the large chunk of earth and stone into the air where it exploded like the smaller one before it. The stone struck against each other, creating sparks and fire. The flames ignited around the earth and created a sort of firework effect. The chunks of earth and stone slowly flew down towards the earth, but before the earth could hit the ground Rintala caught them. Sweat was almost pouring down her forehead as she held against the force of falling stone, the number of stones, and the size of the clumps of earth itself.

The boy shrugged and retreated into the bush.The little show had amazed him,that much was for sure.He didn't want to bother her though,so he continued on his way.Soon he'd be at the Dojo place.As he went along he wondered how he could make fire to.

Rintala collapsed to the ground, gasping for breath. Her little show, along with her little 'lesson' with Master Vice left her exahusted! She needed a beer, but she wouldn't go back to the dojo...not until she got stronger! Staggering back to her feet she used the trees as support, slowly making her way back to the cavern...slowly making her way back to her power!

The boy stopped for a moment,then turned around.The noise had stopped,and was replaced.Shrugging he went back,and spotted the girl was gone.He saw her stagger off however,and quickly followed her.His high amounts of energy kept him bright and happy.And the night was his time to be awake.He giggled as he ran up alongside the woman,with a wave.

"Power...strength! They are what really matter! Not love, not friends or family...power, and strength...and a child? What the hell?" Rintala was caught off guard, and really too tired to even realize she was being followed. She paused and knelt down, looking at the little boy with questioning eyes. Despite her usual gruff nature, even she couldn't be mean to a child. "Hey there, little guy...what's your name?"

A look of thinking came across the boy's face.They hadn't told him his name,and he was in a hurry.His father had shot himself.He shrugged slightly to the lady.His little wings flicked slightly as he wiped a bit of ooze off his bare shoulder.He wore only his shoes,pants,socks,and a pair of mini-boxxers with skulls on them.Despite his age,his father wanted him wearing skulls instead of other odd things."Hello" The kid smiled warmly.His little fangs showing in the process.

Her look of questioning and caring was soon shifted over to annoyance. Did she not just ask the little brat for a name? Rolling her eyes, and shaking her head slightly, she looked back at the little boy. "What...is...your...name?"

"I don't know.."The boy blushed slightly,and looked slightly ashamed.As he looked the woman over,he wondered where his mom was.He'd seen only this lady and the statue.His mother he'd never met,his father he'd never met.He knew he'd see his father soon though,and that it'd be red.He didn't mind that part though,this part about the name bothered him though."A name....it's a title..right?"The boy questioned the lady in return.Speaking in a way slightly beyond his age as his mind and the information forced into it tried to meld together.

"To a degree. A name is what people call you when they're trying to get your attention, or when they are refering to you." She smiled and poked the little boy on the nose with her index finger. "Well...you can't very well be without a name, can you? So what do you want your name to be? It can be anything you want! Mine is Rintala..."

"Rin..tala?"That's a pretty name."The boy bit his lip slightly as he thought for a moment.Rocking on his feet as he wondered.He remembered something,not a name really.Just two letters that had been scratched onto the inside of his tank."Can my name be KB?"The boy smiled at the thought.It was one of the few things he remembered of his birth.The scratches sitting there,as nothing,but as his mind started to understand,he saw they were letters.Though their meaning would always ellude him.

"KB? That's a nice name! Ok, then! KB it is! Now...where are your parents KB?" Rintala said, slowly standing up a bit to look around the forest. The fact the little kid had fangs was a bit...odd, but then again she'd seen some pretty weird things since she arrived...where ever the hell she was!
