Welcome to Gaia! ::

Closing her eyes as she heard all this within her mind, "Alright but what about Damian, parth?" she softly said within her mind.

Damain's spirit growled as it stood there. "Seems you forgot that I can detatch my spirit." He said with a laugh. "Well...you two have a grand ol' time." He said with a grin. "If getting me away from Takara so you can be inside her and try and get her to love her...and to hurt her because you are a spineless peice of s**t and can't leave her alone...well you guys go ahead." He said with a bright smile. Mocking happyness, not actually feeling it. He shook his head and nodded to Takara. "I'm sorry, looks like he is only going to try for eternity to pry me away from you Takara...through both life....and death." He stated, for a breif second to Takara only his face had changed...into the form of Raven, when he had said death, it was clear that he had meant Raven when he did because of his form changing into him for those few seconds. He turned his back and shook his head slowly as he walked, the amazing change it would seem was even beyond what Damian knew it was. He just sighed deeply as he leaped into the lake and turned into his rock form, allowing himself to sink to the very bottom because of his weight and closing his eyes tightly, allowing Takara to search with Parth, there was no way of anyone without the power to manipulate water to get this far down to him. He layed and all the spirits within him all co-mingling within his brain. He couldn't be around her...the one he loved...not while the vile being of Parth was within her.

I could feel Takara's sadness annd Damian's anger and Parth's spirit. I felt a tear trickle down my face and I yelled at the top of my lungs, "Will everyone just stop this complete madness! We need everyone to be training Ming Yue! That is our mission! You have no idea of the increasing danger you are putting me in", I cried. All of my feelins were mixed right now and I felt confused at what to feel. I put my head down on Ki's shoulder. "She needs to be trained. Or has everyone forgotten why we came here in the first place! We must put aside our differences", I said still loudly enough to be heard but with a much softer voice. I then lifted my head, turned and looked at Ki, fear in my eyes, "We don't have time for this", I whispered.

Ki looked at Runa, "Yes... What are you going to do now? What should I do?" He was slightly overwhelmed.

Xi's eyes flashed open; he awakened from his meditative state as he felt a familiar presence once more. Standing up and picking up his staff, he looked about. It was some time ago when he decided to leave the city for a time. He had to cancel his class then and would one day go back to it; until then he thought it best to continue his training.

He stepped over to the lake and dipped his hands into the cool water, then splashed it onto his face. Looking up to the sky, he wondered who was nearby; he had felt the same presence a few hours earlier. He cautiously made his way to the direction of it.

Stepping behind a tree as to not get noticed, he peered into an open area. He spotted Runa and an unfamiliar face talking together; then he noticed on the ground another familiar figure: Takara. He had hoped he would run into her again someday. However she looked unconscious; he hoped everything was alright.

He moved back behind the tree to assess the situation a little more. At the base of the tree, something caught his eye. It looked like a shard of some kind of crystal. Crouching down, he carefully picked it up and examined it, then placed it in his belt pouch for later observation.

Standing back up, he began to make his way out into the open area. He stopped after a few feet and stood there with this staff at his side and parallel to the ground; he watched them carefully.

He ran up with her and put his arm around Runa to comfort her. He closed his eyes and felt for parth, and indeed felt his soul within Takara.

"Two.....Damian's has left, I think Parth's is in her and the other is older you cannot take it out, don't even try", I said thinking of the water spirit. "It would kill her. Just get Parth or whoever it is....get that spirit out! It's destroying her from the inside out....", I said sadly.
