Welcome to Gaia! ::

Dear Diary

Training, Training, Training, and it is TIRING. I'm almost certian that I was mad when I agreed, and I don't know a day here now that I don't wake up and wonder what torture I'll get that day.

But you know? I don't mind it so much, even though it's so hard. The hard part is what makes it a challange, and I like that.

I also went to Gaia to see this Egyptian elf. She... well, I'm not sure what she did. She took a ring I had, and contained 'Nymph' (My nickname for the other.) in it. I don't know how she did it, she made me sleep. Must be one of those ways that I can't find out her tricks?

But it's worked, I'm not getting urges to feel up any sexy men anymore. It's really strange to walk down the street and see someone who is good looking... and not think about what I want to do to them that second. I like it.

Anyway, other things have happened too. There was a Gaia ball, and I think I had some sort of drug because all I can remember is plates, and rainbows, and nightmares about Ura and Kami. The worst part is, those nightmares are TRUE. He was flirting with her, and she was responding like I used to. I feel so crap, and depressed whenever I'm not training here in Greece, and when I am, I busy myself so that I'm too busy or too tired to notice it. So he's moved on. I wish I could move on too, but it's impossible. I can't even bring myself to tell people what I saw in the dream because it'd be a form of betrayel, right? I can't do that again. Not yet.

Maybe I'll get over that a*****e soon and I'll scream out from the top of the Durem clock tower that Ura dreams about having breasts.

Maybe.

Men really suck, I've decided since Nymph's stopped trying to rip my clothes off. I don't want a boyfriend anymore.

-Aurora.

And if Adrian tries to come near me, I'll do what Kia did. I'll threaten to remove all male parts with something blunt.

Aurora continued to relax in the pool, mind drifting slowly. She wasn't sure what she was thinking about, it all just moved through in a relaxed state, topics on any and every nature. The ring on her finger glowed with that soft 'glow in the dark' look as it slipped off one finger, the warm water soothed her, the engine's hum sending Aurora into a relaxed trance. And slowly, as if she was being hypnotized, she slipped underneath the water and sank to the bottom where she lay there.

And then, they fell into an odd trance, Nymph and Aurora both, with the little silver ring sitting nearby on the pool bottom. One of Aurora's eyes darkened more and more till it was a golden brown, but she didn't blink, just lay there. One hand reached out for the ring, but she only held with a relaxed and slightly curled up hand.

Slowly, she started to change, although it wasn't quite as obvious as it used to be...
