Welcome to Gaia! ::

I held him tightly but even as I wished for it to not end, the world around us began to fade and he began to disappear from my arms. "No". I whisperd as he disappeared and suddenly I was back in the room....I clutched the charm tighter that he had given me into my palm. I would fight it...today....soon. I looked down, could this truely work...atleast I'll be able to say I tried, I thought.

Meanwhile~ The evil Runa stood up and stretched and looked down at the city. She had big plans today. She would make everyone pay. She let her mind go to the Real Runa. "So you had a visitor last night and plan to attack me today? What a laugh! You know you aren't strong enough....not even with some charm.....and what.....oh you plan on releasing that if you're near to failure? You would go that far? That would destroy much more than what even I ever could", she said laughing.

I growled and closed my eyes, "I will fight you", I said as I took partial control over my body and the fight begun.

The evil Runa cursed and faught. "It dosen't matter Runa. You just don't seem to get that. You can't beat me. Not even with Ki and his powers. And you never will be able to. No matter what", she said sapping a large portion on energy from the tiring Runa.

"I will...I will beat you....one way or another", I cried and pushed her back. Dark and light rays of energy were now showering off Runa's physical body and above us dark clouds gathered.

I let out a small gasp as I continued to push her back. It was a gasp of surprise and pain.

"Ha! You finally understand! You can't beat me because of it! There is one thing that you have that defeats yourself", my evil side laughed.

"How...why! You're feeding off my demonic energy!? I need that! It's what keeps me alive! It's what keeps this body healed! Without it we'll....you'll....", my eyes widened in horror. "So thats been your plan all along....Take that and.....no...."

"So you finally understand. It's about time". She said and took out her knives stabbing the portion of the trapped Runa that she could.

"....no...", I whispered clutching Ki's charm tighter I let out a long cry as she stabbed me and then I shoved her back taking complete control over my body. I bled in the several places she had wounded me at and I breathed heavily in exhaustion. "There is one last thing I can do to defeat you", I said through my pain and closed my eyes tightly. I will release it, the one inprisoned within me! I thought loudly enough for everyone to hear.

"Ki....I'm sorry, this was the last thing I wanted to do....I fear I will never hear or see you again. Don't try to stop her. She is....unlike anything you've ever faced. She is strong and cannot be stopped. She is an....", I didn't finish as I didn't have time to and went quickly to the large door that held her in, deep within me. I put my hand over the door faultering in my decision, myself weakening as the evil Runa got closer and closer to taking over once more. If I don't do this I die....If I do this dying is probable...what a choice, I thought. I touched the wall and lights spun around me and suddenly I was inside the wall unable to get out. "Thank you", a voice called out on the outside. "I'm more than ready to see the outside again, its been almost 15 years. You better not have anyone close as you know the promise I made to you when you locked me away. You will never get out and will know what I had to go through these long years. I will destory everything", she called out. I pounded on the wall for a moment before slowly sitting against the wall. "Yes, I remember....", I said sadly.

She took over the physical body of Runa and pulled all energy back from the dark Runa. She than cast her out in her simplest form. A grain of sand. Which she sent two streams of razor sharp air at, destoying it. She smirked as a wind picked up in the area. No one could tell the difference between her and Runa. No one could see it or sense it.

Runa smiled and a breeze caught her hair. "I feel a new wind blowing", she said. As she walked down the alley. "We will start where it all began". She cotninued walking through the alleys heading to the outskirts of the city.

I didn't move from where I sat. My head remained forward my eyes open wide. If there had only been a nother way....but atleast I'm alive right now, I thought. Ki...I never told him, I couldn't finish. Will he realize....what will happen to him....What will happen to anyone that she comes across....It's all my fault....everything, I sighed and put my head down.

Runa smiled, "Hey there Ki", she said. "Thank-you for the charm but it seems that I lost it somehow, sorry", she said still smiling brightly. She had to make sure people thought she was the real Runa for her plan to work. No one would be able to tell the difference until she snapped.

I looked at him, my smile vanished, "I thought you siad you would be able to return when I got my body back", I said playing along with all of Runa's memories and emotions. "You said you'd be alright....".

I shook my head from where I sat, she would play it up alright. Every memory, every emotion...and I was stuck knowing everything.

"I'm sorry, well...I don't know about magic really....only a little", she said and looked at him with a small smile. Runa looked off, "Well I have some things that need to be done, if you want to stay here, I will return soon", she said making it sound more like a command than a request, she did not need interference.
