Welcome to Gaia! ::

Has pretty much a style to tie in fire and water/ice. Two bunk beds one on each side of the room.

Dorinda walked into her room. "Now where did i put it?" She walked around in her room and found her katana hidden behind some bedding near the head of her bead. "But of course where else would i put it?" She laughed at herself.

dorinda entered the room once again, this time to drop off the letter that she had, somehow, sent to Nani. Looking around she looked for something to hide it in. She found an old book with real pages, but one of the pages, as normal as they appear, for the story still continues as though no pages were missing,two pages were stuck together creating a slot to hide other papers. At least she guessed that is what she thought it was made for. She stuck the letter in there, closed the book, then head back to where the others were.

Thrais appeared at the door to their room, and poked her head in somewhat timmidly. It wasn't that she didn't want to be there, but something hung the air that told her that what ever Dorinda had to say.. it was serious. It worried her, and the weaver wondered if all the time perhaps Dorinda had been dealing with something that she'd be oblivious in noticing.

The worst thing the red-head could ever imagine in the world is being alone. Being alone with your troubles is even worse, it's again unlike anything ever imagined, and only understood when felt personally. She couldn't forgive herself.. if somehow Dorinda had been through that.

"I'm here..s-sorry to kepe you waiting Dorinda." she aid warmly dispite her inner concern. And took a seat on the floor, upona cushon, giving ehr wings room to spred and rest upon the carpet.

"Weee! Bunk beds!" Maki cheered and floated, half bouncing into one on top. "You guys get attacked by angry squid in search of free sushi?"

Dorinda did a small laugh at Maki's question, and turned into a bigger grin when Prinz slightly raised his hand. "you know, we're not in school." She teased. "Well, you are right about being attacked by some gigantic water thing Maki. Thing was, the way we defeated, or I guess I should say I, was kinda, well....how should I put this...what others might consider blood-thirstyish mixed with revenge."

Dorinda scratched her head. She knew it was safe to tell these guys, after all, even after they seen it, there still friends with her. That alone was a miracle. Taking a deep breath, she just started explaining what it was. "Alright, what defeated Emerald was my dark side. I have really no idea what else to call it. But basically, when it comes out fully, I pratically lose control of what my body does physically. But I still remain in control through my mind. You see, this power of mine, it requires very very high physical and mental strength and endurance. My body needs to be like this so it can handle the excertion that it goes through. My mind though is what keeps me from attacking innocent people or my friends. If I can't control the darkness well enough, then people I care about can get hurt. But after it goes back to being dormant, I black out and go unconcious."

Taking a deep breath she continued, hoping it gave enough time for some of it to sink in. "Now I think I should explain, how and why it comes out. This ones pretty easy. It will only come out when there is a really dire situation at hand. Thrias, when you got hit by Emerald to protect me after giving me more energy, and landed in the coral reefs really hard. My mind and body knew this was getting out of hand. My darkness took over me and thus I defeated Emerald, of course with Prinz's help too. I can change back though without going unconcious or hurting the enemy, but the only way I can do that is if I'm stopped by someone I care about or love.

"And there is a little bit more to this. I didn't just get this power by some rare chance. It's hereditary, it goes down my family line, from generation to generation. My father is the one who had it. My sister never gotten it and I don't know about her children. We won't know until they reach the age of thirteen. The way we find out is that we're put into a hypnotists sleep, they give us a situation just like I went through with Thrais getting hurt, and if we react in the way our dark side will, then we have it."

After that Dorinda took another deep breath. "I know that was a lot of information so if you guys don't get it right away, go ahead and ask questions. But the reason I didn't tell you guys sooner was, well, I seemed to have lost so many friends due to when the power shows itself, that and after the incident, we never had time to talk. And Maki, I don't know if you noticed it or not, but I tried, and thankfully successfully, controlled my power that I have allowed out, on our last battle against the Orginazation. That would of been your only preview of it that I know of."

Dorinda shook her head. "No, which is a good thing. My family has done nothing but help others. I don't want to imagine someone using it for evil. But, I guess the best way to put it is, the power chooses the person. It won't choose someone that cannot handle it. My sister is a very good fighter, and she'll fight if she'll have too. Her and I are actually equals when it comes to sparing. It's when our bodies go into the dark side is when strength and endurance comes out and it will only choose the person and body that will handle it. It had skip my grandfather's generation, because if anyone did had the power but not the necessities for the..body of the dark side...they would die. So the power, in a way preserves itself by only selecting those with a body for the dark side. It's kinda like it has it's own mind."

Dorinda shook her head. "Nope, can't talk to it. That person is me. It's just me in a stronger, darker form. My body is the only thing that acts on its own. I tell it were to go and who not to attack, kinda like a robot. The reason why only someone I care about is able to stop me is, well, wouldn't you do anything heart and soul to do what they want you to do? And controlling tidbits of that power never been done before that I know of. I'm the first to try."

And she smiled. "Yeah. My sister is one of the coolest. I'm trying to find her and her family since I got seperated from Jasper. I know she'll love to meet you guys!"
