CHAPTER 7
Solind's hand grasped Tamari's as she got up from the ground. She stumbled a few times before having complete balance on the tips of her toes. The First Controller, right in front of her. She coughed weakly, wiping dirt from her face. She thought she'd ever see the sight. "How did you find me?" she asked hoarsely. He huffed. "How did I not see you? Your power was like a homing beakon to me." he helped her to a log so she could sit comfortably. "What do you mean?" she questioned, glancing at the middle aged man. He looked elegant, in a way, with white skin and brown hair. His body was ripped with muscles that was covered politely with a white shirt that draped over the thin chain mail underneath. His eyes were the most stunning though; they looked as gold as the sun, full of life and free spirit. He stared at her behind these eyes as he conteplated her question. "Well since your seal was opened, your power was leaking out in tremendous measures. It basically is a giant sign saying; 'hi I'm a Creator'. Ive never seen power leak that quickly out of a person. I knew it must be Temari, since of the Natural Change. You are Temari, Protector of the Wood, aren't you?" he answered. She nodded. "But I just found out from the Second Controler, Mikan. He tried-" she started. "You've met Mikan?", he interrupted, "What has he done now? I know he's been after the Creator's as soon as he mastered his powers from Mother Nature and Father Heaven, but I didn't realize he'd go for the young ones this early..." he growled, furrowing his heavy eyebrows. Temari sighed heavily, her lower lip trembling. "I don't understand. If I'm truly a Creator, why am i so young? Why was my power leaking so heavily? Why did my leg turn into a tree? There's so many questions I need answered, but no one has answered any of them! I don't know how to ask people for help because I've been alone all my life! Damian was my only friend and now he's gone!" she half screamed, half sobbed. She was physically and emotionally drained, and the Controller could see that. He placed a loving arm on her shaking shoulders. The morning sun finally rose, and sleepiness over took Temari. His comforting touch made her feel safe, and for once, she had someone to lean on. Her sleepy eyelids went down with rising sun, tears of past slipping uncontrollably. "You don't worry. I'll explain everything." he soothed, picking her up as she fell to sleep.
Temari had woke the day after, feeling hot and stuffy. She had found herself in a small shack in the morning, and discovered the Controller outside on his pourch a few moments later. She coughed to gain his attention and he turned to face her. "I'll give you your explainations. I know you deserve them." he said before she could speak, "Would you like some tea?" After she sat in the big rocking chair with her warm mug of tea, Solind sat down with a semi-serious look on his face. He cleared his throat politely and clasped his hands together. "Where to begin." "How old are you now?" he asked. "Fourteen." she mumbled. He smiled softly. "You are a reincarnation of your former self. There are Three Creators, just like there are Three Power Changes." Temari chocked on her tea. Reincarnation? Three Tamari's? "I know it sounds odd, but each Creator has three sides of their body that correspond with their powers. You, the physical one I see right now, has the Natural power. It is passed in each human who possesses it for their whole life, but doesnt activate it. You activated it when you joined the institution, correct?" he asked again. She nodded, speechless. "The older, original Creator has been maintaining control over earth and forest for this entire time, but half it power inside of you. She has the power control of a true Creator. Lastly, your spiritual form, the White Wolf, is the never ending soul of both you and the older reincarnation of you. It usually kicks in when your in need of assistance in life or death experiences. That answers why you're so young. Until you learn to control your power you wont be able to merge with your three bodies and become a true Creator. Only then will you be able to defeat Mikan. I'll give you a second to take this all in." he ended, looking at her with his brilliant eyes. She looked off into space with wonder and confusion. There was anouther Temari out there? And there was a collaboration between the spirits to form a Wolf? Wait... "I've seen that wolf before!" she cried out, "When I fell from the sky I saw the apprition of a White Wolf!" Solind sipped his tea and stared into the forest. "Its good you've met your Spirit before. It makes things easier to explain." he agreed, "Since your seal was opened for the first time and you hadnt been taught how to control it, it shed more power than normal. That's how i found you. That's also why your leg turned into a tree, like you said. Since your seal, splitting you from Creator power, had opened, your Nature power had combined to make you one with nature. It's a complicated process." He paused for a moment. "I think I've cleared up enough for now. I want you to tell me everything Mikan said or did to you when you were captured." Temari told him everything, finally getting it off her chest. "That leaves us to one finally question," Solind said quietly, "how are we going to stop him?"
