CHAPTER 10
Temari had been asleep for two days straight; tired from having the short conversation with her Creator self. When she had woke up, her body tingled as energy poured into her (both Natural and the Creators) by the bucket fulls. She hadn't seen this coming. When she was finally able to move, she had breakfast in bed, prepared by Solind, and rested her sore muscles a little longer. To warm them up, she jogged into the forest, feeling the cool morning breeze on her neck. Some how, she felt different in the forest, like when she swore she heard whispers in the wind being carried from affar. Solind had told her to meditate in the forest to try to feel her Creator energy without opening the seal. When she got to a firm, large tree, she lept onto its studiest branch and meditated. She knew she wouldnt turn into a tree like she did before because her seal was locked, but Solind told her he might be able to control her Creator power more if she tried. So she sat on the tree, trying to find the energy within her that resembled a Creator. Instead, she found another energy, not hers, but an energy that seemed somehow linked to her. The tree. She had successfully communicated with her Creator self so that she could feel the forest. The leaves rustled like it felt their communication, and an unknown wind gusted against her. Nature was calling back.
She tried hard every day of the next week, trying to build up her Creator strength as she felt the trees energy. Soon she knew every rock, pebble, boulder, dirt clump, sand pile, tree, shrub, bush, flower, and indiviual parts of a tree in the entire forest. It took her great effort to talk to smaller things, like pebbles, but she worked for hours on end trying to perfect her Natural and Creator energy. Soon, it took her less time and energy to respond to the Natures call, and she learned how to block out unneciasary voices in her head. Before the next Sunday came, she had already fully adapted her Natural and Creator powers.
"You have grown extrodinarily fast, Temari. You have almost become a full fledged Creator, but we are missing one thing." he congradulated. He spied Temari as he talked. He couldnt believe how much she had grown. Normally it would take years to develop the skill she controlled in only two weeks. Her muscles were now prominant from constant Nature training, but her energy was balanced from the Creator power that she developed. And she had a motive. Not only did she want to save the world from its destruction, but also to save a special someone; Damian. She hadnt talked about him much, since her emotions were still rising and falling like a sea in a storm, but the look in her eyes told him that she was serious about getting him back. He smiled. He had created a good omen for the world who was about to be unleashed. "My Spiritual power." she answered for him, bringing Solind back to reality. "Yes, yes. We will try and recover your spirit so we can join your three bodies as one to become the savior of this realm. We will do this through sleep." he said. "What do you mean?" she asked, confused. "If you dream, that is the time your spirit lingers into a different world, a different realm. If you can guide it to our realm, you can speak to it. It will take multiple tries before succeding, but if this works, you and your bodies can combine as one." he explained, "But until night dawns us, I think we should hang out. No training. No lessons. Just relaxation, alright?" Temari nodded. It was unlike her reutine, but she needed some rest. They sat at the fireplace, a storm outside splashing waves of rain on the roof top. Solind had prepared a stew for them to eat and it warmed them up as the night slowly came. "Why do you want to save the Creator of Water, Damian, so badly?" he finally asked. Temari stopped sipping her stew. Memories floated to the surface of her brain that she been pushing down. She thought of him all the time, but she didnt say anything to Solind untill now. "Damian has been my savior for a lot of things, and now i want to save him for once." she said steadily. "The first time I met him was in a storm. I had no parents to speak of when I was seven, so I walked down a slippery road alone. It was alongside a cliff, so I was always careful, but my mind was distracted because of people who were bullying me that day. I slipped off the cliff side, and grabbed a root before I could fall to my death," she reminenced, "and I swore I saw an angel. A boy, my age, helped me out of that predicament. I thanked him, of course, and began to notice him at school. At this time in my life, I didnt hide my tatoo's so I was bullied constantly. Damian, the boy that saved me once, saved me again and took on the bullies. He got beat up for me, so I messed them up." she chuckled. "From then on we made black masks to cover our tatoo's and we became best of friends. Bullies never bothered the "Two Masks", what they had named us. We didnt care though. He helped my training in the institution and helped me through my depression. He has been my savior, now I need to become his. That's why I know I cant die, because I have a duty to fulfill to the world, and Damian." she ended. Solind smiled politely, patting her hand softly. "As a Creator, I will not let him get hurt more than he already has. I will not let the world die more." she said firmly with a glint in her eye, "But first I need to get my spirit. And then Ill be there, Damian. Just you wait."
