I would close my eyes and think back in time to when I used to help my family as they were almost always on the farm, I would water the plants. But I always felt at home when we went fishing during the seasons that we could. I felt close to the water. I lived near it within the cave and when Domen’yun wasn’t on the top of the cave (I guessed he was off to handle affairs of his territory) I would be up there, sitting and looking at the ocean as I thought about how it flowed and moved. My eyes narrowed over at the ocean as I stood on the ground this time, training my physical body, though at the moment I was resting. I knew my master wouldn’t like me to practice on his mountain, so I attacked sand and moved in the sand, attacking invisible opponents that I had made up in my mind. I shook my head after a short amount of time and looked at the blows in the sand. They flowed like water, and I thought. I placed a hand on my chin as I had a thought, “Demonic arts, spiritual arts and supporting and healing? Aren’t there elements in this magix...?” I would change into my vaspire form and jumped into the air, floating to the height of two and a half meters, my new jumping limit, and flew off as I went towards the cast to test out my theory of if I was really connected to water.
Landing on the beach, I looked into the waters using the moon to see and thought, “I really hope that this works...” I would place my hand near the surface of the darkened water and felt like he was not home, but felt that he was connected with the water. Closing my eyes, I would stand and think about how to 'control' water. Would I be able to use it any way I wanted? There was only really one way to find out. Placing my hand out again, I would send a bit of force into the water to see if I could pull out a little bit of it. That didn't work as I hoped, as all I did was create rippling waves on the water's surface. A growl of frustration later and I thought this might take longer than I thought. I would calm myself down and place my right hand against the surface of the water this time and drew up. I watched the water drip with my glowing crimson eyes, watched of the fluid moved. I had never stopped to notice it, so I thought that may assist in my control of the element its self. I might have been able to call on my master for help, or maybe even Kazakura, but I refused to do it. I could learn this on my own. With watching the water once, I would repeat my action and watched the water carefully, how it dripped and how it melded into the surface, each one creating its on ripple. I closed my eyes as I listened to the water drip. Lastly I watched the substance move towards the center of my hand before dropping. It was a bit weird at first, these thoughts of it being used in this manor.
Releasing a low sigh, I would shake my head slowly and watched the water moved. I would send my energy out and caught those small 'particles' of water and blinked. Had they bent to my will? My left hand hovers above the the surface of the dark liquid as I try and pull water from the bigger area. I looked and saw only a small amount- about the same as the particles I had grabbed. It wasn't like I was controlling huge amount like I really wanted. Shaking my head, I would move the particles together, making heavier water. It fell, out of my control. In other words, from what I felt from this, this water was harder to learn to control then I had originally thought. I stood up and narrowed my eyes at the water as I thought about the kind of technique I was trying to use. I closed my eyes as I focused on the water and place my hand down as I willed the water up. Not much of it actually went up, but it was still amazing to watch the water move, even the tiniest parts of it. I longed to get more water from this technique I had no name for. My eyes close as I focus just a bit more and calmly will the water up. Just a little bit more joins, within the small particle like drops of water come "blobs" that weren't all that big. I would shake my head in a disappointed manor. Water was supposed to connected with me, why wasn't this working? I closed my eyes to focus again- how many times must I try this ability? I allowed the water I had, scant as it was, to drop back into the pool of dark liquid. The sound of droplets would alert animals and maybe humans in the area, but I was sure that my master had described at least my appearance to the workers so I wasn't a complete stranger to them.
I would focus and bring the same mixture again, not even enough water for the real technique of Watyrbased. I was getting frustrated and flew them together, the glob of water splashing back into its wet depths. I would turn slightly in my anger towards it- no, it was frustration. Maybe it was because I had messed up around my master. Well, now blood could not stain his precious cave. And any messes could be cleaned up fast, once I actually got this technique down. I thought back to what I had done with Nova's corpse- I had covered it in sand and then pounded and recovered and pounded again with my full strength. The male's body was decimated and likely only buried bloody pulps in the sands now. I had looked at my hand then too- dripping with that sticky crimson liquid, slower then water. I released a low sigh as I sat down on the beach and closed my eyes. I would just listen for now, to get a better feel for the noise of the water. Who knew but Kazakura, for I did not think that my master really knew all that much about elemental magix. So I listened carefully- not judging the sound, but merely listening to it. It sounded heavy the further from land it went with lower sound, and as it came in a sharper sound, and the foam.
It was then that I had a thought. I looked down at my palm after another minute and thought to myself, "What if I just use the real water as a model... and create my own water?" The elements were in the air, which I did not know, but there was also water vapor- the steam that came out of areas like onsen. I would try that and stand up slowly, unrushed as the calm waters of the night. My hand pointed down as I focused my energies there and calmed down, remembering the dripping of the water from when I had placed my palm on it, the sounds that it produced. I could practically feel the cool water moving along my hand towards the center of my palm. I visualized the feeling and the feel of the water slipping along the palm calmly and soothingly. Ah, I really did feel much better this way. Calm like the dark sea… I gave a chant like Kazakura seemed to every time she used a spell, “Calm as the dark waters of the sea…” And after the chant I felt something wet on my palm. The sensation was water, dripping from it and falling to the ground. My eyes widened- I was astonished. I could actually create real water from my palm! I was so excited that I broke my concentration on the spell and it ceased to be. I stopped and stared- I wanted more. I would recall the phrase I had changed not too long ago and repeat, "Calm as the dark waters of the sea." I had pretty much shot my concentration and with the spell just learned and easily interrupted, it was unlikely to happen again for a few more tries of the spell.

I walked along the beach not far from the cliff side I had been banished from. I was almost fully healed except for the slight bruise to my cheek. It felt good to be walking alone. Kaelas was out hunting and I could not help myself as I walked I glanced towards the direction of the cliffs. As I walked, I sung to myself, lost in thought. It was not often that people got to hear my voice. In fact the only one who had heard it in a long time was Domen as he requested, no ordered me to sing for his entertainment.
Now that the time has come Soon gone is the day There upon some distant shore You'll hear me say
Long as the day in the summer time Deep as the wine-dark sea I'll keep your heart with mine Till you come to me
A tear slipped out and I reached up and wiped it away. The wind from the ocean taking it from me as I continued on my path, my feet bare and my silver hair caught in the silver strands of the moonlight, giving me a halo of the purest color. My robe the same silver as the one on the shore of the lake that night I had finally given in to him. My silver armband adorned my right arm and the tattoo of the butterfly on the left. the ocean waves crashed around my feet as I walked taking care of my foot prints.
There like a bird I'd fly High through the air Reaching for the sun's full rays Only to find you there
And in the night when our dreams are still Or when the wind calls free I'll keep your heart with mine Till you come to me
I was not really looking at anything but the sand at my feet, my hands gently swinging at my sides, I move ever onwards, the sting of his hand still haunting my memories. It left me saddened to the point that I stopped and looked upon the waters where the moon danced and skipped across the waves. Little did I know just how alluring this all made me seem. A mermaid walking across the ocean waves, sparkling from the moon kissed light, the foam not even daring to cling to me.
Now that the time has come Soon gone is the day There upon some distant shore You'll hear me say
Long as the day in the summer time Deep as the wine-dark sea I'll keep your heart with mine. Till you come to me
I would not have noticed the vaspire anywhere near since I was lost in my own thoughts and my own world. But If he was close enough he would have seen and heard me coming. As my song came to an end, I glanced in the direction of the cliff side cave and knew that as long as the bruise on my cheek remained, I was not 'fully' healed. I wondered if he magically enhanced it to remain that way as a mark. A demon's mark. What a wonderful thought. I let the wind take another tear from my cheek and let it loose into the salt water of the ocean. ! -- FINISH POST HERE>

The type of training I was doing was strenuous to my stamina, so I would revert back into my human form as I released low pants from the use. One could never tell how a vaspire with morals would act, or one that belonged to a religion banned. I would look out at the ocean- it always made me think upon the ancient legend of the goddess and the holy dragon. If one even knew the story other than me... I would think it ironic. It was similar to Kazakura and my master's relationship. A dominant male that had taken a student under his wing, a human, as I used to be. And a woman that had been beautiful as summer's rays and winter's snow, untouched and fresh. I would think of this legend as being played out with myself being the boy. I closed my eyes for a moment before a voice caught in my ears- I didn't know who's it was at first, but as one might expect from a Priestess, it was beautiful beyond measure of normal choir voices. Just because I was now a blood sucking monster that fed off anyone I wished did not mean that I couldn't feel. My eyes darted around until I caught sight of Kazakura. Seeing her reminded me of the master's punishment to her... the slap, it still range through my head. A blue frown slipped onto my lips as I looked away at the dark waters of the salty ocean. A crossroads, where the student and the woman meet with the dragon master slept. This was where the story its self ended- where the apprentice had to make his own choice. I had always thought it romantic that the two would join together, but Kazakura was not like the ones of legends. My eyes continued to look over the ocean's waters as my arms felt limp as I repressed the urge to run to her and comfort her- what could a mere boy do? I would speak, thought not looking at her, "Priestess. Watch where you tread on the sand... I wouldn't want you to trip and fall into the waters." Despite learning on my own to wield water, my voice sounded dry, with a mix of sadness. My hands gripped so hard that the knuckles were turning white.

I was lost in my thoughts until I heard a voice near me and almost jumped. The voice was familiar and I shook my head to myself. What had I expected? He would not be here. He did not care. I sighed and looked at the vaspire. My mood was depressed enough that the thought of sealing him was not foremost in my mind. "I will not fall in. Even so, I can swim." It dawned on me that I did not even know his name. "I am Kazakura, the High Priestess of the temple of time." The last part was not said in a snobby fashion, more like I was so use to attaching it to my name, it was almost as if I had forgotten the other parts to my name. It was who I was, like a clan name. "I believe do not know your name. And calling you Vaspire seems a bit like calling you a dog. What are you doing so far from your master?" I asked in a neutral tone as if I was purely curious. The only infliction was upon the last two words, a bit of sadness crept into voice. Otherwise I was keeping my normal tone of voice. ! -- FINISH POST HERE>

So, her name was Kazakura... and no wonder she was powerful, a jewel in Domen'yun's collection. I would shift my eyes to look at her when she said that she didn't know my name: she should have heard it twice by now, when I first met her and when I told my master my name. I really didn't feel all that great at point and looked out into the sea, saying, "Rei is my name... since there are none left of my people, I suppose a surname is useless." A low sigh would slip past my lips at her question of what I was doing. Well, to be honest I almost felt like I was avoiding him, but I kept that to myself as I said, "I'm learning magic, Lady Kazakura." I would close my eyes and revert into my possessed for and show her by creating a basket ball size blob of water after chanting, "Rise from the ocean depths." There was no happiness in my tone, only neutral sounds. I cared little for my self discovery now, my abilities to use water. I didn't expect Kazakura to respond positively- after all, a Priestess was one to change those possessed back into humans. If she sealed me, I would surely die trying to do my master's will. How strange I found it, that I cared for such a thing... normally death meant we visited our ancestors. If I died, i my beliefs, I would meet the whole village.

"Rei. That is right. I'm sorry, but a lot has happened in the short amount of time since we met." I settle onto a protruding rock and watch him as he creates the bubble and I smile. "Well magic is a wonderful area of study. Can I make a suggestion that might make things easier." I slip off the rock and move beside him. Why was I going to teach him magic when I was suppose to be sealing his powers. I sgh and shake my head. This was just another example of Domen's pull on me. I would not seal him after that smack. It had hurt more emotionally. "My grandmother was the one who taught me that there are spirits everywhere. Especially when you are dealing with the elements. She was the one who taught me that in order to have better control over an element, you needed to know the name of the elementals that controlled them. One such elemental for water, there are many, is Undine. If you call upon her you can use part of her control over the water as your own. Or you can find out the name of a different water spirit. There is also Salam and Efreet for fire. Eilio is a time spirit. You do not have to use it this way but they can help you train." Just to show him, I took a stance and called upon my own element of fire. "Efreet, grant me your power" A small fire ball formed in the palm of my hand and I tossed it into the sea. It was almost a perfect circle and well contained. "Just think about what you want to do with the spell and the element will do it for you." I glanced to him to see if he this was doing any good and if he understood what I was trying to say. ! -- FINISH POST HERE>

So she had forgotten- and that things were happening so fast as her excuse. Great, yeah, that really helped my self-esteem. I had produced the ball of water in any case and wondered why it didn't always work. She then wanted to make a suggestion and headed my way from the rock perch she had been on. She was going to help me? I felt strange... it wasn't love, it my lust acting up again. Domen'yun had hurt her- physically and likely emotionally. The mark on her face made that painfully obvious to me. She would suggest using the names of elemtal spirits in my training, though more specifically Undine, a spirit of water. How had she learned this? Easily answered, from her grandmother. Three more names were given for the magixs: Salam, Efreet, and Eilio; Two for the element of fire and one for time, respectively. I would nod my head as she gave an example by using a fire ball. My eyes narrowed at it as my head flew up as I called on my elemental Spirit, "Undine, lend me your power to smother." Water would form from the depths and wrap around the fire, likely putting it out. My hand would fall as I thought about the spell I had used- to smother enemies. I would look at Kazakura and nodded as I spoke with a low sadness in my voice, "Thank you, Lady Kazakura." I would turn my eyes to the ocean and watch it for a time, or maybe until she asked me something. I couldn't place Nova's body into the Ocean. That is where I sent my father and mother's physical bodies, along with most of the villagers that I could gather. The ocean and waters were my strength and a place of great sadness for me. I suppose everyone has to sacrifice something for greater power, though what Domen'yun had sacrificed for his was unknown to me.

I smiled at him as he used the name of the water spirit. The water formed around my fireball and smothered the flames out. I put my hand down and nodded. "Good Job. I can bring you a few of the scrolls that we use to teach magic the next time I return from the temple. If you want..." my voice died off as he looked out to sea. He must want to be alone. I bowed and turned to continue on my way. "I shall leave you in peace unless you need something else?" If his answer was to the negative effect, I would continue on my stroll. ! -- FINISH POST HERE>

My gaze would shift to Kazakura after a moment as I say, "Lady Kazakura, could you stay? There's something I'd like to tell you about." I needed to get something out in the open within our family- about my old family. I would sit on the sand an motion for her to sit if she liked. My white hair would phase back into the black version, but eyes shifting to gray. I would feel better if I told her this in my human form, rather then in my monster form. I waited for her to make her selection of sitting or standing. I need to have a seat whenever I thought about the story. It was close to being that I had taken, the other day. Death himself, or at least a version of Death was mine. It wasn't my view of Death, so to me it was just a reaper. So really, there were two things, but only one that I would let her know. Telling her I contained the thing of death likely wouldn't sit well with her.

I nodded to him and sat on the sand beside him. What strange company I had kept recently, a demonic tiger, a higher order demon, a vaspire. Was I turning to the dark side? I hoped not. I sighed and listened to the ocean and to him. What would my future hold? How would I affect what would come later. My mind went back to the pebble and water. I glanced to him as he talked my mind both on what he was saying and on what was bugging me. Perhaps I should return to my temple and never return. Perhaps he had no more use for me. It was confusing. He had said a lot in that abrupt ending. But did I believe it? Or was I reading too much into it? I would leave him like I would leave Kaelas. It made me weak and easily manipulated by him. He was like a drug to me, but I was nothing to him. In fact here I was being drawn to the cave, and he was not even here. If he was, he would have already been out to retrieve me. That was how are meetings usually ended. I would be near where he was and he would find me.

A low sigh would come from me before I started my tale, “Once... four years ago, I lived in a small village by the sea. It’s name was Heiwa, meaning peace. We went to war with no one, even with everything going on. A fishing and farming village. With no need for warriors. Until I was eleven. That was when the war started to effect us. The boys were given some training in weapons, besides our bows for hunting. I can’t remember any of that training. I lived in terror for the next year after. Then a spirit came through the lands, and passed our village. An army chased him, and in their fevor, destroyed my village. All I remember that day is the gore. People on pikes and limbs. The screams of the dying and the cries for help. The smell of burning wood and burning flesh. Hell for a twelve year old. And then it was my turn to be punished for no reason. A sword slash to the chest, one already slick with blood. That of my mother and father. Only that saved my life. I awoke a day later, the cut clogged over with my own blood. How I lived, I don’t know. I spent four years looking to protect people from such terror that I had experienced, Lady Kazakura. Four long years, four long and lonely and acquired my scars on my arms, chest, and legs. All for an impossible purpose. I had hoped to do better in the city- you know the rest of the tale. I’m a monster… but I refuse to give up.” I felt slightly better, but still depression stung my being as I said, “Lady Kazakura, I know its something out of my place to ask. But until I become a truly useless tool to Domen’yun… don’t exorcise my power. For the first time, I don’t have to run. To scatter around. I don’t want to leave this new…” I struggled with the word before I said it, “Family. I don’t want to lose you because master Domen’yun find me a useless human being.” I wasn’t sure if I got the message to her, but she was seeing a side of me that Domen’yun never would.

Another soft sigh, I seemed to be doing that a lot lately, and glanced to him after he had finished his story. "The way my magic works, Rei, is that I would temporarily seal your powers. I do not have the power to take out the vaspire part of you. Also, Domen would most likely do much worse than smack me as punishment, so you are safe." I looked back out into the ocean and rose to my feet. "I am sorry for your loss. I truly am. You called us a family." I let out a dry laugh and shake my head. "I am nothing more than a simple plaything to a higher order demon and a magic teacher to a vaspire. And the sad thing is, that same demon is likely to find someone to take my place and I may end up in that very ocean." I finally glanced at him and smiled weakly. "Now we both know each other's fears. Perhaps it might help us both in the future. What a strange 'family' we make?" After the last was said, I glanced back to the ocean and sighed with the crashing waves. ! -- FINISH POST HERE>

I would listen to Kazakura- is that all she thought of herself, then? I would look at the ocean's water as they lapped onto shore before I looked back her and likely did something that would surprise her- I gave her a hug. I simple one, a hug that a teen might give his mother after making up as I spoke for the duration if she let me hold her, "Lady Kazakura... you think so low of yourself. You are irreplaceable to Master Domn'yun. I am the one he can replace." I would pull away if not already to let go of her and then fall to the sand as I looked up at the sky as I said, "Besides... I saw the way he spoke to you and his actions... heh... to be needed in a manor is my real desire, I suppose. And yet, I'm a simple pawn. You cannot be replaced, my lady..." I would close my eyes- it was the truth to me, one who was outside the relationship. All I sounded like was truly just a pawn. I closed my eyes as I listened to the waters, I sad tune from our reverberating in my mind. I could feel it... all that I thought I felt for her was lust. For her blood and body. But thats all there was to it. For me, it was painfully obvious now. All too obvious in fact.

I was surprised by his words and his hug. I let him embrace me and awkwardly patted him on the back. So he thought that I was irreplaceable to Domen. I wondered if it was true or if Rei was looking to be nice. He thought as little of himself as I thought of myself. "From what I can tell of Domen'yun, you are male. That makes you better than me to his old world manners. He seems to be older than either of us. Much older." My hands cross my chest and grab onto the opposite arm, rubbing as if cold. This was after he stepped away. "Is training you, at least you have a solid purpose and a place. I am still unsure of my own place. He was my first and my only, Rei. But for him, I do not know what I am. I must be stupid." ! -- FINISH POST HERE>

My hair shifted to white as my eyes regained their bloody color to them, glowing in the darkness as I replied, "Place...? All males train and are trained that use a weapon. It is default, devoid of meaning. Master Domen'yun is doing nothing more then modeling me like clay to be his puppet. I'm little more then that- you are his special person, Lady Kazakura. Your place is by his side. My place is not in the picture. If you want, I'm a faceless child that the father molds into a profession. You are his beloved. He may hold old world traditions, but there is one thing that overcomes that, and that is love." I would point my hand out at the sea as I said, "Gliding on the watyer's surface..." I would stand and walk onto the water's glassy surface as I turned to her and said, "Master Domen'yun is just a hard man. He told you rest up and recover. What does he tell a puppet made of wood that is replaceable and barely damaged? Get to work, but leave me be." I turned as I looked at the moon, closing my eyes as I said, "The death of my village forced me to grow up a bit early, but... I can tell that Domen'yun, no matter what he may say or do, has deep feelings for you. They are buried and all males have a hard time expressing them." I placed a hand to my shoulder and squeezed as I continued to look at the moon. I let go of my lust her and now, letting the wind carry it away and out to the salty waters that I stood on, motionless.

I watched him walk along the water and thought upon his words. Love? No. Domen felt lust of that I was certain. I felt for him, we seemed to be in the same boat. But where do you go from this point? No amount of words from the other would work. We each saw different things. "Rei, you are more than a puppet. He is training you yes, but I figure that he would not keep you so close if he did not have other plans. He gives you a purpose. Trust me, I have dealt with those in power for a few years. He will have something in mind for you and does not expect you to die anytime soon. I am a healer, I can bring you back, he was right in that. I cannot bring myself back. I am not a fighter, but when I need to, I can kill. Domen'yun and I are mirror images. So much alike and yet so opposite. I do not know what to do. And I am sure you feel the same. Unsure where to go next." I offered him a hand and motioned him back to shore. "Perhaps we can weather this and find our places. We can just accept him as he is." ! -- FINISH POST HERE>

I listened to her as my thoughts swirled- I had told her many personal thoughts and ideas, ways I felt and showed her some of the ways my mind worked. I had thought she would think I was foolish and leave me to stare at the moon. But she did not, and in fact, I turned to her as she spoke. She thought that I had a place? Ridicules, Domen'yun thought little of me, there was no path for me other then a trained warrior. But there as something in one of her phrases- I could be revived as many times as one had the stamina. Kazakura was irreplaceable because she could not revive herself. Still, it seemed words were not getting through to her. About as much as my place by Domen'yun- for all I knew, I was just going to be a pet project. I was pretty much useless in my human form, so unless I gained something else to be of use, what point would there be in my staying at his side? However, I would not show her such doubts on my face as I gave a slight smile. She said that she was unsure where to go next. Ever since my village was destroyed, I was the same way- unsure of where to go next, where to get the next meal, or if I would survive. I wondered if she knew those feelings- the uncertainty of true poverty. When she beckoned me to come I hesitated for a moment in my mind, but my body moved its self to get off the water. I would take her hand and looked down at her, not in a hungry sexual manor, but in the manor of a person who knew some of my pain. She offered that we weather this together. I did not ponder on that, and my mind was made up as I spoke in a gentle voice, "Yes... I will weather this with you." Though I had accepted Domen'yun for what he was long ago. Even before Death became my last card to play.
