We passed the trip home through the porthole in silence. Narexurk had gotten quite when he got his answer from me. When i stepped into the castle grounds it seemed like something was missing. All the powerful presecnes had emptied out of the house. everyone was gone, i was the only elite here.... just wait was that Rexi's presence.... My mind went a small bit loopy as i thought of the fact that i was most likely the only one in charge. No one here but me for the leader to pick on. Please no!
"I'll be with my apprentance. Ximh SHOULD be back soon, but seeing as he's visiting his past he might take a while. But again i suggest you seek him out to train you... At least you now he won't become possessed and attack you..." i looked away from him in disappointment at myself.
"You didn't mean to i know." Narexurk said softly. He left me be as i headed towards the stairs of the East Tower. I headed towards Lucinde's room and upon opening the door i went to her bed. Resting my hand on her pillow i stared into the pitch black darkness. My hands fumbled trying to find where her head was on the table. I couldn't find it, my hands went to where her body should be resting. The bed was empty.
I rushed from the room flung open the door light illuminating the room. She was no where in her room. I rushed towards the stairs, passing my room. I skidded to a stop near the stairs and turned back. I felt a familiar presence in my room. I opened my door and saw Lucinde curled up in a chair, her hair hanging over the arm. She was trually an innocent angel.
I walked towards my own bed. I was beat. First Narexurk and training, then Ximh and Keesha.... my mind was ravished.
I took off my unifrom and put on a loose and comfy pair of training gear. The soft material flexed easier then my unifrom and i layed down on my bed.
My eyes where closed for only a moment before...
Lucinde jumped onto my bed and ended hugging me as i lay down.
"Kiki! i missed you. Where were you. I wokeded up and you weren;t there."
"Sorry Lucinde. But i had a mission."
"Mission?"
"I had to go away somewhere."
"Can i go next time?"
"Sorry Lucinde but my... boss said you can't.. but if you trian and learn to control your powers... you might be able to join me before you know it."
"YAY" she jumped on the bed and a huge gust blew throught and around the room, wiping my hair around and peices of paper went flying throughout the room.
I grabbed Lucinde's wrist and brought her to a stop and sat her down. For a second the winds continued but as Lucinde gradually clamed down so did the winds.
"How about some training?" i asked. My mind and body where all beat and tired but i had ignored Lucinde for so long now, it was about time i helped her to control and highten her powers....
"YES! lets go." she ran to the door with her hair flying behind her. I grinned at her eagerness and joined her at the door. I created a porthole and we came into the training room. Last time i was hear i had become possesed... but Keesha would be wanting some 'alone' time to mourn over the lost of her most valued possessions.....
"Will you teach me how to do that?" Lucinde asked jumping up and down tugging on my hand.
"Of course.. but later.. ok?"
"YES"
