Practice makes perfect. [open]

[Mawla]

Practice Makes Perfect.

Time: Late afternoon, the sun is barely visible through the trees. The day before Mawla's accident.
Weather: Cloudless, many stars and a full moon. But it will become cloudy, and maybe rainy if Mawla succeeds in her practices.
Location: The Meadow



Mawla stepped into the open meadow, taking her time to smell multiple flowers on her way. She was panting, both because it was hot and cooling down, but also because she was nervous. She wanted to learn how to make it rain. She knew she could make it cloudy, but she wanted to badly to be able to make rain. If she could make rain, she could make snow. And how wonderful would that be? She sighed and trotted into the center of the meadow, her eyes looking up at the sky. Because the rain drop shape on her forehead was glowing from the moon, maybe it meant she'd be more likely to create rain. She really had no idea. She laid down and closed her eyes, focusing on her goal.

Clouds. Rain. Clouds make rain. You make clouds. You make the rain.

Her eyes opened once more and she took in a deep breath, standing back up. She shifted on her legs before walking back into the center of the meadow. She pointed her nose to the sky and closed her panting mouth, closed her eyes, and put one paw up against her chest, her long tail sticking out straight behind her. Her ran drop began to glow brighter and clouds began to come toward her, but she lost focus, and they disappeared.

She frowned and sat down, her ears against her skull. Her head fell and she stared at the grass, disappointed. She'd done it before, she'd made clouds. She just had so much on her mind...[/color]

"Practice makes perfect, dear friend." whispered a voice, it was Lythium's soft rasping voice, but there was no body to be accounted for. No green eyes, nothing. Just then a feint grey streak floated by. It looked like a wolf, it had ears, a tail, and four paws that barely touched the ground.

"Practice makes perfect my friend, just keep practicing, keep focusing. Make it rain. You can make clouds, therefore you my friend can make it rain." the voice said again, just as raspy, and repeating what Mawla had said...

Where could this be going..... ?

"Huff and Puff, Huff and Puff." a voice says. "Relax, ease your mind… Loosen up." soon the source of sound appeared. Wings raised high, body low as if he was sniffing the ground, eyes locked on the small objects. He soon lift his head as he took notice of the female he saw earlier that day, 'Good going, talking to yourself while others are around.' He spoke to himself. His wings kept open as his body tensed up, he kept his eyes locked on Mawla. After realizing the wolf, the rain drop giving her away he soon spoke, "Hey there, Mawla? with unsure ness of her name. "What are you up too?" he says as he walks closer to her, finally his body relaxes and his wings lowered them selves closer to his side. You figure they put a lot of weight on his back, but if you asked him if they hurt his answer will always be "what hurts?" You tend to question his brain waves.

[Mawla]

Mawla's head turned and she looked around for Lythium. She couldn't find her, but soon she saw where he voice was coming from. She smiled and looked back at the sky. "Oh, Lythium. If only this was so easy, you know? I feel so weak..." She laid down and put her head on her paws, but soon enough her head lifted once again. More noise. Another voice. She sat up and turned her head in the other direction, seeing a familiar face. She smiled. She liked that she was surrounded by her friends. "Oh, Kohana. Hey.." She waited for him to be at her side and she just looked back at the sky. "Well, I'm practicing. You know, to make it rain, and, stuff." She felt embarrassed that the two of them saw her like this. It made her feel weak. With the sudden need to impress, she took in a deep breath and pulled the clouds forward. Awesome! When her eyes re opened they were a clear gold, clear like water. They almost seemed to have a tint of blue in them.
"What about you, what brings you here? Both of you?" [/color]

Kohana looked at the sky as she drew in the clouds, he soon looked at her as her eyes reopen with a beautiful color. He couldn't help but smile, he was completely normal. OR so he always thought, he never realized that his fur pattern wasn't exactly normal, and the fact he had wings. For being a 7 year old wolf he was rather built and filled with life. "Just breath in, and focus on the one thing. Once you get it down, then you can focus on more then one thing. And that is when you can say you master your gift. " He smiles as he sways his tail side to side as he sat down. His wings were perfectly lined with his back, as they decided they did not have to show off. He looks to the clouds that were above "It took me 5 years to understand how to control my gift, and I still not have master it." He says without realizing that he was close in telling her his gift. He felt like he was a demon, or the devil. Making things vanish was not a gift he really wanted, yet it was very useful in battle situation, he always came out the winner. He soon looked away after he spoke as he soon realize what he just said, hopefully the young wolf wouldn't ask anything about it.

[Mawla]

"Your gift?" She questioned, smiling, "Well, you're very lucky. The farthest I can get with my own is the clouds." She chuckled, sensing he didn't want to talk about his gift. She itched to know, though, and went about it smoothly, "So, maybe sometime, you could... show me what you can do." She grinned, turning her head to him and giving him the smile that was plastered onto her face. So flirtatious, Mawla. She stood up and looked back at the sky, though, knowing he may be uncomfortable about discussing his powers. It seemed like it, so she'd have to try her best to back off. [/color]

"Mawla, you must be confident in what you are trying to do." the mysterious ghost figure said, as it hovered to where Mawla was laying, its nose touched hers, its eyes blinked, "BOO!" it shrieked. It was Lythium, but she wasn't her normal self, it was Lythium in ghost form! "Mawla! Look! Look at this!" the figure shrieked as it floated around.

[Mawla]

Mawla smiled at Lythium and watched her carefully. She looked like she was having so much fun. "Lythium.. you're incredible." She laughed, absently leaning onto Kohana. "and as for being so confident about this whole thing.. I don't know exactly how confident I can be." She sighed, and twitched her tail. "I want to be able to do this so bad. I just feel like if I fail I'd be disappointing... everybody." She sighed and stood back up and walked over to a large patch of flowers. She flopped down onto them and rolled onto her back. She stared up at the clouds and wondered how long it would be until she was able to actually make rain. She reached a paw up to the sky and wiped away the clouds. She smiled, thinking that was pretty cool. It also meant she'd be able to make clouds again and again until it was perfected. She stared up at the stars, smiling.[/color]

Kohana watched the two wolves talk it over, he caught an interest in Lythium's ghostly forum. 'How in the world did she do that?' he questioned himself. He ignored the fact that Mawla tried to secretly get him to show his power, it was to soon to show his gift. He felt it was very powerful, he felt like it was a disgrace. He smiled, the movement of females were amusing to watch. He kept quiet as he watched Mawla and Lythium act as if they were only 2.
