The conversation between me and my dad was very intense because he wants to introduce potential mates, considering that Selene said fate was indeed in control of that. I told him that we should wait until I can find out more about my powers so I can train with them and become more comfortable and confident with them. I know now that I have the healing power one simple touch of the hand and my dad’s tired face was restored into a healthy state no tired lines or wrinkles. He smiled “ I have seemed to found your second power today.” “Looks like it old man, now you’re gonna have to fight to get mom off you now.” Laughing together I remember that I was on my way to the library in search of answers. “Oh dad, I was on the way to the library to get some answers about all this stuff, is there anything that could help?” He looked up and thinks for a second “ I don’t think so but I do have these old journals that might have some answers.” He pushes a button on his desk and a door opens behind him he walks around his mahogany desk into the hidden door down the hallway and on a shelf he pulls out a small milk crate full of books and brings them back over to me, “ I’m not sure what you will find, but I hope this can help with the journey.” He hands it out to me and then says “ Oh we are throwing you a birthday ball on Saturday night.”
“Oh, dad thank you! Thank you!” I squeal out. “ I need a dress and I’m going to the tattoo shop to ask about these marks might get a cute tattoo!” Kass will be very surprised and excited about this. “ take Aponie with you out to the mall, she will need a dress as well.” He said handing me his black diamond card.
Taking the milk crate of books heading towards the door, I stopped to remind him that after Saturday night I will be leaving to go on a side mission to earn some extra cash. “Hey dad, don’t forget I leave Saturday night at 1 pm after the party to go on a mission.” He nods and at the same time his office phone rings. I go back towards my bedroom to drop the books back in my room. Once I put the books down I look around for my phone gonna look on the black market and see if I can find a extra mission to go on and I find one about a old blood diamond necklace. I moved on to the next one and read the ad and see that I would have to private message the author for the details of the mission. I type a message asking for details about the mission. The author reply’s quickly “ I need a rare herb, that has healing powers, it’s a moonshine flower combination with that of zasha roots if you can find it I’ll pay you 55.6 million dollars. I replied with “okay, deal, what’s the timeline of this project?” The author reply’s quickly with “ 4 days 10 hours.” Great I have to work on my powers to grow these things. This is a big deal.
My eyes look over at the crate of books my dad gave me and I start to look through them in search of something that will point me in the direction of growing plants. Then, as luck would have it I find the book and the most interesting part is there is a marking with as moonshine flower on the front cover. “Wynter how do I choose what power to use?” I ask. “ take a couple of deep breaths in and out, concentrate on what it is you want to use like a color for example blue for water or ice, red for flame and lava, green for roots and flowers.” She continues to tell me how to focus on the magic of the colors, saying to pull the color that I need to the surface of my mind and think about how the moonshine flower would look, feel and smell. She tells me to practice making a couple different flowers first. So I try and make a sunflower first, I think about how it feels I push the power out as I think about the shape and smell of the flower. Slowly an outline of a sunflower appears in front of me, the excitement of getting it right causes me to lose focus and it turns into a twig. Ugh! I groan this is going to take more patience and effort than I thought.
Throughout the afternoon I have been practicing meditation and reading the book on how to grow the moonshine flower and zasha roots, I finally managed to make a sunflower, at this point I’m excited about that, I’m tired and hungry but before I head downstairs for dinner I try one more time to make the zasha roots. It’s forming into a beautiful plant with orange and purple spirals, that reminds me of a beet root. It’s has formed to its peak and grows into a beautiful plant, as I’m reaching for it I get a mindlink from mom telling me dinner is ready to come eat. Just as I’m getting back to grab the root it poofs into a twig! Ugh!!! I take a couple swings into the air where the root had been taking shape, and walk out my room and stomped down the staircase to the kitchen table, family all turns and looks at me. Suddenly I heard thunder coming from outside, the clouds were moving fast to cover the sun and it starts pouring rain! Everyone turns and looks at me and remember that I have powers and emotions fuel my powers too. I am going to have to practice this a lot more to control myself and my temper.
