Lucy Reborn 74 Just Be An Orb

Lucy glares at the Dark magic in front of her. It escaped her hand and was the size of a small teapot. Her Dark magic bounced around like a hyper kitten. Why is so hard to just be an orb? You don't listen well! Lucy summons it back, her magic tugging at her control. Lucy suppresses it, forcing it back to her magic pool. "Can't you just be an orb!" Lucy scowls, sitting back, and shoving her brownie in her mouth. Is it that hard? Just be a circle!

"Young Lucinda" Lucy jumps to her feet, choking on her brownie. "Chew, child" Lucy quickly swallows, and blinks. "Yes, Grandmama." Matriarch Xue was sitting on the bench, having appeared out of nowhere. She came and went silently, freaking Lucy out every time.

"You've learned to suppress your Dark magic enough it can't escape your magic pool without your acceptance. Take this Light Quartz, keep it with it, and think on its Light." Grandmama says, holding out glowing quartz.

Lucy looked at the crystal with horror. It's taken me three d.a.m.ned weeks just to learn how not to vomit all my Dark magic out. I still can't do the orb. "Don't fuss, young Lucinda. Understanding the tides of Light won't erase your control over the Dark or dimish it." Grandmama says. She tosses the crystal, forcing Lucy to catch it or be hit in the face.

Lucy holds the Light Quartz in her palm as Grandmama leaves. Laying on her cot, Lucy eyes the sky. How long will I be staying in the Maze? What if it rains or something. I'd hate to get wet. Lucy leaned back, watching the sky change, the sun slipped away, and the moons came out, along with the starts.

Lucy's lips twitched, seeing the moons s.h.i.+ning so blatantly. "I should work on the self-portrait." Lucy sits up, pulling her sketchbook from her Cosmos purse.

She sketched her small face over and over again. happy, angry, sad, gleeful. Which one is the best? Settling on gleeful, Lucy drools remembering the brownies, Chef Janice makes. I will ask Grandmama if Selena can bring me a batch. Way better than the ones I just ate.

She sketched her hair loose, as it was when she first saw it. Although Selena would habitually contain Lucy's hair in braids. Simpler to display her year bells. Why don't boys wear year bells? Hmm, is it because boys do more physical training?

I wonder when I can go home. I want to see Mommy. And Papa, and Rose, and the twins. I need to check on the babies. Mother must have gotten much bigger now.

Ahh, Lucy blinks and rubs out the lines she drew while thinking. No need to let anyone see that. Turning the page, Lucy pauses on her Runic practice page.

8 Temporal Loop

*O* Gana Rune

When is my next lesson with Master Gavin? I need to ask why my runes keep fading! I drew them so well too.

Seeing that the Eternity Ring is almost gone, Lucy starts drawing another one. Life is like my fading runes. Yet, Death is also flitting. It's not forever. I died in pain, my skull crushed, but I still breathe. I think and remember. When I die again will I still remember myself? Will I remain here in Gana or be born on Earth? Does it matter? Are there are more worlds, more planets I would be born onto. Not that I should rush to find out, Lucy thinks darkly.

I like my life. Still, it's so odd. I kind of miss that feeling. Lucy closes her eyes remembering the chilly warm, the effortless flying, the colors. Every color she knew. Orange. Purple Pink. Yellow. BLue. Green. Red. Brown. Black. White. All mixed up in my mind after I died.

It's but a lucid dream of stars that glowed. Stars that s.h.i.+ned, that burned as I was flying among them. When I die next I want to be a star! Lucy decides, remembering how huge large, overwhelming the stars had been. A misty veil of colors in the dark. Lights of color.

A glow distracts Lucy. Huh! What's going on! Lucy stared at the Eternity Ring she just wrote. It's sparkly like Master Gavin's is! Why is my rune a beta rune? Isn't that only supposed to happen if you have an understanding of the law/meaning of the Rune? How did I? Just what do I know about eternity?

Lucy furrows her eyebrows, flipping her pages to stop at her notes on Runic. Eternity Ring, The Cycle of Eternal pa.s.sage. For the world turns so does life and s.p.a.ce? Lucy stares at it. Was it because I was thinking of stars? Of the universe? Of worlds?

How far is Gana from Earth? This planet is habitable. Will one day a s.p.a.ce s.h.i.+p land on this ground? Lucy frowns hoping the two never meet. This world was too rustic, and the magic would frighten. Lucy's eyes darken. She knew what humans were capable of when scared.
