29 Testing Out Her Limits (2/2)
Hongyue tilted her head at dim outline of the moon above. The sun would be coming up soon, and this form of hers would leave with the night. She would have to wait another month just for her full sirenic powers to re-emerge again. She twirled her hair around her fingers as she debated her thoughts. Could it be possible to force out her form even when it wasn't the full moon? She had been able in the past, but she never tried it with this body. Actually, she didn't even know she could summon her sirenic form in this body in the first place anyway.
She'll try it tomorrow then.
Hongyue got up and lightly patted her dress. She was supposed to be unconscious fighting her infected body on deathbed, she better go back before they check on her again. At this thought, the water around her started to swirl faster, and soon she was well-hidden inside a ball of thundering water. All at once, the water calmed down and spun off in different directions. Once again, silence took over the bottom of the lake. Hongyue's figure was nowhere to be seen.
-------------------------------
Back at her run-down residence, Hongyue re-appeared holding her head in annoyance.
It wasn't like she was actually able to teleport from place to place using some type of time warp enchantment.
In order to move from one place to another, Hongyue had to become the element herself. It was a rare type of magic which used up much of her stamina. It only worked if the person was deeply connected with their abilities.
To travel through the element of air, she had to condense the air around her. The air would then merge into her flesh, and a magic enchantment would appear on her head. Her body would then break apart and combine into the air particles themselves. In a sense, Hongyue was the air and not the air at the same time. This was the same with water. Once she reached her destination, the particles joined back together to be her again.
Hongyue cupped her head, slightly dizzy.
Right. This wasn't her body. She needed to be more considerate and not so rash.
She moved towards her window and gazed at the moon once more. The sun was starting to rise and the soon the moon would leave her, alone in this cruel environment. Gently closing the shutters, she leaned her head against the wall across from the mirror, watching as her gem glowed dimly before it vanished. The purple and blue irises in her eyes spun in a clockwise circle fading as her black eye color came back. Her garments dispersed into the air as her appearance turned back to normal. As her sirenic form left, Hongyue was left with an aching body and sore arms. The body of a little miss who've been poisoned and stored a harmful godly weapon, the one she had before her transformation.
Hongyue shook her head in disapproval as she studied her damaged skin.
Tomorrow then.
Hongyue forced her tired body to climb up the bed and dropped down her head. Her eyes fluttered shut.
Tomorrow, she'll give them hell.
