64 Training and self reflection Zelda Interlude Part 2 (1/2)

I was back in my Nether World for now. Me and Adon just finished sparing for a bit. He thought it weird that even I like the other me didnt fight like I use to in street fighter. I was just focusing on my Lin Kuei using it with another fighting for the most part. I needed to blend everything in he said. He suggested I meditate a little since I was the Prime and all.

On some weird instinct, I tried to do what I remember I saw Ryu did in Street Fighter anime. Galtea said as long as I remember I was a game User everything would be fine. She was all smiles as of late. Especially since what happened while I was away. Other me took spending time with the crew a lot better. He worked a little less and socialized more. Since that discovery, it was recommended I fuse back with him every time I came to my Nether World then separate. This helped balance us both out as well as keep my mind fresh on what all the other me's had been doing.

”No wonder Ryu almost blew his arms apart on the beach. Damn this shit is strong.” I gritted my teeth after I was done talking. Spreading my legs some more, I felt my balance was a little bit better. Had to be centered and gather the energy. Shit was ridiculous.

”The way you are gathering is familiar. Try picturing your using Terra Destroyer.” I heard Lunabella say to me. Inside my node, my Agumon self was doing the same thing. ”Well except it isn't over your head.” She said chuckling.

”Wait .. I cant do it that way either. Terra means earth, I am water. So Poseidon force that War Greymon X used would make more sense.' Picturing the move as I remembered it, I felt the moisture in the air gathered around me. My Misty fist activated and spread all around me. ”Dang it, this is not what I wanted. Wait... no this is perfect.” Willing the water around me to focus on my hands, I felt the power grow. The water left all the other parts of my body that it covered.

”Crekk,' the ground started to break and lift around me. I felt a strong connection to Riku, Mileena, and Hotshot. Their different energies linking with my own. With a thought, I canceled the link. Some others were connecting to me as well.Mileuda was always there linked as well as Galtea, but some other ones were strong just not cemented I guess. Growing by the second as I thought about them. I was tempted to mess with this but decided not to. This was my primary focus.

I was trying to get a good feel on what was my max gathering but that would be bad considering this would be my first time. It was time to release it before I blew my arms apart or worse.

”Ha..” I said as I took a step forward. ”Do...” I pulled my shoulders in. ”Ken!” The blast fired outward.

”Kaboom!” The pressure pushed me back like a cannonball. Bending myself over into a roll, I then smacked the ground and flipped in the air dispersing the momentum. Landing on my feet unsteadily I dropped to my butt. ”Haha, that was fun.” I couldn't help laughing. Then I felt it. A flood of memories rising to the surface from my times in Street Fighter. I had focused to much on my Psycho/Soul Power and forgotten about all the other people I fought and trained with. The different things I picked up on the way. I realized I was a failure as a martial artist. ”Heh oh well. I can always improve. Street bawling was alway better then Techincal fighting styles to me anyway.”

”You should never discount anything,” Tifa said smiling from the side. ”So.. I am staying just beat you into a proper martial artist at least.”

”Yeah ok,” I told her easily. ”Sucks you developed the Pather ability. It sucks at times.”

”Meh,” Tifa said shrugging her shoulders. ”It is nowhere near your level so it is fine. Besides, we didn't know I would have a response to all your free mana. But I can totally kick so much ass with this power.” Tifa had gathered water around her fingertips with ease in front of me. Lin Kuei suited her well. ”This Misty Fist is nice. Glad you taught it to me with the other abilities. I am gonna practice some more. Oh, where did Adon go?”

”He went that way.” I pointed to the left towards the mountain gate. I wonder if those to developed a thing for each other that would be fun to watch. ”Why?”

”Oh I am going to pay him a beating,” Tifa said smiling creepily. ”He thought it funny to say I was the weakest to everyone else. Man enough to tell the others but not me himself. Let's see how weak he thinks I am after I put out his flames permanently. Oh, dont forget to digest what you just learned.” Like that she was gone.

”Time to change that.” Fixing myself into a meditation pose I drowned everything else out. I felt my Psycho/Soul power act togethor in tandem with the memories.

System: Willpower Successful 45 Adding fighting experience to Lin Kuei fighting style. Mental patch used. User martial damage has increased.

An hour later I was finished. Taking another hour I pulled more of the memories to the surface. Then the ones with Rose came along and had to divert my attention to pushing that to the side.

”That was.. something.” Nothing was gonna cause me to lose this smile. That's what I thought anyway.

”So you wanna fight?” Mileena said staring at me. Her eyes had a strange twinkle in them. I had no idea when she arrived but she was here and stronger than last we met. Her Pyscho power growing steadily. I was getting ready to answer but was stopped.

”No,” Galtea answered appearing. ”How about you go and rest already yah big lummox. You have gone past the hours you set for yourself.” She said pointing at her watch. ”You need to take breaks. What is the point of leave time if you turn it into work time?”

”Ah, your right. But it isn't work if it is fun.” Standing up I felt a little light-headed. ”No, you are definitely right. Raincheck Mileena?”

”Sure my Khan.” Mileena looked at me and smiled with the beautiful deadly teeth of hers. Placing her veil back on she winked and walked away. ”I am going to fight with the others. Quistis has been slacking off since learning Lin Kuei. What kind of teacher does that?”

Watching her walk away I looked at Galtea. ”Yah know I still want Rose gone. This is getting to be a problem for me. I can feel her presence everywhere. She is like a beacon. Constantly calling to me.”

”Azul.. you know she can make you stronger.” Galtea tried to convince me again for the next 10 minutes. When that didn't work, she changed it up a little. ”If you beat her in a fight then get rid of her. It would be proof she cant help you anymore.”

”I already beat her in a fight,” I said staring her down. ”Several times at that.”

”Beat her again.” Seeing my glare she decided against it. ”Ok then. What do you want to do then? She is soul bonded to you. Unless you can sever that on your end it won't work sending her away really. Unless..”

”Unless what?”

”You.. dont really hate her yet. That version of you that married her does. But in your other lives, did she do anything to harm you.” Galtea paused before she added, ”when you were on opposing sides that does not count. She can help a lot of the others. Those who Soul power have awakened. You can help with the Psycho portion.” Galtea looked at her screen before telling me some good news. ”Everyone has awakened an element. But not all of them have it under control yet. Something for them to work on when they get bored.”

I thought about it. Long and hard. Felt a few problems stirring. ”No, she didnt. But that does not change what she did.”

”You need to learn to forgive people. She did it for you.” Galtea touched my arm. My Overlord power felt off from her words. I remember being chained up by her and poisoned. I had to flex my mental energy to block it out.

”No! I do not have to forgive people.” My power jumped a bit as my Soul Power recoiled. ”Forgiving people did not happen in my life on my original Earth I doubt it will happen here.”

”You have to grow up!” Galtea said sternly. Realizing what she just said to me, she wanted to apologize. ”I didnt mean to..”

”Grow.. up? Are you kidding me? I am doing things that are completely against my character here. I am in a weird crazy open relationship that I hate by the way. The only reason I can stomach it is because of the people involved. I did that because you said it was the best option.” I felt my since of control start to leave me. ”You know hard it is to hate someone when you can feel how much they care about you?!”

”It is! A monogamy lifestyle will not work for a User. It has happened time and time again. Almost always ending badly. It is the reason I push this so hard. They will not live forever. You will not be able to cope with the loss.” Galtea paused letting that sink in. ”Eventually Azul, someone will die. There will be nothing we can do about it. I dont want you to break apart when it happens.”

”I.. tch..” I couldn't say much to that. I felt her concern and wanted to push it away. Not care about it like I usually do when I cant solve something that I dont like. Just as I started to, I felt a lash from my psycho power. It wouldn't let me. This is the first real-time I had a problem with it.My soul power started acting up. Then I heard my inner voices again.

'We do not have to forgive her. We can still use her. The same way we can still use Jaina and Techlis.' My psycho power said. 'We can make them tools if need be. Disposal tools that dont deserve our affections or time.'

'We are not capable of forgiveness still. That will take a better person than us to work us through that. However, we can move forward. We have to. There are so many worlds left to visit so many people to interact with.' My soul power said. 'I want to experience more. Grow more. Connect more.'

My wolf wanted to kill her. The desire to eat a person passing over me for the first time. Defintely caused me to snap out of it. I was no cannibal. But I felt why it wanted to. Any threats to the pack had to be eliminated. Or brought under control. Complete control.

”Galtea you are a piece of work you know that?” I grabbed her and used my strength to read her biotic strands while sending her my own. The bond between us kicked up a notch making it harder for her to resist. ”Haa, that is so much better.”

”Asshhole..”Galtea slurred a little. Shaking it off she was fine. ”Oh why did you share that with me? I was better off as a neutral party. Now even I want to get rid of her just a little.” She watched my face and saw me laugh a little. ”Just a little Azul! I didnt want to feel what she did to you. I cant believe she used your fears against you. Glad I never got to that level of training.”

”Yeah me to!” I gave her an angry stare. ”I would not be ok if you did that. Or if any of the others did.”

Galtea smiled. ”So you are ok with it now?” I grumbled shaking my head at her. ”A fear of living paralyzation. Not as light as I thought. And here I thought you have a fear of something irrational.”

”Nope.”
