Emi tried to create water, but he just couldn’t figure out how.
He had tried humming, but he wasn’t getting a response from any water anywhere.
In fact, it just felt unbearably hot to him. Emi couldn’t feel any water
anywhere in the field. Every time Emi had used his powers water had been around
in spades. Emi sat on the dirt path, cradling his head in his hands.
He glared touching his head. He was
burning up, but he wasn’t sweating.
“If I was sweating, maybe I
could use that to water these fields.” Emi thought
to himself. “It wouldn’t do much though.” He looked around at the miles of wilted roses bushes.
A woman stood at the balcony again. She frowned as she stared into a
clear pond. She turned at a rustling sound.
“He’s been taken to the dying rose
fields,” She stated as she looked at the figure behind her. She turned back to
lean over the railing. “If he can not revive those fields, I’m afraid the rose
deity will turn violent.”
“She does jump first into action,” the
male figure crossed his arms. “What do you suggest, my lady?”
“Send the deity of death,” She ordered.
“The boy already knows Grey. He will not have too many questions of him.”
“As you wish my lady.”
Grey smirked as he leaned back in his chair. “So the new guy has
been kidnapped by the rose deity?” He tapped his fingers on the arms of his
chair rhythmically. “This will be fun to watch.” He leaned forward to stare at
large screen showing Emi and Carmen on it.
“Do you intend to just watch?” the man who was just with the
elegantly dressed woman at the balcony stood with his back against the wall.
“Am I not allowed to?” Grey fringed innocence. The man
growled in response. Grey laughed as he dusted off his shirt. He stood and
dusted off his pants. “Relax I’m going.” He walked to the man and leaned in
with a smile. “Don’t be upset if things don’t go the way you want. After all, you’re
the ones hiding.” The last word came out as long and song like. With that, Grey
spun out of the door.
Emi was sweating.
He growled though, all the sweat he was feeling and there wasn’t enough to put
on the plants. Though we was trying.
“I need to start
drinking more water,” Emi thought to himself.
“So how’s it going?” Carmen asked as she ran up to him. Her
eyes were super hopeful.
Emi stared at her wearily. A part of him wondering how she
wasn’t dying in this heat.
Carmen the Rose Deity was a short woman. Her red hair went
down her back and stopped short at her waist. She wore sandals with a rose
design on them. A simple tank top and shorts.
“Uhm…” Emi felt his tongue weigh down in his throat.
KA-BOOM!
The two jumped as they looked over a mere few yards away and
found that a portion of the garden had been turned to dust.
