She had put the butt of her cancer stick into the empty pack she carried with her - littering is bad! - and kept wandering, aimlessly. The tall, thick tree had caught her attention. It looked almost regal, standing so strong. She took off one of her thin gloves and placed her bare skin against the trunk. Her chains started to lightly move from her back, her pupils dilating and the rest of the world fading away from her. She took a deep breath and smiled, one of her chains beginning to wrap around the trunk and sink into the wood. There was no soul, no memories or thoughts she could touch, but there was something... pure. Something beautiful. There was a life force. There was no need to grow... It existed, which was exactly what it was supposed to. Without really realizing what she was doing, she leaned forward, resting her forehead against the rough bark, and smiled. Two chains were wrapped around the tree in a kind embrace, the other two seeming to wiggle behind her.

A baseball in one hand and a bat made of dark glowing blue energy in another. The same energy that surrounded his whole body. "Can you like, talk to plants or something?" Though that wouldn't explain the chains. Back to Top   Mike Evelyn Cravens Mentor Intelligence The world forgetting by the world forgot.

Her chains stayed connected, the peace of the tree still washing over her. She smiled at the stranger, giving a shake of her head. "I was actually testing that," she said. Pulling her hands away, she pulled her chains off of the tree and let them wrap around her. "They are alive, but they dont... really have thoughts. Not that I can understand, anyways."

They're totally confident... just being. They don't NEED to think." She turned and brushed her fingers across the tree bark. "Isn't that beautiful?"

You're not feeling it." She was continuing to smile, looking between the tree and the stranger. "Don't touch it. Feel it. You're touching the tree with your hand... You touch things with your body." Then, one chain reached forward to touch the tree, seeming to sink through the bark. "You feel with the soul."

She didn't touch him, but she was obviously excited at the prospect. She hadn't met anybody else who used their soul for their power. "I use my soul, too," she said, her chains wiggling to prove a point.

Her pupils were still dilated and her body looked paler, her skin cold to the touch. "Yeah. I can't project my soul in other ways, but I have these chains. They come in handy." Her fingers trailed along the links and they seemed to quiver delicately under her touch.

She knew her chains could cause quite a bit of pain, especially if somebody tried to fight them, but she wasn't used to pain. She didn't really have a strong endurance, but what she did have was naiveté. She didn't know much about powers, especially not hers.
