Tales of a Dreamer: The Beads of Light

"Well," Sekai said with a sigh of content. "That was exciting." She took Hikari by the hand and gave her cheek a good smack, waking her sister up. "No more sleeping, you hear?" Sekai ordered, wagging a finger. She turned towards the others. "I suppose Mia is further ahead?" She asked. Hikari nodded once.

Up by Mia, the spider she had defeated had been slashed to pieces. Before she was able to walk back to the group, however, she saw a woman out of the corner of her eye. By pure reflex, she took up her sword and got into a defensive position. But the woman she saw was unlike any other. This woman had extremely long, blue hair and wore a sort of hat. The hat was also a dark blue and had a ribbon tied around it. In fact, the woman wore an all-blue dress with a few white markings and a large red ribbon. The woman's eyes were downcast, as if she was deep in thought.

The woman looked up solemnly at Mia. She then tilted her head to the side, as if confused. "Where are you looking?" She questioned. Such a statement was surprising, but not because it was rhetorical, but because it came from behind Mia. Behind the Dimensionalist was the same woman, wearing the same clothing, and the same expression.

Mia sheathed her blade, completely satisfied with her work, though her reflexes sharpened upon seeing the woman, only to have the same one appear right behind her. She leapt back to get distance, but didn't draw her weapon. "I was looking at my work," Mia said bluntly and gestured over at the spider that she had torn to shreds. "It's not wise to startle people that are used to fighting, you know," she added with a displeased look. The woman wasn't too threatening; she really should be a bit more careful.

Melody levitated into the air and floated as quickly as she could over to Mia to make sure she was all right. Landing right beside the young girl, she nodded her head to the woman....well, the one that had appeared behind Mia anyway. She had arrived to hear the last pieces of Mia's comment and was shocked.

"Mia said something nice?" she whispered in awe, rendered speechless. Well, she supposed it was a good thing. This lady looked nice and it wasn't very kind to offend strangers.

"Fighting?" The woman asked as if she had never before heard of it, "Fighting...I see...so there was a battle." The woman's eyes wandered over to the fallen spider inside the building. She stared at the beast for quite some time, as if contemplating on what to think about it. The woman looked back at Mia, her face showing that of solemnity, as if she were weeping for the fallen creature. "Fighting..." The woman repeated, but said nothing more.

Hikari and Sekai soon caught up to Mia and Melody, and both stopped before reaching the strange, beautiful lady who stood there, talking to Mia. Sekai looked puzzled, but Hikari seemed to be quite interested. Neither said anything, and simply watched the exchange.

The woman looked over at Melody, finally, and blinked only once. "You are searching." It wasn't a question. "Looking for something. But what you search for is not here, and yet you search here. Why is that?"

Melody became even more speechless, and she waved her hands uneasily, as if swatting the question away. "I'm not searching for anything in particular, but me and my friends here are exploring this place. We're in search of the Temple of Light, at least, that's our primary destination of course," she explained, hopefully distracting the woman with their true purpose deterring her from questioning Melody's true intent.

Mia nodded. "Indeed, it is as she says. Do you know of its location?" This woman seemed really out of it, but she was down here after all, so it was possible she knew of the location of the temple. If not, they'd just continue to explore until they found it.

"The Temple...of Light?" The woman asked, seeming to be completely ignorant of the name. She tilted her head even more. This woman was becoming more and more odd to the group. Was she even human? But...she had to be. She wasn't a beast or a demon, that was for sure, Hikari would have sensed evil in her soul if that were true. "Oh...you must mean Heaven's Tower..." Where the woman got that idea from would remain a mystery.

"But Heaven's Tower cannot be climbed by ordinary humans..." the woman said slowly. She seemed to be a very delicate spirit, but also very knowledgeable. This woman knew something that they didn't, that was for sure. "Great beasts lie in wait for prey to feast on," the woman continued, "Threats that could be avoided, but must be passed." The woman had to enjoy talking in circles. She had to. But no sign of any sort of positive emotion was visible on her. Not even her eyes showed a hint of positive emotion.

The woman looked back at Melody curiously, "You...your soul is...troubled," the woman said slowly. "Tell me why you are saddened, won't you?"

"T-troubled soul? I think that's a b-bit much there," Melody responded and nervously stroked her own hair to make sure it wasn't out of place, though of course it wasn't. She just needed something for her hands to do. The psychic smiled. "See? I'm smiling. Fine, just fine. Yes," she continued to rant, trying to be convincing.

"You're making a fool out of yourself, woman, so stow it," Mia shot at the older woman causing Melody to cease her chatter. Mia's eyes were trained on this strange woman. What the hell was she even doing down here anyway? "I appreciate your concern for my friend, kind spirit, but as you can see, she's foolishly happy." She crossed her arms, the gears in her mind churning away.

"Friend?" Again the woman's head tilted to the side as if she didn't understand the term. "Oh...so you two are acquaintances..." she said, looking away now. She stayed in that position for quite awhile, not even moving an inch. Her head then shot back so suddenly, it seemed as though her neck might have snapped, but it didn't. "I ask you," she said, "tell me your names."

"Oh, why yes. I'm Melody Deremer. Pleased to meet you," she said and smiled kindly, though she was now starting to feel quite uncomfortable around this odd woman. Could she honestly know of Melody's true endeavors? I-it doesn't matter...I'm finding them...I know I'll find them, she thought defiantly, though she had to work to make it not show in her face.

"Mia Thorne. What about yourself? Who are you?" That was the main question that needed to be posed. No ordinary person would just be wandering around down here. Besides, there was something off about this lady. Hopefully, a true introduction would reveal the answers the young girl desired.

"I'm Hikari Kizuna, and this is my sister Sekai," Hikari said, once the woman had looked to them for their names. Frankly, Hikari was a little worried about this woman. Could she be lost down here? Then how did she get here in the first place? Was that enough proof to determine whether or not the woman was actually human herself?

"Who...am I?" The woman once again seemed to have no idea what the others were asking. Only this time, her head remained tilted. It was as if she were toying with them...but that couldn't be right.

Sekai interjected this time, "What are you called? What's your title?" She asked, trying to get a name from the strange woman.

This time the woman seemed to understand. Her head tilted back up, and her hands fell limp on her sides as her visage became very serious. "I am the Goddess of Mirrors and the Mirror Realm," She declared, "Sorazorashii Riariti." Now her face became less serious, "Or...that's how they told me to introduce myself to humans..." This woman was indeed, full of surprises.

"Well that explains a lot," Mia stated, glad to understand things better now, but just curious as to what this goddess was up to. Then, looking at her personality, maybe she didn't even know. Mia was through pestering. The girl felt a headache coming on. No more words flowed from her mouth. She just stared at the beautiful goddess with indifferent eyes and waited.

"Oh my, another goddess," Melody exclaimed in awe and bowed before the deity. "It is an honor to be in your presence," she added. First Megaera and now this goddess. To think that they'd run into two deities. It was always rather exciting, but this one didn't to seem to have much of a head on her shoulders. Was that cause to worry? The goddess had taken care of herself this far, right?

The goddess simply ignored their shocked looks and moved to the side, allowing entry into what appeared to be another cavern. She looked down the hold in the wall for a second. "This passage will take you to Heaven's Tower. Or the Temple of Light as you called it," the goddess said. She turned towards the group, a crack beginning to appear on her flawless cheek. It began to spread, slowly, all over her body. "I look forward to meeting you again," she said, then shattered into a thousand pieces, leaving behind fragments of a mirror.

Hikari bent down and gently poked one of the mirrors. It immediately turned to dust at her touch. Hikari looked up, "That was a rather odd goddess, don't you think?" she spoke to no one in particular, everyone seemed to be thinking the same thing. Hikari stood back up and brushed the dust off of her dress. "I've never heard of the name Heaven's Tower," she said, "What do you suppose it means?"

"Maybe it was just the goddess rambling on. It might just be some ancient way of calling the place the Temple of Light." Sekai waved a hand, dismissing the topic. "Let's go on ahead."

~

Down the dark cavern the party went, concerned about the growing number and sizes of the spiders that scurried away from the light from Hikari's staff. Eventually they reached an large, widened cave area with multiple pillars of stone placed randomly around the room. There was no other light in the area other than the light from Hikari's staff. From the sight range that the group had from the light, they could see multiple webs surrounding and placed throughout the dark cavern.

"I feel the presence of evil here," Hikari warned, "And it's close. Very close."

"They can't be too dangerous," Sekai said confidently, punching the air with her fist at an invisible enemy, "We've come this far, nothing can stop us now."

"Still, be careful." Hikari poked her staff in front of her, seeing if she could see anything. But so far, nothing could be seen at all.

Sasori moves to cell ???

The party could hear the sounds of a giant creature walking around, although the cave echoed so much, no one could tell where the sound was coming from. Then suddenly, a vomit-colored gas came down upon them, causing them to cough and splutter with surprise. They began to feel dizzy, and lost their concentration on the moves they used to boost their power. Every bit of power they had just used was lost now, wasted away by the whatever that was lurking in the shadows.

Hikari coughed, swiping away at the poison gas. Luckily for her, it didn't seem to affect her much, besides the coughing. Sekai and some of the others weren't so lucky. It was as if the beast within had cast a Dispel magic on them. In fact, that's probably what it was. Hikari sighed, then took a few steps forward. They wouldn't get anywhere just by sitting tight and waiting for the beast to show itself.

Hikari moves to G-6.

"Stay behind me, Hikari," Sekai said, taking her place in front of the girl. "Don't leave your spot until we know where the danger is." Sekai decided not to power up this time. She didn't want to have to go through that horrible gas again. It felt like she was eating vomit whenever she inhaled the gas. In fact, the smell might be a clue as to where the gas came from. But the beast was still nowhere to be found.

Sasori followed Rai to above where she stood, and immediately flipped, it's huge body crashing down on top of Rai. Sasori stood back up and took a few huge steps back, showing what it left behind. Rai was left lying down in a small crater, the ice on her chest slowly regrowing. It had been the ice that had protected Rai from sustaining the full amount of damage, but it could not stop Rai from becoming immobilized for a bit. Sasori screeched at the enemies it faced, ready to take them head-on, and possibly eat the tasty ones.

"Here!" Hikari offered, turning towards Rai. She wanted Rai to feel a bit better about moving about so she could get away from the giant spider if she needed to. Hikari waved her staff through the air, trailing a light blue mist through the air and sent it towards Rai. The mist passed through Rai's head, alleviating her suffering and nulling out the pain from her legs. "There, now you should be able to move again without too much trouble," Hikari said, nodding once.

"We found this giant bug, but I can't help but wonder if there are others around," Sekai mused aloud, before sneaking her way over to Rai and the giant spider. She got up next to the spider and snatched up it's head with her hand. "Hello there," Sekai said, a pleasant tone of hostility dripping through her teeth. Her legs suddenly burst into flames as she shot both of them at the giant spider, slamming it with her flaming legs. "Sorry about that, you looked a bit cold!"
