The little rabbits red eyes seemed to be set ablaze by the first question and only seemed to grow more determined as each question was asked because he… A small spirit beast under the protection of others could actually be able to do such things.
He could of been suspicious towards those words but his friend who he had known for years had spoke full of absolute confidence as she spoke every word of it!
He began to nod his head repeatedly as he looked at little white determined to face whatever she would ask of him.
Little white could only smile as she gazed upon his tiny figure. "Very well, from now on I will be teaching you how to get stronger and you will join me in training. No matter how hard it will be you must not give up."
She began with passing on the basics of the Red Eyed Ice Art to help him take his first step forward.
She also pointed out the locations on his body to help him accurately locate his first meridian since he had enough energy in his beast core to break through but the rabbit looked as if he was about to immediately break through so she warned him. "Don't be in such a hurry to break through, although you can do it right away does not mean it is as you should do. Spend your time refining your energy in your core until it is as pure as it can possibly be, not only will it make your spirit energy more stable and powerful but it also helps you build a firm foundation for later training."
The little rabbits eyes became excited and immediately began refining his energy like a madman possessed, he would never move from his position or come out of this state until it was time to head back home where he would train even more.
Little white looked surprised at him.
'This little fellow sure seems determined!' She thought as she closed her eyes and began to focus on her own training.
The day passed as both of them went home to continue their training she had made a little progress on her Holy Scripture during the daytime so her little light spirit energy was slowly growing and being refined.
The rabbit returned to his small little home under the ground and immediately began his training again.
After first attempting this cultivation manual he began to get more and more skilled using it, the more he realised how amazing it was!
What little white did not know was that although she was his friend, she had just earned a companion who would die for her to achieve her goals this day.
The little rabbit was born around the same time as little white but his experiences were very hard on him as a young beast.
He lost his parents at a very young age and was left with barely anything but a single spirit grass which must of been gathered in secret for him by his parents upon his birth.
As a small and powerless little beast with no family his future was determined within the mountain at an early age.
The other beasts looked down upon him with eyes of pity or saw him as useless and he despaired because of it.
Because of those experiences he quickly became agitated and attacked other beasts who looked at him in such ways, every time he was beaten he grew more determined to grow stronger.
After meeting little white, he found that she never looked at him like the others did.
Although she had her own unique sides to her she would never look down upon him, she was weak like he was and she had a timid nature but other times she was quite the trouble maker.
He quickly grew fond of her and they spent a lot of time together.
Time passed and he managed to absorb the spirit grass completely and broke through to the first stage of spirit gathering becoming a spirit beast.
His spirit beast wisdom was unlocked upon doing so and he began to learn more about his surroundings.
He found out about little whites family, her siblings talent and more about little whites situation.
Although her situation could not compare to his, he still recognised her situation as being somewhat just as bad.
He had no parents and wished to be strong and respected but was met with cold gazes but little white did have family but her poor talent was definitely compared to her siblings on a regular occasion.
She had parents who wished for her to be like her siblings, her siblings who attracted attention and were almost out of reach with no way to catch up.
Then there was everyone else…
Others looked upon little white with similar eyes as they did to him!
They pitied that she did not have her siblings talent, they looked down upon her weak strength and saw most of her actions as a bother.
Although he had broke through and did not have too much strength, he had ice attributed spirit energy which was rare so he assumed he might have a little talent after all despite his small body.
He decided to focus more on his training and fought more and more against stronger opponents all on his own.
Perhaps the only time he came out of his solitude mindset was when he was with little white and he felt at ease.
Somewhere deep inside he wished he could protect her but despite those gazes little white seemed unaffected and she never fought or was injured.
Years passed and he grew closer and closer to little white, his mind had completely matured and he became more focussed on his training becoming close to the second stage of spirit gathering after finding another spirit grass within the mountain range.
The family left the mountain, he spent his time worrying about his friend and he felt a little lonely.
However when she returned not only did he feel extreme happiness, he noticed there was a change in his friend.
Although she may have changed, she was the same beast he had known for a long time so when she spoke those words he felt like lightening had struck his body.
He had long decided he would protect her when she was weak, and now she probably wished to leave this mountain and adventure into the outside world facing many dangers so it gave him a desire to follow.
His sole wish in his life to stay and protect his friend had been transformed into joining alongside his best friend wherever she may go fighting shoulder to shoulder for whatever dream she may be chasing.
His little body circulated his energy and as if he had found a break through in his mentality his body began to go cold.
His body which emitted a cold aura began to grow even colder as he refined his energy throughout the night.
