If I thought Aiden's centaur was big, then I don't know what to say about my creature. Or was it creatures? I felt not only powerful but magnifent. I felt like I could touch heaven's.
The old man walked towards me and said, "a Griffin! The gods have really favoured us this time!"
The Griffin he was talking about was a combination of two animals. (Wait! Even Adrian is a combination of two. Wow!) I was a bird and a cat. Not just any other bird, an eagle! The king of all birds. Then the lower part was that of a lion from waist down to the hind legs. The upper part was an eagle and the fore limbs were eagle's with very strong talons as craws. I felt powerful. And I was.
The old man looked at me and said, you can control any animal that lives. Whether on air or on land or water. You can control nature itself. Trees will obey your commands and even the waters.
He then touched my forehead and a light left his finger and entered me though the forehead. I felt new information pour into my mind.
"Read that and cultivate hard. Make sure you start doing dual cultivation with your fated one soonest. The seasons are changing," the oracle said and then disappeared right before my eyes.
But that was the least of my concerns at that moment. What did he mean by 'my fated one'? Did that mean I have to leave Adrian? Hell no! I can't and I won't! I just found the person my heart loves after twenty-two years of existence and then I have to leave him again? Never! I'm not doing that. The world be damned! (Sorry. Maybe we can find a way around that).
As I was thinking, I started going through the information the Oracle had given me. It contained information on how to cultivate, how to command animals, how to talk to nature, how to summon water and all that.
It was like a huge library. I decided to give it a go and I screeched Have to Leave Him? If I thought Aiden's centaur was big, then I don't know what to say about my creature. Or was it creatures? I felt not only powerful but magnifent. I felt like I could touch heaven's.
I decided to give it a go and I screeched like an eagle then spread my wings. They were huge! Ha ha ha! This was the life. I can't wait to show Adrian my form. The thought of leaving him made me sad and I didn't want to think about it.
Then I lifted them and soared to the sky. Wow! Now that was a sight to behold. I could fly!
Wohoooooooo! I flew around for a while then decided to go home because I knew my dad and Adrian must have been eagerly waiting for me. I flew to our flat and landed on the roof top. Thank the gods it was during
the night and I had nothing to worry about. After I landed and changed, I heard voices in my head. I sat down because I sensed an oncoming headache.
"We can sense him," that was a soft voice then a deep one said, " yes, he's nearby."
"Who are you?" I asked because I was sure the voices were in me.
"Oh, sorry for not introducing ourselves. My name is Kay your eagle."
"And I am Kyl your lion. We were just excited because we sensed our fated one in this building," Kyl said and I cursed myself for not going through all the information I was given first.
"Okay. I will let you two know that I have someone I love. How we go about that I don't know. But for now let's rest then we will weigh the options tomorrow," I said with a sigh then opened the door that led to the roof and went down stairs to my flat.
'I can't lose Adrian.' Was the one thought stuck in my mind.
