Ayooni and Yemi stood face to face in an empty tent that was set up for their practice, but Ayooni was finding it hard to harness through. Anike stood behind her and whispered, you can do it. Girl, clear your mind and focus. I trust you, I am here for you. Still, she couldn't do it.
When she tried several times but nothing happened, Yemi moved closer to her and whispered your eyes are beautiful. That got her attention, the first time I saw you on that lawn, I thought wow I got myself a goddess to look at and the second time I saw you I thought wow, she still as beautiful as she was on that day, then I saw you again all sad at the foot of that mountain and I felt lost at words, I want to know you but you know it wasn't time.
Was that why you got yourself in Naomi's bed instead, she asked smugly, I can sense your smugness from here, she whispered to him making him smile, well you got with Jordan, or what was his name again John, or Jack, anyway the jerk who left you for Angela, he smirks at her, your taste in men is very poor, he smirk and for five years you've had loafers surrounding you? Ayooni said. Yeah right! Yemi said lightly, your sardonic and skittishness was the reason why he jumped into another person's bed.
She lit anger and despair, the pain of heartbreak bubble inside her and he was riding on it. The gut she thought, throwing power at him. Power so bright the tent blew and the mountain shook. Anike, Asani, Kunle and Yomi felt a pulsating rush of blood, the flow of them.
Fire lit as Anike's face blurred, Asani could almost taste the soil, she could hear the earth speak to her, Yomi felt as calm as water and Kunle could feel he was at home with the air.
Air, Water, Earth, Fire, Four into one and one into two, Yemi stood hand in hand with Ayooni facing his friends or rather his brothers and sisters. For we are Three and The Three, together we pave and together we became. I am the answer to seek and the one who holds the heart of the daughter, you are the blood of our blood and in you, we find the path and with The three who merge with three today the veil shall lift and the road shall open and the children shall see.
Power busts out of all directions and the mountain all but sings to their welcome, Ayooni glows in the light of the day and if the dark as all that merges comes to be.
