《Alternate Worlds》Chapter 7: The Door or Not the Door
Advertisement
The girls jump to catch FlameSinger and Mei Ling. By the time they get them back to themselves, FlameSinger is still in shock and keeps saying '2000 years' over and over till Hel tries to slap her. That brought Mei Ling back and her sword at Hel's throat, "No striking my lady or else."
Hel sits back, "She is in shock I was trying to snap her out of it."
Mei Ling, "Slapping her won't work. Don't ask I don't understand how I know, I just know it makes her worse. You don't want to make her worse."
Da'Rune nods, "Some people are like that, hitting them you either get more crying or they lash out. If she lashes out we will be having your funeral."
Hel believes that, "So what do we do then ?"
Mel is just holding FlameSinger and rocking her, "shh shh it will be alright. your fine just fine." None of the girls has ever seen this side of Mel before, its kind of sureal.
FlameSinger eventually gets up and goes out to the goddesses and screams "2000 YEARS!"
Mei Ling following explains to the Goddesses, "The Hermit came, talked some dropped that FlameSinger may live 2000 or so years, she is in a bit of shock about it."
The Goddess all nod, Hanali, "He ran away didn't he ?"
Mei Ling nods, "Yes though after he gave her a working version of the item she was supposed to get from before. This one came with extra features to. Personal Island."
The goddesses nod as that is a nice bonus. The exta-dimensional houses are nice, but getting one with an livable outside is a real perk.
FS is still yelling about the age thing. Only thing anyone can get out of her right now.
Grey elf ask, "What is she caring on like that for ?"
Moonbow to him, "She is a half elf, was expecting maybe a couple hundred year life span, but her otherside is not a mortal race, so her life span is closer to ours. Its a bit of a shock if your not expecting it."
The elves (all 300 or so in range) give an 'AH' responce and watch the poor shocked woman walk around screaming at the walls about it. Hanali "She will calm down in a minute or so, have a nice cry then be ok."

Mei Ling, "I know how she feels though, it is a great shock. My life is bound to hers, so I will live as long as she does."
The Goddess all nod.
A minor elven spirit appears and hands a pack to Moonbow with a bow, then leaves.
The goddess comes to Mei Ling, "We know you have nothing but the clothes on you person. So to help you we give you this pack. It has good basic equipment for adventuring types. There is a sheet in it with your statics on it. FlameSinger requested it and will want to read it when she calms down. There is also a couple of local style outfits in there with under garments and a pouch of local coin, not sure how much is in it."
Soft voice "100 gold, 50 silver" Mei Ling smiles at the voice, rubs the base of the Katana's sheeth. The goddess squints at the sword then smiles, "Oh they gave you her. Very nice. She will do well by you and your mistress."
Hanali tries to calm FlameSinger down, no one can hear what is being said but Hanali burst out laughing as FlameSinger pouts.
She returns to her sisters, "She is upset because 2000 years is not long enough for her." the others smirk at the childish thought. "She says to do all the things she wants to do, it really is not long enough." Mei Ling looks at her Mistress and shakes her head. This is what happens when Dreamers get the chance to live their dreams, they tend to go over board with them. She will eventually outgrow it, hopefully.
Couple hours later The elven Goddess leave (having seen all the elves in the city) The High Priest came over and appologized for their misconception of FlameSingers purpose and nature. They were wrong to treat her that way. FlameSinger nods, Forgives them and walks away.
Hel to Mel, "she didn't forgive them." Mel to Hel, "Nope, our little girl holds grudges I think. Those three did not just burn the bridge between her and them they poured oil on it first." Hel nods in agreement
FlameSinger is looking over the incomplete sheet, "they did not get your skill list I see."

Mei Ling shrugs, "Maybe translating it took to long."
FlameSinger nods, "My sheet was like that, updated a couple of times before it was done. Not sure yours will, slightly different set up. Hm, your dragon is listed as a magical tatoo and not a true spirit."
The dragon hisses at that, FS smiles and tries to skritch it but it moves out of range, "Why won't it let me touch it ?"
Mei Ling, "Its made of fire, it does not want to burn you."
FlameSinger holds up her hand, encases it in fire, "Fire does not harm me, neither does cold. Hell I can swim in Plasma fire if I wanted to, would come to no harm."
The dragon gets a little close, licks a finger, then nudges her hand, then its cat type rubbing all over FS arm. Mei Ling just smiles, "I am the only other person that can touch her so you just made her very happy."
FlameSinger grins, "My given name means Born in Fire, there is a reason for that." she strokes the dragon, enjoying the feel of the warm scales and soft fur like flames. Then she looks at the Dragons skill list, "Oh hey, we got more in common miss dragon. Telekinesis and flight, well Pyrokenisis to of course, Hmm your flight speed is about half my base, but for a being your size is a pretty good speed. If you like maybe I can teach you my speed trick, I managed to get to 2.5 the speed of sound with it." The Dragon sits up, curious, "Use the TK in a bubble around yourself given the nature of that ability with practice you can lower your inertial field allowing for much higher speeds."
Loops and makes figure 8s, Mei Ling translates, "Oh she likes that, she will have to practice that now."
Finishes reading and looks at the Katana, "Sakura, Cherry blossum if I recall correctly."
Sakura purrs, "Yes I like the name. They are pretty. Most give me more either masquiline names or ones for war or such. I like pretty better, I like your name to Great Mistress, FlameSinger, sounds like you sing to fire."
"I sing and it can fan the flames of the heart, depending on the song. I was named by an Artifact actually. But I have both singing and the ability to play some musical instruments, also am Pyro and cryo and tele kinetic. In time maybe I will figure out Electrokenisis to. I work on increasing my understanding of things, including the powers of the mind. That will take a long time to unlock it all."
With that suddenly Mei Ling understands, 2000 years may not be enough time to learn all the secrets of the mind. Not what she was expecting for her pretty and dangerously smart mistress.
Da'Rune comes over to FlameSinger, Dragging Brani by the arm, "Sorry to butt in but Brani tried to walk off with your item. I think she was hoping to open it and then help herself to anything inside before you got the look the place over."
Brani whines, "Well with the group breaking up I need something to fall back on."
FlameSinger, "You just like being punished don't you. I got a List right here of everything in that house." Waves Mei Lings character sheet at her, "So I would have Known what you did, then you know what become of you ?"
Brani, "Time in a dungeon ?"
Hel, "She would burn your arms off more likely, make it so you could never steal again. I would hold you still for her. You DO NOT Steal from your companions, how many times do we have to tell you that."
FlameSinger, dead voice, "Actually the house comes with a dungeon. Complete with torture chamber, Mei Ling is a skilled Interigator are you getting the picture Brani." Mei Ling smiles, Mistress remembered, she mentioned it when she first arrived.
Loss of arms is bad, torture is worse, maybe. Both would be a lot worse. Brani is looking panicky. Da'Rune hands FlameSinger the door, who slips it in to her backpack for now.
Hel sighs, "We don't know if the group is breaking up, we just try to make contingency plans is all."
FS, "I don't want the party to break up, you all are the only people I know and I have grown rather attached to most of you." side look at Brani who makes the worst first impressions of any there.

Note: Tyrone's Background is based in an unfair justice system so there may be instances of racism apparent in chapters. Nothing major but you are warned.
