and from the holes in the ceiling they can see it's getting dark soon.
"Hey, Sein? where do we find something to eat?" Ori asks Sein which she replies "well... Idk, all I need is some light to keep me going, but maybe there are berry bushes nearby"
Sein makes a bed out of leaves she found around the cave "that should be good, hey Ori?" She calls him, but he was nowhere to be seen "you're kidding me..."
Ori wanders around hoping to find something to eat "hmm..." Ori keeps looking around but still with no luck, but then something catches his eyes, the white blur before he blacked out.
without hesitation, Ori runs at it. When he gets close enough he slows down to see what it was, but accidentally steps on a branch. "who's there?!" Ori kept quite but soon was met with a wooden arrow in his right shoulder "OW OW OW!" Ori jumps out of the bushes jumping around from pain
"... another spirit?" the white blur looks at Ori, who's still jumping around in pain "what the heck was that for?!" Ori then takes a sharp turn to the other spirit with an angry look in his face "s-sorry about that I thought you we're an enemy, heheh..." the Spirit scratches his head.
"anyways, the names Fil!" Ori looks at him "you're another-" Fil cuts off Ori "yep, a spirit!... who's lucky to barely escape the fury of the Kuro" Fil explains and grabs something from his backpack "anyways, I think you're pretty hungry aren't you?" Fil throws some berries at Ori which Ori catches "whoa, thanks!"
Fil keeps staring at Ori, which makes him kinda uncomfortable "uh... is something, wrong?" Ori asks "Ori... I think I've heard it somewhere before" Fil puts his finger on his chin
"anyways! I need to return to Sein-" Fil ears then lit up "Sein!? She's still alive!" Fil shakes Ori's shoulder "ow ow! OW!... geez, I've still got the wound you know and yes she's still alive... wait, she?" Ori looks at Fil "Thank god!... wait, you don't know Sein's gender?" Ori just shook his head "anyways, let's head back to Sein"
"Hey, Sein! I'm back" Ori waves his hand, Sein turns around and without hesitation, she ran to him "aw, I missed you to-" and zooms past Ori and gave Fil a hug "whoa... hey there Sein, good to see you again" Fil pets Seins back and Ori just drop his head
"I thought Kuro had you!" Sein yells at Fil "don't worry I made it out alive" Fil says, Ori then sits down and lets out a sigh and remembers the arrow still in his shoulder and with a dumb look Ori puts a berry in his mouth and yanks the arrow out of his shoulder while doing so he bites the berry very hard. "hnng..." Ori looks at his shoulder and lets out another sigh happy the arrow was removed.
Sein and Fil talk a bit about what happened and Ori decided to sleep early. After a while, Sein and Fil decided it's time to sleep "hm, seems like he's already asleep, hm?" Sein stares at the sleeping Ori
Fil then lifts Ori's right arm "oh... that looks nasty" Fiil exclaims looking at Ori's shoulder where he shot an arrow at "what?" Sein walks over and quickly notices the wound "wha- when did he get that?!"
Fil but his hands behind his back and looks the other way "that... may have... been me" Sein looks at him and then starts healing Ori's wound with some light. Ori then flinches a bit but was fast asleep.
Sein let's out a sigh "how did you wound him?" Fil just stares at Sein and then grabs the bow "oh, wow" Sein grabs the bow looking at it. Its silk and is very strong and stretchy, the wood is very durable as well. "how did you make this?" Sein asks still examining the bow.
"well, I've got the silk from the spider and the wood from well, the trees" Sein hands back the bow and Fil puts it next to his backpack. Then they decide to sleep too.
Ori wakes up very early in the morning, while Sein and Fil are still deeply asleep. He then goes and tries to find some breakfast and went back to the place he found Fil.
Ori looks around and find a few bushes with berries and immediately collects them and starts to eat a few, of course, he needs to save a few for Fil so he did. after gathering the berries he went back to the campsite where he met Fil and Sein awake.
"Hey, good morning!" Ori says walking over to them with the freshly plucked berries giving them to Fil. Fil thanks Ori and put most of them in his backpack "so, where are we heading now?"
"to the spirit tree, but we have to get out of this cave first" Sein says, but Fil knows how to climb so "Sein, Ori? does one of you two have a... rope?" Fil asks and Sein and Ori look at each other and then back at Fil "no we don't" Ori & Sein answers and Fil sighs "ok, ok, it's fine... think Fil, think... can one of two climb?" and Ori and Sein both shake their head
"hm... maybe I can use my spirit flame to boost myself up" Sein says, Fil then lights up "That's a genius idea! let's try it out!" and they head to the entrance
"Ok, Ori stay down here for if Sein falls and I'll go up there for if Sein barely makes it" Fil plans and starts wall jumping up "ready?!" Fil shouts as Sein raises her thumb up and then she charges up a huge blast.
in a flash she let's out the flame and was blasted up, it wasn't enough and without hesitation she turns to the ground and fire's another one. She is very close to reaching to top, but was just a little off so Fil grabs Sein by her hand but leans to far and then they both we're falling.
Ori notices that both his friends are falling and he is just alone and he cannot possibly save both of them... right?
Ori looks at them and then time slows down for him as he starts to move towards the wall feeling energy sourcing through his whole body and then he jumps on the wall and jumps to the other wall at great speed maintaining his velocity and balance, catching Sein first and uses the wall to boost him to the ground now doing the same for Fil.
Everyone was down and Ori then feel the energy leaving and takes a big breath, Sein and Fil looks at themselves and then to Ori questioning what happened. "Ori?... what was that?!" Fil grabs Ori by his shoulders "I-I don't know"
Fil then looks Ori in the eye "I've never seen that in my live! I've only seen Sein using powers, but never have I seen anyone else use powers" Fil was so excited to know what else Ori could do, but of course Ori only found out just as recent as Fil.
"Ori, did anything happen to you when you younger?" Sein asks as Ori shakes his head "Idk... I can't remember, all I remember is waking up on a log around a lot of flowers"
Sein then looks at Ori and grabs him by his shoulders "Ori you died" Ori then looks at Sein and starts laughing like it was a joke, but then stops "hah... you're serious, aren't you?" Sein nods "yes, it seems like something has brought you back to live but I can't think of someone... the spirit tree, the spirit tree brought you back to life and erased your past memories"
"but, why would he erase some of my past memories?" Ori asks, which Sein quickly replies "It may have been really painful" Fil then intervenes the conversation "hey uuh, Ori if you could do that again we might be able to get up" Ori nods saying that he is ready
"Ok..." Ori takes a deep breath and starts running towards the wall takes a step, but fails and falls on his back "ow..." Fil and Sein tries to not laugh "ok, let's try that again"
Ori gasps for air when he failed trying what he did a moment ago over and over again. "Fil *huff*... I don't think I can do it *puff* again..." Fil then jumps off the rock he was sitting on.
"I believe you can, Ori... but what if..." Fil then shows a creepy smile on his face "...I don't like the look on your face, Fil..." Ori spoke but Fil ignored it and starts climbing up "... I don't think I'm gonna like this plan..." Sein then spoke, but Fil keeps climbing "don't worry, all we need is a simple trust fall" as Fil reaches the top of the "Fil..? Fil, I don't think this is a good idea..." Ori shouts
"Ori, you just have to believe... ok, Fil... here we go" Fil shouts and then whispers to himself and slowly falls backwards "Fil? FIL? FIL!?" Ori shouts, but Fil doesn't listen and keeps going and now reaches the point he cannot turn back anymore.
"FIL!" Ori shouts one last time, but no use Fil is already falling and then it happens again. Time slows down for Ori, while Sein keeps an eye on Ori as she spots lightning leaking from his body. Ori then realizes that this was the only chance so he immediately grabs Sein and starts jumping from one side of the wall to the other till he reaches to top and goes back for Fil.
Ori gasps for air again "see, I knew you could do it!" Fil goes up to Ori to give him a hug, but Ori pulls up his hand infront of him "never *huff*... ever do that again" Ori spoke and then lowers his hand and Fil then gave him a hug
"Ori, I have a feeling... you have the power to enhance you're body with electricity" Sein speaks up. Ori looks at her confused "I have seen when you activate your, well, ability you we're leaking lightning" Ori then looks at Sein with hopes in his eyes "DO I HAVE SUPER SPEED?!" but Sein shook her head "sort of but no Ori, I mean you have the power to manipulate electricity and by having a electric aura it will grant you enhanced physical capabilities such as speed, strength, and durability. but in you're case it's probably only speed" Ori then drop his head as Fil pets Ori's head "anyways, let's continue"
"hmm... seems like we need key stones to get trough here" Sein says looking at the spirit gate, Fil nods. "let's go search for them" and the trio then starts searching and end up infront of a high platform. "so... how are we suppose to get up there? because I cannot wall jump from anywhere?" Fil says, Sein wanted to say something but was interrupted by Ori "we can use this boulder!" Ori spoke while pulling the boulder towards them. Fil and Sein stare at Ori with their mouths wide open "Ori..? y-you know th-that that thing is around t-ten times your size?" Fil eventually spoke "oh... wait, does that mean my electric aura also gives me strength?!" Ori yells.
Sein looks at Ori, but there was no trace of any lightning or electricity... "O-Ori... I don't think it's because of you're aura" Ori then becomes a bit confused "then, because of what then?" Fil and Sein face-palm "Ori, it's you're own strength" Ori then did "oooooh... well, are we going to get that key stone or what?" Ori says as they then climb up the small boulder onto the planform above.
"alright, we've gotten the keys now let's continue..." They then stood still and look at what they have to do now "Ori... I think we might need that speed and agility of yours again" Sein speaks up and Ori quickly replies "yeah, sure..."
Ori takes a deep breath "ok, Fil... are you sure you can do this without my help?" Ori asks, Fil nods "alright then" Ori takes one last big breath and let's the electricity empower him and then carries Sein to the end and then they wait for Fil and in about a few minutes Fil arrived save and sound.
