Disclaimer: I do not own Shaman King.
THIS CHAPTER WILL EXPLAIN ALL ABOUT THE CELESTIAL FURIYOKU HAO WAS ON ABOUT IN THE LAST CHAPPIE.
A/N: Although I am trying to keep everything that happens in tune with the TV series it won't all be because I haven't actually seen the very end of the series and I don't know what happens in Hao and Yoh's fight etc plus some of the timing etc will be changed like when people arrive at Dobi village etc...Sorry.
Tohru gazed up into the crystal blue sky, the sun shone on her face and her pale skin seemed to reflect the rays like a mirror. She shielded her eyes from the blinding light with one hand.
"If we follow this road north it will take longer than just heading west into the desert Ellena"
"I know but is it at all safe to venture off the road?"
"I appreciate your concern but if safety was the key factor then I would not be in the position of being tracked down by a lunatic Shaman on a blood hunt...
I never did ask you, but do you know why Toma is after me...why did he kill my family?"
Tohru's question was met with silence as she trudges slowly down the dusty track.
"I didn't mean to pry...I know that this affected you too...I know there are many different secrets of my family that I don't yet know and If you don't want to te..."
Tohru stopped abruptly as Ellena's soft voice drifted through the air.
"It's your furiyoku. There are two different types, not many know this. The first type, Ethereal furiyoku is the most common, almost every shaman has it, however there are a few who possess another, much rarer furiyoku known as Celestine. The main differences are in spirit control although there are others."
"What differences exactly?"
"I'm not sure I should tell you all that now you are not ready to hear it, however I will tell you this Celestine allows for a longer, stronger spirit control for one thing. Toma killed your family or their Celestine furiyoku. He possesses the blade of life. It has the ability to drain the furiyoku of a person killed with it. It then instils the killer with the power of that furiyoku. It isn't the first time that members of your family have been killed like this."
Tohru stopped and sank to her knees. Her long white hair resting in the dust, a tear trickled down her cheek.
"All this is because of some furiyoku."
The tear followed the contour of her cheek and slowly evaporated under the sun.
"There was blood everywhere; I can still see it, on my hands... I can still smell the stench, the stench of death, I should have stopped him, saved them, prevented it but I didn't...I didn't."
She crumpled down in a heap. The tears now streaming from her eyes. Strands of her hair clung to the damp of her face.
"Tohru you could not have prevented this. There is much to the Celestine that you cannot yet understand, but you will, in time."
" I just can't help feeling that I could have done more"
Tohru lifted herself from the ground and pushed her back out of her face and gave a smile.
"Well we had better be heading off then"
"Are ou OK?" Ellena floated in front of Tohru and hold her hand up to Tohru's face.
"Yes...Now I've decide I will head across the desert, at least then it will be harder for Toma to follow."
Tohru gave Ellena another reassuring smile then headed out into the desert"
Ellena watched her walk off and murmured "I am not sure you will ever understand the true power you hold within you"
Seripa: if you want to know what Tohru looks like she looks like Kisara from yu gi oh. She was priest Seto's love and sacrificed herself to save him. She's alos known as the spirit of the blue eyes white dragon. Google it.
