Shaman Reminiscent

Opacho sat on a small thin mountain watching the Destiny Star whiz past her in the sky. Sighing she looked towards the city in the distance. She had been alone for a few months now. The shaman tournament had been cancelled while the King of Spirits regained its dignity.

She was miserable. Though she had every right to be mad…she couldn't. They'd been travelling together for so long. Throughout the last month she'd started to believe it was her fault. Recently she had decided to stop beating herself over the past. She couldn't forget though…the look in his eyes as he stared her down. No emotion except the burning frenzy he was in. He couldn't recognise friend from foe. It hurt her.

"M…master." She trembled and bit her lip.

"Have you got a new master?" An amused voice asked behind her. She turned hardly daring to believe it. There was a smile on the face that had gone down to her level. The owner of the voice was about to continue if it weren't for the small arms suddenly enveloping his neck. He smiled. "Forgive me my friend."

Opacho shook her head. "No forgiveness is needed Master Zeke." She smiled. She felt a finger being pressed to her lips. When the finger was removed she looked at Zeke confused. "What's wrong?" She asked.

Zeke smiled and stood. "I am not your master Opacho. I am…that is…if you will allow it after the way I have treated you in the past…your friend. I never want to hear 'Master Zeke' come out of your mouth again?" He said with mock sternness. Softening his face he ruffled the young one's hair slightly, earning himself a disgruntled glare. "I am your equal."

Opacho raised her eyes slightly. "What have you been drinking?" She asked seriously.

Zeke laughed. "Oh dear Opacho! You have not changed. And I am glad." He gazed at her. "You are so kind…to forgive me so quickly."

Opacho put her hands on her hips. "I wouldn't call three months 'quickly'! I thought you were dead." She said looking outwards again, sitting on the ledge. Zeke sat down on the other side and rested his arms on his lap. He glanced at the sparkling trail the Destiny Star had left behind whilst rushing through the sky. Opacho looked at him. "What happened Ma…Zeke?" She asked.

Zeke looked down at her. "When we were fighting?" He asked questionably. Opacho nodded and faced him. Zeke sighed and looked up at the stars. "I let my power get the best of me." He noted Opacho looking at him in shock and smiled. He stood. "But that story is for another time, come. We have to gather up the rest of our flock."

Opacho smiled and used spirit control to turn her appearance to that of a woolly sheep. She tenderly made her way to the bottom of the mountain. Zeke followed her off the top and slid gently down to the valley below. His poncho flew back showing his well defined muscles and his clenched fists. He had a wide scar that ran from the nape of his neck down to his lower regions in a brutal zigzag motion.

Opacho waited at the bottom surrounded by the woodland animals. Zeke simply nodded to her. It was strange, she though later, that animal's love what he is doing for them yet other shaman condemn him. It was a pity no one understood the softer side.
