Chapter. 44

The group returned to the unlimited field, the land around them was covered in water that reached half way up to their knees along with small hills of sand rising slightly above the water.

"This is new." Corina kicked up some water. "Water is games are always cool to look at."

"We going to get to work or are you going to play in the water?" Asked Levi.

"Can't I do both?"

Levi shook her head. "Alright. Lyle can you Vincent you're way of using the incarnate system? Corina and I will handle Rebecca till you two are done."

"Very well." Lyle and Vincent walked away from the girls, stopping once they were a good distance away. "Alright Vincent, tell me how you use your system."

"To use it I think of everything I hate. The people I hate. The one I hate most of all." Vincent starting to think of Catherine, then to everything she's done to him, then to Rebecca. "That fucking witch will fucking pay."

"Vincent." Vincent clinched his fists. "Vincent!" Lyle spoke in a higher tone, snapping Vincent out of his thoughts. "You need to calm yourself."

"I'm trying, damn it!"

"Try thinking of something positive. Try thinking of Rebecca."

"Aright." Vincent thought about the time he and Rebecca went out to a diner, which let him relax. He then thought about when they shared their first kiss, but then he thought about when Rebecca ran away from him. All because of Catherine. Vincent's body tensed up again.

"Vincent!" Lyle snapped Vincent back. "What do you think about?"

Vincent groaned. "I tried thinking of Reby, but then I start thinking of Catherine and what that fucking thot has done."

"Vincent. Listen to me, what she did was wrong but you must rise above her. You must learn to forgive her."

"Forgive her? Forgive her!? How?! I'll never forgive that fucking thot for want she did!"

"And that's exactly what Catherine wants. By staying angry at Catherine you're letting her effect you, you're letting her control you, giving her power over you. Power she doesn't deserve."

"And how do you know that?"

"Because it was the same thing with my father." Vincent's body relaxed. "I hated my father for hurting my mother and I was in the same place you are. I could never forgive him but mom said to forgive him. Holding on to that anger won't change anything and that living well without him is the best kind of revenge."

"You forgave him?"

"Not at first. It was hard, impossible even but then I found someone to take my mind off my father." Lyle turned to Corina. "Someone who was worthy, more deserving of my attention."

Meanwhile Levi and Corina lead Rebecca to one of the small islands. Levi clapped her hands together. "So, what do you need to know about the incarnate system."

"The incarnate system is you telling brain burst what to do." Explained Corina. "To use this system you first need to think of something and image you're doing it, also you need to power it by your emotions. What we're aiming for is a positive one."

"Okay." Rebecca's mind immediately turned to Vincent. She thought about when they first met, when she rode on Vincent motorcycle, then when he cut his way through a legion to get her back.

"You got something?" Asked Corina.

"Yes."

"Good. Now hold on to it and think about how it makes you feel. It'll charge your uses of the incarnate system."

"How long will it take?"

"Well it took us all about four or five days to get it down somewhat."

"Four days? Here?" Rebecca looked around. "But what about the monsters?"

"If any come here we'll deal with them then get back to work."

"But still... To be in this place for days..."

"Reby!" Rebecca snapped out of her thoughts and spun to Levi. "How bad do you want this power?"

"I want it. I want to fight with all of you."

"Then don't think about how long it'll take. When you want something bad you can't count the cost. Because if you see the cost you might quit, you might give up. That's why you never count the cost. You just do what you have to, to get what you want."

"Levi."

Corina grabbed onto Rebecca's shoulder. "Listen to me Reby, You're avatar is made because you're indecisive, you don't know who you are, but once you know you'll stop acting out of desperation. You stop saying yes to things you shouldn't be saying yes to, you stop following because you don't know what to do. It's because you don't trust yourself that you can't lead yourself. What I'm saying is your belief is off." Corina pointed to Vincent and Lyle, then to Levi. "Everyone here can see how sweet you are. We say things like, 'you can do this' or 'you can do that' because we believe you can. You just have to believe that you can!"

Levi nods. "And if you want something strongly enough then fight for it. Work day and night for it. To give up time, peace, and sleep for it. If your dream are about it, and life seems useless without it. If you gladly sweat for it, fret over it, plan for it, and go after it with all of your strength then you'll get it."

"Thank you Coco, Levi." Rebecca nods and pumps her fists. "I'll do it! I want the incarnate system! I want to fight along side all of you!"

Corina released Reby and Levi patted her shoulder. "Then let's get started. First think of something you want to do with your powers."

Vincent looked away and sighed. Lyle rested his hand on Vincent's arm. "Vincent, I'm asking that do yourself a favor. Make a promise."

"Why?"

"Because if you don't everything will fall apart. Even if you do it's still going to be hard, but the promise will hold you to yourself. So I want you to say 'I promise.' Alright?" Vincent glanced to Rebecca again. "Now I know things happen, that's life and I get that. Still I want you to make that promise, not to me, not Rebecca, not to anyone but yourself."

Vincent felt a weight in his chest. He looked at the hand on his arm then up to Lyle. "Alright. I... I promise. I promise to do better. To be better. I promise to be a better person then I was before."

"Good." Lyle removed his hand. "Now take that negativity and turn it into something positive. Think of Catherine, what would make you happy?"

"Rubbing her nose into her failed plan. Reby and I are back together and stronger for it." Vincent snickered. "I really want to see her face then."

"Then after that?"

"I... I guess I'd move on. With someone more deserving of my attention."

"Very good Vincent. Now we should get back to work."
