Chapter 2: Her destiny
Berry reached her home and entered her TV lounge.
"MOM I AM HOME!!!" Berry shouted loudly but no answer came back.
Berry put down her school bag, quietly and went to the kitchen where a white paper was stuck on the fridge. Berry sighed in relief as she took the note and started to read.
Dear Berry
I have left this place and you for a long period of time.
I have given my duty and I hope you will too
I will miss you.
I hope you will listen to your real grandfather.
He has a lot to tell you, listen to him.
It was my duty to take care of you and to protect you from the evil.
Some came and I did protect you.
I have given my duty and now It's your turn.
Your grandfather will tell you all about it.
Love from
Your foster mother
Berry blinked; confused as she read the letter again and again.
Looks like she was doing some kind of duty, god I have no idea what she though if me in real neither if she wanted me or not if it wasn't the duty.
Berry threw the piece of paper in the dust bin and sighed.
"Grandfather? I didn't even know my parents, how can I know my grandparents? I have none," she said to herself, loudly.
"You are wrong, little one. You have one," a voice from behind her said.
Berry gulped and flung her head back only to see an old man with a dozen wrinkles on his face. He was wearing a mystical red color robe.
"And you must be my grandfather, the one I never knew in my life," Berry said, bravely.
The old man smiled, kindly.
"Yes. But now you do," he said
"Where were you when my parents died?" asked Berry
"I was giving my duty," the old man said
"Which is..? Berry asked, curiously
"I will tell you," her grandfather said.
There was a minute silence.
"How am I sure that you are not… a member of his group?" Berry asked, quietly.
"I am not a part of his group, I am here to train you, train you to save the world, to help you, to put you on the right path, to… teach you," Grandfather said
Berry blinked.
"WILL ANYBODY TELL ME WHAT'S GOING ON??!!" Berry shouted on top of her lungs.
Her grandfather smiled.
"Go, pack, we are going out to camp. There I will tell you," Grandfather said, sitting on one of the stools.
5 hours later
Berry stared at the burning fire in front of her, enjoying the warmth spread through her body as she looked eagerly at her grandfather to begin to explain.
They were in the middle of a huge forest and were camping near the bank of a river.
"Well, it looks like you are dying to hear this, well let me tell you then. I am here to teach you to be strong," Grandfather said, staring at the fire.
"Yes, you already said that," Berry said, annoyed.
"I am here to train you because you are a descendant of the king of spirits,"
"WHAT??!!! The king of spirit is a human???" asked Berry, astounded.
"He was a shaman, a married man; he was devastated when he saw people especially shamans being evil and mean to everyone, he wanted to do something. He left his family and some how had an enormous amount of power. Then he was made himself the king of spirits. He's the most powerful and greatest and he watches all over us. Now he send his words that one his descendant whose is the youngest should take his place," Grandfather said.
Berry waited for more.
"You are the youngest of his blood and he told me to protect you and to train you to take his place as the king of spirit,"
"WAIT A SECOND!!! How the hell would I be something powerful? I am a loser!! One big loser! There is nothing special about me!!! I am telling you, you got the wrong kid," Berry said, getting up, trying her best not to cry.
"I know you will say that, actually the king of spirits told me that you will. Look, scroll back your thoughts and see if you are normal or not?" Grandfather said
Berry closed her eyes, yes, how can I be normal? My parents died when I was so young that I can hardly remember. Then HE came along when I was 5 and because of him I cannot trust anyone. Well there was one time when I wanted to get out of a gang of fighters that had cornered me once when I was 11 years old. I was scared stiff and I wanted to get out of there because the gang was holding clubs and guns. There was a bright flash and then the next second I knew, I was sitting on a roof of a building and all the members of the gang was knocked down…
Berry opened her eyes and with a sigh, sat down again.
"See, you are special," Grandfather said
"Yeah, strangely and weirdly special," Berry said, staring at the fire.
"Well I am here to teach you the most advance powers and elements of a shaman. You will know everything about everything. As I know that you will progress really quickly, this training will be over till next year. Then two months you will be charging in the light of the king of spirits and absorbing your ancestor's power. Then it's your wish whatever you do," Grandfather said.
There was a minute silence.
"Is that a reason why HE took me and manipulated me?" Berry asked as tears ran down her cheeks.
"Yes, but his plan didn't work because you figured out that he was using you and you ran away but I am telling you he never gave up on you, he almost broke into your Foster mother's house to get you but he couldn't. He was trying his best to get you at all costs and he will try to get you again when you become the king of spirits," Grandfather said.
"You mean, queen of spirits," Berry said
"Oh, nobody is going to know the gender of the spirit. They will keep on calling you the king of spirits,"
Berry pulled back her sleeves to show silver tattoos on her arms. All of them were white and silver, and were circles and lines.
"Is this normal?" Berry asked, this was the many reasons why she wore full sleeved shirts.
"Yup, I have them too, all the descendant of the king of spirits has them, and they are the signs that they are the descendents and are very powerful. These signs give power and protection too,"
"Really? Then what do you do if you become the KING of spirits?"
"You spread peace and stop unfairness in this world."
"But how am I going to do that when I will be stuck in a stupid white light in a cylinder thingy?"
"Hey, don't say that,"
"Sorry"
"Well, you are going to part yourself, one part will be the light one which will be glowing, he will protect himself and the star century and the other part which will be more powerful will look after… people,"
"How will I part my self? By a knife?" asked Berry
"Its time we get some sleep… training starts tomorrow,"
And with that he waved at the fire which went off.
