The next day I woke up and got dressed. I put on a pair of black spandex and a 'muscles loading' off shoulder crop top with a black tank top underneath. After I pulled on a pair of black with midnight blue laced adidas high tops. I pulled my hair into a messy pony tail and walked into the kitchen. Dad was up and making breakfast. For breakfast he made us chocolate chip pancakes, home fries, and sausage. One of my favorite meals. Once he set it in front of me I picked up my for and chowed down while being respectful. I don't want to make a mess now do I because then I would have to clean it up. If that happened I would be late for training and Erza would kill me. Erza is big on punctuality.
Once I finished I washed and put away my dished and head to the abandoned soccer field. Today I have to run a mile and meditate to see if I can find the essence of my ability. I did a light jog to get to the field faster. Walking is an hour and a half but since I jogged I got her in forty five minutes. New record for me yeah!
As I came upon the field I see Mira and Erza stretching. I jogged over near them to join before my run. "Morning Mira, Erza," I greeted. "Morning Lucy," they responded simultaneously. After our greetings we were silent and continued stretching. I reached for my toes, did some lunges, and some splits. That was all I did for stretching before Erza got up and told us to start running. I got up and started to run without any hesitation.
I was able to run eighty percent of the miles before I felt fatigued. Being able to run a mile is a new accomplishment for me. Before I unlocked my ability I could only run thirty percent of mile and when I stopped I would faint. I finished but it was a close call to having my walk the last twenty percent but I finished without stopping. Erza had pride in her eyes and that made me happy. She knows how much I can run because whenever I would run she would be with me.
We all sat and took a quick two minute break before they show my how to find the essence of my ability while meditating. All I can say was that the break was over way to soon. I was sitting like a first grader during share and tell. Yep you called it cross cross apple sauce way. I had my arms relaxed on legs while the hands were resting on my knees. "Now, Lucy, I want you to block the outside world. I want you to release your hold on your physical senses and let you mind drift into your soul. That's all I can tell you todo. You have to find your own way from there to find your essence," Erza explained. I thought that was simple enough. I would meditate a lot when I didn't have my ability so I could have clear mind. I didn't like negative thoughts so I would meditate to help my mind become clear of all negativity.
I took me about three minutes to fall into my meditative state. My mind drifted and it was drawn towards something glowing a golden yellow and midnight blue. Two contrasting colors yet they are blending so well. As I got closer the glow got brighter and brighter. Once I was able to touch it I was sucked into it. This must be my soul. Once I was able to see clearly I noticed I was laying on a blanket looking up at the stars. Which I thought was weird sense I'm not outside but I guess anything is possible in your soul. I could see a lot of the constellations. I can see the zodiac, Canis Minor, Orion, Andromeda, and Draco.
"Hello Lucy and welcome to soul," a gentle female voice spoke.
