Wolf of ice

Part 5

"Hey you, wake up!" sleepily I opened my eyes.

Suddenly I woke up, THE BOW. 

I grabbed the bow and pointed it where the voice came from. 

A girl stood at the entrance of the cave. She had long curly white hair, and she wore a black shirt and white skirt.

"Calm down. Daniel already said that a girl had washed up."

Still suspicious, I pointed the arrowhead at her. 

The girl makes a rotational movement with her hand and a small cyclone arose. The cyclone pulled the bow from my hand and placed it outside my reach. Then the wind died down.

Scared, amazed and wide-eyed I sat up, "who are you, what was that, and how do you know Daniel?"

"My name is Ivy, and Daniel is my friend, but what are you doing here?"

I hesitated for a moment, but the girl seemed genuinely interested. 

More grumpy than intended, I snapped: "My name is Leyla, and I've washed up here. I heard the sound of this waterfall and came this way." 

"Okay, relax, you don't have to be mad, I just want to help", Ivy said.

"I'm sorry".

She nodded. "And why didn't you go with Daniel?"

"I couldn't, because eh.. you don't just trust  anyone, do you?"

There was a moment of silence.

"And? And what?", I asked. "What else is there?"

"And... Because I'm taking care of a wolf".

"What? Where?" I got up and held out my hand; "come with me".

She took my hand and we turned the corner. 

As soon as Ivy saw the wolf she put her hand over her mouth. 

"That is not possible!"

"What, what is it?" 

"That wolf... That's Rava!" 

"Who is Rava", I asked. 

"Rava is... Wait do you know the story about the four elementarial spirits on an island?"

"You mean the one where the dark spirit takes over?"

"Exactly! You are on that island now."

"Does it really exist? Wow!"

"Long time ago, when the ghosts were trapped, they decided that they would not let anyone know about their animals in order to protect them".

"What kind of animals? That's what I'm telling you now. Okay, go on".

"They swore to hide the secret here on the island so that only the descendants would meet the animals. Rava is one of those animals, she belongs to the ice spirit. These animals are special because of their colors and intelligence".

As I said, Rava belongs to the ice spirit, Ferraza is a wind phoenix and belongs to me, Sairo is a fennec fox and belongs to the fire spirit and Zoras the deer belongs to the spirit of earth.

"Wait a minute, you said "The wind phoenix belongs to me", does that mean... YOU ARE THE WIND SPIRIT?????"

"Uh, yes that's right."

"Wow. moment, so; the story was real, the wolf I found is called Rava, she belongs to the ice spirit, and I just met the wind spirit. Wow. That also explains the cyclone."

But why are you here, and how do you get that power, and how..."

"Hey, take it easy, one question at a time." 

"Okay, why are you here?" I looked at her.

"Daniel can sometimes be a bit curt, but he means well. Only... Sometimes when people don't know him, they don't experience it that way."

"Deep in thought he entered the Tjara, so I asked what was the matter."

"He told me that there was a girl in the cave by the waterfall, and something about a wolf."

"Yes, which he then shot, yes!"

"Yes, about that, Daniel can explain that to you later. But for now, do you want to come to the Tjara?"

"What is a Tjara?"

"Well", said Ivy,

"the Tjara is a very large tree house underground, the tree is millions of years old. It has become my home."

"Oh, the name Tjara comes from the river the Tjair, which means deepest core in the ancient language".

"Wow cool, but how am I supposed to take Rava with me?"

"No problem, I'll take care of it".

Ivy whistled on her fingers and a beautiful white bird flew into the cave. 

The bird began to fly around Rava, and Ivy began to make circular movements with her hands. 

At first nothing happened, but when I looked more closely I saw that a cloud was slowly forming below Rava. 

As soon as the cloud was big enough and Rava lay on it, the bird came to sit on Ivy's shoulder.

She introduced him as Ferraza, saying she usually called her Ferry. 

Carefully I stroked her back, "you are so soft," I whispered to her. 

Ferry moved her head gently against my hand, "she likes you", Ivy said. "Me too." 

Rava growled softly. "Yes, I like you too", and I stroked her head. 

My touch sent a blue wave of light across her fur. 

Instead of being scared, I felt relaxed and calm. 

I turned around. 

"I'm coming with you Ivy, so lets go to the Tjara."
