K Diaz: Into the Abyss

Power Over Plants

"She has been gone for like 30 minutes now." Oliver told himself as he paces back and forth. "If she successfully got her blessing, then I only got a little more job to do." He counted all the abilities she has to learn in just a short span of time. "Ughhh" He grunted "There are still so many. I hope she's a fast learner."

Then he hears a creak and stops pacing, thinking it's an enemy. He looked back and narrowed his eyes at the place. The towering trees were silent, and squirrels just run up and down with leaves in their mouths. "Ohhhh" he lets out a relief "just a squi—-rel?" He looked below and realized his foot is coiled up by a vine and next thing he knew; he was screaming at the top of his lungs as he jets up to the sky with his foot up and his head down and sees Kimberly crouching because of the hilarity. She succeeded, he thought. She has a strong faith after all.

"You did it." Oliver said feeling quite dizzy.

"Yep. I did." Kimberly smiled. "So, where are we off to now?"

"To a place you feel relaxed."

"Cool. That'd be the beach in Camiguin." She said "But, what abilities do I have to learn left?"

"Four more Kim. And I think you're a fast learner."

"Once I learn them, what happens next?"

Oliver thought for a while. "You go perform your exorcisms."

"EXORCISM?!!" Her face distorted of horror "Like chanting those Latin Bible verses in order to shoo the demons away?"

"For ordinary mortals, yes. But for your kind, no. I'll teach you how after you learn the four abilities left." He said and got up. "So, let's go?"

"Where?"

"That island you said," Oliver said "Ca—mu—muu"

"Camuiguin." Kimberly chuckled. I still can't believe what's happening in my life, she thought. Just like now, she realizes that she speaks English and it hit her. Did I just go into another dimension and talked to Mother Nature? Did I just commanded the vines to take Oliver up to the sky? She wonders every minute.

"Oliver do you have some cash?" Kim asked.

"Cash like these?" Oliver opens up his palm as thousand peso bills integrate.

"Oh my God. Can you teach me how to that?"

"No. Come on. I know your hungry."

Kimberly rolled her eyes and took Oliver's hand and together, they disappear into the thin air, leaving feathers behind.

Nicholas picked up the silver feathers and burned them on his palm. "To the beach eh? Looks like we have the same favorite place on Earth, Kimberly." The raccoons, squirrels, birds and plants watch as the demon disintegrate into ashes, leaving far and terror behind.
