His cold hands make contact with head, "Just stay calm. Relax and ill do the rest. Once you feel sleepy, do not fight it that's just us entering your consious"
"Okay. I'm ready" I lie while bracing myself for what I'm assuming is a unknown feeling that's about to come over me. But nothing really happens, it's like peace and warm spreads from the top of my head throughout my whole body. I start to feel numb, and not the bad way. Like sleep is coming over me, okay. He did say that's good. My eyes feel so dry and heavy.
"okay, okay. WOAHH. I'm getting really tired" I say, my forced attempt to stay calm very clear in my tone. I hear Luca struggle to surpress a laugh but I ignore it seeing I mind drift off to sleep soon.
He starts to rub my temples, "Remember that's the aim Kai, just relax. Sleeping will make it so much easier and much more comfortable for you" okay, okay, yeah. He did tell me the sleepy feeling is good. I take a 3 deep breaths and I stop fighting the urge to drift off. I close my eyes, and even though everything around me goes dark and jet black I can still feel that familiar warmth encase me.
I suddenly feel rested after just afew seconds, so I open my eyes and am not even surprised to see im once again in that distorted- glitched out forest clearing. Up ahead I can see the cave/opening in the mountain that's been caved in. I can still see that glow behind the rocks is still prominent through some of the gaps between rocks, but the resisting force isn't here anymore. I can just walk up to the rocks.
Walking up to the barred cave entrance I get the urge to touch the rocks, and come to think of it I haven't touched anything here if u exclude the ground im standing on obviously.
I touch a rock and idk for sure what im feeling, i had ecpected my hand to go right through, but its solid. Not solid-solid though, its lumpy and idk. i retract my hand, getiing a omnious feeling right now. I look up and see the caves entry is like 10 metres high. dam. 'So what now?' I think to myself.
Something tells me i should 'MOVE THE ROCKS' .
'Professor??' i question.
No response. But it couldn't be him, it sounds like my voice just deeper and more growl-ish.
Eitherway I turn back to the rocks and look for the smallest one to push first. I throw afew hand sized rocks to the side but how am i surposed to move the big rocks, or all the rocks, like entry is 14 metres wide and 10 metres high, and its completely barred. Not to mention if its layers of rocks. I can also just try and move the ones at the bottom and in hopes it starts to make them tumble. stupid yeah I know but im lazy. I push the rock i touched earlier, it starts to move abit. I turn around and put my back against the rock and my legs on some other rocks so that i can push with my legs. It finally budges, i stand straight up again before it tips over. once im on my feet i give the final push. The moment it starts to fall over everything is black, everything and everywhere, I just see black, except for a like hole with light coming through at the faaarrr end of the darkness, a piece of the darkness cracks and then chips away so more light enters.
Suddenly im back infront of the cave, just intime to flitch when the sound of the rock falling to the ground hits.
That vision was so weird, but i understand now. "You could've just told me to move the rocks in the first place Prof" I say loudly to no one in particular, hoping the Professor can hear me, otherwise that was just embarrassing.
I get it now, MOVING ROCKS= UNLOCKING MY MAGIC. The metaphor was somewhat clear, the dark place with the light holes looked exactly like the place i imagined when he told me to i=envision my magic flowing through a something-something I can't rememeber. So that means the rocks signify whats blocking my magic from being in full use.
