Shadow Men rode at full speed during the night and took the babies from their homes.
A shadow man took a baby from inside the palace, It was the baby of Emperor Shi.After the task was completed they arrived at the kloister in East Mountain. Tzu had the Shadow Men line up each holding a baby.
She walked down the line looking at each babies in the eyes,
" Fire.. Xiu Huo , Chaos & Beauty... Bao Fang, Earth... Kun Lian, Darkness & Brightness... Mu Dān, Enchanting ... Rumi ".She stopped at the end of the line and looked at the Shadow Men.
"From this day forward you and any sons you have or may have will protect these girl at all costs".After that she raised the girls till one day things got to much and they learned of the prophecy...
[Deity Ai's P.O.V]
*10 years later*
"Rumi! you can't run from me I'll catch you"
Ling yells as he runs after her.
Rumi is running then suddenly trips over a tree root that is sticking out of the ground.She laughs while lying there on the ground. Ling stops and stands over her pointing a stick at her like a sword. He laughs and helps her up off the ground. He suddenly notices tree roots and cherry blossoms blooming and wraping around her arms.
"Umm Rumi?" He says looking in dismay.
Her not taking her eyes off his face to notice her arms.
"Yes Ling?"
He points at her arms "Your Arms..".
She looked at her arms and instantly freaks out.
"My arms! "
She screams looking down at her arms. All of a sudden a chaotic ear piercing scream comes from the direction of the kloister, it shakes the ground agressively.
"It's gone!"
Ling says looking at her arms in curiousness."That scream came from the kloister , I have to go Ling", She runs back to the Kloister.
[A few seconds before]
"Thats mine!"
Mu Dān says to Bao Fang as they are playing tug of war with a doll.
Suddenly Mu Dān falls back onto the ground still holding onto the doll. This rips the doll in half, you could see the anger in Bao Fang's face she suddenly lets out a chaotic ear piercing scream that shakes the ground.
Everybody in the kloister covers their ears. At that moment Shadow figure appear surrounding Mu Dān in a defense formation. Tzu runs in to all the chaos,Kun Lian and Xiu Huo comes outside with a look of shock on their face."Girls!" Tzu's shout suprises everyone.
The shadow figures suddenly disappear from around Mu Dān.
"Everybody line up now!"
Everybody afraid of Tzu's voice lines up."Where is Rumi?!"
at that moment Rumi enters the kloister of breath from running.
"Rumi line up Now!"
she looks at Tzu in scared but follows her command."I should've told you this sooner but i was waiting intill you showed signs of your abilities"
She says standing firmly infront of the girls.
"What abilities?! Xiu Huo,Rumi and I don't even have these abilities you speak of"
Kun Lian says confused looking at Tzu."Kun Lian... you've always had your abilities, when you cried it rained when you laughed the sun shined bright when you were angry thunder roared and winds howled , your gift is earth and communications with all living things"
She says looking dearly at Kun Lian.
"But what about Rumi and Xiu Huo?! they dont have theirs yet" , Rumi interupts "I just became one with a tree in the forest some how, so take me out of it ".
Tzu looks at Rumi in shock then at Xiu Huo.
"Xiu Huo has her abilities she has had them since she was a infant, she has the ability to create fire from her hands and she can not be burned by it "
Xiu Huo looks at her hands confused and then a flame forms in her palm then disappears immediately, Xiu Huo clenches her fist and looks up at Tzu.
Tzu walks up and down the line and stops directly in the middle. She looks at the girls with intense eyes, She takes a deep breath and says"Let's get started?" .
