Chapter 3: Discovering The Powers
Karla's View
"Oh yes, I've got to go and meet Taylor. I've never done this before and I am so keen to get to know him!", I say excitedly to Sindo. "Erh, good luck out there. If ya ever do find him, that is. Ya know those celebrities are a hard bunch to get to because they're busy just about 24/7!". I nodded at Sindo. "But you do have faith in me, don't you?". Sindo chuckled, "Oh course I do, beautiful girl. Why wouldn't I have faith in such a strong bein' like you? And with all that magic in you, you'll be able to get to that boy in no time".
Sindo's last sentence provoked a thought... About my magic. "Sindo, I'm worried". He answers me, "What's the problem little lady?". I hesitated to say it. Sindo was moving his hands about, telling me to carry on. "Well, the Earthly citizens in Australia have no such affiliations with magic... Any sign of my powers could scare them". Sindo agreed, "Ahaha, yes. I think we'd better work out a solution to that, go to the shelves and grab the black book for me". The black book? "Why the black book?", I asked him. "Because the black book is a record of all the dark powers you posses. These are ones we want to identify and keep to a limit when you go to look for that man". I ask if I should bring anymore books and Sindo says to also bring the white one, for my light powers and the green one, for powers that "Earthly Australian Citizens" would be familiar with.
I came back with the three books and Sindo gave me a blank book to write in. "This 'ere is your diary. You take this with you. We're going to list the powers you can and can't use in the first few pages. Then the rest of this 'ere book is for you to write about what you do with Sir Taylor". I then thought to myself, "Can't use powers". Sindo explained and said that these were powers I had to just keep to a limit but I could use them if I really had to... Like for life and death situations.
"So, I want you to draw a table with three columns for me. In the first column, write 'Light Powers', in the second one, write 'Earth Powers' and in the last one, write 'Dark Powers – Use With Caution", with Sindo saying the last word in a low, shaky manner. So I got the pen of the desk and constructed the table with the three columns. My light powers included things like "nullify", "reverse time" and "swap position". Some Earth powers included "amplify", "swap temperature" and "hover". In the last section, powers included, "invert gravity", "mass implode" and a never to be used power, "ground breaker", which was to lift all the grass and soil of the Earth's surface within a certain range of where I stand and reveal Earth's lava centre.
Once I wrote all the powers in the book, Sindo had a few things to tell me about my light and dark powers. "You can't use the light powers unless you're with Sir Taylor. He is the energy source for your good deed... And then you can't use your dark powers unless you think up something that's gotta be diabolical. So remember to only use your dark and light powers in those urgent times, where you can't save yourself without 'em".
"And now what do I do? I've finished writing in the book". Sindo picked the book up off me, flicked through it and told me to put the white, green and black book back in their places. When I got back, I saw a silver satchel on the desk. "You can't carry a book and pen on it's own. You need some light luggage for support. Take this 'ere satchel and anything you find in that Australia place, put it in the satchel and bring it back here to show me. "Thanks Sindo, I will do just that". He got up again and pointed to the door. "Are ya ready to start your quest for Sir Taylor? We've got to find you a companion first". I told Sindo I can go alone. "Eheh, alright, suit yourself. But then you've got to watch your back. If you get into some evil trouble, you've got those Earth powers and dark powers use... Wisely of course and then the light powers too when Sir Taylor comes to your aid".
