The Victorious Opposition Comes Home (Natsume thread)

[Anastasia]

It feels like warm air, the aura staying in your hand just a split second before being reabsorbed into your body. But for that moment, it was a tiny part of yourself, cut off from the rest of your body and energy.

[Midnight Sun]

'A part of me....and yet not a part of me...' she thinks. 'I wonder....'

Her eyes narrow in concentration on the remaining sparks still floating around her. If these things were a part of her aura, despite being separate from it, it was possible she could still control them to an extent.

'I'll try it, I'll see if I can get them to move how I want...'

[Anastasia]

Gathering your will, you see the sparks bob and flutter to your command for a moment...before they begin to shimmer and fade away. While you do so, you feel a spiritual connection to them, as they move in time to your whim...

[Midnight Sun]

That was certainly an application of ki control that she had never imagined before, but she still did not see how that brought her any closer to mastering her grandfather's technique.

"I'm missing something, and knowing my luck its probably something glaringly obvious," Natsume says with a sigh as she lets her aura dissipate. "I certainly can't ask grandfather for any more clues..."

She mulled for a moment, trying to think of a way out of the rut she was currently facing. She felt she was close, she just needed something to point her in the right direction....

"Hey...maybe I can ask her..." she says as a proverbial lightbulb turns out. "If theres anyone who can make sense of it, Usagi-san can."

[Anastasia]

With that in mind, Natsume has a goal now...to speak with Sailor Moon, Usagi Tsukino.
