Understanding

My head was spinning, I felt dizzy even though the pain I felt from before began to subside. As I took a few deep breaths, I was beginning to feel mentally exhausted.

Slowly standing, the memories of a life I never lived swirled in my mind, a life that was mine yet not at the same time.

Left confused more than ever I was left to piece together who I was. Am I Dante or Yasu? Walking over to a tree I sat under it, taking a few more deep breaths I crossed my legs as I attempted to organize my thoughts.

'These memories that I've gained gave me a lot to think about. I now have a lot more knowledge of the world, yet I still feel clueless. I'll need to properly learn everything.'

Sighing to myself I set my thoughts aside to deal with later as I began to meditate, it was kind of a hard habit to get rid of, especially after doing it for so long.

*Thump* *Thump* *Thump*

My body jerks as I open my eyes, breathing a bit heavier, I stare down at my hands.

"What was that?"

It felt as if a pulsating energy was flowing through my whole body. Looking up from my hands I couldn't help but notice that day turned to night as I was stuck shocked at how long I was out.

'Whatever, let's try finding that energy again.'

Refocusing, I begin meditating once more, attempting to find the energy that I felt within myself.

As I meditated, I could sense the energy again, this time a lot clearer than before. Opening my eyes I gained a smile on my face as I quickly jumped up to my feet.

'No, let's not get too excited yet. I have to test if it's true.'

Walking away from the tree I was under I walked out into the open, standing still as I closed my eyes. Breathing in and out, I get into a stance, calming myself as I listen to the wind drive past my ears.

"HA!"

Lifting my foot, I stomped it toward the ground, hard, hoping what I did would work. As my foot connected to the ground huge waves of earth rose in the direction I stomped my foot.

I couldn't help but muster a laugh, after all this time, finally, I was able to bend.
