Where to start? Emer couldn't even place a time or place, that he had bent so much in one night. Or anything even close to the work out. Standing up, the tall Kagami began to stretch his body. Looking around, he saw Mimikku passed out on the ground beside him. She was curled up in a tiny ball, a laugh almost escaped the battered Kagami as he stood up. Moving around with a quick and silent pace, he managed to get his clothing piece by piece and put it back on. Looking back at Mimikku he decided that he wasn't going to wake her at the time. Stepping out of the small forest at the base of the mountain, he looked around slightly, wondering what had possessed him last night, to go with a woman that he had recently just got done stabbing. Irith still groggy in his mind, as the sun hasn't even broken the horizon yet.
Deciding not to dwell on it too much, he had told her, he'd show her what he could be like for one night, and he also didn't mind it in the slightest. In fact it was fun for him, so much so that he didn't know how much time had passed. It went from bright afternoon, to late night before they had been done. Mimikku didn't even have the strength to get up and walk to the cave, so they sort of just slept out in the open. Shaking his head slightly, Emer's hand reached up grabbing the side of it, wondering what was going to happen today. But, for some reason, he couldn't get angry today. In fact, when he saw himself in the waters reflection, he noticed how soft his expressions where. No matter how much he scowled, the rough facial features of his was gone.
"Huh... I'm not sure what's going on today, but... I can't seem to be angry today.... Huh?" He was slightly confused as he stood up. But that was enough for now, the young male Kagami walked out into the middle of the desert. Beginning to stretch for a moment, he took a deep breathe, before he took off in rapid movements, he figured he'd do a dance so old, that most would have forgotten it by now. But, it was simply a ceremonial dance by the Kagami's in order to celebrate their goddesses. Normally he wouldn't do such a thing. His cloak dropping to the ground revealing his bare chest as he kicked up the sand underneath him. The sand flew up into the air around him, now this was normally done with ash, but he didn't exactly make a fire last night, so sand would have to do.
His body moved about, twisting and turning, every hand movement, caused the sand to swirl around it, each movement with his feet, caused more sand to appear. His twirls and twist, causing the sand to move to the current of his body, causing mixed swirls within the air, as if the sand itself was shifting on it's own command, displaying an ever shifting pattern, but all in which follow the kagami's quick movements. Even so much as following him, when he leapt and twisted in the air, as he had caused such a turbulence around him when he was moving on the ground. This was an advanced step, as you basically would jump from different ashes, getting the different colors mixed in, to make like a rainbow, but here he had nothing like that. Instead he just gathered more sand when he landed. Now, only part of the kagami seemed to be visible.
As he danced within the small sand like tornado, that clung to his every movement. Though, inside you'd catch a glimpse of white hair, and the red eyes. Mixed with the color of his hair. Thinking for a moment, Emer got a perfect idea, sand heated up at different temperatures, would make a variety of colors. Allowing his Ki to flow out into the surrounding sand. Making sure to heat up the sand at different paces, even without the control over what part, it slowly began to change. The sand around him turning a variety of colors. A bright blue, along with a black, mixed in with a dark purple, soon grey joined the fray. And finally the last mix into it, was almost like a red color. Giving him all the basic colors he needed for the next part. His dancing seemed to change for a moment.
With the shift in his movements, the sand around him began to shift and change, this is where the Kagami's dance came into something amazing. The colors, seemed to start mixing properly as he shifted. It started playing a scene, it was the start of the kagami, the blue symbolizing the stars, red was the ground, as it shifted and moved. The black was the sky in which they fell from, the purple was the sun rising in the distance. The grey, almost looking as if it had been a person, a crudely drawn person, as they looked nearly like stick figures. But it was a pretty sight none the less. To watch it move across the red field, as it shifted behind him, dropped down and he fell down the slopes chasing after the fallen star. Then as the blue hit the red sand, they mixed together looking like an explosions.
Twisting up sharply, it was harder to do with just one hand, A kagami should of been able to make everything flow smoother, but he couldn't do it with one hand. As the sand started shaking and fluctuating, causing the entire picture to fade from view for a moment, before coming back. As the comet that had struck the ground, turned into what looked like a blue angel standing in front of a lone grey stick figure. Progressing forward, the story showed the mortal, and Angel falling in love, giving birth to children, that where born. Within the sand those figures where, Grey in body, but had their head mixed with blue. This was to represent the Kagami that are what they are today. Born with the goddesses inside of them. The story continued to play out, with the angel crying at her loved ones death. Causing her to split herself into several different bodies. The blue from the angel, flowing to the rest of the bodies, as if dissipating.
There was more of the story to tell, but Emer finally allowed his body to slow down and stop. As he fell backwards letting out some heavy breathes. He had to move his body even faster than the normal Kagami's. To make the sand flow correctly. Even if it got choppy at some parts. Some colored sand clinged to his body, as he was pouring with sweat. Reaching his hand up and brushing the sweat away from his eyes, Emer stood up, allowing himself to stretch out a little bit. His body aching from the warm up. "Whew... I haven't done that in a long time hahaha." Irith inside of his mind was surprised, what he had just done, was only around when the ancient kagami's where still alive. Did this mean, in his ritual he got memories of the ancients, from the elder of his village. That should be impossible, as they where all thought to have perished, not a single ancient Kagami remained among them. And yet, she just witnessed her story, in the form of a dance, that others had made so long ago.
