Alex could tell she was calm now, and he smiled once more. "Now, breathe in deeply." He said, taking a deep breath. "This will help you understand yourself, strengthen your abilities, and make you an overall stronger person." He opened his eyes, and made sure she kept her eyes closed. Looking over to her, he stated, "Keep that one thing in mind at all times when you do anything. That is now your symbol of hope." He turned back to the cliffside. "My hope is finding any family I have left, and my mission. But, it's slowly turning into my friends here. You, Kaida, Angeal, everyone I know. Everyone important to me, especially you." Alex looked down. "I'm sorry I just left you there, Dezzy. Could you ever forgive me?"
((OOC: Not my biggest post, but it gets the point across.))

Dezzy kept her eyes closed as she replied; "I already have, Alex. You leaving me wasn't a terrible thing. I learned a lot of things while you were away, while I was looking for you. I met some people who taught me a lot of control over my powers. If it wasn't for you leaving me, I'm not sure I'd ever have created my Holy Bolt attack," she blinked open one eye with a smile. "Basically, thank you."
She closed her eye again and took in a deep breath. She really did owe him a lot, more than she had originally realized, now that she really thought about it. She would do this for him. She knew she could rely on him and it was almost comforting knowing that someone like him was a symbol of hope. It almost reminded her of the story books her mother had always read to her, where angels were symbols of love, peace and hope. She chuckled aloud at the thought.

Alex stood up. "What's so funny?" He asked, inquisitively. "Did I forget something? Did I crap myself again!?!" This last one was just a minor joke that he used to say. It usually got anyone to laugh. He looked around and saw that the sun was getting higher and higher. He offered Dezzy a hand up. "Congratulations. You now know basic meditation. C'mon, let's go. We should leave this place. You wake up Kaida, and I'll start packing everything."
Alex took back his hand. She'll be fine getting up. He went into the tent and noticed that Vikki was still asleep. He prepped her up, gave her plenty of food and money, and told her to stay in Junon. She listened to him, and bade him farewell. Alex waved on as she headed to the town. He began to take down his tent, then Dezzy's, then Kaida's. He quickly doused the fire, and sent the extra wood into the water. He minimized the equipment to all fit in his backpack that he bought in Junon. "Ready?" He asked to the others.

Dezzy nodded, feeling strangely disappointed when he pulled his hand away. She got up by herself, wiping any dirt off of herself. She walked over to Kaida shaking the girl. "I know you're awake, Kai-chan. Get up, we're getting ready to leave," she whispered in her ear. She stood, stretching and grabbing her pack.
Kaida stood, grabbing hers as well and watching Alex's progress in removing their gear. As soon as he was done she nodded. "Ready whenever you are," she said, stifling a yawn. She watched as Dezzy approached, staring at the ground in silent thoughtfulness. She smiled at the girl. "You still look tired..."
Dezzy perked up, looking at her. "I'm fine, I'm just thinking, that's all," she said looking at Kaida confusedly.
Kaida gave her a look of mock-horror. "Dezzy, thinking? Is that safe?!" she exclaimed with a grin as Dezzy swatted at the black-haired woman.

Alex looked to the sun. He felt a celestial pressence from his far past somewhere here in this world. Then, a vision of a small, blonde haired girl dancing came into his mind. She was dancing with others who were either in her age group or almost in their twenties. A name came into his head. Maria. This had to be important to him in some way, so he knew what to do next. This girl, Maria, was in Kalm, so he knew he had to go there and see her.
He turned back in time to see Kaida make a joking remark. Then, Alex burst into laughter was Dezzy swipped at Kaida. "Sorry." He said, in between laughs. "I just had a vision of the place we need to go next." He stopped his laughing. "Dezzy, this might be a good place to help you with your People Skills, or maybe understanding the world better." Alex unsheathed Guardian Angel, and looked to the West. "We go off to Kalm." With that, he began to walk towards the small town in the far distance.
((OOC: Okay, you reply, then I'll start again in the post I made in Kalm as Maria. Agreed?))

Dezzy looked at him with wide eyes. "Kalm? Kalm?! Why Kalm? Couldn't we go somewhere pleasant like... I dunno, Costa del Sol or something? Why do we need to go to Kalm?" she asked in a panicked voice. She didn't want to go to the place she had basically raised herself. There were too many haunting memories she didn't feel ready to face yet, though she wasn't going to tell her companions that.
Kaida sighed softly. "If he's seen a vision of it, we better go. There's probably something important there," she told the younger girl. She knew the girl was probably hesitant to go back to Kalm, but it was something she would have to deal with. She looked at Alex. "We won't be able to call her Dezzy while we're there... We'll have to call her Damani until we're well outside the Kalm area. Too many people knew Destiny Fayth in that area, and we can't risk any troubles..."
