The sky was just waking with the first rays of the morning light like a figure could be seen doing a morning exercise from their long forgotten ancestors. It was to help one center and find peace among themselves and one with the land around them. She could feel presents all around her of life coming from the ground that grew the plants the plants themselves and other being in the area. She was waiting for her student to meet up and take up the lesson with her.

Serafina was running a mile a minute through the busy village. Dodgeing carts, just missing a lady carrying eggs and so forth. People shouted at her, shook their fist or barked angrily as she jutted past.
" Watccccccchhhhh where you are goingssssss" Hissed a snake feral as it slithered cross the ground.
" Sorry!" The red headed bobcat cried back. Dancing around as she waved to the feral and then continued on her way.
" I'm going to be late..... she's never going to let me be a spirit seeker if I keep this up!" She whined like a little kid. The feline being only of 16 years of age ran fast, before finally skidding into the clearing where her teacher awaited her.
" Sorry I!!!" She started then stopped as she fell, haveing tripped over a small rock on the ground. With a wince and a moan she held her knee for a second before getting back to her feet.
" Sorry." She corrected herself as she bowed with her ears to the side and her tail hanging low on her backside.

"Serafina less talk and more exercise come," she said patting the ground next to her with her legs cross indian style with her eyes closed and arms resting at a 90 degree her side. Paws extended palm open facing skayward she began humming. Her tail lay behind her as her ear flicked toward her student.
"To be one with yourself you must let go and explore your dreams, spirit, and memories of those around you. Letting go of yourself you can gain the power of the deity to know more of the world," she said.

Serafina sighed as she joined her teacher, mimicing her stance upon the earth she settled next to her.
" Okay, okay...." She replied as she closed her eyes as well. Expecting to see some sort of mystical vision.... though of course all she got to see was the back of her eyelids.
" Not seeing, not seeing... not seeing..." Nope no visions, but of course that could of been due to her rushed excited nature, like a fire burning through a summer wood. Serafina always found it hard to concentrate.

WintersKiss growled and spoke sternly, "You must concentrate Serafina you can not rush such things girl," she said to her student knowing the younger ones were all like this a great deal.
"Keep your eye close no matter what you feel or hear staying in that same position," WintersKiss said as she stood up taking her staff as well as she drew a large circle around the girl. She then moved back four paces drawing another larger circle. She struck the jewel of her staff against the ground as a large blue flame became engulped between the two circles.
"Now with your eyes close image blue flames for you know that is the color that mine appear when I use power granted to me from of Flameing Deity," she said sternly one paw upon her hip that was thingyed to the side as she closely watched the girl to see what she could do.

" Okay." She sighed, wincing a bit at the stern voice. She closed her eyes.
" Okay... and then what?" The girl ashed Winter as her hair flicked about from the power that was shown in the image of blue flames between the circles. She concentrated as hard as she could. Praying she did whatever she needed to do right but well... what was she supposed to do?

"Now you need to image having your own inner fire and tell me what coloring it would be for that would be the flame that connects everything to you and or power. For it's the able that our deity provides us," she said while taking her own movements as she began to chant in a old language passed down to the shamans of the tribes.

Serafina closed her eyes, imagineing the flames within her. As she did so a small red, white and orange flame burned within the darkness.
" I see it. I see it. It's a mixture of colors, reds and whites and even a bit of yellow, like the natural fires." She smiled as she concentrated hard on the burning flame, her tail started to flick back and forth behind her excitedly, as her own flame burned within her, the power was being sent to Winter's flame, helping her strength to grow if just by a tad, barely noticeable by many a shaman.
" Now what?" She smiled happily

WintersKiss went on with her chant as she began sensing something that was barely there but cause her to wonder but let it slide as she helped her student move further into the vision.
Speaking softly like a soft wind she smiled, "Now as if your could reach for the flame with your hand use your mind and will power and reached for that flame wishing for it to rest in your hand but not burn you," she said tapping her staff three times on the ground.

In the vision Serafina went to reach for the flame, attempting to have it touch her hand, to float abouve it in her mind, though instead the flame took hold of her claws and burned deeply, a vision that wasn't quite a vision as her hand burned within the real world too. With this she backed up, yelping in pain only to loose the vision as her paw pads blistered a bit from the heat.
" Ow." She winced, holding her own hand in utter pain and looking to Winter Sadly.
" I suck at this stuff." She pouted just a bit.

WintersKiss flicked her ears forward in interest taking in the scene before her as she knelt down taking the girl's paw slowly into her own to examine it. Her blue orbs scanning the scene before her. Standing back up she turned motioning for the girl to follow her quickly.
"Come I've some stuff that will ease the pain and also reduce swelling," she said as she walked away from the shrine's grounds to her own home made from trees and clay bricks to be a hut she used to house things she kept up with. Holding the small fabric she had woven herself from natural things she collected she turned waiting for the girl to enter the hut.

Serafina followed behind her. Entering the hut with a frown.
" Your so nice to me Winterkiss, everyone else just calls me a failure." She pouted as she shook her head, her ears going to the side as her tail flicked back and forth with agitation for her failure.
