Eskion -god of all
Flower's bloom and wilt (one shot)

Flower's bloom and wilt (one shot)

Two centuries I've been alive, not much if you're a godling, I suppose I'm grateful, I still have a long way to go till I'm actually going to be useful, I want to be there for eskion, well the other god too... I kinda forgot her name, I sigh a third time and my shoulders droop, this was hard, if I was going to be traveling with eskion I needed some basic skills, to wield energy, control souls, maybe know a few basic skills but here I am,i couldn't even get a flower to bloom, I've tried screaming, meditating, even the close your eyes really tight and believe in yourself technique and god knows nothing was happening, the flower was right in front of me sitting there as if mocking me,i was seconds away from crushing it... why can't I concentrate?, maybe it was because the sunlight was too bright or the fact that I kept sneaking glances at eskion and Leila, who had refused to even give me basic instructions on what to do, make a flower bloom? How the heck was I supposed to do that!!!

"I'm done" I say annoyed

"Huh?" Eskion and Leila turn to me

"I can't get the stupid thing to bloom" I huff

"Your energy is all over the place, concentrate" Leila said

"How?!" I yelled

"Breathe" eskion said calmly

I inhaled deeply then exhaled, I was exhausted, sitting in one place for hours made my legs feel like jello

"Sorry, exhausted" I said to Leila

"Yeah I can relate" she smiles

"You're trying to create energy" eskion picked up the flower and yawned

"What?" I ask

"Basic rule, energy can't be destroyed or created, just transferred" he stated

"I'm lost here" I arch my eyebrow

"Well you need a medium, you could use anything from the earth to yourself, technically using the earth you're hurting it so using your body Is more practical for an angel" Leila explained

"You could transfer energy from yourself, like so" he concentrated on the flower, he breathes in and out and slowly the flower starts to bloom

"You shouldn't force these things though" Leila said

"Yeah if you use a bit more energy even by mistake..." He purses his lips and the flowers wilts and dies

"That happens" Leila says

"Try it" eskion opens his palm and a rose forms, I frown and take the flower

'It should be easy, just do it like he did' I say to myself, first focus on your energy then try and transfer it to the flower, you are the medium, I shut my eyes and when my eyes open the rose is slowly blooming

"I'm doing it!!!" I say excitedly... And it wilts

"W-wtf " my jaw drops

"You should try not to get too excited" Leila says

"You could have warned me earlier" I mutter

Eskion trues not to laugh while I pout

"It's uh another basic rule, you have to be really focused"

"Even for such a little spell?" I ask

"Well yeah, I mean manipulating energy is tricky, sometimes its better to let nature run its course" eskion says

"Even gods have to be careful while bending nature" Leila lectured

"Yeah yeah"

"You know how every bad guy got fucked up, they got too greedy or they tried to create energy and it cost them a lot" eskion said

"Language" Leila scolded

"Sorry" he apologized un sincerely then turned to me

"Remember everything has a price, even the littlest tricks"

"If there's always a price, how do you know you're doing it right?"

"Usually there's a little pain or basic exhaustion, nothing serious" eskion says

"What do you use, for a medium that is?"

"Myself; I kinda have countless reserves of energy; comes with being a god" eskion smirks and leila scowls

"What happened to being humble? " she asks

He sticks out his tongue and I smile, for gods, they're really childish, Its better than being stuck with the serious types I guess, I lay back in the grass and watch them bicker, then stare at the suns and marvel, just how much energy would have been needed to make all of this? Maybe someday I would be able to...

"Amearys help me out here!!!" Eskion calls out to me, running around the field with leila behind him

"What kind of god are you!! Asking an angel for help?!" Leila yells

"You're scary" eskion yells back at her

"And you're dead!!! " she yells

"Amearys!!!!!!"
