Pink sky’s at night, shepard’s delight that was what he had always been told, he would have laughed if he had the strength too. Blood poured from his wounds across the floor of the cage he was trapped in, covering his naked body in the red liquid, his hands were tied tightly around his back but even if he was free he did not have the strength to move them. He was dying of that he was sure; and as he felt the last lines of consciousness drift away he heard a shout.
“Hey take care of him he’s no use to us dead”.

Falnyr felt his soul drift away from his body, fly away to freedom away from all responsibilities and fear. But it did not last. His soul slammed back into his body and his eyes flew open. For the first few seconds he was disorientated wondering what had happened but then his sapphire eyes focused on the figure in front of him. The medic drew his hands away from the prone ninja and walked out of the cage closing the door behind him. All his wounds were gone all that remained was a dull ache where before had been sharp pain. Something however was different. He could feel his soul inside him, was all too aware of it.

He lay there shocked, wondering why this had happened, wondering why he could suddenly know his soul in so much detail. The feeling made him sick at first, completely unaware of how to process such a thing, but as the sun set and plunged the world into darkness he managed to get used to the feeling. His sapphire eyes looked around the caravan, spotting the two guards for the first time they watched him closely in the torchlight looking for any sign of escape. With his hands tied up it was pointless even trying. He began to wonder what they were feeling, guarding a helpless prisoner with no chance of escape. An aura of colour burst into life around one of them lasting only for a second before fading away into nothingness.

Falnyr was caught completely off guard by this and he had to smother a gasp at what he had just seen, was he going insane? He looked back at the guard; the aura was gone now no sign it had ever been there. He looked again trying to grasp it back, will it back into existence but nothing came. Maybe he was going insane after all, as the thought passed through his head the aura came back into existence. It was a pale blue and for the second that he saw it he thought that it meant this person was relaxed.

How did he know that…? The aura sputtered out again and Falnyr knew that this time he had not imagined it. He looked at the figure again trying to repeat whatever he had done a second before trying to get that pale blue aura to spring back into life. For a few seconds nothing happened before the aura sprung back into brilliance once again, he smiled despite himself still proud of his accomplishment despite the mess that he had gotten himself into. He turned his eyes back to the guard and focused once again trying to get the aura to stay put this time.

He focused his mind and soul once again trying to make the aura that had been so clear come back to life. He reached out trying to find out what this person was feeling, he closed his eyes hoping that would help his focus and tried with all his might to make the aura appear. He opened his eyes. The aura had come back brighter than ever, swirling with colour around the peaceful looking man. For a moment he wallowed in successes proud at his accomplishment, before all signs of the glowing aura faded from existence.

Falnyr felt frustrated at this lack of progress and doubled his efforts, this time he focused on the other man. He tried to get that aura to appear again, this time focusing all of his new awareness of the soul upon this task. The aura burst into existence around the man, this time the pale red of simmering anger. He smiled as the aura did not fade away and he looked back at the other man to see the blue aura surrounding him. The caravan drew to halt and Falnyr lost his concentration the aura’s fading into nothing, at least he knew how to do it again if he wanted to.

The wagons grinded to a halt and out of the darkness of the night emerged a grizzled figure, a scar ran diagonally down his face almost cutting in two and he wore a twisted smile devoid of any compassion or remorse. Falnyr shivered involuntary as the cold of the night finally bit into him and the man laughed. He moved over to the guards whispering orders that Falnyr was unable to hear, he then turned and exited the wagon giving the blonde haired ninja a final smile before he stepped out into the darkness.

Cold bit into him now stronger than ever before, biting into his naked skin. He shivered again and with his new awareness of the soul he could see the cold itself running through it. If this had been a normal day he would have been shocked at this discovery but everything that had happened today numbed him to any sense of wonderment. All that he felt was a hard practicality of how to get warmer. A desperate idea formed in his mind and he tried manipulating the heat inside his soul, trying to manipulate to be warmer. A flush of heat passed through him that vanished as quickly as it had come and the smile came back onto his face.

It was freezing cold again now any trace of warmth gone but Falnyr was now filled with a sense of hope instead. He tried to do it again tried to manipulate the very heat inside him, he focused all his attention on his soul trying to change it so it was full of heat and warmth. He pictured volcanoes, deserts and tried with all his might to pump heat into himself. He went too far. Falnyr broke out in a sweat as the heat passed through him, it was unbelievably hot but then it got hotter. He felt his skin begin to burn with the new heat and desperately he tried to reverse what he had done.

Pain ran through him as the burns became more intense and he gasped as the heat went through him, he was panicking now, knowing that if it got hotter it could kill him. He poured his last ounces of strength into the effort to get his soul back under his control and with an almost inhuman amount of effort he felt the cold begin to settle back into him. For a moment he just lay there on the floor panting, as he felt relief and shock rush over him. He shivered again this time not from the cold, he had nearly killed himself.

The wagons began moving again and Falnyr just lay there afraid to try and attempt it again, but as the night deepened and the coldness returned he resigned to trying it yet again. He turned his attention to his soul once again recognising the pattern of coldness that ran through it, he focused his strength once again trying to make the cold disappear. The heat began to pour into him once again and he felt his temperature meet a more normal level, careful to keep control this time however not letting it exceed to the levels where it had been before. He smiled as the coldness of the night left him and he was warm again, this was all pointless in the end though. He had no chance of escape, no chance of surviving all he was doing was spending time until the inevitable took him.

The cage door swung open crashing against the side of the cage, sending out a metallic clang that woke Falnyr from his sleep. His eyes flew open just in time to see a bundled up figure be thrown violently into the cage. The torches that had lit the room had long since faded into nothingness shrouding the new arrival in shadow and darkness that even his eyes could not pierce. A few groans emerged from the body but nothing that could be considered speech, Falnyr sighed wishing that he could do something to help the figure.

But he could not even see her wounds not in this pitch black no matter how hard he tried; this utter darkness strengthened his sense of the soul that burned brightly within him. His sapphire eyes shined brightest of all inside his soul but they were still too weak to pierce through the blackness; he had heard tales of creatures. Creatures from other worlds that could see in low light as if it was clear as day, how he wished he had eyes like those. As this thought echoed through his mind he noticed his eyes within his soul began to change no longer human they changed into something else, alien and unfamiliar. For a moment he thought he could make out the figure of a naked woman, bruises and cuts covering her body. But as quickly as they had changed his eyes faded back to their human counterpart.

For a moment he lay there shocked at what he had done to himself, he quickly recovered though more than accustomed to shock now. He needed to get a better look at that woman; he went back inside himself trying to grasp what he had done only a few seconds before. He focused. The eyes of those strange aliens running through his mind, trying to alter his eyes into the power that they possessed. For a while nothing happened, only darkness greeting his stare. But then his eyes changed into those ageless eyes and he could see the woman lying prone on the ground once again. It was a sad sight and in the depths of his heart Falnyr wished that he could do something to help her.

Despite his best attempts to hold onto the vision that he had gained it faded away once again, leaving him sightless. He almost cursed as he lost that vision, he needed to help this person and for that he needed to see. Every ounce of his being wanted those eyes back, the eyes that could pierce the darkness and let him see. His sapphire eyes closed and when they opened again they were no longer human. The eyes of a planar being stood in their stead, he could see clearly now, see clearly every scar and wound that marked that once beautiful body. His vision flickered and he almost cursed as he tried with the last of his strength to keep those eyes working.

He succeeded, this time the eyes did not fade away, did not turn back into the weak human eyes he had possessed before. A smile formed upon his lips despite of himself and he looked at the female figure trying to gauge how bad the wounds were. It did not look good, bruises and cuts covered her naked body. The smile slowly disappeared as he realised that this woman was probably going to die. He almost felt like crying out in rage as he cursed his futility at being able to doing nothing but watch.

Falnyr looked at the injured woman on the floor sadness welling up inside him. He was so helpless, not able to save someone who lay a few feet away from him. He sighed and let his enhanced vision fade away plunging the world into darkness once more, he did not want to look at that body any longer. All he could do was hope; hope that the same medic that had saved him would show mercy onto her as well. But even as the sun shone above the horizon no one came.

Falnyr once again looked at the body praising the morning light that allowed him to see clearly, he had heard groans during the night but nothing that could be considered speech. He looked at the prone figure and saw something that chilled him to the bone. Her soul was slipping away. It was only there for a second and vanished as quickly as it had come, but a feeling of dread encased Falnyr. The vision had only increased his certainty that she was going to die. He looked again trying to recapture the vision, trying to see how far that this soul was to leaving its earthly case. For a moment nothing happened, but then the vision burst back into existence. He saw her soul, clean of all the bruises and cuts that her body possessed but it was slipping away from her, slipping away into the void. The vision slowly faded and Falnyr lay there, simply watching as silence descended upon them all.

It took him a while before he could bring himself to try again, not wanting to see her soul slip away, not wanting to see her die when he could nothing. But with the last of the willpower that he had he forced himself to try again, he focused on the beaten and bloody body on the ground trying to recapture the same sight he had seen before. It flared into existence and he saw the soul starting slip away from its mortal body. If only he could do something, anything to help this woman. He tried to move closer but all he accomplished was a break in his concentration forcing the fleeting image away.

There was no hesitation this time, he immediately turned his attention back to the strange soul vision he had been granted. He closed his eyes and focused. Slowly his sapphire eyes opened and revealed her soul. It was slipping away even further now, the body giving up its last desperate attempts to hold onto the thing that would make it live. If she did not get help soon, it was almost certain she would. Falnyr shouted for help a note of pleading in his voice as he watched the person’s soul slip away.

His voice was answered by a set of footsteps rushing towards the cage, Falnyr’s face broke into a smile of relief as he saw the face of the familiar medic rushing towards him. Falnyr could see his soul as well now, still tightly held onto by his body, nowhere near death. The figure opened the cage and quickly rushed over towards the body, hands glowing with the familiar light of healing. He was only just in time, just before the medic reached her Falnyr saw the last strands of soul begin to fade away. He almost wept in relief as he saw her soul return to her body and heard her groans as the medic stepped away and walked out of the cage, leaving Falnyr with the still unconscious woman.
