The Alchemist- Rika's Turn

The three arrive back to Tibet.

Dave: Francis, it looks like Nikola has a new toy.

Francis: This is not good. I have a feeling that bow has Arrielle's true essence.

Dave: How do you know?

Francis: The arrows did not harm Arrielle. We need to somehow retrieve that bow and extract the essence and give Arrielle back her true form. How did Nikola get that essence from Arrielle?

Arrielle: My dream I had was strange. I felt like something was taken away from me from Donovan.

Dave: That's gotta be it!

A figure rides on a horse towards the three.

Francis: Here's Rika. Arrielle, she will show you some more abilities to use.

Mika: Salutations everyone. Francis, is she the one?

Francis: She sure is. Hadiel and Arrielle, I want you to meet Mika. She travels around and guards this land from trouble.

Dave and Arrielle exchange pleasantries with Mika.

Rika: Arrielle, this particular power has something to do with levitation. It's really useful in times of need.

Arrielle: Rika, are there any limitations to it?

Rika: There is no limits to where you can apply this. The stronger the concentration, the farther you can do this. You see that river with buffaloes crossing?

Arrielle: Yes.

Rika: Watch the little one and I will help it cross without crossing the river.

Rika closes her eyes and the little buffalo levitated to the other side.

Arrielle: That's amazing!

The Alchemist- Matthias Loses

Rufus and Donovan are back at the office.

Rufus: Did you see the arrows did not hurt the chosen one?

Donovan: It's strange that even with the power of Arch Angel, it still knows it's owner.
 As long as Ms. Casinetti is not near the bow, we will use it's power for our purposes. We got a score to settle with Matthias.

Donovan and Rufus visit Matthias's realm.

Matthias: Why are you here Nikola?

Donovan: I want you to feel the power of Arch Maiden in my hand.

Matthias summons his guardians as Rufus deals with them. Matthias gets hit with Nikola's arrows. Matthias is reduced to a white orb and Nikola uses the bow to draw a little bit of Matthias's power.
Nikola uses a part of Matthias essence to create a weapon for Rufus.

Nikola: Rufus, pick a weapon of choice at the pawn shop and I will use Matthias's essence to create your own powerful weapon.

Rufus: Thanks Nikola. I will do that.

Rufus heads out to the pawn shop.

Salesman: Welcome to my store. Are you looking for anything in particular?

Rufus: I am looking for a used recurve bow

Salesman: I am sorry I don't have anymore. You going hunting?

Rufus: Yes. Wild boars.

Salesman: How about a crossbow?

Rufus: Can I see it?


Salesman shows Rufus his prized crossbow. Rufus pays for the purchase and leaves the store. Nikola performs his ritual with Matthias's essence and Rufus is given his own toy to play with.

The one quality that changes everything

In relationships, I personally think that women find irresistible in a man is how he treats family and how he cares for them. Yes it's true that looks, money and status is also good. The bottom line is how you treat and care for your parents and siblings determine the quality of a future wife and GF.

Let's face it,  people would not want someone who would treats family members in a bad way. People may not like in-laws but that is part of the deal when you are with someone. Uncle Bob might not like you, but you cannot change the fact that his favorite niece married you.

Mystery Yogini At Class

About a week or two, a mysterious blonde female came to class. She reminded me of someone I used to know named Lindsey. She came to class and when I was doing a yoga pose, she would smile and look. But when I look at her, she looks away and pretends I am not there. She had that look that she knows me. The first day she came, after class she ran off before I was going to say hi to her.

Today, she came to class and I walked up to her and finally said hi and walked away. I thought I saw her with her brother or male friend a couple of days ago and her friend made a comment towards me. Boyfriends don't make comments towards me when their girlfriend is asking about me. Those things just don't happen.

I remember when Jessi brought her brother to take class and I am sure she wanted her brother's opinion about me.

Anyway this "Lindsey" lookalike looked down and smiled when I said hi to her. She did not expect it at all. The most important thing is I walked up to her and acknowledged her presence.

I am sure she will walk up to introduce herself in the future.

The Alchemist- 3 VS Rufus

Francis takes Dave and Arrielle to a cave to practice.

Francis: Now Arrielle see that dark cave. I am going to show you how to use your palms to create a  blinding light so you can see in the dark. Now Hadiel don't forget to cover your eyes and yours too Arrielle.

Francis takes his palms outstretched and focuses and blinding light starts to spark a few feet from his hands.

Francis; Arrielle, you try it. Focus on creating light as your intention and let the energy flow through you.

Arrielle gives it a try and it works like a charm.

Francis: Good job Arrielle.

Hadiel gets a sense something is wrong in the city.

Dave: Arrielle, we got to get back to the city. I sense Rufus creating trouble. We got to stop him!

Arrielle: Ok Dave. Are you sure you are okay to fight?

Dave: I am sure I will be fine.

Francis: Hadiel, I want to come and assist you both. I got a score to settle with Rufus.

Dave: Ok Francis. Let's go.

The three head to the spot. Rufus creating havoc with the police and destroying cars and causing lots of damage.


Rufus: So Hadiel you and the chosen one come back to challenge me! Hahahaha! What's this? FRANCIS!! You traitor!!!! This is going to be fun!

Francis: So Rufus....we meet again! So Nikola called you to do his dirty work!

Rufus uses an enchanted  steel chain to slow down Rufus as a Cerebus and rides on his back like a horse starts to buckle to throw off Francis. Rufus transforms into his human form with his enchanted bow ready to strike at Francis. Arrielle's hands starts to glow as the arrow from Rufus's bow disappears.

Rufus: How can this be????

Rufus's bow disappears. Nikola appears and his bow comes to him.

Nikola: I am taking this with me Rufus.

Nikola throws fireballs at the three and disappears... Hadiel uses angelic shield to absorb Nikola's fireballs. Rufus transforms into Cerebus and attacks Arrielle as she uses her palms to create the blinding light. Rufus is blinded and disappears out of thin air.

Francis: Thank you Arrielle for saving me.

Arrielle: Your welcome Francis.

Hadiel: We better go guys...it looks like the authorities want to ask us questions...

The three teleport back to Tibet...
