Holy Ghost Lineage

"Why wouldn't I be able to see you anyways" he spoke angrily after her scaring him.

"Because no has been able to see me since I've awakened. I'm a reaper, can you tell me anyone who can see death." She snorted while looking away.

"Well apparently I can, and you look pretty alive to me besides the whole no pulse thing. Thats creepy" he said while sitting down to cook his meat from the already dead fiend.

She didn't even respond. She just stared at me like I was a ghost or something. As if she wasn't the weird one. A little girl maybe 11 years old, just awakened and had killed all these wolf monsters around us.

Then she asked something I've been wanting to know my whole life, "do you know your lineage."

I looked up from the meat and the fire with sorrow on my face, "no I haven't awakened" with a pause then adding, "I'm 17 and haven't awakened so I will probably never awaken."

"HaHaHa"

"What are you talking about." She asked while laughing in my face, "you have the strongest soul lineage I've ever seen, I can't even tell what it is like I can with other people."

I blew what she said off as a bad joke to cheer me up. Then began taking the meat off the fire and handing her one.

She took it looking at me then said, "wake up fool, I think you've been awakened since you were born. That and the fact that your signature can't be detected properly, even by me, is why no one noticed."

Still reluctant to believe her I asked, "then why couldn't I tell I was awakened. Or are you gonna tell me that I've been sensing it the whole time."

"Hmmm, You probably were."she waited for a while after I didn't respond and continued, "would you like me to help you sense your soul signature."

Finally giving up on trying to act not interested I quickly choked down the 4 oz slice of meat I had cooked first. Then smiled and scooted around the fire to sit right in front of her with our legs crossed and knees barely touching.

I took her free hand that didn't have the meat kabob and bowed, "teach me please, I can't wait any longer."

She grinned mischievously and put a hand on my chest right where my heart would be. Without saying a word pushing me onto my back with the icy mountain pressed against me.

Then finally speaking as she crawled on top of me straddling my mid abdomen with her hand still on my chest, "I'll show you my souls signature to help you find yours. Now close your eyes."

As I closed my eyes it felt as if I was being pulled from my body. Not painful in any way just a new feeling. As my conscious crossed into her body it became dark. Almost to the point where you'd think there was nothing around you.

Except I felt a distinct pull. While watching my expression and seeing I could feel it she said, "that pull is your soul signature, it represents and holds your gods lineage, powers, future capabilities, and some other stuff but I didn't have a complete education so I've been learning as I go. That's what you'll have to do too."

As she was revealing details I started to feel different parts of the pull from her signature.

The first was her power. As I separated it and felt it's independence a cold and dark energy rushed at me. It felt strong, extremely so, but it also felt lonely.

I looked at her and she had a grin on her face, but beneath all the covers I could tell she felt it too. The deep loneliness and feeling of an all consuming death.

So I decided that I wouldn't read the rest of her signature now and asked her to take me back as I was ready, "Im certain I can reach here in a couple hours. Let's go."

As my conscience floated back into my body I felt the outside cold and icy ground again. I opened my eyes but didn't move. I just layed and searched for the pull in my crest area.

The first step to awakening is to find your signature, which the last time I attempted to try was when I was 13. Although, now with the new insight I could just feel like I could do it.

After 90 minutes of grasping at the similar pull coming from myself, I could feel the sweat dripping off my body.

I thought to myself why am I sweating this much it's clearly freezing out. Also thinking that I had made no progress still.

Then she started laughing as if she could read my mind, "Hahaha you look so funny, is this how I looked when I first started. pffft." She paused laughing again then reminded me of something that should've been obvious, " don't think of it as an organ or bone, it's in a whole different space so you have to feel then enter the space not just feel it."

I kept focusing trying not to be distracted. taking her advice I finally grasped the small space in my chest and then pulling my conscious into it like she did earlier.

When I opened my eyes in this new space, the pull was amplified and calling out to me.

When I looked towards the pull I saw a man floating off the surface. He was intangible and transparent. However, carrying similarly human features. Tall, slender but with defined muscles on his upper half. Then he was covered with a similarly intangible white cloth covering his lower half down to his shins. I couldn't hold my thoughts, "What exactly are you." I blurted out

With a gentle smile on his face he approached and looked down at me, "I'm the Holy Ghost your lineage."
