"Yeah. Like I said, all you have to do is concentrate for a while," the hybrid replied to her worried inquiry. Before Creatia could push further with her plea to join him, he had to stop her. She clearly wasn't ready yet; she was still so damn naïve.
"Look. You can't come with me. Travel around and get used to the place. Then come find me." His silence called it a done deal.
"I...." She clasped her hands together nervously. Jupiter was always like this: cold and precise. But his harshness had some truth to it, even if Creatia wouldn't admit it right away. A quiet reply, "Okay. ...W-will I see you again... Jupiter?"
"Dunno. That's up to you." He uncrossed his arms and turned in a different direction. Giving a nod to Creatia, he made his leave. Now she was alone. This time, she couldn't just call anyone she knew to help her out. What now? Think about it... Hm. ...Well... She absentmindedly scratched at her fluffy ears. They wiggled in response. First thing's first, I need headphones. ...'Concentrate for a while,' right? So, maybe focus?
Taking a deep breath, she took a moment to clear her head and follow the hybrid's advice. An iridescent, rainbow-tinted swirl of light began to float in the air after a moment. It startled Creatia before disappearing from view. "W-what....?" What was that? Is... Is this what he meant? Giving it another try, she stood there and kept her mind silent. The emittance flowed through the winds again, coalescing into countless slim and shimmering threads. Reaching out her hands to greet the strange occurrence, the process started to make some sense. "I see..."
A few more minutes of exploring this new ability, and the strands took their final shape... A round ball. Apparently Creatia forgot to visualize the object she wanted. She blew up her cheeks in the best impression of an angry blowfish. Yet, the orb she was holding did aid her in recalling something vital; something Omni had told her during his short introduction.
'Think of what you desire most...'
"What I desire most...." the mage muttered to herself, thinking of her headset while closing her eyes. She aimlessly rolled the sphere in her palms, mildly intrigued by the feel of the substance against her skin. My headphones... They were part of a three piece communication kit. The other two part were... slim bracers with an LED touchscreen on each band.
The matter began to shimmer and morph against her hands.
Hmm... Holographic capabilities were included in the set, providing its own 'screens.' Access to the internet. Wireless capabilities. Able to act as a wireless phone and translator.
The round object divided into three malleable shapes as she held them in her open palms. They wiggled and shook, stretching to form two featureless, hollowed out cylinders and the makings of a very complex headband.
The set was... How did others describe it? ...Like a wearable smartphone! Yes, that's it. Uhm... Blue earmuffs with a teal trim, and a slim yellow light that glowed whenever it was on. The wristlets each had two yellow buttons and a large blue button... The blue buttons, when pressed, always brought me back to the home screen.... Home. I guess this is my home now...
She opened her eyes and looked down, giving the newly formed items in her hands a long hard stare. They looked just like her old equipment. For the first time in the Omniverse, Creatia broke into a smile. She removed her hat, then she latched the tech underneath her bell sleeves and onto her head. The satisfaction of familiarity washed over her as she pressed one blue button, the devices coming to life instantly.
She felt normal now in her headset and dual-wrist communicator. Well... As normal as one could be when lost in a new world. She sucked in a breath while placing her sunhat over her device. "Okay," she told herself, "You may... you may be alone on the outside, but... but.... yo-you're not alone inside your heart! E-everyone back home knows... knows you're safe somehow... a-and..." She pumped her fist together in shy determination, "Y-you're just gonna have to make... make the best of it!"
With enough resolve regained to explore, she started walking in a random direction. She had no clue where she was going, but anywhere was better than this area of disturbing white.
"W-who knows.... m-maybe you will see him again down the line..." Jupiter was the only person she knew of that had physical strength as a positive. Without his help in this new world, she felt a whole lot weaker. She could only hope they cross paths again. She couldn't do this on her own... No! I... I can do this... I can! It's been done before. I've traveled by myself before! I traveled to find him and other people! I can defend myself just fine! It's just on... an eternal scale now... She held in a tight swallow. She was still a bit scared. Other people were walking around, so she clearly wasn't by herself. She has quite a few chances to find someone who had decent strength to alliance herself with along the way... Or at least make a friend.
The nearest gateway took her a few hours to reach because she traversed in circles while asking passersby many, many questions. She had a basic idea now of what she can and can't do in terms of creating items, but there was always much to learn. Creatia loved learning, so this couldn't be all bad. She steeled herself, then ran through the gates with a bit of a wobbling headstart. She couldn't wait to see what was on the other side.
...Wait! I forgot to make a weapon! ...Well, I'll figure it out when I get a few miles in! Time for a new adventure...
