Leaving the house Ren stood and people crowded her asking questions and she stood not really knowing anything about the human world. Ren looked at me confused I came over and looked at these people. I looked over them “What are you dude?” I patted my chest “I am Malcolm a dual element Elf fire and ice. This is a healing fairy Ren we are here to make peace with human kind despite the mass number of our people they have locked away and killed. Humans and Magics can live together.” I formed ice in one hand and fire in the other and watched as a kid took out his phone. I repeated myself for the cameras and did a bit of a show and he asked me a few questions and I answered them the best I could. The kid looked at me and something off his bike and handed it to me. It was a helmet with a gopro camera on it strapping on the helmet I used flames to form wings looking to Ren we took off in the sky. “What did you just do?” I looked at her “Started a long path to make peace.” Flying through the air I could hardly think about anything but the fight. And when we got to the hill I landed and looked over to the base feeling my heart beat as I looked to the huge building. “Summon me,” The echoing voice of the spirit bounced around my head as I looked to Ren “This isn’t smart, if you try to do this I am sorry but am going to get the others.” The wolf spirit and Ren talking at the same time drove me nuts I screamed and grabbed my head. I summoned the wolf spirit and let Ren fly away. I watched as he charged the base blowing stuff, men poured from the base and gunfire roared out. I dashed around to the other side, I watched for a clear opening and dashed in, I watched as a white cloud floated down the hall, that was the wolf spirit cleaning the possessed. I went into the first room and pulled on the door it was locked pulling out my swords I sliced the door and walked through. Sheathing my swords I looked to the kids who trembled in fear the oldest ran out and stood in front of the kids tears streaming down his face as he shook. “I am here to help.” I pulled him to me and cut off the collar and watched as it fell to the ground I cut off the collars of each kid and they thanked me. “Wolf spirit I need a portal.” I said looking to the wall moments passed a black hole appeared I watched as a gatekeeper poked his head through then gestured for them to come. I watched as the kids got in, I fled to the next room beating down the doors,cutting off collars and here and there having to freeze some guards. Time seemed to pass quickly and then I came across a huge guy that had a bunch of stuff in his room. Eating chips he looked at me “So you must be the dual elements I hear so much about so what ya gonna do Freeze me or burn me?” I looked down on him, his room was completely different and then I saw wings from his back he had earned his wings. They were black with strips of different neon colors yawning I saw a neon slurred glow his eyes were splashes of colors. “So you are the dragon that earned their wings” He nodded and I looked to see his collar was different it was white and had a green blinking dot. “I have all the freedom I could wish for.” He said popping a chip in his mouth, “I even get to go outside for a few minutes,” he stood “So why are you here? I hope you have come to repent for your dark ways” I looked him up and down and tried to relax. “How would you like to go outside whenever you want?” He chuckled “I don’t think you understand what we are… We eat humans and destroy them they are lucky to let us live and even see the sun, humans have saved us from other humans and have saved us from our horrible ways.” I looked at him and felt my heart sink “How long have you been here?” He smiled “I am lucky to have been born here my mother died not long after giving birth to me and instead of throwing me away the humans saved me and taught me right from wrong.” I reached out to him and touched his arm feeling the wolf spirit energy go through my fingertips and to this man. I felt it disappear “He is lost…” the echoing voice of the wolf spirit ran around in my head. “You have come here to attack us and try to return us to our old ways.” He charged me and wrapped his hand around my throat and threw me into the wall losing my breath I coughed and he towered over me. “I have to make sure you don’t try to spread your darkness.” Picking me up he threw me again and I coughed up blood and I gasped for air. He came toward me again and picked me up choking me I formed ice in my hand and watched as it charged him hitting his shoulder he looked it and chuckled as the wound dripped blood then healed. Throwing me again I slowly brought my knees in and managed to stand as I coughed up blood and set him a flame, walking through it he chuckled as he grabbed me again. Ice spikes formed in my hands and charged him and I watched as he kept walking into them “You will never be able to spread your darkness again.” I felt my stomach hit the floor as his laughter rang out as he grabbed my throat. Tears formed in my eyes as I touched his arm pushing the wolf spirit’s energy through him hoping to wake up something inside of him. It didn’t work and he threw me down again, “I rather not drag this out so if you would please repent from your dark ways I could see what the humans could do to save you.” I looked at him and he charged me again I closed my eyes and tears formed in my eyes as he threw me again. I couldn’t sand and I tied to freeze him his body gave off flames and I watched as the ice melted. He stood over me and I couldn’t move one of my arms, he hunched over I pulled one of swords out and charged him, blood splattered on me. And he pulled the blade from his chest and threw it down like it was a toothpick. “Cut off his head.” the echoing voice of the words of the wolf sunk into my stomach as it dropped far further than I ever thought was even possible. I drew my other sword as used ice to push me around charging him holding my sword as one arm dangled lifelessly. It hit his throat and started to heal I drove my blade further and watched as his head flung off and rolled as his body fell his head rolled and his open eyes looked at me and I crumbled to the floor covered in his blood I just sat there looking into his eyes. I felt the noise fade I watched as a portal opened and Mayaken looked down on me and Jonas fell he tripped on the portal. Looking at me he came to my side and covered my view of the man I had killed. “Look at me…” I looked at him and cried he wrapped his arms around me and we went through the portal. Looking around I was at my house Jonas took off the helmet and set it down. Everyone stared at me and I cried my dad looked down, everyone moved away as Jonas walked me up the stairs as I cried stripping me down to my underwear he put me in the shower. Cleaning my wounds and washing the blood from my hair and Mayaken stood looking down on me with eyes filled with sorrow. I just became numb as Jonas washed the blood off me and got me dressed, walking me down the stira everyone looked at me with fear and worried filled eyes. Ren came over to me “Let me heal you.” She held her hand over my wounds and her hands glowed. Sparkles looked down on me “you froze us and come back covered in blood what did you do?” I slowly turned to her “the wolf spirit told me to freeze you to save your lives.” Then she gestured to me “So then whose blood were you covered in?” I looked down and looked at my hands Jonas glared Sparkles down, “He did what you had to do to live. It was a battle, You knew the battle was coming what did you think was gonna happen... And going out alone… Please don’t do that again.” I looked at him“ Where is Roger?” Jonas sighed “Am I not enough?” He said walking away upset turning back to me he looked at me “Jonas are you being serious right now?” Jonas looked down “I am sorry.” Jonas walked up the stairs and I looked to the others “We don’t know…” I felt my stomach sink, I looked to Ren “I told him what you were doing and he stormed out.” I sighed and Ren grabbed my arm and I turned to her and she blew something on me, I felt my body go weak as my knees caved. “You should rest.” I looked into her eyes and felt everything sink away looking around I was with the wolf spirit. “What the hell happened?” I said looked around the wolf turned and came toward me “I am quite stunned I thought you finished.” He chuckled “You can destroy a base filled with humans yet a healing fairy knocks you out?” I scoffed and sat down trying to go back to the world. “You can’t go back until the magic wears off, you should train.” I watched as a tree formed in front of me, a cool breeze blew the leaves and branches. I climbed it and stood on one of limbs slowly bringing up one of my legs I followed the movements my mother did when she used to train. Pulling my swords I swung them and quickly lost balance and fell from the tree. I trained for what seemed like years being training physically and mentally putting me through tests of war and even normal subjects like math I was blown away by his knowledge he had. Each time I asked about his life before being a spirit he would dismiss me and tell me I wasn’t ready. Each day hours of training the body then the art of war and then school subjects. As the years passed I became smarter than I thought was possible and my body became strong and quite sexy. I began to notice how long my hair was getting, touching my shoulders then touching my mid back its pitch black with burning edges running up my hair made me sick to my stomach thinking about how much time had passed in the real world. My cloak became burned at the edges and its colors were a little faded. I handed him my math work and he picked up his cup and sipped it as he scanned over the work he sighed as he set down his cup and the papers “Geist.” I looked at him confused he had taught me a few languages and would randomly saw words in other languages but we were doing math “Is that german?” I said as I sipped on the drink he nodded “It’s my name.” I nearly choked on the tea “Why didn’t you tell me that earlier?!” He looked down “Because spirits aren’t supposed to tell their names until their pupil has reached their full potential.” I looked at him then myself “How long have I spent in here?” I said looking to the table it’s edges worn from the water it always sat in. “I am not sure… Maybe 15 years maybe 20?” I looked at him and set down my cup “How much time has passed in the real world?” I clenched my fist in fear of the time he would tell me. “Hard to say.” I took a sigh of relief and he chuckled “So did you have a life or were you always a spirit?” He paused and stood walking toward a door. “Yes I did I was smart and did my studies and on my off time my life was filled with killing and despair until I was saved by an Elf and they forced me to serve as a spirit for entrity. And I slowly learned from my ways.” I nodded and he gestured to the door, “I thought your mother might wanna see how you are doing.” I walked toward the door and watched as it slowly opened I looked to see the field of flowers she turned and I picked a flower and slowly walked to her. She chuckled and hugged me “My goodness look at you all big and strong.” I was now a bit taller than my mom, “yeah it’s been a while mommy.”I felt tears form as I put the flower behind her ear, holding back my tears I smiled “You look good baby.” She said as tears streamed down her face “So have you found the love of your life?” I shrugged “I am not sure yet but two guys like me.” She looked at me “Your Son saved hundreds of lives recently.” Geist said as he looked to my mother, “Oh really?” I nodded and gestured to Geist “He helped too. He kept the guards away while I saved magic beings they were locked away in cages and thanks to him I only had to… fight one dragon” My mom looked at me confused “Who did you have to save them from?” I rubbed my neck and explained the condition they were in before telling her who had done it. “Who did all those horrible things?” I looked to Geist and I sighed then looked back to my mother “from humans…” My mom touched my face “humans… So you had to hurt humans?” I nodded and she hugged me “You must not go back to the magic realm you need to flee right away. Wake up and go.” I touched my mom’s face as she tried to push me away “Mom mom calm down okay…” She looked at me “You have to live do whatever you can to live please…” I touched my mother’s face “let’s not worry about that right now okay. I want to tell you about my life and the people I have met.” I told mom the tales and stories I had the names of my friends and the names of the guys that liked me. “So from what I hear you like them both… And they both like you? Why not date them both?” I chuckled and she patted my leg “I am serious I dated two men before it was quite tiring and I didn’t get much sleep.” I chuckled “Mom I didn’t need to know that.” She laughed “Mom what were your parents like?” She sighed “They tried to help me hide my belly but soon too many of the staff at the royal house knew and the magic order showed up. But before that they were always training me to become the Queen of the house until I turned 16 and had the choice of if I wanted to take it or not. I told my family yes I wanted to take on the name of our household and I took it not long later I met your father it was love at first sight I told my mother crying hating me the fact I had taken the crown. Time passed and you started growing it was scary and exciting all at the same time. I don’t regret it, not one bit you opened my eyes and now there is so much more to me.” She gently touched my face and Geist touched my shoulder “The magic is wearing off it’s time to go.” I looked at him and silently nodded looking to my mom I gave her a hug, “I will come visit you okay.” She smiled “Okay honey,” Tears streamed down her face and I gently wiped them away and she held my hand “Please live. And tell your father to move on to live and to stop working so much and just find a good place” She touched my stone and looked at me I nodded and walked back to the door. Shutting the door I watched as my mother turned back to the flowers, clenching my fist hating the fact things had to be this way. Hating the fact I had to close the door on my mother and all she had to do was a field of flowers to pick “Thank you… Is there any way you could change up her world different area or something?” I said looking to Geist, he nodded “I will send her to the beach and to the streets of distant countries.” I nodded and felt myself sink, “hopefully your body doesn’t reject you.” Jumping up I looked around to my room looking to my hands they were normal I stood and I wasn’t the skinny half dead kid I once was. I had my cloak the ends burned, the colors faded and my long burning ponytail. “Geist something is wrong. Geist?” There was no answer without a doubt something was wrong.
