The Beginning Pt.2

The Beginning Pt.2

Sep 20, 2019

[Sho eyes quickly darts downward. Icarus appearing right in front of him. Icarus fist on fire goes to uppercut Sho. Aye big smile is across Icarus’s face. Icarus fist moves closer towards hitting Sho then suddenly Icarus’s fist connects with a bark of wood. The wood suddenly sprouted from the bottom of Sho and came up to protect his chin.]

Icarus:Huh!

BBBBBBBBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!!!!

[A large sound comes from the clashing of the fire and wood. The hit bounces the two back a couple of feet.]

Sho: Hm! Didn't expect you to pull out your Affinity.

Affinity is the power that someone possesses.

[Sho retracts the wood back in to his feet.]

Bloom - Sho can conjure wood from his body.

Icarus: See i'm ready to go! Inferno Fury!

[Icarus explodes his Kiyo out of his body. The aura coming out turns into fire and now it’s a wave of fire surrounding Icarus.]

Inferno Fury allows Icarus to summon fire from any part of his body and allows him to throw the fire as projectiles.

Sho: Bloom!

[Sho conjures his wood from the bottom of his feet and they go over towards Icarus. Sho wraps Icarus up in the wood to put out his fire. Then opens up the wood and releases Icarus.]

Icarus: You didn’t have to do that. You could have just told me to stop.

Sho: You shouldn't have done it in the first place. Now that we're done come inside.

[The two of them walk inside the house. Sho walks into the pantry while Icarus sits at the dinner table. Sho pops open a piece of the wall inside the pantry. Inside of the wall is a blue backpack. Sho grabs the backpack and walks back to the dinner table. He throws the backpack onto the dinner table.]

Icarus: What's this?!

Sho: This is a backpack with something you might need. There's 10000 Rendo in here that should be enough for you to get around with money. There are a bunch of snacks for you eat, a sleeping bag…

Icarus: Sleeping bag?!

Sho: What?! You never know what might happen. I was able to get my hands on an adventurer brochure.

[Icarus slams his hands down on the table with excitement.]

Icarus: Adventurer Brochure!

Sho: Stop slamming on the table. This is brochure is only for the Mizu badge. I couldn't get my hands on the overs but at least you will have one.

Icarus:SO COOL!!!

Sho: Now with the Mizu badge you have to be ready and strong enough because getting this badge is not easy; it's even harder because it is your opposite element.

Icarus: I GOT THIS IT WILL BE EASY!!

Sho: Icarus I don't think you understand. The Mizu badge temple is in the middle of Lake Selfoss. But the temple is 30,000 feet below surface level.

Icarus: 30,000!!!

Sho: First you will have to swim 1000 feet below surface level then you will hit a big block of ice because the floor of the lake is completely frozen and that ice is 10,000 feet thick. Once you get through that you will come to a giant chasm that has a giant waterfall that stretches 10,000 feet deep. Once you reach the bottom of that waterfall there will be another lake with the temple in side of it.

Icarus:WOW! SOUNDS EASY!

Sho: But wait i'm not done inside of this lake there are two giant man eating koi fish that protects the temple.

Icarus: Ok!

[Sho jaw drops.]

Sho: WHAT! You not surprised!

Icarus:Why would I be surprised?!

Sho:That doesn’t sound difficult.

Icarus:No! If it was anything less than that I would have been underwhelmed and disappointed.

[Icarus slams his foot on top of the table and points to the sky.]

Icarus:THESE ARE ADVENTURER BADGES!! ONLY THE STRONG CAN TRAVERSE!!!

[Sho grows angry. He kicks Icarus in the chest sending him flying into the wall.]

Sho:WHAT DID I SAY ABOUT YOUR FEET ON MY TABLE!!!

Icarus: Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!

[Icarus gets up scratching his head. Sho throws the backpack Icarus]

Sho: Catch!

[Icarus catches the backpack.]

Sho: Alright Icarus let's go get the boat.

Icarus:Yup!

[Sho and Icarus walk outside of the house. The walk through the dense forest that is behind their home. The further they walk in the less light they are able to see. But as they traverse through another light begins to appear in front of them. The exit the forest. Both of them stare out onto the vast beautiful ocean where the water is sparkling and glisilying from the rays of the sun beaming off its surface. Sho walks off to the side. A small wooden boat sits under the dark gray cloth covering it. Sho grabs and throws the cloth covering the boat off the side.]

Sho: Here Icarus! You finally get to follow your dream!

[Icarus eyes glisten from excitement. The both of them push the boat onto the ocean. Sho holds the boat steady so that it doesn't drift into the ocean. Icarus hops into the boat.]

Icarus: I’m stable Sho.

Sho: I guess this is goodbye.

[Sho lets go of the boat. Icarus and the boat begin to slowly drift away.]

Sho: Icarus! Remember to be careful using Kiyo and you Affinity!

Icarus:Right!

Sho: Even if the law isn’t enforced thoroughly it is still illegal to use Kiyo so stay out of trouble!

[Icarus nods his head in agreement.]

Icarus: I will don’t you worry!

[Icarus waves his hand goodbye. Sho raise his hand and waved goodbye. Sho watches Icarus float away in the boat. The further Icarus floats away the less they can see each other. Tears began to run down Sho’s face. Sho slams both of his hands together in prayer form.]

Sho: I pray he never has to use that power.
