Jade- No, don't cry, you're not stupid... Accidents happen, even if the house fell we are still alive and that's what matters son, nobody has been hurt.

Rucks- …

Zuzuky- It's true, it's not your fault Rucks, I was the one who caused everything.

Jade- …

Rucks- …

Zuzuky- If I hadn't frozen our mother none of this would have happened.

She said sadly: I'm sorry mother, now... With these powers I... I am a threat to you, if I stay I could kill you without even realizing it... I'm sorry.

She turned around to run away into the forest.

Jade- … Wait!

Zuzuky stopped running without turning around.

Jade- I don't want you to go please, even if you did this I will always love you, it doesn't matter if you have that power or how dangerous it is.

Zuzuky- …

Jade- Daughter, please don't go, I love you.

Zuzuky said crying: … Mom.

She went and hugged her, both hugged each other.

Rucks- …

She looked at the forest and said in her mind: What has happened?

Jade- … We must not stay in this place, we must find a shelter to spend the night.

Zuzuky- It is true that dangerous animals lurk at night.

Rucks- And where will we go? There is nowhere to stay and the city is too far to go on foot.

Zuzuky- …

Rucks- Hey, how was it possible that you did not freeze our mother if you hugged her?

Zuzuky- It is true.

She said looking at her hands: … How was it?

Jade- I think you are starting to control them, you have to learn to control that power Zuzuky.

Zuzuky- … Yes, I am glad I am not a threat after all.

Jade- We have to wait until her father returns, I don't plan on leaving without him and my other children.

Zuzuky- I hope he gets to Melanie and Yhoan safely.

Everyone sat on a log to wait.

Jade- …

Rucks- Wait a minute? Were those gusts?

Zuzuky- …?

Rucks- So in that cave… No, it's not fair, she has powers and I don't, it's not fair.

Zuzuky- … Maybe one day you can get powers too?

Jade- If just like she got them, you might get them one day too.

Rucks- Yes, and I'll be like a superhero, I'll be called super Rucks three hundred and twenty and I'll fly and I'll be strong and I'll be made of fire and three times stronger and tougher than a gorilla, twice as good as an eagle and zero disasters.

Jade- Speaking of which, how exactly did you get them? Is there something to do with that bright light we saw at night?

Zuzuky- I guess so, but as soon as the big rock fell on Rucks and crushed him…

Jade- What fell what!?

Zuzuky- Well at first we went to the forest in search of clay and then…

A story told later…

Jade- …

Zuzuky- And well that was what happened.

Jade- Mmm I see, that's why your appearance changed to blue.

She said in her mind: I'm going to eliminate Keichi once…

Zuzuky- But I think I like this power.

Jade- …

Suddenly they heard something approaching from the bushes.

Jade- It must be a Coyote, quickly go after me.

Rucks and Zuzuky stood behind Jade.

Jade was preparing to shoot using her rock thrower aiming at her target.

She had the rock thrower stored on her back just like Keichi did, only under her hair.

Jade- …

But from between the bushes it was Keichi who ran away.

Keichi- Is everyone okay!? I saw the smoke coming from here and got there as soon as I could.

Jade stopped aiming and said: Oh Keichi it's you, what a relief.

Rucks came over saying: Dad where are Yhoan and Melanie?

Keichi- I'm sorry, I couldn't find them.

He looked at the destroyed house and said: But what happened to our house!?

Zuzuky and Rucks felt guilty.

Jade- It was an accident but it's a long story, and now that I remember it...

She came over and slapped him.

Keichi- Ow! And now what?

Jade- Because of you Zuzuky now has those ice powers.

Zuzuky- …

Keichi- Huh?

Rucks- I just wanted to unfreeze my mom because she was frozen by...

Keichi- Frozen? How did she freeze?

Zuzuky- I froze her by accident.

Keichi- What?

Zuzuky- Do you remember when a light was shining and a tremor had appeared?

Keichi- …

Zuzuky- Well I think it was the light we looked at and it had changed color giving me the power to freeze things, I think.

He pointed his hand towards the ground throwing a blast leaving a mound of ice on the ground, Keichi was impressed.

Zuzuky- Yes, I know how to throw ice.

Jade slapped Keichi again.

Keichi- … That, that explains the situation.

She tried not to cry by covering herself.

A Coyote howl could be heard in the distance.

Keichi- … Let's look for a shelter before it gets dark.

Jade- … Okay.

Keichi- Let's see if there is something that will help us on the way.

The family was looking in the remains of the house for something that would help them on the trip, but everything had ended up destroyed by fire and ice.

There was a lot of ice between the destroyed wood.

From a destroyed wall column he found a piece of ice hanging and it fell on Zuzuky's head, destroying her completely.

Zuzuky- Again?

Keichi- (Sigh) It seems that we will have to continue without any help objects.

Jade wanted to give her a third slap, but Keichi was crouching down, covering himself while he escaped from her.

Zuzuky- ... I have an idea! Why don't we use my ice power to cross the dangers in the forest?

Jade- Huh?

Keichi- It's not a bad idea, but aren't you forgetting something?

Jade- Yhoan and Melanie are missing.

Keichi- Fine, then let's go for them first.

Zuzuky- Yes.

A third slap was given to Keichi.

Everyone went in search of Yhoan and Melanie heading to the protected area of ​​the forest where hunters were forbidden to hunt, dusk was about to begin, everything looked calm.

Jade- (Anger look at Keichi).

Keichi stood behind Zuzuky avoiding Jade.

Rucks- Where do you think Yhoan and Melanie have gone?

Keichi- I don't know? The last time I saw them we were looking for you and... Then I went to look for you... From then on I didn't know anything more about Yhoan and Melanie.

Jade- ...

Keichi- ... If I were Yhoan where would I go?

Zuzuky- Maybe? I think I know where he might be.

Rucks- Where?

Zuzuky- He must have gone in the direction of the sliding rock that is near our home, he would look for a shelter in a safe place.

Keichi stopped saying: I heard a long time ago an argument between him and Rucks saying that one day he would leave that place if something bad happened, but did I understand something like that?

Rucks- And Melanie would try to stop him until she found him?

Jade- That's it, we're going the wrong way, we have to go back and go to the city.

Rucks- What? Are we really going to go to that place?

Jade- What's so bad about it?

Rucks- It's just that I don't like traveling on foot.

Zuzuky- Come on Rucks.

Rucks- Well, okay.

When they returned to the Great Hill...

It was already dusk, in the destroyed house they met the coyotes.

Coyote- Grrr.

Keichi- ...

The Coyotes looked at the family getting into an attack position, Rucks was scared but Keichi prepared himself using his wooden spear.

Keichi- Back, I'll take care of these coyotes.

Zuzuky- But there are many of them.

Keichi- I've already faced more dangerous animals than these.

Jade- Excuse me? I've been by your side on hunts too.

He held his rock thrower along with a couple of rocks.

Keichi- Are you really going to use that?

Jade- Believe it or not, my rock thrower shoots hard.

Keichi- It's more like a wooden toy and it's already very worn out, don't you think?

Zuzuky- Hey, I can...

Jade- Zuzuky, we'll take care of this.

Coyote Leader- Hold your positions!

Zuzuky said in his mind: Wait? Did the coyote just speak?

The others didn't care except for Zuzuky.

The Coyotes surrounded Jade and Keichi while growling and barking, Zuzuky and Rucks hid behind the trees.

Zuzuky- What's going on here?

Jade and Keichi were surrounded by a pack of aggressive coyotes, Rucks climbed a tree taking shelter and Zuzuky remained in a bush.

Jade and Keichi had their hunting weapons to defend themselves.

Coyote Leader- Attack!

The Coyotes attacked immediately.

Keichi- …

He quickly prepared to defend himself.

But the battle had been interrupted by a tremor, the coyotes had stopped as well as the family.

Jade- What's going on?

Keichi- …

Looking at the distant city, a large light in the form of a green pillar had appeared in the distance.

Zuzuky- Wow.

Rucks- Another light?

Coyote Leader- No, not again.

Moments later a large explosion of green light had expanded directly towards them with great power.

All the coyotes had fled at full speed while Jade, Rucks, Zuzuky and Keichi closed their eyes.

When the lighting and the shaking ended, Jade, Keichi, Zuzuky and Rucks saw that there was no longer a single coyote around them and the light had not affected anything, not even the disturbed birds or any insects.

Zuzuky- …

The city had not been affected either.

Jade- Was it like last night?

Keichi- … Only this time it exploded?

Rucks- …

When Keichi calmed down completely, he recognized that something was happening.

They looked at where it had happened.

Jade- Doesn't the road lead to the city over there?

Keichi put away his wooden spear, piercing it through his shirt on his back and said: What if it was Melanie and Yhoan?

Rucks- So they went to the city?

Keichi- I'm afraid so, there are surely more areas in this place that activate those lights and tremors.

Jade, Zuzuky and Rucks were upset.

Zuzuky- We must find them.

Jade- Keichi they must surely be in danger after that explosion.

Keichi- Then there is no time to lose, let's go we must find them and leave this place.

Jade slapped Keichi.

Keichi- (Avoiding crying).

On the way Rucks said: What were those lights?

Keichi- I don't know? But we must not stay to find out, come on, Melanie and Yhoan must be worried.

Zuzuky- …

Rucks- Do you think that light has also given them powers?

Jade- Is it likely? But it is not normal for things like that to happen.

Keichi- Also, I don't think they are that far away?

Zuzuky- Hey, by any chance is it normal to understand animal language perfectly? Is it just that I heard the coyotes talking?

Keichi- Really? Now you talk to animals? What madness?

Jade- Don't worry Zuzuky. It's surely another power that you have obtained.

I look at Keichi angrily, Keichi moved away like a crab, keeping his distance.

Rucks- I also want to get powers.

Jade- Don't even dream about it.

Keichi- The rock is around here, come on.

He went ahead to see if the path was safe, although he only wanted to keep his distance from Jade. Keichi- … It's safe.

Jade- Okay, let's go kids.

Zuzuky- …

The family headed to the slippery rock, upon reaching the shore, Keichi said: Be careful, even a goat could slip down this area.

Zuzuky- It would be fun to see that.

Rucks- Sure, as long as it doesn't fracture.

Zuzuky- Em, that's not what I meant.

Keichi carefully went down, sliding a little.

Keichi- … Fine, just don't step on slippery areas.

Zuzuky- I think…

Upon taking the third step, he slipped and rolled until he reached the bottom.

Jade- Zuzuky!

Zuzuky- Ouch.

Keichi- Oh, that'll leave you with bruises.

He looked at Jade and she looked at him with contempt, like the eyes of a furious tiger.

Keichi said almost crying with fear: Why does nothing go right for me?

Rucks ended up falling down the same path, ending up on top of Zuzuky suddenly.

Zuzuky- Ow!

Rucks said upset: No! Sorry, it was unintentional!

Keichi- (Pale Expression ).

He turned around and to his surprise Jade was in front of him.

Keichi- ...!

Jade- So you're pretty sure, huh?

Keichi- I, um... This I...

Jade touched Keichi's nose, Keichi lost his balance and slipped, falling and rolling all over the road.

Zuzuky- I forgive you, now would you be kind enough to get off me!

Rucks- Yes.

Rucks immediately got down but instead, Keichi ended up falling on top of Zuzuky, crushing her.

Zuzuky- Waaaaaa!

Rucks- He crushed her!

Keichi panicked and immediately stood up, lifting Zuzuky to her feet, saying: Daughter! ...

Zuzuky- (Stunned).

Keichi froze in fear and looked behind him, where Jade was; This time with her dark gaze emanating an energy of anger.

Keichi- (Nightmare Expression).

Zuzuky- Au, I think I feel fine now, ah, have I regenerated?

The Power Cells had healed her from her physical injuries.

But suddenly, beatings, blows, and screams could be heard; The screams were Keichi's.

Zuzuky and Rucks covered their eyes in fear.

After a minute, they looked again and Keichi was left as if a herd of elephants had completely crushed him.

Zuzuky- …

Rucks- …

Jade shook her hands and said: Ugh, it's getting late, get up and let's go.

They continued on their way.

Rucks bent down and touched Keichi with his finger four times.

Rucks- … Wow, he even looks like a lifeless animal.

Jade- Keichi!

Keichi opened his eyes in fear, stood up immediately and said: I'm coming, dear.

Rucks- … Lesson learned, never make mom angry.

Later after a tour…

They saw that they were near the city.

Jade- Do you think that Yhoan and Melanie are around here?

Zuzuky- It's possible, a long time ago I heard Yhoan say that he would like to live in that city someday.

Keichi- Wow, I've never seen it so close. What do you think it's like inside?

He shook off the dirt on top of himself.

Jade- Let's find out.

At dusk, after a long journey along the edge of the forest, they had finally managed to arrive in: Traffic City.

Rucks- …

There were too many vehicles and a lot of traffic everywhere, people were walking tightly in the streets due to the number of inhabitants.

It was very easy to get lost in the city and there were Drones that delivered food to homes.

Keichi- … Okay? Let's continue.

Zuzuky and her family were impressed to see so many people, they entered through the sidewalk moving quickly because people had to walk fast in that area.

Jade- Hey, there are too many of them.

Some people said that these were strays.

Others said that they were begging and others told them that they stank horribly.

Person 1- Wow, a poor family hehe, they should go to the poor people's circus.

Keichi immediately became upset, saying: I may be poor, but you don't have Jesus in your heart, because I have a family and they will always be by my side.

But when he looked around, he couldn't find his family.

Keichi- …

To be continued…
