I walked over to Magda, stretching out my hand to her.The blood retracted from where it had pierced her, the fire burning off when it floated back into my body.I kneeled down beside her and placed both of my hands on either side of her face.A warm blue glow emanated from beneath my wrist.Her eyes went wide open as she coughed, jerking up.Her eyes never left me for once as she stared at me in disbelief.Micah joined her soon.Neither of them said anything as they only stared at me."How did you do that?" Micah asked.She seemed surprised but at the same time, not surprised.It was like she knew of the ability."Your prototype gives you blood bending abilities." She said in almost a whisper.So she does know of the ability?"How do you know about it?" I asked her.He had said that I was the first Special to ever have such abilities."In my clan in Tokyo, there are myths about heroes of the future. Even as a kid, I was always told of the myths of humans who possessed abilities that
Writer's POVMicah and Magda just walked in silence as they left the young Ash behind."Do you believe me now?" Micah asked Magda triumphantly.She had finally proven to her that the young Ash was going to be their hero at the end of the day."Hopefully, Ivan doesn't kill him before he saves us all from what's coming." Magda answered."His prototype worries me, Micah. He comes at unexpected times." Magda expressed her worry."He's gained control over it." "We can't be so sure, Micah. What if it fails him during his fight with Ivan? Nobody knows what the bastard is planning. I do not wish to risk Kastian getting hurt." Magda panicked.Micah reasoned with her before an amused smile spread across her lips."I only care for him as a hero would care for a friend." Magda defended herself before Micah teased her."Let's just pretend that's the situation. Just so you know, we are going to talk about your sudden overprotective care over Kastian.""We are not talking about anything, Magda. I o
Writer's POVThe B-grade team prepared as the day of their mission had finally come.Magda, as team leader, gave out instructions to her team."So what's the plan, leader?" The B-grade portal user asked Magda after she had gone over the threat of the mission.They were going to the planet closest to Earth.The psychic users of the academy had detected an energy quite similar to a deadly energy they had detected in Earth on the last mission.The Principal thought that it wasn't a coincidence and this energy might lead them to whatever was taking Specials from Earth.The academy had never had any reason to go to planet Trion.They only ever went on missions to places that might pose a threat to ordinary humans.This was the first time Trion was ever posing as a threat to Earth."We don't know for sure what exactly is emitting that energy in Trion. The fact that the psychic users had felt that same energy from Earth meant the owner of that energy could travel between Trion and Earth as h
Writer's POVOn the other side of the portal was Trion; a planet with nothing but rocks and hills.Josiah quickly caught Anna before she fell on one of the rocks."Thank you." She blushed, looking away shyly when he released her."Let's focus on the mission, guys." Magda moved in front of her team, scanning the area before giving her commands.When she concluded that there was no danger in sight, she put her hand up and gestured with her fingers for them to move forward."Now, Anna." She said to the psychic user on the team.The tall Lady nodded before closing her eyes.With her mind, she tried to search for the energy the other psychic users had spoken of."Dark and cold, so empty, it could leave your mind hollow." That was how they had described it.Anna searched but she couldn't detect anything dark, cold nor both.As a matter of fact, she couldn't detect any mind energy at all.It was as though the team were the only living on the planet."What did you find?" Magda asked Anna."Th
Kastian's POVI had spent the rest of the day carrying out my exercise routine and training with Landon.I had looked forward to today ever since I knew Aki had fire abilities too.I didn't wait for Micah to call on me, I headed straight to the last place Magda had trained me yesterday.I waited and hoped that he didn't have any class nor mission scheduled for today.When I saw someone walking in, I rose up from the ground at once.My shoulders fell in disappointment when I saw that it was only Micah."Disappointed, Kastian? You look that way to me." I saw the smile on her face when she came closer.The screen suddenly appeared, Thirteen days left until fight with Special Ivan.I had only thirteen days more until it was determined whether I remained in the academy and went on missions or not."I wasn't expecting you today." I admitted and she nodded in understanding."Aki will be here soon. Piece of advice, try not to piss him off. He's not entirely pleased with being here." S
Writer's POV"Let him go." Magda seethed, watching as Zenin had his hand wrapped around Harry's neck"I'll let him go in exchange for you." Zenin smiled.He took his hand away from Harry's neck but the Special still remained in the air while Zenin's grip remained on his neck.He was not longer holding him but Harry never stopped choking.He glanced at Magda from where he was, muttering inaudible words."Sacrifices. That's what you Specials claim do, isn't it? If you're such a hero, you're going to have to give yourself in exchange to make sure he returns to the academy safe." He folded his arms under his chest and waited for Magda to make her choice."Don't do this, Magda." Harry said in a choked breath.He shook his head rigorously, already knowing what Magda's decision was going to be.She would do absolutely anything to make sure her team remained safe even if it meant sacrificing herself.And that was one thing Harry was going to make sure she didn't do."Why do you want me in exc
Kastian's POVThe healers came in and took Aki away.Micah and I went to the healing facility and waited there for Aki to be healed.How had he known Magda was in danger?How had Magda being in danger even affected him?"He's going to be alright, isn't he?" I asked Micah as I stared into thin air.My hands grew cold on my legs.I had never seen so much blood in my life before, especially when there was no physical weapon inflicting the injuries on Aki."He's a fighter, he'll survive. It's not the first time he's experiencing such." Micah answered.Even though she tried hard to conceal her fear, I could still clearly hear it in her voice.If Micah was so scared of what had happened to Aki then this was the first time something of such a great deal had happened to Aki."What was that?" I finally asked, turning to look at her.Her skin was pale in fear and I didn't fail to notice her shaky hands."Sibling bond." She answered.Sibling bond….. What on Earth was that?"Aki and Magda share a
I stared at the screen without blinking.The tab didn't disappear.How was I supposed to even remove the bond?The only reason I was able to grow this strong was because Magda had offered to train me.Now, I had the chance to save her brother but I didn't even know how.After much contemplation, I got out of the bed and headed over to the healing facility.When I got there, Micah was nowhere to be found.The healers were beginning to have a hard time healing Aki and keeping him alive.The only thing they could do was heal him anyway, if he died there was absolutely nothing they could do.I waited for a while hoping that Micah would return to the healing facility but she didn't.I went searching for her in the two places that Magda had trained me but she was not there.I thought of the Principal's office but then, I couldn't risk going there and have him find out what Magda and Micah have been doing all along.It was far roo risky to let that happen especially with my fight with Ivan c
