The Latent Stealth Dog raced wildly through the thick vegetation, ducking to avoid a large root and twisting to go around tree trunks. In short time, it clambered up the cliffs, racing to its cave with a furiously panting heart.
'Yasmin, I still don't understand it. Who are those people? And what can I do to remove the mark imprint on me?' Earlier on, he had felt a tremendous wash of fear and darkness when he entered the forest. Just after when Yasmin informed him he had a fugitive mark in his soul, an imprint of an asterisk etched in his soul space, beside his soul.
Just then, footsteps rapped closer on the rocky plains outside the cave. Panicking he thrust his frame outside in a flight of fight response.
Bayo froze, seeing the lean figures in black gowns staring coldly at him with fang tips protruding from their upper lips.
'W-what?' Bayo stuttered mentally, eyes wide open as he groaned.Not that it was surprising but he hadn't expected the bite to take as much as 50 points of energy from him. His energy had dropped now from 745 to 695.And as it did, the Law of Gluttony rushed in to fill the spot, fueling the Principle of Affection to absorb energy. But unlike before, the energy trickled in units of 5, 7, 3...But it was enough.Little drops of water make a mighty ocean after all.Smiling inwardly, he infused energy into the Tailed heat conducting metal ball of spikes, drilling in 300energy points.It was half of his energy but he
'I do not recommend that! The Law of Love filled your soul to its current capability that your form can handle. Gluttony stretched it further. Using Gluttony once more at this time will only force your soul into expiration. Soul decline!' Yasmin warned.Just then, a heavy weight buckled into his side sending him spinning away. His energy dropped to 20 at the impact."I said, don't kill it. Deola call your wolf back." Tobia ordered as the wolf strolled leisurely to the smacked out body of Bayo that was lying haphazardly against the circular rock."He's knocked out!" The wolf rasped as the Deola moved closer.'Tske... eh... damn l.. you... I'm not.... knocked out yet...' Bayo strained within his mind.His soul had being bulging for the time past now, on the verge Of exploding. Using Gluttony once more would make sure the job was complete but again, his soul was already down t
Terilius And Mackrys, the beastkin investigators stood some few feet away from the Adzes. Terilius with his long mane of hair at his neck and his signature long black coat nodded to his partner, the bear-like humanoid in his signature loose leathery gown.In front of them was the cave, the vampires and their catch, the Latent Stealth Dog whimpering in severe pain, unconsciously.Earlier on, they had followed a lead provided by a certain Vela, on the permission of Lady Grant, who happened to be a wealthy merchant powerhouse in the Coalition.They had questioned it. Infact, his partner had doubly questioned it.What was this Vela's motive?How did she know?What did she really want?A thousand and one questions had being put to him by all who heard of the information provided. Even Lord Bello has asked and ended up seeking a meeting with the Serpentine lady.However, their search was productive. They
"Orb of Occurence?" Terilius gasped."That too, a high grade one at that?" Mackrys questioned as their eyes widened. Quickly, Terilius feet pounded across the land as he raced to Deola with thoughts of disarming them."Stay still... damn you." Deola groaned, Essence bleeding out from her lips.The Orb Of Occurence we're artifacts created by high classes Fate Experts That allowed the user tweak fate to some degree. However, the perk was that Fate rejected any changes to it. To over ride this, one would need induce so much Agbara to combat the resistance of Fate for the changes to be made.Also, if one needed to use Fate to reject a recent Occurence by rewinding time, everything needed to be still around the area of impact. If the slightest thing moved, it made it even difficult and tougher to focus on what needed to be rewound as time passed with each motion.The movement of Terilius was not helping the case."Tas..."
The sky was warm blue with scanty white clouds drifting here and there as they graced the heavens above the Playing Field. The field was mostly empty except for a gardener with his lawnmower trimming the grasses and a big and girl seating on a swing chair that was suspended by a rusty iron rod which in turn was supported by two even rustier vertical iron rods. Behind them was the concrete pavilion that stretched for over a hundred meters sporting visibly damaged books, shirts, pen cases and even shoes which obviously had been dropped by the students in the course of their activities.The boy on the swing had a crew cut on with white vest and Ash colored knickers while the girl wore a plait that was commonly referred to as 'All Back' in the locality. Her gown was a brown slick attire with flare at the end which was complimented by a black fluffy slippers and a black sling bag."Hey, Shade." The boy beamed sheepishly as he held her left hand cupped in his. "I actua
"You see Bayo, there's something you do not quite understand." Yasmin said, moving closer to the mental screen as he studied the stats displayed. The atmosphere hummed lowly of imminent explosion if care was not taken."Damn... you..." Bayo groaned straining under the weight of the restricting cords.He had always known that such a day would come but he didn't think it was soon. After all, his plan from the first day was get strong, strong enough and then, eject the ticking time bomb that was Yasmin.The idea of his soul becoming fuel to half a soul didn't make the cut for him.Alas, he was too late.Or was he?"Hmm... this combinations might be good enough buts still lacking. There are still bloodlines that can be infused into the Wolf." Yasmin said thoughtfully as he stroked his chin."What is it? What is it that I don't understand? How did you even do it? I thought you said you'd be able to take over when my will
Drip...Drip...Drip...Water trickled down into the little pool of water in the bluish and foggy landscape. In it, stood a school boy donning black shoes, blue trousers, white shirt and a blue and white striped tie with a crew cut hairstyle looking in confusion.Just a little ahead of him was a figure, masculine in blue suit, kneeling on one knee.'Don't worry about what happened. Your conscious mind blacked out. This is your unconscious mind that I had been able to wake.' The figure spoke, straining in breath.Every person had a mind that was divided into two. The conscious part did the daily biological machinations and whatnot while the unconscious mind usually came alive to process deeper understanding of what was observed by the conscious mind.For example, one could think about something deeply and end up dreaming about it. In such instances, the unconscious mind is at work and as always, this mind would do only proc
*Gasp!The Spirit Prime Wolf gasped as it's eyelids flung open, blinking as it stared into the brightness about. It lay on the circular patch of rock infront of the rock, abit over sized for the rock while a drakon knelt on one knees looking at him while holding a half of a broken orb in each hand."Heh. Bayo... It worked." Jaspar beamed, happily.Bayo merely squinted, adjusting to the light about. "What worked?""The essence transfer. Took me some huge chunk of energy when I saw you sleeping but yet unstable. Kind of a tussle between your two souls. And hey, how do you always change forms? If I wasn't a nature drakon, I probably won't have been able to find you.""Eh... slows down?" Bayo's croaky voice came again as Jaspar's eyes widened in surprise."Oh My! You can talk, right?" He said, hands flung wide."Of course not! I'm just using sign language." Bayo rolled his eyes although he found the act very painful to make do with.
