Blessing In Disaster

"It's nowhere to be found. Nowhere!"

Alec gritted his teeth. They were far away from where the fight was happening, but they could vividly feel every tremor. Some even caused him to stumble along with the ground.

He could see the giant pillar of brownish light, he could see the giant boulder hanging over the sky and slowly dropping.

All that made him realize that he never would have been able to face that monster. What was it?

The last time he came here, he fought the Phoenix, although it was different from what it was often described to be. Instead of a flaming body, it had azure feathers and was incredibly beautiful but also powerful. Its control of blue flames was amazing.

Its flame was able to burn out the fire cast by magicians. Hell, it was able to burn out even their magic energy and even the hardest metal.

Alec paused to look at his hand, remembering the warm embrace that clasped him when he came in contact with the bird's flame.
