Temptations

My hands spread wide, exposing an excruciating throw of power. A blast followed up. The ground shook, the birds escaped from their nest, flapping their wings for safety and squirrels looked desperately for refuge. My body felt weak after doing this. I could see the trees nodding inside out. I touched my face, struggling to keep my eyes open.

Cathy rushed to me, calling a magical circle around us. My eyes grew dim, returning back to normal. She supported me, clinging to my hand.

I drifted off to sleep in her arms as Max dashed to us. "Her powers are developed now...this happened to me a year ago. But it wasn't yet time. Due to the pressure from her problems. If I hadn't stopped her, she would've disappeared to get rid of the root of the problem..Ian of course".
