438. AURA

"What the fu- You shouldn't be awake!" Dan exclaimed jumping backward. His aura almost flared, but he managed to keep it under his control.

"Why did you think I would not be awake?" Elder Sarah asked now staring at her palms. Incredible energy coursed through the very fabric of her flesh.

"Uh… according to my calculations you shouldn't. Most individuals sleep for years," Anna explained coming forward.

"I see…" Elder Sarah clenched and unclenched her palms as if to get used to them.

"How do you feel?" Anna asked after exchanging uncertain glances with Dan and Von.

"I feel… amazing," Elder Sarah replied, raising her head to gaze at her friend. "I feel like I can squash this entire city if I wanted," she added.

"Please don't," Elder Von commented, rubbing his temples.

"I'll try," Elder Sarah replied with genuine honesty, but her words put more worry in the minds of the experts.
