Chpater twenty four... Last day mission

The group gathered to discuss their achievements,

"Carin did the most so I think she should get the Lion's crystal" Garry said playing with a water all as usual,

"I would have said give it to Chris because he was the weakest but.... Well..." Jason said and there was an awkward silence as they reminisced the day.

After discussing a while they decided to wait till Chris woke up to ask him some questions, Fire actually well suited Chris the most, Carin was an ice user so it just didn't go, same with Garry, as for Jason he rejected because he already had a good weapon, leaving Chris and Tom.

After a while of waiting Chris woke up and said,

"What happened" Chris mumbled only to receive a hug from Carin,

"Where's the camera" Garry said and joined in the hug circle, leaving Jason and Tom to just stare, not knowing what to do,

"ouch" Chris said and stood up looking at all the staring faces, he sighed and sat back down to explain,

"well... I... I..." He stammered but then Jason cut him off,

"Just say it, we already saw it so to me nothing is impossible right now" Jason said taking off his blindfold and blinking a few times before putting it back on,

"I have in me.... A... Phoenix" He said and expected laughter but all he got was more stares, but then he remembered the events that led up to the explanation so he wasn't so surprised.

Chris explained what happened to him from the first day he remembered till date and they just knoded in response,

"Wow, I always thought you were a weak person..." Garry paused receiving a death stare from Chris causing him to giggle,

"Anyway, Team John is close to us, we have a total point of 5700 and they have 5000" Jason explained looking at Chris,

"Will you be able to come with us" Jason asked and Chris was already getting up and putting on his second school shirt since the first one was burnt for obvious reasons,

"Let's go" Chris said and the rest had worried looks on their faces,

"Don't worry, it won't happen again" Chris said also with a worried face,

'I hope not' He thought still feeling a bit of pain in his hand.

They left on a B ranked missions since most of them were too scared to go through that again, except from Garry. The mission was an escort mission, they were to secretly follow a wealthy merchant from another village and bring him in, secretly because the client said he didn't want any body following him. It was going well as they were moving through the trees without making a noise since Garry and Carin were taking turns using their abilities to transport the other,

"uhhhh, this is boring" Garry blurted out and Chris immediately put his hand on Garry's mouth so as to not let the client notice them,but they actually all agreed, Garry brought up a topic to fill the awkward silence,

"So what weapon will you make with that" Garry asked Chris with stars in his eyes.

  Usually it was rare to find a magical beast since it was something of old, but if you manage to find one and survive, they usually have a crystal on one part of their body, which usually served as their source of power,

"I don't know, I was thinking something fist like, like a gauntlet or a Clawed weapon but something is really telling me to make an axe" He said remembering Tyr's memory when he was using an axe,

"Both good choices, I can't wait to see what you pick" Garry said imagining himself with a weapon and while they were distracted Jason spotted something ahead,

"There are five people in the bushes, holding weapons, I'll handle it" He said and jumped down from the floating ice he was on top of, he quickly got to work taking them out silently and getting back on the ice board,

"Done" He said sitting down as they continued their discussion but there was something bugging Chris,

'Tyr has been quiet since, it will take some time' he shrugged and continued to talk to the rest. After what felt like two hours, they were almost at the gate but then twenty men popped out and immediately started to use their abilities attacking the merchant, the group knew they could no longer hide, Carin made and ice wall and Garry also did thesame yet it wasn't enough, the attack was weakened but not stopped as it still went to the merchant. Chris stood in front of the merchant and breathed in,

"Ok" He said putting his hand forward and when the blast was near he moved his hand with unision with the blast and slightly altered its trajectory, missing the man,

"Nice" Chris said proud of himself, he folded his fists,

'Ever since I was forced to try and control that much of Tyr's energy, my control of Ki has gotten better' He thought and ran at the attackers and in less than ten minutes, the twenty men were defeated and in brutal ways while Chris was standing smiling with red eyes which slightly scared the group but then Chris realized,

"did i just..." He asked himself but then shook off the feeling,

"Who the hell are you guys" The merchant shouted with an annoyed tone,

"I told that dumbass I didn't want protection but he still sent you creeps" he cursed and cursed and a small pool of water was seen moving towards the man and Garry had a devilish smile,

"No" Jason said turning around and then turned back to the man

"look sir, this was a mission so there's no reason to..." Jason was interrupted by Chris who was right in the man's face,

"Well, *#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*" Chris was constantly saying things one should say to any old man, or to anybody in general, Garry was smiling enjoying every minute while Jason was just shaking his head. The man just stood there having nothing to say and then Chris walked past and said,

"I'll be waiting close by" He said and walked away leaving the group to deal with the aftermath.
