AWAKENING - the adventure

Chapter 24: Prodigies and Monsters



Emilia: "So, the main family are the heads of the Mitsunaga family"

She says, walking out of the spa in a white bathrobe with the Mitsunaga emblem engraved on its back,

Hinata: "Yes exactly"

Hinata also walks out in a similar bathrobe,

Emilia: "Sounds more like a clan than a family"

Hinata: "The Mitsunaga family were once considered a clan, but because many of them

died in the war, only two branches were left"

Emilia: "Mrs. Mitsunaga's husbands family line and your family line"

Hinata: "You understood, good job"

They both laugh together,

Emilia: "So, what are we going to do now"

Hinata: "Let us grab something to drink and rest on a lounger"

Emilia: "You know, I really start to like you Hinata"

Ichiro: "Your first lesson will be theory"

Lenny and Ichiro are outside. Lenny wanted to get stronger so he asked Ichiro if he could train him.

Lenny: "I know what soul-energy is"

Ichiro: "Okay good, make an aura then"

Lenny: "That's why I asked you for help"

Ichiro shakes his head. He wrappes his hand in a yellow aura,

Ichiro: "This is soul-aura, if you can't do this, we don't need to start your training"

Lenny: "I can't, teach me how to do this"

Ichiro: "Close your eyes"

Lenny closes his eyes, waiting for the next step,

Ichiro: "Try to feel the energy inside of you, it should feel warm"

Lenny focuses, feeling a warm energy from his core

Lenny: "I-I can feel it"

Ichiro: "Now try to pull it out"

Lenny stays focused, trying to pull out the warm energy from his core,

Lenny grunts, even starting to sweat, before loosing focus,

Lenny: "Shit! I was so close"

Ichiro: "Every beginning is hard, keep up the work"

Lenny: "Let me try again"

Ichiro: "No, you will do 100 push-ups as a penalty"

Lenny is shocked

Lenny: "WHAT? 100 PUSHUPS?"

Ichiro: "You want to get stronger or not?"

Lenny thinks. He made up his mind, falling to the ground and starting doing his penalty push-ups.

Henry: "So they have a training area, cool"

Henry and Jack are in a room full of wooden training dolls, wooden weapons and a

sparring ring.

Jack: "I thought Mrs. Mitsunaga has only daughters, who trains here?"

Henry: "Maybe that monster in form of a human"

Jack: "Who?"

Henry: "Some guy that Ichiro warned me about, he is a Mitsunaga and pretty strong"

Jack: "But Mrs. Mitsunaga has only daughters"

Henry: "Maybe a distant relative? Who knows"

Jack: "When we first came here to the residence, I felt someone watching us from the distance, could be him"

Henry: "You felt?"

Jack: "Yeah?"

Henry: "How can you feel someone"

Jack: "Wait, you are telling me you never learned aura-control?"

Henry: "What is that?"

Jack looks at Henry in disbelieve,

Jack: "Wow, to think that you happened to beat someone, alright doesn't matter, can you make an aura?"

Henry: "I thought my blue energy that I wrap around my fist is aura"

Jack: "No, you should be able to look through it if it were aura, but your fist completely shines blue when you wrap it with that energy"

Henry: "Mind showing me?"

Jack nods, stretching out his hand and wrapping it with a purple aura,

Jack: "My aura is purple because of my beast; normaly, soul-aura is yellow"

Henry: "So mine color would be?"

Jack: "Probably blue, every beast and awakening has a different aura, this comes from their aura color and since your energy is blue, your awakening color probably is blue too"

Henry: "Alright, let me try"

Henry closes his eyes, before wrapping his hand with a blue, see through aura,

Jack: "Not bad for a first timer"

Lenny: "98...99....100"

Lenny finishes his pushups. Completely out of breath he looks at Ichiro who fell asleep next to a tree.

Lenny: "ICHIRO"

He shouts, waking up Ichiro,

Ichiro: "W-What? Are you finished?"

Lenny: "Yeah, what now"

Ichiro: "Now try again?"

Lenny closes his eyes, focusing and feeling the warm essence in his core.

Lenny tries to pull it out, but he looses focus again.

Lenny: "S-Shit, I can't do it"

Ichiro looks at Lenny with a surprised expression,

Lenny: "Whats the matter"

Ichiro: "Look at your body"

Lenny looks down, seeing a yellow see-through aura, surrounding his whole body,

Lenny: "Whoa, this is so cool"

Ichiro: "I have never seen someone doing a full-body aura before learning to wrap only

one body part"

Lenny: "You say that Im a prodigy?"

Ichiro: "Yes I think you can say it like that"

Lenny: "How do I wrap it around my hand?"

Ichiro: "Try compress the aura and focus it on your hands"

Lenny listens to Ichiro, compressing his aura to only wrap it around his hand.

Ichiro: "Congrats, you made your first step to learn aura-control"

Balte: "I'm not here because of the bounty, only to get my revenge"

Arashi: "Don't care, I am bored so entertain me a little"

He says, pulling out his katana from its sheet before throwing his sheet away,

Balte looks at him, smirking. Suddenly Arashi who was before him is gone,

Balte: "Oh shit"

He says, before turning his arm into a mud shield to block Arashi's strike after he appears right in front of him,

Balte jumps back, exhaustingly he looks around, searching for Arashi who had dissapeared again, not noticing his cut of arm.

Balte screams in pain,

Balte: "H-How, I should have blocked it with my mud shield, did he cut through it? How strong is that monster"

He says to himself, holding his wound while walking backwards before bumping into Arashi.

Balte turns around, scared to death by the giant, masculine figure looking at him with a disgusted face.

Arashi: "You are nothing more than an ant, disgusting"

Balte falls to his knees, sweating and shouting in fear,

Balte: "P-Please let me leave, I will never step a foot to the residency ever again"

Blood splashes to the ground, Balte then looks down, revealing a cut on his body before falling to the ground.

Arashi: "Pathetic, couldn't even entertain me a little, but maybe one of the other visitors can"

He says, chuckling while making a big smile, revealing his teeth.
