A Little Birdie (2)

Sprinting away I needed a way for myself to control my powers. Though nothing really came to mind. The original Escanor although vulnerable at night would retain his original body while I could not. In fact my body was blessed to always be stronger whenever noon or midnight hit. My pride would also blind me while Nox at night made me feel Hollow it was strange, to say the least.

Thinking I tried to meditate. I of course failed. I had no actual experience of meditating and even if did. It was hard to think of nothing and sit down. Our minds after all always think of something but never nothing because if we were we would be dead. Trying to think of one thing didn't work as I just couldn't so I was stuck in a frustrating situation.

Trying to be angry though didn't work as my pride wouldn't allow it. Nox would also calm my mind when I tried to be angry. Although I could be angry I couldn't express it. It was a silent rage. So instead of wasting my time trying to meditate I instead tried peeking into my soul. Something only I could do as it was lost in the void. Though I could control the void so it was no problem. Peering into it I saw a grey orb whisping around. In it was two more orbs swirling around it. One bright yellow while the other pitch black. It symbolized my powers it seems.

Suddenly I was pulled to a sort of prison. Screams being howled as I entered. Looking at myself I looked like a spectre of sorts. My hands being warped mystically, mist emitting out of my body. Looking through each cell, bodies of the Bandits I had devoured laid in each cell some screaming to be let go while others laid on the floor devoid of all life. There will broken from the torment of the prison.

I decided to leave the prison by thinking of my soul and once again I was back at the orb now looking at it shined brightly. Holding it in my palm It looked beautiful. Thinking back to the prison I now knew a way for me to summon my minions how nice. I now had a small gang of summons in my disposal. I was like the devil but worse as the devil usually tricked you into falling into his palm while I straight up just slaughter them. Best not to cross me, future villains. No, Instead it should be probably 'Obstacles.'

Looking at my soul I decided that it was best not tamper with something that may or not destroy my whole existence. Magic it was then I thought before shoving my soul back into the void to wander. Opening my eyes It was day time. Early in the morning to be more precise. Looking around I gasped many animals around me laid their petrified or dead. It was probably caused by the night before. Walking past the many corpses I went decided to walk around onlh for me to stumbke into town.

Making my way in I decided to walk around the place. Walking to a blacksmith I saw him stressed angry as he slammed his hammer down onto a peice of metal. Fustrated he tossed it aside outside. Looking at the metal no dent was made on it was almost invincible. Looking at its glossy gold colour it reminded me of.. Nth Metal. Grabbing it quickly I bolted towards the Riverbank. Getting their I waited. Hopefully, she wouldn't take to long else she might either die by my aura.

(Rewena Pov)

"What is with the exciting look Rowena? Did Godric impress you that much that you decided to dress up early up in the morning?" Helga smiled cheerfully at the smiling Rowena.

"No, that man was nothing compared to the man I met last night," I blushed as I made my self look presentable. It was something about that man that made me click with him.

"Oh, Rewena found someone more exciting than Godric Gryffindor? How interesting. Who is he?" She smiled towards me giving me a chill down my spine.

"He goes by the name Escanor and my god is he something," I stated excitedly before finishing myself up.

Walking towards the river I saw a buff man laying near the river looking towards me. He seemed brighter than the man from yesterday though his frame although now larger was similar from the one last night. Walking toward him he greeted me.

"Rowena Ravenclaw you look even more stunning in the morning," He complemented towards me though it was not tinted with lust but indifference.

"I heard you were a wizard and I was wondering if their was a way to supress the power I hold," He contenuied. Sensing his magical presence I was shocked. His power was ever growing his power expanding.

Thinking to myself I wondered he was just a stranger I had met the night before but maybe studying him would alow me to understand more knowledge. Though what would I get from him? I had enough strength to protect myself my spells being more than compentant enough. My knowlege although could be expanded was already large. Money also wasnt an issue, my wealth was more than enough to last two generations.

"I was wondering if you could help me before the middle of the day as my powers peak durring that period of time. With my power also comes my pride and I may say things which might escalate situations and such a thing would be tok troubleson afterall time is a valuable thing." He stated.

"Although I could help you what would I get? I have Knowledge, power and wealth what could you give me that I don't have," I replied to him crossing my fingers. What was he going to offer me? Love?

"I will offer you an experience of a lifetime," He smiled. Earning me a blush what did he mine by that was he hitting on me?

"Not quite the experience I meant but if you are willing I wont mind," He teased causing me to turn more red than a tamato.

"No, i'm talking about an adventure," He smiled to me.

"An adventure?" I questioned.

"Of course. Money, Fame, and Knowledge can never buy you an ounce of a genuine adventure. One filled with risk, strength and maybe love?" He smirked. Making me blush again just how was he able to make me blush so easilly.

"So in exchange for me helping you supress your powers you instead give me an ounce of adventure," I stated.

"An ounce? No. A ton," He corrected causing me to smile geniunly.

"A fair trade indeed then. You Escanor will give me a ton of aventure in exchange for a way to supress your powers. I Rewena Ravenclaw accept," I anounced pulling my hand fowarad for a hand shake. Escanor seeing it shook back.

"An oputurnity of a life time," He smiled.

"Come on let us go to my lab I will need to test your body and create a way for you to supress that power of yours. My goodness were you always that tall," I asked shocked at the height of the man who now stood 9ft instead of seven." I asked shocked at his bodies growth.

"It seems we might have to reschedule my body test as I doubt anything could peirce my skin right now." He lamented.

"It seems so," I muttered back.

"Let us go anyway I might find a way when we reach there," I replied back before walking back home. Reaching there Helga was nowhere to be seen it seems she had gone somewhere. Reaching my labatory I started to look through my notes of ways to supress a bodies strength.

"Can you explain to me what exactly your power is and what it does?" I asked him. He then all of a sudden changed his dameanor.

"My power is that gifted from the light that shines above all looking down at the earth as it pittys all. I alone carries its blessing. My strength as that of unparraled power. My power only strengthens as the day reaches to Noon before decreasing. Though my strength never weaken as my strength once again aliwly rises again. The night overshadows me as its twighlight blesses me. I draw strength from the void itself. My powers are tied to my body and soul," He anounced proudly.

"Thats quite the explanation. Hmm, it seems that we would require an itiem that would lower your strength. Ah! I got it right here. An anchor an itiem that is used to lower a person strength usually used to hide magical presence from the Witch hunters, of old" I stated before thinking again. Although what would be used? An itiem that would be used would have to have strong material to absorb the magical power and would need to be held all the times.

"Though I got the solution we would need a material of sort to absorb the magic inside you. I have the charm nesaccry but it would need you to chant and mix your blood within the material to alow for it to absorb your magical power," I explained to him.

"Don't worry I have just the the thing," He smiled pulling out a strange metal. It was quite the sight as it was gold in colour.
