chapter 2

Isaiah then heard someone was singing, opening his eyes to see he was not in the pond he was now standing. In a different set of clothes, and he was standing in a very beautiful forest, then he realized that he is still dreaming, but not in his dream. He then noticed that there was someone walking.. Someone familiar, Isaiah then rushes to follow and see where he is at, then the man sits on a tree branch, then seems to open a portal, and he seems to be watching something. Isaiah then walks forward to ask the man in front of him, a question to see where he and himself is at.

"Excuse me, but can you tell me where we are at?" 

He then waited for a response as the man flinched, the man turned around as if time slows down, their eyes met one another. Both eyes widened, Isaiah couldn't believe it, he was over to Noah reaching up his right hand, and gently touched Noah cheek. Noah on the other hand was not expecting someone to be here, let alone him, now he was now touching his cheek, then Isaiah then quicklys hugged him. Noah then smiles a bit as he brings up his hands, and gently pats him on his back, but then Isaiah starts to shake, Noah then pulls back to see his face. Noah's eyes widened seeing tears going down Isaiah's face, he didn't believe it, Isaiah the one that never really cries except a few times, but that was it. Noah then brought up his hands, and placed them on Isaiah cheeks, as he opened up his eyes, Isaiah then grabbed his hands and leaned into them.

"My Isaiah, I am happy to see you, but how did you get here?" As Isaiah then grabs Noah's hips and brings him closer and hugs him as they still face each other. Isaiah then spoke up.

"I don't know but I am happy to see you too." They both smiled, and hugged each other for a while.

After hugging each other for a while, Noah pulled back from the hug, to look at Isaiah to look at him and Isaiah then spoke up.

"My love, how did you get inside my dream?"  Noah then started to think, on how this happened or what made it happen, he then spoke up.

"Isaiah, I have a question: are you thinking about me all the time, like dream wise?" This made Isaiah's ears blush, as he looked to his side, but then looked back at Noah, and spoke up.

"Yes, the day I left, and the memories we had together." This made Noah smile brightly, and kisses Isaiah, then speaks up.

"It is okay, because I think about you all the time too." They then hug each other again, but Noah then pulls away, and speaks up again.

"It is time to go, my love." Isaiah then grips him tightly, as he didn't want him to go, seeing this Noah sees and feels this.

"No it is okay, you have been here for too long, and you need to get back to your body. I am not dying." Isaiah nods and Noah smiles, before he knows it Isaiah wakes up with the sun starting to set down. And he sees sage sitting down with fresh clothes, with his head tilted and looking at his questions.

"Don't worry everything is okay, he is also okay." With that he got out of the springs and his injuries he had gone away. But he then started to place his clothes back on, and got ready to go back home as he still needs to teach the kids. And not forgetting he had his kid back home, so he said his goodbyes, and he then left home and by the time he got home it was already late. At home he went to check on his kid, whose name is evan, he is a cute little kid. And he behaves well, he somewhat acts like Isaiah except he is kind, and calm, he is a smart kid.

    "Evan." As Isaiah then heads towards his kids room, once he gets there he sees his kid playing with his toys. Once Evan sees his dad he gets up, and walks up to him and Isaiah  hugs him.

"What are you doing up this late?" Evan gives him a little smile.

"Waiting for dad." Isaiah nods, walks over to Evans bed and gently lays him down, as it was late and he needed to rest. And after a while of having put Evans to bed he himself went to bed, as it was late and he needed to wake up at six a.m. 

    Over the next three years, Isaiah had brought his students to learn and experience, his son is now a little over thirteen. Isaiah was getting ready as he wanted to go and visit Noah right now and was sitting on his small tree, looking at his portal, seeing how everyone was doing. But there was some boy walking up the hill, and he seemed to be in pain, he was at the top and was now in front of the tree. He was now cutting his arms, and was drawing symbols, some were say open the tree.

"I want to make a deal with you Noah, and I sacrifice my body to do it." He then lifted up a blade, but the tree opened and a hand stretched out, stopping him from killing himself. Then the body was slowly coming out of the tree. The man came out of the tree and stood and took a breath, before looking at the man before him sitting down.

"Why do you want to make a deal with me?" Noah then snaps his fingers as the symbols then disappear, the man sitting down was upset and angry.

"Because of what my aunt has done to me with her son, they treated me awful, they both abused me. I want them dead for what they do and did, so please make things bad for them. I don't care if you kill them if you want."

"If you want them to have a bad time then, so be it. But you don't need to sacrifice your life and body, but I do need to prick you for a little bit of blood." Noah said as he was looking down on the man.

"Of course." As the man nods his head fast before putting his hand out, and Noah uses his magic and pricks his finger, then the drop of blood floats around and turns to mist, covering Noah. Turning him to the man, still black hair, but not as dark, or long and he turns a bit younger, with simple clothes, like black shirt, with black skinny jeans ,and a simple pair of shoes on.

"Well then, what is your name?" As Noah smiles at him, they now both look alike. 

"Oh sorry my name is Clay, sorry I should've said my name from the beginning." As he started to get nervous.

"It is okay, but we should get me a hat, and you some money so you could live here." Then Noah started to walk down the hill, with Clay behind rushing forward and grabbing Noah's hand.

"Wait, you don't have to do that, you already did so much for me." Noah looked at the man, and spoke up.

"No it is okay, you are on my mountain, so don't worry about it." Noah smiles at him, but Clay doesn't know what to say so he speaks up, gripping Noah's hands.

"Well how about you take my pet donkey." Noah gives him a smile, but shakes his head no.

"I can't but what you can do for me is take care of yourself for me." Then walks down, taking Clay hand, and brings him to the shrine, once getting there Noah lets go of Clay hand, and goes through and grabs coins, and coins for Clay. He then walks over to Clay and gives him a pouch and smiles, then goes back to look for a hat.

    He looks around for any, but doesn't see any, but he then looks to see a hat that is black, and big enough to hide the top of his face only seeing his nose and his lips. He takes it and places it on, liking how it fits on him, Noah then walks back to Clay. They then walked back to the village, and they both talked and got to know each other, and how Clay lived. As they walked down they were met with people busy and Clay and Noah part as Noah had to deal with the evil people. They said their byes and Noah walks away, and then remembers that he needs to get there, but then he hears a man yelling, and a horse neighing.  

Noah then looks over and sees a beautiful black horse, he is lean but powerful, and just perfect, Noah walks over to the man trying to calm the beast down. 

"Do you need any help sir?" As Noah walks up to the man and now stands close to the man, as he was trying to get the horse to calm down.

"You can try, but he does not want anyone to touch him, he is also a new and very wild beast." Noah then walks up to the horse and stands in front of him, the horse stomps on his front hooves, Noah then lifts up his hand out to the horse and speaks up.

"You are such a beautiful being you might be a beast, but you are something so special." The horse was about to stomp, but the smell and the honesty from Noah made the horse stop, and look at him. He then places his nose on Noah's hand, breathing in his scent, he smelt sweet, but also muscular. 

"Wow sir I didn't think he would do that, how did you do that?" Noah gives the horse a pat, and speaks up and gives a smile.

"Well he is a very intelligent being speaking to him as if he doesn't know anything, will anger him." The man thinks about it and chuckles and speaks up.

"Well since I couldn't touch let alone be around him you could have him for free and I will throw in a saddle." Noah smiles.

"Thank you, but I gotta do something for you...do you have a family, and a yard?" The man nods and points to a house that seems to be small and with five kids around, a mother sitting watching them with a smile. Noah walks towards their house and goes straight to the backyard. Noah saw that there were not very many plants such as vegetables, and fruits.  

    Noah then taps his foot twice and the man watches as his backyard has a big area with fresh vegs, and fruits. They couldn't believe it, the man in front of him could do earth magic, it's one of the hardest to master. Then Noah lifts his hands up in the air, waves of fresh air come in, making his little home more greener. The man then walks up to Noah and grabs his hands and speaks up.

"Thank you sir, this is very generous of you to remind me of the man of this mountain, his name is Noah." Noah then lifts his hat up and uses his magic and turns to his actual face showing his bright grey eyes, and turning them into red, green, and black. The man gasps and smiles, Noah then speaks up, before turning back to clays face, and pulling his hat down. 

"This will be a little secret, okay?" The man nods and rushes back over to his horse store, grabbing a black and white saddle, with matching reins. Then gives them to Noah, and Noah gives his thanks and walks over to the black beast and saddles him up, and hops on him. He then waves a goodbye and gently kicks the side of the horse and they are now riding fast, going to Clay's village.

After a while Noah slowed down the horse and decided to give the horse name, Noah speaks up and talks to the horse.

"Well what should your name be? We could name you based on your coat. What do you think about that?" They then get a neigh from the horse.

"Well what about kuro, that is the color black in a different language?" Then the horse shakes his head, well Noah got the message.

"Well that is a no. Well what about Raven, as in the black crow birds?" That he got a nod from the horse.

"Well then your name will be Raven." Before he knows it they are at the village, Noah then pulls the reins, stopping Raven from moving forward. Noah got down and took his hat off his head, and hangs it on the saddle. 

"Well Raven I got to go, but I will call you for a ride and we will get out of here..okay?" Raven nods his head and walks off and disappears and Noah walks to the mansion and looks for the rundown little house, that was Clay's house. After a little bit of searching he found it at the back of the house, once he found it, the outside was very run down, but on the inside it was liveable. 

Noah was looking around inside when the door slammed open and a fat kid with another kid came in and started yelling at Noah. The fat kid also pushes Noah down harshley, and starts yelling again.

"Clay you servant son, give me all your belongings and hurry up, we have a guest coming right now." As he punches Noah in the face, as the other boy was looking around and breaks the one vast in the tiny house. And seeing that there was nothing there the boy yells out at Noah again, but this time Noah gets up and gives a good kick in the fat kid's chest, sending him out of the tiny house. And not forgetting about the other kid, grabbing his arm, and swinging him out also, making him fall in front of the fat kid, the two were both angry.

"Mother will hear about this and she will not let you off this time...Do you hear me!" The fat kid yells, but Noah chuckles at him, as the two get up.

"Are you threatening me?" Noah tilts his head giving them an evil glare and a not so happy smile. The two freaked out and yelled out and started to run away, as Noah chased them to the mansion, everyone was saying 'poor kids they finally pushed clay over the limit.' As they get to the mansion, the two boys slam the door open with three other people in there, sitting down and seem to be talking until they came, they all stared at who came in their room.

    The three watch as Noah chases the two around yelling about them stealing and need to give it back, until the older lady steps in and gets up and goes up to her child asking what's wrong.

"Mother Clay is blaming me, saying I took his things, and he hit me." The lady gently grabs his face.

"Oh no are you okay, how bad did he hurt you." She then stops and looks over to the young two men sitting down at the table, she then straightens herself and her kid.

"I am so sorry about this, but my son's name is Zaine and he is also becoming a wizard." Then Zaine speaks up, as he is upset.

"But mother, you need to discipline Clay, he hit me!!!" This made the mom pinch her son's side and whisper to him.

"Stop, we will later, I am trying to get you there at school!" Then they both looked at the two kids, but then Noah spoke up.

"How are you going to discipline me! when he stole my things! And I fought back when he came into my house and broke and stole my things, which he should give back!" This made Zaine twitch his eyebrow and he jumped at Noah, Noah saw this but he then jumped behind the two kids, as they were now standing up. 

"Please stop fighting, we came here about the demon that is here." The mother then nods her head, and starts to pull her kid with her as she brings them out of the house to the area of their work area. Then the mother and kid pair then left, not before giving Noah a glare, but Noah just gave them a smile and a wave to them back, as they left. 

    Noah then sees black flags, with red words on them, and he then jumps on the roof taking one, not before one of the kids notices this and yells out at him.

"HEY YOU CAN'T JUST MESS WITH THOSE!!" He screams loudly, but Noah pays no mind to him, but looks at them, but then goes black to look at the flags. These were the kind of flags he made, but notices that they were not done correctly, frowning, he then bite his pointer finger, and fixes it. The kids look at him and the kid yells at him before the kids take the flag from him, but Noah easily dodges and throws the flag back on the post. He then jumps to the other four and uses his blood and fixes them, with the kid trying to kick him away from the flags. The other kid jumps at the first flag and looks at it, and he notices that the flag had blood on it, and seems to have other words on it. He then takes a look at the man that has been fixing. He then watchs and goes back down to see the man was messing with his friend. Noah then stands in front of the kid who was chasing him, tilts his head at him, before clapping his hands, as the kid tries to reach for Noah. But Noah then had mist go around him and disappears, as he grabs out for him to grab him but to only grab nothing.

    They both now have wide eyes to see the man was now gone, nowhere to be seen, the boy chasing went back to his friend, looking around to see it he just saw what they just saw. They both just put it out of mind and went back to work, which they didn't realize that one of the flags were missing, but anyways they went back to work, with Noah just walking around the gardens just looking around on what to do. A little time went on and it was really late, Noah was just walking around, but then he trips on something and falls down, he gets up and fixes himself, and goes to see what he trips over. He looks over at the bush to see a hand, looking more he then sees a body. Upon looking closer he sees it was Zaine and he seems to be sucked dry from blood and he was boney, his tongue and eyes missing

    As he was looking at what happened he heard a scream and it seems to be Zanies servant, he then was yelling that Clay murdered someone. Now everyone was rushing over to where the body was, but then Zanies mother was yelling out for him, once she pushed forward to see her son, dead on the ground. She was now mourning over him until someone said Clay's name, who is Noah, she turned to him and got up and grabbed hands at him and shouted.

"I will kill you! Then I will avenge my son's death by killing you!." She then jumps at Noah, but she is held back, Noah looks at her bored and he rolls his eyes at her, making her even more mad.

"Wait if you look at him, you could see he was sucked dry from blood and his tongue and eyes are cut out." Said the calm kid that was standing to his angry friend, they were both looking at the body seeing what could have done this. But Noah saw something and he looked closer and saw a black flag.

"What an idiot who would steal a demon drawing flag." This caught everyone's attention, looking at Noah and then looking at the two kids seeing them take out a flag from Zaines shirt. 

"So this is where the third flag was at..I guess this is what he got when he stole it." Said the angry kid, as his other friend looked at his friend and was about to speak up.

"That is not true, someone must have placed it on him!" As she said this she glares at Noah who gives a glare back making her flinch.

"Are you kidding me!? He stole it, he should know better not to mess with a demon drawing flags, let alone time steal it.!" The lady yells back.

"He is just a boy!!." This made yell out at her making everyone look at him.

"He is seventeen he is not a child he should know better and act his age, and not have stolen something like that flag. You are also an idiot for babying him, when you should be teaching him how to act right and not to steal." Noah then leaves something off, and stops talking to her, and then the two kids notice.

"You ungrateful child, take that back or you will get a beating!" As she gets up in his face.

"Shut up." He then looked to where it was coming from and it was coming toward them.

"What did you just say?" Noah then pushes her back while pulling himself away, as a body swish passed them. The body then was going after the lady, only to get hit back with a sword, and the body, they could tell that body was now dead, and it was Zane's servant, Noah could tell there was a demon, the two boys were now finishing of the zombish, but then the demon then was already out of the body. Noah then looks around for it, but he then looks at the mom, seeing her just sitting there, as the two boys were examining the body, as it was also missing the tongue and eyes. The kids have never seen this before and the angry kid uses his magic of wind and shoots it up in the air, with a cloud and with sliver little gates on it.

"Hey you kids you should check on the lady.." Knowing that the demon was in the lady body now, the kids walk over to her and started to speak to her, but then she jumps at them and scream at them, and started to try and hurt them, and she was quick, Noah knew that this will be a tough demon, and he knows that there cloths has protection on it, so he kicks the angry teen to save his friend from getting hurt.

"Hey why did you kick me!" Noah looks away and whistles then the demon charges at Noah, but Noah just dodges the attack, Noah kicks her in the face sending her back a bit.

"Forget that you see how the demon reacted to your clothes, let's use it and put it away, into the pouch." Then they both nodded and took off their coat and threw it on the demon and one stood in the front of the demon and the other stood in the back. They both took out their swords and stabbed the ground a bright white light came in, they both used the magic and one was air the other was water. They were both doing good but it was not lasting long, as the bright white light was dimming, then turned into nothing they were both blown back, Noah was about to do something, but he heard something thought he wouldn '''t hear not for a little more while.
