1 AWAKENED

The boy knew something was wrong. he knew that the world of energy he was floating in was only a state an extension of his consciousness and that no one would hear his screams the screams of a nine year old in mind numbing pain. Nothing could be more clear as his mind was ravaged by the pain the pain of change the pain of two souls blending the ancient and the new a teacher finding a new student as the light poured into his body. The whole place was churning with violent energy as the consciousness of the light became one with the boy's the raw power unlocking a memory buried under countless seals. His own parents using some kind of magic to seal something inside his own body. The boy knew there was no way he could have forgotten the pain even in with his nine year old brain. This was not a forgotten memory but a memory locked away sealed by his very own parents but that was not all. The fuzzy memories of the previous year slowly poured into his head he could remember the screams as they sealed something inside his own sister and he knew that the world was really as he had felt it was since he was five a place where monsters existed. Another memory from last year surfaced with this thought his parents fighting a truck sized scorpion to protect him and his then five year old sister a beast that possessed far more than size, stregnth or venom.

These memories slowly changed him on the inside reshaping his mind set about the world he thought he knew. But that was not where the change stopped. Every muscle, every bone, every cell became more than whatever it was before. his senses sharpening in ways beyond the human capacity. a real upgrade.

the consciousness within the light sighed as it settled into the boy's body the boy's memories slowly merging with his. The first part of the pact was complete.

the voice was ageless more ancient than time when it finally spoke

"Awake at last"
