Lost Shadows

My name is Light Lioween. I was born into a world of magic. My family never had a history of having powerful mages or being the go-to on the subject of magic, but that all changed in one day.

Light Lioween's vision:

Its night time already and until now no signs of the city. I spent all my time trying to do what he said, i should have just went to the city instead.

After walking for a while i stop to rest close to a tree.

"Light. You killed us. It's your fault."

"Who said this? Show yourself." I asked, but nobody appeared.

"I must be hearing things, because of how tired i am." While i talk, i start to close my eyes, but while i close... I remember my parents and i start crying nonstop.

"Why you killed us? We are your parents, Light" I open my eyes and see my parents in front of me.

"No, no... This isn't my fault, i didn't know."

"It's your fault, you brought us to death."

"No, no, no, no..."

"It's you fault, Light!" I heard this over and over. My head was full of hearing this.

"FORGIVE ME!!!"

I start to run and cry deep in the forest. I ran and ran without knowing where i was going. I just wanted to vanish.

Intil i finally stop and realise that i got lost.

I stop in front of a tree and knock my head over it. I just wanted something to cut my throat with.

"Hey boy. What are you doing here?" I get scared by the voice and become paralised without knowing what to do.

"You look scared... Are you crying? Try to relax. My name is Gyokei, i'm 16 years old. You seem lost. Let's go to my house, tomorrow i'm going to Gyok City and we can go together." I didn't know what to say, i was so distressed with everything.

"Oh, Y-yes. Tom- mo- morrow i- i go to- to there."

"What is reason to cry?" When i was about to answer, he gives me a blue tissue and asks me to wipe my tears.

"Well, let's go. You need to be careful, you can't go out at night alone. No one knows what waits for us in the night..." I start to follow him, looking around, afraid of what could happen.

While i was walking with wim, my parents disappeared.

When we arrived, he asked me to enter. When i entered i saw a well-groomed place, and i noticed that one of the rooms had a sanctuary.

"You can spend the night here. Your room is the left one."

"Got it. Thank you, Gkoyei."

I tried to sleep, but i ended up not being able to, because i couldn't stop thinking about my parents.

I hear some noises outside and i go there to see what it is. When i open the door i see Gyokei doing a training similar to the one Wendell had told me.

"There you are. Couldn't sleep probably."

He seemed smart to do such variation of that Magic style.

"Yes. How... Did you use this Body Spell? Its a spell that only the Thunder Mages can use." I asked him

"I train this everyday. My Magic is Blade, it can cut people and even spells, but its pretty useless for other things. Thats why i'm training to do this variation of the one that Lineage of Thunder uses.

"Could you teach me?"

"You know how to use magic?"

"Yea! I use the Thunder Magic."

"Thunder? That's uncommon. It's pretty interesting hear you ask this since this is a technique from your element, and not mine." He says this while laughing.

"Well, I want you to do a deep breath and try to make your aura "leave" your body." I tried but i couldn't.

"So, i read in a book what it's easier for the Thunder Mages to free their aura if they have a person that they hate. While you try, i will drink some water." When he says this Joaquin appears instantly in my head.

I just want to kill him.

I was thinking of so many ways to have my revenge from what he did, that i got up and without noticing i started to release a yellow aura from my body.

"I'm ba-- Wait a sec, you did it? Man, are you this angry? This doesn't matter. Congrats, you released your aura, this was much quickier than i thought." Then i see my aura.

"Oh, so with this i can become stronger, right?"

"Yes, the more you sustain releasing your aura, the faster you become. But to become stronger, you need to do the second step of the aura, i don't know how it works."

"Ok. How do i "turn off" my aura?"

"It starts to disappear when you get tired, anyway its getting late, let's sleep. Your aura is failing already."

"Yea, i'm getting tired."

"The more energy you have, the more it consumes. That's how the Thunder Mages get stronger." This must be what Wendell does.

"Good night."

"Good night."

When the sun appears, i prepare to go.

"Hey, Light. I can't go to the city with you, something came up. But to find the city just go straight to the path!

"Right. I owe you one."

I start to use my aura and i get much faster, but it didn't even came close to the Wendell's one. After running for a while, i finally arrive at the town.
