Marcus Grant was a special child. Anything he wanted, he could have with a snap of his fingers. But life like that gets boring.

'I don't really know how to control it, but I need to pull in as much from the surroundings as I can,' he thought, trying to control the power.
"But I'm not ready yet," he said, raising the sword and quickly bringing it down in one movement. A huge blade of air flew from his sword and slammed into the arch. While it was not completely destroyed, it did heavily damage the object, sending multiple cracks through the symbols.

"What… what have you done?" he asked in a bewildered tone, before bursting out with laughter. "You saved the city, but at what cost?"
The sigil on the ground began to fade as the gate crumbled. 'It's done,' Marcus thought. 'The city is safe.'
"Wait, a cost? What cost?" he asked.
