ELUDIONE WINSLOW

"Captain... We finally found one.. after all this search.. i always though that we could only manage to recruit are Beta ability wielder never have i knew we would finally found one" The red haired girl said in awe as she look at Eludione.

"You must know Venus that Alpha ability wielders are not gods and they have weaknesses much visible than ours.. it's just a matter of time to teach him how to hide his weakness or endure it... after all it can be a burden to them and to us.." The captain said as he walk toward the child who was now subsiding his breath.

"Boy, my name is Li Dann but i prefer myself called as Captain Li. I am the twelfth leader of the new establish Scavenging Guild. Welcome to my group" Captain Li said as he pat the boy's shoulder and walk toward Elias who was currently knock out in his normal self.

"Oooh I'm so happy to have you... my name is Venus and i am Captain Li's assistant and second in command. Welcome to this group" Venus said as she give him a tight hug and a kiss on his forehead and after that she follow Captain Li while skipping.

Eludione look at the back of the three people on front of him like nothing happen. He never thought that using his ability in a short period of time would get him in this group instantly.

"Come on Kid!" The red haired lady wave her hand to which Eludione nodded and chase after them. After that commotion the people who witnessed Eludione's fantastic ability spread through the street through the poor side of the city to the rich side. Some of them were bewildered or skeptic on that shocking news, that a skinny child like him have that kind of ability that one in a million of people would only acquire. Some of the kids and adults were envious to his ability while some of them have a look of greed.

At an unkempt alleyway. A mother and her three young children was waiting for Eludione's return. They're stomach growl in every minute and they could only do is to patiently wait for their only savior in hunger. Eludione's mother regretted her life, not because she liaise with a common man and have a messy life with no food to eat and no proper house. She didn't regret anything about it. Because she had her children, she have Eludione, a responsible and dutiful son and even though her husband died she still have the memories of him, a loving and carrying father. If only she wasn't been crippled all her life she could have help her husband in the construction and he wouldn't have died or if only she could have help Eludione from his work. If only she could protect him from the abuse of those monster who call themselves humans. What kind of mother is she... she couldn't even protect her children. If only the word 'if' can turn into a wish and not just a wishful thinking they could have a perfect life even if she didn't wish for a house or food to eat, if only she can have the power to stand again and protect her children from the daily abuse and insult of their reality. But sadly an if is just a word with two letters and one syllable that she use often in her miserable time.

A mother is always a mother in the moment of their darkest days and in the moment they let go...
