Chapter 2: Cube

In a forest with tree leaves the color blue. A large cube could be seen shimmering back into view with a enchanting visage. It surface were engraved with sophisticated arcana marks. Around it creatures with folded bat like wings could be seen moving around. From the trees to the ground, back and forth they went, confusion and apprehension present in their movements.

This creatures had tough bodies similar to those of apes in structure, but much muscular and compact. They had long ear like those of donkeys, big eyes, blade like canine teeth, and a hairless body that looked like it was made of stone.

It was a dreamy scene to behold.

The light rain made the scene much charming, but the enchanting scene did not last as the strange creatures seem to halt their movements.

Their glowing red eyes disrupted the peculiar scene. They all froze and tilted their heads. As if to listen to a voice whisper to them. Then simultaneously turned towards the cube. Running full speed at it, the creatures slammed full force into the glowing cube. Without exception the were all thrown very far away. A few beat their wings quickly to avoid a crash. Then gently approached the cube as if trying not to provoke it. With a few flap of their wing some of the creatures landed on the cube. With their sharp claw they tried to rip the cube to shreds as the had done with the car.

Unknown to them inside the cube Victor could be seen chanting. The language of the chant was esoteric. Powerful ripples could be seen in the air around Victor's mouth. When he finished chanting the vibrations stop then he murmured

"come closer" in a normal language.

With a sharp glow in his eyes. He could view the outside through a triangle screen that seemed to be looking down from above with a bird eye view of the situation. When the creatures entered the fifty feet radius of the cube. Victor inside the cube taps the staff on the ground and said

"spell slot number one: lighting serpentine Consecutive descent "

rumbling of thunder shook the sky, as in an instant dozen of snake like lightning descended the clouds . With blinding brightness every thing in a hundred feet radius was destroyed. Strangely all that remains of those creatures are broken stone statues and dust.

Even Victor's cube was not spared from his own attacks. The cube appeared to have lost most of it radiance.

A square shaped hole appeared at the top of Victor's cube and from the piles of dust rose many gem looking things that glowed. As they entered the cube all the gem were swallowed by Victor's staff with a hum. After which the hole closed.

Victor turned his gaze to Aizen who was covered in blue butterflies. The butterflies seemed to be healing his mangled body.

"He should be waking up any moment now"

Victor thought as he began to fiddle with his staff anxiously. A couple minutes later Aizen eyes sprung open, his expressions wrapped in pain. The butterflies on him turn into blue powder, absorbed by the table he was laid on.

He held his head and started screaming. This was not an ordinary pain. it was one from the depth of his soul.

Shocked Victor tried to hold him down and stop his flailing arm. Unexpectedly Aizen throws a punch at Victor's face yelling

"let go of me"

As Aizen fist connected with Victor's face illusionary scales could be seen forming on Victor's face. Aizen's fingers broke on impact. With a yelp Aizen dives of the table rolling and groaning on the floor in pain. Heart breaking sobs could be heard from his writhing body.

Victor watch this scene unable to comprehend what he was seeing and kept saying

" what have I done" this went on for a while. Till Aizen finally quieting down. Seeing this Victor heaved a sigh of relief, Aizen groggily stood up. Supporting himself with the table he was previously on.

"Where am I"

"Aizen this is-"

Falling back to ground Aizen holds his head and spoke in a small voice that the distressed Victor couldn't hear.

"My name isn't Aizen am am am, yes am Simon. O God I think I just fucking reincarnated."

Glancing secretly at Victor he thought: "this isn't time to figure things out. That guy seems to be a wizard or something. Fuck if I don't act quickly my reincarnation is going to be cut short by Merlin wannabe over there."

Standing up he glared angrily at Victor startling him.

"Victor you bastard what the fuck man. What the hell just happened"

Relieved Victor replies "we were attacked by Gargoyles you know gargoyles are—"

"I know what gargoyles are. You know what forget your stupid explanation. Just get me to this secret group of yours fast"

I must keep him distracted and use his guilt against him.

"Aizen relax let me take you to your house, so you can rest and we can go their after I have checked on your-"

"No we are there going now" severe pain assaulted his nerves he had to steele his face not to show it.

" Aizen I know magic has always been your dream. But be patient the car is broken Aizen besides you can always join another day. it not like they are going anywhere"

Looking at Aizen's palm he pointed at it with his staff.

and said "bitin resanigo"

his Injured hand was healed just like that with a flash of blue.

"Your a Wizard do something, get me there now" Aizen spoke rudely with his left eye twitching from the pain in his head.

" I am not a Wizard and your-"

Simon or Aizen interrupted knowing Victor was starting to notice his abnormal condition. Saying

"You almost got me killed, you don't get to make demands, you owe me"

harsh but truthfully you did get me killed he thought in his mind. Unknown to him he was overreacting and his actions were unnecessary. Victor was too weak to detect the abnormalities in his soul.

Victor felt hurt, he could only take out his staff and commanded

"Activate spell slot number two: Ether Python ferry."

pulling Aizen closer he dispelled the cube spell and ether colored gas started to gather around the two. Forming a phantom of a python. Looking at Aizen in annoyance he said

"Adjust speed level to Level ten" but then seeing Aizen sickly face the annoyance in his heart lessen but still present.

"No make it level eight"
