Cursed and Blessed [#3]

As it turns out, apparently bears like to contemplate beautiful sights, as Luxian sat down alongside the brown mother bear and her three cubs, with the little boy at his side, he sighed-

How did it come to this? Well-

-Flashback no Jutsu!-

As the night fell, so did Luxian, face down into the earth beneath his feet as he lost balance after tripping into a tree's root he didn't see: "Fuck!" He hissed her he got up, the little boy still on his back thankfully, and he was apparently sleeping? Thankfully sleeping. "Damn..." He got up and turned to wander in the direction of higher ground, where hopefully he could find a cavern or something similar where he can safely make a fireplace at the entrance of the cavern and warm himself up because he was feeling cold! He went quickly, his mind wondered what insects would taste like and if he should try fried centipedes, or maybe swallow a spider? Now he wonders how would feel having spider growing inside his stomach and crawling out of his mouth. That'd be scary to watch, probably! 'Me and my alien mind...' He chuckled to himself in his mind before he continued with his search, it lasted a good hour and a half before he found a cavern at the base of a of a mountain-like terrain, well, it was a climbing experience a little?

But he could do it easily!

He stepped inside the cavern, his eyes adjusted a little to the darkness thanks to the light of the moon entering the cavern a little bit, making so he wasn't completely blind! He settled the boy down and went down to get some sticks to make a fireplace, and when he returned he was horrified to see a large brown bear so close to the boy! Instantly he focused on a single emotion: Protectiveness. The same feeling he felt for the boy sometimes, wondering why he was so attached to the boy he met only once- The answer? He was attached due to his fucked up mind making the connection between him and the baby brother he left on that past world- he didn't have the time to process what the fuck was happening before he killed 22 people, saved some others, and scaped a goverment research facility in the span of 2 days! Two goddamn days. The brown bear stopped on its tracks and just sniffed before slowly getting closer to the boy and touching him with her wet nose- Luxian said her because behind her were two small brown bear cubs, adorable little critters they were, and the emotions Luxian saw on them were curiosity and wonder, as well as wariness, but seeing their mother acting like that they got closer so Luxian sighed and put an imprint on the bear mother.

An emotional imprint is something Luxian learned he could do- He can basically change a being's emotions permanently, or as long as this imprint holds on, since he doesn't know how long that lasts! Maybe years or more, but he's sure with this bear mother he can make it permanent. "Uhm, i guess i should give you a name?" He patted the fat little brown bear that was sniffing his leg while the mother approached him with a great degree of curiosity and surprisingly enough- Love? It was pink, so i guess it could be? I mean, there are many types of love, familial, platonic, pragmatic, romantic, and possessive! This is most likely the love of a mother for their cub, meaning the bear mother sees them as her cub? Most likely. "Let's go with the classic names then-" He didn't know for sure the little bears sex, for the mother was a mother because male bears don't stay behind to take care of the cubs, they leave! 'If only...' Was his thought as he said: "You'll be Ühmir-" The mother bear was now Ühmir, the Mighty Mother! "And you two... What about Ghündir and Hündir?" Nordic or nordic-sounding names were matching to a bear..

Or so he thought at least.

"Now..." He set the sticks on the ground before he went out to get more, this time the bear mother followed him rather harshly, but he made her go back to the cave and take care of the boy and cubs inside, for you never know what's gonna happen. He quickly gathered a few sticks and stones so he could make a fireplace, alongside some dried up leaves that were scattered around so he could light a fire: "Now, hope this doesn't hurt..." He bought the cursed lighter from the cursed shop and approached the campfire he made and lit a single dried leaf on fire- Immediately the flame went from purple to orange and red and yellow, he swears the fire uad this weird purple-ish aura around it for a few seconds, and it almost reached out to try and touch him so he pulled back and let the fire burn the campfire. He also made the campfire above stone so as to not accidentally throw a gender reveal party: 'Like, really, i hate those things.'

As he sat behind the glow and heat of the flames, he pondered- Why him? Why had him suffered, why did he came to this world, and why does he have this system thing bound to him? Luxian had gotten used to the fear and fact that he'd never get to keep anything, so ownership of things was a concept he wasn't really familiar with due to the fact that his father took everything he had so he could sell it and buy more coke, even the money he'd make to feed his little brother. 'Protect your own.' That's his whole motto, that's who he is, that's what he does. He doesn't need to know why he was brought here, or why he has this system or whatever the fuck this thing is- As long as he can be a protector of the people he takes as his own, then it'll be fine in his eyes.

'"Actually, being out in the open like this isn't so bad..." That was until he heard his stomach roll- He needed food, edible food more preferably, he cluld eat insects if necessary but he'd rather avoid doing that due to the fact that he doesn't know which ones are edible! 'If worse comes, i can try and buy food from the shop or try to get a power that makes food.' That was, if worse came! He might, however, try to get a cooking power or something similar, because he's pretty sure Ühmir can hunt and once Ghündir and Hündir get older, they can also- 'Okay, plans, future, need to have plans... First objective, power, second objective, influence, third objective, a safe place, fourth objective, education... The rest will come.' He wasn't a nerdy kid, but he kept his grades up so his dad didn't have an excuse to beat him up- not that he needed it to be honest, but he still attained some knowledge.

Most of it was from history and english, because he was really bad at math.

He passed out pretty late in the night, but woke up from a harsh nightmare where his father had broken all the bones of his body and was therefore torturing his brother while he watched- Luxian craved, he needed that sense of control, so he gripped his skin thightly and held on to it to try and come down from a panick attack as the sounds around him aided his action: "Bea." The small and soft voice made him blink, there, on the end of the small cave, stood the small boy surrounded by two playful cubs who were pawing and playing at him, instantly Luxian'a overprotective nature overtook the actions of the cubs and he pushed the sense and feeling of caution so they wouldn't use excessive force while playing with the kid. 'Just in case...' He sighed out and felt himself calm down as he had an objective in mind, it seems that if he has an objective or something to distract him long enough he'll be able to deal with his panick attacks.

The day was different- Now they had three bears following them! He put the young child on the back of the bear, he didn't say much but his blue eyes would fill with wonder- He probably can't talk due to trauma... Trauma was a deep mental scar, Luxian clearly saw the gashes on his emotional aura, like canyons that were wrong and he couldn't fix it normally, maybe through long therapy? Anyway, getting the [Alien Mind] curse had somehow helped, maybe because he doesn't think like a complete human anymore so his brain processes trauma differently. As it turns out, apparently bears like to contemplate beautiful sights, as Luxian sat down alongside the brown mother bear and her three cubs, with the little boy at his side, he let out a deep sigh- Watching this scenary was so beautiful. They could see the green and oranges, such beautiful sight had made his heart bleed in wonder and joy, serenity, and interest filled his soul.

He wanted to practice art again- With a single branch, he drew as best as he could the scenario before him. It ended up somewhat resembling the scenario in a rough but interesting way, the dirt was now a mark left behind by him. 'Well...' He thought for a second before erasing it, never be too careful, for such a thing doesn't exist.

[(1) Extraction Point Received!]

"Finally." He took out from the system shop what he wanted- A thin glass-like disk, it looked fragile and it was, since it could only be used once! 'What word...' Considering the fact that they are in a journey, food, shelter, water, and other essentials such as medicine and maybe equipment would be necessary, but he had to focus on one thing for now- Food. Don't get me wrong, he could make the bears feel thristy, make their bodies send a signal to their brain making the think they were thirsty and wanted water so they would find it! "Food it is." It might sound harsh, but Luxian was used to starvation, but he couldn't help but want to feed the boy- As long as he is careful enough, he can survive 24 hours to get a power related to water, and then maybe when he figures out how to get curse points he'll get more.

He used the skill- What? He was curious! Of course he went a little far away from the bears and kid- They were a strange bunch, two kids and threw bears- Four kids if you count Ghündir and Hündir. 'I hope this doesn't kill me...' His hands sank into a glowing purple mirror, his figers twitched as he pulled a-
