The Cheat Seed

Chapter 54

[WAIT A MINUTE]

[JUST SAY 'RETURN' GALACTIC FUCKER!!]

...

After a laugh, the group of 10 finally decided to go back to the real world. The Summons went inside his shadow yet again. But what worried Marcus was about his body outside in the real world. A sudden urgency wavered in his voice as he shouted RETURN.

The Flashes returned once again and his vision blurred as usual. His eyes opened to the night sky as he took in a huge gulp of air. He was back and he was ok and....Dave was beside him.

"The Fuck were you dreaming?"

He scowled.

"Ah....I was just thinking about the fight tomorrow"

Marcus lied.

"Yea that one...Hehe, Make sure to whoop his ass by my side too"

Dave's scowl turned into an evil grin.

Marcus stared at him blankly for a second and suddenly his face twisted into a evil grin of his own.

"Sure, Bro..KEKEKEKEKEKKEKEK"

The Sytem thought about zapping him but gave up when it remembered what had happened in the morning.

"Cmon get up, Your parents might be worried"

Dave said as he stood up, he patted the sand off his 3/4th short trousers.

Marcus nodded in reply and stood up as well. With a small pat the sand behind his jeans blowed into the sea.

Dave was already walking toward his house, Marcus caught up to him within a second and walked right behind him. He was still thinking about his fight tomorrow with the King's son when he ran into a pole.

His head snapped back as it hit the pole in front of him with a dull THWACK. He was occupied with his thoughts to a very extreme extent that he missed his Almighty Sense alert.

"This is called Telekinesis"

Dave said with a proudful grin.

Marcus realized what had happened and grinned, he slowly placed his hands behind his back, fingers dancing.

"Woah, Cool"

With a sudden flash, A cluster of huge Rocks fell on Dave. Everything was in Slow motion when the Rock fell on his friend in front of him, crushing him under the weight. The Rocks took Dave by surprise which in turn didn't leave him any space to react.

Marcus paced past his fallen friend who was struggling to shift the rocks above him. It wasnt because of the Weight but because Marcus had his fingers down which increased the density of the air eventually shifting its pressure on the rocks.

"And what do you call this?"

Marcus sat on the rocks and asked sarcastically.

"Fucker...I am sorry..."

Dave wheezed.

Marcus jumped off from the rocks and released the air around him. He was still laughing as Dave pushed through the rocks.

"HEHEHEHE"

Dave looked at his laughing friend for a moment and thought about the rocks behind him. Did he just Manipulate the Air?? A default Element???. Eventually that was what Dave spent a whole year trying to practice and he thought he mastered it. He thought he mastered Air Manipulation AKA ability to move objects by manipulating the air around it. It was termed Aerokinesis.

Aerokinesis is the psychic ability which allows a person to influence a physical system without involving physical interaction. It is the ability to manipulate air. Aerokinesis is a psychokinetic ability where air is the object of the psychic powers. It is generally known as airbending and is a type of telekinesis that will lead to aeromancy. The person endowed with this cherished ability can be called an Airbender, Aerokinetic or Aeromancer.

The Laughing man in front of him was undoubtedly one of the few Airbenders in the world. His anger vanished, Dave was happy, He was happy for Marcus who was once a wimp who couldn't stand by his own. Dave knew it, Marcus had broke through his shell and was spreading his beautiful wings wide.

The Memory of being together and being bossed around flashed on to his eyes as Dave reminisced. The Image of Him holding Marcus's hands as his Older brother soon faded away, Instead he saw Marcus running past him, dragging him up along.

"Daveyy??"

Marcus's voice sliced his thoughts.

"Yeah?"

He snapped out of his thoughts.

"It looks like my parents are leaving"

Marcus said as he looked back and pointed at them and at Dave again.

"Ah, It's better you go now, It's this late already?!"

Dave said with an urgent tone, looking at his watch which pointed towards 10 and 12 as he pushed Marcus towards the curb which had been repaired by Marcus's parents.

The life of a Mage was easy, but not Albert's and Reiren's, they had to live like this just for today. Because tomorrow, it'll all change.

He couldn't wait for the sun to rise. He wanted to watch his like-brother Marcus Overpowering Gabriel in front of the king itself.

So he kept on pushing him towards the carriage which had just arrived. With a hug and a wave Dave's family sent them off.

Dave thumbed his hands up and Marcus winked in return. They smiled at each other, conversing telepathically and promising each other to be the stronger one.

It was a challenge, but could be overcome. Marcus thought as he remembered Raka.

Soon they were set out for the capital central, whizzing through the meadows which had dulled under the moonlight, Soon the Skyscrapers came into view as another breeze played with his hair as he sat on the window side.

They had reached the Capital Centre, Where The Huge Flame Emperor's statue was posing mightily.

The Carriage went straight as they made way to their Home Path. The traffic was still dense as always even though it was this late. But it soon died when they were a bit into their path. Their neighborhood came into view as they made way through a cluster of trees. The Open night sky looked brilliant as the Full Moon shined bright as ever.

With some more hoof steps and sounds they had arrived at their home.

Albert Got out first and helped Iris down, Reiren followed and Marcus handed Evy to his mom as he stepped out of the Carriage.

His dad was settling the amount with the Carriage driver and his mom held both his sisters on her hands. Both of them looked sleepy.

Marcus took the key from his Mother's open hand and slowly strolled towards his Gate, He opened it for His mom. Reiren entered and Albert followed behind as the carriage behind drove away.

He closed the gate first and overtook his parents to the door. With a smile he put the key into the key slot and was about to turn it opene when a strange smell hit his nose.

He sensed a lot of killing intent, the smell was very strange. It was strange to an extent that Marcus was almost sure it was not of this world.

His neck hair stood up as his Almighty sense warned him. His eyes widened and the time seemed to move slow.

He turned to look at his confused parents. His sisters sleeping peacefully on his mom's shoulders.

"No...No...No...."

His voice screeched as he looked at his parents. He could hear footsteps approaching behind him, it felt inhumanely fast.

"No...I am too late"

Marcus bit his teeth as the door behind him exploded. His pupils reflected the Huge Fire wall engulfing his vision. His heart fell when he realized he wouldn't be able to..... block it.
