The pain came back as well as the blinding white star radiating ahead of me.
The pain was unimportant.
Important was the burning feeling I had in my heart. I felt as if I was burned at the stake.
However it wasn't with wood.
No It was an ocean of gasoline.
I had the feeling and somehow also a very vivid imagination of being hung at a stake on the surface of the sun.
Or so it looked like as the whole place was a giant flame.
But in their I heart him.
I heart him!
„CHRISIIIIIII!!!!"
„Brother. Help me. It so hot."
I could feel it AND SEE IT.
In this huge flame there was I, my Stake and that Little Blue Flame, right behind my stake.
I was desperate.
I need to save him.
But this whole place was a flame their was no space that wasn't a flame.
Wait!
There was! Inside me!
Chrisi come to me!
Slowly the little blue flame floated infront of me. The closer It got. There clearer became the shape of my small brother writhing in agony just as a baby.
It made me angry.
So angry that my Anger surpassed the pain that hold back my body.
Bending forward I hugged my brothers little form.
———
Slowly and unknowingly Chrisi melted into Hans.
After that Hans started flowing Blue.
The flames were concentrating and shrinking in volume.
Behind them only the endless nothingness was left.
Hans body has repositioned itself. Now taking in the pose of Messia.
His hands spread out against the sky his legs hanging down crossed over each other at the feet.
Around him the blue glow had taken form of a kind of aura settling on Hans as an armor.
While the flames on the other side were building their own aura armor above the blue, while pressing down on the blue. The process went on and the fire condensed more and more on the red aura.
Opposite the blue aura started cracking in the end nature was stronger.
Nobody could violate the laws.
You could only posses as much as you were made to posses.
Just as the blue aura was about to shatter time stopped even here, in this space that was already outside of all that was know something could bend everything under its will.
„You two are truly intriguing.
For finding a flaw in the work you shall be rewarded.
For having come to harm heavily under a flaw of the work you shall be rewarded.
As your brother is forever lost, You shall receive all your rewards.
Weighting your complete situation on scale.
I come to the conclusion that the weights of the side of needed energy to complete the work to the OPPOSITE of energy earned through rewards, win out slightly.
As such I judge ..."
In that moment a breeze of air flew by in this spaceless Dimension and the scale were balanced.
„Hmmmmmmmm
I don't like interruption!"
The whole Dimension was shaking in its fundamentals.
Only the scale was standing perfectly stil,l seemingly being of an even higher order and as such was still showing perfect balance.
„The judgment shall always be right.
As such I judge innocent!"
The scale vanished. With it the will.
Time started flowing again. The red flames were condensing further and the blue aura shattered.
Just to reappear and shatter again.
It was a process of maximum pain.
However the flames where slowly being consumed up with every shattering.
After an eternity there was no longer any red aura only the blue prevailed but it was never fated to win.
So it shattered again. Once and for all.
Hans body started turning into vapor, vanishing too.
————————————————————
Hans woke up his body felt perfectly fine.
He knew the watch did something to him.
So the first he wanted to do was open the stats.
However once he looked at the Black watch there appeared a Notification.
„We apologize for the unconventional problems during your evolution. It was checked and corrected. From here on out such occurrences won't happen again, ever.
Because of the unconventional evolution there won't be a gift of 10% on all stats.
Because of the unconventional evolution there was a high energy requirement and all your stats were reduced by 10%.
However you won't have to retake the test.
However till you restored all your stats your evolution benefits will be withheld.
Good luck. Survive, Grow, Evolve."
After that the stats automatically opened.
