Reaching out I grabbed what I could reach as the area started going black and then slowly I came back to the village. Looking down in my hand to see what I managed to grab I was shocked.
I was quite shocked, the item I put back was in my hand rather then the cloak I had decided on.
Item: Black Jewel of ???, Grants the wearer something based on who you are. Color Jet Black Value: 2,000,000 Gold
That was sitting in my hand rather then the cloak I had decided on.
I sighed and looked around, Cain was no where to be seen nor was anyone else but the townspeople. Pulling on my link to Cain, I realized that there was a block in our connection. Pushing power to open back up the connection and see where he was, I found him in my room at the Inn surrounded by Georgina, Micheal and Jin Woo. As I had control of Cain, his mannerism went from passive and worried to straight backed and powerful. The three of them immediately took a step away from Cain like he burned them or something.
"Cain what the hell is that? Where are you getting this power from?" Jin Woo asked confused.
"Jin Woo go to the fountain and turn left. Go to where the Master was last seen right now?" Cain spoke filled with my power.
I tried to make it seem like it was Cain speaking.
"Maybe its a bond power or something." Georgina spoke up.
"That power feels like our master's power" Spoke Micheal while he was rubbing his arms.
"I do NOT take orders from you Cain but I will decide to follow your REQUEST this time as I should check out that area personally to see if I can catch something you or Sung Woo missed." Jin said as he left the room.
"Good he listen to me," I said thru Cain. "Michael go get Max and have him come in here. Georgina I can tell you have something you want to say so go ahead and say it. I will listen."
"Cain, who do you think you are giving us orders. you are forgetting that master put us all as equal powers. You may have gotten some incredibly powerful power right now but don't let it go to your head. You know that Master will punish you if you attempt to overtake her seethe again. This time though she might actually kill you." Georgina stated boldly.
I couldn't help but start to laugh, "Georgina who do you think is speaking right now? Michael I gave you an order go do it."
Michael gave me a puzzling look, but he left it to do as I told him to do.
Georgina replied, "Cain I know that it is you, you're trying to pretend like you are master but it won't work on me. I know how you were before the tricks you used to use so you can't fool me."
"Georgina I warned you once before do not let the past affect your current present. I would not tolerate your hatred to cause a problem with the seethe. Now I suggest you go do as I told you to do before you actually make me very unhappy. When Jin Woo comes to get me and escorts me back to the seethe we will be talking again in person." Cain said coldly.
"Master will protect me when she comes back." Georgina replied.
Again I couldn't help but laugh, "Georgina this is your master, Lady Lilith speaking to you using my bond to give orders thru Cain right now."
"I don't believe you, CAIN." Georgina replied.
I sighed, "We will talk about this later for now go do as you are told."
There was a knock on the door. Michael and Max walked in with Max looking quite puzzled.
"Cain, Michael said that you were looking for me. Is there something I can help you with?" Max asked.
"Ahh, good Max you are here. I need you to scout around and find out exactly how far we are away from Netherworld. I am not exactly sure how long it might take bring the seethe to the castle, or how far away we are. Find out and let the master know when she returns. I will be waiting for your report." I said again thru Cain.
"Of course I would be happy to provide you with this information. I will leave at sun down to go make my inquires. Should I bring Hanho with me?" Max asked excited to be given an important task finally.
Cain nodded, "This will be a good first task for you both to take care of so go and head out at sundown. When you come back, I will see what can be done for your issue with the sunlight."
"Thanks, Master!" Max said and left to get Hanho and himself ready.
***I was pulled from Cain by being tapped and brought back into myself.***
"What the hell, who dares to touch me!" I spoke as I turned around.
There standing behind me with his hand still out was Jin Woo with Xu Cheng beside him.
***Meanwhile back with Cain***
He staggered and fell to his knees. Georgina froze and looked at him confused. Taking a step back from him she held herself. She was slowing coming around to the fact that the person she was talking to was actually Master and she might be actually in trouble right now. Micheal offered his hand to Cain and helped him stand up.
"I hate when Master does that to me without warning. Its so painful." Cain quietly said while using Micheal's hand to help him up. "That really wasn't me Georgina. Master gave you an order and you ignored her. She told you and everyone that she can speak through me if she feels like it. Well you just saw her do it and disobeyed. I feel sorry for you and what her wrath will be like for you."
***Back in the village***
"Touching her did work as I guessed. Master you were in a daze. What are you holding there in your hands? It feels very powerful and pleasing to me for some reason. Are you ok? Cain came back all worried and started talking about how you just vanished in a blink of a bright flash of light." Xu said trying to direct the anger I had for being touched towards him rather then Jin.
