I felt the energy flowing within my body while my skin burned away. Jask stood before me while Erana retreated back to safety.
Every cell that was consumed by the flames my power produced simply regenerated instantly. It's not as if this is a painless process, however. I can feel every nerve in my body firing off signals telling me that I am on fire and I am burning away. I want to stop this, but I know that I cannot.
If I don't use this power then Jask will kill us all. I don't have a choice.
I don't know what this power is, exactly, but I know that it's beyond anything that I should be able to wield right now. The toll this is taking on my body is enough for me to want to give up already.
I turned to look at my friends.

It appears as if that dark skinned woman made him regain control somehow. I don't know what she did. Perhaps this is the cost of that power? Is he some trained dog and she is the handler?
