Chapter 31 - ○•Devastation•○

"It was long ago when we were all young with you, Kole, as the youngest. The masters were still teens and Edward and I weren't old. You, Ice, Penny and Conner lived with us until you all became full fledged magic users. You went around with your name, Claudius, and Conner went to live in the mountains."

"Ice went to learn ice magic out of curiosity, and Penny went to a volcano to harness her lava magic." Kole shouted, "Penny was alive!?" Mr. Nafario shouted, "Kole, what do you mean!?" Ice said, "I remember... Bella left and a hyena got her..." Blaze shouted, "Why the fuck didn't you say anything!?" Mr. Nafario said, "This is terrible..."

Kole said, "Then we ran to a pride of lions. Bella set their territory on fire to retrieve us, but she only took me because we thought Ice was dead. Then she left me." Mr. Nafario sighed and said, "Well... I guess I have to explain for her actions. After your battle with Milo, you were assassinated by Sopheclies. This caused the magic council to panic, and then they became desperate."

Blacksmith and I were intrigued, but Ice looked like he had a headache. "One day, the council gathered to bring you back to life, but they wanted an... "easier " way to bring you back to life. They used a forbidden form of light magic called God's Blood. They used it to put your soul into your mother to form a new body for you. The downside is that it broke everything apart."

Lark looked angry, and Blaze looked guilty. Milo just stared with no emotion shown at all. "Your mother wanted to keep you hidden from the council and anyone else from your past. The council and... us masters wanted to turn you into Claudius again to defeat Sopheclies. However, many others heard about this, and a lot of people wanted to give you a break, thus, created the sides "Kole" and "Claudius"."

Kole looked at Mr. Nafario like his story was unbelievable. "Milo was in the jungle at the time when he found out about your death. It seems that he's forgotten about it. Blaze, Lark, and I-" Kole raised his tail and said, "Wait. What about my siblings? Weren't they alive when I died?" Mr. Nafario said, "They were, but they were killed by the council because they wouldn't choose a side."

Kole frowned and said, "Keep going." Mr. Nafario sighed and said, "Lark, Blaze, and I were on the Council's side. Conner and Edward were in Bella's side. This caused a war called by two names. To the "Kole" team, it was called "For The Revolution". To the "Claudius team, it was called "For The World". The "Kole" side got overpowered, but they hid Bella away so she wouldn't be captured and executed after your birth."

Now Kole, Ice, Blacksmith, and Milo were bewildered. Milo shouted, "Why!? You knew Claudius was tired! He didn't want to fight crime anymore!" Blacksmith said, "This is insane... all that just because this magic council wanted protection?" Ice was haunted by this story, so he could only display shock and betrayal. Exactly what Kole was feeling.

"So... you guys wanted to keep me alive? As your weapon? And you guys... wanted to kill my mother just because she went against that?" Lark said, "I did. Blaze and Nafario were against it because your mother was a good friend of ours. Reviving you was everything to me. Everything to the Claudians." Kole immediately stood up and ran out the door.

"Claudius!" "Kole!" There were mixed shouts coming from the broken barn. Kole couldn't take it anymore.
