I looked at Aadrika and give a small smile as I knew that this would be my last time seeing her. I closed my eyes and waited for the pain, for someone to kill me. I was assured about Aadrika as I knew that I have all my powers send to her. I have connected my soul to her and now, the shield wouldn't be broken even if die or even if it would be attacked by the most powerful attack. I can die now, peacefully.
I suddenly felt like I am in a complete void. I can feel complete darkness and I found myself at a complete black place. I wondered if this is death, but I never felt any pain. It was dead silent there.
Then I heard "You are not dead, you are still alive." I frowned at voice's words and I asked: "Who are you?" It, very calmly and cautiously, said: "I am the dark stone, and you are in my master's body." I frowned at its statement and asked: "Who is your master and why I am here?"
The voice spoke again and I can feel a sense of proud in its tone "My master is no other than your sister and right now she is using her powers and she has shifted your body into hers." I asked worriedly at its explanation "What do you mean, explain thoroughly." It said, "Why explain? feel yourself." Then I felt a bright light coming to me and...
I saw beautiful lights of different colours, colours matching all seven powers. I frowned and I saw a few men coming to them. One of the men said, "My lord the dark power is going out of control and it is getting hard to deal with it." Then the white power said, "Do you know why does it get its name 'dark power'?" All the men shook their heads indicating no. Then the red power chuckled and said "It is because we don't know anything about it. It is completely black to us so we named it dark power."
Then one of the men muttered, "But it is just as bad as its name." It is heard by black power, legendary power, as I assume it by its colour, said "It is not bad, it is just unstable for now. You are just afraid of it because it seems too powerful to be controlled by you, but that doesn't make it bad or evil. It is the purest form of itself."
Then the men apologised saying "My pardon, my lord, but if it is too powerful to be controlled by anyone then, who will control it?"
Then transparent or say airpower said: "That power is purer of pures, stronger than strongest, beautiful than anything else, BUT... the one, going to hold it must undergo many predicaments since this is too much power and it is a power that even we don't know capable of doing what?"
At this one of wise men said: "But there is no one who is capable of doing something like that, my lord, how will it get stable then?"
Then one of the powers said "Worry not! Whenever any power is created then it creates it's very own and equal counterpart and this law goes for everything. Soon you will find someone to hold those two powers, which are completely opposite to each other. So go make sure it is settled on the island, until, that person comes and hold the instability of dark stone!"
I saw all the men going out of there and then I saw them creating an island in an empty space. They made a castle and went in it. Then one of the men, which was looking quite an old one, took out a glowing orb and placed it at the centre of the pedestal. Then they went out of it and closed the palace and even the island.
Then I suddenly came back to that blackness and I felt the presence of dark stone there. I just somehow knew that it is dark stone, I don't even know why.
But I asked it "I know you are there, tell me, what was that?" The voice seems surprised as it said "Well, that was the creation of me. That was me, I am dark power." My eyes went wide with surprise as I asked him "H-how?" It said "I was created to balance the other matter then seven powers. But as soon as I get collected and converted into energy, my equal counterpart form on its own. Then the other universes are formed."
I frowned and asked "Other universes?" Voice said in a very shocking tone "Oh, yeah, you don't know that much, but soon you will. Till then make sure my master is safe and sound and one more thing, she is completely pure and innocent, she doesn't even know anything about any of this, make sure she doesn't get hurt more than she already is."
I nodded, and I was about to ask something but before I could do so, I slipped back to where I was standing and all the memories of me talking to dark stone hit me like a legendary spell as I saw my little sister bleeding...
Aadrika:
I felt my heart skipping a beat, seeing my brother having a sword on his throat and ready to die for me, is not a thing any sister is ready for. I can't let this happen, especially when I know all of this is happening because of me. I saw a guard coming to him with his sword ready to tear him. I closed my eyes. I thought-
'All this in my family is happening because of me, so why the pain and misery are taken by my brother. He doesn't deserve this, but I do. I want to take all of his pain. I want to be at his place. I want the wound that is being given to my brother...'
With that, everything for me, become dead silent. I felt my heart start to beat at normal speed and I felt myself glowing from inside. I felt a light born inside me. Then I felt myself at Gale's place. I felt his fear for me, anger for people and his true self. I felt his heartbeat, I felt the blood rushing in his veins, his breathing, his sweat pouring from his skin, heat from all the commotion, dryness in his throat, the blink of his eyes, then I felt a piercing pain right in my stomach. I felt a metal cutting through my skin and tearing my tissues. I felt the blood started to rush out of my wound.
Then I heard a voice which said "Aadrika!" It was Gale. He was looking pale like he has seen a ghost. He was frowning and looking at me with wide eyes. I looked at him, checking if he is alright or not. Then I saw no blood or no marks on his clothed body. I felt a calmness washing over me, and I smiled at him, but he didn't smile back, now I felt wired at that.
But I before I could think about his reaction I met a pain which was coming from my stomach. I felt my blood rushing or leaving my body at a certain point. I looked down to check what was happening, but when I looked down my hands work on their own.
I saw a wound on my stomach and blood was clearly dripping from it. My hands tried to stop the blood but then I met with an unbearable pain which was too much for my handling. I closed my eyes. I could hear Gale's voice calling for me, it was full of worry and fear. I felt draining and draining more. I felt myself at the loss of energy and my movements start to slow down.
I felt my heart beating at very normal speed and I felt blood slowly and painfully losing my body. With all that blood loss from my body, I felt a similar blackness covering me and I let it cover me to all black...
Gale:
"She used her powers, OMG! She used her powers!"
I don't know if I should be happy or sad. I mean, I should be happy because my little sister which everyone used to say, that she has no power, used her powers for the first time. But at the same time, she used her powers to take my pain, my wound, my hurt to herself, so there is no meaning to be happy. Then I saw blood oozing out of her wound and ruining the perfect white floor.
My body reacted on its own and I mouthed "Aadrika!"
I ushered towards her and this time no one dared to stop me, because even if they have tried I would have killed them without a second thought. I was sure that everyone is perfectly aware that I never get serious but if I get then it's better to stay away from me.
I stood in front of her and she looked into my eyes. Her hands were firmly pressed against her naked belly and she looked at me with happy emotions in her eyes.
Her eyes were having very-very deep happiness that I don't know why, I mean why would anyone be happy in this condition, but look at my Aadrika, she is smiling like everything is fine and there is no pain. Her lips formed a smile, a large one, not like mine small one.
There was nothing similar to our smiles, hers was large and happy covered and mine was small and was covered with sadness. But in her and my smile, one thing was common that they both meant to be parting smile. I don't know how can this girl do that much, I mean smiling that greatly with such huge pain, but it's just her thing and only she can do it.
She started to close her eyes, but I stood frozen there. She closed them, then, she fell. I still stood frozen. I can't believe that she died. How can she leave me? I mean, how much I tried, even then I failed? How? Why? Why would this happen? Why only with my sister?...
"Thank God! We finally are free."
I looked back at the owner of these words, Myra, and she was smiling with relief. Really? I looked at her with shock and soon she noticed me and passed me a smile and asked, "What?"
I looked at her, giving look 'really?' But she just gave me a sinister smile and said "Yes, I am happy, know why? Well, no? Let me tell you, I am so happy because that fucking witch is dead now. I would have been more glad if I would have killed her with my hands."
With that, she started to laugh and everyone in the hall laughed with her. I felt myself losing. Then I looked at mother and she was looking down and father, he was smiling. ENOUGH!
My inner side told me and I lost it. I felt my powers increasing and increasing. I can feel my powers going out of control, my beast side tried to take me. I have always rejected it and I was sure for not using it in future, though this time I showed no effort of restaining it back and I let it take control.
As I felt myself going into heavy darkness, my limbs one by one started to feel numb. I started to feel stiff and tied. But this time I don't care. I started to go down and down. I felt light in front of my eyes slowly vanishing and vanishing...
