Kale and Hyker took me to a forest where it was quieter and calmer. The area they led me to was a training ground they had been using for who knows how long. The equipment seemed old but new at the same time. There was a hot spring nearby as well which I'm definitely gonna try out
Hyker: Ok kid, Orin and Rosa aren't here. We're not here to babysit you, we won't go easy on you either. We want to get that beast out of you. We'll do all we can to do it. It's gonna hurt like hell, don't let it because then you'll go overboard and we might have to kill you if you don't kill us first. We can't have that happening for Orin and Rosa's safety and for those humans you saved.
Kale: Wouldn't want them to get fried up would you?
Dionis: Alright fine. What are we doing then?
Kale: Which way do they live Hyker? Contact the main witch, tell her we've got him *holds sword at his face*
Dionis: Whoa... whoa hey... *feels fire rising in throat and burps a bit of smoke then breathes in* Its only a test...
Kale: Is it? *he kicks him back into a tree getting into a stance his sword steady as Hyker rises into the air*
Hyker: Keep him busy, oh and don't mind the screaming...
Dionis: *groans and wipes face* What screaming?
Orin: *steps on leaf*
Rosa: Sssh... we can't let them know we're here
Orin: Relax we're really far
- Girl screams -
Dionis: Jane?
Kale: Oooh look at that vein, the anger building up huh? Didn't think we'd find your girls?
Dionis: *eyes change color as wings emerge slowly out his back* If you touch.
Kale: You'll what? Kill me?
Dionis: *hears the scream again and his name then flies past Kale quickly*
Kale: Shit. Ok plan B. *flies over to a shifter* You be the mother and call after him. I'll go check on Hyker
Hyker: *sits in a tree with a witch nearby holding Jane in one hand and Aliss in the other* Took you long enough. Still think this is fake?
Dionis: F- *inhales then exhales*
Witch: *chokes Jane more*
Dionis: *growls a bit then relaxes self* It's not real... it's not real...
Marissa: Dionis!!
Dionis: *looks over towards the sound and hurries*
Marissa: *runs towards him with her clothes tore up* They're trying to kill me... they got George *sobs*
Dionis: *breathes*
Kale: Excellent. I can sense your anger declining. We're done for now.
Shifter: *turns back to normal* You have to set me on fire?
Kale: Oh relax you're alive aren't you?
Shifter: Fuck you. *looks at Dionis* So, how you feeling kid?
Dionis: Chest burns
Kale: Yeah well, that'll go down don't worry about it.
Hyker: *Walks over with the witch and two shifters
Dionis: *snarls at the witch then coughs*
Hyker: Hey relax she's good.
Witch: Sorry hon, these two tell me you're conquering your anger. Good. *holds hand out* Sylvi, you're Dionis they told me
Dionis: *shakes her hand* Nice to meet you and sorry, last encounter with witches
Sylvi: Yes, you are the one that killed my sisters. I must thank you for that
Dionis: *raises a brow* Why thank me?
Sylvi: I am a pure witch, unlike my sisters who feast on innocent children and live to cause nightmares to everyone and everything.
Dionis: She tried offering me a position to work with her delivering the children. I declined of course.
Sylvi: Smart boy *smiles* If you need anything *points to a house not far* Don't worry I don't have cages of children in there
Dionis: Noted, nice meeting you.
Sylvi: You too *leaves*
Hyker: You two can come out now!
Rosa: I told you they knew! *she comes out from hiding*
Orin: *steps out as well*
Kale: What are you doing here?
Rosa: You shouldn't push him that hard
Dionis: Rosa it's fine *smiles a bit* I need this. I don't wanna hurt you two, them I don't really care but you two have done so much for me and we only met yesterday.
Rosa: Ok fine... but be careful
Dionis: I will
Rosa: *smiles* Now come, food is ready
Orin: I'm sure you'll enjoy
Rosa: You two, come with
Kale: You sure?
Orin: Do you have anything else to do?
Hyker: I mean.. not really
Orin: Then come
-They all leave back to the house-
Dionis: How did you two know about my sisters?
Hyker: We're smart. Know your enemy, do some research. We moved around finding information about you. We already knew about you taking down the witches. Sylvi was there.
Dionis: I did catch another scent... but it wasn't a bad one.
Kale: *nods while drinking then setting cup down* You'll be able to smell danger coming from a far by clearing out that uncontrolled anger.
Hyker: Thats why we need to be strict *looks at Rosa*
Rosa: I said I'll let you continue, don't mention this at the table.
Kale: Anyway. Yes research. We learned that the two girls that were taken caused your transformation so obviously meant they were close to you. Also we have spies. The shifters saw your mother in town.
Orin: Smart.
Kale: You passed the first test. But there will be many more, so be ready and fight the anger, know that it is all just a test nothing more and conquer it.
Hyker: Be ready by morning tomorrow before sunrises. Meet us at the spot. *sets utensils down* Thank you two for the meal.. we haven't had one in a while, too busy doing our missions
Orin: You should take breaks, relax.
Rosa: Start a family.
Hyker: *looks at her with a stern expression* No. *he leaves*
Dionis: What was that?
Rosa: *gets up and goes to Hyker*
Kale: You'll learn one day kid. Get some sleep *slaps his back hard and leaves*
Rosa: You are not your father, or your mother Hyker. If you don't want to make the decisions they made then don't. This is your life *she pats his chest gently* It's your life hon. *goes back to house*
