While Rubeus and Mark were standing up after the explosion of whiteness, the light promptly started to dissipate.
Click-Click the sound of the small rocks cracking was heard. If one saw the small rocks one could see that the cracks were the same in both rocks, but were multiplying at an incredible pace and with the last Click the rocks turn into dust was carry aways by the breath of the night.
Rubeus and Mark watch Lith rest on the table. It didn't take long for them to realize that all the painting Mark had done was gone. The ritual was a success!
After a minute of waiting, Mark frown. Why was Lith not waking up?
***
Lith opens his eyes to see the familiar celling of his room. He stayed in his bed a few seconds before the realization dawn on him. Why was he in his bed? Wasn't he suppose to be outside? Was everything a dream?
The door of his room open and Mark was there looking at him,
-Rubeos! Lith woke up!- Mark scream and from the kitchen, the noise was heard and in an instant, Rubeos was there he had moist on the corner of his eyes.
-How are you feeling?- asked Rubeos with a trembling voice.
-I feel great?- Lith was unsure- what happened?
-Well after the explosion of whiteness, we waited for you to wake up -Mark answer, while Rubeos was concentrated looking at Lith- you slept for the past 3 days, and in the last two days, you had some changes...
-Changes? I don't feel different-
-Well at the beginning we didn't realize but after the first day, your skin color started to chan-
-What!?- Lith exclaims as he took out his arms from under the blanket, and effectively his skin was darker than before, it was of beautiful brown color.
-Yes it got darker and well that wasn't the only change your hair is now a red pink? and looking at your eyes well they also change from black they change to violet.
-...- Lith didn't know what to say- can I have a mirror?
-You know the only mirror is in the bathroom, why don't you go take a shower and come down to eat something when you are done.
Lith nodded while Mark pushed Rubeos down out the room and down the stairs. Lith plummeted back to the pillow with a long sigh. After a few seconds, he got up and went to the bathroom. The mirror confirmed what Mark had told him. It was too much to take in, but incredibly after few seconds in front of the mirror he started to accept everything, nor that he could do anything to change things. Other than these changes he didn't find anything new. With that, he took a shower, he hadn't realized how much he needed one. After the shower feeling refreshed, he went down the stairs to eat something.
-So how are you feeling now?- asked Mark
-Better? I'm still a little shocked- Lith answered while sitting at the table- but I guess I will get used to it?
-That's the spirit, and don't worry while your looks are a little striking, they are by no means bad, are weird, there are too many with weirder looks than you.-Rubeos commented while bringing the plates with food to the table-
-...-
-Fuck, that sounded bad-
-Don't worry Dad, I know what you mean- Lith answer with a smile.
Silence.
-I have a question how do I activate my blessing?- asked Lith.
-Well it depends, first in the type of blessing. While is true that all have a "status", not all "status" are the same, not all blessings can be activated the same- Mark felt Rubeos stare- But you should first eat and then worry about these details.
Lith didn't need a translator he knew what was happening so he decided to start eating. He felt really warm, it was nice that his fathers didn't change around him, he recalled the words from Unlimited.
After eating quite a lot, and chatting a little more with both Mark and Rubeus. He went outside to try to understand a little more about his blessing.
That was when it down at him he didn't know how to access his status. He thought of going back inside, but he decided against it, he would try to figure it out by himself and if it didn't work he would go asked for help.
First, he tried feeling for something inside himself, but after a few minutes, nothing happened. Then he tried calling for Unlimited
-UNLIMITED!- scream Lith, but nothing.-Unlimited- called again, and nothing. He called in his mind and nothing.
After a few different tests, Lith wasn't sure what to do. Lith was talking to himself.
-How could he call for his status?-
-Have you tried to say status in your mind- commented Rubeus that appeared behind Lith.
-Dad, since when are you standing behind me?- Lith turn around, and not only Rubeus was there Mark was there too.
-We have been here for a few minutes now-answer Mark-its not our fault that you didn't notice.- Lith blush a little but thank Rubeus for the suggestion
And called inside his mind 'status'.
