Chapter 5 - Vorden’s Awakening.

Lith was dumbfounded with fear. He couldn't even move a finger out shock. He just watched Vorden twisting or say being twisted by some unknown force. His limbs bent at uneven angles whiles his skin peeled off. The doors of the hall opened to reveal a shocked Davies. Lith turned to his father to complain but he was rather shocked the more to see his father smiling. He wanted to talk but his father shushed him saying,"Don't worry. He is awakening. Your brother is a Pro-guda." That was all Davies said as he continued to watch his son going through the hellish torture. He felt the urge to go near his son but he knew the consequences of that action,a reason for holding Lith back firmly. Lith couldn't understand what was going on but he still believed his father. However, he couldn't look at the scene in front of him.

...….

Vorden couldn't describe the pain and torture he was in. He could his bone twisting and breaking fiercely, his organs bursting and exploding causing him to bleed profusely. He couldn't understand what was happening to him not like he could stop it if he knew what was happening. His insides felt like an overheated oven and his blood boiled like lava in a volcano. He wanted the pain to end:as a matter of fact, he wanted to die so that he could escape the pain he was going through. The worst part was when his skin started peeling off bit by bit. It felt like whatever was doing that did it on purpose. The last part of the torture hit him like a giant wave causing his skull to shatter and his brain to turn to sauce. The only which was intact was his heart which was still beating normally like nothing ever happened. With this he fell unconscious.

A sudden light burst from Vorden the moment he fell unconscious. It was a mixture of dark black and snow white color. It formed a kite over him and encapsulated Vorden in its radiance. Vorden's body underwent transformation again. He previously looked like a badly mutated zombie but the kite solved that problem. The transformation started from the inside:his organs regenerated. His brain molded itself and positioned itself in the skull which had grown back. His bones shaped and grew back in the right places. On the outside,his body twisted back to its original form. His skin grew back. Every part of his body that was demolished turned back to normal through radiance the kite emitted. After Vorden's transformation was done,the kite split into two kites,one dark black and the other snow white. They rotated around Vorden causing the light that was encapsulating him to enter his body through his many pores. After this was done,the kites entered his body:the black one through his head and the white one through his chest at the heart area.

"It's done. He did it…..he did it!" Davies exclaimed in joy. Lith felt his legs give away from mental fatigue as knelt down. "My brother awakened….."he muttered. He was right but Davies had other thoughts. "He's an Ultra. That was a double awakening. But the god arts he awakened are not unstable ones so he should be okay." Davies thought. He quickly approached Vorden's unconscious body and picked him up. He called Lith to his side as his eyes glowed a green like jade color. Sand particles floated around them for some few seconds and fell back down. Davies and kids could not be seen there. Green powdery substances could be seen on the ground in place of trio. Davies had used one of his abilities, Jade Emperor's Tracks. It was related to his innate;Jade Emperor which gave him an affinity with jade and the power to transform any earth related material to jade for his own use. The ability he used gave him the power of earth teleportation(it will be later explained).

...…

"Reporting my lord"a deep voice said from the shadows. The owner of the voice appeared to be in a small, white room. The person he was referring to,an old man who sat cross legged in the middle of the room nodded for him to continue. "The young lord's talent still grows. He can make use of his abilities even with the limiter. The second part is, his sons broke through the last stage of ki-jitsu." "WHAT!!"the old man exclaimed."For the eldest it's no news but are you saying that the young one also broke through?"he inquired. "Yes my lord but that's not all. The eldest child awakened right after and he appears to have awakened two god arts"the man continued. "You mean….Don't speak of this to anyone. Not even Jay or Olea."the old man said,subconsciously releasing his aura. "Ye…yes my lord. This servant here will not speak of it."the concealed man shivered. 'Ahh….what have I done. So many good talents and I allowed my pride and some stupid rules to blind me. I pray they come back when the time is due though. 3 more years for the banishment period to end. Aahh Leopord what have you done!'the old man exclaimed internally. The only source of comfort he had at the moment was that, Davies with his wife and kids would return after 3 years. That was part of the stupid rule which he regrets having followed. "Provide them with the necessary items and materials they will need before and for their entrance into Alpa. Make my son aware. I'll handle the rest. You may leave and remember, not a word to anyone."the old man said. The hidden guy nodded and vanished from his spot. "Sigh…I'm so stupid"

...….

Davies laid Vorden on his bed in Vorden's room. The bed was covered in blue and white striped sheets. He stood in front of the bird with an expectant gaze which Lith couldn't understand. After some time, he smiled and turned to Lith. "It's starting we must go now" "What's starting?" "He now stabilizing his art energy and truly unlocking his god art. Don't worry he'll be alright." Davies said to Lith.

Lith looked at his unconscious brother who was brimming with new life and smiled. He then turned and headed out with his father but something uncalled for happened.
