Lucas was dragged away by Lucy,and Casey followed them.
They went to play while also showing Lucas their talent skills.
Lucy's talent was elemental manipulation just like her mother while Casey's talent was superhuman body like her father.
It was very rare to find inherited talents but the Dam family had it for some reason.
Marie could control the four basic elements proficiently while Lucy could only control two and she was still in the intermediate stage of controlling water and fire which were the only two she could control.
Casey on the other hand can only make some part of her body superhuman, she can also make her full body superhuman but that consumes all her energy in ten seconds.
"Hey Lucas,have you finally unlocked your talent skill?". Casey asked.
"Yeah, we are the same age but I unlocked mine four years ago " Lucy added.
Lucas shook his head and said. "You keep on asking me this question every day. If I awaken my talent you will be the first person to know, I don't know why it's taking so long but i know it will it will soon awaken."
Lucas didn't tell anyone but for the past week he could see a timer before his eyes.
After some tests he figured out that no one could see the timer other than him.
He kept his hope on the timer hoping that when it reaches zero he will awaken his talent.
***************
The next day …
[Congratulations! , time remaining 00:12:56:09].
Lucas was very happy when he woke up because of this.
He woke up at dawn when everyone was still asleep and went out to train his body which had become his daily routine for the past eighteen months.
He trained his body so he wouldn't be at a disadvantage when fighting his peers.
He lifted boulders for strength, ran across the field till he couldn't move anymore for stamina and got himself chased by beasts for speed and agility.
His body was stronger than a kid his age but it was nothing when compared with someone who possessed a boby building or super human skill like Casey.
By the time he was done with his exercises, the sky had already become bright.
He laid down on the on the field which was not far from the house.
He closed his eyes and tried to regain his energy but he unknowingly fell asleep.
"Lucas! Lucas wake up! "he heard a shout. "Wake up or I will smack you! "
Lucas opened his eyes slowly and he saw the eleven year old Casey staring at him with her shining dark blue eyes as her blonde hair fluttered in the wind and covered her face.
"C-casey" he said as he tried to get up from where he laid.
When he stood up he felt slightly dizzy and rubbed his eyes so he could see clearly and in the process he staggered and fell on Casey.
They fell on the floor with him being on top of her and their lips touched.
At the moment when their lips touched his vision became clear, his eyes went wide open when he saw her face close to him and their lips touching.
Casey's face turned red and her eyes were closed shut.
Lucas moved his hand to try and support himself so he could get up but he felt something soft under his hand.
'What is this? 'he asked inwardly as he instinctively pressed it.
Casey's eyes flew open and she placed her hand on his chest and pushed him gently so their lips could separate.
He looked down and saw his hand pressing one of the small bumps on Casey's chest.
When Casey felt his hand still in her chest even after their lips separated, she panicked and mistakenly activated her talent as she pushed him off.
"Get off me ! ". She shouted and because she accidentally activated her powers Lucas was sent flying.
