Tales unbound

Charlize opened her eyes, they were deep crimson, as soon her eyes fell upon them, they felt their blood flow slow down as if they are being watched by a being much superior to them. In their minds her image overlapped with that of a giant Phoenix burning the entire universe into ashes.

This only lasted for a second before everything went back to normal. This is not good, said Charlie before he arrived behind Charlize in an instant, Noel and Priya did not even see him move. He started doing hand signs while chanting an incomprehensible chant.

Unbeknownst to everybody including the person in question, Priya started following and mimicking those hand movements, but she was still dormant human after all, no matter how close she was to breaking through she could not keep up with a second rank awakened movements, especially one who was close to breaking through to the high stage.

He pressed his hands on her back and the surrounding temperature started dropping, do you think it felt it? asked Dalena. I don't know, I placed a lot of formations around to prepare for this but it was much more powerful than I ever could've expected, I'm not certain they will be enough.

Should we leave, she asked, we will go somewhere else to hide, the only reason it hadn't come after us is because it feared Naledi, without her it will surely...you don't have to worry about that, said Anele.

Big sis aura still exist, it can act as deterrent, besides this is the associations territory, even big sis didn't want to mess with that old man, he's a very troublesome person to deal with, that thing won't act wantonly here.

You wrong, if it can provide benefits to them then it won't matter, they will allow it to do whatever it want as long it doesn't commit genocide said Charlie dejectedly. If I may intenject, they heard a soft but cold voice, I don't know what happening here but if you running from a powerful enemy then you don't need to worry, the association will act.

Why do you say that?asked Dalena, nobody can turn down massive benefits for us, not even the association. If they have a brain they will, she answered. Normally that would be true but an organisation like the awakened association is different, it dependent on trust of others, especially the weak.

It promised to protect awakeners from outside threat, that why people trust it, if it were to abonden one of their own, what do you think would happen? But we not members of the association, you are registered are you not? Yes we are but we have not joined the association no do we plan to, we not going to shackle ourselves.

You don't have to, there is a way for you to join with actually shackling yourself, join as a temporary outer member. That an option? Yes but it was designed for descendant on powerful organisation or people who don't want to shackle themselves.

People with your level of power, then why didn't we know about this? Can I borrow your laptop? She asked. Charlize went into her house and brought back a laptop. Priya started typing. You names, they told her and she typed them down.

No wonder you don't know, according to your registration you are only rank one middle stage and under no powerful organisation, of course they wouldn't bother informing you. You just need to re-register yourself and you'll be allowed to do it.

You have a familiar face, what your name girl? Asked Anele, the others raised their heads in curiosity. Priya.. Priya Gupta. No wonder you look so familiar, you probably that womans child, I heard she go married, pity what happened to her, it must've been hard on you child.

It okay, I've never met her anyways, Mmm I see, but do remember not to reveal your last name to strangers. thank you for your reminder big sister. Big sister? Yes yes that right,Ahahaha, laughed Anele. See you stupid brat, that how you address a woman. Yes grandma big sis.

You really need a spanking, I've once has a sparring match with your mother, one of the most frustrating fight I've ever had, it like she knew all my moves before I even thought of them, although she wasn't strong enough to beat me, there was nothing I could do to beat her either.

When you are about to breakthrough, you should come to me first, I might even be able to teach you how to fight like that woman. Thank you big sister, I will do as you say. Goodbye, she said as she went to her car and drove away. This brat might even be more intelligent than her mother.

While Charlize was breaking through, somewhere in a volcanic island in Asia, a giant birth with red and orange feathers was sleeping inside the volcano, it suddenly raised it head causing the volcano to erupt and the entire island to shake.

The primitive tribe living on the island prostrated themselves towards the volcano and started shouting begging for mercy, the lava, flaming rocks and ash that was on the air suddenly flew back as if time was reversed.

Amongst the tribe was a giant man standing as two and a half metres. Unlike most of the tribes people, he was kneeling but rather bowing slightly. This was the priest of the flame god which is what the tribes people call the giant bird.

The man suddenly heard a voice in his head, and a two metres long feather flew towards him and he caught it, he bowed even lower before turning around, in a few seconds he has already crossed the 35 kilometres between him the seashore, he climbed on wooden raft crafted from blood red wood that even harder than steel.

The boat released flames from it rear, propelling itself forward at tremendous speed. You who have angered my lord deserve to suffer a thousand deaths and I loyal priest of the flames God will trample all obstruction to have your head. I swear it on my name VULCAAAAAN
