20 reasons to kill, one shadow - Dream x OC

Chapter 1 - Leaving

"Mag," shouted my older brother, chasing after me in the snow. I quickly looked behind me to see how far behind he was. Unconscious about what was going on in front of me, I fell to the ground, hurting myself on something sharp left in the deep layer of snow. "Ouch," I said quietly. I didn't want to bother Techno; he would usually get easily mad when I would get hurt, just like back when I was a kid.

"I've got you," he murmured in my right ear, his long pink hair falling on my shoulder. I pushed myself back on my feet. I looked at my right arm. I felt an acute pain, right where I had been cut. I looked down at the snow, blood on the white cover, a knife laying there. I took it with me and opened my clothes with the weapon. The cut in my arm was pretty large and deep. "What is this," said my brother, right behind me. He saw the cut and took out a tissue to stop the bleeding for the time being.

He dragged me back home. The bleeding had stopped during our way back. Once there he took out the medkit and bandaged my arm all the way to my hand. He couldn't stand and watch me get hurt. He took out of his ender chest an armor piece, looking like fists. They were mainly red, black, golden, and white. The red material of the fist made most of the base of the glove. A black piece of metal had been placed on the top and bottom of the piece covering the full hand on the top and half of it underneath. The fingertips were made of some black and gold metal, the gold metal covering the forefinger and thumb, the rest of the fingers being covered by this black metal. A cross made with this black metal was on the palm. Some strange-looking fume like energy kept floating away from the gloves. A shiny light rose and white material was on the edge of the glove forming some sort of sphere.

"This should protect your arms a bit more," he said, looking at me. I placed them on my hands; they felt a little bit too large for them to fit my hands, but instantly, as if it had heard my thoughts, the armor piece tightens. "..." I heard something whisper. "Domain of Sentience," said my brother. "It's an old weapon I found when I went scavenging for resources," I remembered some history classes I had with my dad when I was younger where they talked about old weapons. I remembered this weapon had the ability upon using the stamina of the user to stop everything in a field. Using it for long periods of time meant that the user would feel tired more often. 

"I recall that Dad told me it had more abilities than stopping everything. Do you remember," I asked Techno? He stopped whatever he was doing and turned to look at me. "I do remember it being able to create illusions. You have better stamina than me," he responded, also answering the second I had in mind, the reason to give such a powerful weapon to her.

A few days had passed since I got harmed in the snow. I was outside, trying to concentrate to unlock those powers of the fists. I looked at my hands and closed my eyes. Breathe. Everything is fine. You can do this. Today was a snowy day for me. I felt the snow falling on the skin that was exposed to melt under the heat of my body. Suddenly, I didn't feel those pieces of snow on my skin. I opened my eyes seeing the snowflakes frozen in the air. I had managed to do it. Let's try to stop it. The snowflakes around me started falling again. 

I continued to practice this ability for a few hours before I heard footsteps behind me. Techno was at my side. "Ready to show me," he said smiling. I concentrated my energy on the fists. The first sign of everything being frozen was the snowflakes. I turned to Techno; he was also frozen in place. I moved around to take a look. I realized that I, even within this field where everything was stopped, was still able to move. The field was really big. I quickly realized that the snow was still falling outside of this bubble. I looked at my brother and stopped sending my energy to the weapon.

"Wow," he said. "This surely is a strange feeling." He scratched the back of his neck and gave me the sign to go back home. The night was going to fall and it was better for the two of us to be inside our home rather than being outside. I untied my long white hair, letting it fall on my back. I looked at my brother as he did the same. I went inside my room, letting myself fall on the bed. I fell asleep before I could do anything else.
