Authors POV

As Amelia charged the ball of energy to Henry, the alarm beeped. Red lights flashing in the room they were in.

Kyree spoke into his earpiece and created a green flame in the palm of his hands throwing them at Henry and his soldiers. They had green magical flame like chains around their wrists and ankles.

"It won't last long but we'll have time." Kyree said, pulling Amelia by her arms out the door and into the hallway.

It seemed as if the guards have doubled in size. They weren't your normal guards that we thought that were. They were Henry's Mutant Soldiers. We heard something break in the room we were in and out came the mutant soldiers with black mist covering their entire bodies.

They are controlled by Henry.

Kyree began throwing green flames at the mutants but they seemed to not do any harm to them.

"We're gonna fucking die!" Amelia shouted in frustration that the one time she needed her powers they didn't work. Kyree was behind her still throwing flames in the mutants direction, they were working because the mutants were slowly decreasing in size and were going slower.

"Amelia, do something!" Kyree shouted, partly angry that he was doing all the work instead and Amelia was just standing there frozen in spot.

Amelia stood staring at her hands in hopes that something would happen. She felt a burning sensation in her eyes.

It's working. She thought to herself.

Just a little bit more and maybe I'll be able to do this.

Amelia pressed her hands together, closing her eyes. She sucked in a deep breath opening her hands, a ball of energy brighter than her eyes formed between her hands.

She looked up at the mutants who were waiting for her to strike with an unreadable expression on her face.

She could do this and she knew it.

Amelia swirled her hands around making the ball of energy in her hands grow bigger, electric particles zapping in-between her fingers. Amelia knew the consequence that came with using her powers. She would probably burn the Emeradian Palace down if she used her power to her might and she will not be happy, but the more she saw improvement in Amelia's power she might just want to take her in.

With Amelia's career seeming to be taking off, she wouldn't loose the chance of being what she has dreamt of, she'd have to decline her offer.

Amelia used both of her hands to release her power onto the mutants.

They groaned in pain and shook at the electricity that burned onto their unhuman like skin.

A cry of agony ripped through the all the chaos, alarming Amelia.

Kyree.

She whipped her head around in Kyree's direction, a gasp leaving her lips as she fell to the ground in exhaustion gripping at her head.

Kyree's body was floating in the air with black mist covering his whole body. Henry's arm was outstretched, swirling in magical movements. It seemed as if he was sucking Kyree's power into his obsidian ring.

Only royal individuals from the Omen Realm had the ability to steal someone's power with the curse of The Soul Binder. So maybe Henry was related to The Soul Binder that had died centuries ago and was using the power his ring provided him and the curse of the Soul Binder to take Kyree's power, unless he stole that obsidian ring..?

I had a feeling Henry was powerless without his ring because something in him screamed vulnerable if he lost the ring or if I took it.

Kyree groaned in pain, his sharp jaw set and his arms and legs were both frozen. He was trying to ball his hand in a fist to use his power but Henry was over powering him. Amelia knew she had to step in, but she was already drained and a pounding headache was slowing her down. If she used the last bits of her energy now she could die or pass out, but if Kyree would die she would blame herself for it.

A gun lay unoccupied next to Amelia. It wasn't your average gun, it was the gun that supernatural beings inserted their magical rings in weather you are a female or male but it mainly worked best with the men's rings.

The supernatural realms were very much sexist in the 1800 and still are, because most of their weapons are wielded by men and not females. According to Lord Imeria back in the day, women were valuable for breeding purposes and each house had to have 3 or more males so that one could have a power great to empower their family. Better yet if a family that had 3 sons and all 3 of them had powers, they were to be chosen as the Kings Royal Guards and their families wouldn't live as peasants anymore like the rest.

Thank goodness Amelia wasn't born at that time.

Amelia ripped the necklace off of her neck and inserted it in the hole on the top half of the gun, aiming it at Henry. The necklace clicked as it sat in place, it had a faint glow to it. She was using up all her energy.

She aimed at Henry and pressed the trigger. The bullets that came out were all covered in Amethyst in Henry's direction.

In one swift motion a obsidian wall appeared in front of Henry blocking Amelia's bullets.

Henry slowly turned his head towards Amelia, dropping Kyree in the process, his is body laying limp on the floor.

Was he dead..?

Amelia looked hopelessly at Kyree's body, tears threatening to fall if she blinked.

Henry had a pleased look on his face as he started walking in Amelia's direction. Amelia struggled to take her necklace out of the gun as Henry started to walk faster.

Gripping the necklace in her hand she slowly stood facing Henry. She felt pain in her stomach and as she looked down, a onyx knife lodged in her stomach.

She grunted in pain as she struggled to keep herself standing.

Leaning on Henry while gripping the Amethyst necklace, Amelia slowly lifted her head to look Henry dead in the eyes.

"You'll regret this." She whispered and at that Henry harshly pulled the knife out gripping the Amethyst Necklace out of Amelia's hands as her body fell to the floor with a thud.
