Finn H. POV: 

The Weeks Seemed To Fly Past Until The Big Day. The Day That My Boy, My Son, My Kid Is Leaving My Home To Start His Own. The Kid I Met Because Of Luck. The Shy Little Girl With A Kind Heart And Sweet Smile That I Consider My Own Child. The Girl Who Brought Me And My High School Sweetheart Back Together. The Girl Who Is Now My Son. I Couldn't Be A More Proud Father. He Does Everything I Ask For, His Grades Are Stellar, He's Caring And Kind And He Loves Me And Kira As If We Were His Real Parents. I Love Him More Then Anything Else. Nothing Will Change That. Ever. A Week Passed After His Engagement When I Took Him To My Shop And Measured Him To Start Making His Suit. I Made All Of His Clothes, Stitching His Name In The Collar Of His Shirts, Making Patterns, Adding In Fun Details. Kai Has Always Loved These Tiny Additions. He Always Wants These Tiny Additions. I Enjoy Adding Them In For Him. Anything To Make That Kid Happy. I Measured Him And Tried To Choose Which Materials He'd Like. Satin Or Silk? In The End, We Chose Cotton For His Button-Up Shirt, Satin For His Waistcoat, Silk For His Pants And Linen For His Blazer. Kira, Himari, Hayato And I Needed To Figure Out Where The Venue Would Be, Along With The Napkins, Appetisers, Etc. Hiro And Me Went To A Local Cake Shop To Try Some Options. I Liked Him; He Was Very Different From When He Was Twelve, Now He Was Twenty And More Mature. He Had Certainly Looked Very Different Back Then Indeed. "You Did An Apprenticeship In Vietnam? Wow, Big Change To Go From The US To Somewhere Like That," I Marvelled, Wondering How He Coped. "Yeah, My Mom's Relatives Let Me Stay At Their Place And I Wanted A Change Of Scenery,". I Could Tell There Was More To It Then That, But I Didn't Pry. We Ended Up With A Three-Tiered Fruit And Marzipan Cake. I Found Kai In The Annex Of My Studio, Which I Use For Potion Making. The Brew In The Cauldron Smelled Like Peppermints. "Not Another Mouse Potion Kai, Your Mother Spent All Day Standing On The Couch And Screaming When You Tried To Get Near Her," I Said, Shuddering At The Memory Of Kai As A Grey Mouse. "Dad I'm Not Mental. No, This Is For Lance, I Want To See If I Can Bring Out His Possible Powers,". I Bit My Lip. Lance Showing His Powers Was Something We'd All Been Anticipating. He Knew Not To Tell Anybody The Truth And Waited For Days To See If His Powers Would Start Working. If He Was To End Up A Demon Like Me, Who Knows What Trouble He'd Get Into. He'd Be Hunted By All Sorts Of Beasts. The Kindly Ones Might Even Catch Up To Him. I See Altheda, Kai's 'Cat', Chewing Chicken From Her Purple Bowl. She's A Grey Colour, With a White Patch On Her Left Eye, Dark Green Eyes That See All And A Teal And Green Butterfly Bow On One Of Her Ears. Don't Be Fooled By Her Seemingly Normal Appearance Though. Altheda Is Not A Kitty Cat. She's A Dragon. A Powerful Nature Dragon Kai Brought Home Which Can Change From Tiny To Huge By Will. Of Course, Kira Refused Until Kai Promised Not To Have Her In Her Dragon Form At Home Or Outside Wonderland At All. As A Dragon, She Has Green Scales, Teal Wings, White Horns, Another Pair Of Wings Next To Her Ears Except Their Black, The Same Green Eyes Except With Strange Pupils. Shaped As Pointed Diamonds, Her Left Pupil Is Black, The Right One White. She Does Breath Fire, However It's Bright Green. She Has To Be The Most Powerful Dragon I've Ever Met. She's A Relatively Nice Cat, Though She Clearly Hates My Cousin, Lucas. Though, I Hate Him Quite A Lot, So Maybe That's Why, My Energy Around Him Rubs Off On Her. I Give Her A Pat On Her Head And Pour In A Bottle Of Camile Juice In The Cauldron, Hoping That It's Minerals Of Affection In The Liquid Will Draw Lance's Long Anticipated Powers Out. I Think About Kai's Magical Outbursts To Normal Humans. He Had To Be Around A Little Bit Older Then Twelve When The Most Powerful One Happened. A Young Man From His School, Mr Lloyd I Believe, Had Taken His Mask With His Friends, Commenting On His Injury, Throwing His Hat Aside. I Was Curious When Kai Told Me About It And Saw A Re-enactment Of The Event In The Mirror. "You Miscreant!" He Yelled At Lloyd, His Eyes Brimming With Furious Tears, The Anger Shining On His Expression. The Five Or Six Boys Laughed And Then All Of A Sudden A Thorny Vine, Bright Green With Crimson Roses, Strangled Lloyd From Behind, Making Him Scream In Agony, His Neck Bleeding Black And Blue. His Friends Called Out In Fear And Suddenly They Were Engulfed In The Vines, Too. It Was A Horrific Sight, So Horrific In Fact That I Needed Popcorn, And I Don't Even Like It At The Best Of Times. Kira Was Distraught At Me Eating Popcorn At Such A Gruesome Sight, But No Matter What My Sons Do, I Shall Encourage Them, As Long As They Have A Good Reason. Including Nearly Murdering A Group Of Bullies. Kira Was Horrified (Obviously) When We Went To The School To Pick Him Up And Found Out That He Had Supposedly Done Some Murder Attempt To A Group Of 'Innocent Boys'. Kai Luckily Had Enough Sense To Wipe The Camera Footage. I Couldn't Help But Worry About His Marriage To Hiro While He Stares Into The Bubbling Brew. It Smelt Heavenly, Something I Can Rarely Say, Seeing As I Visited Heaven Once. I Grabbed An Empty Vial Off The Shelf And Scooped A Heaping Portion. I Screwed The Cork On And Placed It On The Table. "So...How Do You Feel?" I Asked Him. He Stayed Silent. "Dad I'm So Going To Fuck This Up," He Mumbles, Head In His Hands. "You Won't Know That. Hiro Is Clearly Obsessed With You Already. I Saw The Look In His Eyes As You Two Danced. Cupid Made Him Get Bit By The Love Bug," I Joked. He Responded With A Weak Smile And A Teary Chuckle, The Tears Spilling. He Wipes His Nose On The Back Of His Hand. We Drove Home In Silence. At Dinner That Night, We All Sat At The Table While Lance Nervously Drank It. Nothing For A Full Minute. He Passes Out In His Seat, A New Shiny Golden Glow Seeming To Emerge From Him. "There Is Nothing I Can Do Kira, For The Last Time," I Said For The Tenth Time As We Closed The Door On Him, Fast Asleep In His Room. She Nibbles Her Nails, Still Unsure. "Mum, If We Could Do Anything, We Would, You Know This Better Then Anybody Else. So Quit Nibbling On Your Manicure, You Know Your Stylist Is Going To Kill You," Kai Says, Rolling His Eyes. Magic Is A Strange Thing When Your Not Immortal. It Can Do One Thing Only, Behind It's Disguise. Drive People To Insanity. It Will Never Truly Be Useful Because It Has Limits. Unlike Other Things With Limits That Are Very Useful. Example, A Box Of Cereal. Easy Meal, Not Too Much Sugar, Cheap Thing To Quickly Eat In The Morning. The Limits Of It Is The Fact That It Doesn't Come With The Milk Or It Doesn't Taste Good To Some People. But It's Still Useful. Magic Cannot Do This. It Is Useless But Those Who Possess It Use It At Least Once A Day. Why? It's Highly Addictive, Worse Then Alcohol, Smoking, Vaping, Drugs, Etc. I Was Once Addicted To All Of These, But It Was Nothing Like Magic Addiction. You Can Never Escape Magic Addiction. The Alcohol And Drugs Are Awful, You Can't Deny It. But Using Them Makes You Feel Happier. Magic Does That But You Never Feel Or See The Real 'Awful' Of It. Never Ever Use Magic If You Can. You'll Be Addicted And Most People Don't Realise When It's Magic. And The Few Who Do Mainly Deny It. Never Fall Into Magic's Trap. Ever. Making Magic Control You Ultimately Leads To A Loss Of Power. Power Is The Dominance, Hand In Hand With Fear.
