Nigga Lamp - Remastered

Chapter 15 - The Light Within

"here, can one of you fellas take over"

"Sure thing. Get out here with me Paddy."

"wha?"

"My Paddy, idiot."

"jaysus"

Paddy got into the back, while the other two took over looking after the horses. There was no skill required, the horses most likely knew the road they were on more than them. Only 2 days until they got back, which was going to feel like ages.

Paddy sat down playing with his lamp to kill the time, throwing it up and down. Amy sat near him, looking for a conversation that never came. Suddenly, the horses halted without any warning.

"lads, what is after happening?"

"i dont know lad"

"Yeah, they just stopped for no reason. As soon as we got to the entrance of this forest, they stopped. Go on, will yous?!"

The horses would not budge.

"Ah, come on. My Paddy, come with me, let's go check this out."

"right"

The two of them equipped gear to deal with the snowy environment, while Paddy and Amy were made to guard the carriage alongside the horses.

"so, any boyfriends miss?"

"No, I've lived pretty much the only adolescent in the village."

"ok. ya like football..?"

"Hm, what is that?"

"shhhhhh..."

The two listened in silence as they heard footsteps outside.

"you stay here miss"

"Okay... Okay sir!"

"shhhhhhhhhhhhh"

"oh yeah, okay sir."

Paddy hopped out of the carriage, looking around his environment. It was just nearly dark outside. He looked around the entire carriage, but there was nothing.

"miss, i think its grand like-"

BANG

Paddy was thrown into a tree.

"ah... fuckkkkkkkk... me back"

He pulled out his card and tried to use his spells, but nothing was happening. He teleported the lamp to him as well, but nothing would happen.

"Another magic user trying to fall back upon their no brainer spells? Pathetic."

A hooded figure appeared before him.

"ah lad, if ya want money just ask like"

"I do not want your filthy money. I must wipe out all you puny magic users with my pure strength and skill alone."

This guy was definitely in some sort of cult. Even with the cloak hiding him, you could tell he was built like some sort of god like figure.

"lad will ya calm down for two seconds-"

The man ran over and punched Paddy straight through the tree into a pile of snow.

"Still awake, hmph?"

Paddy's vision was starting to go blurry, if he passed out here, unlike the goblins from days ago, he would surely be done for.

"Paddy."

A voice called out from nowhere.

"Paddy... close your eyes..."

He blinked once, and appeared before his lamp. A cord came out from the lamp and stopped just before him.

"I did not want to intervene just yet, but it would seem I have no choice. If you want to live, take my plug, Patrick."

"are ya god again are ya?"

"No. My identity is not important for now. If you want to beat this force, take my plug in front of you."

"fair so."

"Done already? You magic users are quite easy to deal with all by yourselves."

The man turned around to walk away, but felt something uneasy about his situation. This old man couldn't have been that easy, right?

PUNCH

The man unaware to the oncoming threat behind him, was punched through several trees, before being stopped by a large rock, splitting it in two from stopping his motion.

"60 seconds. The power I put into your right arm isn't as easily controlled as your other powers. It's my full original power. Pure. Unfiltered. Light."

"ah lad, me body feels much better."

"As soon as it hits that 60 second mark Paddy, please clap your hands."

"uh yeah no bother. let me beat this fella first"

Paddy walked over to him, the man obviously struggling to get up.

"What?!?! That's not fair.. It's not fair!!! Replacing muscles with magic, it's cheating!"

"ah here, sure you came at me like fella"

"Shut up. I'll have you done in quickly."

"ya will, will ya?"

The man got up and instantly bolted at Paddy with his fists, he countered it by blocking with his newfound light arm, a bright yellow colour.

"Paddy. 20 seconds. Your body can't handle it for more than that. You're old enough, I don't know what the effect will be for you."

"itll be grand sure"

"What??"

"not you."

Paddy used his other arm to uppercut the man, but it had barely any effect on him at all.

"Ha. Your real body isn't even comparable to mine!"

He grabbed Paddy's weak arm, and threw him over his shoulder.

"ah fuck lad, im not able for this shite."

"10 seconds."

"i know, i know"

Paddy got up and barely dodged the man's next attack, instead delivering his fist into the man's stomach, sending him back a little bit.

"Your phony magic powers getting weak, huh? And here I thought it was getting fun."

"ah lad, not my fault youre built like a shed"

"Stop!"

"ah here, whatdoyacallyourself... amy, i told ya to wait miss"

"I couldn't watch this happen to you, Paddy."

"Another one? Oh, I'll enjoy my time with you young lady. Let me finish off your papa first, ha."

"One second"

"ah, shiiiiii-"

Before he could continue his sentence, his whole body was enveloped in light.
