"I have bad feelings with this! Let's get out of here." I carried the boy.
"Wait, I'll get my book!" said the boy.
I got the book for him. The mother pull their shabby carpet and reveal a secret door. But it's too late, the villagers broke the door. I stopped them it by putting a paper with protective runes.
"Go, Helen! Go! Take him. I'm fine here."
But I didn't notice that the boy is still here.He is sitting in the chair with angry face and the things on the house is floating. I got his book from the air and read it. I saw excellent spells on it so I hid it on my pocket for him. I hide myself. The boy may kill me if he saw me in this state.
The villagers broke the the protective spell and saw the child. They threw pitchforks to him but it suspend in the air. Eventually, it bounce back to them but none of them are harmed.
"Get the evil kid!"They attempted to take him but they flew like a toy tossed in the air.
The boy made them choke by summoning roots from the Earth. I came out.
"Please, Leo, wake up!" I said. "Get out of here."
But he just tossed me and hit the wall. I don't give up. I will help him control his emotions and power. Turmoil starts. The thin air became tornado. I hold everything floats just to go where he is. He is in the center of the tornado. To remind him, I stared to him eye to eye. I remind him who we are in the past. He is my teacher and I'm his student. But I felt that he became my father figure in the past life.
Suddenly, the tornado became weak and gentle. The things slowly went to the ground. The villagers are still entangled.
"What we will do to them?" he said.
He holds my hand like I am his older brother.
"Let them be." I answered.
"So be it." he replied.
We followed the mother to the tunnel.We are far from the village. We just gazed their house from the distant place.
"Where we are live now?" asked the mother.
"I know a good place to live." I answered.
Hours later, we went to my dormitory. There is a vacant room beside my abode.
"Don't worry, Helen. I will pay the rent for you."
"Thank you. I will pay someday if I find a job here."
"You're welcome. Leo, if I have a chance, I will train you to control your powers. Now, I need to back to work."
"Please train me if you have free time." said the boy.
"Of course, I will train you."
I patted the boy's head and went away. I heard his mom is coughing and felt her son was worried about her.
