Deception

This Was Going To Be Fun

"Before we try this I need to teach you to channel you're energy. Or using it can go very wrong" Kirah warned.

He straightened them clasped his hands together like he was praying but his hands were tightly clenched around each other.

"For beginners, you need to focus on a part of your body to bring your magic through, I recommend your hands. You'll eventually be able to channel you're magic without needing to focus on anything and it'll come naturally"

He closed his eyes, as soon as he did Stiles watched amazed as his magic sparked into life, mostly purple and a tinge of dark blue. It twisted around his hands like a snake but it's form looked more like fire than anything else.

As soon as he enclasped his hands the snake like magic vanished without a sound.

"Now, you try" Kirah said.

Stiles nodded, copying his posture from before and closing his eyes.

"Concentrate on that warmth inside and lead it up into your arms and into your hands then let it flow" Kirah said gently, stepping closer to Stiles.

He could easily feel the warmth, okay so he needed to go into his hands so-

Kirah suddenly jumped back, eyes widening.

BANG.

Stiles was thrown of his feet. He hit the floor hard, wincing. He gasped in pain, his hands felt like they where burning.

"What..." He groaned, stumbling up wards.

"And that is why you won't be aloud to do any magic until I can teach you how to control it" Kirah chuckled, stepping closer.

Stiles stared at the ground, there was now a sizeable burnt mark where he'd been standing.

"That-that was me?" Stiles said, eyes widening, wringing his hands together nervously, glancing down at them.

"Relax, you didn't expect to get it straight away? It'll take a couple of tries. You're energy's not used to being used, that's all"

Stiles let out a wary breath "Okay"

He tried three times more and the exact same thing happened.

"Why does it keep exploding in my face!" Stiles growled, glaring at his hands accusingly as he stumbled upwards, getting frustrated.

"It could be you're a little stronger than normal or it could be you seemed to bs crap at focusing properly. Or it could be a little bit of both"

"Focus" Stiles muttered, cringing.

Yeah his focus wasn't that great on a good day, he'd been amazed at how easily so far it had been easy for him to keep up with everything going on around him...so far.

He tried two more times, concentrating even more.

But all that seemed to do was make the explosion hurl him of his feet more. Stiles cursed angrily. This is what he'd suffered for?

Kirah also looked confused that he wasn't getting this but then a realisation seem to come to his expression. He clicked his fingers, getting Stiles attention.

"What if we're going about this the wrong way?"

Stiles frowned.
