Lost Power

Chapter V - Normal to Magical

Picture of the Magical Gifts Dylan received during his birthday from his family and friends.

Dylan POV

The weeks went by but GOD! It is so exhausting. I train every day after school. Jean mostly helped me with my physical ability. We fight in hand on hand combat and she knocked my ass down every time. From my thin body, I was able to gain some muscles. Little abs showing on my stomach. My biceps and legs starts growing and surely cuts in my muscles are visible. I get bruised and wounded every now and then but my mom always heals me after the training.

Max taught me how to use my elemental power. He uses a more dominant element to deflect the one I am using. Like fire against water, water versus lightning, lightning against earth, etc... We also trained how to utilized him in changing form. I transformed him to a lion, large eagle or even to a Griffin. The first few attempts it almost exhaust my powers but after sometime, I was able to control it and make the transformation longer.

My mom taught me how to master my spells and mastering my flying and telekinesis ability. We practice healing a lot because that is what she specialized in. After couple of training a was able to heal myself. I was able to complete my training in concealing both my auras and show it as I will it to happen. That is the first thing I actually mastered due to the fact that there is a vampire that saw me weeks ago.

Three weeks remaining before the school year ends. I become more and more excited transferring magic school and starts to wonder how my life will change. I'm a little bit scared but it's more of excitement.

I went by with my daily routine and went to school. Walking on the corridor, a smelled the scent of the wolf and I know that it is Jean. I'm by my locker putting and getting things. I waited for Jean to surprise me knowing that it won't work because I can smell her. But no one approached me. I looked around searching for Jean but she is nowhere to be found. Then my sight caught a boy holding a basketball talking to his friends who are wearing the same jacket as he is. He is a jock with brown hair. Though he was wearing a jacket and white t-shirt inside, you can tell that he has a fit body the way how his muscles traced through his clothes. I think they are the varsity of the basketball team. I'm sure that he is a werewolf because of his faded green aura. I think he is trying to hide it but he is not too successful in doing it. He sniffed and looked around. I diverted my eyes on my locker and quickly close it. I rush towards my class. I know and I fell that he is looking at me. I didn't dare to look back and made sure that both my auras are completely hidden.

My mind kept floating about what happen earlier. I'm wondering who he is. I never saw him at school until now. Well maybe because I never had my abilities until lately and this is a big school after all. I must talk to Jean and ask her if she knows any other werewolf aside from her who attends this school. I cant be sure if he is good or evil due to the fact the he can hide his aura.

I never saw Jean and Max at school today. My last period is PE and it is the finals. Good thing that it is swimming which is my only favorite sport. I'm sure that I will be passing with flying colors. I went to the shower room to change my outfit. I made sure that there is no one in the room before I decided to change, I'm not too comfortable in showing my body but since wearing trunks is required, I really dont have any choice. Good thing I have a decent body now than before.

I went out and saw that the whole pool gym is half packed with students. I wrapped my towel around my shoulder to cover my body. I and I can feel the people around looking at me. I sat down and patiently wait for our class to be called. I watching the students competing against each other for high grades.

Then suddenly the scent of pine trees appeared again and I snapped my head towards the school gym entrance. Leaning on the wall is the same boy I saw early this morning and he staring at me. We looked at each other for a moment and I broke the stare when I heard my name being call by the teacher.
