Her Neighbor the Maestro

the process begins (this is a long chapter)

Michael point of view

I see Elizabeth drop to her knees in pain and run to her side. "Liz, we need to stop and make camp you're in no condition to keep going right now," I suggested in concern letting her lean on me for support. "No, I can't stop I need to-" before she could say another word I saw her grimace as I saw her aura glow around her. "You need to rest," I told her while materializing a fully stocked tent for us. "Michael... I can't stop now the Dragons Eye is close!" She panted holding my hand tightly. "It will be there but right now you need to rest." I urged carrying her in my arms into the tent.

Elizabeth's point of view

He's right I do need to rest I feel so much pressure all over my body and it hurts like hell right now, then I felt a small bit leave me. "This is the first step of your rebirth. Now breathe let your energy build you will survive this." I heard a familiar voice in my mind say as I clutched Michaels' hand. I started breathing "I feel my so much pressure all over my body....so much... ah, this hurts I can't hold it anymore." I panted while my voice is breaking. "Expel it now!" Alexstrasa told me then I take a deep breath held it and expelled as much energy as I could with a scream of burning pain coursed through but the pressure I felt all over my body reduced somewhat but I still feel a lot of energy inside me. "Elizabeth whatever you are doing keep going" Michael urged but I felt physically exhausted. "I have to breathe but I feel that energy is building inside me and it's getting stronger," I replied closing my eyes and breathing despite how badly hurt to do but I had to. "Okay rest a minute catch your breath." Michael held me close swaying slowly. I felt Michaels using his power to relax the pain across my body which helped some, but unfortunately, I felt that burning pressure slowly building inside me worsening the pain as the energy felt stronger and more intense. "I don't know if I can keep this up much longer...damn this hurts." I panted while holding Michael for support. "Yes, you can Elizabeth, I'm not going to leave you, no matter what." He replied in a voice that helped me relax and focus right when needed it most. "I don't want you to Michael." was all I could mutter, focusing on my breathing, then I felt that pressure building throughout my body again and the pain worsen to beyond anything I felt before. I cried out clutching Michael as tight as I could trying to let as much energy build as I could to attempt to expel it all in one shot. "Elizabeth the energy you are building is too much. You need to release it now" Michael warned me, but I just kept breathing and letting it build. "Not yet, Michael, I can still feel the energy growing. I know what I must do but you need to drop the tent and stand back because when I let this out because it's going to get hot." I forewarned as Michael looked at me like I was nuts. "Elizabeth are you sure?" he questions me looking worried, to be honest, I"m not sure if this will work but I have to try something. "Drop the tent now, trust me," I assured him looking in his eyes sure of what I am doing, but I hope it's going to work. I opened my wings flew up from a safe distance away from anything that will burn. "Okay Elizabeth, you can do this focus and breathe through the pain." I thought as my body was racked with pain while the intense energy built inside me, but I didn't feel that pressure from inside yet. I decided to breathe deep through my nose and out my mouth. That was when I felt it on my hands and I take a deep holding it while channeling the growing energy inside, and I release it along with my held breath. I had no idea I held it in this long it felt exhilarating to finally let it go and release it. Then it disappeared, and I felt so much lighter and light headed. "Thank you!" I murmured before blacking out.

Nefarian point of view

My followers on the outside were starting a spell to open the door of my lonely prison cell when I sensed a strong resonance of energy. I looked at the crystal to my sweat covered sister deep in concentration and breathing. Then she released it like she was channeling it. of course, my sister's rebirth has started. I thought to myself seeing the doors open then seconds closed. "Master I'm sorry he didn't have enough energy to hold it open. Plus, there's a surge of energy is interfering with the spell." Sylvanas confessed looking down in shame. "It's alright my dear I am a very patient man," I assured her with a smile keeping my eyes on my sister as her aura glowed. "I'm very sorry master, but this is our chance to strike the girl now, her physical form has weakened dramatically from the rebirth." Sylvanas reasoned out of frustration trying to get me to listen. "I am aware of this, but you must look beyond what you see and be patient. I am most curious about, is how she holds so much power and survive." I preached looking at the exasperated girl.
