Conviction

Part 3: The Unknown Sister? Enter Cynthia

Darkness. Throbbing. Pain. No. This isn't pain. This is a strange numbness. Where am I? What's going on? I don't remember anything. Wait. Am I even awake? No. I'm... Dreaming? What's this light I see? Should I go to it? Maybe it's the way out of this darkness....

Jays conscience floated toward the light and then he came to. However. He had no idea where he was. This place.... Where and what is it? It seemed this place was a cave. And lava flowing down the walls illuminated the room. He was laying on a bed. With a plate of food next to him. I heard something move across the room. For some reason it seemed my reflexes were even more keener than before. Before I knew it. I was already across the room and grabbing the thing that turned out to be a person.

"It seems you've adapted quicker than I thought you would. Sadly. You have no control or clue of what you have." Those were the words Jay heard before he was flipped and slammed on the ground. Jay turned to look at the person to find out. It was a girl. A beautiful one at that. White angelic hair and light purple eyes. "Who are you?" Jay could barely sputter out.

"Sorry for the rather painful introduction Jay. My name is Cynthia. Your twin sister. Fraternal twins because we obviously look nothing alike. You're finally awake after three days huh? Do you always thrash in your sleep like that?" Cynthia asked. "What? You can't be my sister. My dad and mom swore I was an only child."

"Wrong. The moment I was born they realized then and there they were having two kids. And they chose for us to never be together because it would be too risky. So. They hid me from you for as long as they could. When our parents disappeared I had long gained control over my powers. And I ran away as well. Now. You are here. And now you shall know the truth about your parents." "The truth?" Jay asked. "What happened to our parents long ago? Where did they go? Are the dead?" Jason had so many questions and Cynthia knew the answers.

"Jay.... Our parents aren't dead. But they're being tortured as we speak. You see. The reason the parents disappeared was because if they would've stayed together any longer they both would've died." "Who was after them Cynthia?" Jay asked fearing the answer his sister might give him. "Demons. As well as Angels. You see Jay. Dad was an angel. And Mom was a Demon. Each with unique abilities. Demons and Angels are never supposed to be together, and as you can see they broke the rules. And they had us. When the time came. They gave their abilities and powers to us. They may seem like a tattoo or scar to an average person. But. That's the source of your power." Cynthia pulled up the sleeve on her right arm to show a tattoo that said "Hope" in Japanese. "The mark that you carry is conviction. One of the strongest demon abilities known. The ability to torment and destroy those who have done wrong. After they gave us these powers, mom and dad were forced to separate. However, both were captured. Mom is within the Angel Realm and Dads in the Demon Realm. They are both being tortured. But. What's worse than that. They are about to go to war. Demons and Angels have been plotting this. Trying to rid each other for so many years. Mom and Dad tried to stop this. And that's when they discovered what Mom and Dad had been doing. Jason. We must stop this war from happening. Or else the human world as well as both the realms with be destroyed entirely."

"Where can I start? I haven't mastered my powers like yours. I'm weak compared to you. Besides. What are my powers?"

"Look Jason. This won't be easy. But I can teach you. This place we are in. It slows down time. I can teach you everything you need to know in a year. A year in this special cave is just a few days to the human realm. Look. I need your help or else we will never get mom and dad back."

"It doesn't seem I have a choice. Let's start immediately." Jason said boldly. Cynthia smirked at his comment in a sassy yet serious way. "Okay then Jay Jay. Let's begin."

And now the vigorous training begins. What's in store for Jason and Cynthia?
