Ben felt the energy, crackling at his fingertips, making his arm burn. It felt like a spreading fire, but also like a liquid metal running down his arm from his shoulder. Like armour and a weapon at the same time. A smile slowly grew on his face, and he raised his head towards the small barn in front of him.
Mason observed the glowing in bens arm, as it got brighter and spread across him. "Go on, release it, let's see what you can do." He spoke to him with encouragement, excited to find out ben's abilities.
It felt so strange, like he knew how to control it without actually knowing. He pushed all of the energy into his hand, which was now throbbing a bright white. Finally, he let go, feeling an excruciating pain in his right hand for an instant, before it evaporated quickly. Huge streams of energy left his hand, bright white beams, cutting through the wooden barn like butter. He was struggling to control it, the energy flaring in different directions, scorching the grass, shooting up into the sky. After a matter of seconds however, he felt it die down. The energy faded, and he collapsed to his knees. Looking up, he observed the barn, or what was left of it. He had completely obliterated the barn, as if it had just melted into the ground.
Mason laughed, shocked at the level of power he had just observed. "That was fucking awesome."
