Choice Series 1 : The Lavablood's Choice

05-⋇Ara and Luna ⋇

The crater at the Hawaiian island

As soon as Ara landed, a man with a golden fire badge stepped up at the arriving and smiled at him.

"Phoenix?"

Ara nodded when the man said his code name. It means that this was the pick-up man the general said in the firecomm half an hour ago.

"Your father asked me to bring you to him"

"Where is my old man?"

"At the nearest volcano Sir."

Ara nodded. "Of course"

He brought him to a jeep nearby and soon they were on the road. After several failed attempts to strike a further conversation without getting a yes-no answer, Ara gave up and try to enjoy the road.

As they arrived at the feet of Kilauea a general greet them. After a short talk, the general gave him a diesel jetpack and Ara slapped them to his body. Soon he zoomed out from sight and land at the side of the crater.

Sitting on the hardened Lava, Ara looked around. From constant eruption since 1983, for miles and miles around, everything is black. Every single piece of land, every single tree, every blade of grass burned. A bit under his feet, a steep slope went down straight to the lava lake. The red and black crackle was calm at the moment, but he knew that it could change every second. He moved his finger and the lava down there jumped a bit.

Tilting his head he grinned. "Whoa, I thought that would never work". His finger moved once more, playing with the substance once more, more and more interested at how his power would work at that distance.

At that moment, on the middle of the Lava lake, a small dome grew, as the dome popped, his father burst, riding his soul dragon that looked tired and ill. They walked up to the crater to his place and as he sat on a big stone beside his son, the lizard dissolved.

Ara knelt in front of him. "Father, you called me?"

He massaged his neck and opened his eyes. "Ara, ara..." He sighed and smiled. "I never thought that someone with a normal human mother would be as strong as you" His eyes filled with warmness, something that impossibly showed anywhere else. "You are amazing. How is school? Enjoy your flight?" He reached out his hand and stroked the boy's head.

Ara smiled and let him. "Nice Father, the newest plane was super fast. And School was okay. How are you?"

"Good. I have a mission for you"

"I am ready Father" The boy sensed the love in his voice, something that he gratefully accepted. The King stroked his head once more.

"You know, after the holy war, I supposedly gain more power right?"

"Yes Father, because the soul will be greater from the purification."

"True, but it didn't happen to me"

The teen raised his head. "Why?"

Magma took a deep breath and blew it tiredly. "I guess because we haven't caught the heir of the throne, so the Lava God hasn't given us that blessing" His hand still stroking the red and black hair of his son, couldn't understand the reason why that son with that kind of hair can have a power that strong.

"I see"

His father smiled. "So that is the mission for you."

"I am ready, father."

The father smiled once more "Good."

"Who will be working with me?"

"C1 troops. They are still working with the Sagittarius Knight mission."
