Chapter 7
Six months has past, full of fighting a training with my father, learning ground tactics, fight control, and how to use both of them at once. My speed and strength, my stamina and awareness, my evasiveness and speed, I feel like I can take on anyone. I've even learned how to control my angel abilities, the ones I have anyways, he still won't teach me anything, nor will he show me any of his abilities. The weeping angel that my father is has put me through everything he could teach me, he says he's never seen anyone rank a Renegade as fast as I have, he also says I'm the strongest Renegade he's ever fought and trained.
"You learn quick, I like that." Kenny says proudly.
"Thanks." I say sarcastically. I'm still really mad at him.
I've been beaten, smashed, broken, cut, scratched, bruised, and taken to my very limit, then, I was forced to go beyond that.
"Alright son, you get a weeks worth of rest, I need you at your strongest for the next lesson, it very important that you eat right." Kenny explains
For a whole week, I'm sleeping in my first ever full size bed. It's a little stiff, but just the way I like it. My week consists of watching a TV show called supernatural, who knew I could watch three seasons in just one week, 5, 6, and 7. For I had already seen the previous seasons. Castiel is my favorite character, he's an angel so he's automatically cool, plus he's a good guy, and he's got a great name. This also happens to be my fathers favorite show, he won't admit it, but I know it is. All I've been eating is lots of fruits and veggies, blueberries are my favorite. I didn't know they even existed until this week. Brussels sprouts, asparagus, mmmmm, strawberries on my salad. Not that crappy school salad either. I don't really know how to describe it, but damn, I can feel it pushing energy into my body. Breakfast consists of lots of proteins, eggs, sausage, ham, Ewww, and some kind of nasty healthy biscuits and gravy, but it's supposed to be good for you. I still can't get Gabby out of my head. I haven't been able to stop thinking about her.
"Your week is up, let's go!" My father demands.
I'm hesitant, butt extremely pumped up for today.
"What are we going to learn today?" I ask curiously.
"Element Control. Lesson one. Like me, I can possess lightning, which comes with the sound of thunder. You on the other hand, I have no idea what your element is, that is, if you even possess one. Not every angel can. This takes mostly mental practice, and can lead to serious injury if you don't know what you're doing. For that reason, is why I'm going to show you.
My father begins to hold is hands out in front of him at a downward angle, I can cense him forcing all the strength and energy he has into the palms of his hands; blueish purple lightning shoots to the sky. It happened so fast that it ended the moment it started.
"That was your demonstration?" I ask curiously.
Now the first thing you need to do is to stay completely calm and have as much energy as possible. Then you just focus.
"Focus on what?"
"Focus on this. It's an angel rock, it will show you what your power is, but before you do that, focus on your hand and try to force some of your energy into your palms like I just did."
After he demonstrates one more time my father then tosses the rock to me and the second my hand touched it, this ferocious wave of energy is sent across the ground for miles. I've never felt such an amount of energy before in my life. I look up at my father, only to his face, as if shocked, amazed.
"This is what I was afraid of, we need to leave, NOW!!" My father angrily demands.
"What's going on, why?" I'm curious, but I get no answer, just silence. We only try to flee the area, flying as fast as we can, but when I turn around my father is gone. So I stop in this empty field. The wind then begins to pick up and the tree begins to shake. I start to hear these voice, but I can't clearly hear what's being said. I hear this loud screech, one coming from both directions. They're both getting louder and louder, but what's it coming from. What felt like an explosion, and looked like one from the very corner of my left eye. Two bodies collided, both striking the ground with such force it felt like a bomb went off. Shock waves so strong it throws me off balance sending me to the ground. When I look up I see my father and another man.
The man seems to look like an angel, but why does it seem like they are fighting? What could he, or it, be? I think to myself.
When I look down, it looks as if the earth around us had been wasted away. I've never seen such a crater..
Time seems to stand still as I gaze upon my father and this mysterious man. When I look at this other person, he seems to be covered in tattoos, his arms and neck anyways. He's wearing a sleeveless tux, and his wings aren't just black, they seem to have a red tint to them. He also has long white hair, and his face seems to be filled with evil. Red eyes, ugly grin as if planning something crazy. My father is filled with rage, and has a fearful look on his face while his eyebrows are frowned downward, and their hands seem to be locked together, as this immense amount of power is flowing around them. Time then begins to start again as I feel the shock wave even more as they're both locked together in each others powerful grip.
The crater that was already left in the earth begins to widen, meters and meters wider, it only begins to get even wider, but not deeper. The top soil and the grass had already been gone. The trees that surround the field begin to shake ferociously, some are even uprooted!
"Stay away from my son, Bain!" My father yells.
I've never seen him like this before.
"And what are you going to do if I don't, you're too weak to stop me anyways." Bain says, with a faint laugh afterwards.
Bain then releases all of his strength on his left arm causing Kenny to lose balance hoping it would throw him off guard. But instead of him falling, Kenny counters with a right knee to Bain's gut, then continues with throwing him into the air, quickly flying above him and stoping him mid air, he then smashes Bain forcing him to crash into the ground causing a small dent into the earth. When the dust clears you could see Bain standing, wiping the blood from his grin, laughing Hysterically. Bain then flys towards my father with such speed I almost couldn't see him move, next thing I know is my father is sent almost instantly to the ground. I couldn't even tell that Bain hit him it happened so fast. I'm scared. I'm afraid. But why? Bain then slowly descends to the ground while looking at me. That same evil look as earlier. A demon he surly is, and the first I've ever seen.
I begin to stand, but when I look up fearing for my fathers life, I hear Bain's hateful voice. So I then look at him.
"You're next!" Bain says as he slowly walks towards me. Then he darts to me, I flinch, closing my eyes and putting my hands in front of me. Never before had I ever been so scared, I can feel the fear rushing through my body. I can feel this strange wind rush past me, then I hear this noise instantly afterwards. It sounds as if, someone was sticking their hands into hamburger meat, mixing all the ingredients together. It felt strange as this familiar fluid splashed upon my face and body. It all happened so instantly. I open my eyes to see that my father had given his life for me. All I could do was scream in sadness! He protected Bain from killing me, Bain's hand had went through my fathers chest. Blood then begins to flow from my fathers mouth as he coughs it up. I can even see blood dripping from Bain's hand that had shoved from my fathers back.
Rage then begins to fill my body. I look at the sky and begin to open my hand as I lose control of my myself. I scream and force all the energy I can to the center of my palms. Bain begins to show fear, as the wind screams through the sky, trees topple over, the ground begins to shake. I then look at Bain, blood flowing from my head, for the force of the wind had cut me open. Bain begins to scream in pain and try's to flee but my father used what life he has left to hold him in place. I lift my hand towards Bain, then close my hand... Bain bursts, sending blood everywhere, all over the ground, my body, my fathers.. He's collapsed on the ground.. I try to walk towards my father.. But before I get to him, I can faintly hear my father he tells me he loves me, then everything starts spinning, everything turns black.
