Dark Magic #1

Chapter 21 - Dark Vs. Light

"Hello little sister"

"Hello Jacob"

Talking to my brother is even more unreal than actually seeing him stand here in front of me in real life. You would never be able to tell us apart by just looking at our eyes, both as blue as can be and now thanks to Sebastian our hair matched as well. One thing was different about his though he started growing a beard. The beard actually suited him against my better judgement of actually admitting it but it also went great with his clothes. A dark navy waist coat, grey chinos that clung to his leg muscles, black t-shirt and high tops. He looked casual but still it matched his attitude to life.

"Well, well you look good little sis. War suits you"

"Wish I could say the same about you." I wanted so bad to just shout at him but I had to keep my anger in check, otherwise I might explode and say something I will regret later.

"Be nice, you did break into my house" He said with a smile on his face.

"Break into your house? You almost killed me and everyone we know! You kidnapped me, you cursed Sebastian and you have the gall to bring up breaking into your house?" I shouted.

"Ouch that hurts!" he mocked me as he placed a hand over his heart and pretended to be hurt from what I just said. "Tell me one thing little sis, what were you planning to do exactly? Kill me?" He asked as he walked around me in circles.

"I thought about it a lot but then I came to the conclusion I didn't want to become anything like you. I don't want to kill people to set everything back to normal, that's not me. That's you!" I answered him.

Instead of snapping at me he just started laughing, belting out this low creepy laugh. "You are funny little sis. You think it's who I am? No little sister it's who I am meant to be! And you are never had the guts to do it in the first place." He was right. I was always told who I should be and what I can do? Have I portrayed such a weakling attitude that everyone thinks of me as useless. Eric thought I was not strong enough to do this, that's why he left me. Merlin said I was weak when it came to my powers but I handed him on his ass. The only people that actually always believed in me was Sebastian, Ava and Alex. For once I needed to stop what other people wanted and I needed to think about what I wanted. What I needed! What I can do?

"That's what you think" Without a hint of hesitation I threw my left fist directly through his face, connecting my knuckles with his cheek. He didn't even flinch from my punch, what is he made of stone?

"Ouch. My turn" Jacob swung the back of his left hand through my face making me fall down onto the ground. Although instead of waiting for him to hurt me more I swung my right foot and kicked him right in the left kneecap making him buckle to the ground.

"How's that for your little sister?" I said with a big smile on my face, pushing myself back onto my feet.

"That's it!" His eyes suddenly flashed pure gold and I knew exactly what that meant. Without a moment of hesitation a force threw me backwards into the brick wall. The hard surface of the wall sent a shot of pain through my entire body. He wants to play with magic, then let's play!

"Let's end this once and for all!" I felt my anger move through my body along with my magic and a sudden burst of air released around my body making the force that holding me against the wall break away as well as sending Jacob stumbling backwards.

"You want to play with the big guns then let's do this"

Jacob raised his hands to his sides and what appeared from his palm made my body stand cold. He created fireballs out of his palms, much bigger than mine. He loved fire, ever since we were little kids and guessing by the size of them he has been practising on how to create them. In a swift movement he began throwing fireball after fireball in my direction, in a non-stop stream of fire. I didn't know what to do so I just threw up my hands in front of me and hoped my magic would protect me from their fires. A pure white shield threw itself between my palms and the fire balls. You could hear the fireballs flow into my shield with a loud bang type of sound each time they collided with one another.
