Ben appeared in a special room that had been prepared ten years ago for Jonathan, sighing Ben thought all this time, this would have been over a 10 ago if Jonathan was n't as stubborn as Ben 's brother had been. Checking the boy, Ben was sure he was still out, but shaking his top dog he was n't certain they had that a good deal time Jonathan was far unassailable than he at first appeared. Finally the rest of the council appeared sealing the room, Ben actually crossed his finger laughing at his human wise-tale, but hey anything that worked. Sure enough not ten hour later Jonathan awoke wearing a look of shock which quickly turned to a snarling rage.

'' You really think you can oblige me Ben ? Though I have to acknowledge, this is indeed a proficient trap you obviously do n't see just how strong my top executive has grown. ``

Ben only nodded almost afraid to speak, the boy was right field no one really realized except him, turning he advised the council of this. Almost immediately they increased the power of the room, Jonathan could only smile at least they were taking this seriously. Jonathan sat in the marrow of the room and closed his eyes, Ben was n't fooled and told the council they needed to hurry, the boy was building up. For an time of day the council took interpretation learning far more than they had in countless century before. From all they got almost anyone could access the wild magic, with a unplayful sum of assiduity, Jonathan needed cipher like that as it came to him naturally. The sole problem with the wild magic was it often burned out the exploiter 's mind with over use and no ascendency. As Ben suspected Jonathan had almost complete control over it, learning the lock chamber over the last few hundred years.

spine at the keep Lana was finally on her feet, getting gear up to leave she was stopped at the room access by a smirking Trina, `` I have to go home, I have to find Jonathan ! '' Lana said as she tried to affect past Trina.

'' I 'm afraid I ca n't let you go Lana, if what female parent and I felt is on-key you 'll take in to stay human for a spell longer ! '' Trina exclaimed excited.

'' Huh ? '' Lana started, `` what are you talking about ? ``

With a vast grin Trina placed a manus on Lana 's stomach, `` I 'm talking about this here, '' Trina gently massaged Lana 's stomach. `` We ca n't have you hurting yourself, plus you need to stick human for at least a workweek. ``

Lana still confused could only gaze at her best protagonist Trina, still it had n't dawned on her what Trina meant.

'' I think what she means Lana my dear, is that you are fraught, '' came a vocalisation behind both of the women.

Still wearing a aspect of discombobulation it slowly dawned on Lana, just what the voice had said. Then a sly and truly happy smile began to unfold across her face.

'' He warned me that I might be, I had n't thought of it at the time but if I am then I can truly be happy. '' Lana said almost in a whisper. `` I have to tell my female parent ! She has to know ! I have to go and ... ''

'' I can severalise her Lana, '' Evelyn said walking up behind Lana, `` you need to rest, the succeeding few weeks are going to be hard on you. ``

Lana just nodded going back to the bed, an even bigger grin on her face, she was carrying Jonathan 's baby !

peeress Vishnew was going over finances, she 'd missed her daughter the live ten years she 'd just closed her book when she received a thought.

< Vish ? It 's Evelyn. > Came the thought.

< Yes Evelyn, is everything well there ? > Lady Vishnew replied.

< I need you to total over here I can contribute you but it must be just you that knows, do n't tell Vidon. > Evelyn instructed.

< Give me an hour then reach me, > ma'am Vishnew said.

It was barely an hr later that Lady Vishnew appeared in the room with Evelyn and Trina Timmins, and someone on the bed. madam Vishnew 's mouth dropped open, Lana ! Throwing her subdivision around her daughter true tears of happiness began to flow from her eyes tears that been held back for over ten age now.

Evelyn and Trina left the room ; it was more Lana 's place to order her mother than them. They 'd only been in the hallway for a few second when they heard lady Vishnew shout, looking in they saw that Lana and her mother were hugging fiercely. Lana 's mother 's brass held a 10000 of emotions ranging from shock and unbelief to absolute joy and happiness. Lana on the other mitt was smirking though she had n't planned on it, she was glad for what she and Jonathan had done on the island, now she just needed him back in her arms.

Tom had felt Evelyn get out noblewoman Vishnew over to the living though he did n't know why he was surely they were up to no full. If Tom had learned one thing in over a thousand old age, it was to not pound too far into what his wife was doing, that is unless it involved their children.

Tom was at his wits end he 'd tried to contact the council, and all but one of them were unavailable. The one elder had hurried him along seemingly too busy to engage in conversation for long. Then there was his Uncle Ben, he 'd been there not long after Jonathan had disappeared then queer ! He too had seemed to drop off the earth. Just what in the hell was going on ? Why was Tom afraid that it all had something to do with his criminal son ? Shaking his head he walked his territory, no sense going to the keep not with all the women there, probably get another brow beating by his wife about sticking his nose into female person business again. Growling he felt like something incredibly of import was about to bechance and everyone was purposely keeping all information about it a secret from him. Walking to the outer most boundary he opened the sealed vault that he knew of, now that Jonathan had found hundred of days ago. Walking to the huge space capsule he laid the pieces of the Rinora crystal within it, sighing he looked over at the other four. It was a dear thing Jonathan had only gotten the Rinora. It was the least powerful of the five, well four now though the security measures had to be increased so that no one else could release any of the others. Looking them over he remembered the capture of all of them when he was a boy. The mop up he stopped at, it 's massive security Tom never felt was enough it had decimated the integral council. A undecomposed many Mages had died that day, Tom remembered it was his grandfather 's ritual killing that had sealed the pure evil of the crystal. He could still hear his grandfather telling him to guard them well and what while to use, then the tears falling from his middle his gramps had sent him away, horrified Tom watched his grandfather die. The old man had been consumed then it was all quiet, doing as his grandfather had instructed he 'd sealed the crystal, then each in twist as it was gathered. It still eat away at Tom that he could n't receive done more to help, he 'd fuck his grandpa his own father destroyed by several vampire kindred right before he 'd been born. Tom had to wonder if that was why he was so suddenly set against his son ? All the repulsion he 'd seen from the abuse of force was that why he was so afraid ?

Locking up, Tom was heading back towards the bread and butter when he felt a familiar flavour one he 'd missed in the last-place few hundred years. `` Hello Vidon, what brings you out tonight ? '' Tom said to the darkness.

'' Damn it Tom, you could give a lamia a composite if it were possible, I take it you felt Vishnew at your donjon ? '' overlord Vidon replied.

'' Yes, '' Tom sighed, `` I decided it was time to turn back protection, before something like ten years ago happens again. Besides I have n't won a single contestation with Evelyn in over 1000 years, I do n't think I am going to suddenly take up tonight. ``

Lord Vidon chuckled slapping Tom on the articulatio humeri, `` Ah my friend ! I too am in the same predicament, ma'am Vishnew seems to give an reply for every enquiry I have to ask her. Infuriatingly as it is she always seems to make more signified. ``

Here Lord Vidon thought a second, `` Well almost everything, the Triog wars 1000 years ago, I decided to not listen to her, had I, none of us would own been here now. ``

'' I know the notion, '' Tom said, `` It was the Saami during the Mage war 1200 years ago I had to go but Evelyn insisted that I stay, it was war, and I could n't, though I tell you, it damn near killed her ! '' Lord Vidon nodded, `` Yes, if I remember right, Vishnew told me that if I were to be destroyed she 'd no longer be capable to go on. I miss the old days when loyalty was far more important than anything else. ``

'' It 's this new humans that they discovered in U.S.A., it has given freedom to the great deal, they feel they no longer have need of us it 's a disgrace though the power that we wield will still be there just not believed in as much. '' Almighty Vidon answered.

'' I think it will always be those with the money that will always have the great power, I do n't see that changing any meter soon. '' Tom said.

'' My son especially, strange thing I ca n't adjoin the Mage council. '' Tom told Lord Vidon.

'' Strangely enough the lamia council has also been indisposed the net two Day, unknown matter happening in these strange times my ally. '' Creator Vidon said. `` Since my keep has none of the female mien at the present clock time what say you and I retire there 'til such time as the females decide that they have need of us again eh ? ``

Tom 's center lit up he always loved to go to Vidon 's hold, the history there was somewhat older than that at his keep. `` Uh, '' Tom started, `` you would n't still own that 500 class old Scotch whisky would you ? ``

'' For you Tom, I think we can give out out the 700 year old ! '' Jehovah Vidon replied.

Walking off neither saw the young boy take off for the support. Reaching the figurehead door the boy ran all the way up the stairs to Evelyn. `` I saw them both dame Evelyn ! '' The boy exclaimed out of breath from running, `` They were both heading to Lord Vidon 's sustenance. '' Leaning close he whispered, `` They were talking about drinking old clobber called scotch ! ``

Thanking the boy Evelyn walked into the elbow room to evidence noblewoman Vishnew.

'' Oh honey ! '' dame Vishnew laughed, `` It appears that our husbands feel as if we no longer need them ! ``

'' What make you say that ? '' Evelyn asked.

'' Why my dear they are both human and they 're going to get drunkard. recollect the last prison term they pulled this ? '' madam Vishnew asked.

Evelyn 's eyes got huge, `` the Triog wars ! I believe not long after Tom discovered that they were both human around each former. I also remember they were drunk for well over a week ! Ugh ! I also remember the odour ! Vish we have to stop this ! ``

'' How do you propose we do that ? Remember the last time ? We both ended up pregnant, sorry but I am far too old to be that way again ! '' madam Vishnew said.

'' Oh hell ! '' Evelyn cried, and then laughed herself, `` You are so right ! Something needs to be done though, I do n't recollect I 'll ever get that smell out of my mind ! ``

'' I might have an musical theme for that, though I 'm going to need your helper. We 'll stimulate to waitress 'til they pass out a while before we do it though. ``

Two twenty-four hour period later both Lord Vidon and Tom Timmings awoke both sporting hellacious hang overs, looking down at themselves then at each other, they both started to laugh. They were both were sitting on various mainsheet that were in fact all around them, plus the fact that they were both austere naked did goose egg to dissuade the laughter. They 'd both just sat up reaching for another bottle when there was an tremendous blowup off in the distance.

Both stumbled out the door holding their heads and breadbasket, looking to the west they both saw the huge column of hummer rising from what Tom saw was near the council headquarters.

Lady Vishnew and Evelyn were feeling pretty good, the plan they 'd carried out would at to the lowest degree insure that the hold would n't smell like a brewery or worse a drinking club that their hubby had frequented before. They were just sitting to feature tea when up stairs they heard Lana screaming at the top of her voice. Rushing to her room it was taking all the four adult female in the room could do to hold her in bed.

'' NO ! NO JONATHAN ! DON '' T DO IT ! PLEASE ! '' She was screaming over and over. Then there was a sudden explosion west of the keep. `` NO JONATHAN NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO ! ! ! ``

Then Lana was unconscious, Evelyn started to sense a huge king moving toward them. Oh my god ! It was Jonathan ! His power was immense many, many times greater than the early day when he brought Lana to the livelihood .'I have to maintain her safety ,'Evelyn thought, quickly she changed Lana everything about her Jonathan was n't the only mage that could do a wipe. Grabbing dame Vishnew and Lana ; Evelyn flashed them both to a small shack between both of the keeps.

Tom and Vidon watched as something streaked over head heading to Tom 's keep. Thanking Vidon, Tom started to hit toward his keep, though they both felt they were n't wanted any more Tom still felt he had to protect the fair sex of the family. Just out of site of Vidon 's hold he felt his power head start to return, flashing quickly to the living, he found no sign of his son, wife nor nobleman Vidon 's wife. Now what the hell was going on ? It had felt like Jonathan flashing over but he had n't felt him give. Searching the donjon he found his daughter hiding in a corner a look of scourge on her face.

'' Trina ! '' Tom yelled getting no response from her, he turned her face to his.

Tears were streaming from her oculus. `` pappa ? '' she sobbed out. `` We have to help Jonathan he is so tempestuous, I 've never seen such rage as he had on his brass. Please Daddy, I know you are mad at him but you have to help him, you are the only one who can. You have the powerfulness in you, Johnny told me you did just like granddad. Please dad, you have to, if you do n't it will kill him, he is willing to die rather than hurt anyone else. ``

NO ! thought Tom not again ! Sighing he knew what he had to do but was n't trusted he could, he 'd suppressed the power for so long. It had taken a long time to advance the control he had, it took almost dying to gain it.

'' I 'll do what I can but I 'm not sure I can anymore, I shut it off so long ago. '' Tom said almost in a whisper.

It meant exposing his secret that he 'd blot out for well over a thousand long time, exposing himself to the derision and ignominy that he suffered all those one C ago. Trina looked up at her father he was the only Leslie Townes Hope for them all.

Tom sighed and flashed out to where the council headquarters was, that was the definitive tidings was. There was n't much but rubble, fire, and a lot of gouged globe. Reaching out Tom began to sense the council members, several were badly hurt, but at least they were alive. Taking a rich breath Tom reached in as recondite as he could, feeling the endless well of business leader that was there. Slowly he brought it out 'til he felt it was enough then simply made a brush question and the debris was gone.

Ben 's mouthpiece dropped undefended he 'd never seen his nephew video display that kind of power. With one hand Tom lifted all the council out of the detritus field, with the other he waved his hired hand and the building was wholly and make out again.

'' Yes Ben I have it also, I have n't used it in over 1000 yr. '' Tom said.

Ben limped to Tom looked him in the eye, `` You 've had this a great deal ascendence of the natural state magic trick and you did n't think to facilitate your son ? ! '' Shaking his pass Ben punched his Nephew in the side. `` You hypocrite ! You son of a bitch ! All this hump time ! ``

Tom picked himself off the soil, hanging his head he could only agree.

'' You have to bring through him ; you are the merely one that can ! '' Ben screamed. Tom reached out he could feel Jonathan, his mightiness was almost overloading, if it was n't stopped soon the boy would irrupt taking respective thousands of knot of everything near him with him. Tom started to generate chase feeling Jonathan 's king still increasing though for some cause it had finally started to slow.

AN HOUR BEFORE THE EXPLOSION

Jonathan had searched the room a dozen times feeling every weakness every in of the stone. He 'd started to work up up his powerfulness it should be high enough to get out of here soon. Looking out at Ben he could see that the man was n't felicitous, why not ? He 'd helped to enamour a dangerous criminal, though here Jonathan smiled, he would n't be captured much longer. Ben could see that Jonathan was becoming calmer as each day passed though he was n't for certain what he was up to. They 'd finally determined that though he had great dominance he still only had a little more than one-half what he needed. All the tryout done, Ben was more disquieted about Jonathan than their red cent decision. Ben watched him for almost an hour the council arguing and discussing, Ben noticed that Jonathan 's cutis was starting to burn. 'Oh shit ,'Ben thought, reaching out he grabbed the council throwing a carapace around them, looking back he saw Jonathan stand, nod at him then the entire building exploded. curse it Ben thought I underestimated him again .
