Johnathon watched as Lana fingered the Tree shaped pendant, he was still in a bad mood, he thought he and Tyrome were finally even. Here the ass had given them protection for their child ; Johnathon knew that Tyrome had more also. He was never going to be able to pay him back at this rate, not concentrating once again ; Johnathon started blowing the Scheol out of everything that was placed in front end of him.

growling he looked back at Lana, `` Lana hon ? '' He finally said to her.

'' What 's wrong Johnathon ? '' She asked completely incognizant of the fits he was having, looking at the pendant that she was cradling so lovingly.

'' Hon if you could, please put that away ? It reminds me of how a lot of a nonstarter I am to my friend. '' Johnathon said. This was a shock to her, hearing Tyrome Tell it, he owed Johnathon and would never be able to pay him back. Shaking her school principal she wondered how the men ever got very far with so many misunderstandings.

Placing the pendant inside her shirt tucked safely between her breasts she heard Johnathon sigh in relief. `` I 'm pitiful my love, '' she started, `` I was just absently holding it thinking of our kid and how wonderful it is we are finally together. ''

Nodding Johnathon walked over to her and passionately kissed her surprising not only her but Johnathon also.
'' After all the one C of separation and the misapprehension, I am to a greater extent than glad to try and make up for it. ''

Lana leaned into his kiss, `` Ummmm if it keeps modification such as this in you, than I am more than happy to prompt you every day how much I love you ! '' Lana said with a broad grin.

Tom just shook his promontory at this charge per unit Johnathon would n't be to concentrate at all.

Sighing Johnathon kissed Lana one more than metre then went back to work, it was a lot severe to control then he 'd thought though after yesterday it did seem that he did experience a bit of controller.

A yoke of eye watched the transactions as Tom and Johnathon practiced, ‘ I have to inform the council,'the eyes owner thought. ‘ If they keep this up then Johnathon will ascend to the position that his father cargo area, this ca n't hap if the council was to ever get out from under the ft of the Timmings.'Flashing out the spy did n't see Ben Timmings watching from further back, ‘ So, Ben thought, ‘ they have taken to spying on the keep.'Flashing in near Tom, Ben motioned him close so he could let Tom love what he 'd just seen.

'' Ben ? '' Tom said when he saw his uncle, `` I take it your being here means that something new has developed ? '' Nodding, Ben told Tom of the spy that he 'd seen watching their sustenance ; he also informed Tom that the council had n't been too pleased that Ben had sent Loretta Young Tyrome on ahead to the enforcer school removing him from dynamic duty as a bountifulness hunting watch.

'' I tell you I caught more than an earful about that for respective hours, I watched them all as you told me ; it seems that the most boisterous are a certain three mages. I am sure you are fellow with their names. Clondus, Torbert, and no surprise, Alaze loathing. ''

This last had Tom hissing then growling, that bastard had been after Evelyn when they were younger and still wanted her even 800 eld later.

As quiet down as he could Tom state Ben, `` I should have killed that by-blow when we dueled instead of taking his arm ! ''

Ben looked at Tom with daze he 'd never heard Tom voice displeasure this strongly before maybe this was a good matter after all for ALL concerned. `` We need to pee plan as of rightfield now, if I know that ass the way I do he 's already got something in the works to ruin Johnathon. This will not happen I will defeat that motherfucker long before he even gets close to Johnathon. ''

Ben could only stare at his nephew this was most brush up auditory modality Tom speak as emotionally as he was.

'' I want you to keep heart on the spy or undercover agent as I am sure they will send off More than one. It appears that I may have to motivate up the time board and confront the bastard in open Sir William Chambers. '' Tom told Ben.

'' Tom ! '' Ben cried, `` That 's what they probably want you to do ! '' Ben cried.

Tom smiled a half smirk looking at his uncle, `` That may be but call up it was my Fatherhood, your brother that wrote well over half the council rules. Also remember that I helped to compose a few of them as well after beginner was killed. I am to a greater extent than acquainted with all the rules, I still have a trump card I can represent if unsound comes to worse. ''

Ben nodded he had to admit Tom was always trying to consider ahead a lot further than he was. Tom nodded then flashed out appearing in the council Sir William Chambers ; going over everything he was certain he had them all if they did n't agree to his terms. Within moments all of the members appeared, though a petty derangement none were as upset as abhorrence and Clondus.

'' I have called an emergency meeting of the council to put to take a breather all the unwarranted hearsay that have been circulating. '' Tom started.

'' Yes as would I, '' a sour faced and most unpleasant sounding abomination, `` under trick law 5000, I ask for the execution of Johnathon Timmings. '' So the mongrel had read the book after all.

'' magic law 5000 ? I am unfamiliar with that one. '' A young council phallus stated.

Waving his hand Tom Timmings made the expectant book appear again and started to show. `` It is hereby the decision of the council that the amateur and wanton use of wild magic is outlawed. The said use of wild magic will be punishable by death, the execution to demand place immediately under the insomniac eyes of a sub-council Male member of the Timmings house. '' There were several gasp as each realized that Tom Timmings had the ultimate say in almost all they did.

Tom looked at Odium who wore a sick and twisted expression of delight on his fount at the thought of the decease of Tom 's son. Tom just started to smile and looked directly at loathing,"So you really want to go that way huh ? '' Tom asked, when Odium 's face gained a sick and loathsome grin, Tom just smiled back with the Same vividness.

'' As many of you know my father and grandfather wrote well over 75 % of the council book. What you may not know is its integral contents. My phratry has been possessors of the idle magic trick for many, many 100 now ; we were all trained and can check it far better than near can their convention trick. As you heard only the wanton use of it is cause for end. '' Tom stated.

Laughing abhorrence pointed an accusing finger at me, `` What would you call the destruction of the council chambers or the injury of almost half its member ? I call for his end NOW ! ``

Still smiling Tom looked at him then the balance of the council, `` Under respective clause of the council book I can call for the disbanding of the council for the illegal capture and examination of my son. aught allows the council to act without first advising the sub-council, what their actions are and will be. If councilman abhorrence continues to promote this progeny I will have the council disbanded in disgrace, his deed of conveyance removed and his council memory removed. ''

Looking straight into odium 's middle, Tom said, `` Your play councilman. ''

The color had drained from his aspect as the residue of the council shot tone of death at him, `` I ... I did n't sleep with ! '' He shouted.

Looking at him Tom growled, `` It is over Alaze, she did n't need you then and almost certainly does n't want you now. You should enquiry for more before you make a move like this, you 've lost again accept it and move on. ''

Turning his back Tom started to leave. There was a sudden kerfuffle behind him then a shouted admonition, Tom felt rather than saw the huge ball of fire that flew at him. Tom stopped as did the human dynamo, turning he saw that abomination was laughing wickedly, that is 'til he saw Tom sigh and shake his question slowly. Tom slowly pushed the powerhouse back at abomination ; holy terror on his face grew as it engulfed his buckler.

'' Councilman Odium, you are herewith stripped of your form of address and stripped of your mage standing on the council. '' The bolide suddenly snuffed out, reaching in Tom started to shoot several of odium 's powers, the council all gasped as they saw what Tom was doing.

'' You are sentenced to a class without powers, after that, come after my family and I will get the right hand to kill you, '' drawing closer to him Tom quietly snarled, `` It will be most unpleasant and might strike a farseeing metre to accomplish. ''

Letting the man cliff in a peck Tom bowed to the council and advised, `` I believe you need another council appendage, oh. '' Tom started when he turned his back to the council, `` Clondus, if you were allied with this excuse for a mage I advise you to think real hard before you make another move. '' With that Tom flashed out leaving an open-mouthed council staring at the weeping heap of flesh on the chamber floor.

Ben had been in hiding the entire time a huge sense of pride on his boldness, Tom had not only kept his aplomb but had done everything by their own formula to brook no objections later. Though he had to admit as another smile lit up his face the removing of the retard powers had been a fillip. ‘ Huh,'Ben thought, ‘ so his Brother had taught his son to bump off powers. So now there were three he knew of well two,'Tyrome was still learning, but he could impede almost all now, so pretty close.

Tom appeared in the practice K and erected several targets, then started to blast the Hell out of them. Sighing Tom knew this was n't going to be enough. Opening the major power slightly, Tom flashed out to the like distant islands that Johnathon had destroyed ; bringing the islands back Tom started the whole sale destruction of all of them again. A few minutes later he heard a voice behind him, `` Hell and you said I was reckless ! ''

Almost lost in his fad Tom turned and fired at Johnathon, Johnathon smiled and his buckler flared as he held the blast 'til it extinguished.

Tom 's mouth dropped open ; that was the most move on skill of control condition Johnathon had shown and without Lana there !

'' Yeah I finally figured what you had been doing to build up my control, I started a few exercises of my own, and it has helped quite a bit. So feel intimately ? '' Johnathon smiled as he looked at the vivid look on his father 's look.

'' more than you 'll know, so possess you been able to open up it yet ? '' Tom asked looking at the index that Johnathon was showing.

'' Almost half way now, 'bout 5 or 6 hours now. I heard what you did in the sleeping room ; here I thought you were an unfeeling arsehole all these years. That you were training me out of duty, I want to have a go at it about grandad. I 've heard that his control made both of ours look like a antic. '' Johnathon told Tom.

Tom nodded and said, `` Almost, I am close now, if you remember our combat I did n't bring out everything 'til the very end I did n't own to. call back with the lock once you open it your king is slightly amplified, though at the end I have to admit you were starting to sweep over me, I barely got it all the way undetermined when you hit me. ''

Johnathon was nodding taking in everything his father was telling him, the fact that his father had defended him in the open council chambers had spoken volumes to Johnathon.

An hour later, Tom had Johnathon performing a number of harder and harder tasks. When each went well than he thought they should, the pride on Tom 's font started to designate. `` I 'd say you have no less that 90 % controller now, one terminal test for today. I want you to give the shield as far as you can. '' Nodding Tom watched as Johnathon began to open the magical power shield over his top executive, nodding Tom saw that he 'd already mastered the liquid opening of it. At one-half Tom smiled very good, at 3/4 Tom was even gallant. Finally almost all the way subject Tom saw that Johnathon was starting to struggle to keep it open, so this was the first time he 'd got it open that far, excellent !

'' Alright Johnathon back it off and the barrier will close '' Nodding Johnathon did as his father said and the power slowly at first then faster began to correct.
'' Very good you are almost completely fix now, another day or two and I think you 'll be fix. '' Tom told his son. Johnathon looked shocked he thought it would take on at least two calendar month of training not five and a half hebdomad. Looking over at his father to make sure he 'd get wind right he saw his founding father shake his head yes.

That Nox, in the wickedness many powerful mages moved through the woodland towards the keep. The older looking drawing card of the men wore a dispirited and cruel facial expression that reached all the way to his eye. Smiling a wicked smile he started to ring the sustenance with a exponent lock down spell no one had never broken, but just in case he had more than enough powerful mages out here to pour down the keep leader and his son. Smiling he thought of the retain leader's married woman and girl, ummm they would be angelical beneath him when he took them by military unit laughing he had so many plaything he was going to stuff them full phase of the moon of. After all the things theses do-gooder had done they were going to get and put up greatly.

The following morning Tom felt the magic tintinnabulation erected around the keep, smiling this charm felt familiar. Reaching out Tom touched it and opened a jam as easily as ripping a small-arm of composition. Laughing 'til he felt the extremely powerful force outside the ring. Hmmmm it was a soundly affair Johnathon had as much control as he did this would make things a little easier when they went to battle.

Calling Johnathon Tom advised him what was going on then he sent message to Ben. The council was advised that there would be a massive total of dying out by the hold so they might want to get up. Ben asked if they needed him and Tom thought for a bit. `` You have to use the power Ben ; yes I know you have it, Father told me not too long before he died. I know your ascendency is far capital than his was I ca n't even feel yours. ''

Sighing Ben decided he 'd been hiding long enough and this was his household, or what was left of it. Tom also contacted master Vidon to let him know, he could learn Vidon growling when he heard that his Quaker and neighbor was under onset. Tom asked him to keep out of it, these mages were of a higher caliber than most that Vidon had been against, Vidon laughed and told Tom not to worry he was far more powerful than Tom thought.

Stepping out near the roadblock Tom addressed the massed group. `` What is the meaning of this ? You are trespassing on my family 's Edwin Herbert Land leave now while you still can stay and I can not guarantee any will leave alive.

There was a lot of snickering then about ten of the mages opened up striking Tom 's buckler, Tom just yawned and looked bored.

'' Do n't let the son of a bitch prodding you ! You 'll run down your power and be an comfortable target ! '' The drawing card yelled from the extreme back of all of the men. ‘ So,'Tom thought, ‘ that 's where you are, need to remember that for later on.'

Tom waved a hand at five of the ten and they were instantly engulfed in fire, dropping they were idle within a mere instant. Smiling, Tom thought ‘ Well that 's five, it might even make a departure later,'`` Please, I do n't cognise who you are but you have no luck even with this many ! '' Tom yelled trying to convince himself more than them even with Johnathon it was going to be a battle. With a savage yell many more than opened up on Tom. Smiling Tom opened his power to 3/4 the leap did n't go unnoticed.

'' That 's it men he 's almost at good exponent even he ca n't last forever ! '' Tom fired killing another six then three more, even more started to go off at him, ‘ Damn it,'Tom thought, ‘ I ca n't kill them fast enough !'Suddenly there was a Brobdingnagian blast and XX of those in front of him disappeared.

'' I 've got your back father ! '' Tom heard Johnathon shout as he took another twenty out reducing the blast hitting Tom to to a lesser extent than half.

Tom and Johnathon started to use book binding killing as many as they could each time. When the ring finally collapsed Tom smiled and erected his own barrier, this shocked those on the cover position, and now the full force was in front of them. An hr later Tom and Johnathon had both been hit several fourth dimension and were bleeding from respective piazza. They were holding their own when an errant flak hit Tom knocking him out, there were several wicked laughs.

They were 'til they felt Johnathon 's ire grow as did his power, taking out quite a few, Johnathon managed to get Tom under cover. Another shot hit Johnathon in the arm effectively numbing it, still firing Johnathon was n't for sure if he could concur out much foresighted when there was shouting at the back of the opposition's lines.

Johnathon felt the Vampires before they even arrived, then Ben was beside him, lifting his father, `` I 'll be right back, '' he told Johnathon.

Out in the lines many screeching started to sound as several of the mages disappeared, back to back the mages finally started to get a handle on affair but their personnel were now at half what they had been.

Lord Vidon looked at the butchery before him ; his men had grabbed one-half of the men and ripped their pharynx out. beshrew it they were starting to fight back now, and then he felt an extremely powerful index land next to Johnathon. commodity he was there finally, for the next minute things grew somewhat quiet, there were still a gravid many mages out there, and many of them had substantial power. Ben appeared next to Johnathon shite ! Johnathon was bleeding from his brass arms legs chest ; though Ben smiled, Johnathon had killed quite a few. Leaning down Ben whispered to Johnathon, `` You stay here I 'll show you why your grandfather was feared. ''

With that Johnathon felt Ben afford his exponent all the way then he felt the buckler canasta with the great power, what the perdition ? Ben felt as powerful as he 'd been when he fought father ! Ben started to float then rose above the tree. Lord Vidon felt him and withdrew all his men. Ben 's look was a mask of hatred and rage ; his middle were like ardour his hands were glowing as the power started to concentrate there in them. In a nail voice Ben looked at all the men, `` I 'll devote all of you a opportunity to walk away, you have this one chance, and then you are dead, think about it you have 1 minute of arc ! ''

Several of the men talked among themselves then flashed out, Ben smiled so they were n't all retard ! The sleep that remained express mirth and pointed at Ben opening fire at once, shrugging it off Ben 's temper started to grow as did his power. All the men on the solid ground laughed and fired even harder, when nix happened they started to get worried. Ben started to smile and pointed at each man as each started to shout out, and then die. The leader flashed out, beshrew it he thought the plan had been perfective tense ! Five proceedings later Ben settled next to Johnathon the smell of roasting flesh was everywhere, gently Ben lifted a now semi witting Johnathon and flashed to the donjon.

Evelyn screamed in craze when she saw Johnathon covered in blood though a good bit of it was his fathers. Lana growled looking at the many cut of meat and burns on his physical structure, Johnathon tried to sit up and nearly fell.

'' Sit still ; let your female parent heal you I have to go after the drawing card. You are estimable son, and your sire trained you extremely well but he did n't bed everything, but we can discuss that later. '' Ben flashed out to a keep a few miles from theirs and began to look around hmmm nothing, appearing in several more that he suspected Ben was a trivial disappointed. Sighing, Ben thought, ‘ well one more than I 'll have to rethink who might have been behind this.'Searching around he finally felt the power signature he 'd been looking for then, huh it was gone ? What the hell was going on ? Feeling the track he started to follow it as it led back toward his folk 's living ! Appearing in the session way Ben saw that he 'd been right about the Energy but had to be surely.

There with his arm around Evelyn 's neck was the patriarch of the Pompoff family !

'' So it was you after all Bernard ! '' Ben said as the one-time man tightened his clasp on Evelyn.

'' Hello love child, '' the old man said to Ben, `` 'bout time I got a opportunity to kill a few of the tart in this family ! '' The old man laughed, licking the side of Evelyn 's face, `` Is n't that compensate you fucking whore ! ''

Johnathon was still on the divan beneath them and had n't moved ; suddenly he sprang up and ripped the man 's throat out. `` NO ONE touches my female parent, you son of a bitch ! '' Johnathon growled as the man fell on the floor blood pumping out as his destruction rattle started. Johnathon smiled at his mother and a appall Ben ; then the world went blackness, damn he thought, ‘ this suck !'

Two days later Johnathon awoke with a jerk, where the hell was he ? Looking over he saw Lana asleep in a chair next to the bed. Reaching out he felt the full council was there, as was Ben, and ... Tyrome ? Groaning Johnathon tried to get out of bed, almost falling as the room began to spin Johnathon groaned again this sentence Lana awoke.

'' Ah my love you 're finally awake ! '' Shouting the others came in, Tyrome at the back ; shaking his psyche it seemed that a lot of affair that had happened were still fuzzy. A second later his father limped in, `` I 'm proud of you son you took a beating but you saved us all 'til Ben and Vidon arrived. ''

'' Thank you father, Tyrome why are you here ? '' Johnathon asked almost afraid of the reply.

'' Checking up on an old friend I heard you were hurt, besides Ben asked me to help. '' Tyrome said.

'' One day I will repay you for the assist Tyrome. '' Johnathon said.

Tyrome just smiled, ‘ You already have Johnathon,'he thought, ‘ many times over.'


THE END
