Chapter 2 Death and Rebirth
The Silver haired man found his way from the forest covered in blood he had been attacked and his
wounds were in need of attention that he himself couldn't provide the wound was in his shoulder though he had
been warned to avoid other people, by his father, before he was killed that is. But there was no way he could stay
a complete introvert and he wasn't about to let the wound fester and find what new diseases it turned up. He was a
psionic a rare breed indeed and one of great power at that............ if only so easy to control. He limped into
the town a bit tired he found he couldn't think. He heard the people talking and thinking all around him he wasn't
trying to intrude he was just unaware of this ability. A man bumped into him and he heard the man think
' heh no way he noticed that........'
his dagger was sharp, swift and precise cutting the man in three places swell of the back, under the arm and side of
the neck, the man's dying thought was 'why me..........?'
Yabu knew instantly that he'd made a small mistake, yes, the man indeed had his stuff but the comforting
thoughts had left, no matter how annoying he had found them. Guards stepped out from the crowd Yabu dropped
his dagger and instinctively drew his sword. The thoughts of the guards washed over him in an instant: what they
were going to do the people as well excitement what was going to happen he dropped his sword as the thoughts hit
him he held his temple and cried out in pain, he found he was bleeding he willed it away but it only intensified the
throbbing in his head like an inescapable plague..............
'Stop...........Leave me alone.........' he pleaded with the guards
"Should have thought about that one before killing someone in our town."
'But he was............' Yabu's mind was barraged again with these peoples thoughts his mind wheeled with pain
The guards swords and pikes swung down. Last thing Yabu remembered..........
Their pikes and swords stopped short about three inches from their intended target and began to vibrate so violently
they shattered the shrapnel of the blades and poles floated around the man as he stood. He revealed his face, pale
bleeding from the temple the man lifted his sword with his mind and willed it to him grasped the hilt tightly in his
hand and lashed out at the foremost ranks of guards and villagers alike cutting through them as though the
consistency of their bodies, armor and bones alike were unstable wood. In the first six seconds all of the guards
were dropped and the heap of shrapnel lay in the bodies of the helpless villagers. More guards came uselessly like a
villages futile effort to stop a demon. The silver haired man laughed his voice sounded that of seven people talking
at once. He continued to cut through the village.................
Xion awoke bandaged. His vision blurry and still in a great deal of pain.
'Alive..........' he heard someone else in the room stand at the sound of his voice.
He tried unsuccessfully to sit up.
????: "Please don't move.........." it was a woman's voice and strangely reassuring.
He gazed over finding himself to blind to see anything but an outline and goldish hair.
'what time is it.........?' he asked softly
" Nearing night I found you two hours ago...........are you feeling all right?...........I didn't think you'd be so quick
to wake. Technically you should be dead.............How?"
'I'm not so sure of that one myself.........'
"Your wanted you know............" she walked a bit closer "............and I'm sorry but I can't guarantee safety...........
best for you to leave as soon as you can.............they will find this place eventually."
'I do not understand. What do they want with me I wonder.........'
" At first I don't know but now it should be pretty apparent to you." She stared at him in silence "The men on that
hill didn't tear themselves apart you know."
'I don't know what happened...........' he said before slipping back into darkness.
He awoke the next morning to hear the cry of his new friend, he tried to move but still could not
several men entered the room one walked over and said in a gruff voice. " Doesn't look so harmful...........pick him
up, take him away."
He was helpless couldn't move, even to save the one who had tried so hard to save him. She approached him
and said with tears in her eyes........ "Sorry......." she was beautiful.......... couldn't matter either way to Xion who
knew his luck had gone thin. 'Looks like this world doesn't accept me............not even my own race would...........
finally I die' he smiled as he was taken off.
