Chapter Two
Leia, leia. He shook me awake. I had dozed off on
the cold stone floor.Opening groggy eyes I muttered,
where am I? Then I finished waking up and it all came
back to me in a flash. I remembered being captured,
and seeing what he could do. I remebered showing him
what I could do as well.I stood up slowly getting my
bearings.
Aryon? I questioned.
Ya, he said.
Why? I said.
I dont know, he began slowly, I think...that it
might have something to do with evil, just pure evil
that wants all other people to live in constant pain.
And I think the only way we can stop him is to find
all the other mages with power like ours. Then maybe
we can be more powerful than him and protect this
world.
I thought for a minute, so, how?
Mind magic , he said calmly.
What!? I exclaimed.
Mind magic, usually I dont recommend it , and there
are certain morals you ll need to learn, but in this
case I think its necessary, he replied. We can search
for the other people with powers like ours, before he
finds them, get it?
Ya, i think,
OK, come over here then, he commanded. I walked
over and he showed me a globe of something, I had no
idea what. Mist swirled in the glass globe, twisting
and turning with grace, and a bit of sly evilness.
This is just for looks, he laughed at my expression.
Mind magic is simply being able to put yourself in
the mindset of a different person. Once you do that,
you can read their mind, also if you can become
completely one with that person you can influence
their thoughts. That is risky though and I dont
recommend it. People who have done that sometimes go
completely insane, driven crazy by the ideas that come
into their heads. Driven crazy by the idea that their
own thoughts could be manipulated.By the question,
does anybody like me for myself? Or did I just
manipulate their thoughts about me?It drives people
insane
Ya, I can imagine, I said thinking about what I
could, and probably would do with that kind of power.
Yea, he said quietly. Its happened to me before.
Only a few people were my friends, so I used mind
tricks to become the most popular person in school.
But then , I didnt know who liked me for who I really
was, and who just was following my mind instructions.
