Dushu: My teeth hurt
Cally: Want me to knock em out for ya?
Anger flashed in Virgil's eyes, but before he could do anything, I slugged Hot Streak across the face with all the power of a thunder storm. He staggered backwards and yelled in pain when he crashed into the water, dousing his flames.
"Do NOT think to call Virgil that ever again! I will not allow you to insult those two! They have helped me through a lot, all because you couldn't keep your 'thing' in your pants!" I screamed at him.
Then I screamed again in pain. Virgil caught me as I collapsed, and this time with the pains that came with the sudden spurts, my power flared out once more in lightning and fire all at once. I couldn't breath, the pain was excruciating. Something was wrong.
"Kailie! Come on, you can make it through this. I know you can." Virgil whispered to me, as the lightning and fire engulfed the two of us.
I was on my knees, Virgil with his arms around me cried out as he tried to channel the lightning away from me at least. I wasn't sure if that was what was needed. I was close to the end of all this. I would be glad when those pains would stop coming. It was probably the reason for all this. Richie said that I was close to 8 months along before my family had found me. I was pretty sure that this pain was being caused by the sudden burst, my anger and pain towards Hot Streak, and probably the fact that the baby did not like the stress.
Suddenly Virgil went flying, a spout of flames sending him on his way. I felt my arm yanked up harshly. I felt flame behind me, but it did not hurt me since my own fire raged about me.
"Don't move any closer. I know I can snap her neck in a second if you try anything. You know Kailie. We're made for each other. We match flame for flame." Hot Streak said. "I'm going to use our kid to get me places I could only dream of before. Imagine your powers, and my Meta human DNA. This is going to be one powerful kid. But then again, has to have a dad huh?"
"That's…what… you… THINK!" I shouted, fire formed a column around us.
The fire died out, and I collapsed to my knees, holding my head. Hot Streak landed on the ground, unconscious. I was stronger than he was. I would never reach that kind of strength again, meaning I couldn't fight fire with fire all the time. My family darted forward, Virgil joining them.
"I think its time. Anuhea, get the birthing women." Lolo Leilani said.
"Young man, stay with her. We cannot touch her as long as her power lashes out like that. It will kill her and the child. You are the only one that seems to be able to bring her lightning at bay. You have your own, but will you be able to take on hers as well?" My aunt asked.
"I'll try." Virgil said.
Richie stood by, using Backpack to continuously scan what it could. Since Virgil was keeping the electricity at bay, it was easier. But it would get so much harder.
I don't know how Virgil managed to keep his cool while I was in labor. He managed to stay by my side, making sure the electricity I emitted while in such pain would not harm anyone. It took two days. Many were surprised by this quick birthing, including myself.
"Your child is born. He needs a name." My great grandmother said.
"Kahoku. He will shine like the stars above." I whispered.
They looked at me; my hair was plastered to my face. Virgil looked at me, exhaustion in his eyes. My great grandmother took my son and lifted him for all to see.
"Behold Kahoku, child of Kailie. Born of the chosen, born of the strong. May Kali look in favor on you both. For she is your name sake Kailie, you are her touched. Do not think that all you went through was in vain. You have much more ahead of you." She said.
"I thank Kali for the wisdom that I have now. I hope she grants me peace in my life so that I can raise Kahoku well." I said.
With that my Great Grandmother handed me my son, wrapped in traditional blankets of my family. He was indeed a bright one. His eyes were open, and already they shone with the silver and gold of the stars. I smiled. Virgil and Richie came over to see the baby. He cooed at them, happy.
"I think he likes you." I said.
"I'm glad. You know, pops and Sharon and I will help you as much as we can." Virgil said.
"And of that I am glad." I said.
"We have to. As powerful as you are, and seeing as he's got Hot Streak's blood as well, we have to make sure Kahoku stays out of the wrong hands." Richie said.
"Thank you." I said.
"You will return home once the feast is over." Ali'ikai said.
"Feast?" Richie and Virgil said. I laughed.
"It will last for a few days. You might wish to contact your father about this. We have a few phones around here. Don't tell him where you are though, but that you are alright and you will soon be home. I don't want him getting suspicious." I said.
"No worries there. Chances are he thinks we're still in the clutches of the Meta breed. I'll tell him we're laying low until we're sure the bad guys aren't on our tails anymore." Virgil said.
Goddess: Yeah, bad ending I agree, but it's all I could do...
Next is due up...
Cally: and yes anacsander... Hotstreak doesn't know when to cap it. Are we overdoing it?
