Blade: Who I Really Am
Disclaimer- Who doesn't wish they were JK Rowling? Well maybe JK herself, but not the point! If I owned HP then cute Sean Biggerstaff would be playing Cedric Diggory, and I would be Cho Chang and get to dance with him! So all that rambling means I do not own anything familiar. Oh and I don't own Avatar either, its not Avatar but the Elementals are like the show Avatar with Water, Earth, Air, Fire and a few others I added.
A/N- I'm not sure but I may have taken ideas from other people, if you think I have taken your ideas, I am very sorry for not saying that it was your idea. Email me and tell me or put it in a review and I will check if I have read your fan fiction, if I have I'll make sure to put something here about your fic and what an amazing author you are! And please again be gentle on me this is my first fic! Well-posted one.
Chapter 1: The Truth"Blade Dour! Get your predictable lazy ass up right now!" An angry voice yelled somewhere from above. All Blade could see was darkness, well you would to if your eyes were closed. He opened his eyes and clenched his teeth looking at his arm that was bleeding profusely. Aidan was hovering over him looking impatient. Blade used this to his advantage; he gave a sweeping kick and knocked Aidan of his feet. Before Aidan could say anything, he had the tip of the sword to his throat. Blade then lowered the sword.
"Very good Blade, taking advantage of an opponents distraction, Adamina would be proud," Aidan said standing up shaking his thick mass of brown hair, even though it had been 17 years from that faithful day, he still looked exactly the same, like he hadn't aged even though he had, Aidan looked like he was in his early 30's but he wasn't he was in his early 50's actually. Blade snorted, Adamina was a very, dirty player when it came to swordsmanship.
"Now lets get bandages for your arm," Aidan said much more softly, he may be very rough in training but he always made sure that Blade had what he needed if he got hurt.
A few minutes later they were both sitting on a rock in the middle of a very deep lake with a waterfall to the left of them. Aidan was bandaging Blades arm a bit roughly though Blade was barely wincing he had, had much worse cuts in his life, many having turned into scars. The lake was beautiful today, it was glistening, and was almost sapphire, reflecting the cloudless sky, were you couldn't see the sun because the giant trees hid it.
"What's wrong Blade, you usually mock complain by now?" Aidan asked looking at Blade. Blade sighed and continued to stare at the large trees surrounding the peace full spot. "Aidan, today's my seventeenth birthday, I come of age today, I feel as if something should happen, but I feel well empty, at least a part of me does," Blade had a sad note in his voice.
Blade heard a sigh and turned to look at Aidan. Ice blue with gray and red, met dark brown with blue, Blade shuddered slightly, those eyes were so… knowing. They seemed to see right through Blade, at his thoughts and troubles. Aidan though saw something in them he hadn't ever remembered seeing; there was what seemed to be triumph, loss, sadness and a touch of fear.
"You're ready," was all Aidan said, he stood up abruptly and jumped of the rock into the water. "What!" A very confused Blade yelled out at him. Flustered he raised his bandaged arm trust it forward then back, and spun kicked, Aidan always said he was to flashy, he could always do it with a simple flick of the wrist, Blade that is, the water backed away leaving him a path to shore. He looked around and didn't see a sign of Aidan anywhere, but what he did see were various twigs broken, and pebbles moved aside, not to mention water splattered everywhere. Blade wasn't the best tracker but Aidan was being so obvious with his trail
Immediately Blade knew were Aidan was going, the man moved way to bloody fast for his own good! Blade reached the waterfall and flicked his wrist in a short upward motion. He did not do kicks or fancy turns because it intrigued him that Aidan was being so noticeable; he wanted to find him fast. The heavily flowing water suddenly went upward and stopped, revealing a dark opening, but was lighted with torches. He went thorough the opening and the water started rushing again.
Aidan was nowhere in sight, and there were dozens of smaller passageways branching out from the one he was in.
"Damn," he cursed, after a second of thinking he hurriedly transformed into his form, a panther. The panther was a magnificent being, its coat was silky black, with a tint of brown around the ears, and the eyes were brown with the darkest blue, rimming the edges of the pupil and outer parts. His senses got sharper he got the faint smell of a wolf, the freshest smell compared to the rest. He followed the smell, down a passage that wasn't used often, but it was soon lost. But Blade was lucky Salazar, a pure black snake, was passing.
"Ssalazar, so thiss iss were you go in the afternoon, have you sseen Aidan?" Blade asked in Parseltounge, after changing back into his human form. The black snake moved his head in an up and down fashion and hissed,
"Yess massster Blade, he went that way ten minutes ago," then Salazar jerked his head towards the passage to Blade's left. "And he wass in hiss wolf form," Salazar said. Blade hissed his thanks even though he new Aidan was in his wolf form, the smell was always different.
Blade transformed into his panther form and went to the passage that Salazar had directed. Ten minutes into the path, Blade saw the shadow of a man leaning against a wall; he made his way toward the figure, which he new was Aidan. When Aidan came into view Blade transformed back into human. Aidan was there a strange look on his face.
Blade was getting angry, what the hell was going on? If it were a test it wouldn't be so easy, this wasn't like Aidan, he would have made sure Salazar didn't tell him, Blade, were, Aidan, had gone he would have also used a feather light spell to make sure that he left no tracks outside.
"What the hell is going on?" Blade asked. Aidan looked at him his blue eyes slowly turning fire red, this only happened when he was showing extreme emotion.
"Blade what are you doing?" yelled and incredibly incredulous voice. "I'm playing…" mumbled a guilty five year old boy, who was trying, and failing to hid a very sharp, very real sword behind his back. "Blade, is that my sword! How many times do I have to tell you, you will use real swords when you're old enough! When you're ready! How dare you disobey me, you could be hurt!" Aidan's voice was loud and filled the air, his eyes were turning that fire red slowly. Tears started filling the young boys eyes. Aidan suddenly brought his voice to a lower gentler level, "I'm sorry kiddo, it's just you need to be careful, you might get hurt, and I couldn't bare to see that, promise you'll listen to me from now on?" He wiped away the single tear that fell down Blade's face, the tear was not clear like most peoples tears it was a very light blue barely noticeable but still there. Blade nodded and gave the sword, awkwardly to the older man, "I'm sorry Adi'."Blade shook his head from that memory. That had been the first time he had seen Aidan's eyes turn red. That was also the day he found out that his eyes would do the same the older he got.
"Again what the hell is going on!" Blade asked the silent Aidan. Aidan sighed, his eyes still not returning to its normal color.
"What's wrong Aidan?" Blade asked worriedly. Aidan sighed once more and started,
"Blade, there is a room behind this wall, that room will change you're life forever, you'll find out when we get in," Aidan said. Blade looked at him sharply, he opened his mouth then shut it again, he'd find out what this was all about when Aidan showed him this room.
Aidan put his hands together and then started to pull then apart a silver aura seemed to be pulsating through him, showing in the air around his body. He then said "The one who is destined for glory, the savior of us all approaches, open!" The wall slid open reveling a very large spacious room, surrounded by bookshelves, filled with books and what appeared to be photo albums, there was a large desk with a large stone basin, which Blade knew to be a pensive, stood.
Blade went through what appeared to be an archway (A/N no there was no Black Veil!) to get through the room, all at once a pain shot through his body. The pain went up his spine and ended on his forehead were it stayed for a second longer.
"What the fuck was that?" Blade asked rubbing his forehead, then his hand jumping of at the feel of an imperfection, some type of cut (A/N hmm I wonder…) had appeared.
"Again what the hell was that!" Blade was getting freaked out now. What was going on? First a room he had never been in that appeared out of nowhere, strange words that sounded more like a prophecy, and now a pain going through him leaving some type of mark on his forehead.
Aidan however passed through the archway without any problems. Blade shot him a dirty look.
"Blade first before I tell you anything you might want to take a look at this," Aidan said, he had walked to his desk and retrieved a round circular mirror? Why would Aidan want him to look at himself?
Blade gave him a confused look and stared at the mirror. He gasped. He looked different. His hair got shorter from its normal shoulder length and was very messed up, as though he had just gotten of a broom, or gotten out of a fight with Adamina. His nose got slightly shorter, his eyes went from deep brown eyes were now emerald green with the same blue around the outer part of the colored part of his eyes (A/N I have no idea what that's called if someone could tell me!), dark sapphire. But what caught Blades attention the most was the lightning shaped scar on his forehead.
He looked up form the mirror to Aidan, "What in Merlin's name is going on."
A/N Weak ending I know but I had to stop it, when I first did it in my notebook I made the explanation one chapter, but after the 6th book I have a lot more to incorporate.
I like the little blue button! I'd like it more if you pushed it and reviewed!
