Aziz's Fury
About two weeks later, Brook was in the valley by herself, picking flowers and humming to herself merrily.
She stopped when she sensed something was wrong and the clouds blew across the sky, covering the sun. She stood up in time to see Aziz storming over the ridge, her brothers and sister closely in tow.
Aziz stopped when he was a couple of feet away. "What's this your brothers and sister told me? You're pregnant?!" He bellowed.
Brook felt betrayed as she looked at her siblings, but they all looked away, refusing to meet her eyes.
Her silence was an answer in itself. "Idiot! Have you not listened to what I told you?! You got pregnant with some village peasant, and what's more, is he knows about all of our powers!" He yelled.
Brook felt tears prick her eyes but refused to cry in front of Aziz. "Father..." Her voice cracked. "Please-"
He cut her off. "No! I warned you! Told you not to tell them about our powers! But you did it anyways, even after I made you promise me!"
Thunder crackled in the distance, and dark clouds were rolling in. Brook tried again to beseech Aziz. "I'm sorry father! I didn't mean-"
Aziz had enough. "Shut up!" He growled fiercely in his throat. "You betrayed me and my trust, and now you're going to suffer the consequences!" He pointed a finger right in the middle of her face.
Brook gasped and a tear ran down her face.
Flash looked between the finger and Brook and shouted at the same time as Flora. "Father!"
Aziz's finger began to glow red. Gust was shocked. "No!"
"Surely you won't kill her!" Blaze exclaimed.
Aziz ignored his four children as he pointed hi finger at Brook's stomach. "May your children... and your children's children be cursed forever!"
A small beam of light shot from his finger and hit Brook's stomach. Her entire tummy was engulfed in the red light until he seemed to sink in and disappeared.
Brook breathed heavily as she looked up from her stomach to Aziz. "Father! What have you done?"
Aziz growled. "I'm not your father anymore!" He spat and stormed away from Brook.
The four siblings gave Brook a look of pity before turning and following their father away. Brook sank to her knees, and began crying.
