When we left the local farm, Yon looked around a bit and began to speak in a whisper
"You know what I'll tell you?" attracts attention to yourself "When you were unconscious, well, that time, before the arena, we were ordered to bring you this essence so that you recover faster" looking around again, she continued "I'll tell you a secret, we didn't give it to you. Knowing about its consequences, we decided to take a chance and disobey our mother's order, but as I see it" a smile appeared on her face "And for good reason"
After hearing such a secret, I had nothing to say (even if I could) and as a thank you, I just smiled at her
When she saw my smile, she immediately turned away from me, but I could see her blush "We just did what we thought was necessary and..." she began to stumble a little, but still continued "You do it, smile more often, almost everyone here with sour faces walks"
"Naturally, knowing that you drink, I'm not surprised," I thought, rolling my eyes
"Also, I've heard that a good day starts with a smile" by putting on a strange pose "This will be your motivation to smile"
Nodding at her in response, we stood in silence for a short time, until we heard a loud running from the far corridor that was moving in our direction
"SILENT!" a woman's voice shouted into the entire corridor "I'M COMING TO YOU"
The smile immediately disappeared from our faces, looking into the dark corridor, we saw two green eyes that were moving at high speed in our direction
"Damn it" says Yon and by her look, she even turned pale "This is our mother, watch out" she says to me and falling to the floor"
Because of the panic, I did not hear what she said to me and already saw a large predatory body flying towards me. I was ready to run into her and get unpredictable injuries, but then I heard a voice in my head
"HURRY UP, DODGE" Night shouts at me
After her scream, my body unknowingly began to move and I felt my magic begin to work. My body quickly began to bend backwards so that I could reach the floor with my hands while standing, and at that moment, a body flies over me and crashes into the wall with a loud crash, raising a cloud of dust
![]()
Frozen in a strange pose, in the form of a semicircle, I was looking upside down at the landing site of our mother, and suddenly slow clapping begins to be heard for me
"Excellent reaction, son" Chrysalis fits me "And also, the perfect shape of the bridge"
After her remark, my body begins to shake violently, my hands stop holding me and from weakness, I fall to the floor
"Hmm," she frowns, "But there's more to work on."
Next, she went to Yon, lying on the floor and stood right in front of her with her arms crossed
Yon from the silence, slowly raises her head and notices Chrysalis standing in front of her, the only thing that comes to her is an innocent smile
Chrysalis has one eye twitching nervously and she tells her to quickly stand up
After that, Yon stands up as fast as he can and starts apologizing "I'm sorry, it was unexpected for me"
"That's how, you wasn't ready" Chrysalis growls "What kind of example do you give our newcomer? WE are changelings, we must be prepared for the unexpected" at this moment, she hits the wall with her hand so that a deep mark from her fist remains "I promoted you and now you have to match her" she points her finger at me "Look at him, with his position, he took better measures are you"
"Forgive me" Yon bows his head "But what could I do?"
"Are you asking me?" Chrysalis is indignant "Something better than just falling on the floor. At this rate, in a couple of months, this boy" pointing at me with his finger "Will become stronger than you"
I felt uncomfortable with such a remark, because I was planning to leave here
"And now, we will start training" our mother announces "After the test, you did not show yourself at your best, and therefore, I'm going to show everyone how your flame burns"
Yon comes in here "Forgive me, but he won't be able to go to training right now"
Chrysalis glared at her "Try to explain to me why we can't"
Yon lost his confidence for a second, but suddenly became bolder and clearly expressed his opinion "He only recently woke up and did not regain his strength, so that there would be no problems with his health again, he needs to recover normally and recover from a long sleep" she said in one breath
Her mother glared at her and waited for a trick, but after a few seconds, her gaze softened and she looked at me
"Okay," she says, sighing, "I'll give you one day to rest, but tomorrow, you have to be like a cucumber. And now, go to your deck and don't come out, it's not a quiet time" she puts her hand on my shoulder
But when she touched me, she stopped and froze in place, as if she saw something in me
After standing there for a short time, she says softly "Something inside you has changed"
With these words, a pen with a piece of paper appears in her hand from nowhere and begins to write something there. After finishing her message, she gives it to me and says "Read it when you come to your cabin" and with these words quickly leaves
I stood in complete shock with a piece of paper in my hand and did not understand what to do next
But then, Yon calls me sharply "Okay, let's go, I'll take you to your cabin" and we went
"Boy" calling me Night "I think she could feel me in you"
"Are you serious," I say to Night, "What do you think she wrote?"
"I don't know, only in the room and we'll find out" the Night ends
Walking in silence, Yon decides not to talk much "You're lucky"
I look at her questioning.
"Well, how can I tell you, you have your deck cabin and no neighbors, as I think this is due to the hype about you and most of the people want to punish you somehow"
When I heard that, I felt uneasy
"I can also say that our mother takes care of you and so that you know, she has never shown such attention to anyone except you" and with these words she stops at the door "Here you will live"
Opening this creaking door and going inside, I began to assess the situation. The cabin was almost empty and without a porthole, there was only a bed and a small box
"How should I tell you, there used to be a solitary cell here, for particularly disobedient people, but because of the large number of complaints, your mother decided to put you here, for safety" she says awkwardly "Also, for your safety, food will be brought to you here, and you will go out when your mother allows"
I was shocked by their idea of "Just fine, I've been put under house arrest now"
"As I think" Night tells me "It will only help us"
"And how is that?" I ask her
"No one will bother us here for training" she concludes
I just nod at her answer and then Yon calls me
"Are you offended?" she asks me "I can understand you, but you understand, you are safer here than anywhere else" she starts reaching out to me and unexpectedly for me, starts hugging "I will visit you often and therefore, until tomorrow"
With these words, she releases me from her embrace, turns around and leaves, and as soon as she left, the door slams shut with a loud noise and leaves me alone
Left alone, I walk over to my recumbent place and sit down at the very edge
Then blue cosmic smoke comes out of me, which stretches towards me in a plume and two blue turquoise eyes appear at the very tip of this clot, looking at me
"Little one" Night distracts me and I look at her in surprise "What do you feel now?"
"Me?" I ask her again, coming out of complete shock, "At the moment, I feel empty calm"
"I see," she says and mumbles something about eunuth, if I heard correctly "Okay, now look what they wrote to us there?"
"Wait, how did you manage to do that?" I ask in complete shock, "When did you learn this?"
"What a slow–witted person you are" she scolds and rolls her eyes "I told you that, and I didn't have a chance to show you, and now, open this damn note"
Remembering the note that I was clutching so tightly in my hand that I forgot about it, I open it and a couple of photos of people I don't know fall out of it, without paying attention, I begin to read what is written in it
"-Son, since our last meeting, you have changed a lot, I feel like your manna has become bigger and stronger, but I am haunted by the fact that it smells strange and therefore, I am giving you the first task. Tomorrow, at morning training, you have to demonstrate our main skill changelings, and this is reincarnation. I left a couple of photos of the people you have to turn into (if you want, you can become someone to your taste), for this you have to imagine a person in your head and want to become them from the outside, it doesn't hurt, it won't even tickle a lot. But if you fail to complete the task, then your personal trainer Pharynx will knock out all the nonsense that is in you. Good luck and remember, We are a family and we are united-"
After reading the note, I didn't know what to say, so Night decided to start for me
"Well, at least she didn't notice me" she went through the lists again and continued "But she was able to catch something in you"
"I realized it myself when she touched me, I felt her gaze on me, as if she was scanning me." After looking at the photos that were left for me, I continued, "I'm not even asking how to complete this task and remembering who Pharynx is, tomorrow is my last day to live"
Night is approaching my head and hitting me with its smoke "Don't whine, your whining won't help us, so get yourself in the hooves and do what you have to"
"I don't have hooves," I correct her.
The blow of this smoke flies into me again "You still fix me here, it doesn't change the thought" she reproaches me "Therefore, put your tail in your teeth and do what you're told"
After hearing her peculiar phrase again, I decided to keep silent about my remark and with a full (but uncertain) attitude I begin to analyze photos of people
In one of the photos, a man with a strong build, with large and inflated muscles was depicted and he stood in a strange pose, as if he was posing for someone and all his physical indicators were visible in this pose
"A very strange guy," I think, "And why do they keep such photos?"
"Some things, it's better for us not to know" Night tells me "But what can I say, this male is very similar to the minotaur"
After looking at her in surprise and deciding not to dwell on it for a long time, I look at the photo three times. In the second photo, it was not a young woman, with sad but confident eyes, and she was holding something like a small guitar in her hands, with some kind of strange little stick in her hands
"Night, what kind of instrument is this?" I ask my neighbor
"This?" she asks me again, seeing my nod, she continued "This is an ordinary violin, it's like a guitar, but it's played with this little bow" she points to a stick
"I see, and she wants me to turn into one of them? Well, let's try" I think and take a photo with a man "Let's try with him"
Sitting on my bed, I began to analyze in detail the person who was in the photo. After a while, with the certainty that I remembered his appearance, I close my eyes and try to visualize him on myself, after sitting there for a while I began to understand…
"It doesn't work" I wearily open my eyes and lean on my hands "I don't feel anything"
"It's because you're not doing everything right," Night tells me, "You're not trying right."
"And then what should I do, Teacher?" I ask her
"And I'll ask you, tell me" her eyes are tightly approaching mine "Are there any differences from when you tried to conjure and now?"
"Well," I turn my eyes away and try to remember, "Well, maybe I'm not trying hard enough?"
Then a blow hits me in the head "It's not right, think further"
"Maybe we need to find another approach?" I'm trying to guess again
And again she hits me "It's not right, there's another pattern here"
I get mad at her punches and try to figure out what she wants to say.
"I guess," I say, a little angry, "I didn't remember the person well?"
And again, I get hit in the head, which makes me lose my patience.
"Stop it already," I yell at her in my head, "Stop hitting me, it hurts me," and wipe the place of impact
Night flying around me and asking "What do you feel now?"
"What do I feel?" I yell at her, "I feel like I'm in pain."
I get hit again, but this time it's weaker, as if I got a click "I asked you about the emotion, she tells me"
Wiping my bruise spot, I answer her, "Can't you see? I'm angry."
"Look around, do you see any changes?"
"What could change around from your blows" I answer her boldly and look around "Nothing has changed here, everything is as it was, and... um..." then I look at my hands and notice how they begin to glow with a red-blue light, but then the light goes out and my hands become like they were there before. Looking at your hands, only one question comes to mind: "And how did it happen?"
Night appears at my side and asks a question "Do you understand what happened?"
Continuing to look at my hands, I answer her "No"
And again I get a blow to the head "Idiot" she says "For reasons I don't understand, your magic strongly depends on your emotions and according to my observations, the stronger your negative emotions, the more powerful your magic. And therefore, try to set yourself up negatively and act"
After hearing her observations, I began to recall old fragments in my life that happened to me. To recall an unpleasant period in the orphanage, something strange was constantly happening to me when I was angry, or the same moments happening on the ship. Here I remember the moment with the argument with Ron and an interesting question comes to me: "Are there any differences between negative emotions?"
Here I call my neighbor in my head "Night, is it possible that there are differences between negative emotions?"
Night turned away from me for a second, but through the smoke I could see her eyes darting in different directions, as if she was analyzing my question. After a minute, she turns back to me with a puzzled look "Can you explain your guess?"
"Well, how to say it," I began to speak uncertainly, as if I was choosing the right words, "I was thinking, at different moments different situations were happening around me. Well, for example, the case when I unexpectedly ran fast for myself, if I remember correctly, then I felt envy strongly, and at another moment, when I was in someone else's first dream, I felt rage. If you compare those moments, you can see that my magic worked differently, but what if, in order to turn into someone, you have to feel something different?"
My teacher patiently listened to me when I finished and with each passing moment, her expression was constantly changing and when I finished, only a thoughtful look remained on her face
We sat in silence for a while and after the last time, I decided not to bother her in any way and waited patiently for her to answer me herself
"Perhaps there is some truth in your judgments" she suddenly says "But we will need to arrange small experiments" and a notebook appears out of nowhere
I nodded for her idea, but if I had known what it would lead to, I would not have agreed to it.
It's been 3 hours
I was lying on my bed, all tired and completely exhausted. Because Night was testing me with all the emotions she knew
"Please, I'm begging you to stop this" I'm begging her "What did I do to you?"
"Okay, okay, stop whining," she says, looking at her imaginary notebook, "I'm done, let's take stock, you're not a restrained and envious whiner, without a drop of lust"
"And if you are more specific?" I ask
"And to be more precise, after testing a few dozen emotions, your magic only works on a couple" she says "At the moment, the key ones are: anger, envy and fear. Perhaps in the future something may be added" the notebook dissolves in her flame "Also, I began to understand that you are innocence itself"
"I'm glad it's over," I lie smiling, "I'm tired after checking disgust and confusion, and the boredom check finished me off, did you need to completely immobilize me and not talk to me for an hour?"
"It's all for the sake of science," she says, and chuckles softly as she finishes, "And it was funny."
Night was laughing softly, but I wasn't in the mood for it, because I was exhausted. But unexpectedly for me, she abruptly stops laughing and looks at me with a serious expression on her face, and I realized that now is not the time for jokes
"Listen, kid, jokes are jokes, but at the moment you are seriously unstable" she says, poured from one place to another "Your main weapon is your emotions and only thanks to them, your magic begins to shine, but ..." with these words, she abruptly approaches my face "You don't you control everything that happens, it's completely random. And therefore, your main task is to take control of your own emotions and turn them into a controlled weapon."
I nod at her every suggestion, "Yes, I agree with that and I think I have to show my best tomorrow."
Night slowly turns his head, showing that I'm wrong "Here I have to disagree with you. I think we should hide our potential."
I looked at her with a puzzled look, "Why is that?" I ask her
And at that moment, a small window in the door opens (it was in the floor) and a tray of food is pushed through it "Dinner" says a voice outside the door
Looking towards the door, I noticed a tray of food, or what I think is left of it. Coming closer, I was able to better appreciate this dish, it consisted of some gray objects and an unpleasant smell came from it, from which tears came from my eyes by themselves
"Damn it, better give me back the garlic soup," I thought with grief
But unexpectedly for me, a quiet screeching began to be heard from the door, coming closer to them, I could see through a small window, a familiar muzzle and it was Scales, in whose mouth a note was visible
"I've already forgotten about her," I thought, "At least she's free and can go anywhere," I reach out and take the note from her
"Woof" she barks happily and as a thank you, I pat her on the head
After not paying much attention, she pulls away from me and disappears into oblivion again. Left alone again (almost) I examine the note addressed to me, unfolding it, I begin to read
"Hello Silent, it's me Yut. I know what situation you are in, but we can't help in any way, because they may consider it help from the outside, I'm sorry (for the same reason, Yon can't come to visit you). Also, Thorax gave me the news that you plan to escape from here and I don't mind helping you, no matter how rude it sounds, you don't belong here and therefore, together with Thorax, I will help you escape from our “family”, but I ask you, don't tell my sister and this for two reasons, she does not know how to keep secrets and I'm afraid, for some reason, she will even resist it, I warned you. P.S. I'm shocked by your dog, is she even from our planet?"
After finishing reading the letter, Night flies past me and yawns tiredly "Today, you read quite a lot, don't you?" I nod to her question "I'm lucky that the language of this world is similar to mine, it would be hard for you to read all this"
"I understand what you want to say, "I roll my eyes," I'm telling you again, thank you for teaching me to read and write, but please stop reminding me every time. I'm not saying you're a bad teacher, but your teaching methods are pretty strict."
"And you will say it, I like to listen to your words of gratitude" with a slight smile she tells me, but then she turns away and sadly whispers so that I don't hear "I like to be needed by someone"
I didn't hear what she said there, but I decided to keep silent, because I know that at such moments, it's better not to distract her
But she quickly returns her emotions to their former ones and changes the subject of the conversation
"Back to your question “Why”, we shouldn't stay here, and if you show everyone how strong you are, on the contrary, you will attract attention to yourself that we don't need" her gaze becomes stricter, and her voice is more serious "Strong ponies, ahem, more precisely people, stand out more brightly and attract attention, everyone wants to be equal to them level, and the weak are not needed by anyone, the weak become the shadow of the strong, but..." here she has a predatory smile, in which her fangs were visible "But we, on our weakness, at the right time, turn this game upside down" Night inexorably begins to laugh ominously
I watched and waited for her to stop laughing, even though her laughter gives me goosebumps, but I'm glad she's in a good mood
Calming down a little, she continued "We have pawns on this ship, they will help us at the right moment, and until that hour comes, we will save up our strength and create more nightmares on this ship, so they will become even weaker"
After listening to her plan, I didn't like one thing and I decide to ask, "What are we going to do tomorrow? That's not how I learned to transform."
Her expression immediately changes to a rougher and more thoughtful one, but soon, she snatches the last paper from me with her magic and burns it in a blue flame, after which, her gaze becomes softer "Let's see" she answers me smiling
I watched the last grains of the letter burn up in blue flames and scatter all over the room, then I turned my gaze to her and wanted to say something, but I didn't have the strength to argue with her, I didn't want to anymore and just nodded wearily at her. Lately, I've noticed that I stop seeing something strange in this, I stop understanding the differences between bad and good, if earlier something inside told me about such differences, now Night's ambitions overshadow everything that I thought was right. Night changes me, but I can't figure out for good or for bad, now I can't give myself an answer
Night looked at me as I was thinking about something, then at the food that was in my cabin and back at me "As I understand it, you won't eat?" she asks me, having received my negative answer, she continues "Well, if you're not going to eat, then it's time for you to sleep, I can see that you're tired"
I looked at her incredulously, "You're not going to let me sleep in peace, are you?"
After receiving a nod to my answer, I exhale wearily and lie down on my bed and, surprisingly for myself, quickly fall asleep
In a dream
I open my eyes expecting to see the forest I know, but what I saw made me go into shock. The landscape around me was not recognizable, the forest ceased to be friendly to me, the wind blew strongly in my face, which made it difficult for me to breathe, all the night colors of nature were transformed into more gloomy and sinister. Looking around, I tried to find Night, but I only saw her frozen silhouette
"Night" I shouted out of concern and ran to her as quickly as possible
When I reached it, I saw only a gray statue in its full height, looking around it, I did not see anything that said that it was alive
I was about to panic, but then that very altar came into my field of vision. The altar, which had been standing motionless all this time, suddenly began to sparkle with black lightning, and those in turn destroyed the earth around it. The ball that stood on the altar soared into the air and whirled feverishly along a trajectory I did not understand. But when he noticed me, he immediately stopped and only the white dot that was inside the ball did not stop calming down
My body was completely numb from such moments and only I was able to take control of my body, the ball moved towards me at an indescribable speed. As soon as a part of my body touched him, I was electrocuted again in indescribable agony and strange fragments of someone else's memory flew into my head again, as last time
***
Opening my eyes, I notice that I am standing in some park unfamiliar to me, there were very large and diverse trees around, ranging from black and white with leaves and ending with long trunks on which only green needles were visible at the top

"Where am I?" I wonder how I got here.
But I don't get an answer to my question, and only an unexpected conversation of people I don't know attracts my attention.
Not knowing where to go, I decide to go in the direction of the sound. Passing by trees and tall bushes, I notice people in the middle of this forest
Hiding behind bushes so as not to attract other people's attention, I see strange people, or rather tall and black silhouettes that surrounded a little boy. The boy was not tall, his body color was corporeal, and his hair was the color of dark hay, which I saw, not looking closely, I noticed that this boy had tears coming from his eyes
Out of curiosity, I sharpen my ears and try to hear what they are saying
"Tell me, where did you put the money?" The first rude voice shouts at the boy
"I saw him take them," says the second, but lower "I didn't like him right away"
"I didn't take anything" the boy shouts in tears "I myself heard how you conspired and came up with a reason to get me"
"Look at him" says the third, "It seems that someone's ears are growing from the wrong place"
"If he has heard, then we will not play this performance" says the first one "But I know that you have something, give everything you have, or you will regret it" he rubs his hands
"I don't have anything" the boy also answers "What have I done to you?"
"Close your metal mouth" the second one shuts up "We see that if there is money for briquettes, then there is something else"
"This has nothing to do with it" the boy screams, but immediately gets hit in the stomach, from which he falls to the ground and drops something
"Look guys" says the striker and picks up something from the ground "And this kid is a collector, look, he has collectible cards of that cartoon" and shows the others
"Why do we need such garbage?" Says the first one "We only need money"
The boy, who was lying on the ground all this time, starts to get up, holding his stomach and with tears, quietly says "Please give it back, I need it"
"If you need it, then take it away" and tears the cards into two parts "Oh!" he is surprised "I think I misunderstood you" and the whole group starts laughing
While the black silhouettes were laughing, the boy watched the torn cards fall to the ground and unexpectedly for me and everyone, he throws himself at these hooligans
The black silhouettes did not expect such a response from such a boy, but not fortunately for the boy, he was weaker and in the minority. The fight ended quickly for him, because it turned into a pure beating, all three silhouettes attacked one boy and beat him with their feet and beat him wherever they could
The beating did not last long and soon, the silhouettes disappeared into the void and only the sobbing boy remained lying on the ground
I felt uneasy at such an injustice, I slowly get out of the ambush and approach the boy to help him, but only I wanted to touch him, he evaporates in black smoke like the rest
"What's going on?" I ask into the void.
But the answer was a strange whisper that swirled around me.:
"It hurts, it's scary, it's insulting, it's not fair, if I could, why me, WHY me" the whisper turned to a scream and then I couldn't make out
Everything was going very strangely and from the wild scream, I close my eyes
***
Unexpectedly for me, the screaming around me subsides, opening my eyes, I notice myself in an old place, but it still remained in a terrible state
When I look up, I notice the same black sphere with a white dot inside, and she patiently looked at me until I noticed her
I was terrified of her, I was afraid to get terrible pain from her again, but unexpectedly for me, it spoke in a low and hoarse voice
"AlOnE. PuRpOsE. DrEaM." it says in a strange voice "HeLp. SuRvIvE. AdApT."
When it finished, strange fragments of someone else's memory began to seep into my head, and my body began to vibrate, but this time it didn't hurt so much. When it was over, the black sphere soared into the air and headed back to the altar
Landing on the altar, it began to hiss and before going back to sleep, it whispered "DrEaM. MaGiC. EvIl. ReCeIvE."
I was sitting on the ground and I was completely shaking from what was happening, looking at my hand and the only thing I understood was "It pumped something into me" and looking again at the already quiet altar, I wonder "What is it?"
Unexpectedly for me, something touches me in the shoulder area and with wild fear and fright, I fly out of my seat and respond with a swing of my leg in the direction of my illness
My foot quickly attacked in that direction with a red train, but I noticed late that a familiar Night was standing there and looking at me in surprise. I thought I was going to hit her hard, but fortunately she quickly turned into a blue blob of smoke and my foot flies past her
I was completely shocked by what I did, and even more so by how I did it.
"FEEL!" Night shouts at me and his former appearance is being formed again "What do you allow yourself?"
Noticing that everything is back as it was and that Night was standing in front of me as if nothing had happened, I immediately rush to hug her
"What luck that everything is fine with you" I tell her and try to hug her, she pulls away from me "I was so scared that something had happened to you"
"Stop it quickly" she orders me "What could have happened to me?"
Stopping trying to hug her, I sit down on the ground and tell her "I'll tell you everything now" and explain the whole story that I saw
At the time of my story, Night periodically looked towards the altar and did not show her disinterest at all and listened attentively to me
After listening to my story, she did not answer anything, just nodded and began to think about what was happening
"What do you think about it?" I ask her a question.
"I can't answer anything clear, but I can say for sure, it has its own plans for you," she answers me, "But I wonder how you managed to hit me like that from a U-turn?"
Not knowing how to explain, I just answer how I felt "I do not know how I did it, but my body, it seemed to know what needed to be done, I just felt the danger and my body reacted to it on its own"
"I see," she answers me, but then she looked at me predatorily, which sent goosebumps down my back "Then I know what we're going to do now" horn lights up and all sorts of objects appear out of the air, starting from stones and ending with sharp knives "Well, we'll start Experimenting"
Looking at this picture, something inside me shrinks and as quickly as possible into a flock from the ground "Are you serious?" I'm yelling at her "I'm tired right now"
Night continued to smile and said "As I said, in desperate moments, the full potential of a person is shown" and a stone flies in my direction
I barely manage to dodge him and fall to the ground face down from inexperience
"Stop it," I shout, "You're not going to overdo it, are you?"
She gets a predatory grin and this time, a knife flies at me. I realized that she wasn't joking or playing games with me, but I was afraid, afraid of getting terrible pain again, and so I remember experimenting with my emotions, trying to concentrate on what I feel most right now, and that's fear. Now fear drives me more than ever, and now I see a sharp knife flying up to me, which is inexorably flying in my direction
As I concentrate on my fear, I feel like I'm releasing my magic, my eyes start to flicker red, and my body starts to move on its own. And so the knife took a couple of centimeters to pierce me, but my body, at a speed indescribable to me and flexibility unexpected to me, rolls to the side and with a slight push I push myself off the ground and land right on my feet
Night watches my actions in surprise, but does not lose any excitement and I would have known what it would lead to
"Well done, boy," she says happily, "Now let's raise the difficulty level" and several objects are already flying at me
I'm not losing my attitude and the spark in my eyes, my body dodges all her attacks, that at some point Night loses all the excitement and stops throwing dozens of objects at me
"That's it, stop," she says, "You're doing great, at the moment you were able to take control of your fear and I'll tell you more, you used your source, not mine. But the only thing that gives you away is your eyes, when you started using your magic, there was a red glow in your eyes. I recommend that you wear glasses."
I was lying on the ground all tired, even though my body was moving on its own, but the fatigue was mine, but for some reason I did not understand, the smile did not leave my face
Night comes up to me and bends down so that our eyes cross on the same line and to my surprise, she smiled slyly at me
"You did a good job," she says, and for some reason I didn't like it "Now you've mastered one emotion well, but we still have at least two left, and therefore" she pulls her predatory smile again "Your dream is not over yet"
I nervously swallowed my saliva and already imagined how my dream was turning into a nightmare

Author's Note
In this chapter, the main character is faced with new problems, but at least he begins to understand the essence of his power, but mysterious visions and a strange ball haunt our hero

Yeah, I totally screwed up the schedule. It was planned to release the chapter once a week, but due to the onset of winter, the plans turned upside down. And therefore, I plan and will try to release a chapter once a month next year, I have reasons for this
Also, I decided to open an album of my drawings for this FF, I will post there some characters and moments that will happen in these chapters (both in the past and in the future). Actually, the drawings, it's too loud to say, for the most part there will be sketches of how I see it. Here is the link: Album
I'll start with a sketch of the Main character 
In addition, I plan to update or supplement the pictures in the old chapters on my own (I'm pretty embarrassed to do all this, but I like the idea itself). But that's next year.
Feel free to comment
Wait, further – more
