Aura Aura

The quest for power

Ken P.O.V

I've finally mastered the ghost blade technique and modified it with a ghosted cyclone technique, where I spin like a tornado in tremendous speed with my ghost blade technique active. It can really be destructive. I just left the home of Dylan Cole who seems like a really strong fellow. But, still he's no match for the future wind master hehe. We had a little training or rather spar if I may say and I learnt some few tricks during our spar. While I was on my way to Dylan's home I remembered I heard of an ancient wind temples during my journey to the mountains were some men were discussing about the destruction of the temples of wind. I can't believe I didn't remember this earlier or maybe I was rather too tired to really hear what they were saying. Anyways, I wish to go there but the only problem is I don't know where to find it. I sighed while walking aimlessly around the village expecting some kind of miracle. I heaved another huge sigh remembering the annoying statement of a guy named Knoxy Jones 'Triangle of life gives you power of god' he said. There are no shortcuts to anything he has to learn that and I wonder why that bothers me ahh!! The anger was visible in my face. I spotted a paper or rather some sort of map lying around an old ally, which threw me out of my soliloquy. My curiosity had the best of me so I went ahead and picked it. It had some markings on it and showed different clans with their names written, it wasn't clear because of the wrinkled nature of the paper but I managed anyways. Something caught my eyes, it was written in small letters "wnd tmpls" some of the letters had cleared off so it was had reading. I decided to take my chance and journey there, the miracle I was hoping for finally happened? I chuckled in my head.

I began my journey, heading north as directed in the map. I was moving as fast as I could hoping to get there before nightfall. I had all I needed in my bag pack so I didn't have to worry much about anything, money wasn't also a problem if need be. A man from the orphanage usually gives me money. I didn't know why, maybe because he likes me. He usually visit on weekends, it's like a routine. I've been saving the money ever since, basically, I had everything I needed for now. I walked for hours with no sign of the temple, my body was giving up especially after crossing a huge river, my legs were worn out, but I managed to climb the hill before me and intended to rest there. I looked down from the hill and in the horizon, I saw a big derelict temple. A renewed strength flooded my body as I saw the temple, I was filled with joy and rejuvenated energy, running as fast as my leg could carry towards the temple. The temple was pretty old and abandoned, vines all over the place which made it hard for me getting in as I reached. I brought out my touch from my bag, navigating myself through the temple trying to locate the archives. They were cobwebs everywhere, the place has been really abandoned. I kept on walking aimlessly, my leg hit on something hard which made me trip and fall. I used my hand to wage me from falling to the ground. My hand then pushed a weak cobble stone which I used to wage myself from falling, opening up a passage behind me. "Awesome" I muttered. I got up and with the touch leading the way, I entered the passage. "Cooooool" I exclaimed as I looked around. I was fascinated by the hieroglyphics of ancient wind warriors in battle and sees demonstration of many amazing techniques on the wall. This is heaven. I reached the end of the passage and entered a small room it led to. There was a huge scroll in the centre of the room on top of an elevated platform. This room was different from the other, there was no pictures whatsoever, only the scroll. The scroll could be my break through to being a wind master. I took the scroll outside and looked at it. It contained many wind techniques and method to train for them. This was jackpot!!! I read some of the techniques there, wind style: blooming orchid. This techniques allows the user release a huge amount of pressured air from the users mouth. "Hmm" I smiled, well I have to begin training.

Kamza P.O.V

"Bye, I will miss you guys" I bade my clan goodbye. I was in search of a legendary master to train me, I want to be the best fire user in my clan no matter my age and I have to achieve that before I return. I was gifted with a tiger and a dragon when I was born and now, they only appear when I need them. I was on hero, my dragon flying to this village called Aura Aura many people said he left to there, the master I seek, some said he just like the food there. All in all, I have to find him, but where do I start? Maybe, I should ask people. I walked into the forest looking for a cave were I could rest. I suddenly spotted two people discussing in an open space in the forest, I decided to try asking one more time, so I walked up to them "Hello?" I said with a smile, reaching where they were. "Hey" they both greeted "Do you know anyone called Henkel?" I asked, Henkel was the name of the fire master. They both nodded in a negative manner "Damn! I need to train with him" I blurted my concern. "I can train you, if you want. I'm a fire user mostly blue flame" one of them replied. Wow another blue fire user? That's interesting, maybe he can help me train after all. "I'm kamo kamza, nice to meet you sir" I offered my hand to shake and he took my hands in his "Billy Johnson". The other guy smiled at us "and I'm Simon, I will leave you to get to know each other and I will just go perfect a technique". He flew away, leaving us alone. "So Billy, you use blue fire?" I started. He nodded "I think I'm the only one left". He didn't know I was also a blue fire user hehe, I smiled "I'm also a fire user and also use blue flames, the only one who does in my clan". I could see the excitement in his eyes when he heard I was a fire user and also uses blue flames. "So, you don't know Henkel?" He shook his head "nope, but we can begin training. My method might be unorthodox" I smiled "let's start already." He smiled at me "first off, fire beams" he said, he pointed at the ground not to close to us and shot with a blue fire beam and it caused a catastrophic effect. Almost like a mini explosion, I had to step back a bit. Was that really a fire beam? This man is strong. "Now try, focus all your fire energy to your finger so that the fire can make a strong connection" I listened to him with all eargerness, and began trying what he said. I took a deep breath and focused my energy unto my finger, pointing at the place he just blasted. I tried releasing that pented up energy but it burned my finger, it was as if my finger would had explode "ouuuchhh" I yelled. I wasn't ready to stop, still with the pain. I focused the energy again towards my finger, the blue flames already appearing around it. "Just release, don't add to much pressure" Billy said. I released the energy immediately and blasted the spot. It wasn't as strong as Billy's but at least it cut a tree. "Meet me here later, tomorrow maybe. For the meantime train and master the technique" I smiled and nodded. Billy left. I needed a place to stay for the meantime, I guess I didn't plan this all the way through. I summoned hero and laid under his wings to rest.

"Hey kid" a familiar voice called out waking me up from sleep. It was morning already. I stretched on hero's body and slowly opened my eyes to the view before me. The forest was noisy with the birds flying everywhere making noises with their tiny voices. Billy stood before me with his blue eyes staring at hero, I guess he was curious about him. He wore a white T-shirt and black trousers and a black leather sandals, his black her was messy and spiky. He looked pretty young, I didn't notice his physique appearance much yesterday probably because it was night but to see he was young and this strong is indeed fascinating. "A dragon, huh?" He asked still fixing his gaze on the sleeping hero "Yes, his name is hero I also have a tiger, Nero. They are my helpers". He just nodded still looking at hero "How do you summon them?" He asked "I used hand signs and they appear from my mana, the process is pretty fast. Their Mana and mine is merged that way they can stay within me always but I can't use their abilities during battles I just have to summon them" He turned to me and smiled "Well, I have something interesting for today training, follow me" he said and began running and I followed behind releasing hero in the process. We reached a wall of burning flame in the middle of the forests "Only fire users can get through the wall of flame, but I made it a door to my home. If a non fire user or weak fire user try to pass he would burn to death" he said walking through the wall, I was left in awe and fear. What if I'm weak? would I truly burn? I just have to try. I closed my eyes and ran through it, luckily I didn't die, phew. "Master, why did they form something like a fire wall?" I asked curiously wanting to know more about this fire wall "fire people are protective people, they hate Intruders so it's not surprising" he chuckled "However, your training today is to make contact with the fire monster" fire monster? Billy is really awesome and strong he really knows about fire people. I watched him sit in a meditating position in the centre of the room, his room was colourful filled with pictures of various fire users or I guessed they were, the wall actually took us to his room or rather a training room because I couldn't see any windows or bed, just a plain white room decorated with pictures. I wonder how the rest of the house looks. "Fire monster?" I asked and immediately a huge lion like beast appeared near me it's whole body was radiating with blue flame, I have never seen anything like that before. "Make a bond with it" Billy smiled. I looked at the monster and approached it with caution, "heyyy, I'm a friend" I said with smiles on my face trying to soothe the beast. It used its huge claw and hit me hard pushing me to the wall, sword of blue flames began appearing round the beast "hey!! I'm a friend" I yelled but it kept growling and ever ready to attack. I slowly stood up and hold tight to my sword "I guess we would battle this out" I muttered, but in a flash the monster paws slammed my chest and I tried stabbing but my sword just went through. I fell hard to the ground dropping my sword. It's this how I'm going to die? No!! I have to unleash my ultimate move since my sword won't do any harm, I said to myself. I got up again and watch the beast size me up I brought out a shuriken and threw it to the monster. The shuriken turns into a flaming dragon engulfing the beast whole and then the dragon blows up. The explosion caused me to have a hard fall, and everywhere covered in smoke. I couldn't see anything at all, that was my ultimate move Dragon shuriken. I could barely move now. The monster came out from the smoke unharmed glaring at me, I couldn't believe my eyes, how is this possible? It shot fire balls at me and with the little strength in me I managed to move away before it hits. I can't quit now, everyone is counting on me. I stood up again and before I could realize anything, I was hit hard upwards on my gut which made me cough blood. I have to get stronger, that's why I'm here anyways. Tears flickered in my eyes. While I was in mid air, the monster jumped towards me to finish me off. I held up my sword and blue flames appeared at the edges "I will try!!" I yelled slicing it. The monster disappeared and some blue Mana hovered around my sword, I have never done this technique before. "Hmm, that sword" master Billy walks out from the midst and the room began changing "The beast now lies within your sword, that sword is rare boy" I was shocked, would he have really killed me? I was too weak to talk anyways. "How did the room change?" I managed to say "Oh, the core I took from the fire lands... That's a story for another day you need to rest" I nodded and he smiled "next training would be... " he opened a scroll on his hand "the two oldest wolves of the fire element".

IT WAS THE TOURNAMENT DAY 1;

A fight was already set, people far and near came to watch. The tournament field was like a stadium with spectators everywhere you look. Men, women and children all present. The commentator voice was heard silencing the cheers. "Good day, finest people of Aura Aura. Welcome to the long awaited tournament, this is the first battle of this tournament that will test our warriors strength. The tournament will begin shortly sit back and relax. Our first fight would be, konton and nightmare Xavier" he ended with that and cheers, applause filled the air. Nightmare and konton both walked to the battlefield hearing there name being called. Everyone was cheering them. "And now the battle begins" he said. The both warriors took their stance. Konton was the first to attack. He ran towards his opponent with his sword in his hand attempting to cut her neck but, she easily evaded by bending and then attempted to kick him. Immediately he saw her leg he moved his sword fast enough to chop off her leg, which got a mixed reaction from the crowd. She flew backward in pain and her leg began regenerating, her eyes turned white and it looked as if she wasn't in control. Knives from no where appears around her and began moving at great speed to her opponent. He noticed the danger and began swinging his sword deflecting the knives he released a lightning charge from his sword and the wave sent the knives scattering away. He jumped and pierced his sword to the ground and a bright light shone in the battle field, everyone in surprise of what happened, they were murmurs as the light dispersed. The lady nightmare was on the ground barely able to move while konton on the other hand stood with a bold smile. The commentator spoke again "Konton wins, since his opponent can't move. This is just the beginning of this thrill". That announced the end of the first match while the other fights that would take place were showed on a huge screen. The commentator spoke again "other fights to take place, Dylan vs Toxic, Kamza vs Knoxy, Ken vs Jay, Diablo vs Daniel! Oh! Oh! This is fun!". He said

Mist P.O.V

It's been some days now and I haven't found someone interesting yet, maybe I shouldn't have killed that boy. I heard the first battle of the tournament took place, people talk to much this days. Anyways, why I couldn't go watch the tournament was because of this new energy I've been tracing, it seemed interesting and it led me to an old temple away from the village. I moved closer to inspect the temple but suddenly pushed away by a wind torrent. I landed on my feet but that nearly knocked me off balance. I moved to were the torrent was coming from and it led me behind the temple, there, I saw a boy training his hair spiky and brown, he also didn't were a shirt on and for a kid he has a nice a body build. He was a bit dark skinned and a bit too young. He was sweating and seating on the floor drinking water from a can. He might finally be the person I'm looking for, with so much potential at his disposal. I smirked and walked up to him. "Hey kid?" I said to him gaining his attention "You look like someone who wants more power and wants to grow stronger". He smiled, I was getting to him. "Who are you?" He stood up facing me curiously "I'm Mist, your worst nightmare" I chuckled. He suddenly became alert "my worst nightmare is weakness, if you are that then you don't seem to worth much" I smiled and chuckled in my head, this kid is indeed interesting I really have to get him."I came in search of strong warriors, if you come with me it's assured you'll get more powerful and stronger" I said to him with a noble smile, he seemed to be interested "come to you to where?" He asked. "The dark lord". I let the cat out of the bag. "I'll pass" he suddenly said folding his arm and tilting his head slightly away. "Imagine the power" I tried convincing him *Power??" He chuckled "more like s*****y, I know how this works. I agree, he gives me power, I sell my soul to him, he makes me his pawn" he yawned obviously trying to piss me off. He sounds smarter than he looks and he is a bit cocky too, but I can't just let this talent waste, I can't fail the dark lord he has high hopes on me. Besides, if I fail I'm dead so killing them is an option for me. I touched the tree nearby obtaining it's power "The hard way it is" he just sighed which pissed me off. I touched the ground and vines erupt around him tying him up "last chance" I said, I didn't have to hurt this talent but if he tramples on my toes I won't hesitate. "It's quite comfy in here" he yawned again. This annoying little brat! I tightened up the vines tying him squeezing the life out of him "I will leave you rot there" I was no longer in a good mood. The kid managed to release wind energy from his body destroying the vines, he is truly strong the perfect recruit but whyyy, why won't he come with me. I stamped my foot on the ground and more vines erupt attempting to grab him but he was fast he unsheathed his swords and with swift motion cutting and evading he truly has talent but he shouldn't get on my bad side. "If the dark lord gave you power and you are still weak?" He chuckled "not interested" I snapped, how dare he insult me like that "You shall die!" I smirked evily, touching the earth and immediately the earth began to quake. A dome appeared from the ground and trap him, I then unleash my true element, fire heating up the dome to a very high degree that would probably kill him. If he manage to survive, he is strong and I will keep hunting him. I chuckled and left to my next victim. I really shouldn't be killing this kids but, they should learn respect and fear power. If I can't find a strong one, then I would take the weak. He just needs recruits right?
