All Chapters of Blue Thunder: The Rise of the Legend - book 1: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

Once upon a time, Sethbe, the son of a spirit god, had an affair with Mathilda, a Light Fay Priestess, which resulted in a child. War was raging between the children of the gods: between those of darkness and those of light. Sethbe and his brothers, Liedte and Zienkhe, were overseers in the darkness. They could not have people know about the child. Mirrhia, a loyal servant of the brothers, took the child and disappeared before anyone realized that birth happened.She made a quick stop at the brothers’ family temple in the middle of the Egyptian desert, to present the child officially to Ghar, the brothers’ creator, protected by the watchful eyes of the temple guardians. With the baby tucked in her arms, she then left into the night, without a trace.August 8, 1980Anita picked up Coralis in her arms and climbed up the stairs to take her to bed. In her eyes, Coralis was the best thing that ever happened to her, better than the night she accepted Donny as her husband and mate. She droppe

July 15, 1990Coralis and Nadilla were excited. They were about to go shopping for their school supplies. Their list wasn’t long, but there were so many books on it, that they hoped that none of them were heavy: they had no one to help carry them to school or across the mall.As promised, Vallia met with them a few times during the year. Coralis wasn’t sure if it helped because she ignored the other kids to avoid getting into conflicts. The trial and the weeks before it were a little more challenging, but Roberto gave her something to suppress her emotions during that month: it wasn’t healthy, but they couldn’t risk any incident at the courthouse or with the authorities. He made sure that Vallia met with Coralis when the elixir wore off.Ms. Wagner wasn’t too keen about letting a 10-year-old girl go shopping alone with a 9-year-old, but Roberto had filed the correct paperwork to grant them permission to be out for the day and made sure that a driver would pick them up and drive them ba

October 3, 1990It was 20 minutes past curfew. Coralis, Victoria and Maribel felt antsy and restless. They sat in class for the entire day, studying various theories and histories, but no practice of any kind. Moreover, Coralis and Maribel had to stay in detention for an hour after classes ended for the day: at lunch, they decided to race each other on their flying stick and lost track of time, arriving late for their elemental history class.Their roommates were doing their homework, but they were done with theirs, so they decided to sneak outside and go for a walk around the building, just to stretch out a little bit. They figured if they stayed within the shadows, they wouldn’t be seen by anyone, and they wanted to try out a night vision spell.It didn’t take them long to reach one of the backdoors. Coralis was about to pull a piece of paper to jam between the ledge and the lock, so that the door wouldn’t lock behind them and they could go back in using the same door, when she notic

August 25, 1991Erik, Henry and Coralis were getting ready to head back to school.“Coralis, I don’t know how I missed that detail when we were filing the paperwork for you, but was your birthday really on August 1st?” said Kief.“Yes, I am now 11,” said Coralis.“Wait wait, DID WE REALLY MISS YOUR BIRTHDAY?” said Erik and Henry at the same time.“Had we known, we would have done something to celebrate it. Why didn’t you tell us?” said Kief.“Because I don’t think it matters.”Barla and Kief didn’t like that answer. They decided that if Coralis came to their house again the next summer, they would do something for her birthday. Meanwhile, they would try to see if she could come to their house for the End-of-Year holidays: their boys started to see her as a sister.Coralis was happy to see her friends again, but the uneasy feeling she had at the Montreal airport returned: something was watching her. She didn’t know how to explain it.At the end of October, she mentioned it to Martha, bu

April 22, 1994Every 4 years, there was an inter-school flyball competition between the strongest teams in the world. During March, regional leagues would host small tournaments to determine which teams will participate. The United Kingdom had 4 flyball teams: two at the Glasgow Elemental School, and two at the Imperial Elemental School. This year, The Brazen Bolts were selected to represent their region at the inter-school flyball competition held in France.Erik and Henry were looking forward to it. They didn’t get to participate in the last inter-school competition because their team hadn’t been selected. They heard that scouts for the national team would attend and keep tabs on the players who got their attention. Coralis was also excited at the idea of scouts attending the competition: she was hoping that one day, she would be selected to play for the national team.It was a 6-day event with 16 teams competing against each other. The 16 teams were subdivided into four groups. The
