Legion Chapter 14 Novels & Stories

The boy had no idea where the wetness came from because nowhere up around where he stood was wet. The boy felt a sudden sadness for the poor animal, so he held out his right hand, palm down, and suddenly, his arm glowed with a strange purple color. The purple color that had started to glow around his arm seemed to wiggle around it as if it were alive in its own way. Slowly, the wolf began to rise and out of the pit, with the boy switching his hand’s position as the wolf floated out of the pit. The boy laid him softly on the ground just a few feet away from the opening with a wave of his hand.

Nathan quickly interjected with tangible vexation at the sound of my father's choice of words, earning himself a scowl from him. "You shut up," He swiftly bit back at him with a pointed look, making him bristle as he peered between the two of us, but thankfully didn't continue arguing. Blowing out a tired sigh, my father lowered himself into a crouching position so that he could be at the same eye-level with me, resting his elbows over his knees as he started to explain, "Carina, we're...You, and me and your sister, we're not humans either. We share an ancient bloodline, the shaman bloodline. Our veins are filled with magic,"

She had stayed in the observation room while her grandparents and uncles were introduced to the boys. Hunter stood beside her, trying to find any quality that his daughter shared with these two boys. They were belligerent and unruly; they made snide comments that you could tell hurt Marigold a lot. Angel nodded at Hunter and walked past him into the room. She looked at her grandparents and said, “That’s enough, take the counselor with you, and give me a minute with them.”

“It’s… a message.” “Or a challenge,” Kaima added, voice tense. Siran turned toward them, resolve firming. “Then we follow. We understand. And we prepare. Because the first true test of the global bloom and of humanity itself is beginning. That is where Chapter 31 starts.” The trio descended the ridge, moving toward Hollowreach itself. Every step was charged with anticipation, each thread of bloom-thread around them vibrating in rhythm with the distant spiral. “We’ve awakened Iluren,” Ari said softly. “Now we see what the world does with it.”

I ask just before we make a sharp turn to a wide hallway. “Alpha Daymion has to settle a few things; seal the hole that has gaped since his departure.” “Hmm,” I nod, immediately pushing thoughts about the old man out of my head. “How did we really manage to get here? Last I remembered we were in a cart.” Sir Brak looks at me with one eye closed, the open eye’s brow perked. It is more of a ‘Please do not tell me you don’t know’ kind of look. “The thing about Supernaturalism is that it deals with uncanny stuff like Portals.”

“We need to strike back and show them we won’t be hunted!” “You should remember that not all humans are hunters. This means we aren’t completely sure of whom we’re going after exactly. Hell, I don’t even think they have a specific territory. They’re scatted across the globe. Some of us have business outside our territory, we might even have them as business partners. This is why we have to be subtle about hose hunters and risk exposing more of our kids.” Alpha Darius retorted, his voice calm and cool, his cold eyes spread around the room briefly before meeting Alpha Gregor’s gaze.

I tried not to notice how red her eyes looked or how she frowned up at me as I turned to climb the stairs. Safe in my room, I sat on the edge of my bed wishing the world would stop spinning. I thought of the lessons Poe had taught me. I held up my hand, focusing my will on my out-stretched palm. Red energy formed, sparking between my fingers. I willed it into a shape, forcing the power into a ball of crackling red light. Sweat broke out across my forehead, and I sighed, releasing the power. It vanished in a wisp of smoke. My skin didn't feel quite as hot, the room didn't sway as much as it did as when I walked into it. I sighed, pulling my legs up onto the bed, as I stretched out.

he asked, turning his gaze back to the little girl, his voice soft and encouraging. Lily stretched out her small arm with care, clutching her teddy bear tighter with the other, as if that simple hug held all the comfort she needed. “First, we’ll set up the ‘magic portal,’” Vincenzo explained, holding up the catheter. “It’s the tunnel that’ll let the courage potion flow right into you, making you even stronger.” Lily let out a soft giggle, and for a moment, her fear hid behind the whimsical world Vincenzo crafted for her.

“I'm tired of hiding you in the dark.” Rhea looked at her father, then at the needle and then at me, she knew that the game was over, but she wasn't going to lose alone. “He's been infected!” She screamed, pointing the needle at me. “This …..this thing attacked him! And got the commander under a scent thrall!” But the council wasn't looking at me anymore. They were looking at the label on the IV bags still visible in the open safe behind her. The ice had cracked, I looked at Rhea and for the first time I didn't feel like a victim. I leaned into Kieran, my eyes meeting hers with a cold, terrifying clarity.

The faint image of Morgana’s shadowy form appeared before them, her mocking laughter echoing through the depths. “This isn’t over,” Alex said through gritted teeth. “No,” Morgana replied, her voice dripping with malice. “It’s only just begun.” End of Chapter 31 This chapter brings the group closer to completing their mission while intensifying Morgana’s influence over Alex. The battle with the leviathan and the stabilization of the second anchor sets the stage for the final, most dangerous challenge ahead.
