She was screaming in the fire ball and I could smell burning flesh and I knew that it was actually hurting her but then she raised her arms up and the shadows appeared from behind her and approached me with significant force and knocked me off my feet and I dropped the fireball. I got back up and the shadows were surrounding me and I couldn't see the witch anywhere and I used the wind element to force the shadows to move. They fought against it but I put more power behind it forcing them to move and they retreated. I wasn't scared of them anymore. And now I knew that I could fight the shadows as well. And now they knew that. I wasn't as weak as I was. But now they knew that I had training. I

In the shadows of creation, it whispered to itself: > If she can make light, I can make shadow. If she can give breath, I can take it. --- The Second Lesson Lunara felt it—a tremor, faint but unmistakable. She turned toward the dark horizon beyond the Heart’s glow. The fabric of space there seemed to ripple as if something were drawing breath that did not belong. “Already?” she murmured. “So soon?” The Heart pulsed nervously. > Is something wrong? She smiled faintly. “No. This is what it means to live. Even your shadow must seek to understand itself.”

I could not tell if the water on my face was rain or tears. I had no idea where I was going. I just wandered through the endless night, wrapped in the downpour. Suddenly, a blinding headlight flashed in front of me. The car kept getting closer and closer until I could not keep my eyes open. As the speeding car came at me, a wild thought suddenly crossed my mind. If I just let it hit me, maybe the pain would finally end. I did not move, just closed my eyes and waited for the massive impact to shatter me into pieces. However, the expected impact never came.

Chapter 33 – Blood and Light The air shattered as the shadows lashed out, their jagged strands of light whipping like living blades. Kaidën pushed Akira back just in time as one of them sliced through the stone where she had been standing, sending sparks flying. Her father’s voice resonated, not loud but somehow echoing everywhere at once. “Do you see now? The shadows don’t destroy—they obey. They belong to us.” Kaidën lunged forward, his blade flashing in a blur of precise and ruthless movements, but every strike was met with the writhing coils of light that her father wielded like an extension of himself.

No. The shadow continued: You were always the light. It pointed at Kael. And I was always the darkness. Then it looked at Lyra. But she made one mistake. Lyra raised her sword. What?

It was quiet for a few minutes and he finally said, “Tilly and I have absolutely no secrets. People like you and me … we can’t be with just anyone. It’s either one night stands, fake short term relationships or nothing. You don’t just find a Tilly on every corner. A woman that will accept you, that if you are totally honest with her … won’t be afraid of you. I never had someone to … to help me. To direct me, and it damn near killed me. I wouldn’t wish it on anyone. I call it my dark shadow … it’s a part of me, but it’s a part of me I can mostly keep hidden, that I can control.

As far as she knew, she just entered this very room; then there was darkness, followed by a crushing light. What was that all about? “It was your fears. I’m impressed that you were the first one to overcome it.” Her brows furrowed, but she did not dare take her eyes off Mister Porche as he pounded the wall in front of them, making the swords hanging way above it tingled. Since when did she fear the darkness? Or was it a darkness that she’d really seen? “That’s what confuses most of the Shadowest, you know,” supplied the teacher. “I just hope Mister Porche will not do this every morning or we’ll lose Shadowests even before we could ask for it.”

"Ugh, what the hell? What's going on? Why is this happening to me?" The light slowly spread and engulfed her surroundings. The light ran rampage and blindly attacked the surrounding and loitered around but Shadow had a feeling the sudden appearance of the light had a purpose. "What the..."
