Novel & Cerita We Need More Power

Mutter repeatedly and stood up slowly. “Fear doesn’t mean I don’t believe in myself,” I say out loud. “Yes!” My mates gather around me, hyping me up. That’s one thing I’ll always love about them. “But power alone isn’t enough,” Lux says. “What’s a war without weapons and ammunition?” “Weapons?” I ask. “Where are we supposed to get those?” Morien raises a brow. “The graveyard?” “Oh, forget that,” Lux mutters casually, moving to the wardrobe. She pulls out a box.

I ask, knowing I sound like a whiny child, but I don’t care. “Power like yours does not come without a cost.” “But I never asked for it!” I yank the first shirt I find over my head, letting my damp towel drop to the floor with a soft thud. “I just want to be me, a regular human. I don’t need powers. I just need my family and my mates.” “Are you sure you didn’t?”

he suggested. I nodded my head with a firm yes. I closed my eyes and concentrated on my breathing and tried to battle this newfound power which is like a curse to me. At least Bruce is kind of lucky. He only has one power, which he got that day I found him at the lake. Whereas I got nine over the years, unfortunately, this one would make it ten. A shiver ran through me as the glowing light hovered unsteadily around me. I fought to gain control..I felt the power intensify as it exploded out of me. The water in the lake rippled as the wind blew heavily as if there was a storm.

Adam answered firmly, "There should be no need to vote on a legislation that serves no other purpose than to strengthen our ranks, and lift our people up by providing for all of their needs, both now and in the future." "I do, however, have a few more items of business that I need to run past you all." Ann interjected smoothly, "There is the matter of the finances that go into funding our defense and security forces, and the matter of a new installation that I wish to propose for the Enclave." "An installation? What sort of installation?"

“What happened? Please tell me.” They looked at each other and it makes me more tense than before. “We need to ask for your opinion.” Said Aaron to me. “Alright, what kind of opinion?” I asked him again. “What if we could lose the rut but with another expense?” He said it to me with eyes directly at me. I don’t like the way he asked me the question. “What kind of expense?” He went quiet for a while, and when he took a deep breath, Aaron spoke the reason and I can’t just believe it. “We are going to lose our power, if we want the rut to disappear.”

“With mine and your light power, it is now doubled what you just saw. The night of the rescue, you only tapped into a quarter of that power.” “What?” She whispered, “I could have killed so many more, Galen and Xipher included that night if I had not stopped?” “You could have wiped out all of Amadoria yourself included.” “I understand why Xipher won’t let me go full power mode. Is there a way to direct the power only to do damage where you want and protect what you don’t want to be damaged?” “That is what we will be teaching you; but the first thing is, first. We need to get your body stronger.”

"They’ll try to bribe the residents, or they'll try to cut the traditional power lines to force us back onto the grid." "Let them," Silas replied, looking at the glowing moss. "The grid is a ghost. Every building in the Collective is now its own power plant. We’ve turned New York into a masterpiece of self-sufficiency. You can't bribe a city that doesn't need your money to survive."

Proactive measures had to be taken; we couldn't afford to be caught off guard again. I flipped through the pages, pausing at the illustrations in the weapons section. "We need to make some upgrades to our current systems, as stated here," I said, tapping the page. "I already reviewed your proposal for strengthening patrols, but I'd like us to look into getting better weapons as well. What do you think?"

Kaikuh thought as she saw the message written boldly, "New objective, survive a few minutes without the system" "How long is that going to take?" Kaikuh thought as she stared at it. "New objective, survive a few minutes without the system. Note, failure to do this would lead to loss of new powers, points, and no level up. Once the update is complete, the system would inform you about your new powers, good luck" As Kaikuh saw this, she knew she had no other option plus she needed to win this battle, so she took a deep breath and said, "Fine! But be quick about it"

They were listening, their resentment simmering just below the surface. “Let’s be clear. I didn’t just plan a coup,” I continued, leaning forward slightly, resting my arms on the polished wood. “This isn’t about seizing power for the sake of it. This is about rebalancing. About giving the true strength of our packs the recognition they deserve.” I paused, letting my words sink in. “Power needs to be shared. It can’t reside in one man, making arbitrary decisions based on… well, we all know what his decisions were based on.” I let the unspoken name of Emmeline hang in the air.
