Chapter 27 - Time Ripper (2/2)

”Why did you create such skill, Mav?” asked Z, in bewilderment.

”The Void is the gaps between timelines. Passing through the Void is a must for this Relic to be of any use. It acts as a tunnel directly to the item chosen. It demands immense concentration for this to work properly. Any fault and consequences must be braced,” explained Mavislin, harshly towards Raiyen.

He knew the consequences of dabbling time and space excessively. He knew better than anyone within the room. The fact he had tried to rewrite Time was already a warning sign for the group. Anymore, he might cause their Time Streams to converge and collapse.

”Time cannot be tinkered; the person that Gillian destroys will still die. Don't you dare try again, got it?” commanded Mavislin.

Now it was her turn to deliver a word of warning towards the boy. Mavislin had seen the repercussion of such an act. Whatever happens, must be left alone. Don't try and tamper with it. If you saved a life in the past, be prepared to sacrifice another life in the future to replace the one that was saved.

”Now that the essentials have been relayed, why not try getting us all home? Don't worry, it works the same as your Time Teleportation Spell,” she suggested, lifting the mood.

Z shook his head disbelief as a wave of relief flashed over his face.

”You guys are destined to be partners. The tenacity you give off is enough to make us petrified. Look at Angry Man over there, he's gone cold,” commented Z, enveloping arms around the both of the kids.

”Oi! That's because you conjured up snow around me, Ice Ball!” yelled the Angry Man.

”Enough!” bellowed Gillian.

”We want to go home,” said Ysabeau, looking at Raiyen pleadingly.

It seems that the High Queen has had enough with the squabbles of the two a.d.u.l.ts.

”Take us home, Raiyen Phoenix E. Harmony,” commanded the Valkyrie with pride.

”I won't let you down, Big Sis,” he said as he prepared himself.

The rift became larger as he decided on the right coordinates to go home. What happened afterward had them all baffled. They were able to see their haven from within the rift.

”Shall we?” asked Raiyen.

He grabbed the Valkyrie's hand as she grabbed Z's. Ysabeau held Gillian's hand tightly as Baldwin connected with Raiyen's and Gillian's hand. Ysabeau grasped Z's huge, Igor's hand.

”Rush in, nibba!” yelled Z, as they let the rift open fully and absorbed the ground beneath them.

They then hit the wooden flooring of their little home.

”We should all try sparring together sometime,” suggested Z, rubbing his back.

”Yea, perhaps next week,” replied Baldwin.

The rest of the group's eyes widened. Did they just agree on something?

”Ahem, what time did send us back to, Raiyen?” asked Gillian. They heard the pot boil.

”Just after dinner,” replied the sneaky boy.

That meant they had arrived back half an hour later from the snowy episode. The mountains back to the house are about a few hours walk. Great thinking, ninja.
