Oscar's P.O.V
*****
When I was alone in the room I sighed that Zak was gone. I raised a hand a clenched my fist, allowing my power to flow into my clenched fist. My hand glowed a white light that filled the room. At the moment I needed to let off some steam, I needed to do something active. I needed to run, I needed to fight, I needed to use my powers. I felt so full so full of energy, so full of life and at the moment I needed to burn some of it.
The sun outside was not yet set, and it looked around 4 in the afternoon. I dressed quickly and slipped on some shoes I found inside the wardrobe and stepped out of the bedroom. The guards flanked the doors on either side. They were pure slabs of muscle obviously trained to protect Zak with their lives. I was surprised they were still here.
I groaned when I realised they were here to protect me. I walked past them and headed in the direction of what I thought was the front entrance. I moved quickly and headed down the large flight of stairs near the throne room and towards the large double doors, I blinked and they swung open.
It seemed all I needed to use my powers was intent, it was fun. I felt powerful, for once I felt in control. I stepped out into the late day sun and winced slightly. The sun stung my eyes, I hadn't realised just how sensitive they now were.
We were in the middle of no-where, thankfully. I saw a few people walking around the grounds but I just assumed they were guards. My eyes scanned over the grounds before me, it was huge. I supposed with the amount of power and money Zak had this was not surprising. The whole area was covered with grass, with black stone paths meandering through them. I walked out into the middle of the grounds and away from the house. Which I now realised was massive. The terrain was mainly flat land but a few hills sprung up here and there.
For some reason this area made me extremely happy. It was lush and verdant even in winter. The late day sun shone and I smiled lightly. I sat down in the grass and ran my hands through it smiling slightly. I felt home, I felt safe, I was in nature. The wind picked up slightly and I inhaled the scent of the area. Sweet but the hints of bitterness within it stung my nose. Pollution my mind provided.
I ran my hands through the grass around me, my lips speaking words absently and my magic flowed out through my hands and into the ground. A circle around two metres in diameter made of light began to form around me. It glowed dully as it hovered above the ground, apparently random symbols floated around the circle.
I muttered absentmindedly and the circle formed
"Imréitigh aer, lig an talamh a athnuachan, bláthanna ag fás agus blossom milis."
I hummed lightly between the words, feeling my power flow out of me and into the earth
"Saol an nádúir fás timpeall orm, sreabhadh as dom agus an áit seo a athnuachan mar sí ordú liom é."
I hummed quietly as i finished and smiled as i lay back against the grass. The earth warmed beneath me, the sun grew brighter and the air grew sweeter. All traces of pollutants vanishing. I turned my head and looked at the circle of light surrounding me. It lowered itself to the ground and a perfect circle of blue flowers grew around me.
As much as that had felt good, to help the earth around me by casting a spell to cleanse it. But i still felt restless I wanted to fight, I needed a challenge. Now I wished Vanessa were here. I would kick her arse any day. I lifted a hand up and aimed it at the sky
"Báisteach." I said and a bolt of something that glowed like starlight shot out from my palm, it flew quickly upwards before exploding in a burst of light.
The sky immediately darkened as thick black clouds spread out from the point where the ball had exploded. I smiled as the thunder clapped and the sky for miles around immediately darkened. I had always loved the rain, and I especially enjoyed thunder storms. The lightning struck a few miles away, illuminating the sky. I smiled as the rain fell down and struck me.
I wondered slightly what it would feel like for the lightning to strike me. I knew so far that I was a part of nature, and as such nature wouldn't harm me. I saw some of the guards on the property running towards me and I smiled jumping to my feet.
They weren't vampires, I could sense that much. They were humans, that immediately caught my attention. Humans shouldn't be here. I sensed something was wrong and crouched low as they charged towards me. There were three of them and as they got closer I could understand why it was that I had believed that they were guards. They wore black much like the other guards on the property but I however could tell that they were human even at this distance.
If they tried to take me they would fail. It was obvious that they were here for me. As far as I knew from Zak there were very few Fae on this plane any more. That would make me a commodity, I was powerful and as such an adversary to them.
The nearest human was around ten metres away and I swept around extending my hands as I did so.
"Fuar agus oighear agus sneachta gheimhridh." I said my power flowing out through my hands.
The human froze on the spot, quite literally, as ice and snow flew from my fingertips.
The rain continued to fall around me yet the other humans continued to advance towards me. I knew that all I had to do was to keep them occupied until Zak realised something was wrong.
"Zak!" I shouted knowing that he would hear me.
I knew that the humans had to be here for some reason. Either they were eliminating me to stop me from interfering or they were here for...
"No!!" I shouted, they were here for Zak.
Rage boiled in my gut at the thought of them taking him from me. He was mine I shouted inside my head. My fingers curled and I turned to glare at the two humans charging towards me. I raised my hands and noticed that my nails were now black and talon-like, extending from the tips of my fingers.
I raised one hand above my head and called out at the sky.
