Chapter 7: Awakening

The trio heard rumbling as "Help V1.0" crumbed down. The tunnel was sealed by both sides, the air inside being suffocating. The screech of an injured bird was heard, and fierce trashing about sounded. The three ran to the end of the tunnel. Feroo pushed his way forward, "Let me", and he broke through the ceiling, letting in fresh air again. They climbed out through the hole, and looked back. Large waves of light blue mist flew into the air, and the large blue burning fire was seen, with the occasional movements of a creature inside. From cracks, a shine could be seen. Mothly saw this and muttered, "The magic platinum.... is in there... Inside... are the soul stones. This is our chance!" Suri looked at him confused, "What chance? The magic platinum is staying there no matter when we go back for it, so lets go hide in a tree for the rest of the night, dawn is already beginning." Feroo just stood there, exhausted. Activating his inner power took a large toll on his body. Mothly responded, "Remember the soul stones inside? See the cracked magic platinum? Large, powerful, dying beast, soul stones, us with completely undeveloped soul emblems..."

Suri took a deep breath in realization. Feroo looked pained, knowing that he would have to move again despite his damaged body. They took a few steps towards the base. The occasional trashing about was still heard, signifying that the chilchin wouldn't die for now.

The three stood outside, waiting, 10 minutes, 20 minutes, 30 minutes. As time passed, the frostfire slowly died out, along with the chilchin. 40 minutes, 50 minutes, 1 hour. The fire has nearly died out, and dawn has already began. With the fire dying out, nearly all the wood ash, the still body of the chilchin was clearly seen. It was no longer getting damaged but its injuries were clearly beyond saving. It lied on the ground, with barely a few twitches, and weak cries on pain.

Suri saw this and muttered, "It's time." The three neared the area. Suri went to the magic platinum, which was nearly broken in two, full of cracks from everything that has happened. Mothly went towards and with both hands, picked up the beasts broken beak that he had scouted long ago. He went towards feroo and handed it to him. Feroo stood there confused. "What do I do with this?" "Break open the soul stones you idiot." "Oh yeah that."

Feroo went towards the magic platinum, and held it up with the sharp side facing the magic platinum. He muttered, "I hope I don't regret this", as he activated his inner power... again.

"THUMP!"

"THUMP!"

"CRACK!"

"THUMP!"

"CRACK!"

The sounds of the platinum being hit resounded, and cracks sounded one in a while as the small part of magic platinum still letting it be in one piece cracked.

Finally, with a resounding THUD on the ground, the last piece broke off, and the two pieces naturally separated and fell under their weight, revealing the three soul stones inside.

"AAaaaaaaheyuuuuuuuuuk" With the last of his work done, feroo let of a cry as he fell back, panting and in pain. Suri came over and took a soul stone.

The stone was was uneven, but mostly circular. It was light grey, and let out a pale, white glow. A symbol was carved into it, which glowed brightly with white, and it felt... alive.

"Amazing..." Suri muttered. She instinctively pressed the stone against her chest, and found it disappear inside her. She suddenly, felt... whole. As if her whole life, she was missing something and didn't realize it. It felt so good, she let out a resounding moan. "Ahh~"

Mothly walked up, and took a stone too. he repeated the process, holding the stone up to his chest and feeling quite content as he absorbed it.

Suri took a look at feroo on the ground, who had already fainted, and looked back at the last stone. She let out softly, "Sorry... here you go." She took his stone and pressed it against his chest, letting it once again be absorbed inside him.

They did not feel any stronger, but felt quite relaxed at this moment. "creee" The sounds of the dying chilchin reminded them of what they were going to do. Mothly picked up the beasts beak, which feroo had let go, and neared the beast. The chilchin looked at feroo in apathy, knowing it would already die, and it can't do anything anyways, it slowly closed its eyes, awaiting its fate.

Suri picked up physically picked up feroo, and neared the beast too.

Silently, they watched as mothly neared the beasts neck, and stabbed it with its own beak, its weakened skin being much more easily penetrated than before. He pushed it in, and it lied there, dead.

........

The world was silent, as the three stood there. Tired, but still waiting with hope for the future, hope for the power from the soul stone, hope, that this would be a start for a hopefully exciting, and powerful new life.

Soon, the three felt an invisible, misty film surround them. It brought them piece and relaxation. Their hopes had been realized, the soul stone was strengthening their soul emblem.

The breeze from the mist got stronger and stronger, until it touched them.

It touched them.

At that moment, for the three. It felt as if the world had stopped.

Pain.

A pain that surpassed anything they had experienced in their lives.

A pain, that felt nothing like a mortal could ever experience.

A pain, where its source couldn't even be located. Their body wasn't in pain, but rather, their being itself. The pain of their soul being torn apart and reformed, with external soul power being furiously poured in their soul emblem, through their soul tone, and spread across their soul through said soul emblem. The pain was so intense that the three just directly fainted.

At this moment, although no one realized it, a pair of eyes were hiding in the void, watching them. It made a mental note of the three, and moved on...
