“
I think it worked. Did you
hear me?” I asked.

“
Nope, you did good. Well
that’s step one. Good job beautiful.” He told me, and my face
suddenly shined. He noticed. “Now, I don’t want you drained just
yet, so let’s move on. We’ll repeat everything tomorrow again, so
we don’t have to spend too much time on each thing now.”

“
Okay, so what’s
next?”

“
Hmm, well let’s see. When
you were trapped in that factory, I couldn’t feel where you were
until I was finally able to connect with you. That means you can
turn your position off and on as well. I will walk across the
field, and close my eyes. You will need to focus on how to turn
your connection on with me again and I will see if I can feel you.”
He walked across the field, and as he said, closed his eyes. I
moved to a different position and closed my eyes as well. I put all
my energy towards letting Tae know where I was exactly. I opened my
eyes to see if it worked, and it did. He was walking right towards
me with his eyes closed. For me to know if this really worked, I
walked more towards the right so he wouldn’t be walking towards me.
I noticed he changed his direction, and again, was walking right at
me. He reached me by bumping into me, and he laughed at the sight
of me falling on the ground.

“
Ha ha, you’re so funny!” I
told him, also laughing. He helped me up, and hugged me tightly. I
was starting to think he either was getting ready for something and
wanted to hold me as much as he could, or he just missed me way too
much. Either way, I enjoyed it.

“
You’re doing good. I felt
you quickly, even when you changed your position. Now, let’s see
what else we can test.” He said, looking like he was thinking kind
of hard. “I think we need Kierce to help us. He’s the only hunter
we’re friends with, and probably the only way you can fully enhance
your abilities.”

“
How are we going to get him
here though?” I asked.

“
Try concentrating on him,
and see if he’s able to answer you, or even come here.” I did as he
said. I closed my eyes and tried concentrating on Kierce. I thought
of our first kiss and the beautiful glaciers I saw for the first
time.
Kierce, can you hear me? It’s
Amabel. I need your help.
I got no
answer.

“
No Tae, it’s not
working.”

“
Okay, well, maybe it’s not
as easy as we thought. That’s alright. We can practice some other
things. For example, I remember you shot out a bold of energy at
Argem. Do you remember what went through your head when you did
that?

“
Yeah, I remember thinking
he killed you and I wanted to rip him apart. I felt a sudden urge
of anger and tremble in my body. So I put my hands out like I
wanted to hurt him, and sent the bold out. I also know all the
lights went out in the room we were in. You think I used the
electricity?”

“
Yes, that could actually be
why. We need to practice you sending out those bolts without you
getting completely angry though. So, I have my phone. It doesn’t
have as much energy as the lights, so it won’t be as big of a bolt,
but it’ll still be something. Try to focus on feeding on the energy
off the phone and letting it go through your body, out of your
arms.” I listened to him and did what he said. I took his phone and
tried sucking up all the energy out of it. I failed. I didn’t feel
the same time of shock as I did when I was angry.

“
Tae, I can’t. I can’t get a
hold of the energy in it.”

“
Well, I was hoping I
wouldn’t have to do this.” He took out a little switch blade out of
his pocket, and cut his arm quickly. I saw the blood dripping down
to the ground and got a sudden feeling of anger and pain. I was
angry that he did. I now felt the energy from the phone sucking
into my body. The more I got angry, the more the energy came to me.
I felt it travel thought my body and with my body trembling, I put
out my arms, and a small bolt came out of my hands, into the field.
It worked.

“
It worked!” I was excited
that I was able to do it, but still upset for Tae doing what he
did. “Why would you do that though!” I yelled at him.

“
I did it to test your
ability. It worked though, so I was right.” He said. I could see
the pain in his eyes though. The cut looked pretty deep. He
couldn’t take pain the same way as when he’s a lycan. Suddenly, I
felt an extraordinary pain in my arm. I could now feel the pain Tae
was feeling. It made me too upset to know he was feeling this. I
now started crying as I came closer to his arm. I put pressure on
it to try to stop the bleeding. I felt my tears running down my
cheeks.

“
Oh Tae, how could you hurt
yourself like this.” I told him. Holding his arm with greater
force. I wanted to fix it so bad. Without a second thought, I put
my energy into his arm. I held it tight, and felt the warmth go
into his arm, followed by a little shock.

“
Amabel, stop. Please. I
don’t want you getting hurt.” I didn’t listen. I continued to put
my energy into his arm. I felt warmth all throughout my body, and
suddenly felt light headed. Before I put the rest of my energy into
Tae, he took his arm away from me.

“
This is enough.” He said,
holding me in his arms now. He slowly sat down with me on his lap.
“You did it Amabel, you healed me.” He said. I couldn’t believe
this. It worked.

“
I tried so hard to put my
energy into you Tae. I felt your pain. I felt what you were
feeling.”

“
That’s how you will use
this ability. You need to feel what others are feeling during
certain situations. When you do, it makes your ability come out and
once it does, you use it.” He told me. It made complete sense. “I’m
so proud of you.” He added. Holding me tightly now while I was
still on his lap. “We should get back to the house now, it’s
getting pretty late. Well, maybe not late, but the sun will soon go
down.” He told me, as he arose still holding me. I was too weak to
answer, and definitely too weak to walk.

“
I should have ate before we
left.” I told him weakly.

“
Yes, yes you should have.”
He said with a smile on his face. He knew I was going to be fine. I
closed my eyes, and got closer to Tae. I heard his heartbeat, and
it was filled with such closure. My mind went black.

I woke up with Tae talking to me. Maybe he
didn’t think I’d wake up so quickly.

“
Amabel, you are so amazing.
I’m so proud of you. Soon, you will have all your abilities come
easy to you. I will never fail to protect you my love. Never.” He
said. Using my mind, I answered him
. And I
will never ask you to leave my side Tae. I love you.
I looked up at him to see his reaction, and his
eyes were wide open, staring back at me.

“
I didn’t know you were
awake. How are you feeling my love?”

“
I’m feeling okay. I want to
practice some more. Maybe something small.”

“
Well okay, but first,
you
need
to eat.
Oh and, I love you too my Amabel.” He said, slowly leaning in
towards me, and kissing me on the cheek. I got out of bed, and
walked towards the bathroom to get changed. It was warm in here, so
I decided to wear just a tank top and some shorts. I missed summer
time and not having to worry about the cold. As I came out, I
smelled Tae’s cooking.

“
You can cook?” I asked,
with a giggle.

“
Well of course I can cook.
How do you think I’ve been living all by myself all those years? I
didn’t order out every night.” He answered me laughing. It smelled
good, whatever he was cooking. I smelled sausage with eggs. I loved
having breakfast any time of the day. Thinking of it, I didn’t even
know what time it was. All the windows were closed.

“
What time is it?” I
asked.

“
It’s time for breakfast
silly. Why else do you think I’m cooking sausages.”

“
Oh, I just thought you need
what I liked to eat.” I said giggling again.

“
Oh I do, trust me on that
one.” He told me, laughing back. I loved that he knew me so well. I
never had to explain myself and I never had to tell him what I
wanted. Everything was always right in front of me, before I even
asked. That didn’t only happen with food of course. “It’s ready,
come eat sweetie.” He said. Before he could even put the food on
the table, I was ready to dig in. I enjoyed breakfast completely,
and got all my energy to practice more for the day. I wanted to
know my abilities so bad, I would do anything it took to enhance
them.

“
Thanks for the food Tae.
Nothing burnt, I’m impressed.” I said, smiling at him. “You ready
to practice some more?” I asked.

“
Oh no, you’re not
ready.”

“
What do you mean I’m not
ready? Tae I’m fine. I don’t want to waste any time not getting
prepared. Come on, let’s go. I’ll try contacting Kierce again and
maybe use some more energy to throw those cool colts
out.”

“
No Amabel. That’s too much
energy to use right now. We can try something small though. Like…
try to move objects.”

“
Dude, I’m the last watcher.
Not.. telepathic, or something.”

“
Yeah yeah, funny. No I
mean, use the energy of the lights in the room, and slowly try to
move objects. It might work, and also might come in handy one day.
You have no idea what your capable of Amabel. I don’t even
know.”

“
Then how are you supposed
to teach me when you don’t even know?” I asked, kind of
aggravated.

“
I know how to open them up.
I never said I knew what they were.”

“
Well, okay Tae. If you say
so.: I told him. I finished eating and got ready to move objects.
As silly as that sounds.

“
Now close your eyes, and
take the energy from the light in the room. Don’t take all of it,
just enough to move… this cup.” He said, pointing at the empty cup
on the table. I tried to focus on the cup, and taking in energy,
and had no luck. I again, tried taking the energy and forcing it
towards the cup. Nothing, again.

“
Tae, this is stupid. I’m
not going to be able to move a cup. I wouldn’t be able to move a
damn dust particle, not to mention a cup.”

“
Okay, I can tell you’re not
enjoying this. This means it won’t work even if you
are
able of doing
it.”

“
No Tae, I can’t do it
period! I can’t do anything! I need my father here teaching me, not
you!” I screamed, throwing the cup across the room and running
outside. I shouldn’t have taken it out on Tae like that but I was
furious. I wanted my father here. My
real
father. That wasn’t going to
happen though and I needed to figure out how to deal with it. Since
the connection with Tae was open, I could feel the sudden pain he
felt from my words.
Tae, I’m sorry,
they’re just words. Pointless and heartless words.
I told him. He now came outside to join
me.

“
Tae, I’m the last watcher.
I should have unexplainable powers. I need to know what they are!”
I told him. Feeling so much pain and so much anger. I couldn’t
control it anymore. As I started to cry, I felt water drip on me.
It was raining. As I started to cry harder, the rain now was
falling more.

“
Amabel, you’re doing this.
We need to take advantage of this. Quick, do you remember the
dreams you have had of me? Do you remember when the hunter was
hurting me and you felt all the pain that I felt?”

“
Yes, how could I not!” I
knew that Tae was trying to get me angry now. I wanted to rip that
hunter apart.

“
Now do you remember how
Argem hurt me at the factory? Do you remember me falling to the
ground in pain?”

“
Tae, stop it! Yes, I
remember it
all
!”
I yelled. I knew he was trying harder and harder for me to get
filled with anger. It was now pouring, followed by lighting. I made
a whole thunderstorm.

“
Now think. The hunters
killed your father!”

“
Tae! You’re pissing me
off!” I screamed. Not believing he took it this far. I reached my
hand up into the sky without thinking, and struck it at the ground.
The lighting came with it. I shot a bold of lighting.
Unbelievable.
I heard
Tae. With anger still within me, and it feeling so good to release
it, I grabbed another lighting bold from above, and shot it again.
This time, with greater force. It felt amazing.

“
I can’t believe you can
control the weather like that. You can use it in your advantage.
The abilities of the last watcher.” Tae said softly. I barely could
hear him in this storm. I looked up at the sky, planning to grab
another bolt, and failed. I fell to my knees, and then fully to the
ground. It took too much energy out of me, and I was now passing
out.

“…
Amabel…” I heard Tae
saying in the background. I could no longer make out what he said.
All I saw was blackness, and everything went silent.

Amabel, my daughter, they’re coming for you.
Be prepared to fight them off. You will not be alone. Every lycan
alive will protect you when it’s time… Be prepared… my
daughter.
