Kayla!

Shouts unfurled around me.

Power rippled through the air.

And those beings with Kristina’s power began to pulsate.

I could feel them now, their auras beacons that called to the energy within me.

That ability doesn’t belong to you,I thought at them.That ability belongs to the Divinity.

Kayla!Ezra shouted again.Don’t do this!

It’s okay,I whispered back to him, my soul coaching me through each and every move.It’s going to be okay.

You’re not—

The energy inside me roared, overpowering his voice and sending me to my knees.

I slammed the blade into the ground. It shook with the power of an explosion, the rocks splitting all around me as I erupted into a thousand pieces.

Jagged.

Sharp.

Intense.

Kayla…The agony in Ezra’s voice shot through my heart.

But the pain left me in the next breath.

My heart no longer existed.

Ino longer existed.

For my skin and bones had been ripped apart by my very soul, coaxing me into an ethereal state of existence.

A right state.

The only one that matters.

Electricity buzzed all around me, creating static in my ears.

Blissful silence followed.

The world at peace.

Just for a brief second.

The power righted.

The evil beings destroyed.

My spirit forever changed.

And my body… no more.

Ezra
