A Certain Aura

 

(Note from Author: Anonym and Switch incoming! If you don’t know who Anonym and Switch are, there are two prequels that tell you about them. Anonym and Switch, Obtaining Power to Retaliate is first, showing why Anonym has come to Earth and ‘Unyielding Beloved’ shows a part of their journey towards coming to Earth. Of course, the other characters and their existence is written of too, upon who they are and why they are with Anonym and Switch.)

 

Far from the area that Connor, Cameron, Amillia and Andrea where, there was a strip of land that held cattle and sheep…And now dragons.

“Where are we Elementress?” Anonym asked, once shapeshifted back to her human form.

“Ah! I think we are on a planet that is much better than the last! The world is bigger! Oh, and there’s many that look like us!” Elementress stated, after having a quick look upon the earth and air around her.

Anonym frowned slightly, she was having so much fun teasing Timothy whenever she had asked him where they were, and it seemed Elementress wasn’t going to play the game!

 

“I feel it.” Came a distant sounded voice from Switch.

“Me too.” Stated Xavior. “Something’s here!”

Anonym really didn’t think this would happen! She wanted someone to take the bait so that she could tease but what was going on!?

“There’s no magic but there’s definitely a being here that reminds me of what happened back in our galaxy!” Xavior continued.

Switch immediately made the black dragons of Enoor become invisible and looked at Anonym, already slightly perplexed.

 

They were here to look for help to fight against their so called ‘father’, who had created their miserable fates. Yet, that still didn’t mean that they couldn’t fall into danger!

They had come across another that had wanted to wipe them out and they had to teleport away from the world that they had been on.

…Will this place be safe?

“There’s more…” Xavior continued.

Switch closed his eyes, concentrating upon the unique aura’s that not only he had but Anonym had as well.

This was…This was worrying!

This place did indeed have more than one! Not only that, but an aura felt like it was scattered across nearby space!

They would have to proceed with extra precaution!

 

“So, where are they then? Let’s go and talk to them!” Anonym stated easily.

Alex ran around her then, giggling as a young, invisible dragon stomped after him.

Seeing this, Switch sighed and turned towards a close by mountain, already ready to make their first home on this new planet.

In no time at all, a deep cave was made, with an entrance now blocked and air coming in from a small opening elsewhere.

“Let’s go and check out the place!” Anonym stated, really happy that there was a chance to get more on her side and excited about this new planet. “Tell me! Is there dragons? Is there witches? Oh…I hate witches!”

 

Switch took her into his arms protectively and sighed, he would much prefer to stop her from going anywhere but…Anonym wasn’t one that could be stopped! She was in a league of her own and he never had to heart to stop her from anything!

What Switch does like to do though, was accompanying her, making sure that she is safe and watch her for his own entertainment. She wasn’t like many that he had seen in his past…As Anonym was a person that went beyond expectations and did things without rules, doing whatever she wanted…Which seemed to grab hold of his attention.

 

“Don’t forget that you are to be much more careful now!” Switch stated, trying to coax his wife over.

Anonym humphed and put her arms to her chest, “It’s fine, it’s fine! I want to see if this place has good freedom elixir!”

Switch frowned, “No freedom elixir!”

“What! Why not!?” Anonym raised her eyebrows, how could she not try out freedom elixir?

“Pregnant women shouldn’t drink alcohol! Leave it to us men to drink!” Xavior stated with a smirk.

“Shut up!” Anonym stated angrily. She’d completely forgotten about this type of ‘rule’!

 

If it was up to her, she would think ‘so what!’, but…Switch and his anger was not something Anonym liked to see…It was a tad too scary!

She had seen a few of Switch’s tricks! She knows that he can turn people into icicles and bring forth some type of explosive out of nowhere! How could she fight everything he throws at her!? Even if she were go to invisible, he could bring her back to being visible again! But…She will beat him far and square one day! After all, she needed to be strong enough to beat someone who made the two of them, so, if she couldn’t beat Switch, then what was the point of trying to get revenge from her creator!?

 

Switch put a hand to his head and shook it defeatedly.

He knew Anonym wasn’t stupid, well not completely stupid, but her careless nature can be too much sometimes!

It must have been hard to live life over and over again and come to a point that very little would make you scared or be surprised about, as he himself knows, but why…Why can’t she take his children seriously! As it was, Alex was a little cannon!

They both were too much!

“We will take this slow because of the aura’s we feel! There’s more then one here Anonym, so we will search for them slowly, and in the meantime…It would be nice for me to take in this new world and learn a few things, it’d help us fight our father!”

 

Anonym stayed silent, knowing of Switch’s power of existence and couldn’t help but want him to grow stronger as well!

Sighing, releasing her hands from her chest, Anonym could only wait to meet the person she would convert to help her fight her father.

There were no if’s, but’s or maybe’s! She will gain more power and kick her father’s ass!

“Then, can we look around?” Anonym asked with mischievous eyes.

After all, it had been awhile since she had played around! She could go invisible and cause a disturbance or…Or maybe do something different this time, like turn into a snake and scare the hell out of everyone that way!

Letting out a laugh to her inner thoughts, everyone else looked at her and couldn’t help but get goosebumps!

How was it that the most shameless, the most villainous person out of all of them was a mother, a pregnant woman?

It was starting to become normal for them all but still, knowing that Anonym had come up with an idea, then Elementress wanting to know what the idea was, it was the men who sighed after looking at each other defeatedly!

 

The cave, which was in in a place called ‘Scotland’, did indeed stay their home for quite some time. The dragons easily didn’t mind as they had treasure, due to Switch, and Switch was also the one to bring them food…But, the rest of them did go out to see the sights.

Learning upon quite a number of things, such that as nuclear bombs, which finally made sense to Switch upon what happened in his home planet of Bracabra, Switch was happy to continue to stay low key yet…Anonym was the one that caused disturbances, much like her son!

…They could not return back to a place called ‘England’ because of Anonym’s blunt and uncaring to laws attitude!

 

No, it may have been fun but finding out after they left that there was a type of ‘warrant’ for her ‘arrest’, seemed to make things a bit more difficult!

They were supposed to stay lowkey! It was truly lucky that Switch was able to teleport to get them away from all the sirens!

Anonym was indeed punished by Switch because of this and so her and Presley, Switch’s dragon best friend, played a trick on Switch, then another one, then another one, until he changed his mind and let her out of the cave once again!

Over time, they came to see the difference of this planet, to that of Altervale, Roneglaise, Bracabra and any others that they had come across and found it to be strangely different.

 

There were no wolves that turned into humans, there were more advanced, yet there was no cultivation in buildings or weapons. The planet was bigger and…They still had not been able to find the owner of any of the aura’s that they had felt upon arriving.

Having this time, Switch was glad for it though. He had learnt quite a number of things and also had learnt of different cultures and foods, which helped calm his pregnant woman down from wanting to continuously cause trouble outside of the cave!

 

Anonym and Alex even ended up doing some type of ‘magic’, showing off their powers to those who said they were real ‘magician’s’ and suddenly they were on something called a ‘TV’…

Of course, Anonym can turn into creatures, so it was really her being ‘pulled out of a hat’. Alex was one that was able to do daring things because he was able to make copies of himself, to which nothing happened to himself personally if one of his copies was trying to get out of a bind and even ‘killed’ in the process.

And…Alex really liked how he could walk out from behind a curtain and that he had everyone’s attention!

 

They found out more about electricity and saw what it did for items such as phones and computers, then found out about internet, who Xavior already knew the idea of mostly, because of Altervale, and he had tried to explain it to Switch.

It was a strange new way to live for all of them though, even that of Xavior and Elementress, and they found that old habits do indeed die hard as they still found a more comfortable way of living inside their cave…Of course, a simple extra was added in the cave to supply not only that of power, but that of a ‘TV’ and some things called ‘movies’, which seemed to entertain both Alex and Anonym when something of war was on it.

And so, their days continued in this type of easy way…Until a certain day down the track…

Back to the present, when Piet left Connor’s house, the rest were all quiet. The news that Piet, an acquaintance of Andrea, had told them about spirits and humans took some time to sink in. Amillia sat down on the chair and Connor sat in front of her on the floor. Connor didn't want to think about something so serious, even though it included his new want to be with his fiance for a lifetime…

Cameron closed his eyes and couldn’t see a future without Andrea and decided he had to try and figure out a solution. “What do we know?”

Connor spoke out, quite bluntly, “You guys have three months, that you guys cannot go back to being ‘spirits’ because the Az…Somethinglious will make you transpers…That you obviously can come back if you die…That Cameron can never become a father and you guys will not grow old when Andrea and I die.”

Cameron looked at Connor and sighed, “Those are the facts told by Piet. I would prefer to have matters a lot less complicated.”

 

Amillia put a hand through Connor’s hair, hearing in his head a cat purring, and said, “If this can happen, there may be a solution. It might be something easy, something like maths, one plus one equals two.”

Cameron looked at her, as though she were joking, and he remembered the Azulious and how they reacted to them returning after Connor's mishap that happened a couple of Earth months ago. “How would that be possible, we are not even sure what this is, how are we to equal something else up to make an answer to what is going on?”

Connor got up from the floor and took Amillia’s hand, “Sleeping last night, in my opinion, was the best option and taking my girl out now seems to be yet another great option!”

 

He walked up to Cameron, with Amillia following close behind and put his hand on his shoulder, “Look, I love what I have now, I don’t want to let it go, but we need to get together, all four of us, to ask real questions…And I think you know this. I also thought that it only takes one, with only one computer, too look stuff up.”

Cameron looked at his brother and sighed, “Yes, you are right, I will attempt to find any information that would help us. First, I will check on Andrea and hope that she will be out soon, will we meet here tonight?”

It was agreed upon by all of them and with Connor and Amillia walking out the door and Cameron teleporting to the fourth floor of the hospital, where Andrea was being held under observation, Connor’s house became empty and quiet.
