I walked towards the light,unafraid. I am a demigod,or maybe I was because the moment I step in,I'll become a god. I stepped into the light and I disappeared. I appeared in the middle of a street,at first I was afraid thinking that people would see me,but nobody did. My body felt light and weightless, I knew at this point that the transformation was complete. I turned around to see Mel looking at me. "You have become a god, but you can still use your old body,in the house with the number 49 you will find a girl about your age,she's alone with her boyfriend. Her boyfriend has a plan,he intends to rape her,go and save her". He said. " I'm supposed to be a god, and not a guardian angel" I replied angrily,how dare he reduce me to a mere guardian angel. "To get worshipers you must first earn their trust, and the best way to do this is by helping them,now go". He said. Now I was a god,so my abilities should be improved. " 49" I said out loud and immediately I disappeared. I appeared in the girl's room,she was drunk,I instantly saw a replay of everything that had happened,her boyfriend had gotten her drunk,so he could easily force himself on her. He had started making his move, I had to act fast. Soon he was on top of her,and she was trying to fight him off. I imagined lightning striking and the weather getting dull,and immediately it all happened. He got off her immediately afraid,the sound of lightning had made him scared. She had reached for the wine bottle hoping to use it as a weapon to defend herself, I decided at this point to step in,from this moment I would be known as Lionel,the god of light.

13??...am more than amazed at such indispensible talent(writing I mean) and about the witchcraft...na wa oo.

I was introduced to the internet at a very early age so I've learnt a lot.

We were heading towards the hall when the connection broke. The platform with which Mel and I were using to view my life had been disconnected. "What happened? I thought you were good at mirroring" I asked,confused. "I am but even gods have their own limits,I've gotten weaker now since my worshipers have reduced,it is high time you see yourself as the deity you are" He replied. I remembered now,the things that Mel had thought me,he had thought me that gods grew stronger when they had more worshippers and they became weak when they lost worshipers, He wanted me to become a deity,This process is known as Ascension. "But I'm a demigod, not a full god" I protested,I wasn't ready to become a god,I wasn't ready to have a servant that I would protect and guard. He didn't reply,he stretched his hand to a particular direction and it was filled with light. "I'm getting weaker and weaker,take half of the energy that I have,combined with your current energy reserves you should be able to ascend". He said. " But Mel.." I tried to protest but he refused. "Step into the light". It was an order,and one that I could not refuse.

We talked for a while,at a point we became deeply engrossed in our conversation that we were oblivious of the presence of arriving students and the passing away of time. Then we heard the bell,instinctively I knew that it was the bell for the assembly hall. "Let's go,I saw the hall when we were walking" She said. "Sure" I replied. "Did you bring your hymn book?" I asked. I remembered that today was the day for hymns, the school was a Christian school and took activities like hymn singing quite serious. "Damn it,I forgot mine" She said. I smiled,I had brought two hymns, my mind had kept on telling me to bring two hymns,for once I was glad that I listened to my instincts. I searched through my bag and found the two hymns" Here,take this one,I brought two". I said to her. "Thanks" She replied and then she put her hand over my shoulder, I was shocked,I didn't know we had become that close. When we left the class she removed her hand,we were new students it would look odd and people would think a lot of negative things, finally we reached the assembly hall.

Ever since I created this story all I've been seeing are positive comments, a big thanks to everyone that has been reading this story. I'll give an update before the end of today.

She hesitated for a while,she looked at me critically, ask if trying to deduce whether or not I could be trusted. "For now,just know that I'm someone with a few gifts". She said,I didn't know what to reply so I simply nodded,by " gifts " she meant powers. We got to our class,it was painted white and blue,the exterior was painted blue while the interior was painted white, as we entered some few students were already there talking, they looked at us. Not wanting to miss the opportunity of getting to know her I asked her that we sit together. "Since we're both new we should stick together" I said,hoping that she'd agree,and she did agree. We sat down in the middle row,the sitting arrangement was meant to be two students per sit. The sit was made up of iron,it was a table and chair. The sit had a locker,the locker could be locked and each student had a key,the locker was divided into two,one for each student that would sit in a sit. "So tell me more about you" she said,I guess she wanted to stop thinking about the students who had suddenly gone quiet and were staring at us. "You already know that my name is Lionel, I'm an only child,I lost both my parents a few years ago and I would have died too but I was lucky". I didn't want to tell her that I used my godlike abilities to survive,I needed to be sure that I could trust her so I only told her some few basic things about me.

WHIZKIDEFE:
Nice story, keep it up. Believe me, you'll get better with time. . *thumbs up

Thanks.

While we walked I decides to try something that Mel had taught me,mind reading. Although I wasn't too good at it I decided that I would try. As we walked I tried to concentrate,first activating my extra senses. I felt my self connecting to her but that connection was instantly cut, it was replaces by loud shrieks that I could hear so clearly in my ears,it sounded like the noise a banshee would make. I held my head trying not to let her notice,I kept on gritting my teeth,trying to hold back from yelling in pain. She looked at me and flashed me a smile, this time around her smile had a message. "I know what you're trying to do". That was the message her smile had,I decided to ask her what kind of being she was,Mel said that only supernatural beings or people well versed in magic could stop mind reading attempts. She snapped her finger and the noises stopped,i felt so relieved. " What are you"? she asked. "I think I should be asking you that question" I replied.

After a while we stopped talking, we had talked about everything we could talk about. I used the break to take a closer look at her, her uniform shone brightly in the sun, her skirt was quite below knees. "She might be decent" I said to myself,she wasn't wearing her blazer. After a while we saw someone that looked like a staff,we approached him,she did the talking while I did the nodding. He directed us to the school notice board, this time while walking we talked,I told her that I hoped we'd be in the same class,she said that It'd be nice. We fell silent again,nothing to talk about. I had lot's of thoughts going on in my head. "Do I like her"? Maybe, maybe I did,or I was beginning to. We reached the school notice board and it was quite crowded, after a while we were able to check,her name was among the top ten. " She must be very intelligent " That was the kind of thought of I was having until I saw my name too,in the 37th position. "Yes" I said in a low tone,her name was in SS2A, my name and her name were in the same list meaning that we'd be classmates. "Let's head over to our class then". I said to her," Yeah sure " she replied.

Thanks for the positive comments.

Inside the school was quite awesome, On entering one would see far down a mini roundabout structure, to the right one would see about four buildings,those buildings are the classrooms, to the left one could see the laboratory buildings, the staff office, the school assembly hall e.t.c I walked towards the direction of the buildings in the right hand side of the school. After a while I spotted a student,since I was new and didn't know my way around I decided to approach her. On getting closer I discovered that it was the same girl I had seen outside the school gate when I was submitting my receipts. "what a pleasant surprise" I said to myself happily. I summoned courage and decided to approach her. "Hi" I began,once again she flashed me that beautiful smile,this time around it revealed several pairs of very white teeth's,her dentition was next to perfect,mesmerized for a few seconds I forgot the words that I had rehearsed that I would use in asking her for help. Just when I thought that I was going to forget the words,I remembered them. "I'm new here,I don't really know the way to the class that I was assigned so I was wondering if you can show me". " I said,hoping for a positive reply. "I'm also new here,but if you want,we can search together,I aslo don't know the arm( I.e A,B,C,D like SS1 A,SS2 C e.t.c) that I've been assigned to". She replied, without hesitating I took her up on her offer. We walked and as we walked we talked,I found out that her name is Hazel, a rather strange name. Something about her seemed strange, I could feel a particula aura around her,it wasn't that of an evil person,neither was it that of a good person,it was neutral.

Beautiful story but pls make d update longer.

more grease to ur elbow
waiting wit. my pop corn and em wat is it called self?
any way come an update b4 u starve sum1 here

Thanks for your interest,I'll try to ensure that subsequent updates will be longer.

In less than thirty minuets I had arrived my destination. After coming down from the taxi I walked a little and then I crossed over to another lane of a main road and then I saw the school gate,it was white in colour and the paint still looked fresh and neat,exceptionally neat. I paused for some seconds as I survied the school building from where I stood. I could see some tall buildings, I could also see the school football field. As I walked into the school I searched my bag looking for my receipts,fortunately they were all intact. I had to present my school fees receipt,my uniform receipt and some other receipts. It was clearly written in the admission letter that we were to come to school with those receipts. On reaching the gate that led to the school compound I saw two men at the gate,there were few students there,the men were checking for receipts. I walked confidently towards them,I greeted the man,the few students there looked at me. One particular student caught my attention, The student was a girl she was very light skinned and had brown eyes,she also had a pointed to nose,she looked like a half cast. She smiled at me,at first I was quite confused given the fact that this was the first time that I was seeing her but I returned her smile,my attention was turned to one of the men when he asked for my receipts, I presented them and after he confirmed them I was allowed to go in,my life in this new school had just began.

I smiled,happy that I had been able to accomplish my goal. I saw one of the ladies give me a look as if to say "what's up with this weirdo"?. Perhaps my smile was too wide,I didn't blame her though,they had assumed that I was sleeping and on " waking up" the first thing I did was to smile like a mad man". I ignored her,there was nothing I could do about the situation. I've always had this inner fear,that when I'm around people, that I'd do something that'd embarrass me. After a while we got to a junction and I had to alight, I paid the driver and I got down,I would have to go to the left of the roundabout to take a taxi that would take me straight to school. I checked my time."damn it, this isn't good" That was the thought I had on my mind. I consoled myself with the fact that the journey to school would not take more than 30 minutes and the time for school assembly was 7:55 so there would be no way that I wouldn't meet up,as long as I would see a taxi instantly. Usually there are more public buses in the left path of the roundabout, so I hoped that I would see a taxi. Luck shined on me because the moment I reached the mini park I saw a taxi that was almost full,what was remaining for the taxi to move was one more passenger and I happened to be that passenger,happily I got into the taxi,"Thank God I won't be going to school late on my first day" I said to myself.

Son of a god.
I'm used to riding in a taxi. Normally I'd sit in the back seat but if I saw a fat passenger already seated in the back sit I'd stylishly go to the front seat if it was empty. "Damn it" I muttered under my breath, it had started raining and the last thing I wanted was to go to a new school and on my first day for that matter looking like someone that had taken his bath with his uniform on,in other words,I didn't want to soaked. I muttered my prayers hoping that the rain would stop but it didn't. At this point I remembered something that my instructor had taught me,he said I held considerable power over the forces of nature and in certain situations I could bend them to my will. "All it needs is concentration and a sincere need". I didn't want to imagine my self closing my eyes and concentrating,today I sat in the back sit and I was sandwiched between two ladies,luckily for me they were slim and looked good. I usually get nervous when I'm around girls. But I needed the rain to stop because I didn't want to get wet. After taking a deep breath I closed my eyes ,concentrating even though I really didn't know what to do after closing my eyes. I made it look like I was tired and hadn't slept well so I was just closing my eyes to catch some sleep before we would arrive,the journey would take at least an hour. After a while of closing my eyes my extra senses seemed to have been activated,I could hear clearly the heartbeats of the ladies,the man in the front sit and the driver, I could clearly hear the noise their breathing made,it was louder than normal. "Imagination is power" That was what my instructor taught me,for a demigod almost anything is possible, as long as you can imagine it and wish for it,but there are other laws and one of those laws is that you need to have a valid and reasonable reason for wanting what you want. Although you can always bend the laws to your will but there are consequences attached whenever you attempt to do so. I imagined the rain stopping,for a while it seemed like nothing was happening. "This is strange,the rain was quite very serious a few minutes ago and now it just stopped,as If it was a tap that was turned off." I felt it,I felt drained,although just a little,I had also started having a headache but it was manageable, I had exhausted a little bit of my mental power but it would be worth it as long as I find a way to cope with the headache.

Thanks for the positive comments.

I had to wake up quite early the next day, it was cold so I knew that I would bathe with hot water, I loved bathing with hot water. I was supposed to wake up by 5:30 but I woke up by 5:00. Mother and father were still sleeping. After bathing I got dressed, I added some milk to my cereal,I had learnt the habit of not putting sugar in tea or in cereals that others would normally put sugar in,I learnt it from father. Father had already given money for the week for so I didn't have to bother about waking him up and asking him for money. By 6:15 I was standing near the road waiting or a taxi, I didn't have to wait long before usual green coloured taxis. I didn't like entering buses because they were usually cramped and I also never felt comfortable being inside a with over a dozen people although they were cheaper than the taxis and sometimes safer.

For a while I was silent, I really didn't know what to say,finally he broke the silence. "Let's take a trip down memory lane,let's revisit your days in school". Although I didn't know why he said so I agreed.. There seemed to be a kind of mirror with which we viewed my school. I am a demigod,but that is secret known by my instructor and I. When school was to resume the next day I was quite excited, I would be going to a new school. I would miss my friends from Marilyn Academy, but life had to go on. I would he going to the South Academy, a school that was built only for science students. I had spent the night before the day that school was supposed to resume admiring my uniform. The South Academy uniform consisted of a white blazer,a white shirt, a white tie and a white trouser, even our boots would be with in colour. My last thoughts where centered on how I would cope at school the next day, I was not exactly a social person.

Nice storuy updates plskeep it up

Thanks, I've updated it.

Finally I fell asleep, once again I found myself in the comfort of my own world,despite the fact that my creative abilities were at best poor,I still loved my world. I felt a familiar presence, being a demigod I had heightened senses. I turned around to see my instructor standing before me, I opened my mouth to speak but he stopped me. "Come" he said. His voice was strangely authoritative, I followed him and soon we reached a quiet spot. " I know you have many questions" He. began, pausing only for a few seconds as though he was thinking of what next to say. "Your questions will be answered in due time". This is ridiculous I thought within me, I watched my family die before me,I watched them die without being able to do anything, all I could do was to save myself. "So that means. they're not my real parents right?" I had to ask,I knew that if my father was a god then that bullet wouldn't have harmed him. "You're right to be honest no one knows who your real father is" He replied

The visitors room was nice, the interior was milk in colour, the room contained a bed,a bookshelf, a table and chair and a nice flat screen television. I layed on the bed, thinking about life. My cousins were still asleep,they had no idea that I was around. Once more my thoughts drifted towards school I wondered how they'd react once they heard the news, my classmates would all start being nice to me and they'd go out of their ways to please me. I turned my thoughts back to the matter at hand,in less than a day I had become an orphan it hurt to admit it,but I had to, I couldn't lie to myself that I was not an orphan. Then I remembered my instructor, Mel. Whenever he appeared to me,he looked old, he always had a white robe on. "Where could he be"? that was the question that I had been asking myself, and it was a question that needed an immediate answer.

all right, I'll update it now.

Tank God am here now.....pls come nd continue

I've updated the story.

Son of a god.
The street was cold, it was the fourth of September and school was supposed to resume on the seventh. I had to get my mind off thoughts that involved school as I walked around looking for a payphone. After a while I saw a building, it looked like a brothel, music was on and it was quite loud. I walked in,I scanned the place first,the light was quite dim,there were about thirty to fifty people inside. I walked over to a man that seemed to be in charge. "Excuse me sir but can you please help me? I need to make a phone call". I said to him. " Did you read the signboard that's outside before entering here"? he asked. I needed to make a phone call quickly. "Listen I'll give you some cash,just let me use your phone to make a call,please?" I pleaded with him,he agreed quickly,I'd give him five dollars and in exchange he'd allow me to make a call. I dailed uncle's number,after a while he picked the call. He seemed worried,after telling him what happened I told him that I was on my way to his house. Since uncle lives in a different city it would be quite expensive to get to his house but since I could easily disappear and appear in his house,I wouldn't need to spend a dime. I gave the phone back to the manager and said thanks,although before giving him back the phone I deleted uncle's number, I didn't want to leave his number in a stranger's phone. Within seconds I was in uncles compound. He lives in a seven bedroom flat bungalow. I called uncle to let him know that I had arrived, he was surprised,he couldn't understand how I could have gotten to his house so fast,I had to come up with a lie which he didn't fully believe, but at least it was good enough. He let me into his house,we talked for a while and then he showed me where to sleep,the visitors room was quite luxurious.

Nice story.
