Aiden looked at the stranger incredulously, “Do you hear anything I am saying!? Is everyone in the First Dominance this mad!?”
The scenery shifted quickly, the goo disappearing. Within the blink of an eye, Aiden and the stranger were standing in Aiden’s study. Lasher was dozing off on the long leather couch, exactly where he would be in the real world. The anger pumping through Aiden’s veins started to fade a little as he grew a bit more relaxed. Seeing familiar surroundings really did help his nerves.
“And the fire? You don’t look surprised. Is this something you’re used to seeing? Well, let me assure you I cannot control it. I don’t even know what it is! Whenever I get angry, surprised, horn- wait a second. Why am I telling you this when you have been obviously dodging all of my questions? First you summon some cyber demons to attack me and now you’re asking private questions! What gives?!”
Aiden said in a rush. He came very near to shouting at the silhouette. The remaining anger turned to annoyance.
Three feeble fireballs popped into existence above Aiden’s head and slowly drifted down. The three rippling orbs danced lazily around his cranium, lightly grazing his nose. Aiden batted the fireballs away in a huff.
“You’re not going to tell me who you are, are you?”
