The final lost souls found

A rude awakening

I woke with a start. What a dream that was. My beloved mate, the woman I waited for shot me in cold blood.

WAIT! This is not my room. Oh shit, the bitch shot me. This must be a hospital room but my insurance will only pay for a stall in the bathroom. It is cheap and they said don’t worry. This room is luxury personified.

I look for the nurse’s button but the hands I see are not real. They look like a child’s hands. I don’t want to look but I look down at my body. It also is a child’s body. Panicking, I grab my pajama’s waist band. Thank god, my manhood is there, small but there.

Why am I a young child? The bitch killed me!

I again look around the room. Not too bad,

As I look around, a beautiful young woman comes in and is elated that I am awake. She picks me up and hugs me. She Is almost in tears. She looks up to the ceiling and proclaims,

“Thank you gods for giving me back my son. Josh, get in here, Anthony is finally awake.”

A logical thought comes to me. My name here is Anthony and this is my mother and she called to my father, I figure that I should play it safe and I look at my mother as my father comes in.

“Mom, what happened? Why am I in bed?”

“That damned neighbors pets! One of his snakes got loose and bit you as you played in our yard. You have been asleep for a week. The guards have confiscated all of his snakes. The one that bit you was the weakest of the bunch. The bastard had the nerve to say he saved you because he had the antivenom for that snake.”

Mom says that he was renting and has fled in the middle of the night because we had him served by our lawyer.

Dad does put his hand on her shoulder then casually smiles at her as he says that the neighbor may slip away but,

“Your mother is one of the greatest mages. She was so worried about you that she placed a curse on him. If he left before he could be held accountable, he would lose control of his bowels until he returns to face judgement.”

He eventually returns to face the music.

I am told that my education at the magic academy is now paid entirely. What, magic academy? I can do magic?

It turns out that the effects of the snake bite have blocked my abilities. We were told by the healer that it should return but only after a few months. My parents and I have been cautioned that I have to avoid trying to use my powers because the side effects. I have been told that I tested extremely high for a ten year old.

When does a ten year old listen, let alone one who now is a reincarnate where his old life memories are intact.

As a side note, wasn’t I supposed to meet a god who would explain all this to me? No problem. I need to explore anyways. It has only been a few weeks since I woke but that’s enough. Wrong!

Again I wake in my bed. Both my parents are there but there is another woman in the room. She is giving me the evil eye. My parents are also very cross with me. All are going to unload on me so I do the admirable thing.

“I’m ten, you should have watched me. You had to know that I was going to try.”

Their look was a combination of astonishment of me being so bold that I would think that it was their responsibility and them trying not to laugh. Only then do I feel a collar around my neck. Only then do I notice a key card on a lanyard around my mother’s neck.

“That is a suppressor collar. Until it is off, you will not even be able to think magic.”

The three now smiled. They went into the hall thinking that I would not hear but I can.. She is telling my parents that she cannot explain but that try, instead of retarding my powers, has caused my potential power to triple.

“The collar is to retard him until he finishes healing. You do know that now, instead of the option of going to the regular section of the academy, he is now required to go, per royal decree. to attend the special powers section for wizard class potential.”

I was able to find that my magical abilities were retarded but they did not know that the collar did not inhibit a portion of magic that governed investigation and learning abilities . I found out that I could access the inner workings of the collar just by making a “How this is made” inquiry. The tutorial ran and I could see a flaw in the programming.

The same way I learned how it was made. That allowed me into the program and I soon found the programmers access code. It seems that the programmer tested his program on himself. Potential bugs, he put in a cancelation program. Since it was only known to him, he labeled the program “Emergency unlock.” Also he had a file in the collar named EU password. Mom’s key card was not the only thing that would unlock the collar.

I made sure I was out of sight or after they retired for the night.

At first I used only basic low level magic. A small light to light the dark. I felt weird but did not pass out. I used that until I did not feel weird. Then I did slightly stronger. I kept on reactivating the collar when I was within range of my parents. I would carry a book and make like I was studying.

The time came for the healer to remove the collar. Mom gave her the card. After removing it, the healer started to do her evaluation of my skills when she actually fainted. It was a good thing that she was sitting.

My parents were able to revive her and the healer looked as if she actually was going to bow to me. She gathered herself and finished the scan. Without saying anything, she took out a thought communicator and was silent for a while.

Soon we heard shouting as the front door was opened and people barged in against the servant that answered the door. A number of people entered the room. All were formally dressed and some you could tell were royal guards.

The healer now told us, “For whatever reason, the collar did not suppress his magic abilities. His magic potential is now at a level that has never been seen before, ever. He now has the potential of being an eternal god. He must now be placed into the custody of the government.”

She could not finish. I stopped her. She was frozen in place as well as the people that she summoned. I made sure that they still could listen. Only my parents were free to move.

I stand before the healer, look at her in the eyes and get mad. She does not realize that I remember the last bitch that tried to and succeeded to dispose of me.

“Mother, Father, she lied about my potential never have happened before. It has happened many times. All have had these come, all those children have been taken. All those children were immediately murdered and their bodied cremated and the ash washed away. That collar is to drain those who have had the potential to a point they could not do what I have done.”

They were now looking at her with the look that they now wanted to slit each of those kidnapper’s throats but I stopped them.

“We still will be branded murderers because what these do not know is this is going to be a failure. They will be executed when, not if, they are captured. We will be accused of their murder. I have the ability to transport us to a location far away from here. These will be placed outside of our home and will not be released until this whole house and staff are gone.”

I have father call the staff and tell them what is going to happen and why. All say that they want to go with us. One of them explains that it is simple.

“We like working for you but if we stayed behind, the government would probably eliminate us. We will go.”

With that they put the frozen off the property

All the town saw was those bring thrown out then a large hole where once stood a mansion and it’s out buildings. I teleported the whole complex far away to an area outside the country’s boundaries. An area where homes were few and far between.

”Father and mother, I do not and hopefully never want to be a god. What I held back from that healer is that, as you have seen, I already am almost at that stage. I just need a teacher to train me. The ruler set up that system to kill potential threats to his dynasty. There have been almost twenty children that were killed before they could blossom. I was able to defeat the locking program but that is when I found the true program. It would alert the healer of this potential.”

My father now says that we need to go out and see our land.

This is a beautiful land. I had already mentally scouted the area and made the changes needed. This is a five acre flat lawn area. One acre garden already growing with vegetables.

My parents and staff are amazed. All our horses and the cattle are here, even the chickens are scratching around their coup.

I tell them that the worlds records have been changed. “This country has always been here before records were kept. Martignetti has always been a free country from horizon to horizon.

“Father and mother, you are from a long line of rulers of this land. You are Joshua Martignetti. Leader and Sandra Martignetti, mother, is your coleader. I am the humble heir. Now how many villages should I create?”
