Snippet #2730912

Jax already knew it. The moment this...thing...showed up. Le'l had been one thing, but this was totally different. This...entity was something beyond him. It was something he shouldn't fight yet. Butc, there was something else. Being coated in this energy, because of Jax's Mental Fortitude power, and the Aethera infused in his clothes which were actually Armor, he was protected...however, all over his clothing and on his body symbols seemed to glow, indicating it had been a close call.

And yet, this aura...combined with Le'l being there... felt familiar....

Suddenly, Jax found himself in a building. It was partially on fire, and things outside sounded chaotic. The smell of smoke was everywhere. Jax ran across the room and jumped out a window. He grabbed a lamp post, and saw Le'l again. Teleporting to his shadow, Le'l looked concerned.

"What happened?! Jax! I'm your friend, so talk to me! Are you...GAH!"

Suddenly Jax stabbed Le'l, his body felt like it had been forced to do so, stabbing Le'l repeatedly until he was beyond dead. And he could feel another being inside him, manipulating him. It was already inside him. Jax would die the moment he left.

Suddenly Jax snapped back into the moment they were in.

He looked at Le'l. He felt something stir inside him. Normally he would not care enough for a random person, but in that...flash...he had, he felt himself murder that man by the will of another, and also felt companionship for this man for some reason. Jax was not sure what was going on, but he decided to help this man, at least a little.

Jax moved quickly and subtly, and pulled Le'l away from his aura. "You know, it's not nice to just tell people to bow, especially not when they don't know why. What are you exactly?"
