Harmonizer's Evolution (Balancer's Soul cycle) (106 page)

This power was unstoppable and immeasurable.

Suddenly the ground ceased to
shak
e
. Then a mind
broke
through the greatest barriers
that was so overwhelming and ancient that
he
h
eld
no hope of
ever
walling
anything away from
this mind. The mind said in a strange voice that was ancient, motherly and angered.
“Watch who you are talking to, Mortal! He and his brother will one day become the leaders of your race
s
as they are my
very children!
”

Sorono and
Connor
looked at each other
in disbelief
and came to the same conclusion. This voice and power could only
come
from one entity
, one true source
. Their
mother, the Hallowed Mother was spe
aking for the first time in several thousand
millennia.

T
he ground before
them
began to crack and something
began spewing out of the small fissure
. A
ll watched in horror
, confusion
or
strange
admiration as what Connor
first thought as green-black smoke began rising from the crack. Upon realization
he
saw that it wasn’t smoke
at all
,
but pure energy visible
to the naked eye,
for all to see. The energy twisted in on itself and slowly began to take a shape. The shape wasn’t definite, but it was shaped for the most part, like a woman, but a thirty foot
tall
woman
with a
humanoid
appearance
, but the shape wasn’t
distinct
. The form shimmered and could be seen through
,
if the energy
became
thin enough as it continually moved.

Then
the first
mother seemed to look down upon
them
lovingly
as she said
“My sons, I am sorry
for your burden
s
you share
, but I cannot stay up here for long. My presence here is too dangerous to be gathered
in a single
location
such as
this. If I do not hurry
,
my power will start to kill
many of
the life
forms around this location.”
Th
e world leaders were having a difficult time breathing and would soon die if she stayed too long.
“My children, only you and your mates are
the only ones
strong enough to survive in my presence for an extended time.

“You have both been through much because I have not intervened. As you can understand now, I cannot
meddle
in the affairs of mortals
without damaging far too much
in consequence
. I watched as you battled your brother and my heart broke for
what
you
had to do
and the deeds he created. I ask not for forgiveness, but for understanding. I gave you both life in hopes to help me cont
rol your people
o
n an honest path
with the least distruction
. You have brought me much joy in how you love life and how you wish to set the life
,
I created
,
on a clear and hopeful
course
. Please continue to do as you have and know that I am proud to have had you.

“Raise your children well
and
that includes the mortals.
T
hey need as much guidance
as the offspring you have both had. Teach them to adapt and c
oexist with all forms of life. A
nd most of all
,
take a break when you are overworked. I don’t like to see my children exert more than they can bare. That is what happened to your elder brother Ragke and what was
beginning to
happen to Ranvan. Remember my words and love life as much as I do. Take care, Sorono and Connor. I must leave
now
before the mortals begin to
die.”

Connor
didn’t
consciously
realize how strongly Sarah was holding
onto his
arm
because in her fright her fingernails dug into
his
skin and drew blood. Despite the pain and the wet sensation
,
they
watched as the Hallowed Mother’s smoke-like form was being sucked into the crack it
erupted
from.

Just before the last of the smoke disappeared back into the earth
,
Connor
would swear
on
Tool that
he
saw her smiling at
them
like a proud mother
again
.

The air began to lighten as
their
real mother’s energy spread out and left
the area
once again.
S
ome of the people
in the room
had fainted from her presence, but a simple probe of the mind
revealed that
all
were
alive.

“Sorono?”
he
asked
while staring at the crack
thei
r mother vanished into.

“Yeah?”
he thought
back
in as much astonishment.

“What do we do now?”

“I haven’t a clue. I can’t believe that was really our mother…”

“You and me both. How can we top that entrance?”

“That’s the problem
,
we can’t.”
H
e snorted a small reptilian laugh.

“Agreed. At least one thing is for certain.”

They
finally looked at each other and found out
they
were both smiling in happiness. He then asked
“And what w
ould
that be?”

“We should have fun with our lives. We need to find a balance for what we
need
to do and what we
want
to do.”

“Agreed.”
And with that he grinned
.

“I know one way to do both.” They
all turned to Sarah as she finally relaxed her grip
on his
arm, but didn’t release her grasp
. She looked at
Connor’s
questioning
expression
and said “Look to the future and you’ll always see me. I can find you things to do and keep you from going overboard.”

That special
look in her eyes,
he’s seen it many times. It means he
ha
s
a lot of work to do, but it means a great reward
waits
in the end. Having her
near, he
can bare anything and make i
t through any obstacle
.

She truly is
his
soul mate.
The
one and only.

After
the
special
visitor mad
e her appearance and departed they
helped all those who were affected by her
intense
presence. Only a handful, including the American President, remained conscious through
out
the entire ordeal and listened to all that
had been
said. There was some outrage from those that didn’t understand, or didn’t want to, but the proof was undeniable. The Hallowed Mother had shown herself and said exactly what she wanted to
happen
.

One day, both Sorono and Connor would guide the
whole
world
together
.
Sarah
knew that they would be great leaders to the people, but what only those close enough to a Harmonizer already knew they were already the leaders any
one could ever hope to follow. She
would be the only few who wouldn’t follow
, but actually be beside these great men.
She
couldn’t be happier.

She
kissed Connor’s cheek as
they
left the roo
m full of the world’s leaders. Sarah
then cheerfully said “Let’s get the kids and go somewhere special?”

He
then
grinned
her
favorite smile. “Any place
in particular
?” He tapped his back pocket where he placed his badge and papers.

She
then said “The future is open wide to us now. How about we just make things up as we go along?”

“That’s the best plan I’ve heard all year.”

And then he kissed the top of
her
head just before
retrieving the
kids and went on and into
a
hopeful future.

Thank you so much for spending the time to read the first series I’ve written. I understand it isn’t the best writing, but the other series I’ve written far surpass this cycle. Any reviews will be much appreciated.
