The Leo Shifter

Cyra goes outside to practice her pyrokinesis powers while wandering around, she stares at the right target to hit (logs under the pot). As soon as she stares at it with an eagle eye, she raises her hands to develop her fire. Cyra remembers her mentor’s words in her head, so she finally lights the logs up under the pot, and the pot begins to boil.

Cyra is surprised to see it work, her pyrokinesis powers are still improving in her. “Wow…” whispered Cyra, amazed. “Hey, you light up the campfire,” said Gilda. “Yeah, I did. I had to concentrate on my pyrokinesis skills,” said Cyra. “Really?” said Gilda. “Yep,” said Cyra. “Thanks, now I can cook the fish. My brother caught the big fish at the pond next door to the camp,” said Gilda. Cyra nodded.

Gilda started to cook the big fish: a salmon. Cyra sees Madison and Art going to the pond to look for frogs to discover, and she begins to worry. “Hey, Emily, where’s your sister and Art going?” said Cyra. “Well, she asked me if they could go to the pond to look for frogs, lizards, and other things around,” said Emily. “Really?” asked Cyra. “Yep,” said Emily. “I’ll keep an eye on those two for you,” said Cyra. “Thanks, Cyra, I appreciated it,” said Emily. Cyra goes to follow Art and Madison to have an eye on them around the camp. At the pond next to the Gold Meadow camp, Art and Madison made it there and so did Cyra.

As they made it to the pond, the two began to look for lizards while Cyra spied on them. “Hey, Art, look at the fish in the pond water,” said Madison. “I see, I wonder where the lizards or frogs are,” said Art. “Look, there’s one on the lily pad,” said Madison. “Let’s get it,” said Art.

The two teens sneak up on the frog, like predator animals spying on their prey. As they are about to catch the frog, the big, glowing red-eyed crocodile emerges from the pond, scaring Art and Madison. “Alligator!” shouted Madison, in fear. The two teens tried to stand back from the crocodile, but the big dangerous crocodile sneaked toward them like a predator. As it is about to attack them, Cyra defends them by shining herself bright in pyrokinesis, blinding the crocodile. As the crocodile is blinded by the fiery light from Cyra, Gabriel comes by and stabs the crocodile with his sword. “Are you guys OK?” Said Cyra. “Why did the crocodile have red eyes? What does it mean?” said Madison. “I don’t know, but we gotta go back,” said Cyra. “I agree with Cyra, we have to go back to the camp,” said Gabriel.

Cyra, Madison, Gabriel, and Art leave the pond and go back to the camp. “Hey, what’s going on?” said Emily. “There’s a crocodile, but Cyra and Gabriel saved us,” said Art. “Yeah,” said Madison. “Oh my god, are you guys hurt?” said Emily. “No, we’re not hurt. We’re OK,” said Madison. “Oh ok, good. Next time, watch out for dangerous creatures around,” said Emily. “OK,” said Madison. “Thanks, guys,” said Emily, talking to Cyra and Gabriel. “You are certainly welcome,” said Gabriel. “No problem, bestie. That’s what friends are for,” said Cyra.

That Night… Cyra is brushing one of the horses’ manes in the stable, Gabriel comes by to meet her there. “Hey,” said Cyra. “Hello,” said Gabriel. “My mentor Madame Leilani taught me how to heal and care for animals, she helped me tame animals with magic and mind power,” said Cyra.

“Really?” said Gabriel. “Yeah… Thanks for helping save the kids,” said Cyra. “I always help others,” said Gabriel. “Are you… with someone?” asked Cyra, a little nervous.

“I was betrothed to a woman I fell in love with in the past, she was a warrior. When I first met her, we were celebrating at the beach. She was one of the Gold Meadow citizens, she had green eyes. She had her eyes on me and took me to a place where we started our love for the first time. We made love for the first time, we fought monsters together. We were unbreakable until as we were about to get married, a giant centipede emerged from the ground. She sacrificed her life for me and the others, she was eaten alive. I screamed with rage and devastation, Silver Knights, and I finally defeated the centipede until it was dead. I was still devastated over her death, causing me not to believe in true love. But I remain a strong knight. Her name was Solana.” said Gabriel, telling Cyra about his past and his first love.

“I’m so sorry that you lost your soon-to-be wife. At least, you got your revenge, right?” said Cyra. “Yep…” said Gabriel, feeling down. “Hey… You feel down about it, I’m here for you. Even my friends are here for you, too. I was raised by my great aunt who looked out for me while my parents disappeared, and had no idea where they are after they left,” said Cyra, wiping Gabriel’s one tear off of his cheek while caressing his beautiful face. “Thanks, I’m really sorry that your parents disappeared,” said Gabriel. “Thank you…” said Cyra. Cyra takes a look at Gabriel’s attractive abs, her hands were on his chest. Gabriel looks at her hands touching his chest, he started to blush. “Oh my god,” whispered Cyra, looking at his chest. Gabriel caressed Cyra’s cheek, they looked into their eyes and souls. “You’re so beautiful,” said Gabriel.

Cyra giggled softly, licking her lip. Gabriel kisses her on the lips, she kisses him back. They shared a first kiss. They pulled away for a moment, looking into their eyes again. They kissed again, in a passionate way. Their lips connected with each other, and their tongues slowly met each other. Cyra’s arms are wrapped around his neck, while Gabriel’s arms are around her waist. As they are kissing, Madison and Art come by before they have shocked looks on their faces when they see them. “Jesus Christ, what’s going on here?” said Madison. Cyra and Gabriel stopped kissing when they heard Madison and noticed they were in a stable as well, blushing.

“Maddie, Art, what are you doing here?” said Cyra. “We just came by to talk to her and then we saw you two making out,” said Madison. “We just kissed, no lovemaking going on,” said Gabriel. Cyra nodded as she agreed with Gabriel. “I see you, Cyra, we see you two,” said Madison as she and Art smirked.

Cyra and Gabriel glared at them when Madison and Art teased them, and Madison and Art left. Cyra facepalms as she giggled. “Are you OK?” said Gabriel. “I’m fine… It’s just a little awkward, but the kiss was amorously beautiful.” Said Cyra. “Do you love the kiss?” asked Gabriel. “Yes, it was amazing,” said Cyra.

The Next Day… Cyra and her friends set out to go to the Gemini Kingdom, they’re in the valley. “Madison told me that you and Gabriel kissed last night,” said Emily, smirking and teasing. “Oh come on, it just happened so fast,” said Cyra. “Man, no fair. I wish I had a man like Gabriel. I wonder if Gabriel had a twin brother,” said Emily. “Never had a twin, but I have 5 brothers and 3 sisters,” said Gabriel. “Mmm, I hope your brothers look handsome,” said Emily. “Girl…” said Cyra, glaring as she laughed.

As they are exploring the valley, they discovered something remarkable and extraordinary. They see people with white capes, white gloves, and white lion masks performing their own rituals with good magic at the Gold Meadow ruins.

“Who are those guys?” asked Emily. “They’re the Leo Guardians that my mentor was talking about,” said Cyra. “Leo Guardians are the greatest wizards of the Leo Magic in the Gold Meadow,” said Gabriel.

The Leo Guardians chant over the fire while raising their hands above. The lions approached the ritual, the eagles flew around the magical fire, and the sunflowers grew around the ruins. The wolves in the Gold Meadow howl and the lions roar. The Leo Guardians spotted Cyra and her friends. “Come, Leo child,” said the leader of the Leo Guardians, talking to Cyra.

“Cyra, they want you in the ritual,” said Gabriel.
