The Atlantean Compensator

Knowing about his powers confused them.

Oumad was the first to talk to him.

"..Herald, don"t know what to really say but we"ll figure out a way.

Also, why even using that option? You may have power other than that."

Herald. "Yeah, probably..

Don"t worry about me! Are you going to be the next?"

Oumad. "I still haven"t figured out a plan. The only way was to see whether there"s an alternative line that i can pick in which Heracles will be moving in. But I have already drained my powers yesterday."

Herald. "Did you teleport into the future?"

Oumad. "Yeah.."

Alkeyder. "Time is running out!"

Ayla chose to be the next.

"Me sir! My turn."

Alkeyder. "Oh it"s female"s turn then. Go on!"

Love tells Ayla. "Goodluck baby! It should be a peice of cake for you."

Ayla. "Really??"

Love. "Yes, now go."

On her way, Ayla thinks about what Love meant.

"A peice of cake? How come? He doesn"t seem to be the person to be easily persuated by his feelings...

But I"ll see."

She stood in front of him.

"h.e.l.lo sir!"

She reaches to shake his hand.

Heracles shakes her hand in return. But he felt something the moment their hands touched.

Ayla. "I hope you"ll accept this little gift."

Heracles smiles. "Interesting. I don"t mind it! Let"s see what can it do."

Ayla"s eyes lightenned up all of a sudden.

While Heracles closed his.

Ayla says, while here eyes are bright like lamps.

"Please. Move your left foot."

Heracles felt it inside him.. his facial expression showed it.

He looked like he"s really concentrating on something!

Ayla says again. "Please sir!"

Heracles" facial expressions tightens even more. Even his left foot started to shake a bit.

However, for the rest this scene is as weird as it gets.

Sebastin. "...Why is she begging him??"

Joshou. "More importantly..Why is he looking like he"s having a hard time standing in his spot??"

Love laughs. "Hhahahah..Who thought the Great Heracles would struggle against a first day female disciple! This is glorious."

Alkeyder. "Oh please! You know very well why.."

This even confused the others more.

Herald asks. "What do you mean Master?"

Love. "Ayla"s powers are...How can i say it?

Irresestible!!

You can say it"s mind control in order to understand them, but it actually isn"t."

Beazly. "..So she"s making him move his foot by asking him to do so...kindly?"

Love laughs. "hahahhaha..That"s a way to put it!"

Alkeyder. "But it looks like she needs more than just that.

Heracles is still not moving. And her lights are getting weaker, symbolizing her drained energy."

Ayla"s began to struggle as well.

She says

"...For the...One you love!!!"

Heracles struggles even more. "...UUUUGHGHHHHH!!!"

Ayla"s lights are quickly fading, but before it completely goes.

She screams. "FOR THE LOVE OF G.o.d!!"

And Instantly!!

Heracles foot moved a centimeter!!!

He opens his eyes, looks at his foot, then towards Ayla.

Who"s halting from the excessive effort she put...

Beazly. "..Did he move??"

Sebastin. "..I think so, his foot made a very low sound i could barely catch."

Oumad. "..Doesn"t seem to me that he moved!"

Ayla faints!!

But before she could reach the ground heracles picks her up on his arms.

Sebastin. "s.h.i.t! She fainted!!"

Heracles puts his hand on top of her chest, without touching it.

Little flames started to appear from his hand, piercing right through Ayla"s chest.

This action lasted 10seconds, before she regained her consciousness!

Ayla gets up on her feet.

"..Sorry sir!"

Heracles. "You don"t have to be. You did exceptionally well!"

Ayla. "It took all my powers to move you one centimeter.. You didn"t get ur name from nothing!"

Heracles. "I"ll reconsider this, for you to beat me in this is something I"ll take personal."

Ayla gets scared. "NO PLEASE!! I won"t do it again."

Heracles laughs. "Hhahahaha, I am just joking.

I moved my feet by my will when i sensed that your powers are about to get drained.

But you did push me to some limits!

I had to enter My Zen state in order to kick the little you you"ve put inside me."

Ayla is amazed. "Woah...I didn"t think someone can do that."

Heracles. "You won"t meet many who"ll be able to do so anyways..

Your powers are special."

Ayla feels proud of herself after hearing these words, she thanks Heracles again and gets back to her place.

Love hugs her. "I am proud of you! Told you it"s a piece of cake for you."

Ayla. "Hhahahaa well you lied then."

Love smiles. "Had to motivate you! Also Heracles moved himself because he was afraid you"ll beat him."

Ayla says shockingly. "OH REALLY??"

Heracles says from afar. "I CAN HEAR YOU! THAT IS WRONG!!"

Everybody laughs for a moment.

Alkeyder. "Good job young woman!"

Sebastin. "Yes Ayla! But...What was it that you really did there?"

Ayla. "Well, when we shoke hands, i inserted a part of me inside him. A little version of myself that runs through his blood veins up.

I myself don"t know what to exactly call my powers but you already know they have to do with emotions. I can trigger them once i insert the little me inside.

So that was it, I tried to use the strongest feeling in order to move him.

Which is..."

Alkeyder completes. "..Love!"

Then looks towards Love.

Everybody does also.

Love. "Oh easy there with all these looks..

Yes indeed, I have similar powers to hers.. Or i should say it"s the other way arround."

Ayla. "Wow...I only just thought about this now...That"s why you said it"s going to be a piece of cake?"

Love. "Yes, I know what your powers are capable of!"

Ayla looks happy.

"I feel glad that someone knows how my powers exactly feel..Lucky me!"

Love taps on Ayla"s shoulders.

"Yeah, we"ll have a lot of fun together don"t worry!"

Alkeyder. "How sweet!

Anyways, only two of you are left..Who"s going to be next?"

Elara and Oumad look at each other.

Oumad was about to say it"s him but Elara was quicker

"Me."

Alkeyder. "Alright, I"ve been waiting for this actually!"

Elara calmly walks towards Heracles, with her head looking down and the wind smoothly playing with her white and blue summer robe.

Beazly encourages her. "Goodluck Elara!!"

Elara looks behind and smiles for him.

A smile that melts everyone"s heart once again.

Alkeyder tells Love. "...It"s really her."

Love. "Yes. No doubt! Her beauty is impecable. I have no problem admiting she"s prettier than me.."

Alkeyder. "Oh..Should I have no problem agreeing too?"

Love looks annoyed at Alkeyder.

Alkeyder laughs. "Hhahaha, okey okey.."

Herald found this conversation a bit interesting. Although he doesn"t know much about Elara, nor the rest... But he thought about what they said, also the way Alkeyder and Love talk to each other is a bit different than how she talks for example with Power.

This, he"ll keep in his mind. But is it really important?

Compared to what he has to deal with from now on.. It"s really not!

So again, he"s lost in his thoughts...

Elara on the other hand stands in front of Heracles, couple of meters away..

He says. "..You seem to be the strongest of them all.

From when I first saw you yesterday, I could tell that right away."

Elara, still not making any eye contact.

"I believe so too... None of them had to deal with what i had to from the moment i was born."

Heracles. "So your source of powers is your agony and suffering..."

Elara says as she"s lifting her face to look straight into Heracles" eyes.

"I don"t know!"
