《HP The Birth Of Darkness》Chapter 16

[The same day, a few hours later]
I am finishing making a hole to bury Morfin, I went to the cabin to find something to help me and I was able to get a bar and a shovel to dig
It was a bit more complicated than I thought to make the hole, it has to be big enough for the body and deep enough to avoid future problems.
If I had found a proper knife I could cut off its legs and make the hole smaller
Too bad I couldn't find one that would work
As I push the body into the hole I think about the things I could get from Morfin
His magic wand and a ring with some strange symbols.
I laugh as I think that at this rate I will probably become a magic wand collector.
Right now I have in my possession the wands of Marvolo and Morfin, I already have two wands and I have not bought mine yet hehe
I wonder if my mother has one, I never saw her use it, maybe I will look for it in the future so that all the wands of the Gaunt family are together.
Speaking of my mother, I wonder what happened to her, she is probably dead
It has been 10 years without returning home, it is a long time.
well, what does it matter, maybe in the future when I'm bored I will find out what happened to her.
I decide to do a meditation session to be in optimal conditions before trying to cross the barrier to my brain
I begin to guide the energy towards my chest, when I gather a sufficient amount, I begin to direct it towards my neck
When the magic energy hits the barrier, I feel a strong pain throughout my body, but mainly in my head.
I feel like my brain is being hammered and my body is being cooked in a pot.

The pain is quite strong but this is nothing compared to the torture that the stupid old men subjected me to when they captured me
as he continued forcing the magic energy to crash into the barrier the pains increased.
as time passes the barrier begins to give way, but so does my body
I seem to underestimate the capacity of my body, little by little I start to lose control
I quickly wonder if I should continue to the end or if it would be better to stop and try again later.
the logical option seems to try and when my body can no longer resist the damage stop, but I have the feeling that I may lose a unique opportunity if I give up and do not try until the last consequences
So after weighing my options, I decided to give it a try until my body can't take it anymore.
after about 10 minutes the barrier is about to break, but my body is also close to breaking
I can't stop shaking, I'm drenched in sweat and I'd swear I'm bleeding from all my holes
I think I'm about to pass out, but before that, I feel like something "clicked" in my body and energy quickly flooded my brain
then my body could not resist anymore, I left my meditation phase and felt like I lost control of everything
my body seemed to be having an epileptic seizure
then suddenly my vision changed
See a room with many journalists and a lectern where a person in a white tuxedo and a sad face is speaking.
"Unfortunately today I must announce the sad news to the empire"
"The elders of the council suffered an attack, a bomb detonated while the transmission was taking place and they died"
"We are currently working with all relevant authorities as we investigate what were the reasons for such a shameless attack and act of contempt against our glorious empire."

when the person at the lectern finished speaking, the journalists were trying to assimilate the bomb they had just heard
Then I could see that an agile reporter raised her hand as she asked
"Sir, you think the attack is related to the….
but before I could continue listening I felt that a vortex appeared that absorbed all the image that I was seeing
Then there was a void in front of me, a big black spot
while I was looking at that black spot a light appeared in the distance
that light quickly becomes more radiant and expands, until all I can see is that light that blinds me, then forcing me to close my eyes
When I open my eyes, the scene that I was looking at changed
a person with a black robe that covers his entire body sits in an alley on a carpet with a deck of cards, on the sides there are 2 streets where many people pass, the vast majority also have robes, wizards probably
the person sat for a long time in complete silence while observing this person I had the feeling that I was looking at myself in the future
after a while, a group of 4 youngsters walked down one of the streets
While they were talking, one of them was attracted to the person in the alley and without a word to his companions decided to approach him.
He was a boy of 12 or 13 years old probably, with blond hair, a little long and a wart on his left cheek.
He approached the black-robed man and asked shyly
"Sir ... how much do you charge"
That question seems a little stupid and out of place I thought
The person was silent for a long time when the boy seemed somewhat uncomfortable, he heard a male voice saying
"Stretch your two hands child"
the boy timidly stretched out his hands and the man grabbed both of his forearms
I could see that the boy was really scared when he saw his hands and felt the grip, his legs were shaking like jelly
after a few seconds, the shoulder released the boy and began to shuffle the cards, meanwhile he asked him
"What do you want to know child, just one thing, think carefully"
the boy thought seriously as he watched hypnotized as the man shuffled the cards
"I want to know about the future, about my future" replied that child
"Hahaha everyone wants to know about their young future, but can you accept the results?" the robed man said
after he finished shuffling he used his hands to spread all the cards on the mat
"The past, the present and the future the great unknown that wraps us all in its mantle"
"To know about your future your two eyes you must close and select 3 cards by touching them with your right index finger"
the boy followed the instructions of that man and selected 1 to 1 the three cards
when the man told him that he could open his eyes he could see that there were three tarot cards on the carpet
the man uncovered the first card, the one on the left and it was "Judgment" but the card was reversed
"An interesting card represents your weakness, your doubts, your inner shyness, the need to make a change that you are aware of and which you want but do not have the necessary courage to make"
when the man was going to raise the second letter the same thing happened again
a vortex swallowed everything I saw and left me in total darkness while I thought about what those images that I had just observed meant

Humanity's End
Given a year to prepare by the mysterious ‘system’ for contact with the wider galaxy, humanity must work to ensure the Earth’s defense is ready to meet any challenge. Sadly, most of the world seems dedicated to tearing itself apart as the year-end deadline gets closer. The west is in barely contained Chaos, while the east descends into internal conflict and war. The Pillar Forts, one of the few successful projects of the United Nations headed by the United States, stand ready to defend humanity against any invasion that may come through the strange Connection Pillars that appeared on each continent. Massive steel and stone walls that surround the Connection Pillars. They are filled with deadly men and women trained in all manner of warfare, each trained in the newly acquired System with skills and magical abilities that they put to deadly purpose. Beside these brave warriors, tanks, helicopters, artillery and more stand ready to defend humanity at each of these powerful installations. But, can they overcome the disparity in levels and experience between themselves and the forces that threaten them and the rest of humanity? Main Characters Jessica Brown- A young African American girl. Her 18th birthday in Detroit was the same day the systems message appeared. She discovered she was Level 7, much higher than most of the rest of the world. Why she is blessed, or cursed, with the power she doesn’t know. But what she does know is that she rather likes the feeling that comes with manipulating magic. The week after her birthday, government workers started testing every person in the US in a massive census effort of skills and abilities. Jessica Brown found herself conscripted into the US Magical Corp, a new branch of the US Military, and shipped off to a Pillar Fort. Somewhere hot and muggy in her ancestors’ home of Africa. As she grows stronger, she finds she has some connection to the pillars. While everyone else sees beauty or danger when they look at the pillars, after connection is made all Jessica can see is a Tree. A tree the size of the entire universe. Isaka Smith - is a third generation American and farmer who just wants to be left alone. But she is dragged into the situation by events beyond her control. When people in her small town had to deal with rioters and looters after the system announcement, she rallied them to defend themselves, earning her a trait that the government found extraordinarily useful. After a visit to a local reservation, she finds herself conscripted to lead one of the many small support towns erected around the great pillar forts. Not near her old home, but in far-flung Africa. John McIntire, the “Fighting Bull” -The commander of the African Fort, but because of circumstances beyond his ability to contend with shortly after taking command after being re-activated from retirement, he finds communication with his chain of command increasingly difficult. The US government, hell, even the United Nations, seems to have fallen into complete and utter chaos. The African Union is embroiled in a bitter civil war just outside his door, and supposedly, most of the world governments are in similar situations. Meanwhile, John must do his best to be ready to facilitate diplomacy, or to match the hostile argument of whatever force might come through the pillar of light when the year timer finishes counting down. Can our heros defend Earth from outside threats, while it tares itself apart? Or will they need to rebuild from the ground up? DEDICATION: This story is dedicated to my father who passed away recently. Jim Holloway, you’ll be missed you old silverback gorilla. Love you dad. Always have, always will.
