The air between New and the Mist Walker thickened as they squared off, both drawing on powers beyond the mortal realm. The village around them seemed to fade into a backdrop, a distant memory against the swirling mist and shadows that now held the stage.

New’s heart raced, his pulse echoing in his ears. He could feel the magic coursing through his veins, but it was raw, untamed. He hadn’t yet learned to control it fully, and this battle would push him to his limits. He glanced at Tay, standing at the edge of the clearing, eyes full of worry and determination. He felt the weight of Tay’s hope and trust, knowing this was his fight to win.

“You think you can stand against me?” the Mist Walker’s voice echoed through the air, a dark whisper that seemed to slither around New. “You are nothing but a child, playing with powers you don’t understand.”

New clenched his fists, his breath steadying. “I may not understand everything yet, but I won’t let you win.”

With a swift motion, the Mist Walker unleashed a wave of darkness. Shadows surged towards New, twisting and forming into monstrous shapes. They snarled and charged, their eyes glowing with malicious intent. New raised his hands instinctively, summoning a barrier of light. The shadows crashed against it, the force of their impact making the ground tremble.

New struggled, the light flickering as he fought to maintain control. The pressure was immense, the power overwhelming. He could feel the Mist Walker probing his weaknesses, testing the limits of his resolve.

“Give in,” the Mist Walker hissed. “The magic inside you is mine. You cannot resist it forever.”
90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUrCuK9rft1
But New refused to yield. He closed his eyes, focusing on the warmth within him—the light that had saved him before. It wasn’t just magic. It was Tay. It was the love they shared, the bond that had grown between them. That connection had always been his strength.

Suddenly, the light within him flared, brighter and more powerful than before. The barrier solidified, pushing back the shadows. The Mist Walker recoiled, surprised by the surge of power.

New’s eyes snapped open, now glowing with a radiant energy. “You’re wrong. This power belongs to me. It always has.”

With a shout, he released the full force of his magic. The light exploded outward, disintegrating the shadowy creatures and sending a shockwave through the clearing. The Mist Walker staggered, his form flickering as the light washed over him.

“You… you can’t…,” the Mist Walker growled, but his voice was weaker now, his confidence shaken.
90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTJNmS4nHTD
New stepped forward, his power flowing freely now. He could feel the magic responding to his will, bending to his command. He was no longer afraid. “This ends now.”

The Mist Walker sneered, his form starting to dissipate into the mist. “You may have won this battle, but the darkness is always waiting. You cannot escape it.”

And with that, the Mist Walker vanished, his presence fading into the mist.

As the shadows lifted, the village came back into focus. The villagers, who had been watching in awe and fear, let out a collective breath of relief. The danger had passed, for now.

Tay rushed to New’s side, pulling him into a tight embrace. “You did it,” he whispered, his voice thick with emotion.
90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIAqEKQxiWG
New leaned into him, exhausted but triumphant. “I couldn’t have done it without you.”
90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS2OTSmkbc9
Tay pulled back slightly, looking into New’s eyes. “You were amazing. I knew you could do it.”
90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjMWzq6zZQd
New smiled, though his exhaustion was evident. “It’s not over yet, though. The Mist Walker might be gone, but the darkness is still out there. And I need to learn how to control this power if we’re going to stop it for good.”
90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ49SVeU5Gr
Tay nodded, his expression serious but full of pride. “We’ll figure it out. Together.”
90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwZuOBNJTmb
New felt a warmth spread through him at Tay’s words. Despite the battle they had just faced, he knew that as long as they were together, they could face whatever challenges lay ahead.

Later that night, as the village settled into an uneasy calm, New lay in Tay’s arms, staring up at the stars. The events of the day still weighed heavily on his mind, but for the first time in a long while, he felt at peace. Tay’s presence beside him was comforting, a reminder that no matter how dark things got, there would always be light.

Tay’s voice broke the silence. “I don’t know what’s coming next, but I promise you, I’m not going anywhere.”
90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4vuDbZKMdN
New smiled, closing his eyes as he nestled closer to Tay. “I know.”

The journey ahead was uncertain, and the darkness would return, but for now, they had this moment. And in that moment, New knew they would find a way to overcome whatever came their way—together.
