The Guild of Beasts (3)
• But things for the brothers took a turn for the worse once Nya settled into the Beasts Guild and accepted their terms. Nya found it strange that several of the Guild members forbade her from making any kind of contact with Kai, not even the letters Kai wrote to her didn't even reach Nya's hands, they didn't even prevent Kai's calls from reaching her phone, not even Nya's calls reached Kai's phone, as Nya's calls were blocked by the Guild.
• Kai wasn't even allowed into the Guild to at least talk to Nya, and knowing that he wouldn't get anywhere, Kai decided to stop trying to communicate with Nya and hoped that she would at least go find him. Since then Kai has seen how Nya's fame was growing, he saw her on magazine covers, news and newspapers, Kai knew that her sister was already a celebrity. Kai tried to keep up with her daily routine, but it was hard to do when her sister was away from her and he hadn't heard from her in days.
• But not only Kai had a bad time. Many people in the world suffered losses from creatures and magical leaks, practically almost 70% of humanity was full of people with Blessings, jobs all over the world were declining, but with time the economy and jobs came back to the surface, but not like before, many jobs no longer require normal humans and that has affected many people, and more poor people, leaders and companies in the world try to make people without Blessings able to find jobs like before.
• Kai was still working at the smithy, and because she wanted to earn more money, she had to take additional jobs at the shop. It was heavy for Kai but still he kept going, even the workshop was full of new magical tools and ores to increase profit, Kai was allowed to study the new ores and create new weapons.
• But it seemed that the creatures did not stop appearing, alarms were installed throughout the city to alert the population, but there were creatures that even evaded the security of the city and that of the Guilds. A Y-class creature resembling a mutant rhino attacked the area where the workshop where Kai worked was located, and caused countless casualties in addition to the destruction of the workshop itself, it turns out that a gang of magical creature dealers imprisoned this magical rhino and kept it hidden around the area, but it escaped and started causing great destruction all over the place. Kai was seriously injured by the rhino attack and was hospitalized for a few days, I hope Nya will visit him but he never came, when he got out of the hospital he found that his boss died in the accident and the workshop was completely destroyed, the workshop workers who survived the attack had to find a new job, some of them were kind enough to recommend Kai some new jobs that might be perfect for a boy his age.
• Kai tried to look for new jobs, but almost all of them required people Awakened with Blessings, Kai had to work as a helper in some workshops, but they didn't pay him enough to keep his house and himself, several of his colleagues and bosses told him that he could work better in the Dungeons as a miner, Kai knew that it would be a dangerous job since he could expose himself too much to the creatures of the Dungeons that attacked him, but they always said that the workers' pay was good. Kai had no choice but to work in the dungeons as a miner, even working overtime.
• Life in the Dungeons was not so easy, the work was really heavy and almost all the time Kai suffered from accidents, either by the creatures or by the work effort itself. He had to sell several things from his house in order to better support himself and pay for the repairs to the house, which he suffered too much from the attacks of the creatures. Then, however, when the first year without Nya ended, a group of criminals with Blessings attacked everyone in Kai's neighborhood so that they could expand their territory, the help took time to reach Kai's neighborhood since they took all the inhabitants hostage, including Kai, the fight between the gang of criminals and the Hunters left several casualties in Kai's neighborhood, after that event the neighborhood became uninhabitable and many left the place, Kai and a few other inhabitants had to stay already. They had nowhere else to go.
• Kai again tried to communicate with Nya, but his sister and the Guild did not give him that permission. Kai kept working harder in the Dungeons, he had to work even in the Clandestine Dungeons, Dungeons that operate outside the law for guys who only seek to extract the precious minerals and treasures in an illegal way. During that time, Kai's health deteriorated, he no longer took care of himself as before, his only thought was to want to continue working to be able to maintain what little was left of his home. The works in the Dungeons became more difficult after several of his companions forced him to act as bait to attract the creatures and trap them with the help of some Awakened, who were hired for the security of some Dungeons.
• After the second year ended, things didn't improve for Kai, now he had become the object of ridicule of several Awakened just because Kai was one of the few people without the Blessing who accepted the dangerous jobs of the Dungeons. Things got worse for Kai when a creature caused a cave-in in the Dungeon where he worked, Kai managed to help several workers to get out of the place, but he didn't get away so easily, some debris managed to trap him and severely injure his legs, the workers managed to get him out and send him to the hospital, Kai had to spend too much on his legs surgery and recovery, but after being canned, Kai didn't walk well again, he had to use crutches to get by. move while her legs recovered from surgery.
• Upon arriving at his house, Kai was surprised to see that for the first time in two years, Nya went home to visit him, but not to have a friendly sibling talk like before, apparently Kai wanted to say many things to Nya but she coldly cut him off saying that he should never work in the Dungeons anymore and live a different kind of normal life, she even left him an envelope with a lot of money so that he could support himself, very soon several escorts arrived at his home and did not let him near Nya, without Not even looking back at him, Nya was once again pulled away from Kai.
• Kai was left alone again, he stopped receiving news about Nya again, he tried with all his might to live another type of life away from the Dungeons, but it was impossible, since nobody wanted to hire him due to the fractures in his legs, he spent the money that his sister had left him in repairs for his house and medicine to improve the strength of his legs, however, debts soon appeared for Kai since he owed a lot of money to the hospital since he was behind in his payments for the recovery of his legs, plus other late payments for the home repairs and bills.
• Kai had no choice but to go back to work in the Dungeons since it was the only place where they would accept anyone to work. Even with his injuries, Kai had to try too hard to work like before, many teased him for being too weak, but Kai ignored them and continued with his work.
• However, in the Dungeon where Kai was, a fierce battle began between a Legendary Beast of fire and a Z-class dark creature, the creature was known as the Dark Matter Dragon, and the Legendary Beast was Flame, Beast of Fire, who by the way was a Legendary Beast that was too sought after as it was extremely powerful and dangerous at the same time, despite moving away to live quietly on his own, Flame did not tolerate humans and did not hesitate to attack anyone who bothered him, that is why it was one of the most wanted creatures in Ninjago.
• The battle between these two creatures was so devastating that it caused a cave-in in the Dungeon, many managed to get out but Kai was not so lucky, his legs prevented him from running out of danger and all he could do was hide behind some rocks while trying to avoid the confrontation of the two beasts. Flame fiercely fought against the dark creature and even cursed for not being able to defeat it as quickly as other creatures he has faced.
• Seeing that the Legendary Beast was losing, Kai decided to help it, he leaned against the wall and limped towards a crane that was there, which had several heavy iron pipes in its claw. Kai activated it and made the claw drop the tubes onto the dark creature's head, giving the Legendary Beast some advantage in recovering from the attacks. However that made Kai reveal his location and the dark creature used his tail as a whip to attack Kai, the impact of the tail severely injured Kai, further damaged his legs and now had a deep wound on his side. Flame saw this and couldn't believe that he was saved by a simple human, who didn't even have a Blessing, when he saw that the dark creature was going to attack again, Flame impulsively prevented it and again the dark creature fixed its attention on Flame.
• Flame was exhausted, and that caused the creature to deal a critical claw blow to Flame's body, when it seemed to be the end for both Flame and Kai, suddenly an attack of water appeared from the skies and in an elegant and powerful way Nya appeared in front of Kai, who was only left speechless by the sudden and miraculous appearance of his younger sister.
• Nya managed to get Kai to safety while she faced the creature, but the creature overwhelmed Nya in her power, Kai could see how her sister had a hard time facing the creature. He saw that the Legendary Beast was still on the ground and hobbled over to him to demand that he get up and fight again, Flame was badly injured, and he was annoyed that Kai yelled at him to fight one more time, however, a rash opportunity occurred to him for both of them to get out of this chaos alive. Flame proposed to Kai to make a fusion deal, usually Flame knew that Kai wouldn't survive his fusion with him because he was just a normal human, but at least he hoped to take Kai's body and recover to fight again, this was Flame's condition to Kai, even if he didn't survive, Kai knew that somehow the creature would be defeated and Nya could be saved. Fearlessly, Kai accepted the deal, Flame started the Binding spell and Kai nearly lost his life due to the excess power within him, but wanting with all his might to save Nya, that miraculously made him survive Flame's Binding spell. Flame was impressed by this and let Kai harness some of his power to take on the dark creature.
• When it seemed that Nya was on the ropes, Kai and Flame suddenly attacked the creature and with several savage blows, managed to defeat it, which made Kai gain experience and it was revealed that he was finally an S-class Awakened. Although of course, not controlling Flame's power well, it could severely affect him, Flame knew this too, and not wanting his new host to get badly burned, he deactivated his power for now. Kai was too exhausted and fell to the ground, but Nya caught up with him and managed to bring him to his senses.
• Nya discovered that her brother had made a contract with a Legendary Beast, and it turned out to be a highly dangerous Legendary Beast. After two years without seeing each other, neither of them knew where to start, however Flame interrupted them as she sneered seeing that the two were brothers. Nya impulsively forced Flame to leave her brother's body, but Flame replied that that would not be possible since even if it was a miracle that Kai survived their Union, it would be just as dangerous to remove it from Kai, as that could kill him in the process, as they technically shared the same life, and separating him from Kai would be equivalent to taking the same life from him. Furthermore, Flame added that if Kai didn't control his power, the same power could consume him and destroy him from within.
• Nya wanted to argue more with Flame but Kai stopped them both, looked Nya in the eye and demanded everything that happened the day she joined the Guild and why she never looked for him or contacted him, and why only Nya saw him that day when he got home from the hospital where he only left an envelope with money to never see her again. Nya knew that this day would come, so she explained everything that happened to Kai and why she never looked for him.
