Lachlan's POV
So Seto has powers. I honestly don't know if thats a good or bad thing. I guess it depends what powers he has huh? I look into his past. A while ago, when Mitch had showed him where he was staying, he told him what he could do. He could heal, create forces he sometimes can't control, and "see" with his eyes closed. AND he's a sorcerer. He seems like a nice person and I feel like I can trust him, but he also seems kind of intimidating, with his powers and sorcery. If he can never control that power, a lot of things can happen, and they can't be good.
Keeley came back in about an hour ago and went with Paige, Abella, and Sodes to go shopping for clothes and stuff, and probably to get food and maybe a doctor just in case. The rest of us were now in the living room just watching TV and talking about random stuff when we heard the door slam open. I flinched from the noise, and Vik actually jumped, hitting his head on the ceiling and falling down instead of landing back on his feet. Jerome and Rob ran to his side as he held his head as he groaned. I instantly teleported to the door and saw Seto standing, or floating rather, with his head tilted down a bit. He had a purple smoke coming from his hands and eyes and a sad look on his face. One of his hands was held out and he lowered it. Mitch was now next to me and he looked furious.
"What the hell are you doing? Calm down, you made Vik hurt himself!" Mitch walked up to him and shoved him a bit. All Seto did was look up a bit and push his way past him. He made his way towards the living room where Preston was standing, looking back and forth between Vik and us. Seto floated over to Rob, Vik, and Jerome with the same look on his face. He started to reach a hand down to Vik, but Jerome did something that probably made the whole situation worse. He punched him square in the gut, hard, causing him to become unstable and fall on the ground, not levitating anymore.
"Don't touch him. Get away from them right now Seto," Preston said, lighting his fist on fire. Seto stood up, holding his stomach with his hands still smoking. He looked up to him with a look of betrayal, which quickly turned to anger. Mitch and I were scared to move right now, but I could tell Mitch wanted to do something. Seto was just trying to help take away his pain. They don't know.
Seto reached one hand out towards Jerome and the other to Preston. Rob had carried Vik out of the room and up the stairs and Kenny followed since he didn't know what he could do to help in the situation. I hear Seto start with a mumble and slowly increase volume while he says, "στέλεχος του σώματός τους και να καταναλώνουν την ενέργειά τους," (strain their body and consume their energy) and he ends with a shout. The purple smoke that was around his hands shot out towards Jerome and Preston. It fills their chests and they wrap their arms around themselves. They shout in pain as they fall to their knees. They could die. I don't know what kind of spell he is putting on them, but they could be killed by it.
"Seto! Stop! They didn't know you were trying to help! Cut it out they didnt know!" Mitch shouted. Seto turned around to face our direction, his hands still facing the other two boys, with a face I couldn't read. It looked almost like hope and suspicion. Mitch made a chain appear around Seto's arms, forcing them down. Seto's face instantly turned to betrayal, hurt, and anger again before forcing his arms up, breaking the chains. Mitch fell to the ground in pain and Seto stared at me expectantly. I instantly closed my eyes and went through his past, hoping it could help with the situation right now. I saw when he accidentally hurt Keeley, showing instant regret when he realized he hurt her, someone breaking into his house, killing them, and coming here. I open my eyes and know what to say to get him to stop.
"Seto! You're hurting them! They are innocent and didn't know you could help and you're hurting them!" His face showed strong regret at my statement. He looked between the three boys on the ground and lowered his arms a bit.
"I-I am?" he forced out in a panicked voice just above a whisper. I nodded and continued.
"They didn't know! They were scared of what you looked like when you came in. They thought you were dangerous. They did what they thought was best and your hurting them. They didn't mean to do anything to you! Now stop before you cause them more pain!" He nodded and faced them. He kept his hands held up half way, not moving anymore. "Come on then! Put your arms down!" He shook his head. His arms started shaking and the smoke coming out of his hands got darker. Preston and Jerome started to yell louder and curl up into a ball on the floor. Mitch stood up weakly and used his power to pick up the couch that was a couple feet away from them. He stared at Seto as tears started to form in both of their eyes.
"YOU CAN'T CONTROL ME!!! I DON'T WANT YOU TO HURT THEM!!! I JUST WANT TO HELP!!! I'M NOT LIKE YOU!!! JUST LEAVE ME ALO-" Seto shouted before getting knocked of his feet by the couch. Preston and Jerome uncurled and laid flat on the ground, panting and trying not to cry. Seto was still conscious but was now shaking. He had been thrown to the other side of the living room and was on his hands and knees crying and looking like he was trying not to pass out. Mitch scrambled over to the sobbing mess while I quickly made my way to Preston and Jerome. I yelled for Rob who came downstairs with tear stains on his cheeks. I gave him a quick hug and asked him to take Preston to his room while I take Jerome to his. He nodded and picked up the now sleeping Preston and I grabbed the now sleeping Jerome and we took them to their rooms, Mitch now embracing Seto and whispering sweet nothings into his ears. Why is he helping him of all people?
I put Jerome on his bed and run into Vik's room. He was awake in bed and had a cold washcloth on his head. I smiled and gave him a tight hug and leaned in for a kiss, which he returned. He pulled away after a few seconds and I sat down on the bed next to him. "What happened down there Lachy?" He had a concerned, scared look on his face.
"To be honest, I don't know Vik. I don't know"
