loose spirit in multiversal mayham

Chapter 16: exorcists training



The next morning the group and squigly were in a basketball/training area and they were waiting for Monica who was there spiritual energy control teacher.

Squigly: so this Monica woman is your spiritual energy teacher?

Max: yup she is pretty good at teaching us how to utilize our spiritual energy.

Micheal: she even gave me some pointers on my ability.

Squigly had a thought crossing her head max demonstrated how strong spiritual energy is so if this Monica is good in spiritual energy control then maybe she can learn how use it too.

Then a woman came through the door it was Monica the instructor of spiritual energy control.

Monica: max it's great to see that you are okay.

Max: thanks i assume Miguel and the others told you my situation?

Monica: yes they did but let's not get to that I'm here to see how you well your control is proceeding now let's see what you all have.

Peter stuck out his hand.

Peter: actually can me and max spar?

Max: wow Pete you can at least by me dinner first.

Monica: sure you two can go at it.

Squigly was curious about Peter's abilities she didn't interact with him but she can tell that he is a good person.

Monica: do you are the girl from another world?

Squigly jumped in her seat when she heard Monica behind her.

Monica: sorry for scaring you Miguel told me about you and I couldn't contain my curiosity.

Squigly: it's okay.

Monica sat by squigly noticing something but that will come later.

Peter and max took there fighting stances and flared up there spiritual energies.

Peter: so weapons or just hands?

Max: I'm fine with hands.

Peter: okay.

Peter then disappeared and appeared behind max with a kick at the ready but max managed to duck and swoop Peter of balance and putting him in the ground.

Peter felt the back of his head impact the floor but he recovered and saw max about to punch him with a spiritual energy enhanced fist of course he wasn't going to stand there he rolled out of the way and max hit the floor making a web marks but Peter made his hand sign and flared up his spiritual energy to create clones of him 3 in total.

Squigly was surprised to see a cloning ability she heard leviathan talking about a shapeshifter that can separate its body parts and turn into anyone but seeing this was quite impressive.

Max was surrounded by 4 peters thanks to Peter's training he improved his concentration and how to share his consciousness with his clones so this Might be a tough fight.

One of the Peter decide to attack max dodged it but he was met with a kick to the back knocking him in the ground and he was dog pilled by the Peter's and one which was the first one to land on his was chokeholding him and the pressure on his back wasn't help.

Peter: tap out man your done.

Max: like hell.

Max decided to take a gamble and he gathered black arm in his back and made spikes piercing all the Peter's who were banishing in red particles.

He thought it was a gamble because for all he knew he could have accidentally kill Peter by accident and that's why it was a risk but that aside.

Max got up grabbing his neck and looked around but beside from the watchers there was no sign of Peter.

He used his senses and realized that he was up in the roof himself hiding in wave like things on the roof but when he looked up Peter was dropping down with an axe kick ready.

Max was caught off guard and blocked it with his arms the kick landed and the ground caved in a little under max and Peter used max's arm to jump back to gain some space.

Monica: alright that's enough.

Max and Peter stopped fighting and stood at attention.

Monica: you two are improving though remember this is spiritual energy training not physical.

Max: huh? Then Why did you let us fight?

Monica: because I you two are almost like brothers.

Max/peter: true.

Monica: now with physical combat out of the way let's actually get to see your control in your spiritual energy.

Squigly was off to the side but she watched as they all were displaying their abilities

Micheal had lightning like abilities

Bonnie can create bubbles that can explode or be soft

Seina has the spirit of the tiger.

Sonia: has the body of an only.

Rebecca can absorb sounds through her spiritual energy and let it out in a massive shock wave of sound.

And Ken has the ability to swap places with objects or people.

Squigly was astonished at the amount of powers someone can get via spiritual energy and she decided to approach Monica.

Squigly: excuse me miss Monica.

Monica: don't be so formal just call me Monica.

Squigly: can you teach me how to control spiritual energy like the others.

Monica was quite for a while but she decided to humor her.

Monica: sure.. I'll be right back squigly and I are going to talk.

Monica and squigly got out the basketball court.

Micheal: what do you think that was about?

Bonnie: no clue.

Outside monice guided squigly to a forest area with pillars and a stone staircase

Monica sat cross legged and sat across from her.

Monica: I will assume that you want to learn about this because you saw how effective it is.

Squigly: yes I have and max's mom asked me to protect him while we are in other worlds but I'm not strong enough and max's power is more powerful than a parasite.

Leviathan: as much it pains me to say I will have to admit that if squigly and max fought we would be dead ten times over.

Monica: so you want to learn spiritual energy to keep up with him?

Squigly: yes please he has helped me with so much and I've barely done anything help him.

Monica: I can tell you know how to fight so that isn't on the list but you definitely have potential thanks to max that awoke your soul.

Squigly: my soul?

Monica: you see girl my eyes aren't just normal eyes I can sense and see the flow of spiritual energy in people and myself so when I look at you I see that you're parasite and your soul are almost one separate but still one.

Squigly: is that good or bad?

Monica: if the relationship is toxic it would be an ugly mess but you and leviathan seem to have a partnership bond so your connection is good.

Squigly: so can I?

Monica: you have potential sure but you will have to learn a lot now turn around I'm going to awake your spiritual energy.

Squigly turn and Monica touched her back and closed her eyes and focused she could see a violet and a pinkish flame with some effort Monica put her own energy into squigly's soul and the flames flickered with ferocity.

Squigly started to feel a warm feeling but it wasn't her body but her soul was the warming feeling.

She opened her eye and she saw that she was surrounded by violet fire and she felt refreshed.

Monica: give it a few second to calm down when people first awake to their spiritual energy it takes a while for the energy to calm down.

Seconds passed and like Monica said the energy calmed down and squigly felt a connection to her soul and before it felt hollow but now she can feel her soul burning with power.

Monica: now since we still have time let's teach you the basics.

Squigly payed attention to Monica's instructions.

Monica: first you need to grasp your spiritual energy. you feel your soul right feeling? Focus on that and flow it through your body.

Squigly closed her eye and focused her soul and once she did she focused the energy into her whole body and squigly felt her skin and muscles getting stronger than even before.

Monica: good now for the second part what is your ability.

Leviathan: I believe I'm the key to that.

All the sudden squigly's spiritual aura was covered in turned into pink fire and Monica was analyzing the flames.

Monica: looks like your flame have healing properties of course it wouldn't be fire if it couldn't burn you can change it from healing to damaging fire that will come in handy if max gets in an intense situation.

Squigly: leviathan why did you say you're the key?

Leviathan: well when your soul awake mine did to and like miss Monica said your soul and mine are one thanks to our parasitic relationship so when I say I'm the key I mean I can control my..no our flames.

Squigly was admiring her new abilities she still had a lot to learn but at least it's big step for her.

Monica got up and dusted off her clothes.

Monica: now then let's go back I'm pretty sure they are asking what are we doing.

Squigly also got up and dusted off her clothes.

In the basketball field the group were waiting for Monica to come back with squigly.

Bonnie: guys think that she is in trouble?

Ken: I don't think so all she did was speculate.

Seina: if I know mom she is probably teaching squigly to control spiritual energy.

Max: yeah I think that's possible I mean she looked at us with envy and honestly I feel like an asshole for not teaching her.

Sonia: well in your defense you couldn't have known the effects of spiritual energy will have on her I mean it could have side effects.

Rebecca: yeah she is from another world after all.

Peter: speaking of words max what's squigly's world like?

Max: well the difference is that there is no knowledge of spiritual energy or lost souls but something called a skullgirl.

Bonnie: that sounds like a cartoon villain name.

Max: I know but the thing is that there is this artifact called the skull heart and if a female makes a wish they become a skullgirl.

Ken: so only female can make a wish on that thing?

Max: yup.

All males/females: that is so sexist/that sucks.

Max: anyway the power of the skull girl allows her to control the dead.

Sonia: holy shit so why don't they destroy the thing?

Max: well supposedly it can't be destroyed permanently because it needs 9 years to recover and I think it uses the souls of the dead as a fuel source.

Seina: so what happened to squigly exactly?

Max: that isn't my story to tell but let's just say that a mob just killed an innocent family.

Peter: shit

A heavy silence was hanging over the teens but that was cut off when squigly and Monica entered the room.

And all noticed how squigly's soul was more noticeable than before and max was glad that the process to awake someone from another universe spiritual energy wasn't harmful.

Monica: you all can get moving in a few you all have missions to do lucky it's just minor missions but still carefull.

Peter put a hand over Max's shoulder and he was excited.

Peter: oh hell yeah team m.p.s is back baby.

Sonia: can't believe I'm saying this but I missed that name for us.

Monica: actually squigly is coming with you three.

Squigly/m.p.s:WHAT!?

Monica: I figured that squigly might need the experience with you three.

Max: but she just woke up her spiritual energy isn't that a bad idea?

Monica: I have faith in you 4 see you.

Monica walked away leaving the four speechlessness.

Peter: she just walked off.

Max grabbed his nose and let out a sigh.

Max: come on let's get this over with.

Squigly followed max's group she was nervous at experiencing the life style of an exorcist and improved her control on her spiritual energy.
