Pookie was still wiggling back and forth on the floor as the dark void that Sora walked out from was swallowed by the shadows behind her. Sora now became a vampire using the skill ‘ Manifest former life's She was still unsure how this skill really worked, though. ‘was it just a transformation?’

She still did not know how it was activated or was triggered in the first place.

”This seemed to be trigger by an intense hatred that does not sound right, though.” Sora looked around, looking for a clue as to what happened, but it just seemed to happen at random. Sora started to suspect going off the little information she had as this time as it was the first time she was now in control of whatever she was now, unlike the previous time in the forest. This skill was activated during times of need, like where she woke up to the dead wolf that attacked her. Sora continued to stand there and began to pull up her stat card showing her new set of skills.

: Frost bolt(V), shadow-stalker(IV), draining-touch (IV), frenzy, regenerate (II).:

Then besides them showed Sora’s original skills.

: Manifest former life’s, Plunderer, Extravagant, fools luck, silver tongue, never surrender Transmutate (II) Improvise (I):

Sora could now see looking at her stat card she was acquiring skills like the magical text she sent here as a girl told her she would? Him? She had a grin on her face; even though she was in an awful place, she was excited to see at least one of her skills had some cool side-effect as she said to herself, “Wow, these are some real skills, unlike the dumb ones I had before I transformed into this person what do some of them even do.”

Walking over towards Pookie, Sora knew exactly what that thing was now. For some odd reason, she had new memories of being in a world similar to this one with bats like that as familiars for vampires and other dark spirits, which she found was, “Strange, I feel like I used to own one of these in the past and called it Pookie,” Sora said to herself while staring at the creature as she continued to inspect her stat card. Reading the part about “Memories.” Cutting the ropes with her nails to allow the bat to move, she concentrated on using magic. “Magic activate?”Sora said while she reached her hand forward in a closed fist, and when she opened it stretching her handout in an open palm. Nothing happened, puzzled she thought, ‘Perhaps it's called upon by name what was it called again? Frost bolt?’

Now the surrounding air got thin and as cold as ice as Sora’s red eyes glowed in the dark, and the air swirled around her open palm. Slowly little droplets of mouldy water froze a solid green as the walls slowly started to form frost and become encased in ice crystals. The ice bolt continued to grow from a 1 cm wide spike to a 3cm to a 5cm turning to Pookie Sora cried, “Pookie, how do I shoot this Pookie!”

As the Ice spike continued to grow, it finally stopped around a dimension of 5 inches wide and 9 inches long. It was no longer a small bolt, but a giant bolt of ice as everything around Sora froze as she held onto it. Waving her hand back and forth, the ice remained in her palm, “How do I?” Sora continued to cry as she finally repeated the spells name, “Ice-bolt,” flying forth now as the air shot back, kicking dust, dirt, and other small debris up the spell shot forward, splitting the chain ball holding the creature Pookie down. Next, glancing over towards the gate Sora had an Idea. “I wonder, wait here, Pookie, lick your lips and act hungry.”

Now Sora watched as the walls melted again and the mouldy water formed where the Ice bolt was and figuring out how to use her skills, she used ‘Shadow stalker and hid in the shadows as the guards came to investigate all the racket.

When they got back to the cell door, looking in the cell, Sora was gone. All that remained was Pookie, and it was licking its lips as the guard quickly ran over to get the key to open the cell as the other one Sora could see cover its mouth.

“Did they think Pookie ate me?” Sora said to herself as she hid in the shadows. When the other guard came back with the cells doors keys, they opened them, and as they entered the cell, Sora leapt out from the shadows, attacking them, screaming, “Arghhh!”
