"Reward? I get a reward!? OH! That is awesome! I fucking love you Ice! I knew you wouldn't be such an ice queen and just have a training area." I was smiling widely and practically bouncing in place waiting for Miyagi to show me my prize.

But my excitement died due to what happened next. He grinned widely.

"You seem to misunderstand something Mistress. Your reward isn't some item or ability. Nononono your prize is yourrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr- drum roll please!"

Drums actually started pounding in the background. I was really starting to hate this place.

"- Training! Thats right you prize is all the training you just went through!" His grin now looked like the personification of evil.

"YOU SONOFABIT-

He waved his hand and cut me off by sealing my mouth shut.

This is new. Did that old green wrinkly fucker have the ability to do this the entire time? I stared at the fucker with slightly less hate than before I had to add a little bit of fear just for good measure.

"My mother was a wonderful woman thank you very much. Now as I was saying your reward is your training but I want you to think about something during all that training what really improved besides your skill and knowledge?"

I blanked for a moment at his words. I never really thought about it but.....Nothing....Besides my skills and knowledge, I gained nothing! I mean disregarding choosing Ice as my main element and gaining far more strength over ice than before my physical abilities didn't increase by even the slightest amount! Which should be impossible! If I only count my thief training I used steal thousands maybe even tens of thousands of times! That alone should've given me some type of boost!

I couldn't speak so I tried to glare my thoughts at Miyagi. He just laughed and started talking again.

"I see you've finally got it. I mean honestly Mistress, in this new form of yourself you are smart enough to memorize an entire library full of knowledge in one go yet couldn't even figure out you weren't getting stronger. Tsk.Tsk.Tsk. I weep for your future." Despite his words his smile remained the smug prick.

My small amount of fear turned back into hate.

"Well I guess I should tell you the reason for that. Magic. See easy to explain."

At this point I was trying to kill him with my eyes hoping for some badass power of death sight to emerge. I have tried to hurt him several times throughout the training but nothing ever worked. The fucker literally ate my black flames and asked for more!

"My my Mistress that is one hurtful look. You wound this faithful servant!"

I am pretty sure at that point I was turning purple with rage and blood was pouring from my nose.

Eventually, he burst out laughing and started talking again. "Oh this is sooooooo much fun Mistress I sincerely hope you never reach your previous level otherwise I won't be able to have these moments anymore. Anyway what I said was somewhat correct. Magic is the reason you weren't getting stronger. You see Mistress had an issue with disciples leaving mid training when they felt they had improved enough to accomplish whatever goal they had in coming in the first place. This annoyed Mistress so much that she changed the training. If a person leaves early all his memories are wiped. To stop the increase in skill. Also unless one completes the training they will gain no physical improvements at all. The areas are spelled to literally "steal" all that power until one completes all of their designated training. And this here Mistress is all that power."

In his hand was a misty orb about the size of a golfball. Honestly I wasn't impressed. That is until in his other hand a helmet appeared.

"Now you have two choices and you must tell me verbally what it is you want. A power boost or a VR helmet from 100yrs into the future."

I snorted internally the choice was obvious. Afterall my common sense was beaten into a coma long ago by my inner nerd.

I pointed at the helmet.

"I am pretty sure I said verbally Mistress."

My face fell.

You bastard! One day you will pay! I will make you watch as I fuck your mom in the ass! (Providing shes hot otherwise I will find someone else to seduce her)This was a vow I planned on keeping to the end of time.

"Oh well it seems I just have to give you your power." He started snickering as the orb floated towards me.

I let the orb float into my hand and looked at it curiously. I was trying to figure out how it worked. As if reading my mind Miyagi answered.

"You've got to eat it Mistress."

I stared at him with an annoyed looked and pointed at my mouth.

"Oh yes yes forgot about that but remember Mistress it's quite easy to do so again."

I watch hatefully as he waved his hand. I shoved the stupid orb in my mouth and shed a tear at the helmet still in Miyagi's hand. The second I closed my mouth around the orb I felt a huge wave of energy pour through my body and it hurt like hell. I could feel the energy piercing every inch of my body like tiny little barbed needles ripping into me. The pain got so bad I blacked out for a second but it was so intense I woke up almost immediately.

"Oh right forgot yea see the orb is full of all of your experiences which happens to include the pain as well, don't worry you won't die....Probably."

I focused all of my hate on his voice and eventually managed to block out some of the pain. After what seemed like an eternity the pain finally subsided and I felt power flowing through me like never before.

I looked over my body with my body control and was astounded.

"So this is the strength of a demi-god. Gotta say not bad. Still....Can we talk about the helmet?" I looked up in hope at Miyagi.

"Nope."

"I hate you."

"I love you too Mistress."

"*Sigh* All of my hate Miyagi all of my hate."

"You might want to save some of that hate or when you get home."

"Wait what?"

He waved his hand and I felt something pull me. The last this I saw was him crushing the vr helmet and a small part of my heart. I noticed that I arrived in my living room and took a look around. From what I could tell everything important was okay.

"Xbox check. Computer check. Tv check. Microwave check. Well that takes care of the essentials, I wonder what Miyagi meant?"

I decided not to read into it. I went into my kitchen, started making some bacon wrapped cheese fries, and started humming a tune.

..........

"WAIT A MINUTE!" I stopped what I was doing and looked around one more time.

"Ciar! Shit! Alright how did that book say to speak telepathically to a bonded individual? Right uh sense your bond put all your focus into it. Picture the person and speak from the heart. "

"Ok testing testing. Is this thing on? Ciar can you hear me?"

"Master!?"

"Whew holy shit Ciar ya scared me. Where you at pup?"

"Mas....ter help.....sma.......nis man.....ack........nobyl"

"Uh pup your kinda breaking up didn't know that was possible with telepathy but okay. I swear to goddess if I get George Takei on the line Ima be pissed."

...........

"Ciar? Ciaaaaarrrrrr?"

"Ok not good."

One if the other tings I learned from that library in my training was I can sense the direction that the person is in. So I suited up and headed out. Unfortunately it just gives a direction and not an actual location so I just had to keep following one way.

On my way I started calling my family and Cindy to see if they knew where Ciar was but nobody was picking up. Im gone for a day and a half and my girl goes missing and nobody picks up their phones? I know my mother she would always keep her phone on her in case my brothers or I called.

I ended up giving my dad a call and he said mom went out of town or business. Which I know is total crap because I now know what she is. Then again it could be Laverna business.

"ARRRRGGHHHH WHERE THE FUCK IS MY PUP!?" I shouted out loud in anger. I was pretty loud so I looked around to see if anyone heard me out off reflex. I didn't see anyone then again I hadn't seen anyone for a while.

"Why do I get the feeling I should've stayed home?" I landed on a building and started looking around with aura and x-ray vision. I still couldn't find anyone.

"What the hell?"

"Rogue you are charged with tampering with the space-time continuum and are hereby sentenced to maximum security prison until your execution!"

I turned and saw a shit ton of supers materialize behind me. Mega stood at the front of the group looking a little pissed off.

"I finally remembered what happened all those years ago kid. Now it's time for you to pay for your crimes you damn terrorist!" Mega roared at me.

I ignored him and looked for Mystic. "Let me guess city is under one ridiculous sized spell?"

She just glared back at me but from the way her aura flared I took it as a yes. How she managed to get me in a spell without me knowing is a question for later though.

"Look I don't know what crawled up your ass today but I got something important going on right now so if you could fuck off that would be great."

"Kid it's best you come in you have no chance against fifty of the worlds top supers." Tech walks forward and says.

"Honestly I really want to prove you wrong on that but someone important to me is missing and needs my help so Ima just go." I turned to leave and am greeted with the three fastest speedsters on the planet.

Now I am fast but there is a reason for the class based system according to a book supers are humans given demi-god class powers. If they were to raise themselves to the demi-god class even just in the beginning their abilities would be on par with a peak demi-god in the aspect that they had. The book goes on to say that the way this is done is fair because how would a person who only has the ability to use fire reach demi-god? The answer is simple apparently all they have to do is train their power to a much higher realm. Which is annoying because I can't do that. So while I am fast these guys are still ridiculously fast.

I stood there staring at Jenny Jet, Bolt, and Sound. "Really? You guys really wana fuck with me right now?" My voice was growing colder by the second, the roof of the building was freezing around me. The fact that it was winter right now means my ice powers were that much stronger.

Their answer was to charge at me.

"Bad mistake."

I sent a pulse of out of my body freezing the three inches from me. I may not be as fast but I am still already at the demi-god level. My eyesight can easily follow them. I turned back to the group behind me.

"If that's all I am going to leave now."

In the next second Tempest a guy who controls thunder and is a speedster launched a bolt of lightning at me. I just stood there and took it. I gave him an amused look. At that second though I felt a hand on my shoulder. I turned and saw a now thawed Jenny Jet throwing a lighting fast punch towards my face.
