A guard

Almost done with my shift.

I heard that there have been a lot illegal immigrants trying to get into the city and that for that reason the ruling house is promoting city guards to gate guards. It sure would be nice to get that position, no more tiring patrols, no more chasing petty thief’s down alleys, no more noble's acting big on the streets.

I get pulled out my thoughts because my partner smacks me on the back and points to a big group of people. He then lets out a sigh and says: “Seems like that noble brat is picking a fight with someone again, who is the lucky one?”

“Lets see”, I reply.

He then says: “Man I would sure love to arrest that little brat. Why did has dad have to someone from the one of the main houses.”

“Same here, it would brighten my week if I could throw that bastard into a cold cell for a few days.”

After I say that I start making my way trough the crowd.

As I come closer I see the noble brat and 2 of his goons picking on a black haired kid.

Suddenly my partner cries out: “Wait isn't that Peter's future son?”

Shit why did it have to be his son, Peter is a nice guy. Ahh it really drives me crazy that I can't stop this. Damn you inbred piece of shit.

I can't stand to watch this, look at that boy he is barely standing.

Suddenly I feel a gust of wind and dust blocks my vision. Right after that I hear a loud cracking noise followed up by the sound of a big impact.

After the dust fades I can see Peter’s son just casually standing there. I try to look for the noble but I can't find him. After a while I can see him a few meters away lying on the cold hard ground with blood coming from his deformed nose.

He crawls back up and starts casting a fire spell.

I look at my partner and can see a flash of fear in his eyes.

I cry out:“That bastard is going to use magic against a 4 year old we need to stop him.”

As I try to rush to Peter's son aide but my partner stops me and says to me in an angry voice:”Stop it, we don't have the authority to arrest a noble don't throw away your career, the kid will survive.”

I see the fireball flying straight at Peter's son and I can see the kid catching fire and rolling on the ground in utter agony. But that is not what happens the fireball hits Peter's son right in the chest but it seems like it can't burn his skin, his clothes are burning though.

After a few moments I can see Peter's son walking up the noble and punching him to the ground. But what kind of force is that, that noble kid got thrown backwards a few meters. I thought this ordeal was finally over but Peter's son starts walking up to the noble kid again and starts punching him repeatedly in the face.

Normally a child punching another child doesn't do that much damage but in this case the noble's face is just a pile of bleeding flesh after a few hits.

Peter's son show an evil grin and even starts humming a happy tune at the same rhythm at which he is punching the noble kid.

As I look around I can see a few adults starting to throw up.

Really what kind of monster is this kid.

After a few minutes of utter silence that is only broken by a happy tune and the sound and shattering bones Peter's son stand up smiles at the crowd and happily walks away.

At that moment I made a vow to never ever try to piss that kid off. I got a feeling if I do that then it will be the last thing ever do.

My partner walks up to the noble kid to check if he seems alive.

I follow him and when I come close I almost puke.

The thing before my eyes can't be classified as a human. Neither can the kid who did this be classified as one but that is for a whole different reason.

The worst thing is that I can a lot of other wounds on his body. I guess Peter's kid inflicted those to keep him from fainting.

What a scary kid.

No such a being can't be classified as a kid, I guess I will need to tell Peter what happened.

Luckily that kid used magic first so I don't think that his family will make a big deal of this because he survived and their kid broke on of the oldest laws of using magic in town to hurt a resident.”
