At that moment, Jaimyn noticed 4 men enter the pub and point towards him. His fear instinctivly told him to hide under the table, but Sandra grabbed him by the shirt and they started running to the back door, only to met by a wizard, who wasn't too happy with Jaimyn.
Jaimyn waved at him trying to be nice and curtious " 'ello!", but the wizard mearly casted a fire bolt heading straight for his head. Fortunatly, Sandra had put a protection shield around both him and her, and her quickly flashed Jaimyn the evil eye.
"We don't want you fire whench! We want the boy!" This didn't settle well with Jaimyn at all, and he turned deathly pale. He turned to run away, but the other the four men were at back, ready to clobber him. He tried to back away, but he bumped into Sandra, who was sizing up her competition.
"Aw but really lads, I mean...I ain't got no abilites..seriously, I was just talkin to the lady 'ere, and you guys gotta bust up me fun..ahh that ain't right." Jaimyn choked the words out, his eyes wide with fright, he looked to Sandra, then back at the wizard in front of him. But, Sandra, seeing she will have to be quick, and deadly, she drops her cloak and immediately goes invisible. Jaimyn gulped and tried to move away when something like a wind knocked 2 of the warriors over and hit them on the head and backbone. The other man looked at Jaimyn and ran away in fright.
A smile flashed over Jaimyns face, and he thought he was in the clear but the wizard was still in front of him. He tried to talk his way out of the situation, which never really helped him in past, and wizard began to try and leech his power. Jaimyn dropped to his knees, but with a sudden "thwap" sound the wizard stopped and looked at the boy, when Sandra appeared. Pointing his finger at the wizard Jaimyn protested, "You can't be treatin' the lady like that, now listen.." just as he was about tto finish jolts of lightning exited his finger and hit the wizard in the chest. Jaimyn looked in awe at his finger, "Well why couldn't you do that before?"
He looked over to Sandra, who looked exhausted, "Well that weren't so bad were it?" The look in her eyes nearly made him fall dead to the ground, "What are you posing for? That wasn't nearly the end of it!"
He looked around and points, then hides his finger with fear, "There don't seem to be anybody 'ere any more.", then he flashed a brilliant smile, "Did you see how I zapped that 'izard?! That sure was a swell trick i did there!"
"It WOULD have been if you actually did it when you WANTED to. You are becoming a menace to society!"
He looked at her and his jaw dropped, "I wanted to!! Did you see me?!" He was becoming quite aggitated at her,"I blasted 'im!!" Then he found a stump and proceeded to sit at it, to sulk because she had hurt his feelings. "I ain't as simple as ye think I am."
Some compassion spread across her face and Sandra sat beside him, "Look... what was your name again? Zuccini? The fact that you did that shows your great magical capacity... but it was what we call a 'spillover'... meaning you need to be trained."
"Ahh it won't 'appen again. Them guys were taught a lesson, they won't follow Jaimyn Asparugus Spears again!!",he banged on his chest, feeling a little tender,"ow."
"You know what a spillover means? You might see a nightmare and zap yourself to death and not even know it."
His eyes grew wide,"Well....then what's stopping me from zapping you?!" Jaimyn then pointed his finger at her in frustration, "like, I told yas, I ain't nothin...it was just a happy coincidence that I did that. Maybe me mudder is lookin down on me, and protectin me from any danger.", he wiped a solitary tear away with a dirty hand, "I doubt it 'ough. I just a simple man...",he shook his head and put it in between his hands.
"You are a simply thickheaded! I am a mage! And I know power when i see it." Sandra shook her head at him, but she wasn't going to leave his side.
Jaimyn began to cry softly, and let her insult him, his shame over-powering him. Sandra then gently put her hand upon his shoulder and smiled.
"I am sorry... for all of this. But I can help you. I can help you be what you were born to be...do you want me to?"
He looked up at her, his youth showed in his eyes, "Want you to what?", he lowered his head again, "I ain't got no choice, I ain't got nuffin."
"You have your power. And you are damn lucky, because you found me in your path. I can help you be in control."
"In control of what? Power....nobody I know 'ad any power. I can't be a 'izard like that!", he pointed his finger in the direction of where the wizard was.
"You know me..." Sandra stated firmly, and helped him up. "Let's go to my home, we'll talk there." She looked around wearily, for any other "friends" that might be lurking about.
