29 Cousin's Anger

``So, you are telling me that the next step in the Mana Control Training is to inscribe formations on the Mana Core?!'' Ron was in shock at Jack's statement. Mostly because, the process of creating the Mana Core was a very long and tiring one. They had to gather all the Liquid Mana in their body before condensing it into a small ball and use their Soul Energy to change its state from liquid to solid. It had taken them almost all of their holidays to complete the process, the longest time they had spent on training. ``You don't have to worry. The formations we will inscribe on our Core will be tailored to our bodies. Look, I wouldn't tell you to do anything that I wouldn't do.'' Harry came up behind Jack and smacked him in the back of his head, ``You idiot, Ron was just shocked that this was the idea that you came up with. I mean, we all trust you with our lives. You have helped us achieve more in life than anyone else ever could and most importantly, you are our friend and that's all the reason we need.'' Everyone in the room nodded in agreement and Neville excitedly asked Jack about the process, So, how are we going to figure out the suitable formations? I have a few ideas that might help you out.''

The last few days of the holidays were spent in the subspace and the group finally came up with a way to determine a suitable formation for themselves and others. ``man! That took so much longer than expected!'' if anyone outside had heard Dean's words, they would have boiled with anger at the audacity of this child. The device they had created scanned the body of the target and used its Phantom as a basis to search its database to find a suitable formation for them. it would have literally taken anyone else tens of years to even come up with a sketch much less make the device itself. ``Ok! we have tested to make sure that the formations are correctly placed.'' Padma and Parvati checked the device and Jack put it on his wrist while Theo kept Recovery Potions at arm's length in case they needed it. ``Bang!'' Jack poured in Mana into the device and it flashed with a bright light and a loud sound before calming down. When the device was at full capacity, Jack pointed the device at Harry and the device displayed a Holographic Screen that showed, ` Attribute - Death! Suitable Formations – Eighteen Layers of Hell, Death God's Domain, Life and Death Wheel.' ``Oh My God! It freaking works, it works!'' Ron's excited yell woke everyone up from their stupor and they congratulated Harry before telling him to move, so they can know their formations.

``Me next!'' Daphne walked up and stood in front of Jack and waited for the device to scan him. Once again the device scanned the target before displaying a Holographic Screen, ` Attribute – Poison, Regeneration! Suitable Formations – Hydra's Poison Domain, Immortal's Body, Hydra's Armour' . After Daphne everyone came over and checked their attributes and formations and finally it was Jack's turn and the device scanned him and displayed the results on the Holographic Screen, `Attribute – All! Chaotic Source Formation!' everyone was surprised at the results. The room erupted in cheers and congratulations, ``Wow, come on man, at least give us a chance to surpass you!'' ``it's alright Ron, he needs all the help he can!'' Jack's friends didn't take long to bring Jack back to earth and humble him. But he was thankful for friends like them and just smiled at them. The group wanted to continue with their training, they were having way too much fun and wanted to advance even further but the holidays were over and it was almost time to go back to Hogwarts.

``Man! I can't believe we are out of time!'' Dean was hit in the back of his head by his parents and the rest of them stopped their mouths from uttering the same words as their friend. ``Keep quiet! You had plenty of time for training and working. Now it's time for you to have some fun!'' Dean's dad and the rest of the parents sighed internally. Most kids felt the studies they had to so at Hogwarts were too much but their kids, `Sigh!' ``Let's go, we have to buy your supplies from Diagon Alley Mall, we almost forgot to buy any of your stuff. It's lucky they send the parents the letter and not the kids themselves.'' Jack giggled at his mother's words and followed her into the Chimney to go to the British Gathering place for Wizards and Witches, Diagon Alley! Boom! The green flames covered the Williams Family and thye vanished from the eyes of the others and appeared at the Mall's entrance where, Fireplaces were lined up for the convenience of the customers. ``Well, Well, Well! it's seems like our genius cousin finally has time to leave his genius friends and come outside of his lab! Humph!'' Jack looked at his cousin Olivia with a smile that slowly vanished looking at the sad look on his cousin's faces. Jay didn't even look at him or even greet him and just talked to his parents before leaving with Olivia. ``Jay! Olivia!'' Jack shouted at his cousin's back but they didn't stop. Then he remembered the fool proof way to dissipate their anger, ``Big Brother Jay! Big Sis Olivia! please forgive me!''

Jack had used his mental talent,Divided Mind and come up with a speech to beg for his cousin's forgiveness in case that didn't work but he didn't need it. ``You idiot! The next time you forget to even write a letter to us, don't bother showing up.'' Olivia smacked his head hard and Jay just nodded his head to her statement. Jack nodded his head like a chicken and hurriedly spoke, ``I am sorry for forgetting to invite you but this is a great time to do so. I would formally like to invite you two on behalf of me and my friends to visit our lab.'' Jack would realise in the near future what a terrible mistake he had made by doing so. After that small fiasco, Jack and friends made their way to the mall and spent their time enjoying the trip while their parents went and bought their School Supplies. When the rest of the group came and met up with JAck's cousins, they all realised that they should apologise to Jay and Olivia, if they wanted to avoid suffering and keep the relations they had built during the previous year. When the group finished they met up with their parents and Jack noticedthat Ron's sister Ginny had now joined them and was waiting to get her books.
