Chapter 10 - Chapter 10: Control of Power

Atilla's words gave İda a bit of confidence. Knowing that she wasn't alone in this complex and dangerous world was important. However, the questions in her mind remained unanswered, and she was uneasy about who Batuhan was and how he had strayed so far into darkness.

"How did you let Batuhan gain so much power?" İda asked. Her voice carried a mix of curiosity. Atilla's expression showed that the question was unexpected, but he didn't hesitate to answer.

"Batuhan was always strong. But he didn't earn that power rightfully, İda. We believed in him, trusted him. He managed to hide that he didn't have his own powers. But over time, we realized that Batuhan lived only for himself and tried to gain strength by stealing the abilities of others. That's when things changed."

Eymen intervened, "Batuhan's ability to steal powers is very dangerous. When we faced him, most of us nearly lost our own powers. We barely escaped. That's why the best way to deal with him is to move together. Facing him alone is almost impossible."

Despite the new information, İda still felt scared. She wasn't aware of her own powers, let alone whether she could control them. But Atilla, Eymen, and Aras's support gave her some confidence. "Okay, then what do I need to do? How can I control my powers?"

Atilla paused for a moment before speaking decisively. "First, we need to fully understand what your abilities are. What happened last night was a sign. There's a darkness inside you, and we need to understand it. Uncontrolled power can be dangerous. The first step is to stay calm and know yourself."

Eymen stepped in, "We'll guide you. Each of us has different abilities, and over time, we'll help you discover your own. But this process requires patience. You need to trust yourself and us."

İda nodded determinedly. With their support, she was ready to learn about her powers and fight to stop Batuhan. But she also knew how dangerous this path could be. The darkness and anger inside her could lead her in a different direction.

Atilla took a deep breath and looked around. "You know this isn't something we can do at school, right? We need to go to a safer place."

Eymen quietly agreed with Atilla. "Yes, this place isn't suitable. We're under Batuhan's watch, and he could appear at any moment."

Aras, with a slight smile, added, "Don't worry. This isn't a place where his abilities can fully operate. But still, we need to go somewhere more suitable."

İda hesitated for a moment. "So, where will we go?"

Atilla looked at her seriously and said, "To a safe place. A place under our control."

Eymen nodded and gave İda a reassuring look. "There, we'll show you everything. You'll learn how to control your powers. And how to deal with Batuhan…"

İda took a deep breath, ready to embark on this dark and unknown journey. But she also had to suppress the fear inside her. She had a long way to go to stop Batuhan, and she had to rely not only on her power but also on the support of Atilla and his friends.

"Alright," İda said, with determination in her eyes. "I'll come with you. I'm ready."

Atilla nodded with a slight smile. "Then let's start right away."

Seeing the determination in Atilla's eyes, İda took a deep breath. The seriousness of the situation filled her with fear but also a desire to fight. Atilla, Eymen, and Aras would help her, but she knew how dangerous this path was.

"Atilla," İda said, her voice trembling slightly. "How will we start? How will I control my powers?"

Atilla looked at İda patiently and answered, "First, you need to learn to stay calm. Your power is connected to your emotions. The more intense your emotions are, the harder it will be to control them. We will learn to balance that."

Eymen, with a slight smile, intervened. "It sounds simple, but it's actually hard. It took us a long time to learn this."

Aras silently nodded. "But you can do it, İda. You just need to be patient."

İda felt like she was stepping into a new world. Just a few days ago, she was living an ordinary life, but now she found herself among people with special abilities. Yet, the fear and uncertainty inside her hadn't gone away.

"Atilla," İda asked, hesitating for a moment. "Is Batuhan really that dangerous? I mean... can we stop him?"

Atilla looked into İda's eyes with determination. "Yes, he's dangerous. But we can stop him. However, we can't do it alone. We need to be together. That's why it's important for you to control your powers."

İda nodded, trying to digest Atilla's words. Meanwhile, Eymen and Aras exchanged glances. Aras approached İda quietly and began speaking in a calm voice.

"There's something else, İda. To learn to control your powers, you need to master not just your emotions but also focus. You need to clear your mind and know how to direct your energy."

İda listened carefully to Aras's words. Although this new information slightly alleviated her confusion, it didn't fully answer her questions. Still, she was determined. She would do whatever it took to stop Batuhan and stand against him on this dark path.

"Okay," İda said, with a hint of courage in her eyes. "What do I need to do? Where do we start?"

Atilla nodded with a slight smile at İda. "First, we need to understand exactly what your power is. Do you remember the uncontrolled moment you experienced last night?"

İda took a deep breath and nodded. "Yes. It was like... I lost control of everything for a moment. There was a power inside me, but I didn't know what it was. Then... suddenly, I harmed the trees."

Atilla nodded thoughtfully. "It seems your power is triggered by your anger. But you need to learn to control it. It will take some time, but we'll help you."

Atilla noticed İda's impatience to control her powers but signaled her to stay calm. "We can't do this at school," he said seriously. "Using our powers here would draw too much attention and put us in danger. We have to wait."

İda's disappointment showed on her face. She was eager to understand her uncontrollable powers as soon as possible. "Then when?" she asked. "How much longer will we wait?"

Eymen intervened in a calming tone. "You need to be patient. After school, we'll practice in a safe place, away from prying eyes. This is important not just for your safety but for all of us."

Aras smiled slightly at İda and spoke. "Just a few hours. After classes, we'll take you to a hidden place. We can work there."

İda nodded in agreement. Despite the confusion and urgency inside her, she decided to listen to them. Rushing to control her powers could put them all in danger.

The rest of the school day was tough for İda. Her thoughts constantly drifted to her powers and the upcoming practice. She struggled to concentrate in class; her eyes frequently checked the clock. She wanted time to pass quickly, eager to understand herself and take control.

Finally, when classes ended, Atilla, Eymen, and Aras were waiting for her outside the school. They quietly moved away from the city center, heading toward a wooded area a bit outside the city. They needed to find an isolated spot where no one could see them. When they arrived, they found a quiet and peaceful clearing in the forest.

"Alright," Atilla said, taking a deep breath. "This place is safe. Now it's time to focus, İda."

Eymen and Aras quietly stepped aside. İda stood in the center, taking a deep breath and trying to feel the power within her. She had to learn to control it. Guided by Atilla, she needed to understand how to direct her power without releasing it uncontrollably.

"First, stay calm," Atilla said, carefully watching İda. "Control your emotions. Understand what you feel and think. Your power is connected to your emotions, so you need to be balanced."

İda took a deep breath and closed her eyes. She felt an intense wave of energy inside her, but this time, instead of panicking, she tried to understand it.
