"Hello kid. Good job hanging in there, and also for saving the town.", the person said, "You must be Poiyon. Anyway, time to run."
He jumps on me, and I am just pulled into an absolute darkness. I can feel him holding me, but still kind of scared. I can see football sized blasts of light here and there. Those must be the attacks from other folks, that's why he is making sure to evade them. I didn't know that light magic can penetrate the shadow realm. I pop out from the shadow, somewhere far outside on the other side of Charville, the city under siege.
"Hope the journey wasn't too bad. Can't imagine the husband doing it smoothly."
I hear a familiar voice. "Rhaela! What are you doing here?" I say, with tears in my eyes, "I thought they killed you."
"I'm not that easy to kill Poiyon", winks Rhaela. She had been like my elder sister. She used to live next door and taught me all sorts of things.
"Eheh I'm trying to improve.", says the Night clan guy, "Sorry for the long journey pal. The thing is, if I take anyone inside the shadow realm, who doesn't know dark magic, I can bring them back only by exiting from the shadow of a Morning clan person. Anyway nice to meet you, I'm Shiva."
"Hello Shiva, thank you for saving me back there. I'm so sorry for taking you guys to be evil.", I say, "Looks like our clan is the evil one. I have just been fed lies, all my life."
"All the clans are grey, pal.", Shiva says, "And my clan is also not totally guilt free. They are laying a siege on this city after all. All these clan heads are powerful wizards and they are all extremely dangerous."
"Charville is a city of ordinary non-mages. They use coal for energy, and have recently started utilizing steam to build these complex machines, which don't require any magic. I don't know how they do it, but they call it science.", says Shiva, "I'm almost convinced that there is a collaboration between our clan heads to eliminate this technological advancement, as it has the potential to topple the warm chairs on which these people have been sitting for hundreds of years."
"Enough talking. Ponyon's wound is bleeding. Let me heal you." Rhaela says. She starts the healing light magic on my leg.
"It's okay, more importantly we need to evacuate the citizens!", I say, "The unit there might obliterate the city at any moment!"
"Oh don't worry about that. We have already evacuated the citizens." Says Rhaela.
Suddenly I feel some tiny hands on my hair. I look up and and see a floating baby, maybe 2-3 years old. And then he just vanishes, and appears in front of Rhaela.

"Mama, who's he?" he says to her, pointing towards me.
"He is Poiyon, Luna. He's my friend. Be good to him okay?"
The baby just looks at me excitedly, and vanishes. And then reappears in front of me.
"Hello Pon.... Pon. I helped Mama and papa. In zippizapping people.", says the baby, "I am a good boy. Will you be my friend?". He just vanishes and reappears here and there while talking.
"We think he is able to teleport by somehow creating a combination of black hole and white hole.", Shiva says, "Combination of light and dark magic, you see. He calls it zippizapping. Or it might just be another magic altogether."
"That's very interesting!" I say, "But how does he float though?"
"That I am not sure. Never studied that much magic.", Says Shiva, as he catches his playing child. "How do you do that huh?"
The baby is just looking at his dad, initially confused and then just forgot the question. Didn't understand it, so didn't answer it. He is now just playing with his dad's face.
"Maybe those science folks could be able to answer it.", I speak to myself.
