“It looks like you’re already inspired enough... Shall we start with your training now and see if that lucky charm works?” Chanyeol cut Hanbin’s dreamy gaze that was following Jinhwan out of the training grounds. Hanbin then directed his eyes back to the older, who immediately saw the hesitation in the eyes of the younger. 

 

“Like I said, don’t hesitate. We’re here to help you. The training ground is well equipped for all of our gifts.” the older encouraged the younger one by looking around. Hanbin followed Chanyeol’s gaze and saw that the other gifted has already started with their training. 

 

The twins are with Baekhyun trying to separate one’s shadow and make it move on its own. Yunhyeong was trying to redirect the light to change its course and make it physical. 

 

Donghyuk fell hard after his attempt to make himself fly. He was hurt, of course, but he still stood up and tried it all over again.

 

On the other side, Kyungsoo can be seen hitting Junhoe's head after disturbing the twins by constantly moving the land they are standing on. Hanbin couldn't help but snort at the trainer and trainee not getting along with each other.

 

He felt a cold air come from a different direction and sure enough, he saw Jiwon making the most amazing and detailed gigantic ice crystal flowers.

 

"Waaa!" Hanbin let out with an amazed face. He was surprised to see such beauty. And for someone as young as Bobby to be able to control his gift like it was nothing, he felt an urge to try as well.

 

"Amazing right? Believe it or not, they were once like you. Scared to even accept they’re different. That's why Dragon and Goddess made this place. To help Gifted people like us accept and control our Gifts in the best way possible. I say that like it’s easy but it never is. It takes time to control your Gift but whether you control it or let it control you is all up to you." 

 

Hanbin let the words of the older sink in. He can do it as well, can’t he? But what if he burns the whole place again? What if he accidentally hurt someone again? What if he hurt Jinhwan? He can't bear thinking of it.

 

Seeing that the younger is still hesitant. Chanyeol sighed and started producing fire ball in his hand, showing it to Hanbin. This caught the younger’s attention.

 

"Let’s start with producing a small bit fire. So I want you to try and do it. But for additional inspiration, lemme share a secret in controlling your Gift." Chanyeol fished for Hanbin's interest and once saw the other is interested enough, he continued. "Instead of thinking you'll destroy something, think of it as protecting someone."

 

'Protecting someone?' Hanbin thought to himself and instantly his eyes searched for a certain purple haired angel watching from the outskirts of the training grounds. He was cheering for them and when he noticed Hanbin, he waved at the guy. Hanbin unconsciously smiled. 

 

Chanyeol noticed the younger's attention focused on their little JInhwan. He couldn’t help but look at his own person to protect, who isn’t so far from him and is quite busy with his students. 

 

"So… are you all set now." Chanyeol asked, looking back at Hanbin. The younger looked back at his trainer before nodding. He took a deep breath as he tried loosening his tense muscles. He raised his hand, looking at it.

 

"Alright! First lesson. I want you to produce flames in your palm. No matter how small it is, I need you to think of it burning on your palm." And as soon as Chanyeol said that, red tongues of flame appeared in his palms. Showing it to the younger who was nodding.

 

Hanbin looked so amazed that the older had so much control of his flames. He saw his trainer’s hair resemble the appearance of the flames as his previously blonde hair is now burning bright red.

 

"You just need to concentrate your power on that specific part of your body. Imagine it there and it’ll appear where you want it to." Chanyeol explained. "Take it as a challenge to protect your new bracelet. Its something precious, right?"

 

Hanbin nodded and followed what the older Gifted instructed. He concentrated and felt his body getting warmer, he was about to panic when he heard Chanyeol again. "Concentrate Hanbin. Don't let fear take control over you! Remember, you’re protecting something important to you. You can't protect anything if you're afraid. Your flames understand what you’re thinking. It knows if you’re afraid of it."

 

And that pulled Hanbin back. He focused all his power and energy directing the warmth he is feeling towards his palm. He can feel how the heat moved from his arms down to his his hands. A spark appeared before a flash of fire appeared..

 

"Hy-hyung!!! Hyung!!! Hyung I think I’m doing it" Hanbin excitedly informed Chanyeol and like an older brother, Chanyeol smiled approvingly.

 

"Good job Hanbin! Now imagine adding more power so the flames will flow out and become stronger." He instructed, Hanbin nodded feeling inspired after having accomplished something.

 

As soon as Hanbin put more power into his body, his eyes and hair changed again to a fiery red and on his palm flames went ablaze. But another spark appeared before surprising both Hanbin and Chanyeol. The color of the flames changed into a different hue. On Hanbin's palm is blazing blue flames, dancing around with the air.

 

‘You got blue flames.’ Chanyeol whispered. 

 

He is amazed since he has never seen anyone with such a color. His eyes urgently searched for the head of the manor and as expected, he saw the Dragon standing by the balcony of the manow. The man saw everything, including the blue flames.

 

Chanyeol asked the Dragon mentally if he knows about this and he just nodded. The Dragon knew about the blue flames but it was through Bobby and Jinhwan's memory that he discovered Hanbin's special gift.

 

The older gifted chuckled, shaking his head. The kid in front of him is definitely a rare Gifted. And from the looks of it, the boy is clueless of what he has.

 

"Amazing work Hanbin. That will be all today. You can practice doing it with the other parts of your body or you can try making it bigger." Chanyeol congratulated the boy who, from the looks of it, missed most of what he said as his eyes immediately focused to a certain boy skipping back into the training grounds with some snacks.

 

"Binnie!!!!! You produced fire in your palm!!!!" Jinhwan exclaimed. "And its color blue!!!!! It's so pretty!!!!"

 

Dara, who saw it, was surprised as well but she recovered quickly and offered everyone in the fields some snacks and drinks.

 

---XXX---

 

"Ji, have you heard from Chanyeol?" Dara asked as she placed a cup of coffee to her husband’s desk. The guy looked up to him, smiling.

 

"Not just heard, my love. I saw it for myself. It's really impressive. Blue fire. The most powerful flame." Dragon shakes his head upon his realization. “Who would’ve known we’ll finally get one.”

 

Dara sat on the Dragon's lap, a throne that is rightfully hers, wrapping her arms around the Dragon's neck. "You know, your son has a knack for discovering treasures. Just like me." Dara cooed as she pecks a kiss to the leader's lips.

 

"Mmmhmm. I like the sound of that. My precious treasure hunters." Dragon agreed as his arms s to the slim waist of his wife.

 

"But I would love to hear a different sound right about now." Jiyong teasingly whispered to the older's ears. "Something more y and sultry"

 

"Ohhhh. Sounds like a challenge…" Dara smirked as her finger slowly trailed down the strong physique of her husband as she bit her lower lip.

 

"Are up for the challenge then Mrs. Kwon?"Jiyong questioned as he changed their position with Dara now in between the Dragon's sturdy body and the study table, hands anchoring her from completely falling flat on top of it. "You look appetizing this way, my Dee." 

 

Dara being extra courageous, pulled Jiyong's necktie close to her lips just inches away from each other. 

 

"My husband is one powerful gifted if not the most powerful. But I won't back out from your challenge." She smirked. And just when they were about to taste each other's lips…

 

"Apppppaaaaaa!!!!!! Junhoe is teasing me again!!!!!!" Jinhwan's complained and abruptly opened the door.

 

And on cue, a shrill of horror is heard in the entire manor alerting almost all of the Gifted, most especially Hanbin and Bobby for they know exactly who owns that voice. 

 

Urgently, the two men ran to help and possibly save Jinhwan from whoever or whatever hurt him, only to see two blushing adults and a visibly red Jinhwan.

 

Chanyeol also went to the area where he heard the scream and immediately laughed hard when he realized what had happened.

 

"Noona! Hyung! Learn to lock if your planning to play!" He made fun of the two leaders before instructing the also blushing Jiwon and Hanbin to drag Jinhwan out of the 'crime scene'.

 

"So... Aside from doing scene in front of your son. Why am I being called?" Chanyeol suddenly shifted from a carefree instructor to a serious strategist.

 

---xxx---

 

The whole day, Hanbin still cannot believe what he was able to do. Its like he is dreaming something too good to be true that it scares him. It’s making him think that there must be something more to it than just that. He went out the balcony of the manor, hoping to get some air while still thinking.

 

"Was it just a fluke?" Hanbin asked himself. 

 

"Let's try again?" And so he concentrated his power once again to his palm and as soon as he felt heat creeping slowly from his chest to his arms, he followed its path and then he realized, "I'm still wearing the bracelet!?" 

 

He immediately stopped and decided that it would be better if he removes his very special item. Once his treasured bracelet was removed, he made his power flow to his palm again but now, instead of a blue fire, red flames shoot up.

 

"Huh!? Red? I thought my flames are blue?" Hanbin wondered.

 

"Hanbin hyung! Time to eat!!!!" 

 

---xxx---

 

Hanbin arrived in the dining room with almost everyone seated. But one particular seat got his attention. The seat beside Jinhwan was shining, inviting him to go. But it seems he's not the only one gunning for it.

 

"Ohhh! Bobby hyung! Come. Let's eat now." Donghyuk invited, clasping his arm on the older who was walking straight towards the seat beside Jinhwan. However, even before Bobby can approach the seat…

 

"Habinnieeeee! Sit beside me neh!!!" Jinhwan smiled, waving at the older.

 

Hanbin can swear butterflies were fluttering in his stomach as he shyly sat beside his angel but as he was sitting down, he felt his feet turn cold and he knew who it was. Hanbin was about to confront Bobby but it seems like Jinhwan also noticed it.

 

"Jiwonie? Are you not feeling well?" Jinhwan pouted worrily. "Your power is leaking again..."

 

"Ani… Don't worry about it. You sit there and eat… Enjoy." Bobby said, his voice threatening and quite pissed off again.

 

"Urgh!!! Can we eat in peace! I'm not up to the dramatic love triangle of you three" Junhoe complained, glaring at them.

 

By the time the desert came, Jinhwan is busy telling the story of how Hanbin made blue flames over his palm. He was so proud of the older when he noticed something missing from his arm.

 

"H-Hanbinnie… you didn't like the bracelet I gave you?" Jinhwan pouted. The older immediately looked at his wrist, panic slowly consuming him. The younger looked away and noticed Bobby staring at him.

 

"Ohhh! Right! I'm sleeping with Jiwonnie today right?" Jinhwan smiled. Bobby’s eyes widened, surprised at what he heard despite the smile apparent on his face. "Neh????"

 

"WHAT!?" Hanbin asked in horror.

 

"WAEEEE!" The Dragon complained, looking at his wife who just rolled her eyes.

 

"I gave him the permission Ji." Dara explained to her husband, holding his hand and smiling.

 

"B-b-but my… my baby." whined the leader, obviously freaking out about what Dara had agreed for them to do.

 

"Your baby is already out of the table and with his future partners" Dara snickered while consoling her whining lover.

 

Hanbin on the other hand is agitated. He forgot where he put his bracelet and hearing about the news, he was feeling emotions flood into him. But first he needed to find his precious, precious bracelet. 

 

"Argh! C'mon brain! Work! Where did I put it!" Hanbin grumbled, walking back and forth by the lobby.

 

And just like timing is in his side Yunhyeong arrive with a circular item in his hand. "Were you looking for this? I found it outside by the balcony."

 

Hanbin felt his heart turn calm when he saw the bracelet on the other’s hand. He immediately thanked him and put the bracelet back on his wrist.

 

~~~ Present Time~~~

 

“I’m going in!” Hanbin exclaimed when his patience finally wore off. Just when he was about to leave the dark dome, Bobby grabbed his wrist and twisted it behind him before slamming him to wall. “I’m not letting you this up. Leave it to the ones who knows what they’re doing!”

 

“I… I found him… I found Jinhwan-hyung!”
