Luis woke up drowsy to a small Phoenix feather tapping on his face.
Now that the Phoenix clan was in the Xoliti clan city, with barriers surrounding the city. Phoenix clan members could use their blessings again. Just not on a large scale or any combat ones. This was a rule that was true in any major city in the world.
The feather that was stabbling Luis slightly at his forehead from its pointy part was a feather conjured by his mother. The feather would also rub its soft part at the soles of Luis feet, it would do whatever needed to wake Luis up.
It was made from a blessing that is different from Phoenix wings.
The *Will of Fire* blessing was incorporated with the Phoenix wings blessing.
Will of Fire was a simple blessing, it could make any Phoenix clan blessing, whether it be Phoenix wing feathers, fire spears, or small flames, have their own autonomous command. Something they had to follow. The command would be followed until the aura embedded on the object disappeared but it could only be used on a blessing given by the Phoenix.
And the feather bugging Luis was one such feather. Its job was to keep annoying Luis until he woke up, brushed his teeth, and sat at the dinner table.
Rolling on the bed, Luis covered his face internally screaming 'Whyyyyyyyyy let me sleepp!!!!' After another five minutes of this with Luis not being able to go back to sleep, Luis got up from his bed.
Sitting up straight, Luis really wanted to grab the feather and just crush it, but the last time he had done this, his mother had just sent three more; he couldn't even hold it to stop it, if the feather stopped moving for some time because of Luis, his mom would judt send three more.
Luis sighed, getting up 'Why can't it stop when I'm trying to change clothes' Luis sighed after thinking that.
Luis headed to the bathroom after leaving his room.
The bathroom was right in front of his room. Uncle Raien had two guest bathrooms in his house. One was used by his parents and the other by Luis and his siblings.
On his way to the bathroom, he had seen his cousin Emberlyn walk by. She had two feathers following her, annoying her. Apparently she had become too used to one feather; she somehow slept through it when it was just one, this was what Uncle Raien had said.
But, she didn't even look bothered by two feathers as she walked by, yawning while responding to Luis's good morning.
Walking into the bathroom, Luis could see Lira and Kael standing on stools brushing their teeth's very visibly annoyed.
Luis chuckled every day seeing them. Since they looked more annoyed by the feathers than him, especially since either Lira or Kael would have three or sometimes even more on them. Clearly, they hadn't understood their mother enough yet. It was always a great start to the day.
As Luis entered the bathroom, spacious enough to fit many people.
Luis chuckled out loud and upon hearing Luis's chuckle both Lira and Kael turned around with hateful gazes.
Kael spoke first, "Stop laughing every day! There's a feather on you as well, why do you laugh like it's only us suffering?"
Luis just laughed and smirked at Kael and moved in the middle Lira and Kael, grabbing his toothbrush since three people could easily fit in front of the sink, especially since Kael and Lira were small.
Lira didn't speak but just kept staring in annoyance at Luis through the mirror for not being bothered as much by the feathers. Looking at him, an idea started to form in her head. 'If I grab his feather and crush it will mine increase or his' she thought with a creepy smile slowly forming on her face.
Luis noticing this raised an eyebrow while looking at her because she was smiling creepily while looking at him through the mirror.
Still half asleep, Luis realised too late what Lira had done. She grabbed the feather on his face after slightly jumping from the stool. Luis looked at her with disbelief, with the toothbrush in his mouth.
Not even seconds later, as Luis just stared, three more feathers came through the edges of the bathroom door, harassing him.
Luis thought it couldn't get worse, but as soon as the three more feathers came, Kael spat out all the water out of his mouth onto Luis, whom he was staring at because of what Lira did. Worse, it was toothpaste mixed with water. Some also spashed on Lira, but Kael was mostly looking at Luis and laughing while clutching his stomach.
The laughter caused water to be spat at him. Luis didn't even bother getting the water off his face. A fuse had been lit inside him.
Soon, chaos erupted after that, with feathers flying in as they all kept grabbing each other. Three feathers for every one grabbed.
The chaos happened for around thirty seconds before Elena slammed open the door because of how many of her feathers were being activated.
She screamed at the top of her lungs, "WHAT ARE YOU DOING!"
Opening the door, her anger rose even more. Seeing both Luis and Kael fully drenched in water. Lira was also drenched, but not as much. All three of them, though, had their hands full with feathers and their were dozens more surrounding each of them.
They all stared in horror at their mother because they just realized what they were doing, and it had been a long time since they had seen her this mad.
All of them gulped at once, seeing the seriousness on their mother's face.
"DO YOU ALL THINK THIS IS FUNNY?"
They all stood there, their heads facing towards the floor, as they faced the fury of their mother for the next few minutes.
Emberlyn soon joined them as well in being scolded by Elena because she could not resist laughing at what happened from outside the doorway.
