Amy waved her hand as she walked inside the house. Greeting everyone and asking how there were feeling. Gabriel next to Amy tried to observe the house and noted that house had only someone at living room watching TV and an another one making food.
"Hey, where's Jack?" Amy asked and Lucy turned and responded the way July had hoped for.
July tried to explain that the ring must have been made Jack newborn in her stomach, which sent shivers down Amy's neck. Amy tried to act cool as she clearly was too late and then turned her head now older July. Asking if she responded to Amy's name.
"Hi Amy, my sis told me that you went somewhere. I've been watching TV whole day here." July responded while nervously sweating.
July knew that this was the moment she had to act. The moment the black dressed lady next to Amy turns their back on her. She have to lunge and steal as much age as possible in order to turn them baby. It had to be done. The big problem was that she had no idea how old the lady was. She looked in somewhat twenty five, but at the same time she could be as old as Amy, but she wasn't sure at all. Was forty too much to take and was thirty too little. Thirty five might still leave her as toddler. The pressure was gathering.
"Are you feeling okay?" Amy asked as she suddenly had approached close to July.
The lady in black dress was their back turned on July.
Then. She pushed her palm into Amy's chest and thought of stealing 21 years from her and with same breath with a long arch jumped on top of the black dressed lady. She wasn't sure what age she would going to steal, but thought of the age forty two.
Both Amy and Gabriel were now in floor in under July in diapers. Gabriel in matte black colored one and Amy in whities. July could see how Gabriel was still responding like an adult while Amy was acting like normal baby.
'What is this weird sensation.' July gasped as she sat back in the sofa and watched how the two babies were ogling her.
'You have grown a little more, excellent." The voice echoed in the room as the whole world got tinted in gray. "I can finally manifest a small part of myself so we can have a little chat."
"Who are you?" July shouted.
"Oh my, silly old me forgot to tell my name to you. It's Aeris." The voice replied as she manifested herself in the living room in front of July with small shimmer accompaning her. "It had been a century or two the last time I visited this plane. Trapped inside that small ring like a genie inside a lamp. With your and your family's help I could free myself from there and become a living god amongs the men."
"A-ha? You mean you are like one of the pantheons from the ... umm ... the ancient tales from Europe and you need my help to get your body back by stealing some time of random bodies." July said.
"Actually from here you are free to do anything as my avatar. I'm just happy to talk with someone." Aeris smirked. "The more time you gather the better your powers get. I haven't been this close in the longest time so I don't think couple of years here and there bothers me at all."
"You serious?" July asked confused.
"Yes. One hundred percent serious." Aeris replied. "The next power I'm gifting you is 'age redistribution'. You can rearrange individual's age as you please without stealing it. It will aid you on getting more power to me."
"How about that one?" July said as she pointed her finger at Gabriel. "Why do I know her name and why is she still aware despite I turned her into baby."
"Ah, the witches. Funny that they still do exists. There was this one time I had to avoid this lady name Circe and she was very-" Aeris begun to rant and completely forgot her situation. "A-hem, but if she really bugs you just use your redistribution power and link her with- umm... her."
Aeris pointed Lucy who was already pregnant with Jack.
"You should have 10 feet range by now with amount of time stolen, so you can just point two individuals and link their lives together." Aeris explained. "But sadly, my powers are at the limit."
And with a blink of an eye. Aeris was gone and the time resumed normally. July was a little bit baffled by this, but ...
