Where's the Water?

I couldn't relax, couldn't let my mind drift and for a solution to present itself.

I needed information, something to go on. A way to retrieve the ashes of Mikalus before he was dragged away from whatever corner of hell he currently resided in. If not, the world would soon be a very different place.

As I paced, getting dizzy with the heat, a sudden, some would say rare, insight came to me. The reason why I was here. I was afraid. I was afraid to be alone, to deal with this, so I'd sought sanctuary. Safety in numbers. Knowing nobody would try anything here, in a place surrounded by wizards and strictly off-limits for violence within the community.

Other magic users knew exactly what the place was, those simply criminals thought it a weird private club for dodgy looking blokes with beards that needed a good going over with a hedge trimmer and an update to their wardrobe.

I was hiding.

Coward.

The words reverberated around my skull, taunting me, yelling, until I couldn't focus or think of anything at all. I ambled over to the pool and slumped, hardly aware that my feet were submerged over the side.

I was sweating even more than I should have been. My body felt like every drop of moisture had been sucked out of me and I was dessicated, all dried up. Ash, just like vampire number one. I shook to clear my mind, knowing I was just tired from the craziness, and my lethargy and lack of magic was having a very adverse effect on my focus. For with magic came the ability to consider its implications, how it could help you, and more than anything that was the mistress I sought.

Slowly, everything faded away, and I pictured myself in my room at home. Naked, silent, connected to the no-state, the non-being. Emptiness and power, forces so magnificent they defied description, filtering into me, making me whole and enabling this tiny, puny human to become something more than he maybe should. Everything muted down to such a low level that the magic we think of as powerful is little but a pathetic spark of base energy once it's gone through the leveling effects of such a frail body.

I sat like that for maybe an hour or longer, just absorbing the power, everything joining back up inside me like one of those connect-the-dots picture books. I sweated until I felt clean inside and out, and I was resolute. Mikalus had to be destroyed once and for all. I had to stop the vampires before they resurrected him.

I smiled at my own panic, my own fear. This wasn't who I was. I was The Hat and I demanded respect.

The waves of the pool lapped against my legs, washing over my thighs and scalding them, but I didn't mind, was used to it now. They weren't normally this strong, though. Must mean those in the pool were moving about and causing ripples. Then a large wave splashed right up to my chest and I opened my eyes as the shouts and screams began.
