Dust was everywhere. Vick couldn't see. His ears were ringing. "Sarah! Leo! Anyone!" he called out. No reply, except a sound that chilled his nerves to hear. A low metallic grinding sound." No not grinding that's a growl. There's only one thing big enough to make a sound like that. A TITAN!"
he thought frantically" Whats a titan doing here? How it get so close? Where's Sarah?"
The dust had cleared slightly to see a very large figure. Similar looking to a gargoyle, this Titan had a silver shine to its skin and golden-red lines were coursing through it. It was staging at something in the distance. It roared. Vick didn't care about this 50-meter monstrosity in front of him. What he did care about was a body that looked very much like Sarah. He rushed forward, arriving at her quickly to see the most horrible thing he's seen in his life. A solid steel pillar had impaled her in her stomach, and another had crushed her legs. He fell to his knees. He didn't hear when a man had told him to move. He didn't see the silver gargoyle fly towards him. He only moved when he was pushed away by a man in heavy armor. "Hey boyo! You need to get out of here! The city's been overrun by Titans so run to the shore. That seems to be a safe place. Here take a barrier stone. " The man handed him a small stone with one hand and smacked the gargoyle in it's dave with the great sword in his other. He was a bonafide Titan hunter. Vick grabbed the stine and ran. He ran for his life. He sprinted towards the shore, tears flowing from his eyes. That's when he noticed it. A veritable horde of Titans following. They seemed to be following his movements. "Shit! They think I'm a hunter." Vick had just reached the shore, which was not far from the school. Turning to face the 'horde' which just was a few big titans, a mask of intense hatred came across his face. He felt power rush into him. He recognized it to be the same type of power they had tested him for. The one that said he had no talent for. But he didn't care for that anymore. He was only focused on the Titans in front of him. The power swelled in his legs. He jumped forward. And shockwave rippled through the air.

It had taken hours to push back the titans. Adam had been forced to deal with quite a few of them too. It was a miracle he was still alive really. But what was troubling him was 2 things. The first,"How the hell did they manage to get so far unnoticed? We would've seen them?" He got up and focused on the more immediate thought. He looked in the direction of the shore. During the fight,he had felt an amazing force come from that direction,though he was too occupied to pay attention. But he remembered the boy he sent there. So he travelled there as fast as he could. What he saw when he arrived shocked him. Two dead Titans,heavily wounded before death,and two more Titans trying to locate the enemy. And then he saw a flash, for only a second, zigzagging between the two beasts, and they both flew in opposite directions. He saw that streak go towards one that looked like a giant peacock. It flickered around it, and the peacock recorded multiple blows before falling to the ground lifeless. For a second, Adam saw the boy he sent. But at unimaginable speeds. He did the same thing he did you the peacock to the other Titan and then he stopped. The titan fell, and he screamed. A primal scream of rage and anger. The battlefield was littered with blood and scorch marks. "What the -Did he-did he do this?" Then the ground began to shake, and from the water came a particularly small titan. Only about twice the size of a human male, it came out of the sea and stared at the boy. Then a massive head ripped itself out of the earth and swallowed the boy. That was all Adam saw because after the humanoid creature turned to look at Adam and then flickered. And Adams's head flew.
