Chapter 110 - APPLICATIONS OF DARK ENERGY

I realized Lilith and Apollo had now always had their heads in books or on screens, or being tutored by Alexa, and they were always asking about energy and how it could change from form to form when they were already experts in that subject...what were they up to?

The worst part was, due to their numerous lights, they had developed an immunity to my mind reading, so I could only rely on their words, which I was sure were false.

Lilith also started eating more since then and I was sure it had something to do with her training, but the most eventful thing happened a few days later...

One of the Squeakers got a litter of five kittens...puppies...squeakies.

It didn't feed them milk, so it wasn't a mammal, and that made classifying it more complicated as it was a vertebrate.

Instead of milk, it vomited food for its...squeakies.

That was similar to what birds did but Squeakers was no bird.

I was at the camp one day, burning the midnight oil while Anneliese had gone to visit her family, and Alexa was teaching her college class.

My mom was alone with Lilith and Apollo.

My mom put them to bed, kissed them, then walked out of the room and the clones closed their eyes.

The real Lilith and Apollo were in the park.

Frankie had his hands close together and started moving them closer and farther away from each other as a wind started to blow on his hands then he looked at them and said,"I did it..."

"I'm only going to ask you one more time, get me out of here or I'll stuff your armour into your mouth!"

The man remained silent as he looked through a window.

The man banged the doors which were made of a clear material he couldn't identify.

He blasted electricity at it as that was the only form of energy for him to use without hurting himself.

It absorbed all the electricity then blue lines traveled through the material as if electric currents were passing through it, then they converged again and blasted back at him.

He wasn't prepared and yelled in pain as the electricity shocked him for several seconds.

He fell down then said to himself,"That was new..."

The man finally moved from the window and walked to him then Franklin asked,"What do you even want from me?"

"To know how your light works."The man said simply.

"Then what will happen?"

"I will erase the existence of lights all around the world..."

Frankie started getting better at controlling energy, most notably, dark energy and was slowly able to make it more stable.

At first, he made violent explosions due to atomic sized amounts and now he could make some the size of amino acids.

Lilith and Apollo were more of experience teachers, letting him find out for himself, what caused its strange properties like why it exploded, why it made things so big, why it made light when it closed, why it made such loud shockwaves, why it heated the air around it to thousands of degrees or why it made things colder, a lot colder, as in, a fraction of a kelvin above absolute zero or why it always destroyed solid objects, or crushed them.

He found out that it expanded objects by impacting great amounts of kinetic energy on their atoms or molecules in all directions, making them spread apart, which made a zone of really low pressure at the core and thus, low temperature, since there were few to no atoms to heat up the space but adiobatic compression had the opposite effect on the area around the core.

The molecules then hit the others which weren't expanded, in the area around them then created a massive shockwave.

This explained why it made the core cold, exploded, made a shockwave and made things so big.

The light that came during its collapse was due to a phenomenon called sonoluminescence, where bubbles of low pressure in a fluid imploded with great force and created light. It wasn't well understood so didn't have many practical uses yet.

The reason it collapsed and destroyed every solid in its core by crushing them was due to the low pressure in the centre. When the expanding object ran out of energy, the vacuum on the inside worked with the atmospheric pressure on the outside to close the gap made by the dark energy and everything went back to normal in an instant, other than most solids which will be crushed by that force.

It could do everything most forms of energy could, just more powerfully, and he was now making microscopic amounts.

Since then, I always saw Lilith with Frankie and wondered what they were doing, till I realized her obvious feelings for him, I smiled at her and tried not to judge him by his looks, but by what she saw in him.

Apollo also had his own life.

He wasn't yet into relationships, but he was training his three lights to their limits, I also had to teach him the skills I hadn't taught him yet as his level was quickly catching up to mine, but he seemed very interested in my energy and plant manipulation for some reason.

Alexa and Trevor broke up.

They decided their differences were too great for them to stay together and they did it on a low note, being furious at each other while yelling the words and I had honestly never seen Alexa that angry, what happened between them?

He used to be the only one for her but now, she seemed she wouldn't marry him if he was the last man on earth.

My mom started dating again, to a man named Indigo.

He was a level 4 Hurricane Lad who was also unbelievably handsome, not as handsome as my dad I must add.

I didn't know why I had the feeling my mom just wanted to marry him to make a new generation of super good looking, super powerful children.

I know she was in her fifties but enlightened humans tended to stay fertile for longer than normal humans, much longer.

My mom was a recessive H 2 Order and he was a dominant Hurricane Lad with two homozygous recessive wind light genes, so the chances of getting such a chance were great.

It was due to this I didn't trust him and made him know by criticizing his every move.

I also made everything hard for him, but later on couldn't tell if I was scared of my dad being replaced or angry that this relationship was going against everything I stood for.

Despite all of this, he seemed nice and never retaliated or threatened me.

It was possibly because I was seven levels above him, or could be because he was that nice a guy.

My mom also seemed happy with him, not as happy as with my dad I must add, but still, happy, that didn't make me warm up to him any more, though I could sense him saying nice things about me and my dad from afar.
