Stanley looked at the Lightning Nova, the spark of electricity on his fingers that still crackled with sparks. He looked at Fred next, the man on the ground with a large push.
"Fight!" he shouted. There was no time to wait anymore. He looked around for his weapon; he had left it where he previously stood. He needed to get to it.
An electric spark filled his vision with a bright flash.
"Not so fast," Garren's voice came to Stanley from behind him.
Stanley felt his heart palpitate. When had he gotten behind him? He was in front of him just a moment before.
Stanley turned to punch, but the Lightning Nova seemed to have seen it coming and used his hands to try and parry the strike. However, he had underestimated Stanley's force.
The punch landed right on the man's chest, but where Stanley expected to see a hole blown out, he only saw a glowing shield that slowly dimmed.
