Team A was approaching the dangerous stream when one of the students shouted, "Isn't that Amy?" They all looked at a levitating boy with an emotionless expression, staring at Amy like a hungry hyena.
Zoey quickly studied the situation. "They are in trouble. That guy is going to kill them." Timi looked at her and nodded, trying to teleport there, but his powers weren't working. He tried again and immediately fell to the ground, panting. "It's like there is something restricting us from accessing the other side of the river." Zoey looked at Timi, then stared at Michael, who was still unconscious, lying on top of Buchi. She was confused and didn't know what to do. If they didn't get to the other side, all of the students may die. But if she does get there, what will she do?
While Zoey was lost in thought, a girl sprang up from their group. "My name is Ginny, and I'm a genius. My ability is genius. Now, Zoey, I am pretty sure that the reason Timi can't move from here to the other side is because there is a law around the river that restricts spatial movement like Timi's. But if we walk on the water, then the law will allow us. The point of the law is to make sure any living being that goes to the other side dies by the river. But, Zoey, what if we made the river walkable?"
Zoey knew that Ginny's plan was possible, but the problem wasn't the possibility; it was her condition after. Because she will possibly be too weak to do anything after the attack. But Timi quickly encouraged her. "Zoey, if you don't do this, they all die. We all die. That guy must be very strong to render Amy, Duke, and Loop useless. And remember, we are standing on the back of a beast which could possibly kill us with a look. And if you're worried about Michael, then don't be. Michael is as resilient as a cockroach, and I doubt he will be out for so long. So, come on, Zoey, freeze this place."
Zoey smiled shortly before her eyes glowed blue like the North Pole's aurora. As she gestured for everyone to move out, her breath became visible due to the temperature drop, her skin slowly accumulating frost bites. As she levitated, she whispered in a voice so cold and elegant, but at the same time, dangling to life as she had reached the point that even her heart was freezing, "ABSOLUTE ZERO." The river froze almost instantly. The trees became rock ice, even the students had to use their energy and abilities to prevent themselves from freezing to death. The range of the cold was so big that the students on the other side were even affected. But Zoey didn't make the attack for only the river; she also made it for the emotionless boy levitating above injured Amy, as his whole body resembled an ice sculpture.
But of course, there were consequences to such output as Zoey staggered but fought the strain as she gestured Timi to control everyone across the ice river. "Everyone, quickly move to the other side," Timi shouted, as all the students snapped out of their amazement towards Zoey's capabilities and ran to the other side, where they reunited with their friends or siblings.
King Duke smiled while sighing in relief, but it was temporary, as he cut off everyone all the slack. "Everyone, that guy in ice is frozen, but it won't last. He is after Amy. Also, if you have any healing potions, drop them now or a healer because Amy is seriously injured." A girl with green hair popped out of the crowd. "My name is Amaka. I'm a healer." Amaka quickly left Michael's side and rushed towards Amy to heal her. That's when King Duke noticed, "Michael! What happened to him?" The whole of Team A looked at him with a sad expression, but Zoey, who was still struggling to move even spoke up, "He saved all of us in Team A from a dragon but went unconscious due to the injuries and strain," King Duke stared in shock. "Wow."
Timi remembered what King Duke said. "Wait, shouldn't we leave here because that Bishop guy isn't going to stay frozen for long?" King Duke nodded. "Yes, but let Amy heal; she is our only transportation." Timi laughed at this statement. "Only," he said in mockery as he demonstrated his teleportation ability in front of King Duke. King Duke was shocked but got his composure quickly. "Okay, good. We need to move at least fifty kilometers away from here." Timi nodded. "I can do that in fifty teleports," as he went to the back of two students to teleport them. But a voice reverberated through the ears of all the students that made those familiar with it shiver, "Did you really think a little ice would stop me?
''Ground, open up and swallow them all." But Zoey wasn't going to let that happen; she immediately created her terrain for her and the students to stand on. "Interesting, a new character." Bishop vanished and appeared in front of King Duke. "You're the one that must die first, you pest." Zoey screamed, "No, you will die first," she screamed as she fired her ice towards Bishop, but Bishop vanished. "Where is he?" Duke and Zoey asked. Timi shouted, "Michael!! Leave Michael alone." Timi teleported rapidly while his light sword materialized as he stabbed straight into absolutely nothing as Bishop vanished again. "Nice ability, but mine's better. By my estimate, you can only teleport thirty more times. Anyway, I don't have time for this, including now that I found another sin, in fact, a stronger one," he stared at Michael as a long tongue protruded from his mouth.
Amy, on the other hand, had finally awoken. "Thank you, green girl," she immediately stood while enforcing energy into her legs as she ran straight to Michael's body and stood in front of it. Zoey did the same even though she was slowly freezing to death in this form. King Duke, Loop, and Timi all stood in front of Michael as they shouted, "You won't touch Michael," the students who hated Michael were all shocked but didn't say a word because at the moment they were looking at more than half the group known as the STRONG ONES.
Bishop laughed, "Cute but weak. I guess I'll use my true form. At least I'm not disrespectful to weaklings." Bishop, who was once a boy, grew three feet taller as he was now seven feet. His skin complexion turned darker, while his eyes were purple with yellow pupils. His teeth sharpened, and a cloak grew from his back covering his head in Robin Hood style as he licked his lips with his long tongue. "GET READY TO DIE ALL IN THE NAME OF PROTECTING THE WORST SIN OF THEM ALL."
