Chapter 3 - Event Arising

Meanwhile, as Rose and Moore walked along the street, a group of people approached Rose and stood in front of her. Rose was shocked and turned to Moore, wondering what was happening. The leader of the group, Drake Black, spoke to Rose and said, "Miss Rose, we've been looking for you." Rose was confused and asked, "Who are you and why are you looking for me?" Drake replied, "Our boss, Tony Blend, wants to see you." Rose felt a shockwave run through her body at the mention of Tony Blend.

Tony Blend was the king of the underground society, a ruthless and vindictive man. No one dared to go against him, as those who did often ended up dead or missing, along with their families. Drake continued, "You can either come with us willingly or we can take you by force. You have no choice." Drake and his men paid no attention to Moore.

Terrified, Rose instinctively stood behind Moore. Drake, now focused on Moore, warned him not to be a hero and to leave the "damsel in distress" alone. He reminded Moore that this was not a movie and they were capable of hurting or killing him. Moore stayed silent for a moment before struggling to speak. Drake didn't care and shoved Moore in the chest, causing him to fall into a trance as if he was recalling a memory from another life.

In a flash, Moore began attacking Drake and his gang. With one swift movement, he sent them flying and they landed on the ground, screaming in pain. Some held their hands, others held their legs, and some even lost teeth.

Rose, on the other hand, was shocked and even terrified to say or do anything. All she could do was stare at Moore. Finally, she yelled, "Moore, you can't fight!" Moore woke up from his trance to see the scene before him, wondering what had just happened. Drake screamed at Moore, saying, "Just wait and see what my boss will do to you!" Moore, still in a state of disbelief, said, "I didn't do anything. It wasn't me." Bystanders who witnessed the scene could only stare and shake their heads at the thought of what would happen to Moore for beating up Tony's Blend men. Rose took Moore's hand and dragged him away from the scene. She led him to her apartment building and pressed the elevator button for the sixth floor. She opened the door to her apartment, pulled Moore in, and closed the door. Turning towards Moore without saying a word, she kissed him passionately. Moore's mind went blank the moment Rose started kissing him. After a brief moment of passionate kissing, Rose withdrew her lips from his and said, "Thank you for saving my life." Moore, feeling awkward, could only say, "No problem." In contrast, he wanted Rose. It had been a long time since he felt the breath of a beautiful lady. He could only control his feelings and try to be strong in the face of strong temptation. Suddenly, Rose remembered something and said, "You still stink." Moore let out a strong laugh and said, "I almost forgot about that." Rose could only smile and say, "The bathroom is over there. You can wash up while I get you some clean clothes." Moore casually took off his clothes to reveal his muscular body. Rose could only stare and blush. Her face turned pink for a moment before she shook off the feeling. While Moore was in the bathroom, Rose used the opportunity to tidy up her apartment and cook a simple meal for him.

When Moore emerged from the bathroom with a towel wrapped around his waist, Rose couldn't help but stare yet again. "You old fox, you are truly handsome," she thought to herself. Moore felt awkward, sensing Rose's gaze upon him. Rose stretched out her hand and handed Moore a t-shirt that belonged to her ex. She gestured towards the table, indicating that his food was ready. Moore smiled smugly and said, "Rose, you old devil, you never cease to amaze me." Rose replied with a smile, "How dare you refer to me as old? I am young and beautiful." Moore was at a loss for words and simply walked towards the table, sat down, and began to eat.

Meanwhile, in another realm, a man rushed to the door of a grand room and opened it. Inside, an ageless man or timeless one sat with immense power, his eyes like thunder. The man informed him that the seal had been broken and "he" was awake. The timeless one smiled and said, "It is time." The man was eager to hear that the timeless one was ready to go all out to destroy the enemy of their realm. He asked again, "Is it time for what?" The timeless one replied, "It is time to destroy the destroyer of our world." The timeless man was none other than Lord Za.

Somewhere among the stars, a group of beings known as the Watchers stood watch over the galaxies. One of the beings, Ariel, spoke up and said, "It is time. He has awakened." The other beings looked terrified and asked in unison, "It seems the seal has been broken. Shall we begin?"

Back at the Heart Group headquarters, Katerina was in a quiet room discussing with Madam Gee when she felt a jolt of electricity pass through her heart. It seemed Madam Gee felt the same. They both stared at each other before Madam Gee spoke. "The seal has been broken," she said. Katerina nodded in reply. "We need to act very quickly. Our enemies must be aware of it by now," Katerina said. "Don't worry, Katerina," Madam Gee replied. "He is within our realm this time. We must watch over him before he is ready." "What if the enemy attacks while he is not ready?" Katerina asked, her voice filled with worry. "I cannot afford to lose him again." She took out an old photograph and stared at it with tears dropping from her eyes. She then looked at Madam Gee and said, "Hopefully this time will be different." She walked towards a mirror and said a few incantations before stepping into it.
