As the hotel residents continued to scurry across the building to their room, meanwhile in the Death Desert Bar, an exhausted Michael lay on the counter, ready to doze off into his sleep any second now. As the bartender slipped over to him, he tapped him on the shoulder. "Hey, kid. What are you doing here? Are your parents around?" Michael sighs as he eyed the bartender. "My parents… don't live here…" he said, finally being taken over by sleep. 30 seconds into his snooze of a lifetime, however, he sensed a glass cup being thrown at him from across the room in just a matter of seconds. Barely dodging the cup, he sees a man hitting on an innocent woman deeper into the bar.
"So, baby girl, where are you from?" the man asked, smiling romantically at his so-called "date." The woman, tied to the chair, continued to struggle through the massive layers of ropes the man had put him through. "MMMMMPH!" she exclaimed, shaking her chair even more. As the man took off his hoodie, his identity was finally revealed.
KALEB KAWASAKI - 2,000,000 DOLLARS
Michael rolled his eyes in a disapproving manner. "What the hell is going on now? It's literally 11 AM in the morning, yet these idiots are on a date! I'll show them who they just threw a cup at!" As Michael approached the mysterious lady, who was accompanied by Kaleb, Michael sighed, looking back up at the kid. "Hey! You're that bitch that threw that bottle, aren't you?" he exclaimed. Kaleb laughed. "These kids these days! Thinking you're all tough? I got a girl that can beat your ass in one punch!" As Michael looked back at the girl, his smile of sarcasm turned into a massive loss of brain cells. "MMMMMMMMMMMMMMPH!" the woman exclaimed, trying to free her hands of the massive ropes. Suddenly, Kaleb appeared right behind Michael with a gun to his head. "I'll pop your head full of lead! Nobody looks at my girl!" he exclaimed, ready to pull the trigger. Michael smiled. "So this is where I finally have to get fun!" he thought to himself. As the trigger was set off, a red glow ignited from Michael's eyes, enhancing his attack speed. Before the bullet (which was right at his head) could pierce the skull of Michael, the gun had fallen on the floor along with Kaleb being head-first into the wooden floor of the bar. "This is boring, bring someone else that'll fight me!" he exclaimed, laughing. Suddenly, Kaleb emerged from the floorboard with a smile of darkness. "You have chosen death, young soul!" he exclaimed, pulling out a lasso covered with lightning. "Hah! I could survive that and get to you in one shot!" Michael said, smoking his cigarette. "Wait, why the hell am I smoking?" As the lasso of lightning charged at Michael, picking up the cigarette, he threw it at Kaleb, giving it the ignition it needed. As the woman continued to spectate the fight, she knew she could depend on Michael to save her life from the wretched Kaleb Kawasaki. As Michael was hidden in the flames of the fire, he finally appeared behind Kaleb, ready to give him a massive punch of wind. Blocking the punches easily, Kaleb laughed. "You're no match for me! My name is Kaleb Kawasaki!" he said, directing his rope of lightning toward the determined Michael once again. Flying out of the bar due to the impact, Michael landed on a nearby hill from the hotel bar, making a giant splash of sand from the impact. Kaleb laughed. "That's all you got? You dirty, nasty little bi-"
As Kaleb continued his speech, the glow had continued in Michael's eyes. "Just… follow the path like Jayden said." he thought to himself, smiling. As Michael dashed back into the bar, a massive charge of electricity ignited across the hotel, creating a massive crowd in its wake.
Their bounties would definitely be raised now.
As Kaleb continued his attempt to catch Michael in his clutches, continuing to dodge fluently, Michael continued to dash past him, creating multiple illusions across the battlefield. "Shit! His movements are too fast!" Kaleb thought to himself. But his last vision of the bar would finally occur, as he saw something on Michael's feet.
Electricity.
As the dashing Michael pierced the stomach of the heinous Kaleb Kawasaki, multiple bolts of lightning rained down on the cloudy skies of Death Desert. As Kaleb continued to get knocked across the desert continuously, he coughed up multiple amounts of blood along the way, each one adding to the pain he had already endured mentally and physically when the woman said no to dating him. "Who the hell is this kid!?" Kaleb thought, continuing to get knocked away from the bar by his massive bolts of electricity and his overwhelming strength and speed. Suddenly, all the electricity surrounding Michael became purple. "This is something else Jayden taught us back in Crystal City…" he whispered to himself. "Although I don't think I've mastered it yet. Suddenly, all time stopped in its tracks, except for Michael. Kaleb's blood had ceased to fall onto the ground as well, along with the massive shockwave that pierced his stomach staying in place. As Michael ran back to the starting point (the bar,) his eyes started to glow again, but they were a different color.
Yellow. As the eye had changed color, time seemed to proceed normally.
As murmurs continued throughout the crowd, Michael charged back at Kaleb. "This is what your ass gets for harassing a representative of the Crystal City Government, and also harming a young lady!" Kaleb screamed. "SHIT! THERE'S NO WAY I'LL BE ABLE TO MOVE!" As he got back up, blood continued to pour down his waist. "If I die here, it'll be with a courageous manner! I'LL FIGHT BACK NO MATTER WHAT!" he exclaimed, supercharging his lasso with blue lightning. Now, it was an all-out clash.
Blue vs. Yellow - who would win?
As the attacks finally collided, screaming from the two parties could be heard throughout the hotel, expanding the crowd even more. But right after that, everything went silent. The explosion of impact was too loud for people to hear. Michael, standing victorious from the battle, walked back up to the tied up lady. "I'll cough get you out of there… just cough give me a… a…. A…"
Michael fainted on the floor of the bar.
