Tommy's body trembled alongside Wittney White...
Who is that person, and why is he threatening Wittney White?
A lot of questions popped within Tommy's mind. Tommy is a newbie Awakened. He hasn't even stepped into the Stream-entry stage which made him very, very different from those that have stepped into that stage. The disparity is like the difference between the heaven and the earth.
Should I step out?
Edward stared at Tommy. "You are the only Awakened here in Echelon High School... Sir Garrett would like it if you act."
Tommy did not respond.
His gaze was unto the gaunt figure of the assassin– the one ambushing Wittney.
It didn't take two seconds and Principal Garrett pulled Tommy.
"You're an Awakened for goodness sake why are you still standing there?"
Tommy's gaze faltered.
"What about Mage James and Mage Regina? They should be here right?"
Principal Garrett shook his head...
"Awakened Gina lied, she bought three tickets and she gave them out which means... they had none. They're gone!"
Tommy's eyes widened, and he glared at the assassin once again.
...
Wittney White's guards ran towards the stage, refraining from pulling the trigger, they instantly charged at the man.
The first guard reached, but with the Assassin's fist, he was blasted backwards by a terrifying power.
There was a deafening collision and he crashed unto the loud speakers.
The murmuring crowds suddenly fell silent. The immense strength had sent chills down their spines. They wouldn't even talk again, afraid that one word would cause them instant death.
He suddenly grabbed Wittney by the shirt, but the other guard slammed a fist upon the assassin but, his approaching fist was Instantly halted and then, the deafening sound of bone popping resounded.
Crckkkkkkk.....
And then, painful howl from the guard in question. His fingers were crushed under the weight of Immense power.
Arghhhhhh....
Tommy stood up but stopped.
"What?" Edward asked realizing that he was hesitating.
Suddenly, Edward sneered. "Or we're you lying that you are Awakened?"
Tommy immediately snorted, not answering his questions.
It was necessary to guage his opponent's strength...
Plus have him reveal all of his trump card so that Tommy could win the fight.
Tommy realized something.
This assassin would not be like Theodore who's weak body had been sent flying and slamming upon the arch walls yesterday. Instead, he would be formidable. Plus, he did not know if he had attained Stream-entry or a Once-return...
Even Once-return experts we're considered dangerous for Stream-entry experts, not to talk of the Non-return experts who can actually begin questing for their aspect formation.
After a moment of consideration, Tommy stepped out causing Principal Garrett to heaved a sigh of relief. He had been extremely bothered that Tommy would continue hiding himself... Plus, it would be a thing of shame for Echelon High School if a celebrity was kidnapped in the school premises... Which would mean, the school isn't capable of protecting it's guest, plus... It's students should be in constant danger too.
The worst part about this is that, everything happening now is being Livestreamed on the net.. either way, the Awakened association should be sending down reinforcement to help stop this assassin from committing this crime.
When the crowd+ saw Tommy, many of them were shocked. Who in this world did not know that an Awakened possess strength and speed higher than theirs...
Now the question is: what a pretty boy like Tommy is trying to do.
People started to murmur.
The guards had failed, so is it Tommy that would stop this? Every one despaired wondering how to salvage the situation go.
Tommy stared at the assassin.
"Let Wittney White go!"
The assassin stared at Tommy with a strange glare. Something was definitely up with the way Tommy spoke...
Confidence...
The gaunt man stared at Tommy suspiciously and he grabbed White's neck, causing the man to scream.
"Come any closer and I'll damage his singing voice for ever..."
A mighty gasp tore out from the crowd, including Tommy.
His singing voice? How can Wittney be Wittney without his singing voice?
Tommy's face darkened and suddenly he vanished from the eyes of the crowd, appearing before the assassin in an instant, causing even the assassin to panic.
Three seconds...
No body knew what happened in this three seconds, but they saw two figure blur, one collided unto the other and Wittney White fell out from the circle, dropping the floor a distance from the battle.
Coughing violently, White managed to find his way up, assisted by the last guard who had not taken action, they left the hall.
Meanwhile, Tommy was shocked.
This person was indeed powerful. But, the lucky thing is that, even the assassin had not broken into the Stream-entry first stage of an Awakened.
Fist collided, causing both figure's hands to turn numb. The power of such collision was simply too astounding.
Tommy left his afterimage behind and then, creating intense wind that formed Spears and spikes rushing towards the assassin in all directions.
Fifteen seconds, a powerful ripples spread Instantly through the void and both Tommy and the assassin was frozen still by a terrifying pressure.
An Ascended had just arrived.
"Saint Tyrion?" The assassin recognized who it was and the man in question scoffed.
"Yes that's me... It's time to return to jail."
He grabbed the assassin opening a dimension... Or spatial cracks tossing him into it.
However, when he turned to take a look at the other Awakened, he only saw an afterimage.
Stream-entry, huh...
He did not know who it was and the crowd did not bother telling him anything. So he vanished into these spatial cracks leaving behind a desolate and ruined stadium...
Tommy let out a sigh of relief as he sat beside Edward and Riele.
None of them believed what had happened. Tommy had simply acted... Vanishing and attacking with a speed none of them could follow.
As a human, when it is ever possible for them to witness the fight of Inhumans? Never heard in all of history.
Meanwhile, Tommy had finally succeeded in breaking through... He was now in the Stream-entry realm. If that Ascended had not arrived, he should have defeated the assassin in a few moves.
Tommy had learnt a skill after breaking through, he could leave an afterimage behind while his main body had teleported a distance or 30 to 50-yards.
Which was enough for Blake to negate the tracks of the Ascended.
