Chapter 19 - Danger

"You mean to say that, you've been training... for the last one week, with some guy I've never seen before? In his house?!"

Jayson's eyes was starting to radiate palpable bloodlust.

Tommy shrugged, casually saying:

"Stop being some cyberpunk, homophobic prick. You've constantly been threatening me nowadays and I still don't know why..."

Tommy trailed off what Jayson's strong arm grabbed his shirt pulling him closer.

"You godforsaken f*cker, damn– damn darn...it!"

Jayson babbled with anger... the next moment however, he added.

"Kiss me Tommy..."

Tommy's world suddenly screeches to a halt.

"What?!" He wanted to be sure he heard correctly.

I've been putting off with this madness for so long... I'm no freaking gay! How then did he become my boyfriend in the first place?!

Jayson saw Tommy's jaws lock... as if, struggling.

"Ah... I knew it. I knew that you no longer love me. Yes, it's clear– you find that guy much more attractive— I've become Jayson the unattractive homophobic Cyberpunk prick! I see it now..."

However the next moment, Jayson's tone underwent a strange and eerie change.

"...But, let's get something straight– you can't dump me! I will dump you when I want to– you don't decide, and as for those friends of yours... don't bother with them or I will fuck them up!"

Tommy's eyes suddenly blazed inciting a dangerous pressure that descended like a hurricane storm.

"You mean Edward and Riele, hahahaha... I've made plans to see them. Also, least I forget... You have no right whatsoever to dictate how I keep my friends, so fuck off!"

Tommy turned leaving, but Jayson suddenly grabbed him... chilling murder, burning deep within his eyes.

"You were not like this Tom— I don't know how you got the courage to challenge me. I'm a f*cking Non-return for crying out loud! Don't you fear that I'd attack you?"

Tommy's eyes stared as the pressure vanished, leaving an eerie calmness. "I believe that you can't harm me— you still have... even if it's a tiny winny ounce of love for me."

"Fuck up!!" Jayson was screwed.

"And you don't? I love you Tom... But— what about you? Do you love me?"

Tommy did not answer to his question, instead he looked at the table stand where he kept his phone and grabbed it.

"I'm leaving!"

Jayson shook his head saying..."you go nowhere, since you've not answered my question!"

"I do not owe you an answer Jayson!" Tommy's voice was calm alongside his piercing gaze.

Jayson chuckled... "You're becoming quite brazen..."

But suddenly, Jayson threw a massive projectile with something known as a super fast speed and Tommy's eyes widened.

This attack from Jayson would Instantly destroy the White House.

Immediately, he unleashed his world from Unconsciousness... Instantly isolating himself from the White House entirely.

However, Jayson still thinks that he was in the White House. Almost seventy yards as his world and Jayson was within that range.

Tommy saw the approaching projectile and he commanded— 'Undo...'

That moment, the moving projectile slowed to a crawl and then, froze. Then... It began to vanish... Particles after particles until it was Instantly erased from existence.

Jayson's eyes widened.

"How did you do that?"

Tommy ignored the question, also asking a question of his own.

"So, you planned to kill me, huh?"

Jayson immediately sneered. "If you were in my shoes, you would have done the same. Someone needs to teach you how to behave— you're growing wings."

He attacked again, this time... vanishing and appearing before Tommy in an instant.

Tommy calmly stared at him— he used a law in his world to make himself illusory.

So that Jayson would think he was close... Meanwhile he was far away.

When Jayson finally struck, the resulting shockwaves slammed into nothing in particular.

'Impossible...'

Tommy's eyes suddenly hardened.

"You are in my world so, suffer the full brunt of my power..."

Tommy appeared...

Making all of the laws in the world to coalesce together. Then... All of the attacks Jayson had used was reverted back to him tenfold.

Ten projectiles and ten shockwaves...

The impact blasted him almost 100 yards away and out of Tommy's world range.

Jayson saw blood all over his body as he stared at Tommy in horror and shock.

His world? I thought only Sovereigns can create worlds around them... how did Tommy do it as an Awakened?

Jayson was struggling from the shock that he did not realize when and how Tommy left the White House.

Meanwhile, Tommy had torn through the void leaving a massive distance behind...

But the next minute, his entire person screamed of intense danger...

Tommy had been heading towards the Echelon High School, only to realize that his movement had slowed considerably.

His movement then, halted by an unfathomable power. As if canceling his own will to do anything.

Then, an ominous feeling settled and...

Something grabbed at Tommy without a care in the world and after Tommy had vanished did the "sudden slow" picked up it's pace around the world.

Tommy realized that it is a kidnap case.

A sudden sense of dèjá Vú hits him like the tide... as if he had been kidnapped before.

However, he was given no time at all to think...

He immediately unleashed his Essence Of Life and his pulse power...

And he, rewinded time.

Tommy then, found himself standing at this point before he was overwhelmed by an unfathomable power that slowed him down.

He Instantly took two steps back, a spatial crack appearing before him and he vanished... far away from there as possible.

"What just happened?" Amir was shocked.

Even Underworld could not explain what had happened.

One minute, they had actually captured the person they had planned to capture for so long— but suddenly they forgot...

Starting all over again, only... this time, he escaped.

After Tommy had escaped did they instantly regain their memories. Amir and Underworld were Sovereigns so, their memories cannot be robbed that easily.

"Did he rewind time?" Amir could not contain his shock.

Anyone who cultivated the power of time is considered almost god-like...

"Time is indeed a harrowing power to fathom." Underworld said still speechless that an Awakened had escaped two Sovereigns kidnap attack.
