"That is the trail that leads to the third dimension. After shutting the door, most of you will be chosen as runners and you must assume the positions given to you," Gaius said."How do we know the positions given to us?" Klaus asked."If you are selected you will have a vision and you will be told where to stand and you must wait there until the previous runner reaches your destination and taps you by the hand. When it's your time to run you must run with all you've got because if the race is not done promptly then the entire process will be destroyed," Gaius explained."How many runners do we have and how do we know them when we see one?" Elise asked."I can't explain it but I am sure you will recognise them. You will know what to do when that time comes but for the moment you must shut the fourth dimension," Gaius replied."What about the first runner? I thought he is supposed to come with us since he is the one to begin the race? Why haven’t you relieved his identity yet?" Felix sa

“Uncle, this is not about Thomas. This is not his decision, this is our decision,” Silas said plainly.Hearing this Kelvin approached Silas furiously. “So you think you are now a leader don’t you. Do you think you can handle yourself without me? I am older than you and your mother entrusted you to my care,” Thomas could feel the tension and it was not good. The more time they waste arguing, the more they lose both the runner and the survivors if there were any. “This is not about leadership Kelvin and even if you think that was the case I have no interest in leading. All I care about right now are the innocent lives that might be wasting out there if we don’t help them,”“Don’t you get it yet?” Kelvin furrowed his face at Thomas. “This dimension is false. This place is not our home, we don’t belong here,”“The fact that we don’t belong here doesn’t make it false, this place is home to the indigenes; this place is their earth and they deserve to live as much as we do,” Elise answered.

About half an hour later they arrived on board and they all walked out of the ice boat. Their bodies were ice cold except for Felix who was able to keep his body warm as a fire manipulator.Thomas took his eyes off the ice boat which melted away into the sea as he turned to Tyler, robbing his palm softly on his arms."This was not cool at all," Elise mumbled as she turned to Felix with a frown on her face. "Why are you staring at me that way?" Felix asked."You are so selfish…" She answered grudgingly and staring a little longer she groaned then left forging ahead towards the cliff."Elise…" Thomas called but ended up wobbling as a result of the cold. "That's not advisable. What you need right now is warmth," Sebastian said while walking past Thomas.They followed Elise and Kelvin as they tracked many miles until they arrived at the high cliff. The last time Thomas remembered that plain they were coming downwards but this time it will be different since they are supposed to move up t

About five hours later Thomas' ears picked up the sound of someone yelling his name. He opened his eyes gently and still feeling dizzy, he looked forward. It was already dark and through his blurry sight he could see fiery sparks and electric blasts. To him it only seemed like fireworks mixed with noise of people, he thought it was a dream so he sat still until Elise screamed his name a lot louder.“Thomas!” he heard her call. His eyes opened up and right before him was a giant crab with its two cramps ready to smash him to pieces. Without hesitation he threw himself to the floor as he rolled away. The cramps of the crab smashed against the tree as it divided in two drastically dropping to the floor.Frightened by the sudden attack Thomas jerked off the floor, staggering backward until his back hit against a tree. While staring at the giant crab he heard the sound of wild fire from his left as he turned to see Felix battling with one of the aliens and just some feet away was Tyler and

Hearing those words Kelvin moved past him as he ordered them to follow his lead. Thomas followed behind the rest of them as they forged ahead. All the way forward his eyes were dizzy and his countenance was worn out. He moved weakly but he was sure not to make anyone realize that. “Stop,” at Kevin’s order they halted. “We are here,” Kelvin said as he turned around to them. “We all know what we are up against. We are about to enter the territory of a very dangerous creature. Do all you can to keep your movement steady, avoid causing any vibration and most importantly no talking,” Kelvin ordered.“Why do we need any of that when we have our powers?” Tyler said.“Just do as I say, we will use our powers only in case of an emergency,” Kelvin answered then moved ahead and they all followed. They followed his lead and for over Thirty minutes there was no sign of any predator. To Tyler and Ben walking like the earth was about to crumble when there was no sign of a predator felt like another
