Chapter 91
Colin Trust was about to step out of the house, when his phone rang. He smiled when he saw the ID, and instantly picked. Pressing the phone to his ears, his smiled widened. "Kingston Luxe." He said, in place of the usual hello."I want you to tell the cops Elijah attacked me." Kingston, following the theme of no pleasantries, screamed from the other end of the line."Whoa, calm down screech! I thought we've settled this already?""Like hell we have! I want to see that good for nothing bastard rotting in jail." He spat violently into the phone.Colin withdrew the phone from his ears briefly. Slapping the surface of the ears with his palm, he brought the phone back. "Maybe you didn't understand what that good for nothing bastard said. You will be going to jail too if you report him.""I won't, and you know that. I can buy my freedom. Something that idiot can't do."Colin was tickled by how much venom Kingston reserved for Elijah. His father held the same anger towards the man too.

"Where are we going again?" Tobias asked, fastening his seatbelt as Elijah started the car."To Crawford laboratory." He replied in a serious voice."What!" Tobias' eyes bulged when he realized what he had just said."You heard me." He shrugged, driving out of his compound."Why do you make these impulsive decisions? What if someone sees us and figures out you're Dr Bane's son?""And how's that going to happen?" He asked, his eyes glued to the road."I don't know. It could just happen.""It won't. It's no secret I used to work for Dr Banes. Going to the lab is not weird at all.""But we need a permit to be admitted in," He suddenly sat up in excitement. "Are you going to use your powers? You know, teleport us in." He asked, grinning from ear to ear.Elijah took his eyes off the road long enough to give him a reproaching look. "Do you just say everything in your mind? You know my powers are locked in the ring." He hissed, returning his attention to the road."I know." He fro

"Who the hell do you think you are?" Limpy's hands on the gun vibrated."Careful now officer," Elijah stretched out a hand to calm his movements. "I can be whatever you want me to be. But for now, I'll settle for the harmless guy you'll be opening the gates to the lab for. What do you say Limp? Friends?"Tobi chuckled by his side, as the man grew red."Oh for fucks sake Ronald, drop the gun!" Droopy screamed in fear."You heard him. Common!" Tobias urged.His eyes was on the man with the gun,but his focus was on Stubbles who had managed to whip out his gun, and was slowly crawling up."We're officers of the law. We can't let these bloody civilians step on us just like that." He screamed, his voice not matching the confidence of his words."Don't be a cunt Ron. These men could easily kill us. Drop the bloody gun!"Elijah and Tobi's eyes met. "Here." Elijah said, pushing Droopy towards him. Immediately, a shot from behind blasted."Bloody hell!" Droopy screamed out loud, as the

He closed the journal, and returned it back to the drawer. Retrieving his phone from his pocket, he dialled a number."How're you doing my darling?” A friendly voice speaks through the phone."Cleo." He called, relief flooding his voice."Thought you said you were done with Tokyo City, and everything that has to do with it?" "I thought so too. Turns out Tokyo City is not done with me. Everywhere I turn, my space is invaded."She chuckled. "What did you expect? You're a god. gods are like the earthly celebrities. Only with more power, a niche kind of fame, drawn to like a mother to a flame, and a wicked amount of finesse." She breathed heavily, as if she was walking.Few seconds after, her heels scrapping on granite floor pretty much confirmed she was."If it were just about me, I wouldn't mind.""They're already attacking the girl? Yikes.""Wait, you know about Winnie?" He asked. Just when he thought he had cracked a code, there was more confusion always waiting for him."W

"Where is she!" Tiana screamed the house down in search of her daughter."Ma'am, is everything okay?" Scarlet, their housekeeper of over ten years, hurried from the kitchen, to answer Tiana."Where is Rhonda? Where is she!" "I'm here mum. Why the screams?" Rhonda asked, coming down the stairs."Why the screams?" She raised her head, her voice filled with anger. "I'm just coming from my visit to Nathan Luxe. Imagine my surprise when I found out he was ready to be discharged, but couldn't leave because his son was brought in a state of emergency.""Okay? What does any of that have to do with me?" She said, walking over to her mother."Don't get silly with me Rhonda. Kingston told me it wasn't thugs that attacked him. He said your swine of an ex did that to him, and you stood there encouraging him to hit!" “How could you do that Rhonda? How could you!""Enough mum! If you knew what Kingston said to me, you wouldn't be feeling sorry for him.""What could he have possibly said t

"Was it someone you knew ---" Tobias' voice trailed when he raised his head and saw Cleo, instead of Elijah he had expected."Finally, I see you in person." She threw a wink and walked over to the table where the meal had been served."Your bags are in a room upstairs in case you're wondering," Elijah said, walking in on Tobias with his mouth wide open."She's so hot!" Snow said, half his mouth occupied by a bone."You won't be the first, or last to say that, Doggy." She turned her face, throwing him a wink.The bone fell off his mouth, as his tail wagged with excitement. "Finally! Another person who can hear me." He said in jubilation."Wait, I thought you asked me not to call you Doggy?" Elijah said, sitting beside Cleo."What? Me? When did I ever say that?" "Leave the dog alone Elijah. He's so cute." Cleo smiled."You heard that Elijah? I'm so cute." He raised his paws to prove just how cute he was.Elijah rolled his eyes and faced forward. He blinked in surprise when he

The loud voices coming from the living room to Elijah's room woke him up. He almost smothered himself with a pillow, regretting why he invited so many people to his house. It was just Cleo and Tobias. Three if you counted Snow. Still, it felt like he was living in a barrack with all that noise.Dragging himself out of bed, he proceeded into the bathroom for a quick shower. By the time he stepped out, his headache had drastically reduced. He walked over to his closet with his towel tied securely around his waist. Suddenly, his door pushed open, and Cleo in a robe came in. "Rise and shine Angel!" She said in a singsong voice, holding two mugs in her hand."What are you doing barging into my room, just like that!" He howled in annoyance.She whistled, giving him a quick once over. "This is quite the sight?" She said, throwing him a wink."I'm not in the mood Cleo. It's too early for your shenanigans." He hissed, turning his back to her."Well, you better snap out of that fowl mo

Elijah comes out of his room to see both Cleo and Tobias waiting for him. "Wait, you were serious about driving you?" He asked, his face already squeezing into a frown."Let's go Elijah." Cleo walked away, ignoring his question.His face scrunched as he watched her leave, but when he turned to Tobias, the clown had a dazed expression on his face."Get a hold of yourself, man!" He shook his head."I know right? I'm not even that thirsty." Snow said, appearing from nowhere."Man, she's so hot!" Tobias said."You know what else is hot? My fist if you don't keep it moving." Elijah hissed and stormed out."Why's he always in a foul mood?" Tobias muttered, following after him."Maybe it's because someone, read Winnie Carter is being hard on him." Snow wags his tail, returning to where he came from."Quantum City is so much brighter than Tokyo." Cleo sighed, reclining into the backseat chair."Right?" Elijah said from the wheel."Yeah. There's such a dark cloud hovering in Tokyo. Per

"You're a good man Howie," Elijah said as the big man led him towards Kingston's room. "You even saved your friend from a beating. How kind of you." He stetched his hands to pat the man's shoulder, but he flinched in fright."What? I'm not going to hurt you. We're friends now right?" He raised a quizzical brow."Su--re." He stuttered."Good. I'll take it from here." He said, offering him a genuine smile.He had barely completed his words when Howie turned around, and hurried away. He chuckled at the sight the giant of a man presented, running from someone who was considerably smaller than him. Suddenly, he felt a little bit of pity for him. His eyes went to his boots and he shrugged. "Didn't think you were that hard to be honest."But when his eyes returned to the door that separated him from the person he truly wanted to hurt, it darkened. "Bastard." He cursed silently, pushing it open."Dr Hill? Is that you?" Kingston straightened into a sitting position. He was ready t

"Hey Kingston, are you awake?" Elijah turned to Kingston who groaned in pain on the bed. Walking over to him, he reached out to cover his mouth but suddenly paused."Fuck it." He muttered.Kingston tried to speak, but the only thing that came out of his mouth was silent air. He fell, with his back to the bed, and his hands on his aching stomach. Tears rushed down his face, from not only the physical pain but the shame he felt.Confidently, Elijah walked to the door and pulled it open. "Elijah?" Dr Hill's brow furrowed as he stared at him."I was just leaving." He said, and walked past him."Wait, Eli---"He stopped when he spotted Kingston writhing in pain from the corner of his eyes. "Oh shit!" He sighed, rushing over to his side.Elijah walked straight past the guards who were all gathered together, as opposed to earlier, when they were spread apart. He caught Howie's eyes, and the big man quickly put his head down. Elijah chuckled, waving him goodbye.Back in the lobby, he
