CHAPTER 22: MUTANT HYBRID Marko pulled back sharply and looked at the screen before him. [Analyzing Threat] Ted kicked him out of the way before the huge monster could bite his head off. "Where the heck are you looking at DUMBSHIT!?" Ted called forward his red flames and started hurling them at the monster that swatted it away like puffs of smoke. Ted rolled his eyes and said. "I guess I'll turn up the heat then!" "Stop it you idiot, do you want to burn down the forest?" Quint barked at him. "I will beat it myself, just stay back and watch." As they lashed out insults and tried to fight off the monster Marko tried to think and relay his thoughts. He proceeded to ask his system on how to handle the newfound threat. "System what is this thing?" He screamed. The response was swift... [Analysis Complete] [Generating Information] [Mid - Grade Terror Detected] [An Error Has Been Detected] "What!" Marko's eyes sprung open. "That's a new one." [The Species Has Dorma

CHAPTER 24: ENERGY CONTROL It was just a few hours ahead of afternoon and none of them had eaten, Marko Rivers had a long gap between him and the others. At first he wanted to slow down because he felt he was getting much help from the system but that was when it occured to him. The goal of the training was to fully use your gifts while circulating your energy so that it would not run out. Manually it would he hard but his system helped him with most of it. Because his gift had a lot of positive attributes to it did not mean he would have to lower himself just bevause he wanted to make anyone feel better. The more he ran the more it occured to him that this was his own race he ran. But he never once had any really friend, he was foolish to think he did. So he determined within his mind that he would not stop running his race again, no matter what. Unknown to him, though the gap between him and the others were far apart; his actions caused some chemical reaching o

CHAPTER 26: #1 & #2 (1) Valtor Rose approached the building with them following close behind. He could see a sign hung up reading "PERMS ORPHANAGE". Marko and Ted stood side by side to each other, their eyes fixated on the huge wooden door that carried a number of cobwebs and scratches. They could all feel the fear, it had never been once recorded that terrors worked as an organized group. What could that possibly mean? "Marko, Ted welldone in sparking that wonderful chemical reaction. It's proof that you despite being in Cobalt Blue the weakest ranked house, you can easily link up the perfect attacks without communication." Valtor spoke with certainty. "I want the rest of you to recreate that, this is not a drill. This place clearly reeks of human flesh as it seems some of these monsters are humans. Also... There is a very high possibility that there's a high terror in there." They all had puzzled looks except the uncanny duo that were both lost in thoug

CHAPTER 28: THE BEAST CALLED NUMBER ONE Ted ignited his red flame and screamed at the top of his voice. "Flaming fist!! Larva Burn." The monster labeled as number one pulled back and blocked the flames with a simple gesture. "Haha, then I have to turn up the heat even more." Marko watched Ted from behind in amazement. "Ted really has gotten stronger. You sure you do not want me to help?" Ted laughed with pride resonating in his voice. "Nah! Just watch me show you how it's done!" Marko remembered how egoistic Ted was, that was where his true strength came from. His pride! Ted used his rocket feet to increase his attack speed and close in on number one. "Eat my flames ugly!" There was an explosion of fire as smoke as the mutant threw his fist for his head. "Whoa!" Ted yelled as he pulled back sharply. "Damn, he survived my strongest attack up close? This guy is really something." He put a

CHAPTER 30: THE FLAME EMPEROR AWAKENING Ted's flame burned even redder than before, the smoke that sizzled from it were so massive that his body itself was beginning to get burned up in that flame. "Die!" Number one blocked it with his right fist only to have it blown off instantly. "You are stronger insect but the gap between us is still far as the heaven from earth." WHAM! "FLAMING KICK!" Ted drove his lit leg into the mutant's side slicing him in half. "I have to get damn stronger than you or that brat, so quit yapping already. Come at me like you mean it!" Number one smiled and regrew his body part almost instantaneously and junped back to put some distance between them when Ted closed the gap in an instant and blew his head off his body. BOOM! Number one regrew his head and jumped back. "My regeneration has been slowed, even with the powers of my brethren in me I can't seem to keep up with him." Ted came to a halt and screamed. "Quit runnin
