To be able to bend a knife so easily, and to do that without a hint of fear, it was clear that the man who had appeared out of nowhere was far from normal. Every fiber of Gil’s being was telling him that the stranger was dangerous. His appearance had been something outside his expectation, so it had taken him a moment to understand what the other wanted from him.
‘Underdogs… shit, Bowden warned us that there was a good chance that they might come! But why would they
Blood was dripping from Gil's face, yet he garnered no sympathy from those present. After repeated slaps from Kirk, the teenager’s face was guaranteed to end up scarred. The Altered had stayed in his partial transformation state, yet the two females could see that he was clearly upset.This was the first time either one of them had ever seen this man, so why weren’t quite sure why. Eventually, Kirk let go of Gil who had refused to say anything. The teenager ha
A minute had passed, and no matter how much the teenager shook his mother, she refused to wake up. He helplessly looked at her colleague, but the young university student didn’t know what to do either. She helplessly offered to call her an ambulance.Gary knew that with the colour gang war still going on neither the police force nor ambulances, taxis or anything else would be able to enter this area. Left with no other choice, the teenager took it upon himself to take her to the hospital.He didn’t hesitate to use Charging Heart to get an extra boost. As long as he could get there even a second faster he didn’t care how much Energy he would have to spend. However, there was barely any need for him to use the skill. His hearing allowed him to hear his mother’s heartbeat continuously weakening and slowing down, further increasing his Heart rate to the point he entered his partial transformation state.
Hearing the doctor say those words, for a second it seemed like everything around him had gone quiet. Gary was looking at the adult in front of him, yet at the same time, his eyes weren’t focused. The words ‘bad news’ just constantly rang in his head again and again, drowning out the noise around him.It felt as if someone had submerged him underwater, making him unable to breathe. This was because the thoughts he just had moments ago, could very well become a reality.
After telling Amy to wait in her seat, Gary quickly headed over to Kai. The teenager hadn’t been sure that the other would actually come through, since his only reply had been [I’ll see what I can do]. His upperclassman wasn’t a magical wish granting genie after all and with what had happened in Slough, it wouldn’t have surprised him if he might have been occupied with something else.Seeing him come through the door, especially with someone who looked older than th
Living in a Tier-3 town, crime was quite rampant and frequent. The police force was limited in these areas, budgets were low compared to the higher-tier cities, and there was overall less control from the gangs in the first place.However, Slough could still have been considered as a moderate town to live in. The Underdogs had been a threatening force in the area. Because of this, the police would usually just have to deal with small disputes between the colour gang
Raven knew that his brother had a tendency to act reckless and often do stupid things since he wasn’t afraid of any consequences due to his older brother’s position. However, he was also someone who knew the importance of tarnishing the Grey Elephant gang’s name.His phone was supposed to be kept on him at all times in case they were to be called for an important matter like right now. What’s more, Raven had informed Hawk beforehand and had even stressed the i
Sin was still standing about a meter and half away from the two colour gang leaders. At first they believed that they were simply sweating due to nerves. Now, though, they could tell that their bodies were actually feeling hot due to the immense heat radiating off from Sin.‘How can someone produce so much heat? If I look at his feet it looks like the ground is being seared a little… is that smoke?’ Riv noticed. ‘It must be his Alt
Hearing what Sin was currently offering, all of the members couldn’t help but excitedly talk amongst themselves about it. They couldn’t believe that a King was actually offering something so valuable to them. However, the look on Brandon's face didn’t look to be nearly as pleased as that of his gang members. He looked at the strange syringe and the liquid moving inside.‘I’ve never heard of someone becoming an Altered just through a simple injection. Is this something that the Kings have developed? He must be planning to use us as lab rats, but I can’t exactly decline either’“Thank you! With this great gift we will definitely give you the answers you are looking for!” Brandon promised, as he grabbed the box with both hands, accepting it. With that, Sin left, but his short stay would forever be burnt into each one of their heads.All of them could
