I walked closer to him and I whispered some words into Darius' ears. He looked at me and laughed out loud. Many of the students wondered what I had told them. " You? A grim reaper?" he said pointing his hands at me. Zack looked at me and saw I was limping again. " Really? Are you now faking it?" he walked closer to me and kicked away my staff.I crashed on the floor pretending to be crippled. I looked around and saw the students were beginning to gather. Just exactly what I wanted. " If you are a grim reaper I am the devil," Darius said with a smirk I looked around and I saw Grace walking side by side with Stephan. I knew I needed to make an impression. I wasn't just anybody to be toyed with and also showed Stephan I was going to get Grace back. I stood up to my feet and Jonas looked at me surprised. I was sure he also thought I was crippled since he got his brain wiped. " So I guess you really can walk." Zaco smiled He came at me and I landed him a super kick. He held his nose a
" What? How come I am able to see the fire demon?" I was lost in my own thoughts. The man smiled and walked up to me, and for some reason I find his face familiar. "I heard my son do this to you," he said with a sorry look on his face. For a moment, I felt lost. It wasn't only Zaco or Darius who had my leg broken. My mind went back to Stephan, and my brain replayed how he had snapped Jonas's neck. My eyes etched me, and I felt my throat a little sour. Tears flooded my face as I remembered I wouldn't be seeing my friend again. Jonas is gone. I remember seeing the blue life leave his body, but I was so emotional that I don't know where it went since I don't have the power of a grim reaper anymore. I wondered how I was able to see the demon in front of me. I looked beside the man smiling at me, and I saw Zaco. "What do you want here?" I shouted in anger. The nurses looked at me and asked me to calm down, asking Zaco to leave the room. "Do I know you?" Zaco's father asked, "For some re
"Your parents had a substance kept inside of you. something that gives you immense power when you need it. Have you ever wondered why you are strong all of a sudden and why you get weak after feeling that power?" My other self looked at me in the mirror. Now I understand why I was able to heal and walk. "How do you know all of this?" I asked back. "The moment I was in your body, we became one. I could feel your pain, and it is only natural that you feel mine." "What do I call you?" I asked, still fixing my gaze on the mirror before me. "Whatever you would like me to be," he replied. "Can I call you a mirror?" I askedMirror nodded. "I need to find out more about my parents and why they were killed. For some reason, I think I know who did it." I looked in the mirror. "Yes, in body and flesh, you might know who did it, but the spirit in charge of the body is something you should be worried about. We are not strong enough to take on it alone." Mirror replied " Why? You just told me I
I ran towards the record room and kicked the door open. " What do you want?" a stern voice asked looking at me. I held onto a chair trying to breathe. " Can I see?" I asked still gasping for a breather " See what?" The stern voice asked again I tilt my head up gently to look at his face " There was a murder on the football field last few months. Do you have it on record?" I asked staring at the big monitor right in front of me. " Do you think if there were such vicious activities I wouldn't see it?" The bald man replied shooting lasers out of his eyes. I felt a little Intermediate by him. He was exceptionally tall and he was muscular. " Can you at least check?" I pressed further He grabbed his mouse " What day would that be?" he asked without looking at my face.I scratched my head gently trying to remember which day it was. " Don't tell me you don't know the date you are talking about. I guess the person is of no value to you. [ MARCH 12TH, 2013 ] Mirror said gently coming to my
I ran as fast as I could, my heart pounding in my chest. The once serene environment is now twisted into a nightmarish landscape. Trees with gnarled branches reached out like skeletal fingers, and the flowers wilted and turned black as if touched by death itself. "Mirror, what's happening?" I gasped between breaths as I sprinted down the path."They found us." Mirror's voice echoed in his mind, urgency tinged with fear.My mind raced. Who had found us? Why were they being chased? Questions swirled in my head, but there was no time to dwell on them. I had to focus on escaping.I ran toward the light and found myself sweating profusely. I got up and went to have my bath. "What was that about?" I asked Mirror. [I believe they are on to you; you need your powers back.] Mirror repliedI shrieked as I washed myself. I looked at my stomach, and I saw I was bruised. My dream was beginning to get real. Something has never happened to me before. Walking out of the bathroom, I looked at the mi
My vision became blurry and I felt like leaving my body as blood flowed from my wound. I looked at the fire demon and I saw a sinister smile on his face. The restaurant door flanged open and I saw Derrick and his minions enter the room and the fight began. I fell to the floor bleeding out while Evelyn ran to my side and had her hand pressed on the wound. "Max, stay with me," she shouted hitting me in the face. I felt this was it, I was finally going to meet my parents but then I remembered their spirit was still trapped. I needed to free them if I want to ever see them again. Zoey ran to my side and looked at me. " You never cease to amaze me, Max Kraus. You have no powers and yet you are bold enough to take on a level 2 fire demon." She said looking at me Zoey placed her hands on my wound and tried I heal me but it wasn't working. " He is not heating!" She shouted to Derrick who immediately left Gilbert with the fire demon. " Kid, get me some blanket to help with the wound." Derek
As Zoey tried to wipe Evelyn's memories, she felt a cold hand on her shoulder. She turned around to see me, my eyes glowing blue, staring at her. Evelyn took advantage of the distraction and ran away, confused and scared."Max, what's going on?" Zoey asked, surprised by my sudden movement."I...I don't know," I replied, my voice weak. "I feel...different."Derek and Gilbert approached me, concerned. "What do you mean, Max?" Derek asked.I tried to stand up, but my body felt heavy and cold. "I feel like...I'm not alone in my body anymore."Aurora's spirit appeared beside me, her eyes fixed on me. "You've fused with the earth boy, Max," Apollo said, appearing beside her. "You need to learn to control your new powers."I looked at my hands, and they began to glow with a blue light. "What's happening to me?"Aurora's spirit merged with my body, and I felt a surge of energy and strength. "You're becoming a powerful being, Max," Apollo said. "But you need to learn to control your powers bef
I entered my dorm feeling fulfilled. I had my powers back, and I was back to my kickass form. I heard a message tone, and I knew it was the alert from the last mission I had finished. I remember my promise to Derek to check by the gym house. I knew I had to be trained in combat and how to master my powers. The thought of finding my parents killer came back into my mind. I knew I must not be alone, and I needed to carry my friends along. I smiled to see the look on Evelyn's face, and I remembered my promise to her. The. thought of being preyed on by the Elite was all I could think about, but I would be there to protect her. I needed someone by my side. Grace? I knew I couldn't have Grace as my girlfriend with Stephan away from her. But what was his deal? Why does he hate me so much? Was it because I was dating his supposed girlfriend, or was there more to what was happening? I was lost. I was lost in my own thoughts.None of the students want to be my friends, not after what happened t
