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
The battle had just begun and Thomas was found in the middle of it with the rest of his friends. The sand snakes were not the major threat at the moment, what they were up against was the alien reptiles.The sand snakes fought rapidly. They didn’t care whether it was runners or aliens; all they cared about was defending their territory from anything that ventured in. They were ready to strike even to their detriment. Thomas also fought with all he’s got, he used the opportunity to explore the rest of his abilities and unexpectedly he was able to both manipulate fire like Felix, air like Sebastian and many others. As the battle range on the bodies of the alien reptiles fell but despite how many of them were killed they were still undefeatable because of their number. The sand snakes were also relentless but Thomas wouldn’t say the same about himself and his colleagues.The more they fought the wearier they got and when Kelvin noticed that their strengths were failing he alarmed them t
“Thomas! Thomas!” he heard someone yell his name as his eyes fluttered open. His head was still aching badly as he looked around only to realize that he was locked up in a large glass box with many wires connected to his body. “Thomas!” he heard his name again as he looked left and spotted Elise chained to an iron chair. The palms of her hands were covered with an iron seal and standing beside her were two huge men. “Elise,” he whispered in a weak tone.“Thomas you have to stay awake,” She said aloud and one of the guards hit her hard on the face.“Elise,” Thomas exclaimed, drifting his eyes to the man who had hit her. “I promise if you lay a hand on her again I’ll fry you from the inside,” he threatened, struggling to get the wires off his body but all his attempts failed since the pain was unbearable.“Oh…. Thomas,” he heard a sly tone coming from ahead as he looked forward to see a young man standing outside the enclosed glass with his eyes on him. He recognized the man. It was th
“What have you done to him, what have you done to my friends!” Thomas yelled angrily.Howard laughed wickedly again and gently he looked at Thomas. “Your friends will be fine for now but considering what is in you, it is far more dangerous than both flames combined. You left without me giving you the final touch that is the reason why you have not been able to operate in the fullest of your capacity. I will give that gift to you after I have fashioned you to obey all my commands and when I do, you will be well equipped to kill both the king and the so called flame monger,”“You freak what do you intend to do,” Elise exclaimed as Howard turned to one of his subjects approaching with a case in his hands. When his subject arrived by his side he opened the case and inside of it were two little glass tubes containing strange colored liquids. Howard lifted a tube out of the briefcase. “This one will make me an ever obedient soldier and the other one in there will activate the power already
Felix and Thomas clashed in battle as Thomas sent him bowling over to the floor. Not for once had Felix felt that much energy from anyone. Ever since he gained the power of the phoenix and that of the Dragon flame not for once has he felt an energy that could discomfit him so for the first time in a long time he was afraid. He pushed his weight off the floor as he lifted himself to his feet. “Thomas you have to stop right now,” he said but once more Thomas came against him with a greater force than before. He was lucky to avoid the second and third strike but the fourth sent his back smashing against the floor. At this rate he knew that he wouldn’t last any longer so he decided to defend himself. Of course Thomas moved with the speed of lightning and there was no telling how far his strength could go but Felix was sure of his own strength. He knew from his own description that if his flame is unleashed to its fullest capacity Thomas might not be able to survive it.That moment he re
Felix had just counted ten in his mind and he opened his eyes to see the most unbelievable sight. It was Thomas, he was just twenty feet away in the midst of the flame, his body was ravaging with a very great current with a strong force field protecting him. Thomas’s eyes were glowing white like a deity in its most elevated state."Thomas, you have to give up now, don't make me go further than this else you will die," Felix pleaded, his eyes still up in flames. He watched the energy from Thomas’s body grow so large that it filled the entire force field surrounding him and then Thomas spoke up."Your flame has no power over me. I already have the power of every runner in these dimensions. The ones you've seen, those you haven't seen and even those your mind can't comprehend," Thomas replied."This is not about who is most powerful. This is about saving lives. Howard put something in you, it is overpowering you and you must fight back else you will lose all that you have worked so hard t
Kelvin could not get his mind off his suspicion that Felix had killed Thomas and is mourning him in a spot inside the forest. He must be ignoring them as a result of the guilt of what he had done.“You two should stay calm, I am sure that Thomas is fine,” Klaus said to Elise and Kelvin who wouldn’t stop panicking while looking around like they were lost. “Seriously you two should take it easy,” he repeated.“Take it easy?” Kelvin said, turning to him furiously. “Should I remind you that if anything fatal happens to Thomas we are done? All our effort will be in vain. If any of us was to die, over time we can be replaced but if we lose Thomas we can never get anyone else like him; there can be just one last runner and if he is killed we will remain stuck here forever which means that the real world we have known and cherish will be gone forever.”While Kelvin kept speaking Elise called out to them. “Guys,” she called as they all turned to her. “I think I hear something,” she was precise
Sebastian and Kelvin were startled when they witnessed what had happened. None of them were able to comprehend how Silas was able to do that. They both wondered how he got that much power.Kelvin thought it was the linen but the linen alone was not powerful enough to hold Thomas down. The linen was only able to amplify the powers in the person who wields it.‘Remember who you are Thomas; you are the last runner, the only one who can save us from our current woes. You are Thomas Celso,’ those words resounded in Thomas’s mind as he yelled.“No,” he tried to fight back but Silas's telepathy knocked him deeper into his thoughts so that he was completely lost from his current environment. Drenched in his vision, Thomas found himself in a desert. The clouds were white, including the sands. He looked around and there was no telling how far the desert went.“What is this place?” Thomas questioned himself. Still contemplating he heard someone call his name from behind and when he looked he real
