They took the elevator as they made their way down to the first floor. "Don't worry, I don't think there is any trap down here," Ben told them as he walked out of the elevator and they called him. He led them to a small room where the portal was and when they arrived there he turned to Kelvin. "This is the place,""I know," Kelvin furrowed his eyebrows with his fixed gaze at the forest which was beyond the portal. "Come on,"They all made their way through the portal. To Thomas it was like a different world. A world buried beneath the ground. It was a realm to him."Are the skies always humid down here?" Vicky asked while hovering her eyes around."That's not what I'm feeling. All I know is that it's really cold down here," Elvis said while rubbing his palm on his arms."Ben," Kelvin said and Thomas and the others turned to see him behind. "What is wrong?" "I think you should all head on, I have to retrieve my sceptre from the wizard," Ben answered."You are a shape shifter so would

"Thomas, Thomas," He heard his name as he opened his eyes to see that it was Ben. "Come on, wake the others, it's time," Ben said then moved towards the second tree ahead as he looked from the side and while peeping Thomas awoke the others.Together they all joined Ben who was staring towards the door of the cabin."I don't see anyone," Felix said but Ben immediately shushed him."You should all stay quiet because at this time he hears even silent words," Ben whispered, taking back his post.Thomas watched keenly as the cabin door opened and an old man dressed in grey linen walked out. His hair and beard was long and white and he moved with the aid of his staff."That's just an old man who lives isolated," Elise said."Don't be deceived by his age, he could be more agile than you think," Felix answered."Can you all just stop talking," Ben said in a whisper.Thomas watched the man straighten up as his eyes dazzled around the forest. His wrinkled face could be seen under the strange s

Thomas and Felix met Elise at the backyards and they ventured forward into the unknown with the mouse wrapped In Thomas's palm.Thomas was certain that the sorcerer was on their trail and knowing that they would get lost if they continued in that manner he stopped them with swift instruction that they hide behind a fallen tree which they all did."What are you up to Thomas, we have to get out of here," Elise whispered and Immediately after her statement they heard crunchy sounds as they all bent lower."He is here," Felix whispered as Thomas Shushed him. "Thomas…" The sorcerer called aloud. "You better come out now. Remember that we are close friends. You saved me and you stood by me vehemently even despite Kelvin's warning," he said.Thomas, Elise and Felix used that opportunity to contemplate on what they have to do to stop the sorcerer and after a whole Thomas came up with an idea."We might get transformed into another freaky creature if we come up against him face to face so I t
The last runner : Academy of magic Chapter seventeen : The predators beneath the ice sea
Thomas and the rest of them journeyed through the night until sunrise the next morning and by noon they arrived by a cliff."Are you sure we are on track?" Felix said to Thomas who was by a tree behind. He took out the map as he stared for a while then lifted his gaze to her and said. "I'm sure we are on the right path. We are supposed to move forward," he rolled the map close and walked to her side by the cliff."Are you saying we should climb down the cliff because if you are that is a crazy idea. This over hundred feet downwards," Felix said to him but Thomas was not mostly concerned about the height rather he was more concerned about how they would be able to carry Ben along,"This is impossible Thomas," Elise said."What if you teleport us downwards through a portal?" Felix said and Elise shook her head in disagreement.She told him about Kelvin's warning, if she caused them to go through a portal it would take them somewhere else instead.While reasoning with him Thomas got an i

That evening when the moon came up, they were all ready to take their journey past the sea. To Thomas the sight of the sea was terrible even though it was iced. He never liked the idea either but they had no other choice.Before they forged ahead Thomas raised the small cage as he stared at the mouse and said. "Don't worry Silas, I got your back,""Come on, people," Ben called for them as they walked up to meet him before the sea."What did you say was the reason we were doing this again?" Felix asked."The mission. We have one major task and one minor task. The major task is to head on to the king's palace where we will find out how to return to our homes and the minor task is to turn Silas and Ben back to their real form," Thomas answered."Okay, thank you. I needed to ensure that we are right on track," He heaved a sigh and together they followed Ben.While walking Ben turned back to them and said. "You should all follow my lead, so that you don't step on a weak ice, and be sure to

Ben's tips threw a wave of fright over Thomas as he furrowed his eyebrows and said. "If that is the case how have you been able to survive here?""It's all thanks to my good friend who made me artificial ears as long as theirs, I'm sure that if we meet him he can equally help us," Ben answered.All this while they had been hiding behind a house so to avoid getting spotted while getting past the crowd Ben had their heads covered with a cloth and they moved out of their hiding place.The indigenes of the village were all busy with their fun affairs so Thomas and his friends were able to move freely until they arrived at Ben's friend's home.Ben knocked twice on the door and about to knock the third time the door opened up and a young man of little stature walked out.Thomas could literally see the shock on his face when he spotted them and about screaming Ben covered his mouth as he carried him inside and Thomas, Felix and Elise followed them in, gently shutting the door.Still strugglin
The last runner : Academy of magic Chapter twenty: the hidden portal
A journey under the ice sea to retrieve a magical linen hidden in a temple guided by a giant octopus?The task was even more terrifying to Thomas and the rest of them.While contemplating on the situation Steve glanced up to them and said. " Sorry I think I made a mistake, it's not a giant octopus rather its a giant jellyfish," "What?" Elise exclaimed. Now it was even more terrifying than they thought a natural Jellyfish could kill a human in minutes but this time it's a Jellyfish forty times larger than a human?"We can't do this?" Thomas said as he turned around."What is a Jellyfish?" Ben asked because he was an alien however Felix told him what it was and the dangers of getting stung with its tentacles.His explanation was freaking fierce but they had no other choice. It was either they did it or they lost Silas for good."Don't you have another question rather than this one?" James asked Steve but he shook his head."I would not have given them the quest if not that the linen is

"Do you think we are at the right place?" Felix asked."Yes, I am sure that the portal must be somewhere around here," Ben answered.Thomas gazed around with them and while looking he spotted a wooden table which was on top of a rectangular shaped rug and having suspicion about the setting he called for the attention of the others as he asked Ben to assist him while they removed the table from its place."Sure," Ben said as they both carried the wooden table out and Thomas rolled the rug away only for them to see a wooden cover."Claver again Thomas, this is clever!" Felix exclaimed softly."Let's quit the excitement until we ensure that this is not just a normal underground," Thomas said. He opened the coverage then moved down and they followed him. It was more of a tunnel than an underground and the place was covered in cobwebs so Thomas instructed Felix to clear out the webs and most creepy insects with his fire power which he did but carefully so as not to cause any havoc.Felix l

Later in the day, when he had slept to his satisfaction he walked out of his room. Stretching himself he went downstairs in search of his father and when he was halfway he heard chattering sounds coming from outside the house.He quickly opened the door and right on his doorstep was a crowd of reporters.He looked around the compound only to realize that everything was fixed."It's him, It is Thomas Celso," One of the reporters alarmed the others as they all left Tony and headed toward him instead."Can you please tell us what your role in the just resolved case was. We all heard that you played the role of Clark Kent…" While the reporters went on Tony walked up to Thomas as he carried him inside then shut the door."Dad, what's going on?" Thomas asked."Don't ask me that. I don't how it happened but you and your friends are all over the news now. Especially you, Thomas," Tony replied."What about the stuff we were supposed to fix, who did the work?" "The news about you got to the ear

Chapter one hundred and eighty three: Game over
"How do we stop Xander?" Andy said to Dylan who was now determined to help him and Thomas."I will take you to Xander as a captive. We have to play the game perfectly. Like you said Tony and his children are in a fight with Xander and I know if we don't get there in time someone might be killed. When we arrive, you have to give Thomas an eye signal to refrain from any violent action. When that is done I will make Xander bring you all to this place where we will chain you up to that rod," Dylan said as he pointed at a large iron rod a few feet away. "What if Xander refuses to bring us here?" Andy said."I will do my best but if Thomas is as smart as you said he is then he will pick up the signal. I am sure that Xander loves a contest. When you are chained up I must still act like I am on their side. I will offload their guns and your friend Thomas has to kindle a fire in between us. I have to test their limits, I have to know if they are truly going to kill me when I disagree to follow

Chapter one hundred and eighty two: alliance behind the scene
Some minutes earlier….During the time Thomas’s elder brother and Father were approaching the guards who held Thomas down on his knees, Andy took Emily and Laura around the shadows as he instructed them to lay low until the time to act comes up."I will be back, take care of yourselves," Andy said before running off to the site where he intended to jeopardize the system connections that Xander and his colleagues had put together for the experiment.Upon his arrival he spotted Dylan waiting just a few feet from the portal that they intended to open."You made it," Andy said as soon as he enclosed on Dylan."I received your text message and after the little explanation you gave me I think I would like to know more… So tell me, what did your friend Thomas see?" Dylan asked."Like I said before, something happened the night you and your colleagues came to capture Thomas’s parents. Last night he was struck down by lightning and he was taken to a different dimension where he saw many things

Chapter one hundred and eighty one: Mistrust and the Deadly triangle
It was a perfect triangle. The three colleagues had finally turned against each other. They knew that Thomas had planted a seed of mistrust among them but no matter what they perceived they couldn’t put the gun down. The guards who were present were also unable to do anything since Dylan had a gun pointed at Xander."Smart act Thomas," Xander said. "Even though you are tied up you still manages to play with our minds," "You think this is a joke?" Thomas said with a serious face. "This is serious and with time you will know that I am trying to save you all. The fact you have those guns pointed at each other shows that there is a presence of good even in the midst of your dark thoughts," Thomas responded with a serious face."Even after causing this havoc you are still filling us with your flattery," Xander said."Put the gun down Xander," Dylan said to him. "The kid is right, I should have realized this soon. This was a terrible idea," "So you are the unstable person among us," Edward

"Everything will be fine Ashley, I promise," Thomas encouraged her."You have to stop this. Edward please… If you have a heart, let the child go. Please," Tony pleaded but Edward hardened his heart."The moon is already up, let's go," Edward said."So finally this is your true nature," Thomas said when they were about to leave and they stopped then looked back at him."My father trusted you and we his children received you in like we will receive our own uncle. You watched us grow. You ate with us and even played soccer a few times with me and my elder brother. How did you become this person?" Thomas said, furrowing his eyebrows as he stared at Edward like a complete stranger."This is where you are getting it wrong. Everything you saw me do and you thought about was never because I loved any of you or even Tony. I was close to you all because then we saw Tony as a brother. Those love was because of sacrifice and without it you all mean nothing to me. You are all equal with a lamb and

"Xander, we have to commence with the experiment," Edward said to Xander who was still attempting to know what Thomas was hiding, however the more he delved into the conversation the more curious Xander became.It was Thomas’s game, he now wields Xander’s heart in his hand while he drives him through a maze which only he knows the exit.Thomas was perplexed but deep down he was enjoying the moment however that was not until Edward made that comment. The hallucination he had put Xander into was about to be wrecked."Don't you dare interrupt me again. We still have time whereas Dylan isn't here with the tech," Xander said, agitated by Edward's fear."We both know that this experiment can be carried out with or without the use of the tech," Edward answered but ignoring him Xander turned to Thomas again."Xander…" Edward groaned once more and hearing him Xander approached him fiercely and a quarrel burst out among them.While Xander and Edward were in dispute Matt and Tony snuck out of hid

The chain was locked with a key. The place was dark and if not that he was with a torchlight it would have been difficult to know who they were."Good evening sir," Andy said the moment he spotted Tony."What is good about the evening, whereas who are you?" Laura said rudely.Andy immediately flashed the torchlight on his face. "I am a good friend of your brother Thomas and I am here to rescue you," Andy replied."You made the wrong choice to come here because you will end up like us," Laura spoke up again."That is enough, I think I remember him," Emily interrupted Laura. "Please forgive her rude attitude," "There is no need for the apology ma'am. Thomas has told me how he and his sister constantly run into conflict. If I am being truthful, I expected worse," Andy said and Matt immediately giggled, placing his clenched fist against his mouth in order to prevent the sound from coming out louder although they all heard him giggle. Andy’s comment left Laura stunned and short of words t

After several attempts they pinned him to the floor. One of them was about to strike him but Xander stopped him with a hand signal."Don't do it, he is only a minor," Xander said to the guard then looked at Thomas again. "Hmm… What were you thinking to come here on your own, Thomas? Did you think that you could beat us and rescue your sister?" "Leave her alone you freak! She is only ten years old," Thomas said angrily.Xander laughed. "It's perfect. Haven't you heard that the most little ones have the purest blood," He said and hearing him Thomas groaned, struggling to set himself free from their grip."You should be glad because your sister will be able to serve a higher purpose," "If you lay your hand on her I'll kill you!" Thomas exclaimed. "Thomas," Ashley called with tears in her eyes.When Thomas saw her tears his blood steamed within him.He drifted his gaze up to Edwards face. The moment he saw the lack of piety in his eyes he was immediately disgusted. He couldn’t imagine t

"What is on your mind?" Andy interrupts Thomas's thought."Nothing," he sprained his eyebrows slightly then looked forward again."I can see through you Thomas. You are scared. You are scared that you might fail everyone," Andy hesitated. "You have nothing to fear because you will save them and when you do you will be rewarded and known as a hero. Your fame will spread so wide that you will forget your sorrow at this Moment,""No," Thomas interrupted. "No one should know about this. When it's over, it is best we return to our normal life and forget that any of this ever happened,""Why will you say that?" Andy asked with his face wrinkled in curiosity."What do you think will happen when the world discovers a reality like this one? We live in a world of mixed races. A time where people's hearts are darkened with desire to do evil. If they find out that the multiverse is real then that will lead to many acts of madness,"Andy jerked immediately after Thomas’s words. "You are a very stra
