'Keep going kid. You're almost there'"20, 21, 22, 2----"'What are you doing?''Counting the floors I've passed''Why. What's the point in that?''Well just to know the number of floors altogether''I just told you, there are 25 floors altogether''Well..... there's no harm in been sure''......'Some time later.....'There, that's the last door'Tisane arrived at an elevator door which was located at top of the tunnel which had extended into a roof made of transparent glass.'Okay how do I open the door?' Tisane asked after pushing and trying to pry open the door with his hands.'Jump on one of those ropes and face the door''Why?''Just do it'Tisane obeyed as he hopped and grabbed one of the four huge metal rods as he stared at the elevator door.'Ok what now?''Just stare at the door and don't blink''Don't blink?' Tisane had a confused look on his face.'Yes don't blink. Trust me'After a minute, Tisane's eyes were beginning to become itchy.'Hey inner voice how long should I ke
'So you're saying I should fight them?' Tisane asked.'Of course. Because from the way I see it, they won't just stand aside and let you walk into the CEO office. Though I'll admit if you had met these guys before today, they would have torn you to pieces''What?!' Tisane's eyes widened. 'They are that strong?''Yep. I told you before. They are not your average humans''What do you mean by that? What are they? Aliens?''No. Mutants''What...mutants....like super powered humans?''You can put it like that''Woah...they actually exist?!''What do you think? The universe is big kid. There are a lot of things you can never imagine that exist''So if they are so powerful, how do you think I can beat them?' Tisane asked incredulously.'Hello! Wake up dumbo. Do you think you actually got here because you're normal?''Wait' Tisane felt like he was on a rollercoaster ride. 'You mean I actually have powers too?!''Focus kid. Now is not the time to be on cloud nine. All you have to know right no
"How dare you?!" Sabrina roared with murderous intent."That's it kid. You asked for it!" Jerry started walking towards Tisane as he eyes spat out rage."No" Sabrina stopped Jerry's advance as she herself walked towards Tisane. "Leave him to me. When am through with him, he's gonna wish he was dead"Tisane felt his heart beat accelerate as he braced himself for a tough fight.'This is it kid. Don't hold back!' The voice reminded him immediately.Sabrina walked few steps in front of Tisane as she threw her right hand with an intent to slap him.Tisane saw the hand coming as he quickly caught it.'What?' Sabrina widened her eyes for a moment, until she became infuriated."You still dare?!" She threw her left hand with an intent to punch Tisane.Tisane saw the punch coming as he quickly caught it with his palm. All this while, Tisane was on full alert and watching out for Sabrina's weapon."Argh!" Sabrina was not yet done as she threw her right leg at him. But this time Tisane reacted fa
"I have never met such a shameless guy!" Sabrina said in anger."And stupid too!" Jerry supported."Kid when am through with you, you'll regret ever being so insolent!" Matthew said through gritted teeth."Oh yeah?" Tisane glared threateningly. "Well come on then! Am not scared of you""You should be!" Matthew roared as he dashed forward._'Stay focused Tisane, he's strong'_ the voice warned._'Yeah I get that'_ Tisane replied before he realized something._'Hey did you just call me by my name?'__'Yeah'__'But I don't know yours'__'So?'__'That's not fair!'_Matthew arrived before Tisane instantly as he threw his fist forward.Tisane saw the fist coming as he prepared to intercept it until.....~Swish~_'What?!'_ Tisane saw Matthew's fist vanish instantly as it came from an unexpected direction straight to his left rib cage._~Pow~_The unexpected punch was quite unnerving as it threw Tisane off balance.Matthew followed up with three more punches all of which landed on Tisane's ung
"I don't know how you do it kid but you have begun to push us to the point where we have no choice but to kill you" Matthew stated as his voice became sharp."What are we still waiting for?" Sabrina was already twitching in anger."Let's kill him!"Tisane was sick and tired of exchanging words with these buffoons as he dashed forward suddenly.Matthew was shocked as his eyebrows went up so high.'He's attacking?!'Tisane vanished as he arrived before Matthew.'What?!' Matthew and Sabrina were dumbfounded as they began looking around."Behind you!" Melissa screamed.Matthew quickly spun around and attacked instantly.'Think you can ambush me?!''Think aga---' his fist only hit the air as he saw no one behind him except Sabrina whose eyes and mouth were wide open.From the look on her face, Matthew knew he was in trouble.'Be---behind me?' He quickly spun around again not wasting more than three seconds from the first time he spun around. An evidence of his swift reflexes.But it was to
Matthew listened to Tisane as they conversed. And he was beset mainly with the feeling of disappointment when he discovered that the boy standing before him was nothing but a naive idiot with a ridiculous plan.Seriously, who would think that entering the company where you were supposedly hired and beating up some workers and the security guards and then barging into the CEO's office to apologize is actually a plan that would work out?He totally reevaluated his opinion of Tisane by concluding that he was not an assassin or a determined criminal but a fool on a suicide mission.As he came to this conclusion, he totally lost interest in Tisane.All that was on his mind was to put Tisane down and hand him over to the security.And he was about to do just that when Sabrina attacked suddenly.Well he didn't have any problem with that because he had lost interest in Tisane already, so he didn't mind if Tisane lived or died.In mutant school, they were made to understand that the life of
Matthew was beginning to waver in his beliefs when he watched as his crew battled Tisane.Even he would find it very difficult to go against them at once.Yet Tisane was actually standing in close combat proximity with the three of them and held his ground.No....Matthew's eyes began to quake as his body trembled.We were wrong.I.....I was wrong.It can't be.It can't be!Matthew found himself shivering in fear as he couldn't bring himself to accept that Tisane was actually a......was a.....Mutant.The thought alone was too scary to consider.It would be better if Tisane was a human whom just possess the strength of a mutant.That would only put Tisane in the level of a basic mutant and no more than that.And basic mutant power was just the first stage of power that a mutant can exhibit.There were many more levels of power to a mutant that makes them truly terrifying.Because apart from the raw talent that separates mutants from humans, another major difference between mutants and
'Please dude I need your help' Tisane pleaded.'Oh really? I thought you've become so strong that superman and the hulk combined got nothing on you!' the voiced exclaimed in annoyance.'Hey you don't have to be so angry!' Tisane retorted.'Am the one who's getting beat up you know''Exactly!' The voice was still angry.'You keep getting beat up because you keep losing focus kid''Did you really think that the level of strength that you exhibited against Jerry and the ladies was all there was to a mutant's power?''What do you mean?' Tisane asked with wide eyes.'The level of strength that you're displaying now is just the basics of a mutant's power. First stage if you'll call it''But the level of strength he's displaying is the next stage which is also known as the 'channeling' the voice referred to Matthew.'The channeling......of what?''Of your mutant power dummy!''Am I not already channeling my mutant power?' Tisane asked confusedly.'Hmph. If you were truly channeling your muta
