Alec was able to make it to where Roddy was in just a few minutes.Roddy was in the middle of the road, using his rod on anyone who tries to stop him. Even the cops could not get him as he uses his rod to electrocute anyone who tries to come close to him. Alec spotted some unconscious guys on the ground and he knew instantly that it was Roddy's doing. "I hope the medics are on their way! there are people who need medical help ASAP" Alec urgently relayed through the wireless earpiece fixed to his suit. "Hey, stop hurting people!" Alec yelled at Roddy from where he was standing. Roddy turned around to face Alec. He titled his head and let out a loud mocking laugh. "And who are you?" Roddy asked, jeering Alec. "I am the blaze" Alec answered sharply "And I'm telling you now that you've gotta stop hurting people""The blaze" Roddy laughed again "You sound so confident, is it because you're masked just like I am? You think you have the same power I have? Dude, you are not even as powe
In the chemistry lab, Jenny watched as Alec and Heidi worked together on a project. They were smiling and conversing quietly as they mixed chemicals."Wow" she said under her breath, carefully watching them "They make such a great team now, don't they?" She mumbled to no one in particular, then her eyes stayed focused on Alec. Sometimes, Jenny sees him as a regular guy, living a normal life. But other times, when he acts brave, she sees a superhero who stands up for the weak, even though he was once weak himself.Jeremy nudged Jenny's ribs "Hey, are you even listening to me at all?" Jenny refocused on Jeremy, flashing a smile."Yeah, yeah, I am"Jeremy could tell she was lying. Curious, he traced where her gaze had been and furrowed his brows. "Hey, come on, spill the beans" He looked straight into her eyes "Are you crushing on Alec?"Jenny burst into laughter, playfully hitting Jeremy's back "Jeremy! What are you even saying? That's ridiculous!"Just as Jeremy was about to respond
Roddy stood beneath the flickering street lamppost, his eyes gleaming with anticipation as he fed his rod with a surge of electricity. Maniacal laughter escaped his lips as sparks danced around the metallic device.With arms outstretched, he proclaimed, "I am Powerful! Unstoppable!"Alec materialized before him, his expression and shook his head "No, Roddy, you're not powerful. You're insane""Ah, the Blaze returns!" Roddy's laughter went louder than before "Twice in a day, how delightful!"Alec crossed his arms, shaking his head at the insanity of his adversary. "You're in desperate need of medical attention."Roddy's laughter intensified. "By the time I'm done with you, it will be you seeking that medical aattention."The rod crackled with electricity and Alec knew Roddy was going to use it on him, He quickly dodged the attack, his agile movements saving him from harm."Provocations, Alec! Provoke him and gain control!" Professor Smith's voice resonated in Alec's earpiece.Alec locke
Alec picked up the band from under his foot and examined it with a furrowed brow. "I'm not sure how to use this. I'm gonna need a little help to handle it correctly" he frowned. "Xander? This is where you come in" He blinked at the band "I need your help here"Roddy struggled to stand and retrieve his band from Alec. He attempted to punch Alec, but Alec effortlessly dodged the blow by tilting his head back. Alec then struck Roddy on the head, causing him to fall to the ground."Hey, Alec, listen" Prof Smith spoke up "Try to destroy that thing once and for all" Prof Smith stretched out his arm in gesticulation "Even If you manage to knock Roddy down, the rod can still be harmful, who knows, he might've programmed it to shock anyone who touches it at a specific time" Alec nodded in agreement, focused mentally on Xander and asked in a mumble; "Xander, can I destroy the band without going to the cave to search for some kind of strange minerals?""Yes, you can" Xander answered. Alec's a
Alec looked around the room, but couldn't find Roddy. Suddenly, he remembered that Roddy had left a few minutes ago."Ah, I'm gonna kill the guy!" Alec muttered in frustration.He clenched the electrifying rod in one hand and held onto the band with the other, determined to find Roddy."Hey Xander, I need to know where Roddy is, Give me some directions, ASAP" Alec requested.A red dot blinked on the right side of the transparent screen, followed by a zigzag line. Alec followed the line, leading him to one of the old rooms in the building.As soon as Alec entered the room, he was unexpectedly struck with a heavy stick by Roddy."Fuck!" Alec cursed out, feeling the pain from the hit. Reacting swiftly, he turned around and retaliated by smacking Roddy with the rod, knocking him down."Asshole!" Alec shouted, venting his frustration. "I've always wanted to knock you down to shut you up!"Alec squatted down to place Roddy's left thumb on the holographic screen, completing the final step.T
Heidi and Prof Smith strolled into one of the training rooms for a little private chat."Heidi, I can tell you're starting to develop feelings for him" Prof Smith stated."Falling for who?" Heidi inquired, pretending to be unaware.Prof Smith gave an exasperated eye roll. "Come on, let's cut the act and have this conversation. You're falling for the new kid, the superhuman."Heidi took a deep breath, her heart racing. "You're gonna tell me to kill these feelings, aren't you?""Heidi, he ain't your average Joe. He's a superhuman, and soon enough, everyone's gonna be after him. Your feelings could put you both in danger. Remember what happened with your ex..."Heidi closed her eyes tightly. "Don't bring him up, please.""I gotta make sure you understand the risks you and Alec will face if you let these feelings grow...""Prof Smith, this is different. It's me falling for Alec, not the other way around.""Yet" Prof Smith said firmly.Heidi narrowed her eyes at him, a mix of frustration a
A burly guy with a formidable chest and a stern expression appeared in front of Alec, attempting to intimidate him, but Alec had learnt not to get frightened at the sight of guys like him as he's fought a lot of guys much more stronger than the guy is. "Hey, little boy, what do you think you're doing with my date?" Even the tone of voice was so scary but Alec will not be daunted, he will always stand his ground. "I said, what the hell are you doing with her, huh?" He gestured to Jenny "My date!"Alec frowned at the guy and shot Jenny a quick questioning look. "Oh, she's just a friend. I didn't even know she had a..." The bulky guy shut him up by throwing a punch, but it barely fazed Alec. "Dude, what the hell?" Alec rubbed his face, checking for any signs of injury, but there was none. Jenny squinted at Alec, her eyes attempting to zoom in on his face for any signs of injury, but she couldn't find any.The guy extended his fist for another punch, and in order to conceal his powe
Jenny couldn't see the trailer barreling towards them, but Jeremy, who was up front, spotted it."Fuck" He quickly slammed the car into reverse, realizing the vehicle was zooming toward them in the wrong lane. "This vehicle shouldn't be on this lane!" he muttered, foot on the gas in reverse."We gotta do something, Jenny!" Alec yelled, catching Jenny off guard as she had no idea about the oncoming trailer."What do you mean?" she asked, her confusion evident."There's a trailer speeding towards us!" Alec urgently informed her.Jenny's grip on the steering wheel tightened, her knuckles turning white. Jeremy quickly pulled up beside her, driving parallel to her car. He glanced through his own car window, assessing the situation."I'm gonna turn around now," Jenny suggested, her voice filled with panic.Alec vigorously shook his head. "No way! That won't work. The trailer will still catch up to us and crush us. Plus, Drew's friends are also racing towards us. What if our cars collide?""
In the cafeteria filled with hums and laughter, Alec and Jeremy sat calmly, observing the activities as they ate together. "You see that girl with a flat ass?" Jeremy described, gesturing his head towards a girl laughing with one of the football players in the school. "Alec turned his head towards the direction Jeremy was gesturing to. "Yeah?" He took in her appearance "Was she one of the bullies?" "Yep" Jeremy answered, popping the 'p' in the word "That's Belinda." The name sounded familiar to Alec "The girl telling everyone that Kara still loves Milo?" "Exactly" Jeremy's reply was fast. Alec's stare lingered on her before he turned his head back to Jeremy and sighed, pulling some strands of his hair "I can't fight a girl" "Of course I know that, but I know you wanna see the faces of the dickheads bullying your girlfriend" Alec rolled his eyes, a playful smile on his face. "She is not my girlfriend" "Yet" Jeremy added firmly, grinning at him, then he saw someone that caught
Alec's smile remained on his face as he walked alongside with Heidi towards the car. The image of Kara's face kept playing in his head. "The girl is beautiful" He whispered to no one in particular. Heidi rolled her eyes and got in the backseat of the car, folding her arms across her full chest, Alec also got inside the car, but he took the passenger seat. "Today is really a great day. You get to beat up that guy and get noticed by his girlfriend, isn't that shit great?" Jeremy commented energetically as he started the car. Alec remembered when Kara had yelled at Milo that she was not his girlfriend. She also mentioned that they broke up. "Kara is not his girlfriend" Alec told his friends. Milo turned his head sideways to look at Alec "For real?" His brows were knitted. Alec smiled sympathetically as he recalled the way Milo treated her. "Milo is sick." "But..." Jeremy wet his lips with his tongue like he was mulling over something "Belinda told me Kara still loves Milo" "That
Alec's observing eyes fell on the two guys standing behind Milo like they were ready to support him if things went sideways. They were both tall and muscular with stern expressions. One of the guys had a lot of piercings while the other one had a lot of tattoos. Alec shook his head smilingly and turned around. He does not want to fight them. "Are you scared now?" Milo taunted, grabbing his arm. Alec looked down at the way Milo's hand wrapped tightly around his arm and looked up at Milo's face with a smile stretching the side of his lips. "I don't wanna fight you" Alec mumbled, his eyes going straight into Milo's. "Well, I wanna fight you" Milo spoke with arrogance and confidence. Alec chuckled softly and snatched his arm from Milo's tight grip. He began to wall off, shaking his head. Milo was still not ready to accept defeat. "Seize him!!" Milo ordered the two guys behind him and they obeyed instantly. They took long strides towards Alec to catch him by his arm and dragged him
The girl with the blonde hair was standing near the staircase, glaring hard at a tall, sturdy guy who was holding her by the wrist. The guy looked older and intimidating with his neat beard and locks of dyed hair. He also looked rich with his expensive gold wristwatch, rings, necklace, glistening on his smooth skin. Alec's eyes moved between the guy and the girl, watching as they argued about something, then his eyes later landed on the girl, focusing on her alone. She looked so familiar to Alec. He could swear he'd seen her somewhere before he can't just point out the exact place he'd seen her.He narrowed his eyes at the her, trying to remember where he'd seen her.At a party? He does not even attend parties often. He only attends when being forced. School? He does not think so, although he does not even know or remember the faces of most people at his school. Work? No fucking way in hell. She does not work at HEP centre. Alec racked his brain and soon, it clicked. She was
Alec looked like someone who had been threatened to have his private part cut off if he does not attend a party. His handsome face was having no smile or friendliness on it. He kept glaring at everyone and everything that came his way. Jeremy had used all measures to make sure Alec surely attends the party. "Remember, don't push the girls away tonight" Jeremy reminded Alec as they strolled into the building. Alec rolled his eyes "You said that like fifty times already" He exaggerated. "No, It's just five times, dude" Jeremy said, looking serious."And are you sure its not more than five times?" Heidi asked, raising her brows. "Of course!" Jeremy exclaimed, gesticulating with his hands "I only said that five times, not fifty times" Alec rolled his eyes again in a way to say 'whatever'. The party was already in full mode that Alec's jaw dropped like he was attending a party for the first time. Everyone was wild. Everywhere was loud. Everyone went crazy. "Oh, my, God." Alec call
Prof smith stood at the entrance of the warm house, his feet glued to the front of the door. Kris unlocked the door and invited him in with a bright smile but he shook his head at her, staying fixed at the entrance. "You should at least stay for lunch, I need to show my appreciation" She said persuasively, but Prof smith smiled and shook his head again. "Eric" she called him by his first name looking displeased. "I'm sorry Kris, maybe another time. I have to get back to work" He said. Insect, also Isaiah, passed his baby to his brother, smiling softly at him and then turned to Prof smith who still stood at the entrance of the door. Isaiah cleared his throat awkwardly "Thank you for everything" Prof smith smiled with his eyes and patted his left shoulder gently. "You should appreciate your aunt, she's a great mother for not giving up on you" Prof Smith said, turning his face at Kris to beam at her. She also smiled back. Isaiah narrowed his eyes, looking around like he was searc
Insect stared at his brother then at his aunt, trying to study them to know if they were saying the truth. "He's got a baby?" Alec commented through the earpiece in his suit. "I'm also surprised" Prof Smith said quietly, staring at the baby in his arms. When Israel had given him the baby to hold minutes ago, Prof Smith had thought the father of the baby was Israel but now he knew it was Isaiah. "My baby is alive?" Insect asked again. They both nodded"But, but...." Insect blinked in confusion, finding it hard to form a sensible sentence "How's that possible?" He whispered. "We had to fake the baby's death to keep her alive" Israel said softly. "Now stop all these, Isaiah. You won't want your baby to see you this way." Aunt Kris gestured her hands towards him "You dont want to be viewed as a murdered by your baby" Insect shook his head slowly, trying to suppress the growing power of wickedness inside him. "I am not a murderer" "We know" Aunt Kris said softly. "We know you're st
Insect held Greg's son tightly by his arm with his claws, while the guy pleaded for his life. But Insect didn't listen."I have been begging, please," the guy said shakily.Insect tightened his grip, feeling annoyed by the guy's last sentence. The guy cried out in agony."Nooooo!!! Pleaseeeee!!!" he begged desperately."When I begged you and your father, did you guys listen?" Insect finally spoke, his voice sending chills down the guy's spine as he recognized it immediately."Is that...." he trailed off, breathing heavily. "It can't be true. It can't be."Insect laughed evilly and confidently. "Really, Tommy?"The guy, shocked, realized that only one person called him Tommy instead of 'Tom.' "Isaiah?" he called out Insect's real name in surprise.Insect smirked and shook his head. "I AM INSECT!!"Aunt Kris turned fearfully to Prof Smith, her voice trembling. "Please, tell the Blaze not to harm him when he arrives," she pleaded."Why? The Blaze has to confront this guy," Prof Smith res
Alec's last sentence, announcing Greg's son's disappearance, didn't sit well with everyone."Now, I don't know where Insect took Greg," Alec said through the earpiece, getting frustrated.Prof Smith bit his lower lip hard, folding his arms across his chest to think.Jeremy rubbed his palm over his face, blinking rapidly. "Fuck, fuck, fuck," he cursed under his breath. "Insect is just so fucking troublesome! I wish I could punch him!"Heidi teased Jeremy with a smile. "You can only wish, you know you can't punch him." Then she turned serious to talk to Alec."Listen..." Her voice was firm. "It's not too late to save another person. You can still save Insect's mother from him.""Where does Insect's mother live? Do you have any idea about that?" Prof Smith asked, looking between Kris and the guy beside her."She moves from place to place," Kris replied, biting her lip as she thought."You could say from marriage to marriage. That's her specialty," the guy beside her added, scrunching up
