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?""
During the car ride to Jeremy's house, Jenny would sometimes sneak a glance at Alec. He was lounging in the backseat, eyes closed, but definitely not asleep. A guilty expression would occasionally cross Jenny's face, and she nervously twiddled her fingers as Jeremy drove in silence.They finally arrived at Jeremy's house, and Jenny confidently strode in after he unlocked the door. As they started climbing the stairs, Alec couldn't help but ask, "You guys live together?"Jenny halted in her tracks, a mischievous smile on her face. "Seriously? You're asking if I live with my own brother?"Alec blinked, his eyes darting between the siblings. The revelation was surprising, and it took a moment for it to sink in."Good night, I'm exhausted," Jenny said, pausing to give Alec a brief once-over before continuing towards her bedroom.Alec turned to Jeremy, seeking confirmation. "You two are really siblings?"Jeremy scratched the back of his neck, a hint of awkwardness in his response. "Yeah, w
