Warning: Dark themes, violence, and profanity in this chapter. Read at your own risk.
Orion's POV~ (Aka, the math teacher)
So, I lied. Honestly, did you really expect me to threaten a student just so I can take control of the school? Please, only an idiot would have such a reason. The real reason for my intentions are much darker, but it makes me get money.
I am part of the dark web in a nearby city. My allies and I are seen as typical thugs, but that's far from true. The real reason I want this school to be ruled by me is not only to recruit members. But to also start a slave trafficking. Any student who doesn't cooperate with my plans will be sold as slaves on the black market.
I bet you're wondering about the one who told these two power owned kids about this. That kid was my son, though I told him a lie. That brat of a kid really thought that Oliver's dad was the head of my organization. It's actually me, and he doesn't even know that I'm a part of it. The spoiled brat doesn't even know that I had intentions of sending him off first. I could care less where he'd go. He's just a waste of my time and money.
I found out about my powers when I was still young. Maybe about their age, actually. And no one knew of my abilities to controls stones and minerals.
They both kept coming at me with their attacks, but I keep using my earth related powers to block their attacks and use these stone shields as weapons as I fling and hit them with it. I smiled at my soon to be victory. There's no way these two will win against me. They're already getting tired, and I haven't gotten hit once.
I knew they were going to collapse at any given time. Then I'll end these two's pathetic lives. Spoiled brats from rich families. Only liked for their looks. And don't even know how to use their powers.
I sent out rock pillars out of the ground that launch them away from me as their backs hit the wall and they fall down to the ground.
Michael's POV~
I coughed up a bit of blood. This damn guy...
Honestly, why the hell are we even fighting a guy who just wants to take over a damn school?! This is stupid!
But we both know that if we don't continue, he's going to hurt Oliver and his family. Even though we're already exhausted from fighting, we both get up. Rage burned in our eyes as we both ran at him once again.
We both ran on different sides of him, hoping to confuse him. However, our plan didn't work as we were both launched different ways from an attack that sent rock pillars out of the ground all around him.
Ugh! I wished I trained myself! I should've used my power to protect! But I was stupid and always used it to impress people! I felt a few tears fall from my eyes as I felt a sense of hopelessness from this fight. I sent off a strong volt of lightning at Orion, which was blocked by another one of his stone shields. He then sent it flying towards me as I braced for the impact.
However, the impact was stopped by one of Jake's icicle blasts. I looked over to Jake, only to see him get knocked back by another giant stone.
Jake's POV~
Damn, that hurt like hell. What the hell's up with this guy?! Is he seriously fighting just for this!? This is all so stupid!
I look back at the house and see Oliver watching us with tears in his eyes from seeing us get hurt so much. I frowned at this. I hate this!
We're losing! We haven't gotten a hit on him once! He's not even tired! Then there's me and Michael who are using everything we can do in our power to make sure Oliver's family is safe! Ugh, why does a place like this have to be suddenly filled with another powered entity who plans on using his power for something so stupid!
I got up again to send more icicles at him. However, before I could do so, he sent another large stone in my direction. I tried to dodge it, but it was too fast.
Instead, Michael got in front of me, but the stone was launched so fast that it sent us both flying back as we hit the ground. The both of us try to get up, but it's so hard. We're both already so tired. My muscles ache so badly. I want to get up, I have to get up! I try, but my body isn't listening to what I want. I look at Michael who's in tears right now.
I grimace at the pain and felt tears come down too. I tried so hard to be a good future boyfriend for Oliver. And right now, I'm probably seen as some weakling who can't protect him! I'm trying my best to get up, Michael is too. But both of our bodies are not cooperating with us.
We see Orion coming towards us with a dark look on his face. He summoned two stone walls, about to let them fall into us.
But before they could, a familiar voice shouted. "PLEASE STOP!!!"
Oliver... No... Don't...
Oliver's POV~
I ran out in front of Mr. Orion.
"Please! Stop this fighting! My dad can sign a form to have the school go under your name! Just end the fighting!" I shouted with tears falling down my face at the sight of my two friends in great pain.
Mr. Orion chuckles and it soon become a maniacal laugh. He then goes down to my ear and whispers. "You think I really just want to take control of the school? How stupid. I'm after your bounty. A thing like you is worth a lot. If only you didn't run from your master."
My eyes opened with shock at hearing that as I froze in place. I shivered in place as more tears began to fall from my face.
The two walls of stone around me began to fall towards Jake and Michael. I cried out as it was about to fall on them.
"NO!" Suddenly, there was a blinding light. Wait... is it coming from me?
Orion's POV~
There was a very bright, blue light that came out of nowhere. I had to look away so I could be able to see clearly. The light lasted about a minute before it vanished. The two stone walls I was about to use to crush these two pests were gone. There was a large smoke that was caused by the light.
I continue to look into the smoke, but then I feel a chill go down my spine. And not the kind where I feel fear, but the kind you feel when you're cold. Wait, where the hell did those two powered brats go?!
My answer was soon revealed, but my eyes go wide at the sight in front of me as the smoke dissipated.
Glowing blue eyes from two directions. Strange glowing stripes on their fur. And lastly... A set of wings... And a set of 7 long thin tails...
They fully revealed themselves as they came out of this mist.... Dammit...
They have Limitation Edge.
