EDEN [Reign Of The Light Streak]

Chapter Thirteen: Bad Days 2

A day later...

Plunge and the dark figured servant stood by a pillar of an underground parking lot of one of Don's company.
Though he had his mask on, it was easy to deduce from the fact that he was pissed.

For a moment, he turned his eyes to a Ferrari car nearby, looking at his unclear reflexion on the sleek surface.
There then, footsteps as that of numerous people radiated the silent vacuum.

It was some of the Pillar's servants approaching the two.

The first man to speak was a villain who goes by the name 'Stand'.
He wore a coat with no inner shirt, wearing black shades that matched his thick jeans
"Boss, we couldn't break her out."

Slowly, Plunge cracked his head up to a considerable angle, fixing a frightening glare into each of their souls.

With calm steady steps he walked closer to them, leaving a distance of about four feet between them and pulled down his hood.
He then fixed two of his fingers in the eyes of the mask, pulling it away from his face.

"You were given the privilege to overrule those that tried to control your freedom. You were given the liberty to take over the entire city. I give you one, simple, task....and you fail."
His words inculcated fright, giving them the first class nervous feel bonused by self disappointment.

Shivers run down their backbone.

Stand managed to change the mute inertia by responding "The asylum was heavily guarded...boss. We were defenseless against the dampening field-" but was cut off by the cold hand that resided on his left shoulder.

He swallowed.

He couldn't do anything. Forcefully looking back at Plunge wasn't much of an agreement.
His eyes were dry and dark, coated with infamy. His nose looking as though it were flattened to his face as a result of burns.
His concluding word  followed a silent sigh "Amiiigooo." (Spanish for "friend")

Bodies were without breath on the floor, looking dehydrated as though it was rotten and dried up at the same time.
An ashy miasma ascended from stand's body -let's say, what's left of it- as Plunge wore back his mask and tossed up his hood.

The Capable trainees were still wondering in the forest along the western side of Eden city.
Unaware of their current location or route, they continued to beg their legs to remain walking for sometime.

Having the black jacket lad as the only foreigner amongst them, Cage finally put escaping aside and question out of the blue " How did you know that those guys were coming."

"Wasn't that obvious?! They were scattered everywhere in the city like savage ants." The boy responded, jumping over a fungus infected log ahead.

Being baffled by the boy's response, Stereo spoke, incredulous "Scattered?"

"Yeah. They were killing every superhuman they could find, and every human against them."

"How do you know we're supers?" Cage acquainted with a suspicious tone, carefully studying the boy for any fault to question.
The boy simply answered, wasting a moment to look back at Cage and scoffing "It's obvious." "And also, secrets can never be hidden from me."
