Outskirts of Los Angeles
"Alright guys you got my location?" Edward asked.
"Yeah." Alberto replied via The Speedster's ear-communication devices.
Edward was in his Speedster suit, he placed a circular device on his chest and it activated emitting a blue light. "Wo! I feel that."Edward said excitedly.
"That's the tachyon device charging your cells." Sarah said via the suit's ear-comms.
"Okay ready to go Justin?" Dr Ratchet asked.
"Yeah I am." Edward said.
"Right 3...2...Go!" Alberto said and Edward ran at superspeed. Edward was already in the city going faster and faster than ever.

Alberto, Sarah and Dr Ratchet looked at Edward through the monitor.
"Dang! He's cruising." Alberto said excitedly.
"He's heart rate is normal." Sarah said.
Edward was going faster and faster throughout the city."Guys I think I can go faster." Edward said.
"Then what are you waiting for?" Dr Ratchet asked with a smile.
Edward ran so fast that an inter-dimensional breach opened in front of him and he sped into it.

"What happened to him?" Sarah asked as the suit's tracker just stopped.
Alberto pressed the cyber desk and he said "Edward!"
"There must be a good reason why he's not answering." Dr Ratchet said.
The breach opened up again in the middle of the street and Edward came out of it fast.
Back at Phoenix
Level 100
Edward sped inside and said "I am back."
"Dude you scared the shit outta all of us." Alberto said.
"How... How fast was I going?" Edward asked.
"Your current top speed is Mach twenty-five." Sarah replied.
"That's as fast as-" Edward said.
"As Ezra and Speed Demon." Dr Ratchet finished Ed's sentence.
"Well faster actually." Alberto said.
Edward sped out of the suit and he was back into his normal clothes.
"Now we can beat Hunter." Edward said.
"How about we don't engage Hunter without a plan." Dr Ratchet said.
"What? I am faster than both Ezra and Hunter." Edward said.
"Edward I agree that you're fast but we can't engage Hunter without a plan. I mean the man has studied you for over a year and he might anticipate that you might wanna challenge him." Dr Ratchet said.
"But Dr Ratchet I-I mean..." Edward started to say but he was cut off by Dr Ratchet.
"Justin I don't expect you to try and go ahead with this stupid plan?" Dr Ratchet said.
"We're doing this. With or without your help." Edward said sternly and sped away.
"Josh..." Sarah started to say but Dr Ratchet just walked off leaving the two looking at each other.
