ENERGY

Chapter 31

As you know from the last chapter, the giant electric orb did not explode.

"What the!?" Earlia shouted. "Why didn't it explode?!"

"Guess it didn't want to explode, heh." Shawn said.

Earlia tightened her fist and punched Shawn in the face.

"You think this is a joke, huh?!" She yelled. "We'll see if it's funny when I rip that mouth off of your face."

Shawn just took a few steps back, and looked to the side.

"Sorry, uh..maybe something happened that made it not explode?" He said. I don't know what could possibly happen, but.."

Earlia sighed, and rubbed her eyes.

"God, I'm so freaking tired of all this." She said. "But anyways, I got another plan. I'll just electrocute people ONE BY ONE."

Earlia creepily turned to John.

"Why don't I start with you first, Johnny boy?" She said. "Have we even fought yet? I think not."

John held his fist up.

"Bring it on, Ea..." As John was speaking, he felt like his heart was getting stabbed, so he grabbed his chest and fell to the ground.

"John?!" Alexander shouted, who was still holding Oliver. "Are you okay?!"

John didn't say anything. Sweat rolled down his forehead, and his heart was still in intense pain.

Earlia put her hands on her hips.

"I didn't even do anything yet and he's already rolling on the ground in pain." She said. "How..strange and pathetic."

The pain went away, and John stood up.

"That pain was nothing compared to the pain you're about to feel." He said. But something was different about him. His face expression was strange, and the most strange of all: His voice was completely different.

"Huh?!" Alexander said.

John squeezed his fist, makes veins appear on his muscular arm.

"I've got punched way too many times today." He said, grinning. "Now it's my turn to punch YOU!"

With surprising, super speed, John punched Earlia in the face. (someone out there might say "hey! He punched a girl like that?" Just know that he punched a child before. Yes, I know he HAD to but..yeah.)

Earlia rubbed the blood off of her face.

"Hiding something, John?" She said smiling. "How magnificent! Now we can have a truly real fight."

John smirked and looked up to the sky.

"Oh, not now." He said. "He has to make his entrance."

Everyone raised their eyebrows in confusion.

Alexander grinned and cleared his throat.

"I Know what he means guys!" He said. "By he, he means me. He's asking for hell from me! He!"

John turned to Alexander.

"Don't compare yourself to him. You're just a little bug that deserves to be crushed."

Alexander growled and shook his fist.

"HOW DARE YOU CALL ME A BUG, HUH?!" He shouted. "WELL, GUESS WHAT? I'M A BEE AND I WILL STING YOU I WILL-"

A large rumble in the ground caused Alexander to not finish his sentence, and fall to the ground. This made John fall to the ground too, but for a different reason. The chest pain was back, but it went away sooner than last time.

"Ugh... I feel weird.." He said while rubbing his head.

"Dude," Alexander said. "You ARE weird."

Robbie leaned down by John's side.

"Yeah, you feeling okay?" He said. "You were saying some really weird things."

John shrugged and rubbed his eyes.

"I don't know.." he said. "But I sense something. I sense some really strong power."

Robbie's eyes slightly widened, and he turned to Cirlus.

"I think someone is coming." Robbie said. "And it's someone really strong."

Cirlus scratched his chin, then he gasped.

"Man, oh, man.." he said. "I think I may know who it might be."

Cirlus gulped. "It's-" Robbie hit him with his elbow and looked him in the eyes.

"Don't say his name in front of Earlia." He said. "What if you make her angrier than she already is..?"

"You don't have to say 'he's anymore." Said a echoey, deep voice from the sky.

All of them looked up, and something strange.. something MORE strange was happening. The sky was slowly turning black.

John's eyes widened as he looked at the now pitch black sky. And when I say pitch black, I mean pitch black. Absolutely no stars twinkled in the sky.

"Uh..is that supposed to happen?" Alexander asked Robbie.

"Hm, no." Robbie said. "Maybe this is a rare event?"

Shawn slowly shook his head. "Nope, looks like he's finally come." He said. "Took him long enough.."

Earlia didn't say anything. She just looked up to the sky for a moment, and looked down.

"Of course he wants to show up now.." she said. "When I'm busy trying to fight John...idiot.."

"So, is no one going to talk about how John was acting possessed, called me a bug, and now the sky is black?" Alexander said. "IS NOBODY ELSE CONCERNED?!"

Suddenly there were wet sounding footsteps in the distance in front of them.

John brought himself closer so he could see what it was, and his heart speeded up at the sight of who it was.

It was a tall, black haired man wearing a lab coat. He also wore glasses, and a black mask.

"Who the.. who the heck is that?" Alexander said.

Shawn got his hand ready to make chains just in case.

"It's Disaster." He said. "Looks like he finally showed up."

John knew Disaster was a strong, dangerous man. He knew that he had hurt many people. Anger rose in his chest just looking at Disaster walking towards him.

"There's just..." Disaster said creepily. "Two people I wanna see today.."

He stopped walking, and slowly turned his head towards Earlia's way.

"Oh, look at you..." he said. "You've all grown up, sweetie."

Sweat slowly rolled down her forehead. She secretly hid that she was completely terrified at the moment. Of course she was going to be scared. The man who caused all her pain and problems was here standing right in front of her.

"Oh, I can't wait to see what type of strength you have...." Disaster said. "Not going to say anything? Then I can move on.."

Disaster turned towards John.

"And you..oh, yes, you..John.." he said. "Do you remember me? Do you know who I am?"

John bit his lip, trying to hold himself back from punching the guy in the face.

"I don't remember you because I don't know you." He said.

Disaster let out a creepy, loud laugh.

"How do you not remember your own father?"

Everyone's eyes widened, then they looked at John in confusion, and shock.

And it was at that moment, that John felt the worst feeling of all time.
