Brad is moving a sack of cement. He is helping the others building a new building for farming.

They have taken out roofs from nearby houses. They need more farms to feed their members.

A strong wind suddenly blows and he nearly got blown away.

The cement sack has fallen to the ground.

Poor Brad is holding a lamp post to prevent getting blown away.

Veronica has seen it from a distance. She makes no effort to help him.

"Fool..."

She just retreats like others.

Brad is probably the only ability user who couldn't control his power well.

He shakes his head after the wind died. He wonders why this kept happening to him.

Wind God seems to hate him. He always tried to blow him away.

Sometimes he got blown in his bedroom. With all the windows closed.

That's why he doesn't keep any dangerous stuff in his bedroom. No sharp objects or even furniture like table and bed.

Only a pillow and a futon.

Others shake their heads whenever it happens. They are surprised how could a fool like him joined special force.

Veronica couldn't argue with them. Brad is the kind who is dependable in fighting. Hopeless in daily life.

*****

Road blockade ahead of them. When their car stops, another car shows up from behind.

It completely blocks their escape route.

Val and Ross get out of their car.

A bunch of rough looking men have surrounded them. All of them are holding clubs or other weapons.

Their leader orders, "Leave your belongings behind, boy. And we will let you leave here alive."

He sneers when he notices Val.

He adds, "Leave this pretty Omega too. Our guys could entertain him. Make him happy."

The rogues laugh heartily.

Val shows no emotion at all. Not even fear. He retains his poker face as usual.

The cliche lines. Can't these cannon fodder villains say something new. Novelty one would be appreciated.

Val resists hard not to yawn. It won't fit the script.

He stills yawns loudly in the end.

The villains look offended. This Omega is looking down at them.

One of them tries to grab Val.

A machete cuts his dirty paw off. The villain screams while holding his injured arm.

Ross doesn't even blink when he slashes someone.

Val rolls his eyes.

Told you. Cannon fodders should stay away from the protagonist.

Other villains have surrounded them. They are striking Ross from many directions.

Val is holding a baseball bat. He hits anyone tries to reach him. He can't help Ross much with his small strength. At least he could protect himself well.

BANG! BANG! BANG!

Gunshots kept fired and killed some thugs in a row.

The surviving thugs escape like beaten dogs.
