The Peak

Chapter 23: Thought and Emotion

In the Castle of Van Halen, Anita is lashing out her rage after Rockien failed to kill Marc Sebastian for the second time, " I am sick of all your failures...You failed twice Rockien." she said. Rockien bows down to her, " My apologies, my lady, it won't happen again for the third time." he said. "No. I will no longer send you on a mission alone for just one kill. The Circle should have strengthened their strategy by now....Hmmm..Well that won't matter." she said.

" Our drug pills and factories are all set and hidden, no one would be able to find them." Ares said. " How about our soldiers ?" she asked. "Unfortunately, most of those brats did not survive the pill's effects, their bodies could not handle it and they all went into cardiac arrest. And some of the surviving ones were all broken by SF 1, they are no longer of use." Ares replied. " And those that we still have left ?" she asked. " There are enough of them to destroy all the current street fighters in the SF rankings. Once they accomplish their mission, the Van Halen Soldiers shall be conquering the Rankings next year and so on." Ares said. " How many of them ?" Anita asked. " These three idiots here, the Nickel boy, and around 16 more of our abducted street fighters turned to our soldiers. They all have at least a battle index limit ranging from 7,000 points to 10,000 points. Enough to conquer the Rankings for next 4 years." Ares replied.

" So what should we do with that Dominum boy ?" Jewon asked, referring to Figorus Dominum. " He will eventually reveal and join himself in the upcoming battles of this war. But once he shows himself...Johen," Anita said.

" Yes grandmother," Johen bows.

" I will give one last chance to destroy SF 1 and his brothers. If you fail again, don't come back here unless you're dead, am I clear ?" she said.

" Crystal," says Johen.

" Once SF 1 shows up in the battle field, you three shall take them on and beat them to pulp. Rockien, you take Nickel to eliminate the Sebastians. Ares, proceed on the drug distribution, turn the grounds into our own domain." Anita said and gave her orders. " The next few weeks will be crucial and vital to our success." she said.

Meanwhile in the West Masters University. A new professor is dealing with Damian's rude and nonchalant attitude in his physics class. Damian refuses to stand up when he is called for a recitation.

" Would you please stand up when you are answering ?" says the professor. Damian is just ignoring him, " huh ? No". Professor is upset, " What did you say ?" he says. " I said, no." Damian says while reading a manga.

The professor walks towards Damian, grabs his shirt and tries to pull him up. But Damian still refuses to stand up.

" I said stand up !" says the professor.

The whole class is shocked as they witness this professor grabbing and forcing Damian to stand up. The class is now feeling frightened not because of the professor, but because of Damian. The professor has no idea who Damian Sebastian is. His brother, Damien Sebastian, is just reading a comic book and does not seem to care.

"Your equation is absolute bullshit." says Damian. The professor was shocked by what he said. He let go of Damian. " What?"

" Blackholes are not created by just particles inside a star that are exploding and they create black holes, your equation is bullshit. A black hole can be formed by the death of a massive star. When such a star has exhausted the internal thermonuclear fuels in its core at the end of its life, the core becomes unstable and gravitationally collapses inward upon itself, and the star's outer layers are blown away. " Damian said.

The professor is shocked and furious and starts to grab Damian with both hands. " You bastard kid!"

Damian looks at the professor with a deadly stare, " I am only going to say this once, get your filthy hands off me."
