Abilities

Chapter 24

He had planted trackers in every single one of them. He always knew where they were, what they were doing, and who they were doing it with. He always prided himself on his intelligence and ten brats wouldn't catch him off guard. He was in New York with his army and he could easily start his invasion somewhere else,  like England, but he always had a weak spot for New York City, it was iconic, and it would fall. He also wanted Harry to know that Paige had been telling the truth all along right before he watched Gemma kill him. She had worked out far better than even he expected. Her power was astounding and she was fiercely loyal to him, even when Paige tried to take her away. She wasn't hard on the eyes either. He checked his watch 12:00 exactly, it was time. "Gemma," "yes Darius?" "We should get this started don't you think? Let them loose tell them to destroy, tell them to kill, let them show off the powers that I gave them. And remind them that whoever kills any member of one direction or their girlfriends will be generously rewarded." "You can't do this! I won't let you!" Darius just turned and looked into Martha's green eyes. She had seen him kill Eric and had helped him make more people with abilities, but everyone ran out of value sooner or later. He plunged his knife into Martha's throat right there in Times Square. People started screaming and running but they weren't getting far before his soldiers stopped them. He looked at his computer one more time and saw ten dots all running towards his location. It was time for his party. "Gemma," "yes?" "I want you to be the one that kills Harry while I watch."

Screams. He was in the hotel of his lobby about to go out to get something to eat when he heard them. He started running towards them, he was close but he knew Paige could teleport there and he didn't want her heading in alone to a situation that sounded like this. He rounded a corner and came to a halt. What he saw would be ingrained into his head for the rest of his life. People were running but they weren’t getting that far, they were falling left and right. He saw one man spitting acid at a woman and she disintegrated right before his eyes. He was watching people die and he was frozen. He stared at the middle of the chaos because there was Gemma standing by Darius watching and talking like nothing was happening. Just then something knocked him to the ground, he was alarmed and sent out a warming shock throughout his body, and the body that was pressing him to the ground fell off. “What are you doing Paige? I could’ve killed you!” “You weren’t paying attention Harry! If I hadn’t moved you, you would’ve been dead!”  He looked down and to the left right where he had standing there was a steaming liquid, acid. “Thanks. He’s mine.” “No! Harry, I’ll take care of him. You get to Gemma and convince her to help us. There is so many at least thirty, we’ll need all the help we can get…” Harry cut her off with a kiss, “I’m sorry,” and with that he was gone into the middle of the fight to go find Gemma.
