The Flawed Test

Chapter 12

     Krashoom! The wall exploded and blasted the principal to smithereens. Will was already on top of it with his extreme levelheadedness.

     "Okay. We're obviously being attacked. It doesn't matter who, we just need to flee. I'll go search the office and grab all the information I can. Luckily, it's still intact. Kyle, Kale, and Jess need to go find our attackers and rescue Leo. As for Claudia and Tyler, you two need to help everyone else get out. Okay? Let's go." Will ordered, stressed and walking into the office. I grouped up with Kyle and Jess and we headed downstairs to search for both our attackers and Leo.

     "I can't believe I'm stuck exploring a blown-up school with you guys," Jess complained.

     "You can complain when we get the heck outta here! Focus on finding Leo, or worse, our attackers." Kyle scolded. Fortunately, we found Leo, but he was with someone. The girl he was with sorta looked like a biker, wearing a leather jacket, but she was also wearing blue skinny jeans. She was short, almost at around five foot and had black hair put into a ponytail.

     "Who's your friend here?" I asked.

     'This is Eliana. She's the other level six that survived' Leo explained.

     "Sup," Eliana said. 

     "Well, Eliana," Jess said, "We need to get outta here unless you wanna get exploded by whatever or whoever's out there." 

     "Duh," Eliana said. We walked down the east hall and met back up with Will who now had a backpack that literally held every piece of data we needed to figure out what was happening.

     "I told everyone to meet us outside of the front door," He said. But, as though it was inevitable, later down the hallway, the wall was blown up and we met one of our enemies. He stood abnormally tall at around six foot six, a couple inches taller than Kyle, and you know how there are those really tall people, but they're scrawny? Yeah. This guy was an exception. He was ripped from head to toe and had a constant glare on him. He looked about twenty-four but strangely had long, white hair.

     "You, the 'big intruder' that's supposed to be here? I expected a lot more." Eliana mocked, stepping forward as if she had a death wish.

     "One more sentence like that and I'll wipe you off the face of the Earth." He threatened in a deep gravelly voice as he stuck his right arm out and caused an explosion, just to show an example. Eliana retreated, but only to ask if anyone in our group was defense orientated. Then, after realizing it was Will, started whispering in his ear.

     "Just get me close enough to him so that I can touch him. Then I'll show you the lil' ace I got up my sleeve." She whispered into Will's ear. He nodded and created a tight, but extremely thick shield around the two of them.

     "So, you're sayin' you'll blow me to smithereens? Go ahead. Try it." Eliana poked fun. Out of sheer rage, the white-haired guy tried to blow up Will's defense bubble, only to no avail. This seemed to shock him quite a bit.

     "My turn," Eliana said, her eyes narrowing. "Lower the bubble." She darted forward and slid on the ground through the white-haired guy's legs. "Annihilation's Caress,"  Eliana said, her eyes turning black. Then she just touched his back. With only her pointer finger. White hair started to laugh when he just suddenly stopped laughing. He dropped to the floor, dead as a doornail.

     "How did she?-" I couldn't even comprehend what I had seen enough to make a complete sentence.

     "Analyzing her Neuropsionic powers..." Will analyzed. "It seems as if she differs from every other level six, or even any Neurospionist in general. It appears that instead of having a power and then being able to output it in six different ways, she is given one massively powerful attack named "Annihilation's Caress", which targets the central nervous system and immediately shuts it down. With this power, she is, as the cool kids are saying these days, OP."

     "Wow. A round of applause for Eliana. She can kill you in one touch, so don't get on her bad side." Kyle joked.

     "Kyle! This isn't the time for joking. If someone planned to destroy the AONT, they wouldn't come alone. Let's get out and meet everyone else by the front door."Jess rationalized. We got outside and saw that Claudia and Tyler had succeeded in helping everyone out and giving them stuff to help them flee with. As soon as I called them over, Claudia saw that I was okay and gave me a huge hug.

     "Heyyyy no need for suffocation," I said, backing off, but still accepting the hug a little.

     "Sounds like someone has a lil' crush." Tyler teased.

     "Do not! Just glad he's- you guys are okay." Claudia explained. "Do you even have a plan to get outta here, Tyler?"

     "You read my mind, Claud. My uncle knows a guy, who knows a guy, and that last guy's cousin has a place way far away from here that we could lay low at." Tyler explained.

      "Definitely doesn't sound sketchy at all," I said flatly.
