Lasers

When we were sent back out again, Dr. Cory was grinning evilly like she had just finished a masterpiece.
Also known as, something that would fail us.

But we didn't really need healing. We just all needed a mental recovery from that shock.
I stepped back into the ring a few minutes later, and others joined in.

Once again, the walls separated us from Dr. Cory and the red lasers were still visible.
The log however, was gone.

I swear this battle ring or whatever keeps changing because now, there was also a door on the other side of the ring.
It was labeled 'Exit'.
So do we have to go through that door?

"Okay....well...how do we do this?" Someone asked uncertainly.
I didn't know myself either.
Should we just rush in and try to dodge the attacks as fast as we can? I wasn't sure of that though since none of us was able to react to that damn log from before.
Who knows what more traps Dr. Cory set?

"Can you teleport there Ena?" Lilliana asked.

Ena shook her head.
"That'll mean that when I teleport, I'm gonna be going through one of those red beams too. You do realize that there are a lot surrounding the exit right now..?"

I scratched my head.
"How about Jason runs through all of the beams at once, and then we deal with them?"

"But we're all gonna die if that happens." Fernandez pipped in.

I stared at him for a minute and he looked at me in confusion.
"Hey Fernandez...."

"Yes..lord?"
Oh I forgot he calls me lord because I'm 'Lord of the Sky'.

"You have barriers and shields as your power right?"

He hesitantly nodded as if he got the gist of what's going on.
I feel so smart.
I smiled and he smiled back at me.

So we were smiling to each other like idiots, while no one understood what was on our damn minds.
Why they so stupid though...?

"So we're doing that plan right?" I asked Fernandez.

He clocked his head to the side.
"Wait what plan?"

I face-palmed.
"You don't know? Then why'd you smile at me?"

He scratched his head. "Because the lord of the sky graciously blessed me with his uplifting smile."

Oh.

I mean, I feel flattered and all but I also feel so salty right now.
Like salty tears.

I want to jump off a building but I'll probably survive that fall.
Which is also the saddest thing ever when you want to disappear from the face of Earth.

"So I was thinking...maybe make Jason run through all the red beams at once, and then I don't know....Fernandez blocks all the incoming attacks with his shield at the same moment..."

They nodded considerably.
"I don't know if I'll be able to take all the attacks." Fernandez said.
Some of the guys tried to comfort him.
"Yes you can, man."

He shook his head repeatedly.
"No, I can't."

"Of course you can." I assured him.

"Yes I can." Fernandez said immediately, his face brightening.

I think he's my number one fan or something. It's flattering but...I'm still salty from before.
But I'm not about to admit that in real life.

"Let's just try it." Ena suggested, shrugging her shoulders.
"We already wasted a few minutes."
True.

I took a breath in, and got into running position, trying not to touch the red beams while doing so.

Jason cranked his neck side to side.

"On the count of three." I said steadily.
"1.."

I heard a few foots shuffled on the ground.
"2.."

"3!" I yelled.
At the same time, Jason sped around in a circle, touching the red beams with ease.

Fernandez at the same moment, generated a crystal light blue non-see through shield that spread around quickly.
When Jason returned back and was in the shield with us, I couldn't even tell what was happening outside.

All I heard was crashing and sizzling and every single demolishing sound ever.
The shield radiated warm energy every-time something crashed into it.

"Run to the exit!" Fernandez shouted, holding the shield up firmly.

We all rushed down to the other side of the ring, the sound of crashing outside still going.
Jason exited the ring first quickly, and the metal wings guy followed along.

I was like the ninth person out of there, and I could hear Fernandez yell "SHIT" before he also joined us.

Dr. Cory stood at the other end laughing.
"See, that was easy wasn't it?"

Yeah sure.
We only succeeded because of Fernandez and Jason.

For some reason now, the agents are beside Dr. Cory, with popcorns in their hands.
Wow.
Were they enjoying this?

Motherfuckers.

I went up to Agent 3 and gave him a kick to the face.
He fell from the chair and gasped as I sat down for myself.

Agent 3 glared at me and I don't know how he has a stick in his hand, but now he's beating me with it.

Seriously.

What are old peoples' powers? To generate magical beating sticks out of nowhere whenever someone is being an ass?
Can I have that power too?

Gary and James chuckled as I got beat to death.
Now take note.
I can self heal, but I STILL FEEL PAIN OKAY?
So no one be going around like...Yo Ray, stop being a bitch.

Because ya know what?
You just hating, and you got no jams.

I sighed while slowly dying.
When Agent 3 tried to hit me again for the twentieth time, I electrocuted his stick, and it lit on flame.
He dropped the stick and groaned.
"Brat."

Fernandez skipped to me happily.
"THANK YOU LORD FOR ENCOURAGING ME THROUGH MY DARKEST OF TIMES. I COULDN'T BELIEVE IN MYSELF BUT YOU MADE ME REALIZE HOW MUCH I REALLY MEAN. I FELT LIKE I WAS A REALLY BIG HELP THIS TIME THANKS TO YOU. I SERIOUSLY COULDN'T HAVE DONE IT WITHOUT YOUR NICE WORDS AND YOUR BRIGHT MIND. I JUST AM SO INDEBTED TOWA—"

I walked away.
