Kent's Point Of View

60 shards. All I collected while I hid from the eyes of the police and of the "former police". I found my way back to the city and bought a hoodie to hide my face.


I walked around in the city that really resembled New York. Skyscrapers, lights and the busy road. Same old city who never sleeps.



I tried to find a place to stay because it was getting late, but instead I found myself once again under a bridge. I sat down and removed my hoodie because it was soaking wet. The rain isn't showing any sign of stopping.


I took a gas shards and lit it up with a match. The shards bursted into flames, warming my body. I took the shotgun out of the bag and putted it on the ground.


I took my knife and started dismantling the shotgun into different parts.


*ZZZZZZ*


My fingers felt electrocuted as I pulled them back. There was a round figure and around it was a forcefield of yellow volts.


An electric concentrate.


Then I had this huge idea that involves conductivity. I connected my knife to the round core and my short blade suddenly surged with yellow energy.



I had to throw the knife because of the electrical shock but I quickly recovered. I found some cans under the bridge and constructed an aluminum container for the concentrate. I took the knife back and returned it to my pocket.


I lied down on the ground as I tried to sleep, but then I was startled when I heard a loud noise. It sounds like a police alarm, echoing through the dark bridge. I stood up and grabbed my bag and hoodie. I quickly wore the hoodie and walked away slowly from the bridge but then I heard a loud explosion.



The whole bridge blew up from above. Chunks of debris fell as I ran away from the bridge. The cars started falling down, life forms falling down and getting injured.



I saw a little girl with her bag hanging at the edge of the bridge. She cried as she wriggled and wriggled. Then the hook from the bridge snapped and she fell.



My instincts took over and I ran towards her. I knew I would be too late. I had to take desperate measures.


I touched the electric concentrate tied to my waist and I felt intense lightning through my body. I blinked and then I found myself just below the falling girl, and I caught her just in time.


Somehow I felt powerful. I felt fast. I putted the girl down and watched her run to her parents. I smiled faintly and ran away with my surroundings turning to air and colorful lines like I was traveling in a car.



I stopped. I was in the middle of the city, but all the people were running away from swarms of armored soldiers shooting lasers and blowing up buildings. A big ship flew above the city, releasing the armed soldiers and firing blackholes at will (which was impossible).


I looked around as the war between the soldiers I can't identify raged on. I saw other soldiers beating up innocent aliens while the others stopped them. Then I saw a familiar face on the field.



The Lieutenant.


He was a beast. He held a small gun but it looked like death's weapon because every shot counted. The enemy soldiers were going down but they seemed endless.



I ran to the lieutenant in full speed and accidentally shocked him.


"A second to expla- Michaels?!" He putted the gun down as he ordered the other commanders to take control.
