As it continued to downfall outside, so, did the tension inside Ajax's apartment intensified.

"WHAT THE HELL?!" Ajax yelled as he grabbed a baseball bat. "WHAT DID YOU DO?!"

"I ... I ... did not do anything ... I think?" North said confusedly as he made a step towards Ajax.

"MAKE A STEP FARTHER AND I'M GONNA SMASH YOUR HEAD WITH THIS." Ajax shouted as he swung the baseball bat towards North.

"Whoa ... take it easy." North began to say. "I mean you no harm."

"THEN, WHAT JUST HAPPENED?"

"I DON'T KNOW EITHER!"

The bulbs in the kitchen and doorway exploded. Ajax sprung in motion and swung the baseball bat at North. Before North could react, the bat hit his face.

"WHAT ARE YOU?!"

Ajax was in disbelief as the baseball bat passed through North's head without hurting him. It was like the bat hit a hologram or something which Ajax could not explain. He swung the bat again at North, and the same thing happened.

He, then, dropped the bat and punched North with his bare fist. And this time, his fist made contact with North's face. North fell on the floor as blood began to drip from his lower lip.

Ajax was about to attack again when North raised his left arm.

"ENOUGH!" North said.

Ajax flew across the room and landed on the bed.

"WHAT EXACTLY THE FUCK ARE YOU?!"

Ajax shouted as he jumped out of the bed and went towards North. North raised his left arm again and no matter how hard Ajax tried to moved forward he could. It seemed that some force was stopping him.

North was puzzled as well with all that was happening. It seemed that he was willing that much power out of self-defense.

"Please calm down. I mean you no harm. I need your help." North begged.
