The Outcasts *COMPLETED*

Chapter 30 - Beginning of The End

The Higher Being looked down, moving it's fingers around and smirking to himself. He looked up, noticing the wandering eyes of the people peering out of their windows. His body was a sky blue, and his eyes were pitch black. Black soot covered his chest and face slightly from the rock he had been inside of. There were veins on his body that stuck out and were covered in the black dirt as well. He slowly began to smile, looking out at the street that had its surface ripped apart. Extending his arms slowly, he closed his eyes and took a deep breath. The lights coming from inside the houses blew out, causing families, couples, and the like to jump. Street lights soon followed, causing the street to become pitch black.

"I'm here." he spoke softly, jumping down from the rock and landing on the ground with a thundurus boom that shook the houses around him. Slowly he walked down the street, looking at the plants, lawn ornaments, and other decorations that were placed in front of houses. The cars that were spazzing out soon were quieted as he walked by the, feeling the energy flow through him.

"Stronger." he said to himself. He looked down at his hand that had small jolts of electricity moving from fingertip to fingertip. The Higher Being looked over at a woman who was staring at him with fear in her eyes. He smirked at her, peering through the window and seeing a familiar looking statue.

"The young one." the Higher Being said. "Keep him safe."

"Who a-" the woman began to question but the Higher Being just continued to slowly walk down the street. The Higher Being heard something click, and he stopped moving. Very eerily he turned around, his eyes narrowing in on the woman who held a gun in her hand.

"Drop it." he ordered her. She shook her head, watching as more electricity began to radiate off of his body.

"Where are you from?" she asked, keeping the gun aimed at him. The tenseness of the situation built as the Higher Being smiled again.

"Far from this galaxy. I've travelled a long time to reach this planet. Years almost." the Higher Being said, beginning to walk towards the woman now.

"Why?" she asked, not lowering her weapon.

"For a home. For salvation. Why else?" he questioned, noticing a car with flashing red and blue lights had pulled up onto a part of the street that wasn't destroyed. The Higher Being extended his hand, shooting lightning out of his hand and watching as it was sent right into the side of the police car that went flying. The car then blew up from the impact of the bolt and being flung threw the air, killing the officer that was inside of it.

"Goodbye." the Higher Being said to the woman, smiling again as he turned and began to make his way towards the school, slowly walking the whole way.

Drew took a deep breath, feeling the ground below him shake all of a sudden. He had a gun in one hand and a flashlight in another as he moved down the sewer, hoping to find some sign of the Director that was left behind. The ground shook again and Drew dropped the flashlight from the initial shock. He watched it begin rolling down the sewer, getting farther and farther away from him.

"The hell is going on up there?" he asked himself out loud, walking after the flashlight. All of a sudden the flashlight sparked, turning off and leaving Drew in the pitch black. He put both hands on his gun, swallowing hard as he stood still, not sure which direction was safe to move in as the sound of an explosion soon sounded off into the distance.

Danny shut his eyes as he was slammed face first into the ice wall inside the school, feeling the cold substance sending chills throughout his body. Johnny had his hand on the back of Danny's head, pushing him into the ice and smiling as he did it. Mollie and Cooper ran up behind Johnny, attempting to pull him off, only to be shrugged off and slightly thrown back.
