"Five?
"Lexa?" We both shared a smile as we pulled each other in for a long, overdue hug. "Where have you been?" He asked me in disbelief.
"It's kind of a long story," I said with a shrug. "Basically, I was sent back to my past, which is technicall...

I was about to question his suddenly worried expression, until the man in front of us pushed me onto the ground. My body hit the floor roughly from the unexpected motion. He grabbed Five by the collar and slammed him against the wall. My eyes widened as I watched him teleport behind the man with the white hair and kick his leg in. Five jumped onto his back after he fell to the ground and began to strangle him. The man grabbed ahold of Five's shoulders and flipped the boy over himself and onto the ground.
"Who the hell is this guy?" I exclaimed as I stood up again. Five got back up to his feet quickly and grabbed my hand, teleporting us to the opposite end of the hall.
"One third of the Swedes," Five answered.
My eyes rolled. "Perfect timing," I remarked.
When the man turned around, Five tried to use his powers again to teleport but he appeared to be out of energy. "Oh, shit," Five spoke lowly. Our eyes slowly stared at up the Swedish man, who had a menacing look on his face.
I turned towards Five and sent him a confident smirk. "Don't worry," I said. "I got this."
I kicked my foot up and phased out of my heel, catching it in my right hand, while I just ditched the other one behind. The Swedish man and I were at complete ends of the hall, walking swiftly towards each other until the two of us both broke out into a sprint. My legs moved at full speed as I clutched onto my heel with my right hand. The Swedish man dropped to the floor as he attempted to sweep my legs out from under me. I quickly threw myself into a handless front flip over him. I was thankful that Silas had pushed me to learn some new techniques.
Before the Swedish man was able to get up and turn around, I ran and jumped onto his back. The man spun around, trying to shake me off but my grasp on him was too tight. I took my new heel and stabbed him in the back of his shoulder. Then, I pulled the shoe out and stabbed him again in another spot. Blood spurred out once I removed the show. The crimson color squirted upward onto my face. I squeezed my mouth and eyes shut as I cringed. That might not have been my brightest idea.
The man let out a cry of pain and instinctively rammed his back into the wall, causing me to loose my hold on him. The wind was knocked out of me as I fell onto the floor from the impact. He began to walk towards me as I crawled backwards on the floor, waiting for him to get a bit closer, until I kicked myself off the ground into a backwards flip. The Swedish man dodged my attack as he stepped backward quickly. I was on my feet again with my fists held up in the air now.
"Lexa! Behind you!" Five called out. I was too late to act though because another Swedish man came up and wrapped his arm around my neck. He began dragging me down the hall as my feet desperately tried to plant my body down. I could feel myself losing air the tighter his hold on my neck became.
