The New Stick Figures

Chapter 7

After a few minutes the cheering died down and The Pure One walked over to The Second Coming. "I think now it's time that you know about the full extent of your powers Second." She said, a smile on her face. Second turned his full attention to her, everyone else watching, curious about what else Second could do.

"There is a reason why you are called "The Second Coming", and that is because your powers are the "second coming" of everyone else's powers." Pure announced. Everyone, except The Chosen One and Second, were completely taken by surprise once again. If Pure was telling the truth then that meant Second just might be even more powerful than The Chosen One!

"The only powers that you don't have that are a copy of somebody else's are my powers, and that's because I was created after you. It wouldn't make any sense for you to have my powers as well." Pure stated. The Second Coming just nodded in response, looking both serious and determined.

"Plenty of the powers that you have are stronger than those who had them before you, such as your fire powers. While The Chosen One can make his fire you can control the flames far more than he can and you can make the flames even hotter than normal. Hot enough to melt steel. It is next to impossible for you to lose control of your fire powers Second." Pure explained.

In response Second lot a fire on his hand and let it float just above his hand. The flame was small yet it was clearly so hot that everyone was starting to feel the heat, even The Chosen One. The Second Coming was the only one who didn't seem bothered by the heat at all.

If the fire was too hot for even The Chosen One to handle then Second must be making the flame even hotter than any flame that The Chosen One has ever created. After a moment The Second Coming made the flame float over to a spot on the ground that was a few yards away from the group. As soon as the flame touched the ground it melted the dirt.

Everyone except Pure, Second and The Chosen One stared in absolute shock. That tiny little flame that The Second Coming had made had been hot enough to melt the ground. Their shock wore off quickly, realizing that, minus the fact that Second clearly had more control over the flame than Green, Yellow, Blue and Red had seen The Chosen One has ever had, The Chosen One might be able to make a flame just as hot. Maybe, maybe not, but he might.

Pure rested one hand on The Second Coming's shoulder, turning him towards her. "Second, it's important that you don't just focus on your fire. There is so much more that you can do. More than anyone." She told him. "Try to use other powers. It's also important to know that some powers that The Chosen One and any other stick figures with powers have that you don't have. Such as The Chosen One's laser eyes."

She turned towards their friends, who had just been watching for a while now. Pure then turned to The Chosen One. "Are there any stick figures living around here? Anybody who could possibly be put in danger by anything that may happen?" Pure asked. The Chosen One nodded in response.

"There are many stick figures living around here. Stick figures like all of us who have been created and found that it is much better to live in the internet than on their creator's computer." The Chosen One answered. A small amount of worry seemed to fill Pure's gaze.

"That's not good. We don't want to put any more lives in danger than our own. We'll have to make sure that once we find whoever created those Virabots that nobody is anywhere near where we find them to end up getting hurt." Pure announced.

Everybody nodded in agreement. Nobody should end up getting hurt, or worse, from this. Although The Chosen One, The Pure One and The Second Coming were all more than likely going to get hurt, it was more than likely that none of them would end up getting killed.

"We should start searching for the one who sent those Virabots. But first we have to find out who they are." Pure declared. "That's easy. I know exactly who made them." The Chosen One replied. Everyone snapped their attention to Chosen, curiosity burning in their eyes.
