In The Eyes of the Beholder

"Oh no," Dorran said under his breath but he still had a smile on his face.

Kaia looked at him without moving her face and took the gun from her pocket. With one clean shot, the bullet hit him on the thigh and he began to double over in pain.

Determination came on Kaia's face as she saw his friends chased at her. She dodged them with fluency and ease taking the gun from the old man in the wheelchair and taking out his bodyguards by hitting them on the jaw.

Alex attempted to go and help her but Dorran just stopped him, "Leave her be."

He looked at the people rushing to attack her but she just avoided them like it was nothing.

"When Kaia is triggered, it is like she becomes an entirely different person. Not just that, Shia has been giving her little lessons for the past couple of days." he told Alex, "Let her do what she needs to do to prove herself."
