Andrea Mark said as he warmed up Energy, thousands of strands of metal in the palm of his hand came out at the same time, and so it formed for a moment like a spider silk covering the sky above. He said:
- With this power enough to outdo you?
- That's right—more than us.
Beatrix Henry voiced confirmation but then added one more sentence:
- But he almost died, and let us save his life.
- You...!
- How am I?
- It's not working.
Mark whispers like he's good for sure, but no one admits it. From the first day he discovered Energy, he was in the top secondary. If not, because Esther William hit the power source that time, he might have gone up by now. He don't know if it is.'
