Think twice

Leaving his office to confront intruders in his home was the leader of the polar boys 'King'. The building is in a blackout situation, but due to a power generator, some rooms still have light. Although the whole corridor was dark King could see very well, after all, he's a mutant.

He had asked his people to keep him updated on the movement of the intruders and they did just that. Any guard Jadi and his group met alerted King of his position, so he would know where the intruders are.

King walked through the dark corridor with a green glow in his eyes. This is something not even Christian knew about. The green glow allowed King to see through the darkness, explaining the reason why he is walking normally through the dark corridor.

"Upon what I know they should be heading in this direction. If that's so they should be right here.." King said as he opened the door at the end of the corridor.

As predicted by King, Jadi and his group could be seen. He looked at them with a grin on his face. It was the wrong expression for someone who has eyes on his brother's murderer.

"So, you are the one that killed my brother right," King said.

Christian knew perfectly what he was talking about. He figured if the guy he killed was a Mutant and this one is also a Mutant, and if he is claiming they are his brother's murderer then this guy in Infront of them is related to the Mutant he killed.

"Guys, be on guard this guy is a Mutant," Christian said.

"How do you know that Christian" Eslier said with fear. She is scared because of how Christian told them how dangerous Mutants are. "Look at his forehead those are crystals," Christian said. "Guys he has two crystals, he is incredibly strong. You need to get out of here I would hold him off".

Christian could be seen charging forward, and his feet and hands could be seen glowing. "Girls join up with Gladi am going to help him," Jadi said and dashed forward. The girls hesitated for a while but as they saw Christian pinned King against the wall, they took advantage and entered the next hallway.

King pushed Christian back and stomped him in the stomach which slammed him against the wall of the hallway.

"You think am going to allow them!" King yelled. As he turned towards the direction of the girls and was about to chase after them. Jadi stood in his way and gave him an uppercut he was sent flying. "Then think twice because you are not getting close". Jadi said.

"Christian what's up with that glow," Jadi asked as he took a fighting stance. Christian stood beside him and he also took a fighting stance. "It's pure energy. I infused it into my legs and hands and this is the effect. I don't have much time, this is going to go off and I can't do it again unless I rest so my pure energy is restored" Christian explained. "Don't worry we would defeat him before it's time".

Christian went ahead and threw a punch. King dodged only to receive a big fist from Jadi. Jadi and Christian kept fighting King with their teamwork. King was getting hit here and there without landing any hits of his. This got him frustrated, and he charged forward and punched the face of both of them.

Unfortunately, the glow around Christian's feet and hands dimmed. Their only hope has just been shattered. Even though blood could be seen dripping from King's nose and mouth he still has more in him and they were both getting tired from the frequent attacks. From what they just witnessed they knew is going to take a lot before King goes down. Jadi had tried using his pure energy but because it took a while before he could activate it, he couldn't. The scale of the battle is too quick for him to stay still and gather up pure energy, his opponent wouldn't allow that.

They both stood up and were ready to continue the battle. Before they could do anything, King started to scream in pain. Christian could feel King's energy rising, he warned Jadi about it. Instantly a tail appeared behind King. He ripped his sleeve and scales could be seen running from his forearms to the back of his hand. "So that was what he was doing. He was transforming into a real Mutant!" Christian Screamed.

Right after his transformation King dashed forward toward Christian and aimed a quick fist toward Christian's chin. King's speed has increased drastically after his transformation but still, it is not at a level Christian couldn't dodge. Christian leaned back slightly and King's fist was slammed into the wall. His strength has also improved so the part of the wall his fist landed on was broken. He went on to rain attacks on Christian while leaving Jadi alone.

"Jadi, I don't think he is going to attack you anytime soon, take that time to concentrate and infuse your pure energy I would hold him off" Christian whispered to Jadi through the suit so King can't hear him.

"Christian he is far stronger than you do you think you can hold him off," Jadi said. "Focus and stop worrying about me besides I'm strong myself. It's the only way we can beat him" Christian said and dashed off toward King.

Jadi stood still, closed his eyes, and started to focus so he can infuse the pure energy.

On Christian's side, he wasn't faring well against King. Inside his costume, blood could be seen dripping from the side of his forehead. "Damn, I never thought it would take this long' Christian thought. King punched him on the chin and was sent flying. Christian lay on the floor in pain, he can't even get up. The muscles in his legs are not responding to him anymore.

"I'm going to kill you," King said in a deep tone. King took advantage of this and held his hand together, he jumped and was ready to slam both hands into Christian who is lying there. As his fist was about to slam into Christian it was stopped midair.

A golden figure on one knee with one of the person's arms held up in a place as it blocked the attack. "You make me repeat myself, think twice before you do anything stupid"

****

Eslier and Unnah had reached where Jadi was and could see what he was looking at. They had told him about Christian and Jadi's situation. The girls got to work investigating the metallic wall. Unnah was rubbing her hands on the metallic human face of the wall she mistakenly pushed the nose in. The eye socket of the face pushed out.

Eslier who is looking at the thing was holding her chin and thinking back about something. "Is it me or the thing wants us to insert something into the eye sockets?" Eslier said. She moved closer and rubbed her hands against the eye socket. She tried pushing it in but it wasn't working.

"Jadi hand it over to me," Eslier said stretching her hand back. Jadi knew exactly what she wanted when her hand was stretched. His costume is currently deactivated so he placed his hands inside his pocket and placed the artifact in Eslier's palm.

She slowly inserted the artifact into the eye sockets and entered with ease. The sockets withdrew back and the face was slightly pushed back into the metallic wall. A bright white light shone through the middle of the wall. The wall started to push apart, the left side took the face and a room that looked like a library was what lay beyond the wall.

"Hm, my guess was right after all" Eslier said.
