Chapter 10
Mittens and Rhino were waiting for him. "What happened?" Mittens asked. "Did you beat Vic?"
Bolt nodded. "Yes."
Mittens eyes widened. "Did you kill him?"
"No. I let him go. He lost his powers, he's harmless."
Rhino stared at him, mouth agape. "You beat the bad guy. You are so awesome!" He began buzzing excitedly.
Bolt shook his head. "No. I'm not awesome. Officially my existence is now illegal."
"What? Why?" Mittens demanded.
"They think I'm too dangerous. The people that gave me the powers. They tried to kill me."
Mittens shook her head. "That doesn't mean…"
"Where's Penny?" Bolt interrupted.
"She and her mom evacuated. You don't have to leave do you?"
Bolt sighed. "As long as I am here this is the most dangerous place in the country. I don't want you guys to get hurt."
Rhino stopped buzzing. "So you have to leave?"
"Look Bolt this is crazy!" Mittens complained. "Just let them come. It's better than you running away. We can expl-"Before she could finish Bolt leaned forward and kissed her. She stopped talking.
"What was that for?" Mittens asked.
Bolt smiled. He became serious again. "Take care of Penny while I'm gone. Both of you."
With that Bolt turned and ran out of the room.
Sirens wailed in the distance. The police would again come too late.
Bolt would be long gone.
