A/n: Make sure to check out my DeviantArt page named XJ16. I have a surprise there for you guys.

"Computer! What is our current progress on Grisvore?", Adam asked demandingly awaiting a response.

A holographic diagram appeared before Adam as he nonchalantly put his hands behind his back. The pulsating orb of dark energy had grown tentacle like appendages that wriggled around it's form agressively.A little disturbing to witness in the least, but it meant success in his eyes.

"Grisvore's Incubation Period is 90 percent complete."

"How much longer until Grisvore is Awoken?", Adam questioned.

"Approximately 24 hours.", Computer replied. "If you don't mind me asking, What exact diabolical plans do you have once Grisvore awakens from his slumber? I'm sure you're aware of the chaos and destruction Grisvore is capable of once aware of it's surroundings. I assume you must have consequential plans and precautions you'll take in the moment."

Adam huffed at the machine's unexpected prodding for such vital information. Not that there is much this simple minded computer could do if he revealed his true plans.

"Well if you must know, I plan on combining my own power with Grisvore's of course. You could say that I merely plan on becoming one with him. That feeble brother of mines would've been apart of this aswell, but it seems the locals have already infected his mind with their lies. So I've officially declared that he'll fall with the rest of them.", Adam cold-heartedly explained to the machine.

As far as he was concerned he'd have no trouble putting his "brother" down along with the rest of the nuisance on this dunghill of a planet. "Once my goal is completed I'll become the new god of this world! No longer will I bend to my mother's will! I will be more than she could ever dream to be!", The ill-mannered boy sneered as a sudden build up sent him up the walls with anticipation and delirium. "Oh! I can just imagine it now!"

Song Name: Castle by Halsey (Some Lyrics will be altered)

Sick of all these people talking,

Sick of all this noise!

Tired of my all my brother's whining,

Sick of being poised!

Now my cover is open wide!

Daring for someone to breach it,

Already choking on my pride!

So there's no use plotting against it,

I'm head straight for the castle!

They wanna make me their king,

There's an old man sitting by the throne,

Suggesting that I, probably shouldn't be so mean!

I'm headed straight for the castle,

They've got the kingdom locked up!

And there's an old man sitting by my throne,

Saying I should, probably keep my little mouth shut,

Straight for that castle!

Oh, all of these minutes passing,

Sick of feeling used!

If you think you can break these walls down,

You bet! You're gonna get bruised!

Now my cover is open wide!

Daring for someone to breach it,

Already choking on my pride!

So there's no use plotting against it...

I'm headed straight for the castle!

They're gonna make me their king,

And there's an old man sitting by my throne,

Suggesting that I probably shouldn't be so mean,

I'm headed straight for the castle!

They've got my kingdom locked up,

And there's an old man sitting by my throne,

Saying I should probably keep my little mouth shut!

There's no use plotting against it [x4]

I'm headed straight for the castle!

I'm gonna be their new king!

And all the peasants below,

Will have nowhere to go!

And then they'll have to bow down to their new king!

I'm headed straight for the castle!

They got my kingdom locked up!

And all the fools below,

Will have nowhere to go!

And they'll bow down to their new king!

-Random Alleyway-

Where were these little miscreants hiding? If Bolt failed to catch these two that would mean horrible things are to come. "Dammit! This makes no sense, I've searched London top to bottom and still no leads.", Bolt rambled to himself in a fit a of frustration. "Where the hell could they be?"

"Right here.", A voice called from behind.

Bolt quickly turned his gaze in the direction of the voice and found just the two tyrants he was looking for, well one of them atleast. Judging by the long hair and blue eyes he could easily identify this one as Aiden. His brother must be hiding so they could gang up on him at the last minute.

"Must be my lucky day.", Bolt commented getting into a fighting stance. "Where's that brother of yours? I know you two are planning on ambushing me."

"Adam is no longer any brother of mine. I've had enough of his threats towards me and my friends.", Aiden stated. "I don't wanna be seen as the villain anymore. That's why I searched for you."

Bolt suddenly stopped and blinked in confusion, "Why did you search for me? Me and you don't have good history remember."

"That's because he needs your help.", A little girl replied stepping out into the open. A young boy and teenage husky as well showed themselves. "He told us all about Adam's plans. Your the only person who can potientally stop Adam."

"Right now underneath us, a monster is being awoken. A monster capable of destroying everything we know and love. If we don't stop it, that could be the end of London and even the rest of the world. Adam plans on fusing his own power with that thing so he can become the "New God" of this world. Like I said, only you and I can stand a chance against Adam at the moment.", Aiden desperately explained.

"Please Mr. Bolt! We can't do this alone.", Anna pleaded.

"Yeah.", Hunter agreed begging alongside her.

Bolt trying to decipher all of this new information sighed to himself. This whole time he wanted any possible leads and information that could help him in his mission, now he's got it.

"Fine.", Bolt answered. He then glared at Aiden who felt somewhat intimidated by the look he was recieving. "If I get just a hint of betrayal from you, this temporary partnership of ours is over."

"I understand.", Aiden said

Bolt pulled back the right sleeve of his shirt revealing a very advanced looking wristwatch. He then proceeded to press some buttons on the tiny device in an orderly fashion and waited for a couple of brief seconds.

It was then his sister Penny's face formed on the tiny screen of the watch. "Bolt? What is it?", She asked

"Well, I've finally got some good news at last.", He announced with relief. "Meet me at 101 Dalmatian Street."
