Chapter Seven:

Stephen took one step back for every step John took forward causing John to laugh outright when he noticed. The other trainees glared at Stephen while keeping their focus on John as he moved closer.

"Trainees will act like breakouts, while John will act like an ULTRA agent. He won't use any powers, while you have permission to use yours. Begin." Jedikiah said.

Stephen immediately walked forward with his arms in a surrender position. The other trainees looked at him furiously, "what are you doing?" one of the trainees asked.

Stephen continued walking forward slowly and then allowed John to take his hands and pretend to cuff them.

"I wasn't a dumb breakout then and I won't be one now," Stephen retorted causing both Jedikiah and John to laugh. Stephen made his way to Jedikiah and turned to watch John begin circling the other two trainees.

The fight didn't last long, with John knocking one trainee unconscious with a single punch and then he waited until the second teleported behind him for a sneak attack and ducked as the trainee lunged at him using his momentary confusion to grab the trainees arms and restrain them behind him. It was all over in less than a minute. Once Jedikiah nodded John let the guy go and made his way back over to Jedikiah and Stephen, picking up his jacket and putting it on. Jedikiah turned and left the room without a word, leaving John to follow and Stephen to wake up the unconscious trainee.
