-Alright, this chapter is the official end of the prologue, the last few days were a bit rough, so I didn't really get to write all that much...
-My OC's will appear at a later point of the story again, although this point is far from being reached
-Comments are welcome, thanks to those who put this story on alert/adding it to their favorites, I always appreciate reading about it^^
"Yes", the man seemed to remember now, too, "You were the boy we saw at Baron's home."
The words reawakened memories that Warren had tried to shove aside and he almost cringed, trying desperately to find a way out of this situation.
"What are you doing here on your own?", The woman seemed concerned, but every word seemed like a threat to Warren as he stared at her face, "How about you accompany us back to the city and we drop you off at..."
"I don't need your help", Warren blurted out as he didn't want to hear the rest of that sentence, "I'll go now."
Pressure reminded him of the hand still lying on his shoulder, the man with superhuman strength wouldn't let him leave that easily after all.
Just as Warren was about to form a fireball in his hand, he noticed a figure out of the corner of his eye, standing behind Jetstream.
Then, things started to happen very fast.
Jetstream whirled around, alarmed by a silent tone, in an instant she took off and dashed through the air, spiraling into a safe height.
The man, Warren remembered his father calling him "The Commander", finally let go of him an turned, facing three persons. Warren identified Kyan and Yepa, the third person being a slightly pale guy, a bit older than the other two, with long black hair, done in a ponytail.
Not one word was exchanged as Kyan bared canine fangs, grinning at the superhero standing in front of him. His shape blurred, shifted and darted towards his overwhelming foe, Warren stumbled backwards as the two bodies collided with a thump.
Jetstream, seemingly confident of her partner's strength, wafted at the two remaining guys, clenching her fists, ready to fight them off as soon as they would attack. This, however, never happened as Yepa pointed a hand towards her, halting her flight in an instant.
Warren felt his stomach twist as he saw the hero, hovering above the ground in a fighting pose, her cape congealed behind her, her whole body frozen in time.
Then his eyes went on to Yepa, his pure white face disfigured in a grimace of exertion, blue veins clearly visible under his colorless skin.
"Niall, hurry", the addressed boy left his standpoint and moved towards Warren who was frozen in shock at the sight of this surreal spectacle.
A short gaze towards the commander and Kyan, who was wrapped in shadows as he fought the invulnerable man, with his fangs and glowing eyes he seemed more beast than human, then the dark haired boy continued to stroll towards Warren, who finally regained his senses.
Wrapping his hand in fire, the first blast missed his opponent, who began to fall into a trot, reaching Warren, evading the second fireball, aimed at his head, pressing a thumb at Warren's forehead and sending an electric shock through the boy's body.
Warren stared at Niall's face in astonishment, unable to move, until the thumb, still pressing into his skin, was forcibly removed by the commander.
A glimpse to the right showed Warren the unconscious figure of Kyan, struck down by superhuman strength, as well as the passed out Yepa, who had apparently run out of power after trapping Jetstream for too long.
And then there was the dark haired boy, Niall, who had just done something to him, something bad, Warren was sure of it, but he didn't feel any different.
A chuckle got his attention, Niall was staring at him with apparent satisfaction, a smug grin across his face.
"What did you do?", Warren voiced his thoughts as his grinning counterpart was held by the Commander, then again, louder this time: "What the fuck did you do?"
"You'll see, in time", Niall laughed, as he peered over to the albino, Yepa, who was suddenly standing upright, raising his hands.
Then the three of them were gone, in the blink of an eye, Warren heard the Commander curse, an unusual behavior for the oh-so-perfect man.
A thought formed in his head, why hadn't the white clothed boy frozen time for all of them at the very beginning of the fight, rendering their resistance futile?
But he didn't get to brood over this, as the two heroes turned towards him again.
"We will take you back now, we need to check on our son anyways before we set of to get those three", Jetstream's words reached his ears, yet he didn't acknowledge them until he was already on a train back to his hometown. No, it wasn't even that, only some pace he had lived, a long time ago.
So, only a bit of explanation about the fight scene, Kyan, Yepa and Niall are characters from a story of mine, who I just threw in here to have a story (I was too lazy to invent entirely new characters :( Although they are not really the same persons character-wise as they are in the manga)
Yepa is an albino and blind, is powers are mainly stopping time, although he develops other abilities later in my other story (they probably won't be mentioned here since I want to keep things Sky-Highish with everyone having only one power)
Kyan's power is basically the alteration of his body, this stretches from simple shapeshifting abilities, up to the complete dissolution into shadow/other elements, up to enhancing his bodily functions...
Niall's power is a bit more complex and I will go into that later (wouldn't want to spoil anything...)
