(WASHINGTON DC)

(THE UNDERGROUND FACILITY)

Everyone here was busy with one thing or the other, and Mr. Thomas Pearce was walking alongside three other doctors, heading towards the room where Sophie was once confined with the others; the ‘Psycho Project’ room; as written above the door.

They went in and saw the force field which covered the seven had been shut down, and they were now free, but not yet awake.

They were surprised by this, and one of the doctors quickly rushed to one of them; about to switch on the force field, but the occupant of that bed suddenly grabbed his arm; holding his wrist tightly.

The others moved back in fear, while the one on the bed suddenly snapped the doctor’s wrist; he yelled in pain, as he also bled at the same time.

This guy stood up, and as the doctors were about to leave with Mr. Thomas, a lady stood up and stretched her right hand towards the door, making it hard and heavy that they couldn’t open it.

The lady walked towards the guy and kissed him; both of them must know each other somewhere.

The five others also stood up one by one, and were staring at each other because they knew not one another; except two ladies.

The guy who stood up first turned to them and said, “Join me… and let’s kill these men”

His girlfriend pinned the two doctors and Mr. Thomas to the wall by pointing her hands towards them; she smiled sinisterly with pleasure on her face.

One of the five others; a guy walked towards the first one saying, “No… we won’t join bad guys like you”

He tried to punch the first guy, but dodged his attack and grabbed his neck; choking him so firmly that he died in 10 seconds.

The four others were shocked by this, and as another tried to attack him again, he punched him backwards, but before he could go far, he sped towards him and pulled him back by the shoulders, and then pulled his shoulders apart; before snapping his neck.

       “You three… you can still join me”, he said coldly.

The three others were just one guy and two ladies. The guy smirked and said to the ladies, “stay behind me…” His name was Tom Hill.

He suddenly made a long silver sword out of his hand; pointing it at the guy.

The latter scoffed and as he came at the former, Tom elongated the silver sword which was from his hand, and while the bad guy dodged his attack, he made the silver sword bend to made a circular turn, and then slit the bad guy’s throat.

He fell to the ground, but wasn’t dead; and his girlfriend yelled angrily, turning her hands towards Tom, but Tom quickly shot two silver daggers from his hands to her shoulders, then she was pushed backwards after being hit; and then  pinned against the wall by the silver daggers which were hot, and burning her wound at the same time.

He turned to the guy on the floor and said, “You can call me… Hot Silver”

He placed his hand on the guy’s face, feeding him with liquid hot silver till he died and became solid in him.

The ladies clapped their hands while one of them who had a blonde hair spoke, “Nice way to finish that…”, and the other who had a short black hair replied, “Yeah…”

Mr. Thomas turned to the lady who had been pinned to the door; about to attack her, but the one with a blonde hair stretched her hand towards his direction; and he was raised off the ground while he couldn’t control his movement. “You put us here… you’re as bad as she is”

     The other one whooshed towards Mr. Thomas; leaving blurs and yellow streaks of lighting behind herself, 

     “We’ll spare you…”, she said.

Tom walked towards her and asked, “I’m Tom Hill, so what are your names?”

      “Naomi Green”, the speedster lady with black hair answered, while the other with blonde hair also spoke, “And I’m Daniella Tucker… do as you wish to this lady, but don't kill her”, she said while staring at Mr. Thomas and pointing at the one pinned on the wall.

(OUTER SPACE)

(UNIDENTIFIED LOCATION ON A PLANET)

Photo Power landed on the surface and looked around; the sky was yellow, and the soil red like clay, but soft like sandy soil in texture. Plant was found wanting in this particular spot he landed. He began to walk towards a direction which his guts led him. With no fear of encountering anything. 

He finally arrived at a cave. Looking to his left, right and back before going in. From outside, the cave was dark, but as he entered, it was bright. With yellow light bulbs and lanterns almost everywhere. This place was too quiet that it could freak out a simple person.

Photo Power finally saw someone; a man seated on a chair which looked like a throne, he walked towards the man but kept a distance of about 10 feet. The man raised his head revealing his face. He was quite old, but not too old, and he had grey hair and beard. The man was clad in a purple royal garment and was holding an unsheathed sword with one hand.

      “Are you…?”, Photo Power was asking but interrupted by the man, “Yes. The one you’re searching for. There’s no one else left on the planet to search for... They all died by this sword. So, it’s me”

Photo Power smiles mischievously and replied, “I see… you really are the one”

      “What brings you here?” the man asked.

Photo Power began to walk towards him slowly; still smiling. He was up to something, “To take that sword from you”, he answered.

       “I see Greed!”, the man smirks, “I know who you are… and what you are… a bastard son of a…”

      “SILENCE!”, Photo Power yells angrily, “My father accepted me, and told me the path to follow and I’ll be a god”, he chuckles sinisterly, but the man snapped back, “You fool… You’ll never be a god. As for my sword, make an attempt and you’ll be one of those who are here”

      “I’ll make this very quick”, Photo power said confidently, “Whatever you do… I’ll copy and use against you with extras. And besides I’ve copied powers that can end you with one hit”

      “Then you don’t know who I am”, the man replied, “Go… find out first before you come back”

      “Ah… you think I’m stupid?”, Photo Power chuckles, “I’m not. And I’m taking that sword”

He stretched his right hand towards the man, and a ball of light generated around his hand; like a star; shooting it directly at the man, but the man only raised his sword and blocked the star ball slicing it in two as if it were an orange. 

The two pieces then turned into small black holes. The man directs the black holes at Photo Power, and while he ducks one, the other disappeared and appeared behind him to suck him in.

A large black hole appeared outside the planet; outer space and Photo Power falls out of it into a punch from a very large hand which came out of another black hole. He was thrust farther and while the black hole disappears, he saw the man mid-air before him, not with his sword, “I’m still on my throne with my sword, I’ll give you a chance to fight this version of myself”

      “Raggghhhh”, Photo Power yells and boosted towards him shooting solar flares at the man as well as light beams from his eyes. The man was blocking all the attacks with one hand like it was nothing. Photo Power gasps in surprise. He blazed green fire, and shot like a rocket at the nearby man. Delivering speed punches; so fast one wouldn’t be able to count nor see clearly what was going on. But the man was still blocking all the punches like they were nothing.

He suddenly decided to attack, and he drove a punch through Photo Power’s stomach; the impact sent out a massive shock wave. Photo Power wasn’t pushed back by the punch but his stomach was pushed in; He coughs blood which flowed down from his mouth.

     Who the hell is the guy? He would think. How is this even possible?

The man pulled back his hand, then with a finger he pushed Photo Power back and he was suddenly sent flying without control; rolling backwards as he was breaking through dimensions from one to another till he finally found himself land in a desert.

      “No… No…”, he coughs. 

He was staring at the sky of Earth which he was now on. He saw the face of the man in the sky and speak to him, 

      “This will get you nowhere… You’re nothing to me, your greed knows no bound. And it will lead you to your death”

The face disappears while Photo Power’s eyes closed slowly; “that… power…”. His vision dimmed and he fell unconscious.

(LONDON, ENGLAND)

(HOUSE OF GATES COMPANY)

Mr. Stewart was speaking while everyone else was present, “I got a call that the super humans we found have broken out; three of them died while the others who saved the owners of the facility escaped. Two ladies and a guy”

      “Really? We could get help from them too”, Robin suggested, but Sophie smirks and replied, “They’re probably useless. We don’t need them”

      “Yes, we do”, Felicia snapped back at her, and Stanley added in support, “they’re three… we don’t know their powers. Finding out wouldn’t do us any bad. We should find them and do this together”

      “Do you even know how powerful our enemies are? They’re just gonna die!”, Sophie yells

Dr. Trisha hums and replied, “How about you handle it alone, Mrs. goddess”, she stared at Sophie before she continued, “Cause our lives are on the line too… we’re trying to protect the world”

      “Worlds”, Stanley cuts in

    “Yeah, thanks…”, Trisha Morgan continued, “We’re saving worlds; I’m just a doctor, but something tells me I have to stay and help with this”

Mr. Gates also added, “Or you can work alone and beat them yourself”, directed at Sophie.

Sophie sighs deeply while Felicia stood up and walked past her and also past Robin; staring at him angrily before staring at Mr. Allen. Angry because she blames Mr. Allen now for her mom and brother’s death.

      “How do we find the three we’re talking about?”, Mr. Gates asked

Stewart nods his head and handed an iPad over to Mr. Gates; the pictures of the three were in view. “We’ll find them… all we need is the right tech”

       “I think we can do that here…”, Mr. Gates replies sharply.  “Then let’s give it a try”, Stewart said.

Naomi Green; the speedster lady who was one of the three was now in a room; maybe a reservation. She laid her back on the bed and was smiling; she felt free, she stood up suddenly realizing the room was untidy. She whooshed around the room speedily; putting everything in place before she sat again with a smile on her face, but it was cut short as she heard a voice out of nowhere, 

     “Naomi Green… you’re a chosen speedster”

It looked like it was coming from her head and she felt a sharp pain like a pin was being used to poke her brain.

      “What the fuck is this”, she cussed

Then before her, a figure of lightning slowly began to appear out of nothing and the voice was now coming from it, saying, 

      “Use your powers for the right thing… it’s a gift, for you were chosen to be… a Racer… The Swift Racer”
