Chapter 143: Jackson’s Resolve!
Inside the private lounge at Sky Tower, Jackson stood by the window, one hand pressed to the cool glass as his friends, James, Nancy, and Bella, watched him—waiting for him to speak, to explain the unspoken dread that had drawn them here in the dead of night.Andrew and Hailey had not been able to make it, as both had gone out on a date before Jackson’s message came. After the beach party, both of them had really become closer and were going steady even if they were not yet officially a couple.James was the first to crack under the tension. He leaned forward in his seat, his voice sharp but edged with worry. “Alright, Jackson—what is it? You called us here, said it couldn’t wait. You’re pacing around like you’re about to drop a bomb. Just say it.”Nancy, perched at the far end of the couch, hugged a pillow to her chest like a shield. “Please, Jackson… We’ve all seen the news. The storm, the bus crash, the people who—” She broke off, eyes glistening. “It wasn’t just a freak accident,
Chapter 142: Emergency Council!
The corridors of the CIA’s Capital Headquarters pulsed with a tension Evans hadn’t felt ever since he arrived at the capital. Security clearance checkpoints were doubled, ID badges flashed under scanners that hummed louder than usual, and officers—usually casual at this hour—marched like soldiers under wartime orders.Evans pushed through the glass doors leading into the conference wing. Inside, the air was stale with dread and urgency. Director Whitaker stood near the end the table, already surrounded by Superintendent Hayes—an imposing figure with steel-gray hair—and a half-dozen division chiefs, each with tablets flickering with fresh reports.Evans nodded stiffly at Whitaker, ignoring the side glances from colleagues who’d heard rumors about his unsanctioned trip to Montgomery for the second time in one week.“Agent Tony,” Superintendent Hayes said, voice echoing in the tense room. “Glad you could join us before the city burns to the ground.”Evans offered no pleasantries and just
Chapter 141: Ghosts and Graves!
The ride back into the capital was quiet, but the silence inside Evans Tony was deafening. No screeching tires, honking cars, or murmuring crowds could drown out the storm brewing within him. He had gone to Montgomery seeking answers—hoping for a sliver of understanding about the mysterious power rising in Jackson Hart. What he found instead unraveled the very foundation of his beliefs.His father had been the first Silver Phoenix in a thousand years. Not just a decorated intelligence officer or a loyal patriot, but a vessel of ancient fire, the dark twin to the Flameborn.The revelation twisted in his chest like a knife.He didn’t go home. He couldn’t. Not when the weight of that truth pulled his soul elsewhere.Instead, Evans found himself turning onto the gravel path of the city’s military cemetery, where the men and women who had supposedly died for country and truth lay buried beneath tidy marble stones. He slowed the car, parked, and stepped out without speaking a word. The over
Chapter 140: Back to Where It All Began!
The wind whispered through the ruins of the old monastery as the trio, Jackson, Mr. Copper and Evans, stood in the middle of the scorched sanctum.Jackson stepped forward toward the blackened altar that Evans had talked about, wondering what would be next, as he wasn’t so sure if he should actually do this or not. But they had come all the way to Montgomery for this, and there was no way he could turn back now.He could feel the heat rising beneath his skin, as though the Flame within him recognized this place. It tugged at his soul with urgency—like it was reaching home.“This is it,” Mr. Copper said softly, placing a hand on Jackson’s shoulder. “The place where the legacy began. Where your father’s life changed forever.”Evans stood off to the side, eyes fixed on the burnt sigils etched into the altar stone. He knew this moment could bring answers—about Philip Hart, about Flameborn, and perhaps… his own father.Jackson placed his palm on the cold surface of the altar.And then—every
Chapter 139: Five Minutes of Truth!
Evans didn’t hesitate as he took his seat even if no one offered him any.“I know you’re the Flameborn, Jackson,” he said. “I know your father, Philip Hart, was the first Flameborn in over a thousand years. And I also know… that Flameborn never wakes alone.”Jackson’s expression didn’t change—but Mr. Copper shifted slightly, a flicker of unease passing across his face.Evans pressed on. “The monk in Montgomery told me the truth. Every time the Flame awakens… the Phoenix follows. Not just any Phoenix. The Silver Phoenix. Its dark mirror.”Jackson’s eyes narrowed, still trying to understand what Evans was driving at. “We already know the Phoenix has awakened. We just don’t know who it’s inside.”“I’m not talking about now,” Evans clarified. “I’m talking about then. Your father’s time.”Mr. Copper’s brow furrowed. “You’re suggesting Philip wasn’t the only one chosen back then?”Evans nodded. “Exactly. The monk said the Flame never comes without its shadow. That means—somewhere during you
Chapter 138: Trey’s Unleashing!
The storm began just after midnight.The skies above the capital cracked open with unnatural thunder—no lightning, no rain at first. Just wind. Furious, howling wind that swept through the streets like a predator. Flags tore from buildings, traffic lights bent under pressure, and rooftops groaned as the air pressure shifted violently.Then came the surge—blinding flashes of white-silver light pulsed through the clouds, illuminating the skyline with a ghostly radiance. And in the center of it all—hovering above the heart of the storm—was a figure.Clad in an aura of pale silver flames that shimmered and hissed like liquid lightning, his body levitated effortlessly. His veins glowed beneath his skin, pulsing with raw power. His eyes, once a gentle brown, now mirrored the storm—pure silver, unblinking, infinite.The Silver Phoenix had awakened fully and it was hungry.Below, chaos reigned.A city bus lost control and swerved into a crowded sidewalk. Power lines sparked and exploded. A co
