"Do you think George can give us the answers we need?" November queried Precisely Macey as they stopped in front of the boy's house at speed. Somehow both Sebastian and Macey had held onto him and he used his quirk to bring them there in less than five seconds, after taking directions from Macey.

"Possibly, he was Timothee's lab partner in chemistry. Although Timothee was very quiet and barely talked, George must've observed something about him." Macey responded

"Should we be doing this?" Sebastian looked at November weirdly as he licked his palm and then smoothed his hair.

"This isn't a photo shoot where you have to look perfect with everything. We're here to interrogate George for a few minutes before leaving to God knows where." Macey paused and then cursed under her breath, "my dad's gonna kill me if he gets home and finds me missing."

"Which is one of the reasons why you shouldn't be here. I can take you home, so you can carry on with your duty by being the nice and respectful daughter who ignores November Calhoun because he's dangerous to hang out with." 

"Sarcasm noted," Macey thinned her lips at him, before shoving her fists into her hoodie pocket.

"So we're doing this?" Sebastian iterated the question he asked a few minutes ago.

"Why not?" Macey eyed him.

"It's not our job to figure things out. And then there's this monster roaming about in human form, who knows if it has swallowed someone else and shapeshifted into them." Sebastian stated matter of factly, "okay, at first I was kinda interested in asking about Timothee because of those men who showed up and took his body, but I'm more scared of what November saw."

"Me too, sort of scared for my family." November chipped in.

"Calm down, let's just speak to George." Macey decided to be man enough to toughen them up.

"Should we ring the doorbell?" Sebastian asked, stretching his hand towards where it was.

"No, it's late and his parents might not find it likely with us." Macey disapproved of it, pulling him back through his collar.

"So what do we do?" November directed this to Macey.

They tiptoed towards the backyard and bent down, before slowly raising their heads to peep.

"This is stupid. I mean we can just tell them we want to talk to their son." Macey rolled her eyes, pulling Sebastian away yet again.

"Shhh," November shushed her, before peeking at the boy's mom who seemed to be busy.

"Uh, I can see his mom, making dinner." He informed his companions in a whisper.

"And what else?" Sebastian made this inquiry, as he glared at Macey.

"Nothing, we should go to his room." November moved away from the window.

"We don't know where his room is." This from Sebastian.

"Up," Macey pointed above them, where was music blaring from the speakers, with a blue light switched on.

"How do we get up there?" Sebastian wondered, looking from November to Macey and Macey to November.

"I've got this," November tried to float up since he didn't know how to fly. It worked weirdly, but not in the right way because he was scared of heights.

"You can't just leave us here like that," Macey had her arms at the corners of her mouth as she yelled in displeasure, and November paused for a moment when his eyes caught something from afar.

"Guys.." he barely finished calling them when he lost his balance and fell on the ground in a loud thud and groaned.

"What did you see?" Macey asked him, rushing to help him up. It was weird how he allowed himself to lose his balance just like that. Something wasn't right at all.

"I think I just saw that monster again, it's walking with a man with a man this." November breathed out and Macey huffed, dismissing his report already.

"Are you serious or you're beginning to imagine things?" Sebastian pulled him up by his shirt and November stared at him with displeasure, panting and puffing. Before he formed his face in all seriousness.

"I'm dead serious. I saw her..it.. laughing heartedly, took this guy by his arm." 

"So you're saying we abandon George and go over to fight that thing?" Sebastian uplifted a brow. "Do you want us to die?"

"No, I just..it will kill again." November gritted out.

"We cannot go ahead to face it like this when we haven't even drafted out any plan," Macey spoke up.

"You're right, Macey." Sebastian agreed with her. "We need to prepare, or we'll die if we go for it. Now I don't have a quirk like you guys, so it'll be easier for me to get killed."

"So we're just gonna let that guy die like that?" November frowned.

There was a pause and it seemed they were all having thoughts about this until November disappeared and returned with the guy he had seen.

"Oh my god," Sebastian exclaimed with enlarged eyes.

"Are you insane?" Macey asked him incredulously.

"What's happening? Who are you guys? How did I get here?" The man looked frightened as he asked them this, his legs were still dancing out of fright.

"Listen, buddy, I just saved your ass," he patted the man's shoulder.

"I don't understand what you did back there, kid." The man swatted November's hand away, before frowning at him, "tell me what the hell happened."

"You wanted to have her for the night? Right? You should count yourself lucky or you'd have kissed your dare life goodbye." November answered.

The man appeared flabbergasted for a moment, while Macey folded her arms across her chest and glared at November.

"I don't understand what the heck you just did," she fumed.

"He needed saving, Mace." November looked at the man who appeared to be blinking in confusion as he stared around him.

"What's happening? Where is this place? How did I even get here?" He asked no one in particular and then stopped to avert his gaze to the only female in the boys' midst, "did I die or something?"

"You sure would've," she replied then glared at November.

"Just calm down, alright? What I saw half an hour ago still haunts me. I couldn't let yet another human get killed that way." 

"Do you want to get us killed?" Macey couldn't hide the displeasure on her face. Because it seemed November was seemingly annoying with this thing he kept talking about. "You saved this guy and now that thing would go after someone else. Probably begin a killing spree."

"I was just trying to save someone's ass, or else this guy could've been swallowed in one gulp and that thing would've taken over his form," November explained himself, hoping Macey and Sebastian would under his actions, but they didn't. They were furious as hell.

"Look who's talking, last time I checked you claimed you wouldn't save lives anymore." With a huff, Macey raised her chin defiantly and stared down at him down her nose.

"It'd look for you right now, and maybe trace us as well because we're with you, Nov-" Sebastian was interrupted from speaking when November rushed to his sight and clamped his hand tightly on his mouth to restrain him from mentioning his name.

"Who are you guys?" The man squinted, "speak and I'll discard the thought of calling the police.

Macey scoffed.

"What's your name and where do you stay?" November looked at him.

"Giles David and I stay in Karcher street, why do you ask? Do you intend to rob me?" The man stared from one teen to the other, and his eyes rested lastly on Sebastian who had this handsome serial killer look.

"Do we look like thieves to you?" Sebastian frowned and then took a step forward to the man who backed away in fear, before holding up a pepper spray, "don't come any closer!" 

"Jesus, I thought pepper spray is made for defenseless females." Sebastian guffawed.

"You're damn right," Macey looked rather bored as she observed the man. "Why do you have pepper spray with you? Doesn't that make you feel demeaning as a guy?" 

"What do you care what I do with my life?" The man fumed, "I saw this nice lady who was beautiful and jovial, we had some fun time and headed for my place and then I found myself here within seconds."

"Liking an alien totally washes you out." Macey shook her head.

"What do you mean by that?" Giles glowered.

"I just saved you, sir. From a human-swallowing, Scene-pausing, shape-shifting alien." November shoved his hands in his pockets as he cast the man a serious look. "If I hadn't shown up, you'd have been consumed in one big gulp,"

"And maybe have your bones vomited in ditches along the road," Macey added with a friendly non-threatening smile that was supposed to be creepy.

There was a pause as Giles looked at them like they were crazy, before bursting into a fit of laughter.

"It's funny, huh?" Sebastian slid his toothpick to the middle of his mouth, before taking another step forward.

"You kids are crazy," Giles wheezed, putting his pepper spray down, "don't tell me you do drugs?" He wiped his mouth with the back of his palm, "what did your friend say again?" He looked at Macey with amusement in his eyes.

"Human-swallowing, Shape-shifting, Scene-pausing alien." She provided, with a slight nudge of her glasses.

"There are no aliens in Marion County, and how do you expect someone as sweet as Suzie to be an alien?" 

"Oh, you even have a name for her?" November snorted and ended up sneezing. This act made him float up high before he controlled his body down with his quirk.

"What in the hell was that? You're one of those kids with the alien virus?" Giles was beyond shocked. 

"I thought you said Aliens do not exist in Marion county?" Sebastian queried with a raised brow.

"Guys, we're still in front of someone's home," Macey pointed out, "you need to get rid of this Giles David, so we can talk to George and hope that monster doesn't look for us since you just stole his second dinner." 

"Karcher street, I think I know that place," November grabbed the man by his arm and then used his speed quirk to drop him off before returning to Macey and Sebastian in less than ten seconds.

Bradley didn't pay any attention to Sheriff Brightside who still held a grudge toward him for killing his deputy three months ago.Bradley was there because of November. Macey had managed to get her act together, she pulled November away from everyone so she could speak with him."Will you save people if aliens show up there?" She asked him, tucking a strand of hair behind her ear."Why, yes. I'm not the Mysterious N for nothing," November gave out a slight shoulder shrug then smiled at Macey."I'll take it that we wouldn't have been best friends if this alien invasion never took place?" "You're right. We were the weird and the bullied."Macey smiled but it didn't reach her eyes."And I have loved you this entire time," she confessed at last, stunning November who had his eyes raised in their sockets.He accidentally flew up to the sky, le

  • 159: To Avenge His Son

    Prosecutor Adams found his way into Chase's ward. It was late in the afternoon when he went there, because he had been choked up with work until he received the news.Tears welled up in his eyes when he saw his son on the hospital bed, covered in bandages with a breathing tube in his mouth.Chase who was vibrant, hothead and always did thing in his own way, looked almost dead. Had life support on him on that very day.It was the worse sight a father could ever see. Way too much for him to bear that he held onto the wall for support, because his legs threatened to give out underneath him.Prosecutor wondered who had done such a thing to his only son. Because it seemed as though they wanted to kill him. They completely destroyed his face.Who it could be. The man couldn't help but ponder deeply over this, whilst fighting against the urge to scream.It was way too much for him to handle that he fought against the urge to cry.

  • 158: The Release

    Noah Allen was released the next day. Prosecutor Adams had made some arrangements and he was let out of the cell.He was glad because he had the power to do whatever he wanted.

There was nothing he could do about it. His superiors had given him the order to release Noah Allen, but there was an incoming case in the following week. Because Scott had already filed a report. He had reached out to the families of Abulterin victims with help from Harriet Calhoun, November's mother.Sheriff Brightside was in a sour mood for the rest of that day, he had thought he would be able to keep Noah locked up there for a couple of weeks, but his superiors reproved this.The flashback of Macey on the floor, in the pool of her own blood was exasperating because it was Noah w

  • 157: Saving Chase Adams

    November wondered if his supersuit had been destroyed by his fake, until he found it at the exact spot he had left it seven days ago. He was relieved upon finding it and seeing that it was still intact, still new like the first time Styles gave it to him. He pulled it out immediately.And hurriedly wore it on and then went out to meet with Captain and Ivar who were already waiting for him.Upon seeing him like that, the others felt he was giving them the Mysterious N aura once more. Something which had been absent for days."Do you think it's necessary for me to come, I mean I'm not powerful like you two?" Captain raised his hands as he looked from November to Ivar and Ivar to November. He just didn't think he was capable of going to fight and rescues Chase. The way he had been chased by the many-faced alien was still haunting his mind and he didn't know what was in front."You'd be able to read minds and alert us what is about to happen. Shift souls if necessary," November provided,

  • 156: The Announcement

    "My mom said we're leaving by next week," November announced this to his squad later that evening. He had managed to get a grip of himself after his mom had spoken to him and told him to feel his emotions because he was a human and not a robot, "we'd be gone for good," he added."So soon?" Macey couldn't even hide the fact that she didn't settle well with this. She knew November was leaving but she didn't expect it to be next week. His announcement came off unexpected."We have no choice, there's too much baggage in this town already," November puffed out a low breath because there was no way he could say it in way it wouldn't upset them. He could see the dissappointment on their faces. It was clear they didn't want him to go, considering the incoming battle with Cyflac Pharmaceuticals. And then the twin holes on the field close to Macey's home was still open."So you want to just go like that? Despite everything?" Captain went over and stood in front of November with his arms folded

  • 155: Caged At Last

    "Let me out of here!" The Many-faced alien shifted into Sebastian and made use of his voice, wanting to fool November."I cannot believe there was never a Sebastian in the first place," Macey said with a huge frown on her face as she rubbed the side of her arm.Whilst November was just silent, not uttering a word because he didn't feel the need to. "This motherfucker has made us seen all hell and back," this was from Captain who pressed the red button once more and the Many-faced alien screamed, from getting tortured by the heat. He shifted into Captain's grandmother and slammed his fists on the glass walls, crying out loud. "Don't look at it, you'll be tempted to free it," Styles said from where he was in his wheelchair. They had managed to catch this alien after going through a whole lot.November curled his fingers into tight hard fists, refraining from punching into a nearby wall because he was still trying to wrap his head around the fact that Sebastian never existed.
