The man in the suit got out of the car and looked at the chauffeur, who looked more like a fighter than an actual driver. James looked out from where he was hiding, trying to catch a picture of the man he had fought with. He could tell it was him from the aura he had perceived when his eyes saw the man. "Do you feel his energy?" the man asked, looking at his driver.
"Yes, I can tell it was him," he replied. The man grinned, clenching his fist. "Is he having the soectacles with him?" He turned, looking at the exit. "I don't think he does. I wonder why a boy who could see the future ran mere errands," the soldier-like man replied. "I don't think he knows what he is yet." The man replied, walking into the mansion. "I am going to stay and look around." The chauffeur replied. James remembered that he had fought with him. He remembered what it was like to lose his mother, and he felt like killing the man standing right in front of him. James clenched his fist in anger. He wanted to charge at him, but then he stopped. "What is he doing?" James said, gently studying the man in front of him. "Luke!" the man in the suit shouted at him, but he stopped. "Why didn't he stop him?" James said it with his heart pumping. James's phone rang immediately. He tried to stop it, but he couldn't. Luke looked towards the extreme of the car and saw James. "Gotcha!" he said with a sinister smile on his lips. "Make sure he doesn't leave." Luke's boss said it with a wide grin. For the first time, they were closer to the spectatles. James knew he had done it before. He had bested the man in front of him, and he would do it again. He threw his scootter to the front and landed on it with his legs. Luke's eyes glowed, showing a blue light that scared James. He knew he had to think fast, and he was smart. James felt his eyes burn, and suddenly they changed color. Luke was taken back; he remembered how James had knocked him out and wondered how he did it. But with what he had seen, he knew he had the power of Jason, his father. James superspeeded on his scooter and managed to scale through without Luke catching him. He was about to drive into the busy street when Luke grinned. "I am sure you are dying to know who your father was. Don't you remember? I killed him!" Luke shouted, making James stop half-way. His eyes, glowing red and menacing, looked at Luke. James knew he was not ready. Tears flooded his eyes as he stared at the supposed killers of his mother and father. He now knows who killed his parents. "I will find you!" James shouted as he scooted away from the company. He cleaned his face as he drove back to the chicken factory. "You are late!" James boss said with anger. "I am not; I delivered the package, and I even got the money. I.." James hasn't finished his words before his boss removes the helmet from his head and says, "You are fired!" He threw a brown envelope at him and walked into the shop, leaving James standing there looking like a zombie. Jame checked the envelope and saw he was paid for just two weeks. He wanted to talk, but the stern look on his boss's face made him walk out of the store. He remembered what he heard back at the company and wondered what the man in suit meant because he hadn't discovered who he was. James remembered that he had struck the hospital walls, and they caved in. "Am I some superhero?" James asked himself as he trekked back home. He was supposed to be in school that day, but he needed the money. He has been fending for himself ever since his mother died. James landed on the couch and closed his eyes. He was feeling tired from the day's work and needed to rest. He closed his eyes,, but then he saw Luke again. I am going to find you. You can run from me forever" Luke shouted, and James openeded hieyes.es. He was sweating, and his heart was pounding heavily. He looked at the wall clock and saw that the time was almost midday. James got up and quickly ran a few laps. He has been trying to stay fit ever since he fought with Luke. For some reason, the time seems not to be on James side. He got back home and got ready for school. He was about to leave, but then he decided to take the spectacle along with him. He wanted to use it, but he needed to keep it with him. He knew Luke might come looking for him. It was just a matter of time. James strapped his backpack to his bag as he walked into the school. He looked around and saw that all eyes were on him. He hasn't been to school since his mother died. He was about to walk into his classroom when he heard a familiar voice taunting him. James looked back and saw it was Stiles. "ow! DDo't tell me you have been working on yourself. How many pushups have you been doing eevery day? Is this all just to have my ass kicked?" Stiles said with a funny smile on his face.. "I don't want any trouble, Stiles. I will just advise you to leave me the hell alone." James said, and, and he gently turned his back and walked. "Don't you walk away from me. I am still taking." Stiles yelled at him. One of Stiles bullies threw a glass bottle at him, and the bottle hit James on the head. Many of the students gasped as blood trickled down his face. James clenched his fist in anger and closed his eyes. He felt his body burn with energy within, and suddenly it stopped. James gasped,' Not now!" He said underneath his breath.

James spun in a slow circle, heart still pounding from the escape, his palms pressed against the golden walls that refused to budge. The Vault pulsed softly with light, each glyph lighting up like a slow heartbeat, humming with time-bound power he could barely comprehend.He sank to his knees, forehead resting against the warm metal.“Training?” he muttered. “I didn’t sign up for training. I came to save my parents, not get locked in some… temporal tomb.”A faint sound answered him—like a breath through glass. Then, without warning, the room darkened. A hologram flickered to life in the center of the chamber, forming a figure draped in ceremonial armor, etched with the symbols James had seen in old Guardian texts Striker made him read on the run.“Guardian Heir,” the figure said, its voice a blend of male and female tones, both human and more. “You have arrived at the Threshold of Purpose. Before you lies the path to reclaiming the Continuum.”James stood, backing up warily. “I don

Flames licked the walls of the entryway, casting jagged shadows across the dusty floor as the heat surged toward them. James’s hands trembled slightly as he held the blaster Striker had thrown to him. It felt too light to do any real damage, and yet somehow, it vibrated faintly in his grip like it held a life of its own."Through the back!" Striker barked, already moving.The smoke curled thickly as they rushed down a narrow hallway, Striker kicking open a half-rotten wooden door that led to a hidden stairwell. The ground beneath them rumbled, the Seeker's arrival twisting the air into something unnatural."Where does this lead?" James coughed, eyes watering as he tried to stay close."To the tunnels," Striker replied. "Old railway lines that cut under the city. Carlos used to use them to smuggle tech between timelines before the Time Guardians locked them.""And now?"Striker gave him a grim smile. "Now we unlock them."As they descended, the flickering lights faded behind them, repl

James and Strikers drove very fast through the dark alley. "Have we lost them?" James asked looking at Striker who was driving like a maniac. " We are not safe until we are there. " There? What the hell are you talking about?" James asked. " The Seeker. It knows you have the spectacle now and I bet he is on his way." Striker shouted. " Seat belt!" James drew the seat belt over his chest. His face was a little tensed wondering what Strikers meant by the word strikers. A lightning flashed right behind them. " He is here." Strikers said, cursing under his breath. " I knew this was going to happen. We might need to go see someone." Striker said immediately as the Seeker sped with his motorbike right behind them. James looked to see someone cloaked running after them. " Who are we going to see? You don't need to hide anything from me now, Striker. You said you wanted to help, then tell me where we are going too?" Striker took a sharp bending trying to lose their pursuer. " C
Chapter thirty one
Selena lifted her head slowly, the weight of the chains digging into her bruised wrists. Her mouth was dry, the taste of metal lingering at the back of her tongue. Every breath was a struggle, every movement a test of endurance. But her eyes—those sharp, defiant eyes—never wavered from Reginald’s."You should ask your men,” she said, her voice raspy but unwavering. “They were the last ones to touch it.”Reginald’s jaw twitched. He stepped forward, the polished leather of his shoes clicking against the stone floor like a judge’s gavel. “Do not play games with me, Selena. You think you’re clever? Risking your life for that boy? For what? Love?"He spat the last word like it disgusted him.Selena said nothing. She simply looked at him—truly looked. Not as the tyrant she had feared growing up, not as the cold-blooded collector of relics. But as a man desperate to control what was slipping through his fingers."You think I wanted this life for you?” he asked suddenly, voice lowering. “I bu

Reginald's loud noise echoed through the hallway as his men sprung into action. Each grabbing weapons they could lay Thier hands on. " Make sure she is unharmed. I need her to explain why she will betray me like that!" Reginald shouted at the man in front of him. " I will carry out your order with utmost discretion." he said bowing before heading out. Reginald stood at window looking as each cars disappeared into darkness with only one thing in his mind. The hope that his daughter hasn't given the spectacle back to James. ******************************************************************The cold night air clung to Selena's skin like sweat as she darted through the hospital’s back entrance, heart thundering against her ribcage. She looked back frantically hoping and praying they were not right behind her. The satchel with the Spectacle was pressed tightly to her chest, the relic burning faintly through the leather as if aware of its surroundings. She knew her father's men weren’
Chapter twenty nine
The room was tense as both father and daughter stared at each other. Selena flinched at her father’s words but quickly masked her expression with a calm smirk.“In love?” she echoed, standing slowly, pacing toward the window. “You give James too much credit.”Reginald wasn’t convinced. “I’ve seen that look before, Selena. The same look your mother had when she thought I didn’t notice her slipping away.”Reginald asked Selena how her mother left them for another man. "She left at my weakest, but then I looked like I had something she had never thought I was going to have. Power." He had told Selena the story over and over again that it was beginning to get boring. She turned sharply. “Then maybe you should’ve paid more attention.”The words hung between them like ice.Reginald narrowed his eyes. “If you're letting your emotions cloud your judgement, you’ll end up ruining everything. We have come too far to just let everything go to waste."“No,” Selena said coldly. “I’m trying to sav
