BOOK 3 CHAPTER 15: THE DAM
“What do you mean the potential to become a pillar? That doesn’t make sense, pillars are powerful beings, they are selected by the President himself as they also serve as the guardians of this world and its continents.” Vincent argued.
“Technically, yes.” Jonathan answered.
“And with their strength and powers, they are given a city or a land that would become their own realm or territory. They also have a certain power that allowed them to be on their current position. So, it’s not possible for me to—”
“You doubt yourself too much, Vincent. Besides, you do not need to have that power anymore. Becoming a pillar does not mean that you have to be the most powerful, as it is sometimes acquired through merit.”
“But—”
“Anyway! Let us proceed in this training. You have got to finish this before your mission begins.”
Despite his curiousness, Vincent just nods as he has no choice here. Him becoming strong before his mission is much more important that what he is about to ask. Jonathan then begins his lecture. He told Vincent that powers are like a river. A river flows and it is coming from a water source from a far away place. That’s how powers work. From the core, the power flows through the veins of the users…some says that it flows along with the blood or oxygen. There’s no explanation for it yet, really. So, the first lesson of Vincent is going to be…to learn how to let his earth powers flow through his veins freely. As of the moment, the power of earth is restricted and is struggling to let itself flow through the veins of the kid, however, right now, Vincent might have a bit of ease to do it as Jonathan has talked to Flames about the situation.
“Try and let the earth power flow through your veins. Let me know if you have the same feeling as the one you feel when using your fire powers. Now, begin.”
Vincent nods and then began his task. A very…painful task.
A whole week has passed, and Vincent is still on the first phase of his training.
“You are straining your core too much! Let it flow freely! Don’t force it!” Jonathan yells as Vincent is failing once more.
“I’m…fucking…trying!” Vincent curses as he then drops on his knees, breathing heavily.
“It’s been a week now, Miles. You haven’t improved, even though I gave you a ton of pointers!”
“Well, I don’t think that your pointers are doing a damn thing!” Vincent yelled as he then stood up to regain his posture to do it again.
Jonathan then stopped him and told Vincent to do something else. He is to disregard every tip he received since the beginning of his training. Instead, Jonathan then pressed the place where the core is placed and it instantly answered. Vincent’s earth power then covered him whole, and now, he is just like a earth golem, covered in rocks and all that.
Vincent tried to speak, but his words were muffled, and all Jonathan can hear was some kind of gibberish things.
“Now, since you are not getting anywhere earlier. This might do the trick.” Jonathan says.
It tuns out that he forced the earth powers out of the core and let it flow through the veins of Vincent freely. Despite having it flowing freely in Vincent’s body, it’s not the same as when one is in control. It is because the power is flowing wild and then free. To Jonathan, this might be the only way Vincent can control his powers.
“Now, control it with everything you can, and if you don’t—”
“If I don’t?”
“Then the flowing power through your veins will be the one to kill you by destroying you from the inside and will cause you to explode after it collapses all of your organs. Cruel, but this is the most effective training I could think of for you.”
“Are you crazy?! If I die, then it will all be over!” Vincent argued.
“Yes, if you die, then you’re not the one.” Jonathan says.
He slowly went back to his cell and just sat there while Vincent kneels in pain and receives this hot sensation all over his body. As if his blood is made of fire. It’s burning him. Unbearably painful. Vincent screamed so loud that the other heinous criminals are celebrating. As for them, it’s finally time for them to hear the cries of pain of a hero which put them all in here. They were jumping, whistling, and laughing. Laughing at Vincent who is now suffering the pain of having his power flowing through his veins without control and with the possibility of causing his death.
“You have at least an hour to figure it out. Good luck.” Jonathan went back to sleep as if there is no boy screaming in pain beside him.
Vincent rolled all over the place trying to put out the heat in his body. He is a man of fire himself, and yet, the heat he feels made him think that he doesn’t have the power of fire.
“I need to do something. Fast!” Vincent thought to himself.
He stood up from the ground and focused his mind. He now sees the power flowing through his veins. It’s like a raging river. A pool of lava racing down the volcano’s slope. And it wasn’t that long when this river became like a real one. This sight has caused him to have a severe headache that made him want to break contact with his concentration. Now that Vincent has seen the problem, the only question is: How do you stop a raging river?
Vincent tried various ways to stop it, however, it’s not something to be stopped. That’s when he remembers that power is not meant to be stopped.
“It’s meant to be controlled and distributed properly!” Vincent blurted out in the real world.
Jonathan, who was actually still awake heard what Vincent, says. He smiled as the kid has finally figured it out. Vincent visualized a dam. Because a dam controls the water and distributes it evenly and properly. That is why, Vincent might build a dam.
“But, how?” Vincent asked himself, “Wait—earth power!”
Vincent then puts his hand in this raging river and its hotness may melt Vincent’s hand later, but it doesn’t matter to him right now.
“Okay, buddy. Let’s work together, okay? Help me! Because if you don’t, how am I going to use you to your full potential? How about it? You help me now, then I’ll help you release your full potential. I will make sure that both of us will be powerful, trust me!” Vincent says.
Vincent then closed his eyes in his own consciousness. At first, there was nothing. But after a few minutes, the ground started to rumble. The flow of the raging river got harder. However, Vincent then felt it. He opened his eyes and stood up. Vincent then stomped his foot on the river and a huge wall erupted from it, stopping the flow.
“This is not it!” Vincent yelled as he then raised his hands and waved it as rocks came flying towards the wall.
And it was just a few minutes before a fully functioning dam got built. The water which is Vincent’s power is now flowing properly. Everything is being distributed evenly and controllably. Vincent then opened his eyes in the real world and just collapsed on the floor. Jonathan caught him just in time, his face is showing this wide smile.
“You did well, young one. Well done, indeed. Flames, you may come back now. I think this boy’s dam is enough to contain both powers and let it coexist.” Jonathan says.
Flames did not give him any answer, but Jonathan knows that he is already on the move. Jonathan smiled down at the boy as he made something unexpected happen.
“You truly are the one, huh? We’ve finally found you. It’s a shame that I won’t be around when you achieve that. But please, kick…his…ass.”

VINCENT MILES: AND THE FIST OF FIRE BOOK 3 CHAPTER 59: The Warehouse Part 3
The night deepened and the air thick with salt, smoke, and something older—the kind of damp, quiet rot only the sea could breed in forgotten corners of the city.Vincent was now at the next port at the Carmines District Docks. He crouched behind a stack of rusted barrels, his fingers curled tight around the hilt of his sword, eyes scanning the expanse of the port ahead. Beyond the maze of containers and idle forklifts, a warehouse squatted by the water like a bloated toad—its steel walls stained by salt and crime. Dim yellow light spilled out through its windows, some are shattered open. Warehouse 47-B. The warehouse itself was abandoned in paperwork, but very much alive in the underworld.Inside, Vincent counted at least six men moving around in clumsy silhouettes while bearing long firearms. This is the last warehouse that is abandoned in their city’s ports.This was it.The main final stop of trafficked weapons before they were smuggled across the ocean.Vincent’s breath came quiet

Vincent looked at the woman who was trying her best to remove all the red goo off her face.“What happened?! Why the hell did he explode!?” Vincent snapped at the woman.The woman just chuckled at him as she looked directly at her,“I guess you’ll never know. Because I’d rather blow up like that idiot than to expose our master to you!” the woman spat at Vincent.He grew tired off her. Vincent’s right foot then pressed against her broken arm, she cried in pain as her bones cracking echoed around the empty warehouse.“Last question. Better answer it or have your arm ripped off like a ragdoll.” Vincent says with a low voice.“In the other warehouses, is it the same situation as this? Where is the one that has people in it?” Vincent asked.The woman simply smiled at him. Tears trickled down her face and her veins bulged because of the pain. Vincent stepped on the arm harder, and she wailed.“The southern port! The southern port is the port where the warehouse of trafficked humans is kept!

VINCENT MILES: AND THE FIST OF FIRE BOOK 3 CHAPTER 57: The Warehouse Part 1
After arriving at the port of Eagle City, the main port, Vincent hid himself behind a thick bush. He laid on his chest as he observed the warehouse from over a few hundred feet away.“That Serene personality wasn’t lying then, huh?” Vincent thought to himself as he saw that outside of this big warehouse, dozens of armed men stood guard.“Those rifles must be loaded with incapacitation bullets. Flames, can you feel it.” Vincent asked.“Yeah, even from this distance, I can sense that familiar power.” Flames replied in Vincent’s head.The Incapacitation power, the ability to render a hero powerless. One severe wound, it might cause either death, or it will never heal.“What’s your plan, kid?” Flames questioned as he knows that his host can’t just storm in there knowing that he’ll be killed in an instant with those bullets.“First…we observe.”As Vincent went on and watch the happenings, he was taking down notes, and with the camera he brought (Sophia insisted on bringing it), Vincent sna

VINCENT MILES: AND THE FIST OF FIRE BOOK 3 CHAPTER 56: Serene
In his room, in the middle of the night, Vincent on a chair by his desk, desperately trying to find something. As he went at it like a madman, his door opened once more.“It’s the middle of the night! I can hear your every tap on your laptop!” Sophia yawned.“Sorry if I woke you up. You can go back to sleep now; I’ll just use my tablet.” Vincent apologized as he folded his laptop and went straight to his bed.Sophia sighed and then closed the door behind her, but she didn’t leave. “You’re trying to do something related to Jessica, huh?”Vincent didn’t reply and was just too engulfed in researching.“I’m your twin, even though I’m not literally. I can feel it, Vincent. You’re not here because of some restaurant business. You’re here for something else. I knew something was wrong the moment I learned you were here. And the way you acted when you saw Jessica and heard her say something, it’s a massive giveaway.” Sophia says as she then sat on Vincent’s chair, looking directly at him as

VINCENT MILES: AND THE FIST OF FIRE BOOK 3 CHAPTER 55: Need to Move Fast
Vincent is in his room, tapping on the tablet he just bought a week back, searching for alarming news that might connect to Arthur Phoenix. And to no luck at all, Vincent just collapsed in disappointed on his bed as he looked up the ceiling.“Where to start first?” Vincent asked himself.He was determined and all in this personal mission of his, but starting it is the difficult part. He’s managed to make the restaurant that he told his father and his captain, and after talking to the architect and engineer earlier, the restaurant will start construction tomorrow. There were no hassles in terms of papers and all, but still, that was not Vincent’s main goal. He tossed his pillow above him and caught it each time.“What to do? What to do? What to do?” Vincent says under his breath repeatedly.As he was busy contemplating on what to do, Vincent’s door suddenly flung open.“I guess, you were home after all, huh?” A familiar voice sounded. The pillow landed on Vincent’s face. And as he rem

VINCENT MILES: AND THE FIST OF FIRE BOOK 3 CHAPTER 55: If It's Her...
It took Vincent a few more hours before he reached Eagle City. He wore a black leather jacket, his sword still strapped on his left. As he walked through the airport, he is not that much recognizable as people just pass through him. He wasn’t wearing his cape, that figures why people didn’t recognize him. And another, he has his hair down. He exited the airport and called for a taxi. He entered the vehicle that stopped in front of him and closed the door.“Where to, sir?” the bald driver asked.“Miles Manor, please.” Vincent says and off they go.Vincent gawked at the window of the car, heroes flying everywhere. This city is protected by two squads, the Amazonian Tigers and Majestic Lions, but the most dominant hero squad here is Violet’s squad. Before, it was under Victor’s protection, but somehow at some point of time, Viole claimed the city. They may had some kind of a duel for the jurisdiction of Eagle City. In any case, this city is directly under the Miles Household, Vincent’s f
