Chapter 6- Undercover

*Aiden is on his laptop on his bed, Rylet is sitting at Aiden's computer desk, Monika is sitting on Aiden's bed next to him*

Aiden: *He is looking at an article, it's about Desmond and Aiden's fight at the school, including the aftermath, "2 Murdered And 1 Injured In School Accident", Aiden scrolls as he reads and looks at the damage* It looks like I went a little overboard huh…?

Rylet: A little? *He crosses his arms* Way more than a little.

Aiden: *he quickly closes his laptop and points at him* I swear if you say I should've held back-!

Rylet: At least a little.

Aiden: *growls* Talk about ungrateful! *He opens his laptop and scrolls* I did that for you!

Rylet: I appreciate it but you better hope you didn't get caught on camera.

Aiden: *he scratches his head with his right hand* I guess… but you can at least be grateful!

Monika: *she grabs an old stuff animal of a elephant and squeezes it, she lets out a smile* I think it was very sweet that you beat him up for Rylet.

Aiden: *smiles* Thank you Monika.

Monika: But you didn't have to destroy the building.

Aiden: *he lets out a frustrated sigh* Fine fine you guys win. *He puts his hands on his forehead hand pushes his hair back* How am I going to fix this?

Rylet: Realistically, there isn't a way to fix it. What's done is done. You will get in trouble for all those damages and probably something legally with that kid's parents.

Aiden: Best to stay a secret? I guess I have no choice now. *He scrolls more to see the names of the guys in the accident* The guys killed were named Dante Sato and Gary Williams. *Monika gets visually upset and hugs Aiden's elephant stuffed animal* The guy with the power was named Desmond Green.

Monika: *she lets out a sigh before speaking* Maybe we should talk to him after he recovers. Maybe we can learn something from him about this power.

Aiden: He seemed just as clueless as we were when we saw you. He was just using it to be a judge on people's actions. *He scrolls but a video catches his eyes, the video plays, showing paramedics trying to put Desmond on a stretcher but he gets up and walks it off, the paramedics are shocked, they slowly back up in horror* He's… he's okay.

Rylet: What are you talking about?

Aiden: Desmond got up from that beat down I gave him, with no injuries.

Rylet: Why are you surprised? I'm sure he's like you, you survived some crazy stuff.

Aiden: Fair enough but I didn't expect him to be completely fine. At least some damage to his body. *Aiden's Mom knocks then walks in slowly*

Aiden's Mom: I got some plates for you kids, unless you wanna go eat at the table.

Aiden: *he smiles* We will go eat at the table ma.

Rylet: *he gets a smile* *they all stand up and walk out to go eat, after they are done eating, Rylet and Monika head back to Aiden's room, Aiden looks at his mom and starts talking to her*

Aiden: Hey ma?

Aiden's Mom: What is it?

Aiden: *he hugs her* Thank you for understanding and hearing me out on this situation.

Aiden's Mom: *she smiles and hugs him back* Of course love. *She kisses his forehead and hugs him tightly* I'm only hard on you so you can understand life sooner so it's not harder for you!

Aiden: I know ma. I understand and I'm grateful for you. *They part from the hug, she rubs his hair with her right hand, messing it up*

Aiden's Mom: Thank you sweetie! Never think mom doesn't love you! *She starts washing the dishes*

Aiden: *he stands there for a bit before breaking the ice* Mom, where did this power come from?

Aiden's Mom: *stops washing dishes*

Aiden: Why am I like this? *She sighs, standing there in silence before she starts scrubbing again* Why am I a monster compared to my friends?

Aiden's Mom: *she quickly stops scrubbing and turns to him, she points at him* Don't you ever say that about yourself! Got it!? *Aiden stares at her with a look of defeat* You are not a monster!

Aiden: Then what am I?

Aiden's Mom: A gift. *She puts her hand over his heart* I don't know what it is but, you were given this for a reason, don't waste it. That's why I tell you to not put your hands on anyone because you are stronger than them. I want you to help people instead of causing damage, unless it was something like today. It was even playing ground, *she smiles* you better have kicked his ass!

Aiden: *he smiles* you should have seen me mom! I was doing more than beating!

Aiden's Mom: Good! He laid a finger on your brother which means he's got a death wish!

Aiden: *chuckles, he stops and thinks to himself before talking again* But how does football help people?

Aiden's Mom: It makes people happy. Everyone likes sports, right? They are fun! *She looks at him, Aiden looks upset, she loses her happiness quickly* You don't like it right…?

Aiden: *he shakes his head "no"*

Aiden's Mom: *she exhales* From what you experienced today, I think you understand why I say sports.

Aiden: I can handle it.

Aiden's Mom: *she looks up at him with a worried face*

Aiden: You should see what I can do. I don't know how I can show it because that guy was the only person like me from what I have seen, but I can handle myself.

Aiden's Mom: *she has a worried look before talking* I can't shield you from everything. You will learn the cruelty of this world, there is only a little bit I can do before you find out the rest. But if you can handle all the stuff I tell you already then I know my boy is strong enough to handle the rest. If you want to use your strength like Superman or a factory job lifting heavy machines or even be a construction worker, fine. But you better come back home. *She stands there quiet for a little before talking quietly* I don't want you dying on me, but I want you happy.

Aiden: Thank you mom, I promise I will, there is nothing that will stop me from coming back home.

Aiden's Mom: *She starts cleaning the dishes again with a smile* Go save people, my super hero.

Aiden: *smiles* Yes ma'am. *He jogs to his room and closes the door, a few seconds after he opens it and yells to her* Is it okay for Monika and Rylet to spend the night?

Aiden's Mom: *freezes mid dish scrub* Are you crazy!? N-*she stops herself and starts scrubbing the dish again* Yes they can.

Aiden: Thanks ma! You are the best! *He closes the door*

Aiden's Mom: *she smiles* I know…

*They Wake Up The Next Morning, Monika Slept In The Bed While Rylet And Aiden Slept On The Floor, Aiden's Alarm Goes Off, It's 6:30*

Aiden: *Aiden gets up and turns his clock off, he glances over at his computer desk to see his jacket folded, looks brand new with a note, "Brand New Like Nothing Ever Happened <3, Happy Birthday Love, If You Stay Home I Will Be Back Soon, Sorry I Couldn't Make You Breakfast On Your Big Day :( But I Know You Will Understand How The Office Is. ~Love Mom <3"* *Aiden Smiles but Monika and Rylet are next to him looking over his shoulders reading it too*

Monika: She's such a sweetheart!

Aiden: *he quickly looks to his left at Monika* Huh!?

Rylet: Seems like that lady does have a soft spot.

Aiden: *he quickly looks to his right at Rylet* Can you two not!? *he puts the note down and puts his jacket on to test it* Hell yeah… *he smiles*

Rylet: Are we going to school?

Aiden: I don't see why not?

Monika: It's the best chance we got to find Desmond.

Aiden: That settles it then. Let's head out.

Monika: Aiden? Can I have this elephant stuffed animal? *Raises it up to him and squeezes it twice*

Aiden: I would but it means more to me than you can imagine. It's my mom's stuffed animal, it's been passed down the family.

Monika: *Monika leaves it on the bed* I understand. *She smiles and kisses his on the right cheek* Happy Birthday. *She walks out*

Rylet: *Rylet walks up to him* You're fine with it? No reaction?

Aiden: Why should I fight it when she's not even listening to me?

Rylet: She listened to you about the elephant, she can listen about you not liking it. *He walks out*

Aiden: Are you trying to say I like her!? Take that back! *He sighs as he takes off his jacket to change*

*Monika And Rylet Go To Their Houses And Switch Clothes, They Meet Up At The Opening Of The Apartment Complex And Head To School, Once They Get There, They Keep Their Heads Down In Their Classes, They Eavesdrop On All Conversations About The Fight*

*In Monika's Classes*

Girl 1: I heard the guy who fought Desmond was a bad guy! He beat him up pretty badly! *Monika smirks*

Guy: yeah the guy killed those people and tried to get Desmond. *Monika growls to herself*

Girl 2: *she gets a blush with a pervy smile* What a bad guy alright…~ *Monika turns red, she so mad she walks out*

*In Rylet's Classes*

Guy 1: I think Desmond killed them and tried to kill the wrong person.

Guy2: Come on! Be logical here! Desmond's push over ass couldn't do that! *Rylet acts like he doesn't hear them but he's listening carefully*

Guy 1: I'm being serious! Desmond stood up perfectly fine after the ambulance got there! He's invincible! If I was invincible, I would kill too!

Guy 3: If he was invincible, then who laid him out like that?

Guy 1: I'm not sure but, whoever it is, they're a worse threat than Desmond. *Rylet's eyes narrow before going back to work*

*In Aiden's Classes*

Guy: Was it you Isaac? I feel like you are stronger than what you show us! The way you run that field! *Punching Isaac's left shoulder* *Aiden listens but he faces forward*

Isaac: No way man. I seen some crazy stuff,*he glances at Aiden, seeing that he is facing forward, "not listening"* but that tops it. A punch that broke half a building? That's not real. That's a monster. *Aiden's pupils shrink*

Emma: I'm sure whoever did it, I'm sure it was for the greater good, Desmond was a weirdo, knowing him he killed them. But we just need to keep our eyes open for the one who beat him down like that, whoever it is, they could kill any of us at any time. *Aiden's pupils shake*

Guy: Such a downer! Ain't I right Isaac?

Isaac: *he's sweating as he glances at Aiden again* Y-yeah! Heheh…hehe… he… eh…

*Back At The Huge Science Lab*

Nakota: *he walks up to the pods, he looks at the same pod Kokuna touch to see that the humanoid figure is gone* Huh? Kokuna? What happened to it?

Kokuna: What are you talking about? *He walks over to the pod*

Nakota: The fiend! It's gone!

Kokuna: Oh well, we can get another.

Nakota: *he turns to Kokuna* What are you talking about!? The world would be in trouble if it got out!

Kokuna: You don't understand. We can handle it. It would awaken one's Kura and they would be able to kill it.

Nakota: Are you telling me you released it!?

Kokuna: *smiles* Yes I did, you need to let me do my job and you will see that it works! *Nakota looks at the other pods, there is nothing in them*

Nakota: No… No! You released all of them-!! I'm reporting you to the authorit-*Before he can finish his sentence, he's stabbed in the back, Nakota looks down to see a blade coming out of his chest, he grunts as he throws up blood on one of the pods*

Kokuna: No need to, they will find you before you can say anything. *He opens one of the pods, pulls the blade out of Nakota and puts him in the pod, he stares at Nakota bleeding on the floor* I think you should suffer. *He puts his right hand on Nakota's cut* But not in that way. *He moves his hand to reveal he healed his cut, before Nakota can stand up, Kokuna locks him in the pod, Nakota bangs on the pod glass, Kokuna stares at him with a smile, Kokuna then hits a button on the pod and walks away* Be grateful I am giving you a chance. *Nakota's screams are faint, the monitor next to the pod displays the temperature in the pod, 73, 72, 71, 70, dropping every second, Nakota bangs on the glass as he screams* Now… Time to release them all…
