Zou yue squatted down with his back to the closed shutter door. Just next to him, three shadows stood by casually. It was trexa's ability. He saw the past shadows lurking by the door. A man alone walked into the small warehouse room.
'let's go in...' he silently lifted the shutter a bit and peered under the gap. It was dark in there. He could make out at least four figures.
He wiped his eyes. 'fuck this ability is getting in the way.'
With this power, he could look into the past. He saw the shadows of people who walked past this place.
'it has a huge downside,' the humans were also in there and so were the past shadows. Now because of this, he was not able to make out who the real human was and who the past shadow was.
He wiped his eyes once more, but the shadows were not disappearing. 'Trexa baby, your powers are such a hassle.'
Gritting his teeth, yue decided to fight through this. There was only a small way to confirm who the real one, and the shadows were.
He hurriedly searched around. There was a small lock attached to the shutter. He gripped it tightly until it shattered into five pieces.
With his stretchy yoga strip he tied it in between his fingers, he placed the lock pieces in the and shot at the target. He did not put that much force into it.
He shot them consecutively at the dark figures.
Two of them hit three targets.
'bingo.'
He threw open the shutter and rushed in with his sword, the one closer to the door was easily to take out. With one swing, his head flew off. The next one though..he got aware of his presence.
When Yue swung his sword at him, the man punched at it with a casual pose.
Zou Yue frowned. This fighting style was similar to boxing. He did not put much thought into it.
Until.....
He saw his sword shatter from the man's punch...
Yue was more than startled. The sword has helped him fight so many zombies and human but.. it got shattered so easily with just a punch.
'a strength ability user!!!'
Yue stepped back out of his attack range. He tossed the broken sword down and took out his trusty dagger.
"look at you...are you a girl or a boy?"
"why does that matter?"
The man came into the small ray of light in that dark room, exposing his bald head and burly figure. I don't like men,"
"well sad for you I'm a man," Yue casually shrugged. Even while talking to him, his eyes searched for Juda.
The bald man let out a throaty laughter. "great then I'll kill you and peal you up like a chicken.'
He spread his legs and stood in a formal boxing pose. His left fist was raised close to his face and his right fist was below his chin.
Yue tightly clenched the dagger. 'I can't prolong this any longer,'
The man did not give him any longer to hesitate. His punches were precise and strong. His moves were unpredictable.
Yue watched his arms.. the man raised his left first.
He swiftly covered up the left side of his face
To his surprise, a punch landed right in his stomach.
Yue stepped back, gasping. 'Fuck... I think he broke a few bones.'
A searing pain spread from his ribs.
Even so, he kept his composure in this fight.
"Oh you survived that.... good. I would use you as my punching bag."
His heart started pounding loudly. 'this man is a trained professional.. fuck... fuck...' he watched his arms and legs cautiously for any movement.
Suddenly that guy lifted his leg, aiming a kick at his left stomach. Yue urgently shielded that spot but to his surprise that man's leg twisted mid air and hit him right side of the face.
For a second, Yue almost lost consciousness.
Punching his wrist tightly, he held back from collapsing.
"wow, would you look at that? Your head didn't fly off. Are you like me too? No wonder... but you are weak." The man chuckled loudly.
Weak.... that word incited a fire inside of Yue. He gritted his teeth and slashed at him.
This time he not only kept an eye on his fists, he also kept a lookout for his body movements. Anytime this man threw a right punch or a right kick, he would twist his body slightly.
It gave him a small opening for attack.
Just as he expected, the man threw a upper jab. It left a small weak spot by his neck.
'now!'
Yue did not dodge his attack. He let the jab hit his chin. At the same time he stabbed the man's exposed neck.
To his surprise, he shrunk his neck and caught the knife tight between his shoulder blade and neck. "hehe I knew you were aiming there. Such a simpleton."
Yue's head was pounding he as sure his jaw was broken badly.. his eyes were tearing up uncontrollably, making his vision blurry.
'shit... I'm weak... i can't even...'
A gun shot rang loudly and blood splattered all over his face. The bald man collapsed to the floor.
Wiping his eyes, Yue took a good look. he had a huge hole in is temple. He glanced around. Juda was sitting in the corner with a gun held tightly in her fist. "you okay?" she panted softly.
"juda!" Yue ran to her and checked on her. Her face was badly beaten up and bleeding. one of her eyes was swollen shut. And the other one was bleeding from the inside.
"great shot, right... all my training paid of hehe..." she gently patted his cheeks.
Yue nodded tearfully. "you did good. You did good.." his own jaw and chest were burning and aching.
He touched those spots slightly. All of a sudden, his pain disappeared.
"what the.." he lifted his t-shirt up. His broken rib was back to normal and so were his jaws. As for the other bruises on his face, they were there. 'gosh Trexa's powers are amazing! This is Trexa supremacy!!'
He hurriedly touched Juda's cheeks in hopes of healing her. But... with just a touch, that familiar power in him disappeared.
Juda smiled softly. "how's Lui..."
"good. She got home safely.. she is good now. Let's get you home," he lifted her over his back.
As for now, he can only heal himself with trexa's powers. Similar to his secondary power, Trexa's powers also work with the touch of her hand. Whenever he touched himself, the second power did not copy anything rather, it healed him.
But the second he touched Juda to heal her, it copied her powers.
'any powers I copy has its regulations. I need to note it all down...'
