Chapter Three: Ignition

[Leo]

What happened next was a blur of events. Either that or it was one event, and went so fast that I was confused as to what happened. The law man had apparently shoved the wrong dancer on the floor and he got in a fist fight with the man. He threw a punch and missed hitting another man on the dance floor, causing the two to fight. The law man had managed to get by the fight unscathed and continued down the floor getting even closer to Commander Jadyn. A blue haze flashed in front of my eyes again just before things started to move very quickly. But, even though they were moving quickly, my brain was still picking up everything accurately.

The fight across the floor had attracted the attention of the bouncers. 6 foot 3 inches tall, 224 pounds, and could bench press probably about 400-500 pounds came out of the front of the club and threw the two fighters to oppsite ends and got inbetween them just before one of them pulled out a Detroit Handgun and fired at the bouncer, killing him in the process. The club turned into panic as I saw Commander Jadyn exiting stage right with the Lawman in presuit. Then an idea popped into my head. I quickly rounded the bar and shoved the bartender to the right and ran behind the counter diving across the end and tucking into a roll, I landed square infront of the law man who stopped quickly at the sight of me.

I rose slowly to my feet and looked up at him from the floor. "You got a problem with him, you got a problem with me law man."

"I do have a problem with you, but you were going to be last Leo." he said unholstering his pistol, before he could even get the hand up I had his hand wrenched downward and threw him easily into the bar behind me. Three clear shots rang out and that area of the bar scattered as well. He jumped back to his feet quickly and came at me. Blue haze again and things became clear the world jumped alive with color as things began catagorizing themselves according to threat.

The weapon in the man's hand became red, and the holster on his belt as well, I looked back at him and noticed that he as coming quickly at me. A dial popped up next to his head indicating his speed of 10 feet per two seconds. I dodged to the right grabbing his pistol and wrenching his wrist down quickly spinning him around and into the wall behind me. I turned the pistol towards his head and fired a shot. He slumped quickly to the ground. I stumbled back and watched as blood ran down the wall. Two more men were approaching quickly and I saw another blue flash and the colorful world vanished. I turned and exited the bar quickly, chasing down Commander Jadyn, to ask him the questions I needed to know...

What the hell was I?

You fear oblivion. Yet you forget. The universe remembers every atom of your being. Even dust hums your name in the dark.
