Chapter 46 Different But Not Like Us (2/2)

Between Kennedy and Laz, there was the chance to blend the frequency, but no such situation could be felt from Tommy. He was a different creature all together and there could not be anything but blood between the two. Laz had no idea if Tommy felt it, but he sure as hell did.

*Kennedy, you got an idea to calm him down?* Laz asked as he took a step back. He was closer to Tommy, so he could feel the intensity of his hatred far more than she could. As such, he felt like it would be better to back away a step.

He wasn't afraid of Tommy in the slightest, but he felt it would be best not to fight at school. It would lead to unwanted problems.

As The coach finally reached Tommy, he took a step forward and tried to block his way.

”Son, maybe you should sit down for a moment. We've called an ambulance and it will be here soon. I saw the whole thing happen and it was an accident,” the coach said, trying to calm Tommy down.

”Screw you old man,” Tommy raged. He used his good arm to push the coach to the side. The result was the coach was thrown almost 10 feet into the crowd of students circling him. Surprised shouts and gasps of pain sounded out from all of the students he crashed into while the others who were watching couldn't help but stand there, slacked jawed in disbelief.

'How the hell could he throw the coach like that?' Ran threw everyone's heads. The coach was a full grown and rather muscular man who obviously worked out regularly. He had to weigh at least 100 kg where as Tommy couldn't be more than 45 at most. There was no way he should have been able to do that.

*Oh my god, is he hulking out or something? And what do you want me to do? Can't you just kick his ass or like knock him out?* Kennedy asked as she took a step back from Tommy's exploding aura.

*You want me to kick his ass, in school, in front of like 50 witnesses? I'm just fucking glad that no one has a cell phone right now.* Laz responded, taking another step back.

Kennedy looked around in a bit of a panic as she knew Laz made sense. Although he could beat Tommy up no problem, that wasn't a usable solution right now. She finally laid her eyes on the vollyball that was just a few feet in front of her.

*oh, OH OH OH. I've got a great idea. Take two more steps back and then don't move an inch.* Kennedy said and she stuck her foot forward and using the toe of her shoe, she brought the ball to directly in front of her.

*Really? That's it?* Laz responded, a bit shocked. Tommy had started taking slow steps towards Laz as though he was possessed. Jesse and Alex were going to try to stop him, but after seeing the coach fly away, they lost the nerve to intervene.

*You got to trust me on this,* Kennedy said in he most positive mental voice.

*Alright, my future is in your hands.* Laz said with a bit of good-natured humor.Although he knew he could take Tommy, he also felt more and more like getting hit by Tommy would be a hell of a lot worse than getting shot with rubber bullets.

It wasn't a pain he really wanted to endure, although once he got hit, he would have every right to hit him back. Instead, he was going to fully trust Kennedy on this one and not even raise his hands to block.

He instead took two steps back, put his arms down, and took on a look like Tommy was a weird sort of crazy new creature at a zoo. It was a look of humor, mixed with interest and no fear what so ever.

This look that Laz took on along with his entire relaxed position just made Tommy even more pissed as he started to go at Laz faster.

Kennedy wasn't idle in the least. As she looked at a few people's legs that had been glued to the floor in shock and interest, calculated a route, kicked the ball, and started to walk around the circle so no one would be able to associated what was going to happen next with her.

Although the other students felt the ball hit their legs, they never bothered looked down as they watched Tommy running at Laz with a murderous look in his eyes.

Since he was so focused, he never noticed the ball that had rolled right in front of him, so he never even tried to dodge it.

Tommy's lunging running strides came to a quick stop as he stepped on the ball and lost his feet from under him.

In a moment that could only be described as epically painful, Tommy's forward momentum caused him to face plant right into the gym floor right before he reached Laz, completely knocking himself out.

The silence in the gym was frightening as everyone had collectively held their breaths. Too much had happened and to many changes had occurred for anyone to think straight. Even Laz stood there, completely speechless. There was no way he could have seen this coming. He had noticed the ball rolling into the area, but he didn't think that it would end up so perfect.

Although everyone else was shocked silent, Kennedy had her hand over her mouth as her face turned bright red. She was using everything in her power to not break out in roaring laughter and ruin this moment.
