Chapter 202: The Day Shes Been Dreading Part 2 (2/2)

”What have I said about calling me that… It's off-putting.”

Jinx smirked for a second before it fell short. ”You're not going to get a hold of any of them soon. I saw an array of explosions and ice. It would appear the two are fighting.”

”What?! Why the hell would they be fighting?! Where are they?”

”Outside the stadium, north entrance.”

”We need to hurry if we are to help Alton.” As Emil was to move out Jinx was torn backwards smashing to the wall down in a second. Emil's head turned in shock seeing Jinx bloody and beaten knocked out in a single blow. ”Jinx!!!”

”I'm afraid I cannot allow you to get in the way of the new Queen. She is far too occupied to have the likes of you get in her way.”

Emil turned in shock seeing a lone man wearing a two-horned demon mask standing with his hands in his pockets. ”Who are you?!”

The man held his hand out, smugly laughing. ”In the past, this name was carried on between the rulers of the Syndicate family. Generations of power passed down to me; I too carry the name. The name of the most feared super-villain known to mankind. You may address me as Psychosis.”

”Psychosis, huh? Ha never heard of you. But I'll may you pay for what you did to Jinx!” Emil yelled descending into the floor, charging him. However, Emil never made it anywhere near Psychosis appearing far away looking traumatised. ”What the hell… Just then. I felt that great evil… If I attacked him just, then I would have died.”

”You're not as dumb as you look, Emil Montague. It would be in your best interest to give up.”

”It probably would… But my friend needs my help!”

Emil rushed Psychosis only to have his entire body-slammed to the ground. Gagging up bloody Emil lose conscience in a matter of moments as Psychosis shook his head. ”It appears I misjudged you, Emil, you are just as foolish as the rest. Now it appears the Queen is endangered.”

Explosive flurries of attacks ignited the sky as Alton bolted through each one, leaving a trail of frozen petals behind him. Scarlett was struggling to keep up with his newfound strength. Appearing behind her Scarlett couldn't react fast enough as she was smashed to the ground as a bombardment of ice shattered across the land. From the attack serval, small orbs flew past Alton exploding knocking him forward. Scarlett held him stunned for a split moment with her abilities. Twirling her whole body around smashing him through the stadium and back crashing into a set of cars setting off a chain explosion. Alton heaped from the flames slashing down with his sword. Luckily for Scarlett, her protective bubble stopped it from causing devasting harm. However, this wouldn't stop him as he kept swinging his sword in a blind rage chipping at the bubble. When that was no use, Alton began using his hands, forcing his way through burning his skin. Scarlett was left shocked as she started waving her hands around. ”Alton, no. Stop don't do this!”

Alton broke through gripping his hands around Scarlett's next freezing her only at that moment to find himself launched so fast from grace he passed out from the sheer force. Waking up moments later, Alton was being held at the back of the neck by Psychosis who was floating in the air containing him. ”You show him too much kindness, dear daughter, you're holding back where he is trying to kill you. May this be a lesson to you not to hold back.”

Psychosis shoved his arm forward, tearing through Alton's chest, causing him to limp over down for the count. ”Knowing what the boy has been through, he'll probably survive that. Helga will most likely heal him. May this be a lesson for you Scarlett of what to do next time. Psychosis threw him to the ground as Alton blacked out instantly. ”Your plan failed daughter. It appears you couldn't get him to join us.”

Scarlett bit her lip in frustration gripping her fist tightly. ”Let me try again. I know I can make him turn to our side. Alton is my friend. I need him.”

”Do not let your personal feelings get the better of you Scarlett... Very well, Emi take the boy he may prove to be useful after all...”

Alton lay on the ground coming to as he was picked up and dragged away. His eyes stared at Scarlett as she glanced back whispering. ”I'm sorry Alton. Victoria aut mors…”
