Broken Needle

Damien was going to attack and end their fight with a few quick and non-injurious strikes to make Adam admit defeat.

But... after a few steps, he stopped, not because he was confused by something, but because of Adam's bewildered face.

"Hey... Adam, is everything okay?" Damien asked with slight concern, raising an eyebrow. In all their fighting, Damien had never seen Adam like this, it seemed as if he had lost something and didn't know why or how to find it.

"I'm not sure... Is it okay that I can't use my First Order again?" Adam glanced at Damien with a hopeful look in his eyes.

However, although Damien was one of the strongest Phantoms, he was not an omniscient being. Each Phantom had its abilities, unique capabilities, and challenges they faced along the way.

Scratch. Scratch. Scratch.

Damien scratched the back of his head, with a thoughtful look.
