7 Pyro John

"You have an ability?"

"Yes, you do know that there are many different superpowered people in the world. For example X-Men, like them I also have a special ability. However, I feel that I am not a Mutant. My power is that I can devour energy of superpowered people and it doesn't even cause any side effects. I absorbed Extremis a few days before, so SHIELD discovered me and found that I didn't have any identity and so..."

"So they became suspicious about you, especially after knowing your ability, and it is very likely that they will be arrest you for research.

No… I won't let them take you away…"

Skye thought about it and took out her laptop and started typing something rapidly.

"What are you doing?" Arthur curiously asked.

"Helping you eliminate your recent records so that they can't find you, then let's get out of here." Skye said.

"Wait a minute…"

"Trust me, I can do it." Skye thought that he didn't believe in her hacking ability.

Arthur said: "I believe that you can do it, but there is no need for it. I can't avoid them all the time. Besides, I already told Black Widow, that I won't hide myself so for the time being they won't find trouble with me. What's more, even if they want to catch me, it's won't be so easy."

"Really?"

"Yeah, when we go someplace safe I will show you my ability, then you will know." Arthur said confidently.

"Then… okay!" Skye hesitated but still stopped trying to erase their recent records. "However, it's still not safe. Although SHIELD won't do anything to me for a while, its also not good to be always under their observation"

"You are right, then… let's get going from here."

Leaving the hotel, Skye's van and Arthur's sports car were parked nearby. Arthur went straight to Skye's car!

"What about your car?" Skye asked.

"You had said that this car is your home. Since I am your boyfriend, of course I will be with you. So this car is also my home now." Arthur said casually.

"Okay." Skye felt a little bit pity over the car, but still listened to Arthur.

The two went to Skye's car and then drove off. Travelling from one place to another, this kind of life Skye has long been used to it. But the difference now is that she is now accompanied by a man, her man!

Arthur's and Skye's feelings for each other were becoming better and better. They are now acustomed to holding each other hands, embracing and kissing, especially when sleeping at night, the space in the car is not small, but it is definitely not too big also, so they have to huddle together. Although nothing else happened, but this feeling of embracing and sleeping together is enough to make the relationship between the two to advance by leaps and bounds.

"It seems like there is a good restaurant here, let's go and try it?"

Arthur browsed the nearby restaurant with his mobile phone and found a seemingly good place with nice reviews.

"Alright." Skye said with a smile.

Driving to the restaurant, Skye said: "You go ahead and order something, I will go and park the car."

"Okay."

Arthur got out of the car and was ready to go to find some seats for them. But just as soon as he was entering, a person was coming out. The two people Unexplainably slammed into each other. Arthur's body was transformed by Extremis. So even after being hit he didn't even move one step back but the other person was to forced to move several steps back.

"Are you blind?" Arthur hadn't even spoken yet, but the other man had already shouted.

Arthur slightly frowned.

"You fu*king pretty boy, I am talking to you, are you blind? Or…are you seeking death?"

Arthur became a bit angry and replied: "Kid, the person who is blind is not me but you."

"It seems that you really wanna die."

"Dear, what happened?"

At this time, Skye had already parked the car and came over. Seeing that Arthur seemed to be in a dispute with someone, she hurried over.

Arthur turned and smiled. "Nothing dear, there had been no chance for you to know about your boyfriend's power. Now… that opportunity has come. Kid, there are too many people here, let's go to the alley to talk about this."

"Just what I wanted." The teenager sneered, and moved toward the alley next to him.

"Dear, what's the matter?" Skye asked worriedly.

Arthur smiled and said: "It's nothing, I am just fixing someones attitude."

Skye frowned and holding her phone she started searching.

This was a dead end in the alley next to the restaurant. A teenager stood there and was looking at Arthur with a sneer.

"Dear, be careful, he is John a Mutant!"

Skye whispered towards Arthur.

Arthur was quite surprised: "Pyro John?"

"Now you know my identity? But it's too Late, I will let you know today, the price of offending me. And your girl is also quite good looking." Pyro John sneeringly said and showed a lighter in his hand.

The flames from lighter came out, and they started growing stronger and dancing around the hands of John.

"It's indeed interesting!"

Arthur slightly smirked and said. Because of SHIELD and Skye, he hadn't deliberately sought to find anyone to gain more abilities during this time. But he didn't expect to meet Pyro John here.

This Pyro John is a villain. He was a student in Xavier's school of gifted but later became a part of Magneto's brotherhood of Mutants. He has the ability to control the flames, but he couldn't make a flame appear which is why he carries a lighter. This ability was suitable for his own development as he already had Extremis.

Arthur can now produce high temperatures, like magma, but he Could't make flames or control them. Originally he had planned to wait for SHIELD to follow a person named Chan Ho Yin from Hong Kong. He can make flames, and because his own platelets have the ability to resist fire. So he was not afraid of flame burns at all. Arthur's goal was Chan Ho Yin's ability to make a flame. As for the ability to not resist burns, flames already have no effect on him due to Extremis and it's regeneration.

However, if he can get John's ability to control fire, then his strength would be greatly enhanced.

Arthur thought to himself 'Pyro John, you really are an idiot, you dared to ask me for trouble… Now you can kiss your days as a Mutant goodbye'
