Cost of Time

"In the future, you will—" she started speaking, but before she could finish her words, I sensed something dangerous.

"Not good," I exclaimed activating my Advanced Aegis Projection. It enveloped me, granting immunity to any damage for a limited time.

 Without hesitation, I extended the protection to Sung Hei and shouted, "Just trust me, or you will die!"

She didn't react at all, frozen in place like she felt the danger too. Her face was pale, showing how serious it was. 

A blinding light exploded, swallowing the area in its brilliance. 

There was no deafening sound, as the energy that exploded moved faster than sound itself, engulfing everything in chaos. 

Luckily, the beam of light didn't persist beyond my immunity time limit, sparing us from the attack.
