OUTBURST 1

Their relief was short-lived as Dylan's hands tightened around Leah's neck, his grip unyielding despite Ashley's admonishment.

"Dylan, stop. You can't keep doing this every time you're angry," Ashley implored, her voice tinged with urgency.

But Dylan remained unmoved, his voice eerily calm as he posed a chilling question. "Hey, if she dies will Myra's abilities return to her?"

Ashley's warning tone reverberated through the tense silence that followed. "Don't even think about it, Dylan."

The room seemed to hold its breath, the air thick with apprehension as they awaited Dylan's next move. Then, suddenly, he released his grip on Leah, staggering back as if struck by an unseen force. Clutching his chest, Dylan gasped for breath, his features contorted in agony.

With practiced ease, Ashley caught Leah with her telekinetic abilities, bringing her safely to her side.

"Hey, what's wrong?" Josh's worried voice pierced through the tension.
