chapter 33 : Allen's Return

It continued like this and Lucas responded without any filter, people even found more interest in asking him questions than in Mark who just sat and answered the few questions he was asked.

 In the end, Lucas was received at the White House to chat with the President of the United States and have lunch with him, his daughter was a big fan of Lucas and in love even so she arranged to join them.

 Claire Smith, the president's daughter, was a little older than Lucas and was one of his biggest fans.

 She timidly approached Lucas on multiple occasions and he was very courteous and even offered her a ride in the sky.

 Of course, paparazzi took photos of them and within a few days images of them started circulating on social media but Lucas had absolutely nothing to do with it.

 One evening while returning to the mansion, Lucas saw a small shadow flying about two kilometers away in the sky.

 He got closer so quickly that the shadow couldn't see anything coming and Lucas was slightly surprised to see that the shadow was none other than Oliver.

 "Your powers manifested much earlier than Mark and mine . It's quite intriguing and impressive I must admit." Lucas stated calmly and Oliver flinched before turning around and seeing his older brother.

 Oliver: Bro ?!

 Lucas: Who besides me knows?

 Oliver: No one yet, not even big brother Mark. I got them yesterday so I'm practicing them.

 Lucas: That's cool, I'll pretend I didn't see anything. It's good to take the initiative to train yourself and to congratulate you, I will give you some advice to better master your powers: Trust your Instinct and it will follow your will.

 Oliver: Can you train me?! I know you're super strong and I want to be like you Lucas.

 Lucas: That's Mark's job, he's the oldest and he's a good hero too. He will train you better than me.

 Oliver: Are you kidding ?! You're stronger than him and Mark even said you might be stronger than Dad. I prefer that-(interrupted)

 Lucas: Go learn from him first and when you want to learn more, I'll be there. Just because I'm stronger than Mark doesn't mean he's weak, he trains really hard all the time and pushes himself beyond his limits so he's a solid example for you Oliver.

 Lucas also gave him some tips on learning how to land efficiently before leaving and letting Oliver have some fun.

 Over the next few days, Oliver revealed his powers to the rest of the family and Mark began his training.

 One day, Cecil called Mark to send him on a mission. An unknown life form was approaching. Mark had to intercept it to act accordingly.

 He was surprised to see that the life form was none other than Allen, the alien cyclops.

 Mark and his friend greeted each other warmly before he took him to chat on land in Lucas' mansion, which had become the family mansion.

 He introduced Allen to everyone else except Lucas, Art and Oliver who were out doing some flying practice.

 The girls except Eve were very surprised by their meeting with Allen because he was an alien so they asked him some questions to satisfy their curiosity and he answered with a big smile, they were quite welcoming and friendly with him so he asked them enjoyed it very much.

 Very quickly, Allen broached the subject of his visit with Mark. In fact since his first meetings with Mark and his fight against Lucas, Allen had been talked about within the coalition of planets and very quickly the story of the Viltrumites not affiliated with the empire on earth became famous there. even though he later hid from the others that one of the Viltrumites had died on earth, Lucas.

 However, this story had benefits but also a disadvantage because a squad of Viltrumites had been able to go back to him to take information by force concerning these so-called Viltrumites who didn't belong to the empire.

 Out of loyalty, Allen didn't want to say anything and tried to resist but they severely beat and mutilated him to the point of death before leaving him like that in space where he was barely rescued by the coalition and its leader Thaedus who brought him back to life.

 When he woke up after months of coma, Allen had become much more powerful than before to the point where he no longer knew what could kill him now because he was so strong.

 Now, Thaedus the leader of the coalition had sent him to bring back one of the two Viltrumites or ideally both to meet them and rally them in the fight against the empire.

 Mark told him that he couldn't come with him because he has things to do on earth, it was in fact his training with Lucas that he absolutely didn't want to interrupt especially if he leaves with Allen , he didn't know how many months this adventure would take him.

 Although he was quite upset, Allen didn't push it. However, Mark was still determined to help them and told him about his father's books which contained the means to defeat Viltrumites but also mortal enemies for them.

 Allen enthusiastically scanned and copied the books, thanking Mark and the women. As he and Mark went out to see him off...

 *TUMB*

 Someone crashed to the ground near them to make a lousy landing but with a superheroes landing and It was Art .

 Mark: Art ? Nice landing ahahahah.

 Art: Go ahead, don't worry, it's harder than I thought and our flight instructor is not a softy.

 Allen: Another Viltrumite !?

 Art: A CYCLOPS !!

 Mark: Calm down you two, Art is not a Viltrumite like Lucas and I but he has exactly the same powers as a Viltrumite. It's a bit complicated to explain. Art, Allen is a friend so you have nothing to fear from him.

 "Well done Art, you win this race for the 11th time. Oliver is progressing very quickly but competing with the speed of an adult Viltrumite won't be as easy for him it seems" they heard another voice and Allen's eye, which was already big, widened even more upon discovering that it was Lucas.

 Oliver: I lost again but I'll win next time. (looks at Allen) COOL, AN ALIEN !

 Lucas: How ironic, you are one too. It's okay to-(interrupted)

 " YOU ARE ALIVE !" Allen yelled as he rushed towards Lucas who was looking at him smiling and stopped less than a meter from him.

 Lucas: Yo, it's been a while Allen! Yeah I'm alive and kicking. Still, Mark didn't lie to you, I was technically dead for a little over a year. Let's just say it was a very long coma.

 Allen: JUST LIKE ME! Except that my coma only lasted a few months.

 He immediately started telling him exactly everything he said to Mark a few minutes ago not forgetting Thaedus' request with the conclusion of a challenge to Lucas.

 Allen: Lucas my friend, you and I are going to fight and if I win then you will follow me to Talescria to meet my leader. What do you say ? It won't be like last time.

 Lucas: (smiles) You seem confident. 

 Allen: I have become much stronger than before.

 Mark tried to stop Allen because they had already settled the matter but Lucas told him to leave it, Mark felt in Lucas's eyes that the latter was not bothered by it so he let his little brother accept the fight .

 They went towards the ocean at a higher altitude and the others followed them to watch the fight, especially Oliver who was an admirer of Lucas.

 The two took some distance and Mark gave the signal for the fight to begin.

 Allen wasted no time and quickly rushed towards Lucas to throw a punch which Lucas easily avoided by tilting his head to the left but at the same time as he dodged this punch he gave the at the same time a knee strike in the abdomen of Allen whose facial expression was distorted by pain.

 He grabbed his lower abdomen with both hands because of the pain, thus leaving the upper part of his body defenseless for half a second which was enough for Lucas who gave him a magnificent spinning kick to the temple, which sent Allen flying far away while ricocheting across the surface of the ocean.

 Allen hadn't even made it 200m when Lucas came down from the sky with a punch to his face that sent him to the bottom of the ocean where he pursued him to continue the fight.

 Allen was able to regain consciousness and feeling that he was being cruelly dominated, he decided to give everything he had in the fight.

At the bottom of the ocean, he charged Lucas with a series of kicks and punches that Lucas dodged before sending him an uppercut that sent him speeding back to the surface up to 3000 meters above the waters.

" It's incredible ! Big bro Lucas is about to give him one of these beatings!!" Oliver said breathlessly.

 Art: It's supposed to be a fight but it's completely one-sided... 

 Mark: It's always like that with him. We were dragged away without our powers and I couldn't do anything because he was simply untouchable. His hand-to-hand combat skills are completely otherworldly but combined with his powers, Lucas is to my knowledge the strongest and most terrifying being I know. My brother is a real monster.
