Against the Wrath

The abilities of Frederick has reached its limitations, the flow of time continues and as expected the side effects affected Fred.

Pale and with no known movement from his body.

Thomas can not endure the scenery his knees began to weaken, his skin became pale, every part of his body became numb he don't know what to do.

Miss Finch, Artemis and Julie began to weaken and slowed down, The Reapers slowly appearing closer and closer to them. John Doe raised his hands that now holding a lead knife, his other hand holding Artemis' neck while the others pointing to the other 3.

"Out numbered, check. Out powered? Maybe, so can you surrender? Or should I say can we kill them now?"

"Smith, no don't be a fool!" Julie shouted at John.

John turned his head to Julie, the Reaper goon held her neck tighter.

"No, no, no! Okay, I will. Just let them go." Thomas forcefully answered back at the leader.

Thomas was shivering as he get closer and closer to John Doe.

"See? An easy conversation but you still chose the hard way." John said to Thomas but then he signaled a goon and slowly it placed its finger on Ms. Finch and hurt her. Thomas and his other friends were shock, Thomas on the other hand became too much angry, his anger that he kept for a very long time is now returning.

Everyone is looking at Thomas, while he placed his hands on a table nearby. A shadow approached his hands and grabbed him. Thomas and the shadow held hands and he released the shadow out of the table and the two fused together as one. Everyone was so shock that Thomas finally shifted into his kind, a Shadow Caller.

"Holy Suicide Squad, is that it?" Artemis exclaimed.

"He is still a beginner of that form, he might get short minded for it, he can be consumed by his anger and so do as his shadow counterpart." Julie cautiously said.

"Then we must do something." Artemis replied.

"Release my friends now!" Thomas said in a husky combined voice produced by him and the shadow. "You, are no match for me." says John Doe. "Sorry to disappoint you Reaper but the Night class Shadow Callers are no match for you." Miss Finch said while she is still in pain. " I can manage old hag, remember, we Reapers are also in the Night Class."

"Release them! He is the one we should face." No Face John ordered his goons.

The Reapers released them and they drew closer to their leader, ready to support him for a fight.

The Shadow caller clenched his fist while the reapers lit their hands by a flames they produce. "A one on one with the Reapers. Haven't seen this for a while." Miss Finch said Artemis approached her and help her to be comfortable. Julie also got close to them while he carried Fred.

The Shadow is now ready for a fight he then began to change his position in a runner like position. "Barriers!" John ordered a group of Reapers who then created a force field that surrounded them.

The shadow just smiled in a disturbing manner and without further ado he ran as fast as everyone expected and created shadow formed knives out of his hands and tried to destroy the field that surrounded the Reapers.. Artemis looked so shocked, everyone does but Artemis' reaction was different. She was beyond amazed at Thomas' abilities. "He's faster than the Runner class." Artemis stated.

"We must be ready, he might seem focused on the Reapers but he is still a beginner of his ability somethings might possibly happen to us." Miss Finch warned the two. "Don't worry ma'am I'm on it." Artemis answered. Julie just looked at Artemis questionably.

The shield that protects the Reapers is now slowly breaking down and within minutes the shield vanished and the Reapers fought hand to hand to the Shadow. Every punch Thomas released the Reapers have nothing to give but blood. Uppercuts, hooks, jabs and kicks it was quite a battle scene that the only winner who can possibly be is Thomas himself. "He's giving in too much! He might be that strong but he's no killer." Julie anxiously said to the two.

The Reaper goons are all down, half conscious and the leader is now the only one left standing there. "You were saying?" The shadow angrily said.

"I'm not scared of you?"

"I never asked." The shadow caller said while he grabbed the Reapers' clothes and lift him up.

The caller then threaten the Reaper with a knife.

"STOP!" Artemis shouted.

Thomas just looked at her and threw John Doe.

"I know you're there, Now we want you back. Please."Artemis calmly said to Thomas while she approaches him.

"Thomas?" The Shadow asked.

"Yes him."

"I don't know him."

"Yes you do." Artemis then readied her hands, her hands with light glowing in it then she placed it on the shadows chest. Slowly Thomas shifted back again, back again from being human.

"How did she do that?" Julie asked.

"A Moon Shifter I supposed." Miss Finch answered. On the corner Fred is now a bit conscious, "What happened? Did we won?"

Julie didn't answered but hugged him, Instead of accepting the hug Fred insisted. "Woah, woah, woah. Not cool."

Thomas' Shadow form began to left him, "What happened?"

"You just called your very first shadow, it was quite something but, you were a bit uncontrolled." Artemis answered.

"What are you? And how did you shifted me back?"

"Long, story, short explainable but not now."

"Where's John?" Fred asked.

"We don't know, probably went back to his pops." Artemis answered.

The room was really messy that time and they all just looked very tired, from a distance their was one individual watching them. A student who saw almost everything, who filmed everything. It was the newest Hoverdrive Huskies Baseball Captain, the soon to be star of Hoverdrive.

The students and the rescuer came in with Sheriff on the lead and they went inside of the room with a broken door, the room with broken armchairs, bloods and ripped pages from the teachers book scattered everywhere.

"At last, someone to help." Artemis exclaimed.
