Chapter 105: Wound

After a while...

" Here take this" Maggy Gave a bandaid to Scarlett so she could wrap around him. Tyson thanked the waitress for help

Don was sitting Half naked with closed eyes, anyone could tell looking at his face that he had been through a lot of pain. Scarlett wrapped his wound before looking at his face.

" I can heal you but it will going take some days," She said. Maggy frowned at her words but didn't say anything.

Don's wound was still burning however His body was heating up from the anger, He was upset because of this incident. He thought he had become powerful but he was mistaken, his body was not in the state that was the thought it was in.

His eyes met with Scarlett who was sitting close to him observing his expressions, She could feel anger in his eyes.

She couldn't able to comprehend that why she was feeling or sensing his emotions, it never happened before that incident at the Base of City Z

Before she could speak He stood on the ground, Looking at Tyson. " Take them Home, "

" Where are you going it's not-" Maggy said but shortly cut off by Dons gaze.

" I need some time," He said before teleporting away from him, Maggy and the waitress were surprised by this move unlike Tyson and Maggy who knew about his strange powers

" Ah... It does not like what you think it is" Tyson smiled looking at the waitress with a smile but he quickly said in a deep voice " miss this is top secret and if you speak anything about this situation then you will get into trouble with the hero association"

Waitress swallowed hard before promising that she would never tell anyone about what she saw today.

Tyson led them outside and decided To drop Maggy first.

" What was that... he just "Maggy's eyes was wide, Tyson stopped before answering.

" Ah... His powers he could teleport around "

" Since when" She added

"It's complicated," Tyson didn't want to explain everything he knew to her because he doesn't want her to be frightened by it, He thought if Don didn't tell her about his powers them there must be a good reason for it.

" You didn't have an idea about his powers and You are calling yourself His girlfriend" Scarlett scolded her.

They were sitting in the cab While Tyson was on the front seat with the driver and Two of them in the back seat. Maggy was speechless, she had realized that She has no answer to her comment

She never has thought that the power who was adored by big cities was possessed by Don, he never told her about it but Scarlett knew about his powers... How. She became more intriguing about their relationship however she was worried at the moment.

" You should have known about his condition, how could you manipulated him to come with you to this state" Scarlett was furious, Tyson's mouth left open by her sentence.

Maggy eyes become glassy, she looks out of the window while one teardrop from her eyes. Tyson said in a calm voice.

" Don't blame her scar, I am the one who manipulated him not her"

" Oh really, And why is that?" She frowned " Tyson do you truly believe everything is children play, He is wounded and you-"

Tyson scratched his head, " I am sorry"

Scarlett was paused before speaking anything further, she had no idea why she was mad. her emotions were getting out of her hands.

" No, I am sorry I mustn't have said those things " She facepalms herself, Tyson smiled in her response.

He and Scarlett were close friends even though they didn't spend too much time with each other, When they were kids His grandpa brought Scarlett and her wounded grandpa to their tribe for their safety. They stayed there for like six months before coming back to the city. in those six months, their bond grew stronger and stronger that even after years it didn't break.

He had no idea that she would react like this under any circumstances unless someone close to her getting hurt.

" So the fire was flaring at both sides" He muttered looking out of the Taxi.

Don was sitting at the edge of the skyscraper while the air was blowing his hair. He was sitting half-naked looking down at the city view. That building was one of the tallest buildings in the City z

He was feeling vulnerable, the feeling that he had never imagined in the Underworld. He was not sure what to do next, the things he heard and read about the humans were almost different.

" View is quite stunning, isn't it ?" Ray came from behind. Don glanced at his shoulders but didn't respond to him.

Ray sat beside him, he could see his unhappy expression. " How was your date went with Them?"

Don glance at him before looking down at the streets, Ray sighs before looking away.

" do you ever felt weak?" After a long pause, Don asked Ray.

Rays bow raised " Yes, many times I used to think that"

" Then how did you managed to eliminate your weakness?"

" By eradicating roots of it," Ray smiled looking at the Don. Don was confused at his answer "

" what does that means? how could one eradicate roots of weakness?"

" I am not the right person to say anything about this because I am not that powerful"

" You are powerful, powerful than everyone," Don said with a slight smile

" You know, This world is vast, and no matter how much power you gain there will be always someone who would be stronger than you always," Ray said, he takes a long pause before saying further " But if you honestly like to know my point of view about this subject then"

Don was left staring at his face, Ray continued " eliminating roots of weakness means less attachment to people"

" Whatever you have to say, say it directly because I don't like round talk"

" You are walking with burden, commitment to saving peoples you love, the commitment of love... These are the roots my friend and if you want to become stronger then you should shred these attachments"

Don frowned at his words " I don't even know what is love?"

Ray smiled at his statement as he stood up " my suggestion is to leave them or someday you will get into trouble because of them"

He looked down from the edge " if you decide to ignore my advice then in the future you might have to face two choices, one will be to save yourself, and second will save the person you love" He jumped off the building leaving Don to ponder what just happened Before he could hit the ground he dissolved in the atmosphere leaving Purple mist at that spot.

" Love... That day would never come because there was nothing in this world that I could care more than myself" Don muttered after Ray left him there.
