“Mind To Control”
The group relaxed in the field, as many inmates with strange mutations or abilities came out, confused about their presence.
"Eh..? Looks like we got some newbies.. Oi, why are ya outa uniform?"
One of the inmates approached, looking strong and tough with blades coming out of his arms. He approached the group, specifically Reece who was glaring back, her arms crossed.
"Ahah! Looks like this one's a little feisty!"
The man laughed, as did the other inmates as he started poking at Reece, pushing her buttons. The rest of the group merely watched, smirking.
"So little girl, what puny power do you hav-"
Reece held her arm out, the flesh and bone mutilating as it wrapped around the man, muffled screams for help then heard as she began crushing him.
The inmates all backed away in shock as Reece then dropped the man, her arm returning to normal as she walked over the man's sobbing body, as did the others.
"Yawn.. I expected better from such a high-state prison.."
She looked back at the others with a smirk.
"I guess we're the minority in terms of strength.. Makes sense, I didn't even know there were this many people with abilities, and we don't all start at the top, I suppose..!"
Reece laughed to herself, everyone in shock, their confidence ended in just that moment. Reece walked towards the crowd before a slow clapping was heard.
"Well, well.. Seems there's some newcomers worthy of my presence..!"
A voice was heard, the inmates looking back as a young man walked through the crowd. Like the group he didn't have to wear the inmate outfit.
"Eh..? Who are you..?"
Reece said, placing her yand on her hip as she glared to him cockily, raising an eyebrow. She was really turning back to her delinquent ways in this atmosphere.
"Oh, no need to be so hostile.. I'm known as the big dog around here, the strongest.. and I plan to keep the title."
He approached Reece. He wore a formal black jacket, his hair blonde as he wore sunglasses, though a red energy could be felt piercing through.
"Yeah, if you say so.. The hell's your power, besides looking like a cuck."
Reece said, the young man laughing to her title as he placed his hand under her chin, gently brushing up it as he tilted her head up to face him.
"Shh, shh.. My name's Blake, and I'm the world's strongest esper.."
Blake smiled, caressing her cheek as she gritted her teeth. Morell sighed and walked up, swinging two fingers at his neck.
To surprise, he managed to dodge Morell's attack, a reddish purple aura surrounding himself as behind his glasses were a red aura flame.
"Woah now, no need to attack me, you'll regret it..!"
His grin increased as he looked to Morell, his grin quickly leaving his face as he sensed her aura, a menacing dark purple, much larger then his.
"Y-You're an esper too.. Wait.."
He looked at the rest of the group, them all carrying an aura of some sort. Blake gasped, he thought he was the only one.
"We're not espers."
Morell said, walking up to Blake as she put her hand on his shoulder, glaring into his eyes.
"Auras represent your ability, I can't actually see auras but I can sense them. The size represents your power, so it seems you're not entirely incompetent.."
Morell then smiled, though a feeling of fear was delivered through her eyes, her glare increasing as Blake tensed up.
"I'm Morell, the doll god."
She then lightly pushed Blake, but just that was wnough to have him tumble back in fear, the rest of the inmates left in shock as she looked around.
"I request your 10 strongest."
The rest of the group were confused on what he was planning, as Bennett placed his hand on her shoulder.
"Uh.. What are you planning..?"
Morell shrugged, the inmates looking around at themselves, looking for the strongest few.
"I'm curious, that's all."
She said, picking Blake up as a dark energy formed from her hand, she was possessing his sight, facing him to the crowd.
"Your eyes are very useful, don't worry, I don't plan to harm anyone.. I'm a pacifist now…!"
She said, looking around, it didn't seem that there was a single other inmate with a strong enough power to even develop an aura as she sighed.
"Aw.. that's a disapointment.. I expected at least one of you to have a smidge of aura.. Don't worry, as I serve my time here I plan to train you to your full potential."
She said, some innmates worried, others somewhat excited to grow their powers stronger. Blake was gritting teeth, upset about being made a fool as he broke out of her grip, the aura on his hands increasing as he charged his psychic energy.
"Oop..! Aku, handle this, please."
Morell said, stepping back as Aku rushed ahead. He unsheathed his sword, water forming as it floated around it.
"Huh..? Water..? You're gonna fight a powerful psychic like me with water..!?"
Blake laughed, the ground cracking as debris floated in the air. He cracked his knuckles as Aku merely glared at him, wordless.
Everyone backed away from the two as Blake rushed at him, delivering a powerful psionic punch, even Aku had to admit it wasn't something he could tank, quickly dodging it.
"Holy Hand Grenade."
He muttered, slashing his sword as a shine of light formed, a giant explosion of water forming as Blake formed a psionic shield, his shield easily shattering though it held off the attack.
"What the..-"
Aku quickly followed with a mick to the neck, launching Blake a few steps back as he finished to sequence with a high power thrust, water firing out the tip of his blade like a bullet.
Blake incased his hands with psionic energy as he redirected the blade, following with a punch to Aku's gut as he stumbled back a bit.
"Damn it.."
Aku sighed, a geyser forming between the two as water fired out, causing them both to be sent back, standing at each end of the area.
The geyser quickly dispersed as Aku glared at Blake from afar, Blake doing the same. The two charged their energy, their energy clashing together, red vs blue.
Morell stepped in the middle, an amused smile on her face as she raised her hand, both Aku and Blake ready to charge forth as Morell then swung her hand down.
"3.. 2.. 1.. Begin..!"
