Mr. Grey stood there with a hint of extra annoyance added to his usual melancholic face. There seemed to be a powerful aura of lightning surrounding him as he walked toward the shocked members of the terrorist group. The hulking figure of a man holding me off the ground, Bruno, set me down and walked toward Mr. Grey. "I got this punk," he confidently gloated, "Scarlett, you keep an eye on our little friend there."

"Sure thing."

Scarlett pulled out a knife and held it to my throat as she pulled my right arm behind my back. I winced as I told her, "Easy on the arm there. I need that for later."

"Shut up."

She pulled the knife closer to me as she pulled my arm tighter, making me wince even more. The bald giant was inching closer to Mr. Grey while Mr. Grey seemed to be just standing there staring. All of a sudden Bruno started charging Mr. Grey. What was his plan? Scarlett saw my anxious expression and told me, "You seem confused. Don't worry your teacher will have a quick death. See the more and more speed Bruno has the more powerful his hits are. Just from this distance I'd say getting hit by him will be getting hit by a Bullet Train."

This makes fighting this guy head on impossible! Mr. Grey has to move! Before I could shout anything, it was already too late. Bruno already arrived at his target, but he didn't hit anything? There was just some faint lightning where the mysterious teacher once stood. Before anyone knew it Mr. Grey was standing beside Bruno looking downward, hair covering both of his eyes. He then casually reached out his hand, and out shot a bolt of lightning from his outstretched arm. Bruno was sent flying into the wall, almost bursting through it, but still knocking him out. All of the terrorists were shocked and took a step back. "Just how fucking powerful is this guy!? Bruno was a 17 and he took him down like he was nothing!" the second girl gasped, eyes wide.

Mr. Grey looked up at the fearful terrorist bystanders, and casually commanded, "Surrender, I really don't want to kill people today. It's a pain in the ass to report."

Mr. Grey then proceeded to walk forward slowly. I could feel Scarlett's grip on me loosen from fear. I took this opportunity to make a move. I whipped my head back knocking Scarlett while simultaneously grabbing the knife hand from cutting my throat. I ripped my right arm free, and turned around and faced her. Still reeling from my head butt she was staggering. Still holding the knife hand, I whipped my left leg around her and swung at her legs. I swept her legs and she went toppling down. She dropped the knife from the impact of the ground, and I grabbed it as a whirled around to see if there was anything else I needed to do. When I turned around; however, Mr. Grey already had taken down Wayno. I could see Wayno lying down next to the door, bloodied and knocked out cold. Mr. Grey was moving toward the second girl, slowly, and with his hand in his pockets. His lightning aura around him still existing, made him even scarier since he isn't even trying. He just stared her down with his lone eye, and it was shining pure bright blue! The air pressure around him was suffocatingly dark and angry. As I was in awe of Mr. Grey, a red beam and an ensuing explosion landed on top of Mr. Grey. In walked Claudius holding a vial in his hand. He had a worried look on his face as the smoke cleared, and Mr. Grey stood there unfazed by the beam. Mr. Greys lone eye shone bright blue as he stared down Claudius. Claudius quickly turned to the girl and shouted, "Get us out of here NOW!!"

In an instant the second girl disappeared along with her teammates, but not before Mr. Grey moved almost instantaneously toward the second girl and seemingly barely touched her before she disappeared. I looked around the rubble of the once lab room, and was in shock of what happened. Now that the moment was gone, my adrenaline stopped, and I started to shake and feel a little queezy. Mr. Grey seemed to power down his killer lightning aura, and walked toward me. He knelt down to my level, and his eye net both of mine. He put his hand on my head, and told me, "You did good today kid. You are lucky I was on my off period. You feeling alright?"

"Yeah I'm fine. I don't think Doctor Ray is though."

"It's good that you feel fine. You'll have a lot of questions to answer, along with these doctors, to the principal soon."

I looked at Mr. Grey in a new light now. I never knew he would be so powerful, and yet still compassionate at times despite his melancholic exterior. As this was going down, more teachers and protectors arrived on the scene. Next thing I knew I was in the principals office... alone.
