Insanity At Its Best

The apartment building started to quake, a result of their busting, overwhelming and outraged aura. The two were charged with power. They continued to glare at each other for a period of time. The skies started to darken, the clouds ignited with electricity. He started to surge more power than the girl. The girl stared in fear, fell to the ground and lost her focus, her power depleted, she backed into a corner, scared while he approached her and grinned. He rose his hand, it lit up in flames, ready to strike the girl. She raised her hands to defend herself and was at the brink of screaming for help. He laughed and returned to his normal state and proceeded to smoke his cigar. She asked;

"Are you going to kill me?"

"Well, I was going to but I decided that if you just handed over my possession, also im after escaping from a hell hole", he said.

"Well, you should have killed me. What if I killed you?"

He laughed shrilly and said;

"If you had a chance to kill me, I would know before you did. Plus, I don't think you would have, because if you heard me and saw me break down the door, you would have acted fast and attacked me, but you didn't. Instead you decided to flee. Which you didn't...."

She was surprised to listen to him as he was right on point. He looked at her and understood that she was frightened, he smiled and poured jet a glad of lemonade from his refrigerator.

"Now tell me why you wanted that amulet before I change my mind and decide to kill you....I must be unwell because I don't spare lives. But I had a change of heart suddenly. So before I grasp out your eyeballs, tell me why are you here and what do you want with that amulet?", he said.

"Well, I came here to steal your amulet and return it to my boss. I owe him a lot of money and he said that I could be even with him if I did this.", she said.

"Do you know what that is?"

"No"

"That is the Amulet of Divinity, you have to be either strong or immortal to hold that. It's obvious that he told you to wear those gloves as he didn't want you to absorb its energy. If you held onto it, you probably would've have burned to ashes. That can only be held bt powerful beings.... not us. Whoever your boss is, he must be the real deal.... by the way, what is your name?" he said

She replied, "Oh yeah! It's Zoe Beckett. I'm a..... Well I used to be a writer but I was fired for not writing what the people needed to hear, instead writing the truth didn't work for people, What's yours?"

He burst out in laughter.

"What's so funny?", Zoe said.

"From the age of ten till now I have never said, mentioned or spoke about my nande to anyone. I erased all doc.u.ments such as birth certificate, ID card, passports, records and other information about me. Even if you were curious to find out about me, you can't. Now what is the name of the boss that you mentioned?", he asked.

"This guy named Blaze", Zoe said.

His eyes turned red and he burned his cigarette to smithereens. He was enraged.
