Ethan's strike hit like a goddamn meteor—raw, terrifying power.
Everyone stared at the sky, where the clouds had been split clean down the middle.
"Holy shit, Ethan's a monster!"
"Was that his real strength?"
"I'm not so sure..."
"..."
Chris and the others were wide-eyed, stunned. Their hearts were still racing. They'd thought Ethan was about to lose—but instead, he'd turned the tables with a devastating blow.
"We've known him for so long, but I don't think any of us have ever seen Ethan go all out," Brandon said, still trying to process what just happened. "Wouldn't surprise me if he's still hiding something."
The others nodded in agreement. Knowing Ethan, yeah, that sounded exactly like something he'd do.
Down in the massive crater, a broken figure lay sprawled among the shattered rocks. Blood soaked his body, bones shattered like glass—he looked more like a pile of meat than a man.
