With pounding hearts, Cassie and I braced ourselves for what was about to come. There was no time to discuss the plan further because the door already cracked opened, but really, ‘plan’ was the wrong term. The chances of this working equaled zero. Damn, so much could go wrong...

I quickly propped down on the floor in front of my cot, trying to hide the chunks of concrete with my legs so Gordon wouldn’t notice the destruction I’d made. Gabby trailed in holding a tray of food and water. I threw Cassie a knowing glance, indicating she should keep Gabby out of harm’s way. She took the hint.

“Evening, ladies,” Gordon greeted us in his rough voice, immediately sending a wave of anger through me. A good thing my body responded to it quickly—it would make relinquishing control a lot easier.

I had no idea if it was even possible to willingly lure out the Bluster, but I figured if rage was the main trigger, it shouldn’t be hard to accomplish. The real problem was putting a stop to it, but I would have to worry about it later.

I briefly concentrated on every horrible moment in my life—Shawna’s murder, the day a policeman told me about my parents being dead, the smoking hole in Ricky’s chest as Dorian’s weapon hit him, Dylan’s eyes filled with hatred when we first met, the experiments they’d put me under down here…

A flood of rage hit me like a bus knocking me over. The hairs on my arms raised, and my fingers started to tremble from the fury brewing inside me—a silent forewarning for what was about to come.

With renewed energy, I jumped to my feet—the particles in my system already in the right place—wrapped the chain around my forearm and yanked with all the power I had. The air became dense as my ability came forth in its full glory, stronger than I’d ever experienced before. A battle cry escaped me, and my joints protested against the strain, but it was enough to force the metal ring out of its hinges, chunks of concrete clinging to it. I used the momentum to swing it sideways like a mace aiming for Gordon.

Just as he was about to turn around at hearing my sudden outcry, the heavy weight smashed his face. I took it all in in slow motion—the sharp pieces of concrete drilling into his skin, the heavy metal crushing his face as the bones burst apart and sinews snapped underneath, teeth flying and blood spraying everywhere. With a vicious grin on my face, I watched his form glide through the air from the impact before hitting the wall, painting it red where he slid down.

Distinct voices sounded around me, but I was too far gone, relishing too much in the moment of taking a life, watching it drain until nothing was left. Something slapped my cheek, something hit my chin, but I didn’t feel it. Appion eyes appeared in front of me, but I didn’t recognize them.
