Chapter 9: Understanding

P.O.V. Third

King sighed as he walked down the streets of the Canopy Kingdom. As he was walking he sighed as he thought about those three that had attacked him. Usually most people that attacked him had a reason.

However the one's that attacked him didn't have a reason or at least not one that he could see. He had thought about it a lot the past few days and he had finally decided on what he was going to do. He was going to try talking to each of them.

As he was walking he thought of something and reached into his pocket. He then grabbed his pocket watch and turned it to find the button on the side. When he finally managed to find the button he pushed it and everything stopped moving.

King then looked around and saw the blonde female a few buildings away. He smiled seeing this and walked onto the building and once again pressed the button on his stop watch.

When he did everything preceded to move again and he looked down at the blonde female. "So why are you following me?" King asked looking at the female. When he said this the blonde female turned slightly surprised and looked at him.

"I-I'm," the female began a little nervous. "I was hired to observe you to get a more precise description of your powers," Crimson said looking at the King. The white haired male sighed hearing this and looked at her.

He then reached into his pocket and pulled out his pocket watch. "I was gifted with two abilities one being Vector manipulation, and the other being partial control over time. This watch acts as a mitigator for me. Holding more than 90% of my time manipulation ability's. I can't do anything to drastic without this watch. Well not in terms of controlling time at least," King said as he looked at the female.

"I see so your other power isn't bound to the watch?" She asked looking at me. "No and in fact my other power actually keeps others from touching my watch," King said looking at her. "Is that all you need?" King asked a little bored. The female nodded and stood up hearing.

"Indeed, and thank you for you immense cooperation in this," the female said as she began to walk away. King smiled seeing this and then looked down in the street. He didn't pay much attention to what people were saying or doing however there was one conversation in particular that interested him.

"Really another one?" He heard a female ask.

"Yeah, Eliza is holding another blood drive today," a male voice said. King smiled hearing this, remembering that one of the males repeated mentioned something about someone name Eliza. 'As long as I'm careful he won't attack me,' King thought as he began to once again walk around Canopy.

As he was looking around he didn't see anything that looked like it might be taking blood. However he then noticed several people gathering in a line with a girl in front that had short dark hair and bright teal eyes.

King then noticed that the male from before was there and began to walk towards him. Frostwing noticed the male coming towards him and readied some of his blood. However to keep it hidden he had it form on his back under his cloths.

"Can I talk to you?" King asked looking at Frostwing. The male was quiet for a moment hearing this. The male then let out a sigh and turned to the female that he worked for.

"Eliza, I'll be back in a moment," Frostwing said looking at her. When he said this Eliza nodded and continued to talk to the few people in front of her.

"Okay, just hurry back," Eliza said as she look at the male as he began to walk away. When the two were out of earshot from the others King let out a sigh and sat on a nearby chair. Frostwing still being a little skeptical slowly sat down and looked at the male in front of him.

"I'll get to the point, why do you keep attacking me?" King asked looking at Frostwing.

"Because you want to hurt Eliza," Frostwing said looking at him. King sighed hearing this and looked at the male.

"I can assure you that I don't want to hurt Eliza," King said looking at her.

"Why should I believe you?" Frostwing asked looking at the male. King once again sighed hearing this and looked st Frostwing.

"Okay, the other day when I beat the three of you I barely using a third or my power. Knowing that do you think that if I really wanted to kill Eliza that you could stop me?" King asked looking at the male. Frostwing tensed up hearing this and looked at the male. Frostwing sighed hearing this and looked at the male.

"No," Frostwing said looking at the male. Sure he could hold him off for a while but after that he'd be free to go after her. He could buy her a lot of time but as far as actually being able defeat and stop him from killing her. Frostwing was a little ashamed to admit that he didn't think he could do it.

"Now knowing that why would I be here talking to you? It would just be a waste of my time," King said looking at the male, when he said this Frostwing let out a sigh of relief.

"I guess you have a point," Frostwing said looking at him. "Well as long as you don't want to hurt Eliza I guess I don't really have a reason to try and attack you now," Frostwing said looking at the male in front of him.

King sighed hearing this and smiled. "Glad we could put this behind us," King said looking at the male. He then began to walk down the street. As he was walking he tried to find the final male from yesterday.

He then heard something coming towards him and felt his power activate behind him. When he turned he saw a fireball heading towards the male from before and looked at him. He then sighed as he saw the final male looking at him.

"So why are you trying to attack me?" King asked looking at the male in front of him.

"I'm here to avenge the people that you killed all those years ago," Rubick said as he looked at the male in front of him. King was a little confused to hear this and sighed. He wasn't sure why but everyone so often he'd end up fighting people like this.

King then pulled out his pocket watch and clicked the button on the side. When he did the two were moved to a white plane with a giant clock under them. "There this way no one else will get hurt when you try to attack me," King said looking at the male.

"So there's no need to hold back," King said as he put his watch back in his pocket. Rubick smiled hearing this and began to launch several fireballs at King. Most of them were stopped and sent back towards the male, however a few did go past King.

Seeing the balls of fire come towards him Rubick once again sent a few fireballs forward. His new ones hitting his old ones causing a slight explosion. Rubick ran through the flames hoping to catch King off guard.

When he did he gathered some electricity around his body and launched it toward King. When he did the electricity was sent back. Rubick then created a fireball and grabbed it moving it in front of him.

When he did the fire absorbed the electricity and he sent his new combination of both fire and lightning towards King. King sighed seeing that bouncing the attacks back wasn't going to phase or discourage the male any.

The ball like before stopped however instead of being sent back this time it exploded with all of the flames being sent away from King. Rubick gritted his teeth seeing this not that King could tell with his mask on.

'Damn it if I hadn't used that spell a few days ago I might actually be able to do some form of damage, or use the spell as it was intended and steal one of his abilities! At this rate the only thing I'm going to succeed in is lowering my magic to the point to where I can't fight,' Rubick thought as he continued to attack the male.

Rubick then smiled as he thought of something and once again started to dash towards King using his flames to help him move faster. 'That watch of him obviously has some connection to his powers. We only came her after he pressed the button on his watch. So if I could do something to his watch maybe it'll mess with his powers,' Rubick thought as he attempted to punch King in the face.

When he did his hand stopped and he smiled. He then released his EMP blast hoping that it would reached his watch. Rubick then felt his wrist break and was then sent back and after a few moments he got up off the ground and looked at King.

However his smile faded seeing as how he was still in the same white void as before. The male then got up and heard a loud crack. "Oh seems like your mask is starting to give out," King said looking at him.

Rubick became a little panicked hearing this, not that King could see it and reached up to feel his mask. When he did he felt a crack that spread across his mask. He became a little on edge seeing this and looked at King.

Knowing that he wouldn't ask for help King sighed and reached into his pocket and pushed the small button on the side of his watch, returning the two back to the real world. Rubick smiled seeing this and back away slightly.

Rubick then gathered some electricity around his hand before sending it towards the ground. When he did a large dust cloud appeared and he began to run away. When the dust cleared King saw that the male was gone.

King sighed hearing this and began to walk away. "Guess he'll be trying to kill me for a while until I can convince him that I don't want to fight," King said to himself as he continued down the streets.
