"Will." Alyss asked at the front gate.

Will looked up, "What is it?"

"Are you sure you want to use your actual bow?" with an uncertain tone.

"This.. I guess so. No matter how long it has been, I can't get used to the one the agency gave me." Will said with a sigh

"Didn't it have the exact same draw weight and everything?" She looked at him confused

"That is true, but I rather use something I'm used to until I get that mechanical bow into mind." Will said with some satisfaction. "There. Done, now it's ready to be scanned."

Alyss and Will stood outside the stadium where the matches would be held in the future for them. They decided they will meet the rest of the team later on.

Both of them watched with wide eyes as the door opened to a prestigious looking interior, as modern day people would say, technologically advanced.

"There, I think that's the line-up...it says...Weapon Administration Scanning" Alyss pointed.

While waiting in the line, the rest of the party eventually arrived. "Hey Will and Alyss!" They all chorused in greeting.

Jennifer laughed non-stop at something ridiculous.

Alyss whispered, "I think she holds in the humor in school too much."

Alisha nodded, "That's what we think too, I mean who can do that? Until recently Will somehow bring out this side of her from time to time.."

Fred pointed at the scanner dude. "Will, your turn."

Chris went up to the table and showed their ID about their school. Then ushered Will ahead which he placed down the bow on the table.

The guy at the counter looked at it with wide eyes, "Woah this is a masterpiece!"

Chris looked at the bow and then at Will and back at the bow.

"This thing could have an authentic value..." He trails off and realized he was rolling off random words.

"Here alright place your bow-" He was interrupted by Will who halted him.

"Hey Chris, are we allowed to scan more bows?"

Chris looked at Shodun for confirmation, "Yeah you're allowed, only one bow in a match however."

Will nodded, "Give me 1 minute." They all watched him head out the door leaving them with some confused looks. Less than a minute, he returned with something gleaming in his hand.

Alyss took a sharp intake of breath.
They all looked at Will with open-mouths, Daniela muttered, "What kind of bow is that?"

"Never seen that type before." Alisha observed, "Kind of looks like his longbow but...more...modern." Not sure what word to describe it.

Will puts the bow on the counter. "Also scan this too."

With a muddled facial expression, he scanned both of the bows.

"Alright, the information will be sent to your email...do you have one?" He asked.

"Uh.." Then Will remembered the list of information he has that the agency made for him and Alyss to fit in.

"Oh here it is." Writing it down without looking, the calligraphy stunned all of them.

"That's..." Jennifer started.

Alyss cut her off, "Don't mention anything."

Jerry looked at them, "Alright then seems like what we came here is done, our match doesn't start until the end of this month."

Alisha nodded, "Why not we head over to the mall?"

Will looked at them, along with Alyss, equally confused. "...Mall?"

"Good grief, no wonder Louise is seriously fed up with you two. She's been rambling on about how you two seemingly are capable YET not capable at the same time with this society." Jennifer shook her head.

Buck punched the air, "Alright! Let's hit the shops! Archery Team building exercise! How about MacWantold?" After hearing a low growl from his stomach.

"MacWantold?" Alyss looked confused at the unknown word.

One of the girls demanded, "What have you two been doing? Living under a rock? Aliens? From another dimension!?"

Will nodded slowly, "Hey now...that's not a bad guess..." Which was rewarded with a punch from Alyss.

Daniela looked at the two thoughtfully.

The girl fumed, "Just because you flattened the boy's team, don't you start thinking you could get all smart on me!"

Will raised his hands in defeat, "I'm just saying and plus, me and her haven't been looking at saleté all day long you know."

They all looked at him with blank faces. Suddenly a peal of laughter emitted from Jennifer, turning the attention to her. Will saw some serious effort muffling her laughter to snorts and giggles, raising an eyebrow and holding both of his bow in the palm of his hands he began to walk towards the door, "Alright, Let's take a look at this MacWantold."

Alyss ran up beside him, "You don't even know where it is and what is saleté?"

Will grins at her, "Go search it up, I read that somewhere."

Ooo

"So this oily food is MacWantold's special...huh?" Will looked slightly disgusted at the food.

"Oily? Man this is the best French fries around these parts!" Jerry muffled with his mouth full.

Laughing, "Don't eat with your mouth full, it's disgusting and you can't here a word what your trying to say..." Natalie said.

Jerry swallowed and began to apologize, "Oh, sorr-"

"...no wonder you haven't got a girlfriend yet." The long blonde haired girl finishes with a grin.

"Why you- "

"Cool it guys, we're in public here." Buck warns.

Settling to a sustained silence, everyone minded their own business or twiddled their thumbs.

"So..."

Will looked at the time, "Say does anyone have access to email thing? Maybe they already sent the information."

Chris shook his head, "We aren't allowed to know what the power is until the matches begin. That is, for those who registered a new bow or a new player."

Buck chimed in, "That's because EVEN if we knew the power, we wouldn't understand."

Will looked somewhat crestfallen, "I see.... Alright I just figured you guys might be able to help me out with it."

Shodun shook his head, "We wouldn't be much help anyway, you have to figure what the power is and how to activate it. Usually after 3 rounds of playing you just...know it."

Alyss suddenly noticed something was missing, also realizing the fact the rest of the group didn't notice there's an object not with them. Catching a eye from Will he did a curt nod. The mechanical bow is gone and I didn't see him put it away.

A few minutes later, Brash and his two accomplices walked by. Will nodded casually, "Hey there."

Brash nodded back at him, "Hey bro." then the three continued to walk a two steps before Brash completely freaked out. Stumbling towards a chair to grasp some balance.

"W-what...what are you doing here?" He said pointing at Will who shrugs, before waiting an answer. He saw the massive bow leaning on the chair. Which was all too much for him and basically ran towards the nearest entrance.

Will stood up and cupped his mouth, "Hey smart one! The nearest exit is right there."

While Will sat back down Ned asked, "That is an actual bow, are you allowed to even have that?"

Chris stood up, "Archery team." Pulling out a card hanging on his neck, "Not a problem with this around unless that bow has arrows with it."

"Pr-president Chris?" Ned stuttered in surprise and then immediately took off with his cowardly tails between his legs.

After they left, the group burst into laughter.

"If you bunch want to continue sittin' there, you better stop disturbing the customers!" They heard a call from the back of the kitchen.

Buck called back, "Alrighty sir!" and turned to look back at them. Then all of them burst into silent, gasping laughing, restraining as much noise they could.

Ooo

"Alright Will, it's your turn to be in charge of the class. Just watch the class." As the teacher slowly lumbered out.

Alyss and Will agreed, this was one lazy teacher. He made a deal with the students, if they don't tell anyone about this. He will mark them all A's on their exams at the end of the year, he will leave for the block to escape school for the time being. Also to cover him if someone was looking for him. Of course this bribe was effective enough to win the loyalty of the classroom in general.

Will muttered, "Stupid teacher. Good thing this is just some human resource class."

Will sat on the swivel chair and looked at everyone. "Well? Alright let's start things off, Brash no silly tricks...comprendo?"

Brash looked fearfully at him and nodded. The biggest mystery to everyone in the school was that they still do not know why a tough one like him is scared of Will but it made no difference, since they like the things the way they are now. Someone was rising to take the place Brash has left. A senior named Shane Verdick and just Will's luck, was in his class.

While everyone minded their own business, he stood up and walked up to where Will was sitting.

Will looked up from a fictional novel and gave him a tired glance, "Yes...Shane?"

The boy looked at him with a flash of anger in his eye, "Can I use the bathroom?"

Will raised an eyebrow and have a hard stare, Shane realized how cold and dark his eyes were having some thoughts in the back of his mind, suddenly it seemingly shifted to soft brown color.

"Can you?" Will replied in the dead silence of the room.

"May I use the bathroom?"

Will began to laugh, "Oh come off it, you already know. Unless it's the teacher you don't need to ask... I'm just here to cover the lazy teacher."

"Who's a lazy teacher?" Suddenly a female boomed behind Shane whose eyes widened in fear, turning around to see Principal Terrance.

Will seeing the immediate position of him, using his ranger skills he covered his tracks as he was taught.
"Hey Principal, mazy teacher. Not lazy." Will replied with an even tone.

Giving Will a look then at the class, "What are you doing in the teacher's chair young man?"

A breath of intake could be felt, probably the heart beats of the class would be heard in the room.

"I made a deal with the teacher and he lost. In return I get to sit in this chair and try to be the teacher of the day." Will said, lies rolling off the tip of his tongue, keeping the story short and real.

"Where is he?"

"Where's who?" Will asked.

"The teacher, where is he?" Now that was the crucial point of the question. What Will said could prove him in different situations. Places he doesn't want. Suddenly he saw Shane in the corner on his phone smiling. So this is what he was doing. No wonder he still asked me to see if he could go to the washroom. Trying to draw attention before I can recover. However not realizing there was a subplot to the plans.

"Well?" The principal said with an impatient tone.

Will said deliberately and slowly, "Principal Terrance, I believe you should check your phone right now."

The principal looked confused for a second, "It's off during school hours." but still slowly pulled out her phone and checked it.

"Nothing, what are you trying to pull off here." She demanded.

Will smiled now which was putting some people in class on the edge. Alyss too, was confused.

"Let me ask you a question, do you get a notification when the fire bell is on? From the local fire-fighting group for confirmation?" Will asked which even puzzled everyone in the room more.

"That is correct for this school's standard procedure."

"Check again." Will said, rising and walked back to his desk settling beside Alyss who was also confused.

The Principal checked it once again to see a notification. Quickly opening it, it contained an alert from the fire department.

"Everyone, get out of the school now. There's a fire!" She ordered.

Then pulled Will aside as he was exiting towards the door, "Will, I don't know what you did to pull that off. But there better not be a reason why, A fire alarms are going off. B, how you know about this and C, culprit for the fire, and the last one is a breach of school rules."

Will smiled, "You were asking, where was the teacher? He was the one who went to confirm is there was a fire I asked him to check out."

"W-what?"

"I smelt something burning when I came into the school. I checked the area during my break time except the fact the western side of the school is closed. Which was where the smell in the vents were coming from." Will explained.

The principal nodded, "That's true that place is off limits for students. Since its undergoing an upgrade."

"More the reason so I had to ask a teacher. Since we weren't doing much and it was my day of the deal for the teacher of the block. It was perfect for him to just check it out for me." Will said, summing up his false information and reality with a red bow nicely tied up.

The principal blankly looked at Will, "So..you're saying you basically just warned us about a dangerous fire?"

"I saw propane tanks beside the school on the way in...which reminds me you better warn the rest of the school. I have a strong sense a part of the building is going to blow." Will warned her.

The principal nodded, "Will, get everyone out as fast as you can."

Will called after the principal who paused at the door, "Principal Terrance?"

"Yes?"

"Those propane tanks, they weren't used for anything correct?" Will asked uncertainly

"No, now you mentioned it there was no reason for them to use those." She said.

"That heightens my assumption, there were some shifty characters moving them closer to the west wing. Which the smell led to that area raised my interested noticeably." Will said cocking his head to one side.

"You're saying someone is trying to blow this school up?"

Will didn't answer, "If that's the case, we better get the students out before we get some serious casualties....injuries." he amended.

The principal drew out her phone and began dialing some numbers. Will saw Alyss standing at the edge of the class.

"Alyss, let's go. We need to get to safety."

Ooo

"Good lord!" Chris exclaims as one of the propane exploded in the background.

Will observed, "This is getting more serious. IT's like the whole school is one big fuel for the fire."

Then Will saw Alyss running towards the fire, which he in instinct went after her and pulling her down. "What are you doing? This is a fire! It's dangerous!"

Alyss shrieks, "They said someone is still in there!"

"Doesn't mean you can go in! Let the fire fighters deal with them!"

Alyss struggled to get out of Will's grasp.

"You can't force my decisions!" she shouts.

"I am not! It's your safety!" Will said, not noticing a sudden change in his feeling. Something was forcing him, like time slowed and sped up at the same time. What is this? Feels like.. the 6ths sense Halt's been talking about but...

"Let! GO!" Alyss shouts again turning around to face him. "I hate you Will! You're the one who wants to save people. What is stopping you now?"

Will looked at him in shock, immediately the words that came out of her mouth was the opposite she wanted to say.

Taking this sudden release, she turned around to head for the door.

"Alyss! NO!" Will had no idea why he was saying this. There was something that was stopping him to release Alyss from going into the fire.

She turns around, ready to shout back. But what she saw was beyond her comprehension, something she never thought of.

"Alyss Mainwaring I swear on my life you are not to go into the fire!" Will screams as he forcefully threw the bow onto the ground. The string snapped, whipping Will on his face in the process. Which Alyss froze in shock seeing what just happened.

Will was utterly crying, "You..can't I don't know how to explain it, but don't you dare go into a fire ever."

Alyss stopped resisting and knelt beside Will, "Will...."

Suddenly a teacher rushed towards them, "We found the list, the person who is missing Jennifer Shelton!"

Will perked up, "You are not making anything easier." With edge around every single syllable.

Alyss looked worriedly at Will, who never seen Will in this state before and the fire was engulfing one their friends they really made at this school.

"But...." Alyss started, but Will clamped her mouth. "Brash! Where are you? I'll rip you limb to limb if you don't show your face right now!" Will shouted with an unmistakable tone of command, while noting that he silenced basically the whole school.

Brash worriedly walked out from the lined up crowd, they could see firefighters not daring to get near. "Chief! This fire is nearly impossible to stop! This place is reeked was with gasoline-" A loud blast came from the north wing.

"Until our two water bombers that come in 15 minutes from the lake, we can't put this out at all!" The fire fighter warned.

The chief spat, "By that time, this school is in ruins!"

Everyone was silent, it seemed like a tradition. Any confrontation with Brash means absolute silence. With a few cries of pain from few lightly burnt or injured students, everyone else was dead silence. But they looked at Will, Alyss and Brash.

"Brash, the only thing that will hold me back from putting you in immense pain is the fact you are going to hold Alyss down. Call Ned and Connor if you have to. Get the law enforcers..police over there to hold her down if you have to. I do not want her near this school." Will orders.

Before the chief, teachers, principal or students could stop him, Will broke into a run towards the nearest door of the school not yet heavily damaged.

Alyss shouted, "Will!" Trying to run after him, but held down by Brash and Ned. Fear of Will and the mere danger of the school for her was enough reasons to hold her back.

ooo

Sarah Tulip, stood on the roof of the nearby building observing. "That boy, I hope his luck is immense."

"Director, was this another of your schemes? It's a bit far for you for this situation but..either way..." She radioed in.

"No Agent 02. This was an uncalled attack. We should be kicking ourselves for such lack of security of this place....it could have been anything. This school is full of rich kids across the world." The director replies knowing the point.

"This isn't good." Sarah reported the details she could get.

There was a silence at the other end. "Sorry Agent 2, I was shaking my head until I realized you couldn't see me"

Sarah smiles, "Really now? Great job of doing that I could picture of you doing that on more than one occasion."

"What do we do now?"

"We now tighten security, track down that truck. See where it came from." Cortex said.

"And?" Hearing a slight tone in his voice.

"Have a team on standby to get into that school and extract him out if he doesn't come out before the timer appearing before you." He said.

"Timer..? What? A bomb?" Sarah said with a bit of worry in her voice.

"No, something worse. Under this school has a tiny amount of oil reserve. Tiny amount and our tacticians team guarantee the fire will ignite with the oil before. IT's not much but it will blow up. This school is finished. From the position of the kids where they are standing, there won't any harm UNLESS you're inside..." He explains.

"After that the water bombers would be here and wash the fire out..." Sarah finishes.

"Exactly. Act fast Agent 2"

Ooo

Will pulled his cloak on, coughing. Looking around, he saw the boy's bathroom which had a large lumber in. Apologizing, he went into the girl's bathroom and pulled several paper towels and stuffed them into a bag with water in it. Then getting one for himself, Will turned the tap on. Just as he was going to turn it off, the water didn't run anymore. Will looked curiously although time was crucial to him.

The suddenly black ooze dripped out. "What on earth-cough- is this.." Recalling something in Science class, he dabbed his finger and flicked it towards the nearby fire, which ignited in the fire with a mini explosion.

"Orlogs toenails! This is what you call oil!" Will scrambled out of bathroom.

This place is filled with oil? This place will blow soon! Where are... he crouched low, coughing and gagging. Using the cloak to protect him from anything as much as possible.

Archery room!

Ooo

Alyss finally lost the energy to run she kneeled down into a ball and started crying, Brash and Ned sighs tiredly.

All the adults stood beside her, saying any phrases of encouragement.

"Principal Terrance!" The chief of the fire department called.

"What is it?" She said annoyed.

"I got a call from the police, they said this place is going to blow sky high!" he said with a loud warning.

"What do you mean?" the teacher beside her asked.

The man beside the chief answered, "Not only this place was reeked with gasoline and undefined propane placed by a fire started by someone not by this school from what we could gather." Which was basically reports from the Secret Intelligence of the North American Society, SINAS for short.

"So?"

"This place, near the surface has a small...really small amount of oil reserve left. The fire will get to it from the basements and it will blow." He said with sadness, remembering the boy who rushed in several minutes ago.

The principal turned to the people around who heard him, "Don't tell that girl, Alyss about this."

They all nodded, "She would be in wreck if she knew that."

Ooo

Will ran and stayed low as he could as he ran down the hall. Suddenly the only way to the archery room is blocked. Really, he had some minor cuts and bruises. In other words he was fine....until the heat and the smoke that stinged his eyes. Small tears appeared around his eyes every now and then.

My saxe knife won't be able to do... then he felt something. The mechanical bow! He pulled it out and activated it. "Where..-cough- was that.."

He found a small button near the handle. Pressing it, it activated the bow. Gasping for more air, he coughed, "Air".

He drew bow back and an arrow appeared. "I never tried-cough- this before. I've only used normal versions. I wonder what this technology piece could-"

He fires towards the blockade, the arrow, followed up with strong winds blasted the blockade apart and some of the fire was snuffed out.

"Well that certainly help a lot. I'm beginning to like this bow." Will said with a thin smile.

He ran into the training room, checking around. They were last saw around here...then he saw a backpack.

Louise's backpack? Will thought to himself. Running over to check, right then saw with his keen eye, the door slightly opened.

He pulled the heavy door open to see two girls with the helmets of the archery team.

"Louise and Jennifer?!" Will exclaimed.

"W-Will..is that...-cough- you?" Louise groan weakly.

Will helped them up, "Nice idea with the helmets."

Louise weakly smiles, "It was Jenny's idea....it saved us a bit... had some air to breathe beforehand.."

"Is she okay?" Will asked concerned.

"She's fine. I think she doze- cough- Off." Louise meekly laughs.

Will raised an eyebrow, "In all this?"

She nodded, "Wake up sleepy head, Will's here....How did you find us? The way out was basically blocked!"

Will smiles, "I recognized your backpack." Not answering fully to her question.

Helping Jennifer up Will added, "They missed you in the rollcall I think. They only said Jennifer was still inside...not you too."

Louise looked to the ground, "They did get me in the rollcall out the door...until I realized that Jennifer was missing." She apologized, "Sorry."

"Not a-" Suddenly a loud explosion the knocked the three of them to the floor.

"What was that!" Jennifer said wide awake while choking.

Will shook his head, "This school is going to collapse we need to get out of here."

Jennifer declined her head, "This place won't collapse. It's built specially for archery playing. Outside and inside is reinforced. We are going to get roasted alive. That's why the storage room is the best place to hide."

Will looked at her, "Basically really strong?"

"Completely, a bulletproof house if it was a bunker." Jennifer said to see a confused look at the word bunker.

"Never mind, if we get out of here alive, I'll explain." She said.

Will looked around exasperated quickly calculated a better escape. Makes sense no wonder there is moderate smoke and fire in here. But underground..it's oil we are going to get blown up here.

"Is it protected at the bottom?" Will asked.

"What?"

"Bottom, is this basically what is on the wall and roof?" Will asked impatiently.

"No....why..wait is that your weird mechanical bow?" Jennifer looked off to the side on the ground.

That's it! Will thought. This better work Director Cortex...or we are going to have a chat about something breaking through "bunker" type defence.

"Girls, I need you to put this over you." Will instructed, giving them his cloak.

"Why?" Louise asked confused.

"Just put it over your heads."

They complied, Jennifer said muffled under the cloak, "Smells like you."

Will smiles, "Oh shut up."

Will picked up the bow from the ground and muttered, "Teleshot."

He aimed at the girls and to the wall.

"This better be something that would work..." Will said. "If you can imagine it, the bow and arrow will do the same. That is how you use the bow and calling the arrows."

Will shot and heard a scream before disappearing behind the wall.

Will laughs, "This is basically magic, literally magic... I wonder if they know about...never mind I won't tell them about that."

In truth, it was a good idea. The Director and the agents only expected the bow as capable of using element-type arrows. Nothing extra-vast like that, or else it wouldn't have been given to him. Of course however, without Will's consent. They extracted a bit of wood from the bow. A tiny dot from the frame which was harmless to the user to make the exact same bow.

"Now...how do I get out of here..." Will looked around. I can't use the teleshot without losing this bow...

He quickly ran to the door he came in from, which was returned engulfed with fire. Without warning, the building shook as the explosion was ignited from the fire in contact with the oil reserve below.

Hiya everyone! Alright keeping this short.. this is Chapter 4! ....i won't say anything else now. :|

And hey, dont judge, "MacWantold" was the best idea i got ='D

-Pulse!
