Later that day, Madison and Trevor are attending history class studying in medieval times.
As a teacher who goes on and on with his lecture, Madison begins to doze off in class.
Hey Madison wakes up. Trevor says as he attempts to nudge him.
I am awake I am awake. Madison says as he brushes his eyes open.
Excuse me boys. A female voice reaches out to them. But some of us are trying to who pay attention without being distracted by your whispering and snoozing.
Sorry Beverly. Madison says to her. I just cannot focus some reason.
Been drinking energy drink or something. Beverly says. I do not want to be caught behind.
Dang take it easy girl. Trevor says to her. The school year just started.
Exactly. Beverly said. It just started and I do not want to miss something important.
Beverly is a new student from Tampa, Florida. Her parents were originally from Iran and moved two who Tampa 5 years before Beverly was born.

Three hours pass. Madison is dropped home by the nurse.“Thanks again, Nurse Chan,” Madison says, waving at the nurse as she begins to drive off.“My pleasure, Madison. Take care,” the nurse says. She then watches Madison climb the stairs into his apartment. Her eyes begin to glow with a burning intensity of green fire before she pulls off.As the nurse drives away, Madison opens the door in the apartment and throws his backpack on the floor. Exhausted from the flashes that he had seen, Madison plops on the couch and reaches for the remote.“Hey, Ben,” Madison says, “Got off early. Was not feeling good, so the nurse told me to take it easy. Look, I know I’m technically grounded, but can I still have ... Hello?” Madison then pauses. He then sits up and looks around the apartment. Usually by this time, April G would be home, but for some reason, she is not.“Ben?” he repeated. The room
Two days passed after Madison returned to school. He notices that the hallways have been decorated for the upcoming homecoming dance. A heat of passion burns in his chest as he thinks about all the fun he will have, attending his first ever high school dance, and how embracing the love of his friends will feel, after so many years traveling from place to place.“Madison, welcome back!” Beverly says, wrapping her arms around him, much to Madison’s surprise. Beverly was usually the quiet one in the group. To embrace him so vocally, well, caught Madison by surprise. “So glad to see that you’re okay.”“Easy, Junes. Let the man breathe,” Trevor commented from behind Beverly. “Seriously, dude. It’s good to see you back on your feet.”“Thanks, guys. I don’t know what happened, but it took me out of school for the rest of the week.”“Well don’t get too sick, dude,&rdqu
Madison and his friends sit terrified in Mayor Pollack`s office after being caught hiding in the janitor`s closet. The sweat from Trevor's hands mimicked the sporadic thumbing of Beverly`s heart while Madison covered up his chest so the radiance of the amulet would not become obvious to the aggravated educator.“This is unacceptable, “Pollack expressed as he folded his arms and scowled the teenagers. ““Mayor Pollack, I can explain. “Beverly responded.“Save the excuses for your parents. They will be here in a few minutes,”“Let them go, Madison stood up with his shoulders caring an intense amount of pressure. “I told them to do it. Just punish me ““Dude, don`t. “Trevor said.“I appreciate your willingness to take blame, Mr. Wilde, but you are all young adults. So, each of you will deal with the consequences.The door then pushed open as an Arab man i
Upon outering her daughter’s name, Palio felt a sharp pain in her chest and kneeled covering the left side of her chest." What? What’s happening?” Michael Ask looking over his shoulder." MOM,” Palio outbred with Beverly’s voice while raising her head.“BEVERLY” Vanessa cried out.” Baby, I’m here”Vanessa reached out on of her arms to Palio." Vanessa, no” Michael shouted.But then Palio shut her eyes and reclaimed dominance over her body." Fool,” Palio shouted as she pointed her scepter to Vanessa and release a thin beam of dark energy." Ahhhh,” Vanessa screamed as the beam fired itself into her shoulder. She quickly covers her shoulders, trying to stop the rapid bleeding.But in doing so, Vanessa fell to her knees and dropped her connection to the portal.The doorway then shook uncontrollably, making it harder for Michael to keep hi
"Rick!" exclaims Zirocco, disoriented and a little dazed. " Zirocco, here I am, we're fine. I managed to keep the panther form and thanks to it I was able to swim to this area. They think they finished us off, so I didn't have to deal with the fear of them finding us." Rick said, gathering wood at one point to light a fire. Leonard gets up as best he can, recovering from the daze, and goes to tend the fire while asking his niece to sit down and rest. "This isn't right, love. CROWN is looking for both of us, not just me, but you too. We must think hard about what we do next." " Zirocco, why does this have to happen to me?" as Leonard fanned the flame of the bonfire, Rick wept, and the flame in her heart was imminently extinguished. "Easy, love, don't cry, we'll get the cure." Said Leonard, who had come to offer support to his niece.He was the only thing she had at that difficult time. "Roxy, when you freed me from CROWN's handcuffs and when you stood in front of me seeking to
Now you just have to concentrate." Leonard was trying, but that alone was not enough. The panther roared, and everyone took a few steps back. Oliver had taken his second chance to get back to the others. "Rick, please..." Harry, after a deep sigh, had let his guard down completely, and was approaching the beast walking, while the panther started a run in the boy's direction "You're not that, you're Rick. React, please, take control again and let me see your face, you're hurting me so much!" finished Harry exclaiming, with his eyes closed, exerting pressure on his drooping fists. Chapter 03: When Harry opened his eyes, he saw the panther, but his eyes had gone from crimson red to apple green. No hostility was discernible in them. "Rick?" asked Leonard, unsure of whom he was addressing. A few seconds later, the panther's build was beginning to shrink, and the black fur disappears, exposing Rick's naked body. Oliver quickly covered her with the trench coat he was wearing. She lay uncon
A hope was emerging and spirits were rising. Leonard did his best to clear the subdued atmosphere and managed to draw a few laughs. Oliver and Harry joined them and they were now a small team. Their destination, Elizabeth's house, which was located in a region far from the center of the city, where the government allowed her to continue with some of her experiments, without belonging to CROWN.The days passed and both Leonard and the boys continued to train Rick so that he could control the beast a little more. The advances had been scarce, but effective. Rick was having trouble regaining his human form, but he was no longer hostile to Oliver and Harry. The boys were busy foraging for supplies when they ran out in the shelter inside the forest. In this way, they survived for several days, while working on gradually improving Rick's behavior in his panther form. The time had come to leave. The group got a map of the area and had traced the exact path from the forest to Elizabe
Rick had lunged at the pilot, stamping one of his claws into the subject's arm, who recoiled as best he could, but was met by a punch from Zirocco that knocked him unconscious. The laser machine gun agent had begun firing, Zirocco ran through the trees, dodging, while the beast dodged some shots, and took others. "Take it alive," shouted Griffin, who had momentarily lost consciousness. The agent was firing and Rick didn't seem to care, charging at him, throwing him into the air, while the machine gun was left lying on the ground. Both Griffin and Leonard, who had come out of cover when he heard the shooting stop, looked at the stripped weapon at the same time. The two began a race, which Zirocco won. "I ought to blow your brains out right here, you fucking asshole," Leonard said, almost overcome with rage. "If you do, you'll dig your grave right here, right now, and your corpse will fall next to mine...go ahead and do it!" replied Griffin, grinning, as a raiding party in GROWN picku
