Although he asked Allison to return to Flemond, she still chose to stay for 2 extra days. She hadn't seen Warren in such a long time, so why would she leave him so abruptly.  Allison also explained that during his absence, his businesses flourished nicely. The profit he made during his 12 month absence, exceeded 1 billion dollars. It came as a surprise that the Flemond Apothecary made almost 100 million dollars profit. As expected, the two companies which brought the most in was the Galaxy Tech Lane and the Heavenly Sky Diner. His hotel, the Stargaze Hotel, also didn't do too bad. Since he was away, Allison paid all the profits into Warren's personal account. With the interest it accumulated over that time period, Warren almost had 2 million dollars in his bank account. This amount included the 500 million dollars he received from Johnathan Parker and the 40 million dollars he stole from Christopher Chamberlain.  After 48 hours, Warren kept on insis

As he was still relishing in his new prey, the man deactivated his power and the fire ball in his hand disappeared. He thought he would first make Warren despair about his bad luck for running into him. Killing him would be too easy. He already killed someone that night, so he first wanted to make Warren suffer. "The man you saw burning there was someone who stepped on my shoe earlier today. I'm usually a chilled-out man, but I couldn't forgive such behaviour. So I followed him to his apartment. Luckily he stays in the vicinity. So I brought him here and enlightened him about his transgressions," the man explained. Warren was relieved that he was so talkative. That meant that there was a chance for Warren to counterattack. "What did the other three men do to you last night, then? What did I do if you want to destroy me too?" Warren asked. He was stalling for time. He wanted the man to let down his guard so he could strike. "Oh you

"Is everything okay?" Warren asked concerned. Olivia wanted to remain strong, but she couldn't hide her suffering any longer. She wanted to stay strong, but there is only that much that one can handle. She burst into tears. Warren embraced her as he tried to console the distressed girl. He then brought Olivia back to the Pavillion Park since it was close to the Protea Motel where Warren was staying. His car was still parked there. They went to sit in the car before Olivia finally calmed down. "You must think I'm silly, right?" she sobbed embarrassedly. Warren smiled and shook his head. "Is it alright if I ask about what happened back there?" Warren probed. He didn't want to be too nosy in fear of chasing off Olivia. He really enjoyed her company. "That was the hospital. That was the place where my mother died earlier this year. Or rather the place where I killed her," Olivia explained. Warren found her choice of w

The adrenaline Warren felt at that moment was exhilarating. He knew that he had to take the fight a lot more serious. Warren then used a stance that his sensei thought him. He abandoned all defense and solely focused his attention on his attack.  Jasper could feel the change in attitude of Warren. Somehow he was getting also excited. He felt that Warren would give him a good fight.  In a flash,  Jasper attacked again. He aimed straight for Warren's head. The blade was millimeter from Warren's neck before Warren dodged it. This sudden increase in speed stunned Jasper. Although it wasn't his fastest strike, he didn't expect Warren to dodge that attack so easily.  While he was stunned by Warren's quickness, he felt a blow to his stomach. This drew a little blood from his mouth. Jasper realized he let his guard down and Warren took advantage of that fact. But he was surprised that Warren could pack such a punch.  The two men backe

With a heavy heart, Warren drove away from Olivia's house. He was feeling lost and he didn't know where else to turn to. He couldn't go to James Ford because he set Warren up for failure. Ever since Warren encountered the Supreme Admiral, he knew Ford sent him to his death. Why else would he do that? Allison also withdrew herself from him because Johnathan Parker said so. Warren didn't know what Samuel was up to because ever since he returned from his one year of training, he didn't actually catch up with him. So the only person left who he could rely on was Olivia. And what it felt like to Warren, even she abandoned him. To add insult to injury, Warren also lost his ability to control his Reiteki. He was just as normal as he was before.  Warren arrived in Wellington the following morning. He slept in his car. The house felt extra lonely that day. Being poor was nothing new to him, but after getting a taste of what it's like to have money, it made it so much wor
