They hadn't cleaned the blood up. 'Retards...' Epic thought After checking that those men were defiantly gone, Epic came out of his hiding spot. "I wonder what they were talking about..." He said to himself. He thought it would be best to clean the blood himself, it's something to do at least. After he had finished cleaning the blood, Epic discovered that he was starving. He wanted to eat something... He looked for a fridge, or someplace that food might be stored. No luck. He was going to have to wait for Sophie to get back. Hopefully she wont take long. He had been sleeping on the couch in Sophie's lounge. He decided to sleep for a while. What Epic didn't know was that one of Otto's men stayed behind, at the house...
When Epic awoke he was sitting on a chair his hands were bound to the chairs arms with ropes, his legs were bound to the chairs front 2 legs with the same method. He saw someone, he didn't know who it was. Sophie had told him that he was to under no circumstances talk to people he didn't know in The Hive. So he remained quiet. "You finally woke up?" the unknown man said in a harsh tone. Epic stayed silent. The man turned to face Epic. " Who are you? Why aren't you registered in King Apoc's database?" The man demanded Silence was Epic's best asset at the moment, it would buy him time, hopefully Sophie would return soon. "Anwser me!" the man was infuriated at Epic's reluctance to speak up. The man started glowing, he produced a ball of energy. 'Does everyone in this world have powers?' Epic wondered "Last chance!" The man shouted. Epic still remained silent. "Then you leave me no choice..." The man fired his energy ball at Epic. Epic heard a smash, he closed his eyes waiting for the worst. But it didn't come. He opened his eyes to see Sophie stood infront of him, but she collapsed. She must have shielded Epic at the last second. The man now revealed a knife and advanced on Epic. Epic was certain this was the end for him. As the man lunged at Epic with the blade, Epic felt a strange power rush through his veins. He started glowing red, and just before the blade pierced him, he unleashed an inferno from his body, everything near him was burnt the man was incinerated almost instantaneously. Sophie had survived as the man was standing in-between her and Epic but even so, she was severly burnt. Epic stood upright for w couple of seconds, then he collapsed, unconscious...
