The kick would land a solid blow with a snap as Mathew's jaw dislocated, earning Silas a grunt from the man. He was free to determine if it was from surprise or pain. Removing him from the Earth was a good plan to prevent him from getting armor or sinking down into the ground, but it was not enough to stop his control. And no sooner did Silas land that the Earth erupted from under his feet sending small sharp shards of stone flying upward! Back to Top   Mathew Amtrum El Sensei Sensei El Jefe I control the universe!

"Smart." Getting him off the ground for the sneak attack was a good move. "But you still made a mistake." Back to Top   Mathew Amtrum El Sensei Sensei El Jefe I control the universe!

Silas staggers and leans against a tree. Any snark he may have intended is out the window along with the oxygen from his lungs.

A lack of countermeasure prepared for that was a huge flaw if Silas was attempting to win a fight. Though they both knew it would never be able to be a real fight while they were on the same side. Silas was smart enough to know there would always be an element of holding back. Back to Top   Mathew Amtrum El Sensei Sensei El Jefe I control the universe!

"Good." It was almost like looking back at himself at that age. Had he really been that idealistic and bright? The power of youth, he supposed.
