X-Sync -- Chapter 3-3
by JT Poole

// A Strange Cave in London England //

"Well well well."  Hellion stated.  "I told you we would meet again."

"What the hell are you doing here Hellion?"  JT asked.

"No what are you doing here?  You have come into my domain."  Hellion
stated.

"What!"  JT screamed.  "This is not your domain.  This is..."

"Go ahead and say it."  Hellion stated.  "Go ahead, then maybe your feeble
mind can put those pieces together and you remember who the hell you are and
what's going on."

"I know who I am, I just don't know what's going on."  JT stated.

"Maybe mother here can refresh your memory."  Hellion stated.

"Mother?  You are not my mother."  JT stated.

"No I am not your mother, but I am his mother."  The strange voice stated,
pointing at the wolf-kid.

"I don't know who I am."  The wolf-kid stated.

"You are Tobias Daniels, but you were called Tobey."  Justin stated, eyes
glowing with psionic energy.

"How did you know that Justin?"  JC asked.

"I read his mind and then I looked inside hers."  Justin stated.  "She's
Lady Gwendolyn Setterwynd."

"Setterwynd!"  JT screamed.

"Is this making since to you now freak?"  Hellion asked.

"You killed my uncle!  You tried to kill me, you tried to kill everyone in
my family!"  JT screamed, this time changing his costume and assuming the
form of another being.

"Now you are showing your true colors!"  Hellion stated.  "N Sync, I would
like to introduce you all to Hellfire."

"Hellfire?"  Lance asked.  "I have heard that name before.  He's supposed to
be an infamous being of pure evil."

"There he is Lance, right in front of your eyes."  Hellion stated.

"Get out of my way Hellion!"  JT screamed.  "I am going to kill her!"

"That's the guy his psychic clone looked like this morning."  Nick spoke.

"Yeah and if I would have known then what I know now, we wouldn't be here
right now."  Brian stated.

"JT stop!"  Chris stated.  "For some reason I don't believe you need to kill
her."

"She killed people in my family."  JT stated as he reverted back to himself.
"She went down the line of people in my family that possessed a sacred power
and killed them, just so she could take their place on the Winding Way."

"The Winding Way?  What is that?"  Chris asked.

"The Windy Way is like a magical line that you have to wait in to be
considered powerful.  Once you are at the beginning of the line you are more
powerful than other magical beings and then after a certain time you loose
your spot and then you are pushed to the back of the line and someone else
takes the beginning spot."  Lance explained.

"How do you know about the Winding Way Lance?"  JT asked.

"It's part of some stories my grandfather use to tell me.  I use to think
that stuff wasn't true until now."  Lance stated.

"Well I think you better believe what you grandfather told you know Scoop."
Joey stated.

"Well he's gone now, but I still remember most of the stories."  Lance
stated.  "There was a mention of Setterwynd, Hellfire and someone called
Talisman."

"I don't think we have time for all of this."  Joey stated.  "Look out!"

"No!"  JT screamed as he raised his hands and created a telekinetic
reflective field.

"I see you have learned a lot in your 500 years of life."  Setterwynd
stated.

"Because I wear the costume and I have the powers, doesn't mean I am the
same Hellfire you knew."  JT stated.

"Well who are you?"  Setterwynd asked.

"The names' Psion and I am the nephew of Hellfire.  Same powers, same
bloodline, same memories."  JT stated.

"So you are not truly an Animal Spirit."  Setterwynd stated.

"You got it sista."  JT stated as he grabbed Chris and Tobias and teleported
away.

"Where did he go?"  Lance asked.  "He could have taken us with him."

"No!"  Setterwynd screamed.  "Hellion find them, I need those men!  Bring
them back here now!"

"I have tapped into Psion's power before.  I wasn't able to maintain control
of his mind and powers then.  I wouldn't be able to do it now."  Hellion
stated.

"I don't care what you do, just find those men."  Setterwynd stated.

"I don't think so Lou.  If Psion teleported them away, that means you don't
need to get your hands on anyone."  Justin stated as he created a psychic
mace and started swinging at Hellion.

"Wow Catastrophe is really getting the hang of his psionic powers."  JC
stated as he and the others followed Justin's lead.

"Channel, you and Tattoo get Setterwynd while we handle Hellion."  Justin
stated.

"Gotcha."  Lance stated as he and AJ ran after Setterwynd.

// Otherworld -- The Starlight Citadel //

"Where's Merlin?"  JT asked as he, Wildcat and Tobias appeared in the Merlin
's Starlight Citadel on Otherworld.

"Who are you?"  One of the guards asked.

"I asked you a question.  Where's Merlin?"  JT asked again.

"And I asked who you were."  The guard asked again.

"Fine have it your way!"  JT screamed as he grabbed the guy by his collar
and threw him 10 miles into the air.  `I gave you fair warning.  I ask you
again, where's Merlin?  Do realize that you are 10 miles above the ground
and I am already inside your mind.  If I don't like the answer you give me
this time, I will fry your brains and let you go splat on the ground.  Now
answer my question!'

"Argghhhhhhhh!"  The guard screamed.  "He's in his quarters that way."

"Thank you."  JT stated.  "That's all I wanted."

"Psion what did you do to him?"  Chris asked.

"Oh nothing."  JT stated as he created a telekinetic bubble and floated the
three of them towards Merlin's quarters.

"Halt!  You are not allowed entry here.  Turn back now."  The woman stated.

"Hello Courtney, it's been a while, a long while."  JT stated.  "I am not
turning back Saturnyne, I have some questions for Merlin and I am not
leaving until I get them, he's the only one that I know of with the
 answers."

"I am sorry, I can't let you pass."  Saturnyne stated.

"Saturnyne don't make me do something I would regret later."  JT stated.  "I
am not in the mood for any of this drama.  My nerves are bad right now and I
have a very bad temper."

"Still I can't let you pass.  Return to earth and do not return here."
Saturnyne spoke.

"Wrong answer."  JT stated, eyes glowing and pushing Wildcat and Tobias
backwards in his telekinetic bubble, he created a beam of cosmic energy and
projected it at Saturnyne, knocking her through the door.

"Psion!"  Chris screamed.

"Merlin show your face!"  JT screamed as Roma appeared.

"What's the cause of all of this commotion?"  Roma asked.

"All I want is to speak with Merlin, everyone here is trying to keep me from
my goal."  JT stated as he floated down to the floor.

"Merlin is not able to speak right now."  Roma stated.

"Why not?"  JT asked.

"He's napping, Come back in 100 of your years on Earth."  Roma stated.

"I am not leaving."  JT stated.  "Either someone get him here or I am going
to destroy this place."

"What is it that you seek from Merlin?"  Roma asked.

"I want some answers.  I want to know how the three of us are connected?"
JT asked as Roma motioned for them to follow her, walking away from Merlin's
room.

"Come with me and I will answer all of your questions."  Roma stated.

"How would you know what I want Roma?"  JT asked.

"I have been watching the course of your life since you were granted the
powers of the Phoenix Force."  Roma stated.

"I no longer have the powers of the Phoenix Entity."  JT stated.

"Yes you do.  You still have the potential to use that power, all you have
to do is use it."  Roma stated.

"How are the three of us connected?"  JT asked.

"That goes back to your grandmother and the powers she blessed you with when
you were born."  Roma stated.

"Grandmother didn't give me my powers when I was born.  I was 12 years old
when I received my powers from her."

"That's not true."  Roma spoke.  "When you were born, your grandmother
merged the spirits of animal souls with your soul and implanted in you the
potential to wield powerful magicks."

"No that's not right, not right at all.  When I was 12 years old,
grandmother granted me a wish and I was granted with the psionic and
telekinetic powers that I know possess."  JT stated.

"You already possessed those powers.  Your grandmother just awakened those
powers early."  Roma stated.  "You are a very powerful being, you have one
of the most powerful minds on the planet and you have the power to assume
the form of any animal you wish."

"How does that fit in with my magical powers and my biomorphic powers?"  JT
asked.

"Well it seems that with you, the power evolved and it allows you to assume
the form of animals and people."  Roma stated.

"How about the ability to use the powers of others?"  JT asked.

"What ability are you referring to?"  Roma asked.

"The ability that allows me to touch someone and be able to use his or her
power."  JT stated, as he walked over to Roma and touched her and his eyes
started glowing and he started using her powers.  "This power."

"Huhhh?"  Roma gasps.  "How did you do that?  That's not your powers."

"Yes it is."  JT stated.  "I don't know what you are talking about, but
there must be a mistake somewhere."

"There is no record of you having this kind of power."  Roma stated as Chris
and Tobias stared on in awe.

"Well what I have told you is the truth.  I have no ties to the Phoenix
Entity anymore, and I only possess the psionic, magical and biomorphic
powers, that I have now.  There are no other powers that I possess."

"I saw you as a bear."  Tobias stated.

"Yes I changed into a bear, but that's part of my shape-changing powers,
which is a part of the biomorphic powers I have."  JT stated.

"No it isn't."  Roma stated.  "These are your original powers."

"That's not true.  I am not one of those animal spirits Setterwynd referred
to."  JT stated.

"Maybe that's a better way to explain you, but this Setterwynd you speak of
is correct."  Roma stated.

"I don't believe any of this.  My grandmother wouldn't turn me into some
kind of animal!"  JT shouted.

"Psion calm down.  Let her finish."  Chris stated.

"No she can't finish.  I don't want to hear anymore."  JT stated as he
grabbed Chris and Tobias and they all disappeared.

// London England //

"Hurry up Pull, lend me a hand here, I can't seem to hold him back."  Bobby
spoke as Brian flew by and wrapped a magnetic energy bubble around Hellion.

"That's not going to hold him for long.  We need Psion or something."  Brian
stated as there was a flash of light and Psion, Wildcat and Tobias came
falling out of a hole in the sky.

"What's going on up there?"  Bobby asked as he saw the event unfolding.

"Something's wrong with Psion."  Justin stated as he flew up as fast as he
could to catch JT.  "Wildcat what happened to him?"

"I don't know.  He teleported us somewhere and we saw this lady and he
blasted her and then we saw another lady and she was trying to explain
something to him, but he wouldn't listen and he grabbed me and that guy to
teleport and as we were leaving he fell as we disappeared."

"All that happened?  You have only been gone for about a minute."  Justin
stated.

"Well I am not lying, that's what happened.  You can ask that guy."  Chris
stated, looking around for Tobias but there was no sign of him around.
"Where did that other guy go?"

"I don't know and don't care.  My only concern now is for Psion."  Justin
stated as he lowered them to the ground.

"What happened?"  JC asked.

"I don't know."  Justin stated.  "Something happened when he tried to
teleport them away from somewhere else, or that's what Chris said."

"That's what happened."  Chris stated.  "All I can tell you is that he
talked to some woman named Roma and another named Saturnyne."

"Roma?  Saturnyne?  I have never heard those names before, but we are
dealing with JT here so that might be something out of our league."  JC
stated.

"They were talking about his past and how he got his powers."  Chris stated
as JT's body started glowing.  "Oh I hope this isn't bad."

"What isn't bad?"  JT asked as he opened his eyes.

"Your body glowing like that."  Justin stated.  "Are you going to attack
 us?"

"Why are you asking me something stupid like that?"  JT asked.

"Well I have a right to know."  Justin stated.  "Every time in the past that
your body has glowed like this, you have attacked us or something bad
happened."

"Well I can assure you that I am not going to attack you."  JT stated as he
got up off the ground.  "Where's Hellion and Tobias?"

"Hellion is over there, but I don't know where that kid is."  Justin stated.

"We must find him and quick.  We don't need Hellion or Setterwynd getting to
him."  JT stated as he created some hurricane winds and some quick lightning
and he took off flying.

"What was the need for all of this?"  Chris asked Justin, as Justin created
a telekinetic bubble and flew him and Chris in the direction that JT was
flying.
