Hidden In The Darkness

"Where's Derek Simmonds, he was supposed to meet us here half an hour ago" whispered Gabriel Bishop. "I was just wondering that, I'm starting to get nervous, it could be a company trap", replied Irony. "Don't worry about it" said Claude, "The Company doesn't operate in this way, if they wanted to trap us, they'd burst in ll guns blazing, but not in public, it's never in public". A few minutes past, but nobody came. "4 O'clock" said Claude, being sure not direclty to look in that direction, "It could be him". "Umm, excuse me, are you Claude" asked Derek Simmonds. "Depends whose asking", "I phoned you yesterday, you said you know people with abilities too." "Yes, yes I do" said Claude, holding his hand up and making it go invisible, while Gabriel Bishop made the pencil in his hand turn to gold. "What's your power?" asked Claude. "I can make electricity, just by clicking my fingers and it flies out". "Why did you phone us? Have you got a problem with your power?". "Can we go somewhere else? I really need to show you, I can't explain it". Half an hour later, Claude, Gabriel Bishop, Irony and Derek Simmonds arrived at an abandoned warehouse on the outskirts of London. "What's the problem with your power then?" Gabriel Bishop asked. "Whenever I use it, I discharge, I release so much it is hard for me to stop". "Mabye I can help" said Irony "My power is to reduce the powers of others, if you learn use it while it is weakened, you should be able to use it when it is a the usual strength". Claude and Irony were showing Derek Simmonds how to use his power when Gabriel Bishop saw somwthing out of the corner of his eye. A moment later he caught sight of something in the shadows. Suddenly, a company agent burst into the warehouse. Gabriel Bishop stopped time, he saw the company agent who was just starting to release fire from his hands. Gabriel Bishop, then, seeing the agent go for Derek, used telekinesis to crash the door into the agent. The fight raged, on with Gabriel Bishop always staying a step up from the agent. But then, Gabriel Bishop slipped up, letting the agent hit him with a burst of fire. The agent, just about to scorch Gabriel Bishop, released a cataclismicburst of fire, but as it was about to hit Gabriel Bishop, it trickeled away into that of a match. When the agent looked round, he saw Irony had grasped his arm and was draining his power. Gabriel Bishop and Claude, proceeded to tie up the agent and Irony, Derek, Gabriel Bishop and Claude left, with the agent bound up inside.
