xJosiah looked to the trainers and then to Sapphire. âNo.â He took a seat on the floor and crossed his arms like a toddler in protest. âTrainee Goliath. This is not optional.â Josiah shook his head. âIâm not fighting her.â
Sapphire frowned, walking towards her roommate and leaning in front of him. You afraid of getting your ass beat by a girl?â She asks with a mischievous look in her eye. She knew she had no chance of truly beating him with his ability, but she had some confidence of their non-ability combat battle. âIâm not scared, come on, Goliath.â
The small smile Josiah had on his face, quickly disappeared. The look in Sapphireâs eyes did not amuse him. In fact, it was upsetting him. She was taunting him. He was trying to spare her. One hit from Dominic and she had a nosebleed. Also, his muscles ached and he wasnât in the mood to have a 30 second battle. âI said no, it. He made sure to put emphasis on the incorrect pronunciation of her name.
âAgain, this is not optional.â The agents barked at Josiah. Sapphireâs mischievous demeanor was quickly turning to irritation. Not only at him calling her IT instead of her real agent name, but the fact that he was still sitting and not fighting her. She leaned down further, getting in his face. âYou fight everyone else on the team. Why not me? Am I too weak for you to even bother, huh? Donât want to waste the energy on your nerdy roommate who canât fight anyway? Fight. Me.â Josiahâs refusal to fight her was cutting deep into her insecurities, and her tone was dripping with venom. She didnât care anymore that sheâd easily lost to Dominic, she wanted to be treated like a member of this team.
Josiah was beyond irritated. The trainers were yelling at him to fight and he wasnât going too. His muscles ached. He has to do more transformations in 10 minutes than he does in a monthâs time. He has been pinned to the ground twice and failed one of the exercises. He was done with today and he wasnât about to fight his roommate. Josiahâs eyes flashed red. Between the agents and Sapphire, he wasnât going to be able to hold it together. His bones started to crack into place. âFine.â His voice distorted as his monster form took over, towering over Sapphire.
Sapphireâs satisfaction was limited as she realized Josiah was skipping their first fight without abilities involved, and she wasnât quite sure it was intentional. She lost her confidence quickly, but was hiding it behind a falsely confident gaze and she held her fists up in front of her face again. She wasnât sure how long this would last but she would do everything she could to at least get a good hit on him. She wasnât going to let him make the first move, she ran forward and swung towards his chest, making her punch as hard as she could.
Josiah let out a rather loud growl as Sapphire made the attempt to hit him. He wasn't entirely in control. He was truly mad that he was being forced to fight her and shift as often as he had. But he was willing to fight, but not so nicely. He grabbed her and tossed her backwards towards the wall and stormed after, bearing teeth. "Trainee Goliath, stop." Goliath wasn't listening, he was gonna give them a fight.
Trinity's eyes grew wide as she looked at Josiah, he was different than when he fought her and Dominic. It was similar to when they had seen him in their simulation. "He isn't going to stop⊠Without so much of a warning, she ran across the training to room to find one of the non lethal weapons on the tables.
Her attack did not more than make Josiah angrier, though she could barely see the boy that was her roommate when he was like this. She started to back up but he grabbed her before she could get out of his range and threw her to the walls. Her back hit the wall hard and she cried out, falling onto her hands and knees. She slid back up against the wall and into the nearest corner, her arms coming up to shield herself. âOkay Josiah, I forfeit! You can stop now.â Sapphireâs voice came out shaking and slightly scared, hoping that her voice would stop him if she couldnât physically stop him.
Dominic could notice the difference as well, starting to move once he saw Trinity moving towards the weaponry. He knew Josiah had been controlling himself in the other battles, but they didnât know how much damage he could do if he wasnât in control, and Dominic didnât want Sapphire to be the test subject.
Trinity was in a panic, she wasnât sure what would work on that monster. He would barely flinch with any of the attacks done to him and that was when he had some control. She laid eyes on the taser gun and quickly grabbed hold of it. Trinity was willing to get in trouble for this if it snapped Josiah out of his nonsense. She put the state intensify on the gun to increase the voltage. She ran right up behind Josiah and held out the taser. âThis better workâŠâ She mumbled, before shooting. The voltage lines jumped out and attached to the target sending five times their normal amount thanks to the state. Josiah roared loudly and dropped to his knees and slowly started to shift back.
Josiah remained on the floor after fully transforming. His muscles were screaming and he felt like his head was foggy. He winced as some volts of electricity continued to bounce off of him. He glanced around and realized everyone was staring at him in confusion, but only one was really looking at him in fear. âShit..Sapphire, Iâm so sorry.â
