Brothers' Fight: Utopia vs. Rapt

"Rapt was the cause of the implosion of the ball room two months ago. Many people were hurt, luckily no one was killed. Utopia was one of those trapped under the rubble; he as well as everyone else has recovered well since the incident. Yet a strange feeling lurks within Utopia, something that is almost familiar to him and frightens him." Utopia, Aurora, and Fire sit outside on a bench in the shade talking before the morning summit. Utopia turns the discussion. "I realize that no solid evidence was found to prove what caused the ball- room cave in. But I do doubt that it was a explosive device, or poor structural integrity that caused it to happen!" "Then how did it happen Utopia, since surely our dancing didn't cause enough vibrations to shake the structure apart?" asks Aurora. "We were dancing pretty hard!!...But I too doubt that was the cause. What was the cause, I have no idea!", admits Fire. "Then what!!?", asks Aurora looking Utopia in the eyes. "Who!!.... I'm willing to bet it was one of Chasm's 'friends'!", says Utopia, "One by one they are taking shots at us!" "Well, why wouldn't they just get together and hit us all at once?", Fire.

"Maybe they don't yet know how to work as a team!", adds Aurora. "As violently strong as they are individually, I would hate to see the four of them together!", Utopia. "So who is our explosionist, the other girl, or one of the two guys?", Fire. "I don't know, but I am certain that this person means to be personal", Utopia. Utopia quits down to contemplates the entire day.

Who might the explosionist be? Crystal is the one who found out that Chasm was the person giving everyone those horrible nightmares and put Ezel, Polo, Tempo, Epic and Union into comas and made the others all sick. Crystal confronted Chasm and found out about the other three stolen and misguided Peacekeepers. Then the N.A.E. finally admitted the existence of four 'extra' embryos that were frozen, awaiting their turn in the artificial wombs after Group 1 (F.U.T.U.R.E.) was born and the wombs maintained. Stolen, and raised by the rogue confederates, it was no wonder that these children not yet even sixteen years old acted in the ways they did. HATEFUL!

Utopia continued his normal schedule of N.A.E. and G.Y.P.R. Summits, Dance practice with Tempo and the meetings of various natures throughout the day. Only casually did he know all of the Youth Reps., he better knew group "A", Quasar, Zephyr and Jib, more so than even the 15 members of the Southern Africa district he was in charge of. Later that day while leaving the Rec. Complex Dance Studio alone, Utopia sees a dark figure down the hallway, lurking in and out of strong shadows that seemed to embrace him. Utopia called to the figure, he did not respond but merely stared a hard gaze. Utopia approached him and saw the young man to be almost identical looking to him. "Are you him?", asked Utopia, sweaty and intrigued. The dark young man nodded. "Then why are you here? Why are you revealing yourself to me? ....Your brother.", asks Utopia "What purpose does it serve you?" The twin doesn't answer......moments pass, the two stare at each other eye to eye. Soon the dark figure volunteers his name. "I am called Rapt.", he then turns away and starts walking down the hall. Utopia tries to stop him to ask more questions. Rapt grows irritated and uses his gift to cause a small explosion that knocks Utopia down to the ground while he walks away. Utopia leaps up and calls to Rapt. "Why are you leaving Rapt, I have so much more to ask you and tell you!?" Rapt turns around with a burning fire in his eyes "I have not the time to waste on a fellow like you, brother." Utopia becomes upset aswell" Why am I a waste of your time. Your sister Chasm thought it worth her time to infiltrate our peer group posing as an exchange student for a month. Yet you who claims to be my identical twin doesn't have the time to speak to me, only to spy!" Rapt pulls a rod from under his long coat and swings it at his brother. Utopia ducks down and rolls away and looks to a pole on the wall and uses his power of magnetism to rip it from the wall and glide it to his hands. He promptly uses it to defend himself from his brother's attack. Utopia rises while blocking blows,"Can't we sit down and talk this over in a peaceful manner!", breathing hard", I Don't want to fight you!!" Rapt with all the fury of the anger in his heart," You would not let me go quietly, Utopia. Now I have no choice but to fight you." Utopia heard this and pleads with Rapt,"No, Rapt you do have a choice. This can stop with you. You can choose to put down the rod and join us. You don't have to be our enemy!!!" Rapt sheds a small tear and says while still striking at Utopia "I lost my choice a long time ago" Utopia drops his guard for a moment and Rapt strikes him across the back of his head and neck. Utopia falls like a rock to the cool floor. Rapt puts the rod back in his coat, wipes the tear from his cheek and goes to his brother sprawled out on the floor. Rapt checks that Utopia is okay then walks off down the dark hallway and disappears.
