In a blink of an eye, he collapsed.
Virio had been eyeing the man's phone closely, monitoring what apps were on it, who was texting him, and what the passcode was. While he had been away from the apparent scene that had occurred only hours before, he understood it all well. There was an organization hunting them, one by one, dropping target after tagret until there were no more. It was, quite frankly, an attempt to purge them, eradicate their existence, until their existence was simply a myth in the decades future. Virio's face, while shrouded from the others with his ability, became solemn, almost peaceful. The boy knew what he was about to do: it was grave. It was life and death, and he was the bringer of the latter. But his fury had boiled up to insurmountable levels, espeically after those rather disturbing words uttered by the man, and he found purpose in that he had people to protect, his classmates, his fellow beings...his parents, if they were alive.
The process was completed in less than a second, but it seemed as if an eternity for the boy. The Ghoul's hand, then arm, entered into the man, nonexistent...yet. The source of life within the man beat before him, a clock's tick, a pendulum's swing - his heart. He neared it until the noise became unbearable, an incessant throbbing in his head, that of the heart beating repeatedly, teasing him with every tick. Virio froze his hand in place, then looked up at those in the room. There names were vague phantoms, floating around in his memory, but never too close for him to catch on to them. Fear, anger, confusion, painted expressions within the bleak classroom, a faint ray of sunlight protruding the window, shining upon one of the girls' top. Why were they different? Why were they hated?
The beating had halted, the throbbing gone as the man crumpled limp in his chair. His hand had uncurled, his fingers, turned fatal vessels, had extended past the heart's boundaries, before Virio materialized them,, imploding the heart instantly, before Virio's entity retreated from within the now-corpse. With his left hand, Virio caught the falling phone, immediately entering the passcode as he materialized himself, allowing the others to see him. While he began scrolling through messages, Virio walked towards the door, not looking up once. As he made the turn to exit the room, he gave a sarcastic "Class dismissed." as he headed down the hall to his next class as if nothing had happened, turning invisible once more so that no one would know it was him except those in the room. They could talk later, he supposed. For now, their cover was the most important thing to maintain.
Peter's eyes widened. "You... you killed him." He said slowly, staring at the corpse. He's just going to leave?! There's a fricking dead body in here! And his hand's covered in blood! He took a step back. His hands were trembling. Peter knew the bell was about to ring. They had to get out of here, now.
Bleddyn blinked rapidly for a long time, uncertain if she really was seeing the loathsome man greet death before her eyes.
Then a certain boy appeared and smoothly exited the room with a telltale ironical parting.
Nice one. Wonder how you did it.
Slightly miffed that she hadn't had the opportunity to pummel the disgusting sociopath's face in, Bleddyn turned to the others with a lunatic's grin and a shrug.
"I think I'm gonna grow to like that dude."
Jessi's hand flew to her mouth & she gasped when the substitute teacher died. "We need to go. Now. Forget about school. What are we going to do? We can't warn anyone or they'll kill them."
