Chapter 5: CHAPTER FOUR: GROWTH SPURT.
Kevin was done with his meal and suddenly became restless. Sure, his late master taught him to be patient and control his anger to an extent through meditation and energy circulation/cultivation but even that had its limits on an adolescent boy. After days of meditation, energy cultivation, eating, and sleeping he became restless. He couldn't just sit in one place all the time. Khan noticing his restlessness day in and day out became restless himself.
"Hey, kid! Quit moving about and hitting the walls, because nothing is going to happen. Twice a month they let us out in another dimension for exercise and socialization. If you are good, you can be let out from twice to every other day. If you have been bad, you get sent on an expense-paid excursion to the cosmic coal mines where you mine cosmic coals that are used for high energy and fuel devices." Khan said while glaring at the boy.
"But of course, you wouldn't know this since you passed out for more than two months!" Khan exclaimed.
The revelation of his time spent unconscious of his surroundings surprised him to no end. Kevin knew his energy cultivation technique taught to him by his late master was also meant to remove impurities, develop his energy centers as well and modify his energy channels. His master knew from a glance that he was Osmosian and wanted to help him return to his human base form.
"So you are telling me all the time I was unconscious before now, you guys went out?" Kevin asked.
"Yes we did, and we had a whole lot of fun."
"Say, I don't like your guts but why don't we get out of this place," Kevin said while leaning on his transparent cell. He had gotten restless in the few months he had stayed locked up.
"Haha, spoken like a kid indeed! Haha!" Khan laughed at the scrawny kid leaning against his cell.
"I am serious! You look like the strongest guy in here, what's so hard about breaking out of here." Kevin asked seriously.
"Tch, maybe when you are bigger. Can you carry three tonnes for an hour without falling behind me? Can you crack that glass that separates me from killing everyone here?!" Khan asked as a little killing intent seeped from his body.
Kevin took a step back at that. He had worked with Vilgax some time ago to relieve Ben of his Omnitrix but failed. Vilgax is an intergalactic alien warlord subjugator and conqueror and most importantly Ben's archenemy.
Vilgax is a humanoid creature with a head of an octopus. He has tentacles for beards and has a very tall and bulky frame. His experience as a warrior and conqueror added incredulous battle feats, prowess, tactics, and a very domineering aura that made his opponents think twice before challenging him and others fearful of him of course except for a ten-year-old boy named Benjamin Tennyson who defeated him recently.
Khan exuded an aura like Vilgax and probably even more since the transparent glass was in the way.
"Y-you think you scare me? You just wait till I am out of here I'll show you who's boss!" Kevin remembering who he was as a lone survivor, who he is after meeting his late master Jack, and who he wants to be stood his ground once again, looked at Khan in the eyes, and made his statement anyway.
In truth, he was scared. He is only a twelve-year-old boy standing up to an old and stronger soul. Khan looked through his cell glass and saw something in Kevin. Something he could mold, something he could use, and most of all, a way out of without any disruption in his plans.
"You might not be so useless after all. If you can make a crack in your glass then talk to me." Khan said as he rolled over on his bed and went to sleep.
"NOT USELESS! This guy… breathe. Breathe in… Breathe out." Kevin said to himself as he sat in a lotus position and continued cultivating.
Kevin was taught almost all there was to teach in the short seven and a half-months he spent with Jack. Jack made sure to cram a few things that were necessary for his survival and exercises for his mental fortitude and capability since he knew his time was up.
After the biogas affected Jack, he was deemed harmless since his days were numbered and was put in the normal prisons where other low-rate/grade criminals were kept, that's where he met Kevin. The guards at the prison saw this but didn't do anything about it but laughed it off since there was no way they could escape the dimension completely without an access portal leading out of it. Although the guards feared Jack, he was a relic of the past but a feared and respected one nonetheless. Jack passed down the knowledge of his people and of himself to Kevin a week before his passing. Kevin mourned him for a whole day before going wild and breaking out and looking for that orb his master talked about but warned him against.
Kevin saw Jack as a father figure and thought he could gain forbidden info from the philosopher's orb and how to bring him back. Kevin with his master's teachings broke out of that holding with some difficulty but got a hold of one of the guards to give him a map or general location of where the philosopher's orb might be before knocking him unconscious. He reviewed all that had happened to him since he was *laced here.
Four years went by and Kevin turned fifteen. More than half of his hair had turned white and the other remained black. His hair had grown longer and richer as it swept neatly across his shoulders, his iris had a very faint trace of golden but was still dark, his jaws looked sharp and he had gotten taller with a trim muscular frame. Kevin's voice had gotten deeper and his appetite had grown even larger that he even placed bets on meals sometimes when he played extra-curricular games outside the cell with other inmates.
Kevin had a confident and vibrant aura around him and his control of his transformation had gotten better and just recently he learned he could absorb almost any material and manipulate it freely but kept that to himself.
Khan had noticed Kevin's growth and began prepping a new plan to leave the null void.
'Finally, I'll soon be able to leave this damned universe!' Khan thought to himself while doing handstands with a single thumb.
