Dimensional Descent

The poolside was quite lively. The past three days had been spent in complete leisure as the youths of Earth basked in luxury. None of them had realized just how much of a toll the war had taken on them until this moment.

What was shocking to many of them, though, was that they hadn't been bothered at all. In fact, it didn't seem like anyone else was moving into their hotel either. It was as though the entire building had been locked down for their sakes.

In the end, they could only brush it off and chalk it up to Noah and Leonel's performances. Maybe the Luxnix were still trying to figure out how to bring the two into their fold and as such made some concessions on the front end.

Either way, the group had access to as much food and entertainment as they wanted. It truly felt like they were on vacation.

That day, as the high sun began to calm a bit, a few dozen of them say by the poolside.

Gil, practically grinning ear to ear, had an arm wrapped around two ravishing beauties he seemed to be whispering sweet nothings to. The two would often roll their eyes and giggle, but so long as Gil didn't get too handsy, they let him do as he pleased.

For Gil, this was enough for him to be on cloud nine. Just a few days ago, he could only stare at beauties through a windowpane. But now, he could actually enjoy the touch of such slim waists with a single pinch. This was truly Heaven.

"Ladies, you really should give me a chance. I might be fast, but I still know how to finish last. How could I call myself a gentleman without allowing two beauties to go ahead of me?"

Gil's gaze twinkled, his eyes sparking with crimson streaks of lightning as though to remind the two of his Speedster status.

The two women covered their mouths and laughed, but they gave Gil their usual non-answer.

"Your pick up lines are lame!" Franco called over from the deep end of the pool.

Gil snorted. "Don't open that big mouth of yours too wide, you might drown."

Franco sneered. "I'm bigger than you in other places too, but I'll spare the beauties the shock."
