The days that followed felt eerily calm, the kind of hush that settle after a tempest.

Jasmine Kingston's iron will now reigned over the streets of Vanceiver.

Under her genius leadership, the city rose to unprecedented heights, surpassing anything it had witnessed before..

Alfred Kingston held sway over the sprawling metropolis of Los Angeles.

Even Kelly had carved out her domain in the rugged territory of Vermont.

Though her claim was recent and largely untested, the backing from both Vancouver and L.A. was enough to keep any potential challengers at bay.

Guided by the Kingston family's teachings, Kelly's skills blossomed with startling speed, like a flower flourishing under a midday sun.

During that time, Alex had transformed a decrepit building at the edge of a slum into a humble clinic-and a refuge from the world

He kept his true identity concealed, operating the clinic for a mere two or three hours each day to provide free treatment to those who had nowhere else to go, particularly the homeless.

His remaining hours were devoted to refining his mental and physical abilities, training for inevitable conflicts that lurked on the horizon.

Day after day slipped by in relative peace.

Then the sudden crack of gunfire shattered the quiet on a nearby street.

Alex only heaved a tired sigh. Gang shootouts were commonplace in that forsaken corner of the city, part of the grim daily

routine.

Inside the dimly lit clinic, he poured himself one glass of wine after another, as though trying to drown the turmoil churning

within him.

His face offered no clear emotion, but frustration raged in his gut like a caged beast.

He still had not avenged his mother's death.

He felt stuck. Without a rare herb, he was unable to advance his abilities.

Kingswell was already searching high and low for it, but the item was so scarce that luck seemed the only way to find it.

"Doctor! Doctor!" As the burn of the wine still lingered in his throat, frantic knocking rattled the clinic door.

He opened it, blinking away his haze, to find two young women standing on his doorstep.

One of them wore pristine white, exuding an almost angelic warmth, a sense of mercy made flesh.

To his astonishment, it was Bella Kane.
