Drake's POV

I saw a few officers holding guns and hiding behind the corner , while a group of three come fo my door. I sigh and put my hand on my stash of Drugs . In a instant All of it vanished into nothing absorbed and stored wherever it is stored when I disintegrate them .

Knock knock knock

I chained the door and opened it ." Who are you and what do you want " I asked from behind the door .

" FBI " Someone showed me the badge " Open the door Mr. Drake Brand .".

I sighed again , this was bound to happen sooner or later .I opened the door and immediately pushed to the door but to the surprise of the cop I didn't even budge by his attempt to push me . I gently pushed him back .

" Wait officer , I am a law abiding citizen of america and I will like to hear what you guys want with me " I asked my voice borderline growled borderline threatened .

" You were accused of selling drugs in Your school campus we have an arrest warrant as a suspect , You have the right to remain silent " One of them who was wearing a detective badge said .

I raised my hands " I am not a drug dealer Mr. Detective , but I will come with you guys " I surrendered they cuffed me and took me to the prison interrogation room . I am an underage hence there is limited things they could do to me ..

WITH DOC

" Smell this piece of cloth and go find him " Incommanded the final product.

I am proud of my creation , it is far superior to its prototype and far more stable. Once it has smelled the target and took the command he is almost unstoppable.

I observed it travelling through the narrow tunnels of sewers system and tracked it going to an area where I don't want it to go . The micro camera implant showing me his everything from his viewpoint.

"Adam , there is a problem " I informed hunt ." The Crock is about to hit the central police department office . What do you want me to do ?"

"Let it do its work , a bit of practice will be good for our cops .They are getting too fat eating out of our hands " Hunt laughed I nodded and gave the Command to attack .

"Name Drake Brand "

"Student In Starling High"

" lost parents in an accident "

Only living relatives are paternal Uncle who live in Kansas .

the more he read about it , the more Quinten feel sorry for this kid .

" We got information of you selling drugs in your school compound and many of the students are willing to give a statement against you " Quinten said in his most serious voice " what do you have to say ".

" Never touched an illegal drug in my life detective , and they students who are give statements against me are jealous of me and had a bad history with me . Court will not register them as proper evidence , You have nothing on me Detective ."

" We have Rodrick " Quintin said as shocked expression clouded Drake's face . Enjoying the effect of his words Quintin lance said again " He will list you all out and you will not be able to escape , it's better if you become a government evidence and you will have minimum penalty " .

" You amuse me Detective , I know Rodrick yes , but we never deal with drugs and Even if he ....

" BOOM MMM""

The side wall exploded hitting the cops with a brick , Quintin was dazed by the sudden attack when in his closed vision he saw a tall figure who has 2and a half metre reptilian tail standing in the new made hole in the wall .

" Who are you raise your hand " Quintin Lamce said pointing his gun at the figure . To his Surprise and horror the Figure stepped into the light , the tall figure has A Crockodile like row of teeth that were aligned on his humanoid face however his whole body is covered in Green reptilian scales .

GRRRRRRRRREEEERRRRR

" What the hell " Quinten Shot nonstop at the creature till he ran out of amo .The figure took the shots heading not even bothered by them , but his body is now covered in 12 holes . But Quintin doubt he will die just of that .

" Run out of here kid " Quinten tells at the kid who was standing there shocked " Run I will stop him ".

To his horror the bullet wounds began to heal visibly infront of the detective ,list like a Lizard .

...

" With Drake "

" Run kid , I will hold him back " the detective tried to shoot at the much bigger and bladder killer Crock. May be he grew up of healing from a fatal injury strengthen it . I don't know but I need to kill it or it will kill hundreds of innocent .Actiamvating all my powers I stood tall in front of it . In that second I felt stupid and laughed at myself .

" Let them go " I roared, it Roared back at me . Clawing at my chest . I put my hand infront of me and a wall of titanium materialized shielding me from the attack however , its claws almost break through the 1 inch thick wall of titanium .Jumping back I dogged the shock . Showing its reptilian Dexterity the monster got on it's all four , its Rajor knife like jagged jaw almost chewed me in half when I saw it .

I only dodge it due to my stockpile power enhancing my dexterity . It kept running too fast for me to hand and keep attacking . I activated Overhaul and the floor dissapeard Under me . I smiled when it came after me confirming that it is sent after me .

I turned the ground around us into boiling tar , its paws got stuck in it . I solidify the ground trapping it for a few seconds ,The ground turned into spikes impaling it . But it didn't stop breaking free of its binding it attacked me again . The creature picked a cop up who was hiding behind the table ,it's claw digging into his flesh .He threw the cop st me . I used my enhanced strength to catch the cop mid air. But to my surprise next second the Crock was upon me and I felt a shap pain penetrating my skull into my brain and all went dark . To my satisfaction I also felt my Overhaul disintegrating both his hands .
