"Are you sure about the mission we're going on this time, Lucas?" that was the question that Wilson asked Lucas who was now frowning and then said,
"A..-
"Do you doubt it?" a question asked by Vernon interrupted Lucas at that point, which made Wilson shake his head and then say,
"No… just a little worried about the mission, especially Aidan… can we rely on Aidan right now?" Wilson asked continuing what he was worried about right now, which then made Vernon feel that way and now nodded his head as he turned to look at Lucas,
"Relax you guys… I'm sure Aidan can be relied on!" Lucas said very confidently to the two of them who now looked at each other and then nodded in unison.
…
Tells about Gale, Lucas, Kendrick, Aidan, Queen, and Zach who at that time were at Wilson's residence to rest that night.
Hearing the words that Gale said to all of them, Lucas turned his gaze to Kendrick who now spontaneously asked.
"How do we get rid of them all at once, Gale?" a question that provoked at that time unmade the Queen who heard it nodded her head just a little, to respond if the question asked by Kendrick at that time was true and was an opportunity for them to get a small loophole which they would later use to stop the action from happening. Gale at that time..
Gale smiles, he now takes out a round glass object and shows the ball to all of them while saying,
"With this… I can stop all of them's time! So after that, you can clean everything up very easily and without the slightest hitch!" Gale explains to all of them who are now looking at the ball with the same but different thoughts as Gale, their thinking back then was the word danger, which also made Lucas feel that he had to get the ball before dawn.
"What ball is that?" The question asked by Aidan at that moment makes Gale turn to look at him and then say,
"This is a time-stopping stone, Aidan!" Gale explained to Aidan, which now made Lucas feel that if it was impossible for Gale to have, he might be lying, which he finally spoke up,
"Why is that rock outside your body, Gale? Shouldn't the center stone of our lives lie in our hearts?" Lucas asks reassuringly, and that makes Gale nod his head in response,
"You're right, Lucas… we do have it in our hearts to live and have power because of it, but they gave me something special so that we can use it here, with this stone they will all stop instantly!" Gale explained to Lucas, and from what Gale said to Lucas, Lucas was sure that what Gale said was true and he meant it.
"Let's just say that this stone is our support to carry out our task so that it goes well!" Gale says to all of them who now look surprised to hear that, but seeing that they can't be like that, makes Zach immediately say,
"That's good… if we have the stone, we can do it fast!" continues Zach, which makes them nod their heads and so does Gale who smiles in response.
"AH, well… then, we'd better rest, so that tomorrow we can carry out our mission quickly!" said Queen as he walked towards a room he believed to be the bedroom there, which then made them all prepare to rest for the night.
…
The quiet night at that time didn't make Lucas sleep at all, he was just lying down at that time, but his eyes were reluctant to fall asleep at all, he was waiting for Gale who was lying nearby to fall asleep first.
He deliberately waited for it to happen because he intended to secretly take the time stone that Gale had in his trouser pocket because he knew that if not with the stone, Gale would not be able to stop all human time on this earth. That's why Lucas waited for Gale to fall asleep.
"..." silent, no sound dominates except the ticking of the clock on the wall and the sound of breathing slowly and calmly exhaling.
Tuk...tuck...
Lucas frowned when he realized that someone had just tapped his left arm, which made Lucas look up to see that it was Zach who had just lightly tapped him on the shoulder.
Lucas frowned as Zach brought his index finger to his own lips, which meant that Lucas had to stay calm and not make a sound. Realizing that Lucas was confused, Zach also pointed at Gale while demonstrating if someone was asleep at the time, which in the end made Lucas know that Gale was fast asleep at that time.
"Is that true?" Lucas whispered very quietly, which then made Zach nod his head in response,
"Would you like to help me retrieve the stone, Lucas?" Zach whispered very quietly, but Lucas was able to hear it because Lucas was lucky enough to have a sharp hearing at that time.
Lucas nodded his head as he answered the question Zach had asked him,
"Sure… grab the stone right away, and we'll meet the others tonight!" Lucas explained to Zach who now nodded his head and then turned to look at Gale who was sleeping there.
"Huft..." Zach exhaled slowly before finally, he tried to control the rock in Gale's pants pocket using the Telekinesis he had at the time, and of course, it wasn't easy, because it took extra care so that Gale didn't wake up from his sleep when that, and Lucas knew about it too, which made him do nothing but wait and be tensed watching Zach in action at that time.
Slowly… slowly….
Zach tries his best and concentrates fully on getting the stone, until finally without waking Gale, they get the time stone.
The rock floats freely towards Zach as well as Lucas who is quite far from where Gale is. And when the time stone was in Zach's hand, the two of them looked at each other to finally smile happily when they found the stone in their hands.
"Come on! We must meet them immediately!" Lucas whispered to Zach who now nodded his head and then disappeared using the teleport that Lucas had at that time.
Whoosh!
…
That night, Nick was brewing a cup of coffee at Elizabeth's house, along with Vernon and Yedda who were sitting at the kitchen table while eating Lizbeth's delicious pie made this afternoon.
"Will they soon discover Gale's weakness? What if they don't find it?" a question asked by Yedda who looked worried at that moment made Vernon who was eating the pie now frown and then exhaled while saying,
"But… I'm sure Gale must have a weakness!" Vernon explained to Yedda, who at that time was immediately given a nod of his head by Nick who heard it.
"Yeah… I think so too, everyone must have weaknesses Yedda, like Vernon who will lose if he fights with me and I will lose if he fights with Wilson… I'm sure, Gale also has a weakness, we just need to believe that and trust everything to Lucas and the others." Nick explained to Yedda, who then after hearing his words made Yedda finally feel calm and nodded her head in response to Nick's statement at that time.
Not long after their conversation, Lucas and Zach suddenly came to the kitchen where they were talking at the time.
Syutt!!
"!!!" Nick, Vernon, and Yedda's gaze spontaneously turned to Lucas and also Zach who appeared beside them at that moment.
"Lucas!" called Wilson as he had just entered the kitchen with the mug in his hand at the time.
Lucas' eyes now turned to Wilson's and returned quickly to Nick as he said,
"Nick! We must immediately discuss this time!" Lucas said to Nick who was now frowning in response to that and made Nick nod his head and turned to look at Vernon who now immediately got up from his seat to immediately tell the others to immediately gather in the living room at that time.
…
Not long after Lucas, Nick, and the others walked into the living room, Vernon finally came along with Marla and Elizabeth.
"How?? what did you guys get now?!" a question that was asked by Elizabeth at that time, made Nick, who a few moments ago had a short chat with them, now shows a small glass ball that glittered in it at that time.
"They got this, Lizbeth!" said Nick to Elizabeth who was now stunned to see the small glass ball in Nick's hand at that moment, which then he nodded his head in response to it.
"He said that he would use it to stop the time of all of humanity, so we feel that it will be useful for us to wake him up later, Elizabeth!" Lucas explained to Elizabeth, who looked back at Lucas before finally raising his hand as he approached Nick.
