When walking to school, there was a hop to Gary's step. It was a strange feeling, and he didn't even understand it himself right now. Rather than being scared or worried that he would most likely face Billy today, the high schooler felt excited.
All this time, everything he had been doing, growing stronger by fighting the colour gang members, had all been, so he could beat Billy, and it was time to see if his hard work had paid off.
'Is this really me?' Gary thought as he looked at his fist, still not used to its increased size. 'I've always enjoyed watching Altered fights… but I never fought one before. Well, even if the old me had had the chance to, I would have been done in before I could even blink. Now, though, I feel confident in defeating Billy!'
On one hand, the teenager enjoyed this feeling of great strength, but he reminded himself that there were downsides to it. No, not 'great responsibility', but more like 'giant headaches' in the form of White Rose and the Altered Hunter. Hopefully, once Billy would be taken care of, Blake could claim the credit for it, making both of them disappear from Gary's life…
School seemed to last forever for him, and while in class, the teenager sent out a message to the Howlers group chat. He informed his fellow gang members that he had plans today. According to Kai, fixes were still being done on the club and with it being the middle of the week, nobody needed their leader for anything.
In other words, there was nothing that would get in his way of what was to happen tonight.
'Calm down, Gary, there's no guarantee that we'll even find him today. It might still be a long time until we do, but it does feel like I'm close to solving one of my biggest problems.'
“Say, what's got you so happy? Did you find a secret love letter from Xin or something?” Tom asked teasingly, making his best friend blush a bit.
“Do I require a special reason to be happy? Anyway, tonight, Amy and I planned to watch a film together. With my Mum and everything else, it's nice to do something normal for a change.” Gary lied. He was getting better at it, which wasn't too surprising with how frequently he did that.
Seeing this, Gary gulped.
