CHAPTER FIFTY-FIVE OF DOOM
Roy, Caitlyn, Fred, and Nilstrim kept running until they passed Harriet out the door.

"So I'm guessing she's outside the university?" Fred asked.

"Edison thinks she's dead," Nilstrim pointed out. "Either she is outside his immediate area of influence or her lifeless body was tossed out of 'his' university. Either way, she is most likely outside."

"Hey, they're back!" a familiar voice called. The guy who had beaten up Rune earlier stood in front of them. "Done running away?"

"With all due respect, we do not have time for this," Roy told him.

"Phil," Nilstrim said. "We're not causing any trouble so don't start any."

"What happened?" Phil asked with a smile. "That kid isn't with you. And neither is Peroll. Let me guess: She sold you guys out? Like she sold out Molly-"

"Phil Zeo, that is enough!" Nilstrim shouted.

"Besides, the reason Rune isn't here is because he's gone," someone else said. Edison.

Phil, Nilstrim, and Team Triangle backed down a bit. "If Edison's here," Caitlyn realized. "That must mean that he..."

"Killed Rune?" Edison finished. "Yes. And it was far easier than one would expect considering he was wielding the Beast Ring Kalései."

Fred clenched his teeth. "Well, the rest of Team Triangle are no pushovers either. Bring it on." He tossed three spheres at Edison. "Ékri̱xi̱ !"

The explosions caught Edison off guard, but he quickly formed bubbles of air to stuff the force of the explosions within.

"Face it," Edison said with a grin. "You can't beat me."

By this point, Phil had already run away. Nilstrim was looking around for something to help them. Caitlyn swung her hammer at Edison with a shout of "Sfyrí!" only for the strike to go completely through him.

"Yes, I can also turn my body into air," he explained.

"With all due respect, Anoichtó!" Roy shouted. He brought Caitlyn, Fred, and Nilstrim to the place he figured would be safest; through the portal straight to the S. S. Noatak.
