"Stop your research!" Again, Joe stressed.
"I don't want to." Derek insists.
Joe tried to dampen the anger, unfortunately failed. He really can't stand Derek who keeps doing dangerous things.
"You've fought the professor and master by not doing your job as an evolver properly. I've been quiet and protecting you because you're my sister. You're my only family. But, after what I did for you, you did something else that put our lives at greater risk. I can't stand it anymore. If you continue to be stubborn like this, you make, not just yourself. But I'm in danger too. Now you choose. Stop your research and follow my orders, or continue your research and our sibling relationship ends!" Joe stared at her intensely.
In his own little heart, Joe doesn't want to do this. He also did not want to say those hurtful words. However, if it were not press like this, Derek would not have listened to it.
"I won't choose." Derek got up from his seat. "You're just being emotional. If I choose, I will regret you." Derek went through it. He wanted to go to his room to give Joe time to be alone and calm down.
Joe stopped Derek's steps, clutching his shoulder hard.
"Determine your choice or I'll destroy your lab."
Derek brushed Joe's hand off his shoulder. "I'll tell you once again. I don't want to choose. You're emotional, and I don't want to make our relationship fall apart."
Joe was getting angry at his words. "You chose yourself."
Derek frowned confusedly. He sees Joe leaving, but Derek quickly holds him back.
"What do you mean?"
Joe. "Sorry, I have to do this to you. But, I was just trying to protect you to keep you safe." Joe takes Derek's hand from him, moves both hands quickly to push Derek's body with a little bit of his ability. Derek fell to the floor.
His eyes looked at Joe who was now stepping over to the location where his laboratory room was located. Derek tried to get up, but his body was limp and he could not get up.
"No! No!" derek shouted trying to stop his brother.
Joe approached the slightly open entrance. His hands stretched out to grab the doorknob.
Derek raised his hand quickly. Fingers move. Simultaneously, the door closed immediately before Joe could enter and tear apart the contents of his laboratory.
"K. You can't do it." Derek. His hands rested on the dining table nearby.
Joe threw his body at the door. Trying to break down that door with his power.
Derek with all his might tried to restrain Joe with his strength. But evolver power was fundamentally different from ordinary human power, so Derek had to try harder to hold that door. Is his power weakened due to electric shock from Joe.
Joe kept hitting the door repeatedly until it opened. Derek didn't give up. He moved his hand. Now he's got Joe's body.
Derek uses his powers to move the empty table inside to keep Joe from getting in.
"Don't stop me!" Joe used one of his hands. A high-voltage electric flash appeared out, grabbing towards Derek to make his body bounce away towards the wall.
