Pushes through time slow barrier

He detonated, and everything moved like it was slow motion, as I was thrown off my feet, the wind knocked out of my lungs. Others were shoved back and away from him too. My skin felt like it was tearing apart, because the slow motion was real, and different parts of me were slowed, while others weren't. My lower body was more affected, as was the part of me closer to the front.

It hit everyone except for Mama Mathers, who Secondhand zipped over to, to catch out of mid-air, and Valefor, who blurred, hair moving slightly, but the rest of him remained unaffected.

That would be Final Hour. The targeted slow-motion, granting a kind of protection.

I used my flight to keep myself from being thrown back too much, canceling out the inertia and then flying toward them. I didn't have long, and with them this coordinated, they'd dogpile me in an instant.

I went straight for Valefor.

He was still protected as I brought the Wretch out. When I punched him, I could feel the Wretch meet that invisible barrier. I could see, in slow motion through both the expulsion of Secondhand's detonation and Last Minute's protective effect, the destruction of Valefor's lower face as the Wretch passed through the barrier.

I couldn't bring myself to kill, even now. I canceled out my power of my own volition, when it was clear that I'd destroyed his jaw.
