Lightning erupted from inside Jack's body.
It felt like someone poured molten hot lava down his throat. The pain was more intense than anything he had ever felt.
Jack's legs gave out immediately. He collapsed, his knees hitting the marble with bone-jarring force that barely registered against the overwhelming sensation of his entire body being rewritten at the cellular level.
'Holy shit,' his mind screamed, coherent thought fragmenting under the assault. 'This is worse than channeling Draven's power. This is worse than....'
Another wave hit, and Jack's back arched involuntarily. His hands clawed at the marble floor, nails scraping stone hard enough to leave marks. Every muscle in his body seized simultaneously, locked in spasm as red lightning erupted from him.
Visible even through his closed eyelids.
