Thaddeus was among the people in the crowd that Merope was walking through. Infact, it was her hitting his shoulder that knocked her down. For him, everything seemed to slow down to a stop. Moving at superspeed, he moved out of the crowd fast enough so he wouldn’t be seen. He stopped a couple of feet away and turn toward the crowd. He smirked wickedly as everything started moving at normal speed once more.
Thad was curious to see if the woman would infact be trampled and injured by the crowd. He was a little disappointed when he saw that she hadn’t been. Using his superspeed once more, he moved over beside her as she came out of the crowd and spoke to her.
“That was a pretty close call right there. You could have been seriously injured.”
