Emerald City. "This is preposterous!!!" A loud voice rang across the room. "How can you even spew such madness? Do you think we are a joke here?"The man who had raved jumped on his feet. He was wearing a sort of uniform that looked more military than civil, but was definitely not military. There were a group of other people seated opposite him. One of the other people was Stephen. Stephen kept a calm composure. His face was bland, and he was not looking at the man who was raving. His gaze was to the floor, staring in between his Loius Vuitton shoes. He was quite a fashionista. His mind was wandering. He was deep in thoughts. "Mr Governor. Mr Governor." A voice called. When the voice got to Stephen, he snapped out of the thoughts. A little part of him felt bad for getting carried away in a situation like that. If Cory heard this, he knew that Cory wouldn't be entirely pleased with him. "You seemed to be worried, Mr Governor." The middle-aged man who had just called the governor

The Mountains. Cory pulled his hand out of the chest of the elderly man! The green gem glowed in his hand as he pulled it to himself. He watched as the man lost his balance and fell to the ground. While he was still staring at the man, savoring the beauty of his victory, he watched as the body of the man started to dissolve into thin air. He didn't want to lose his mind or get blown away. He just kept staring as he watched the wonder happen until there was nothing else to see again. He sighed when the earth became bare. There was no reason to keep getting surprised every time things like these happened. He was no longer a normal human being! As long as he has accepted that fact, then his shock frequency would be automatically disengaged. He tossed the gem into his mouth and started to chew it. It's just like he did the last time. It was the same taste and the same feeling. It was surreal as well as energizing. He shut his eyes as the energy traveled across his body. He could fe

The security man was clueless as to what had just happened. The man has been watching the footage with Stephen ever since Stephen clicked on it. He really didn't see anything too special about the situation that would make Stephen yell at him. But because of the nature of the scream and the urgency in Stephen's tone, the security man turned around at the speed of a lightning bolt. "Mr Governor? Are you alright? Should I come in? Is that bastard being unfortunate again?" The loud voice of the manager was heard piercing through the wooden door. Stephen looked away from the man and back to the screen. He moved closer to the screen and watched closely. "No way." He muttered. He had just watched this video for the seventh time, and it was just ordinary. It was just like the lady had said. It was just as Linda had argued. He was about to look away earlier when he had noticed something strange happening in the video. Like a new detail was added to the video right in front of him. It se

Cory was seated on top of a mountain. He was taking the position a yoga observer would take. His eyes were shut, and his hair was flowing in the air. The concentration of the breeze was influenced, and the order was tuned to match the frequency of his qi energy. In no time, his whole body started to glow. He wore not clothes, just a pair of pants. His skins looked like the highlight of brilliant lights that were inspired by the fierce rays of the sun. Only that the luminescent was more white than orange. His eyes remained shut. His concentration level continued to highten, and he could feel the aftereffects on his body. Not long after, his body started to shudder. It felt like something deep inside of him was being stirred up. It was more of a contrasting experience.A force deep inside of him was trying to break forth, yet another force seemed to be fighting that urge. It wasn't really a deliberate fight. It was more like a fight inspired by fear and cowardice. The inadequacy of p

Without having a second thought about it, Stephen dropped the call at once. He accelerated, and off he went. After five minutes of driving, then the reality dawned on him. "Oh wait. What's the location?" He asked the air. He had forgotten to ask the man about the address. He was just too ecstatic when he heard the news. ___In one of the many high-end restaurants in Emerald City, Shieley and Harry were seated next to each other. Sheiley's hand was in Harry's, and they were both staring at another lady who was seated opposite then. "Isn't your name Anna?" Harry seemed certain about the answer to the question, yet he asked anyways. Anna didn't necessarily reply to the question. She only kept staring at him. And when she got tired of looking at him, she shifted her attention to Shieley. "Your call was so abrupt. I didn't even know what to expect." Shieley complained when Anna's gaze was getting quite intense. "By the way, how did you even know where we are? Have you been stalking
