As Allen stared into the tunnel which seemed to stretch endlessly, he sucked in a cold breath. He never imagined that the cave which he had seen to be dirty and ancient would turn out this way. He had expected Mary Jane to use her wind power to push the boulder away and was shocked when she used facial recognition instead."I purchased so many AI systems from the Prime system with all the points I had left and installed them here," Mary Jane said. "I even made the system modify this while in place. No outsider was involved in building this magnificent place and I was the one who designed it before giving it to the Prime system to work on it."Magnificent place? Allen couldn't help but ask himself. All he could see was a very long tunnel. There was nothing magnificent about it. He had been shocked at first but that didn't mean the place breathtaking. So what was Mary Jane talking about?"You designed this whole place by yourself?" Dr. Thompson asked with a surprised expression. It seem
Mary Jane was the last to walk out of the elevator, the doors closing immediately with a beep sound. She walked towards the wine cellar in the dining room to get them some drink."This is more fascinating than I'd expected!" Dr. Thompson said as he nudged at his glasses. "These screens seem to be connected to satellites in space. They're showing various scenes of our city!""True," Allen responded with a nod. "I'm seeing the various streets I'm familiar with.""There is even footage of our hospital!" Dr. Thompson exclaimed as he went to one of the screens. "So this is how she found us!"Allen silently looked at the various screens and soon saw a familiar place. His memory told him that it was his mansion. Seeing his mansion reminded him of his sister. He couldn't help but clench his fists, becoming more determined to find her after he settled down here."She even has footage of my mansion," Allen said as he touched the screen. "She's been stalking me all this while.""Stalking?" Mary
That same day Stephanie was busy preparing food at home. She wanted to take the dish to her elder brother who was still at the hospital. Ever since his mental state deteriorated she has been sending food to him, not for once allowing him to go hungry. Every single day she would visit him and there was no day she didn't buy things for him. His brother was the only member of his family right now and she had to do everything in her power to take care of him.Stephanie still remembered that their father was still alive but she couldn't consider him a member of her family. The man had abandoned their mother and them for another woman. He had even written his will, handling all his property to his haughty stepdaughter. So there was no way she could see someone like that as family. It would be a foolish thing to do."By now Allen should be feeling better," Stephanie said. "I need to make his meal more delicious than before to celebrate this."That night Dr. Thompson had called her to tell he
Allen and the others were still drinking when he saw a scene of the hospital to which had been admitted earlier. There was so much commotion and the cops were moving about, trying to calm the situation. He saw the terrified expressions of the doctors in white garbs and couldn't help but become interested in that particular footage. There was an explosion and everyone except the cops and SWAT team couldn't help but scamper for safety. They were very terrified as they stared at the flames of fire that bloomed from a particular part of the hospital like a mushroom. A thick cloud formed in the air at the hospital and Allen discovered that it was smoke. During that time at the hospital when Agent Jack had wanted to capture him, Mary Jane had shown up to stop him. It seemed they had fought and the fight was what caused the explosions in the hospital. Seeing this, Allen couldn't help but wonder how tough the battle between Mary Jane and Agent Jack had been back then. Were they employing th
"We need to get my sister right now! She's in danger!"When Allen made this announcement, Dr. Thompson who had been looking at the screen shuddered. He had thought that people from Project Erebus weren't going to strike for the time being. Who would have thought that they would immediately go after Stephanie after discovering that Allen had escaped?Dr. Thompson didn't just think that Project Erebus had gone after Stephanie because they just wanted to force Allen out of the shadows. He felt that the reason they sent someone after her immediately was because Agent Jack had been killed by Allen and Mary Jane. This was seen as a quick revenge, an eye for an eye."I think at this moment we shouldn't make rash decisions," Mary Jane tried to calm Allen down. "Project Erebus wants to use your sister as a bargaining chip.""They haven't gotten her, have they?" Allen couldn't help but ask. "Also they don't even expect us to show up to save my sister. They don't think we're gonna show up again
The jet flew through the tunnel, just a couple of meters off the ground. The tunnel was very long but the jet was flying very fast. So it wouldn't take time to reach the entrance to the tunnel."This is so unbelievable," Dr. Thompson said with a soft voice. "I never thought I would have the chance to enter into a private jet in my entire life!""And that's the only reason I allowed you into the jet," Mary Jane said in a flat tone."What do you mean by that?" Dr. Thompson couldn't help but look at her."You're not coming with us to rescue Stephanie," Mary Jane said. "It's just Allen and I.""Huh?" Dr. Thompson couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. "But I want to save the girl. I have a good impression of her.""It's not up to you to do that," Mary Jane. "You're not a player and will only serve to drag us down. Even Allen wouldn't have been allowed to go since he's not that experienced.""Okay," Dr. Thompson said. "I won't argue with you over this matter. You know what is best for all o
The jet soon 'ran' out of the tunnel before gradually flying off the ground. Puffs of dust filled the entire place and the sound of blades cutting through the air resonated across the environment. Dr. Thompson who had been standing in the tunnel couldn't help but sigh when he saw the jet soar into the sky. He watched as the large metallic wall slowly slid out of the ground.At this moment he decided to make his move. With all his strength he ran towards the metallic wall which was already sliding out of the ground, reaching the height of a child. He then pressed his hands to the edge before throwing himself over the metallic wall. He fell to the hard ground which felt very cold to his body before rolling into the sandy ground.Almost immediately the large boulder also slid up, blocking the entrance to the tunnel. Even if Dr. Thompson wanted to head back into the tunnel right now, there was no way to do so."Damn..." he cussed as he got back to his feet, staring at the car which Mary J
Stephanie rested on the wall as if she had lost all the strength in her. The person standing in front of her was not a human so it was reasonable for her to be very terrified. And the most terrifying thing was that the woman knew her full name!"W-who are you?" Stephanie couldn't help but ask, her eyes fixed on the woman. They were even trembling from intense fear."You will soon know," the woman said. "With a few days with us, you'll know who I am."The woman took some steps towards Stephanie who kept shifting backwards in fear. But just before she got close to Stephanie, the SWAT team arrived and saw the woman. They halted immediately, their guns raised to aim at the woman. They didn't see her when she entered the building so the only logic behind it was that she had been in the building all along. And if she had been in the building all along, that meant she was the one behind the explosions.Realizing this made every member of the SWAT team to be stunned. They had taken a good swe
