The SWAT team member continued to hold Stephanie's hand as he ran very fast. It appeared as if he was not going to stop no matter how the young woman screamed at him to do so. He had been given orders by the captain to take the woman away and he wasn't going to disobey no matter what.The situation which had occurred at the hospital was related to terrorist activity. It had caused multiple explosions in the hospital, almost killing all the patients and doctors in the hospital. If there had been anybody in the area where the explosions had occurred at that time, they would have been already dead. So when the strange woman appeared in the area where the multiple explosions had taken place, all the SWAT team members suspected her. She had given off the dangerous aura of a murderer and that was why he had been tasked with leading this woman away."Please don't try to go into that place!" the SWAT team member yelled as he continued running. "You should have seen how dangerous that woman ap

"Get behind me!" the SWAT team member turned to tell Stephanie in a very urgent voice. Despite being faced with danger himself he still remembered the Captain's words to protect the young woman beside him. Even when he knew that the woman in front of him was way more dangerous than he had anticipated, he was still willing to put his life on the line for the young woman beside him. This showed that he was selfless and willing to die for his nation."She's very dangerous..." Stephanie squeezed out the words as she went to stand behind the SWAT team member. She was still shivering from her fear of this young woman who could vanish and appear anywhere she wanted."Why is it that you normal humans love to court death so much?" the mysterious woman spoke. "Why is it that you guys find it hard to learn that you cannot fight the Evolved?""The Evolved..." the SWAT team member suddenly muttered in fear. He had heard that term somewhere and it was something that carried a terror behind it.Seei

The SWAT team member was shivering as Morgana continued talking as if she was their lost long friend. His fingers clenching the gun tightened very much and all the muscles of his body became taut. Something kept screaming in his head to drop the gun and escape, leaving behind the young woman behind him. But his discipline won over at the end and he didn't act based on instinct.No matter how the woman talked and moved, the SWAT team member didn't for once let his eyes go off her. He was ready to shoot the woman once he found the opportunity, even if it meant dying. If he was going to die avenging all his team members then so be it. He would gladly die with a smile, knowing fully well that he had gotten rid of the woman who had killed them. But it was easier said than done in reality. The woman in front of him was not even normal to begin with. She was an Evolved, someone with supernatural abilities that could wipe out several humans at once. She had ended over five members of his team

Stephanie had already made a dash for it before Morgana even knocked the SWAT team member unconscious. She had darted past the both of them when the SWAT team member had been holding Morgana, running with all her strength as if her life depended on it. Well, that was the truth. Her life depended on the run. This was because if she was finally caught, something very dreadful would happen to her. And that wasn't what she wanted at all.She ran faster and faster until she could see the entrance several meters away. Seeing the entrance seemed to pump her adrenaline, giving her so much energy to run faster. She had finally seen her escape route from the hospital and couldn't wait to get to it."Do you think escaping from me is that easy?" she heard a soft voice before she was knocked in the head and sent tumbling down. She rolled over the tiled floor before crashing her back into the wall. This caused her vision to blur as she coughed out a mouthful of blood."If I wanted you dead, you wou

After hearing the sound of blades cutting through the air Stephanie had already kicked out at Morgana. She hadn't known that she would actually hit the female agent and was just trying it out of luck. If she didn't succeed at most she would incur Morgana's wrath and get hit. Who would have thought she would be able to hit Morgana with her first trial? It was like a dream come true, a light at the end of a dark tunnel.So after seeing that Morgana had crashed to the ground, Stephanie didn't hesitate to run. She had seen how terrifying this woman was and didn't want to be captured by her at all. But then she hadn't run fifteen paces when the woman recovered and appeared in front of her, reaching out her right hand to grab Stephanie by her right shoulder."Playing games with you is finally over," Morgana said with a very stern expression. "Now's time to be serious and send you to Project Erebus for the bargain."It was at that moment Stephanie knew the true meaning of desperation. She ha

Seeing Allen hug his sister, Mary Jane couldn't help but have an undescribable feeling but she quickly restrained it. She then fixed her attention on Morgana who had failed to shoot Stephanie, summoning her longsword which could absorb physical attacks and redirect them.Morgana remained standing, her eyes glaring at the car which had driven to block her. She was filled with the sudden urge to kill whoever was manning the wheels. She aimed the gun at the car's gas tank, hoping to shoot it and kill everyone at once."You guys have messed with me so much," she said silently. "It's time for you all to have a taste of your own bitter medicine."Allen had already disengaged from the hug, turning his head in Morgana's direction. He couldn't help but wonder who this woman was despite knowing that she was an agent from Project Erebus."She can vanish into thin air," Stephanie spoke softly, her eyes on the woman who had tried to capture her a few minutes ago. Everything felt like a dream and s

Seeing the device in Morgana's hand, everyone couldn't help but have an ominous feeling. Even though they had not seen a real-time bomb, there were several of them in movies so they were all privy to the one Morgana wanted to detonate right now!"Oh no..." Allen couldn't help but mutter in fear as he shielded Stephanie. He knew that Morgana would detonate the bomb and it would kill all of them. Morgana had the power of teleportation so she would immediately vanish the moment she detonated the bomb.From an angle, Morgana's power didn't seem terrifying. One would think that she could only vanish and teleport objects away. But if given dangerous weapons, Morgana would turn out to be a very dangerous Evolved.Morgana's finger quickly moved to press the button as she said, "You've lost.""No!" Allen yelled and pushed Stephanie far away, trying to take up his pair of sunglasses and wear them.On the other hand, Mary Jane immediately leaped into the air and swung the longsword in her hand a

When Morgana grabbed her from behind Stephanie didn't show much fear as before. It seemed she had become used to being threatened and didn't shudder as she used to do. She could feel something hard and cold touching her back, and her heart beating rapidly."I would stop if I were the both of you," Morgana said, staring at Allen who was holding a round black device. His finger was suspended over a button after hearing Morgana's voice."Whatever you're gonna do will eventually affect your poor little sister," Morgana said. "She would end up dying and there would be nothing you'd be able to do.""Then what are you waiting for?" Stephanie suddenly said. "What the fuck are you waiting for? Why don't you go ahead and kill me?"Morgana scoffed as she pulled on Stephanie's hair, dragging her backward, "I hate bold types like you. The only thing I love about them is the way they all die by my hands."She was still talking and everyone's attention was on her. No one noticed the SWAT team member

Allen quickly dodged the bullet, thanks to Ultimate who had easily pointed out where he would shoot from. "Try again in hell," Allen said and a gun was shot at Moses on his hand, making his gun drop. Everyone averted their gazes to the door and saw two familiar men standing there, Sylvester Williams and David, the last two users. "One thing I hate the most is to be fooled and you all fooled me," Williams said and stepped forward. "All these years, I believed my death would bring calmness to the world. I thought I was doing it for the good and safety of this world. I even went as far as hunting down the other users just to satisfy you. I should have known better."Lake and Mike tried to attack but they got shot instantly by Mary and Josh who both walked in together. "I hope I am not too late?" Mary asked and crocked her gun. "You- you should be dead," Lake said, groaning in pain. "Unfortunately, I am not. I am your nemesis and that's why I survived," Mary answered and pointed her

The hall became silent as they all had their eyes on him. Suddenly, one of them stood up and smirked. "Allen Scott, we have been expecting you. You came right to us," he said. Allen crocked his gun and pointed it at him. "Yes. And I am here to end this nonsense. Enough with all his. You all have hunted our lives for years but today, all this is going to end."The man clicked his tongue and shook his head. "Do you think all these would be the end?""I don't think. I know. Besides, no one is going to save any of you. The agents are gone."The man averted his gaze to Moses and shook his head. "You finally got them. I am sure you told them about you being the good guy and we being the bad guy."Allen drew his brows and looked at Moses who had no expression on his face. He immediately knew what Mary said was true. They were to be trusted and for that, he wasn't surprised. "Mr Scott, do you believe everything this man told you?" Allen looked at Moses again and smirked. "Why shouldn't I

Mary noticed the man secretly smiling at someone behind her and when she turned, she saw it was George. Her heart skipped a bit. He was smoking back at them but in a way that said 'good job,' she swallowed hard and looked at the men as her instinct immediately pointed at George as a member of the group that attacked them. She quickly shook her head and tried to brush off her thought. "No, George wouldn't do this. He is part of this team and has been a loyal member," she concluded inwardly and glanced at him one more time. This time, she noticed he was staring back at her with a frown plastered on his face. He stared for a while before he let out a small smile.She gulped nervously and looked away. "This can't be. George can't be part of them," she said and stood up, bringing everyone's attention to her. "What is wrong?" Allen asked, staring at her with concern. She looked at George again who had his brows creased. She couldn't take away the thought that he could be one of them an

"Tomorrow?" Josh asked with his eyes stretched wide. He walked forward and went on, "What do you mean tomorrow? We aren't prepared to face this people. We would need more time.""Mr Gregory," Moses called, taking Josh by surprise because he never expected him to know his name. Moses went on, "It was a quick date fixed and I have no power to stop it. The project society are been too anxious and that would be our greatest weapon against them.""Greatest weapon? In what way would we win this fight when I don't even have a clue of what you are talking about?""They are moving quick. Tomorrow is the day for the project," Lake answered."How is that possible? We haven't been caught by them," Josh asked, stepping forward."They have you all where they want you. They will come over to take you tonight."Allen drew his brows in confusion. "What do you mean? How do they have us right where they want?""Do you think the society are dumb? They know where you all are. They have been monitoring you

Steph abruptly stood up, shocked to see her standing there. She swallowed hard and asked nervously, "how long have you been there?""For a while," she answered and walked in completely. "There is someone who wants to meet you," she said and quickly walked out of the room. Steph sighed deeply and faced Allen who stood quietly, staring at the closed door. "She heard us. I feel so bad," she muttered."Let me go and meet this guests of mine," he answered dryly and walked out of the room. "This guy is messed up," she muttered and went after him. They got to the living room and Allen drew his brows, seeing the strange faces in the living room. As he drew closer, they all stood up. "Hello, Mr Scott," they greeted in unison.He got closer and stood before them. "Hello to you too. How may I help you?" He asked. "I am Moses Banks, this man beside me," he pointed at the man by his right side. "Is Lake Hall. And the second here is Dennis. We are all aware of your position as the subject been

"Brother I-" Steph barged into the room and her words hung in her throat when she saw Allen and Mary jerked up. Just when their lips met, they got distracted. Steph who had noticed what they were doing, looked down embarrassed. "I am sorry for barging in this way," she apologized. Allen's eyes stretched wide, realizing what he had done with Mary. He looked at her and noticed she looked embarrassed and was trying not to look at anyone. He cursed inwardly and rubbed the back of his neck "What happened to me? What was I about to do?" He asked, mad at himself. "I can come back later. It's not important," Steph said and made to leave but Mary stopped her. "You don't have to go anywhere, Steph. I am about to leave," she said and hurried out in embarrassment. Immediately she did, Steph's lips curled up into a smile as she faced her brother. "Big bro, what is going on?" She asked cheekily. Allen rubbed his neck and sat on his bed. He was still trying to figure out what had happened to

All of them stared at him, surprised to see a different person. Allen let out a deep breath and stood up. "I have gone through the first step of my plan and that is going to Josh's company. I've been able to convince someone important to join me."Josh drew his brows, wondering who he was referring to as the important person. "Who is that?""I will let you know when the time comes," he answered. "So what is your next plan?" Steph asked, worried about her brother and at the same time, glad he wasn't having so much anger that she thought would ruin him. "I will be visiting the safe very soon. I think my money is long over due there," he answered. "Are you crazy!" Steph and Maryjane chorused at the same time, with their eyes popped open. "Why would you plan to do that when you know the situation surrounding you?" Dr Thompson asked. "I won't be able to do this on my own. I will need all your help but you don't have to worry, no one would be in danger because this. I have a plan and

Allen looked intently but found nothing. He drew his brows and looked at the old man. "What do you want me to see there? There is nothing except water," he answered. "Look carefully."Allen strained his eyes, trying to see what he was talking about but there was nothing. Was the old man imagining something there? It could be possible because his sight most have gone bad, he thought."There is nothing there," He answered, confident about it.The old man clicked his tongue and gave him a light got on his shoulder. "That is what you think. It is because you allow your eyes are what you want it to see. Look deeper and you will find what I am showing you."Allen looked closely and it took a while before he saw something floating on the water. "What is that?" He asked. "That is something I put on the water. Don't worry, I will get it out," he answered and laughed. Allen wondered why he didn't notice t at first. The old man laughed to his heart content and faced him again. "You see, not

Allen drove down the road, heading for his villa. His first mission for the day was accomplished and that was getting Mr Benson to his side. Getting the others would be easy. He suddenly took a different turn, heading for the beach instead. "Why are you going to the beach?" Ultimate asked. "I need a time to myself. I have a lot going on and all I can think of right now is bringing the project Erubus society down. My anger is really overwhelming me and now, I am really worried," he answered and let out a deep breath. "Every one keeps telling me to calm down and not make wrong decisions because of my emotions. I think they are right. I need to calm down so I can handle this mission as calmly as I can.""That's a great step, Allen. Anger is a strong feeling of displeasure, hostility towards someone, usually with an urge to harm. It's good you decide to calm yourself down."Allen laughed at how ultimate read out the meaning of anger to him. He focused his attention on the road until he
