Stan Gibson and Ling Tingzhe were sitting beside the bed where Trisha Graham was lying, they had finished administering treatment to her wounds in the best way they could and she was now sleeping as they waited for her to wake up. They were quite confident that she would because she was now breathing in the normal way which anyone sleeping would.In the course of waiting for her to wake up, Adoth then chose to give Stan the reports of his last task which was also his first legal task, reasoning being that he had to fight against the things that he is to protect earth against. [XP gained.]As he heard the report from Adoth, he expected to hear more, yet none was coming so he had to ask questions to why but he could not do that in the presence of Ling since he was yet to know about the system, so he excused himself from the room, going down stairs where he would freely interact with Adoth with being interrupted by Ling due to curiosity of him speaking to himself.“Adoth, why am I not g
Running was no longer in the mind of Stan else he would have left even they arrived so his supposed movement was not going to be towards to running from them, therefore he decided to act by the command of Sullivan by maintaining his position close to Trisha as he waited to see what their next action would be even though the looks on their faces could already reveal a bit about their next action. “Bond him.” Sullivan said to Oscar. Just as Oscar was approaching Stan to carry out the instruction he was given, Ling Tingzhe came up in front of Stan and said to Sullivan. “Master, please, this is not necessary.”“Will you move aside?!” Sullivan scolded him because his standing in front of Stan caused Oscar to stop.“Ling, you know the consequences of what you are about to do.” Atkinson reminded him as the anger in their faces was waxed high due to what they were seeing and how Ling had turned out to be in favor of Stan instead of the mission which they had left the school for.Ling was st
It was noon when they arrived at the Elite academy again. Entering through the gate of the academy so many students were awaiting their arrival. They had already received Callum Jones earlier in the day when he returned with the corpse of Rudo Walid.Callum Jones had already told them the lie which they were forced to believe. So they all had conceived the same belief and were angrily waiting for Sullivan and the rest of the crew that were sent out to bring back Stan so they would deal with him for killing Rudo or causing his death as the case may be.Just as they were entering the vicinity of the school, a group dragged Stan from the custody of the Sulliva, without asking any question or even responding to their salutation. Aside from being angry at Stan, they were also mad at Sullivan for letting a kid under his watch pass away. And now they would have to answer to the parents of Rudo, explaining to them in proper detail how their son died. Which no parent would take likely. With w
Guzman was not expecting the knock to be from a student and most of all one who had just returned from outside the school premises with Sullivan Nathan. He asked immediately, “What are you doing here Tingzhe? Aren’t you supposed to be resting?” “I can’t rest, sir.” With that response, Guzman quickly concluded that it was because he had lost a friend and probably was seeing his spirit, so he said, “It’s okay, you will get over it in a matter of time.” Ling understood where he was driving with those words and it was totally off from what he was thinking, so he had to state his reason for coming to this office, which was also the reason why he couldn't find himself sleeping. “Actually sir, it is not what you think,” saying that he got Guzman’s attention as he continued. “I really need to see Trisha.” That request gave Guzman a shock as he didn’t expect that from him. “What for?” Guzman asked him, curious to know his reason. “Ummm,” he stuttered. “If seeing her will make you rest, th
Minute passed after Stan said those words, yet there was no response from Adoth and that made him feel very devastated that he saw himself as a failure once again. He was beginning to see himself from a different perspective after getting to know Adoth, the hope he lost was restored by Adoth but now all hopes were lost, and this time he did not only fail himself according to his view, he also saw it as though he failed the entire human race because a task was give given to him.Tears rolled down his cheek as he prepared his heart towards death as he knew that nothing could be done to stop the council from passing negative judgment upon him. He began to think of the afterlife and how he would get to his parents once again.[It is not over yet. Get some rest.] Adoth finally said something to him after he was far into his thoughts, waiting for the morning to come for them the council to do that which they had always longed for.Well, the response came late, it was at a very wrong time a
Few minutes into the hearing, after Sullivan Nathan and two others that went outside the school with him had finished speaking based on what they knew, claiming that Stan was the one that killed Rudo. The judges of the case, which included Preston Osborne, Guzman Ronald and one other leader in the academy had to put their heads together as they deliberated on what their judgment would be, there was a voice from the audience.“I have something to say.” The voice was loud and could be traced to a direction, so all eyes turned to the direction which the voice had come from so as to see who was about to disrupt the process.Lo, it was Trisha who had said those words, she stood to her feet so that they would all see her as she stepped forward while all eyes were still fixed on her.“What does she think she is doing?” Atkinson whispered to Sullivan. “Sir, is this allowed here?” Sullivan asked his superiors who were about to pass judgment before the interruption.“Trisha, aren’t you suppos
Stan Gibson was left in the hall while a lot of people exit to observe the break which was given as Sullivan led a crew with the leaders to investigate the corpse and confirm whether truly Rudo’s chip was harvested and when it was harvested.Ling and Trisha did not leave the hall as they were sure according to what they saw that Rudo was not harvested of his chip, so Sullivan’s claim was bound to be proved false. The both of them then drew close to the desk where Stan was sitting and guarded by two mighty men.As they came close to him, he was now the one to speak first as he had seen from their earlier actions that they really meant well for him and had tried all their best to make sure he did not face a death sentence. “Thank you.” that was all he could say at the moment.“We’ll make sure death is not pronounced on you.” Ling promised him as he was ready to do the unlawful if things went the other way round.“You have done your best and I really appreciate it but there is no way yo
With everyone running up and down to see what had caused the explosion, Stan was left in the court still in chains. The judges who were also the heads of the academy had to put the school as their number one priority as they had a lot of young students to account for.Meanwhile, Trisha looked at Ling with a strange eye because of the words which he had said earlier about doing the unlawful thing just to make sure Stan was not killed. So the explosion seemed to be what he had planned.As lIng noticed the way Trisha looked at him, he quickly shakes his head telling her that whatever happened was not his doing. Nevertheless, it was to his advantage, so he went towards Stan who had been abandoned in the desk and Trisha had no option than to follow him even though she still thinks the explosion was all his doing.“Tell me you are not responsible for this?” Stan asked Ling because he also heard when Ling said he had a plan to ensure he does not face death.“No.” Ling answered as he broke th
