When Nassor and Murphy came back into the room only to see this disappointed look on the face of the others, they were curious to know what the issue was so the needful question was let out. “Hey can somebody tell us what is going on?” Murphy asked as he rolled his eyes, looking out for the person who would speak in regards to his query. Nobody was willing to talk, so Nassor squatted close to Stan who was sitting at the entrance of the room, “Bro, talk to me, why are you all like this?” Stan looked into Nassor’s eyes and still could not tell him the cause of their problem, so he stood from the ground, and walked up to Guzman again, handing over the cell phone which he found. “Here, make the call again.” He sounded so authoritative that Guzman could not say no, he slowly took the phone and dialed in Sam’s number again. Since it was a different number, Sam had to pick because he didn’t know who it was, he was still avoiding any call from Guzman so he would not feel more guilty and
Callum led the aliens back to the place where he had parted with Stan and the others, but on getting there they were already gone. “What did you bring us here for? There is no one here.” A Shirren asked in anger as he was about to descend on Callum because he thought he was leading them astray so as to help their target escape. “They were here, I swear.” “But it is obvious to us that nobody is here. I doubt they were ever here. Are you joking with us?” Another threatened as it forged a sword out of his arm ready to kill Callum with it. “Where are they up to?” “I don’t know. This was where I left them after the explosion.” “This human is not useful to us, let’s just do away with him.” One of the Shirrens whispered to their leader. But he was loud enough that Callum overheard the suggestion and was frightened. He knew exactly what would happen to him if he didn't speak up. “Please don’t kill me, I will help you get Stan.” “You already tried and it’s useless keeping you alive.”
As Stan Gibson and his friends got to Southgate by means of a car, they saw the helicopter which Sam had sent to pick them up also arriving so there was not a single minute wasted. Even though some aliens had sighted their car moving at great speed and had pursued them, there was no way they could stop them. Getting on the helicopter, the aliens tried shooting them down like always but the pilot was quite an expert and knew how to handle such a situation. Also the team of soldiers on board also shot back at the aliens making it very difficult for them to shoot down the helicopter and soon they were out of that entire area. Free from the great danger which the city of Cincinnati put them in. Getting to Charleston, Guzman was instantly taken to the medical quarter in the camp so that he would be properly attended to, while Sam Bill was very desperate to speak to Stan Gibson but Stan as usual did not want to talk to him because he still had some grudges against the elites. Outside the
They came to meet up with Murphy and Iva first. Murphy had to second check that the person with Stan and Elena was truly Lisa’s brother, so he took a look at the picture again before saying. “Stan, you found him.” “No, he found us.” Stan rephrased. “Wait, how did you get that picture?” Bryce asked Murphy the moment he realized that it was his picture and Lisa was the one who had that photo. “Your sister gave it to me….” Murphy was going to continue further than that. But Stan cuts him off so that he would ruin that plan of meeting Trisha and Nassor before they tell him that his sister is gone. “I told you we are friends of your sister. Come on, we still need to find the others.” Murphy and Iva were smart enough to understand what was happening so they cooperated with him. Elena still could not get how they understood one another so easily without stress and in a coded manner. “There are more of you?” Bryce asked because he was beginning to suspect something odd with the way Stan
Trisha and Nassor were with the President when Stan and the others joined them. They could not leave Jonathan's sight as there were soldiers everywhere around. “Finally,” Jonathan rejoiced as Stan walked in with Murphy, Iva and Elena. He was already getting tired of waiting for Stan. He still did not get how a low class without a chip would keep him, the President of the United States of America waiting. Stan did not even send the President’s word, he was concerned about Nassor and Trisha. “Glad you both are okay.” “We too,” Nassor replied. Now Jonathan saw that as a very arrogant thing to do, he began to lose it and was about to shout for him but then recalled that any action of such would jeopardize the reason he had come there. “Hey kid, am I invisible to you?” “Sorry, but are you again?” Stan pretended. His question to Jonathan made everyone in the room to be shocked, they could not believe that he would ask the president such a question. There was no one in the country tha
“Straight to business I see.” Jonathan read from the way he replied to him. “I took it upon myself to come here by myself just to speak with you so you would see how important what I am about to say is.” “Just get on with it,” Stan cuts in because whatever he says, he would not agree with it since he already has a clue. Besides the conversation they were having, his mind was not in it. He was thinking of a way to accomplish the new task which Adoth had assigned to him. “I want you to train the soldiers. Teach them how to kill these aliens and lead them to victory.” This was what Stan had been waiting for all these while and he instantly replied. “No. I am not going to let you use me.” “No one is trying to use you, I am only asking for your help. The United States needs your help. If you do this the country will forever be grateful to you and your name will go down in history forever.” “Well, I don’t care what you call it but my answer is still no and you can’t change it.” “Can I
Just as expected, Murphy did not really have an answer to the question which had been asked of him, so Stan was about to continue but Iva suddenly spoke up, answering his question. “All elites are not the same, some really care about the low class. The community where I come from, some low class were gifted with chips that made them feel among.” “I would not have you fool me with those lies.” Stan doubted her. “I have nothing to gain in fooling you. I heard that Trisha actually left the academy to warn you about the others who were out to hurt you. Did you ever ask yourself why she did what she did? That is because there are actually some of us out there that care and watch the back of the low class.” With the point she just made, Stan had every reason to believe what she was saying about some elites being different. Also the few days he had been with them he could tell that it was actually the influence and training given to the young elites by the elders that made them the wake t
By the time Nassor said this, Stan recalled and then knew that what he had thought of was not going to work. So he did not know what to say again. It appeared he had run out of options, which would force him into going with the President to the White House to find their friend. Elena was still listening to their conversation, hearing something pertaining to tracking someone, she realized that she could help because that was her specialty. So she asked, “What are we tracking?” They all turned to her at this point, Murphy was the first to figure out the reason why she had made that statement, thus he asked back. “You track?” “Kind of,” she gave them hope while looking at them one after another to spot their reaction. After her response, Stan looked at Nassor to see if he could recall anything as to whether Ling said it was impossible to track the device or himself. “I think this would work.” Nassor answered after noticing the question which Stan’s look was asking. So Stan drew n
