Ethan's point of view...

My intuition never failed me, I had a deep power that make me guess if something was about to happen, it was the main reason that I wanted to come and confirm that everything was fine here with these Alien's rooms.

But to my surprise, like always I was correct in guessing something was wrong.

The containers stood like sentinels, their ethereal glow casting a mesmerizing light before me. I gazed at them in awe, my heart pounding with a mix of anticipation and exhilaration.

Lost in the moment, as I moved closer to get a better look, my footsteps barely making a sound against the smooth floor, I heard a groaning sound which almost jolted me.

But in my haste and eagerness, I misjudged my surroundings and bumped into one of the containers behind me. It was the same container that contains the body of that huge monster-like structure, Fellonodia, still staring at me with his big round eye in the middle of its body.

I turned around and peered at it, but soon I heard

As they helped me back onto the spacecraft, I couldn't help but notice a change in their expressions. There was a mix of relief and curiosity in their eyes as if something significant had transpired in my absence. But when I stepped out of the shifting elevator, my mind smacked in an instant.My teammates were standing on either side giving leaving the way, which gave me a feeling of giving a tribute to someone who had just saved a planet.

    Ethan's point of view...Every step we took with this system, was like a milestone to our journey, making us near to the final war. All these days, we were busy with the training and all the nights I was drowning in the anticipation of that day when I will be be faced with those crappie things that destroyed my world.Though I am not crippled anymore, though I got attention vastly more than my expectations, our planet is our home. The place where we lived for years, the place we were born.

    Ethan's point of view...As we reflect on our time in the robotics training center, all of us were filled with admiration for the brilliant minds and engineers who crafted these incredible machines. The experience instilled in us a profound sense of wonder and gratitude for the opportunities we had as Zodiac Warriors. We all were so eager to indulge in the extraordinary usage of those robots. But soon that admiration turned into a suspicious feeling that bloomed in me.I was a curious man, to begin with, and due to my curiosity, my attention was grabbed by the cabin that lay on one of the corners of the training center. I glared back to ask about it, but Captain Ven and his crew were so busy explaining things to the other team members.Still, my previous experience forced me to ask for his permission before checking the last room out. I strolled to him and asked sincerely."Captain Ven, can I check that as well? What is in that?" I don't know if he heard me, but he just tilted his

    Ethan's point of view...I always try to learn from my mistakes and end up doing them again.I can't help it, because being curious is one of the worst human nature that I have abundantly.But this time, I felt so bad. Deep down inside me, I was cursing myself to do this again.Closing my eyes in guilt, I turned around slowly, my head hung in embarrassment to find Captain Ven standing tall there with a mixture of concern and fury in the style he was looking at me. Despite being a robot, his skin was made up of silicon which helps him exhibit all the emotions that a human can display. It was the first time that I ever experienced a different expression other than those blunt emotions he always show us. Look at me guys, even in this kind of situation, I can't help but feel amazed by this unique creation. "I see you care nothing about my warnings" He grunted, his serious grunt dragged me out of the maze I was in. "I warned you to stay out of this, didn't I?" his voice was like a roa

  • Apocalypse-The Alien War   Chapter 16 A Chance

    Ethan's point of view...Whenever I see these robots the flashes of that gigantic creature who smashed the earth swirl in my mind.I still remember how easily they swiped all those huge buildings and it was like killing an ant with just a pat. Tears swirl into my eyes as I think about that day.But that makes me wonder about their progress, exactly how much have they formulated, that they were able to destroy the whole planet in just a few hours?I can't wait to kill them, to wipe them out as how they did to us."It's not too far, Ethan" I jerked as I heard a voice and turned around at an instant to see who that was. "We will meet soon" No one...!No one at all.I was standing there alone. How could it be?Was that just my imagination?But it felt so real...!I confusingly gaped around but no one else was attentive to me. It was only me struggling with those weird illusions.But why me...?I smacked those thoughts out of my sanity as I don't think this could be real.Moving on, I i

    Ethan's point of view...Captain Ven strolled towards me and gave me the access card. After my intrusion, they changed the access system. Other than the crew and workers everyone needed an access card to enter the entrance gate.Hearing that I doubted of they might have changed the location of that incomplete model too.All my efforts will go in vain if that happens. With a hesitant mind, we strolled toward the elevator, all of my team entered it but I felt someone dragging me out from it.The elevator door closed and all the others slid away except for me and the one who dragged me. I was sure it was Ava but my eyebrows creased in confusion to find Aron standing before me."Aron, what's wrong?" I asked him immediately, and he was silent for some time then reluctantly spoke out."About... what...you...said...earlier..." he hung his head and was forcing himself to speak out. He was never so talkative about anything before.His behavior and his reticence were so different to guess.I to

    Ethan's point of view...I steeled my nerves, feeling a mix of suspicion and excitement as I raised my hand to replicate the scratch on the silicon layer over the metallic frame on the other side of that model. I know it was wrong but my instinct keep forcing me to do it just to clarify this one thing that had been clinging behind my brain. I promised myself that I will never go against the system again.However, just as I was about to proceed, a distant alarm blared throughout the starship, jolting me out of my trance.Shit...!Did they put alarms on this?I was alarmed at the thought that I will be caught again.But soon I realized that I didn't even touch it yet...!Then what might have happened...!Panic washed over me as I acknowledged that my teammates might be in danger.

    Chapter 46 The end...!

    Author's point of view...After talking with Captain Van, Ethan's determination to face the ultimate mission alone had reached its peak. He knew the risk, the danger, the potential cost—and he was ready to pay it. Standing before Captain Van, he made his request, a plea for secrecy, for the burden to be his alone. Van hesitated, torn between his loyalty to Ethan and his duty to the rest of the team, but Ethan's conviction was undeniable. With a heavy heart, Van finally agreed. They shared a silent understanding: this was the last stand, and it could not be in vain. Together, they began to plan. Van used his vast knowledge of alien technology, remnants of the advancements that had rebuilt him, to craft a strategy that played to their strengths. Ethan, relentless in his preparations, perfected every detail, ensuring there was no room for error. They allied with the few good aliens who had rebelled against the Wicked, knowing that this would be the key to their success. These allies

    Chapter 45 There is no turning back...!

    Author's point of view... He was smiling...! I blinked several times as I felt that as my imagination. How could a robot smile? That smile wasn't something that come from happiness, of course. It was painful and I can easily feel it. "Then...? What happened?" I asked looking blankly at him. He continued but that strange thing, his smile, had faded. "I wanted to end it all. But I was incompetent." he hung his head and I hesitatingly patted his strong metallic shoulder. Though it only hurt me...! He continued. "I devised a plan and attacked every single thing that I could find and gathered every weapon they have, including their bodies. Every explosive I could rig. Though I was not any professional in making explosives, those things that I collected were already dangerous and explosive. With them in hand, I went into their territory, knowing it was a suicide mission. I didn’t care. All I wanted was to make them feel even a fraction of the pain I was drowning in. I want to de

    Chapter 44 Van was a human too...!

    Author's point of view... As I sat there, the room felt heavier, the air around me thick with the remnants of whatever I heard just now. My existence itself was already a mystery, and to add to that, I had just met my future self; I talked to him head-on through a virtual image. Everything was just so astonishing to take in. His words...I mean, the future Ethan's words were strangely heavy for my head to take in entirely. The pain he endured was something that I can only dread in my nightmares. I questioned my ability to survive if I had to go through those hardships. But when I gave it some thought, I did get it through, didn't I? At times, I would feel proud of myself, and then fear would take over. I hadn’t fully processed the enormity of what he’d said when the chamber door suddenly opened, jolting me back to the present. Captain Van entered his mechanical steps echoing softly through the chamber. Though I knew who entered, I was a bit startled. He had his unreadable r

    Chapter 43 Keep going...!

    Ethan's point of view... As I sat there, the weight of the future pressing down on me, the chamber room seemed to grow colder. My heart pounded in my chest as I stared at the holographic figure before me—my future self, a shadow of the man I was now, but with a story that chilled me to the bone. “So, what happened next?” I asked, my voice barely a whisper. I wasn’t sure I wanted to know, but I had to. There was no turning back now. "You will get to know it soon, but you need to promise me that you won't startle" My head stirred, don't startle...! What on earth is he going to tell me about?? I leaned closer, nodding my head in agreement. Ethan’s... Uh damn...! It's so annoying to call him that. How about Future Ethan?? Yes. That's better. Future Ethan's expression softened, his eyes reflecting a mixture of sorrow and pride. He began, “Ethan, the world beyond what you can imagine… it’s not just a place, it’s a crucible. It’s where I was reborn, in more ways than one.” He pau

    Chapter 42 Meeting myself...!

    Ethan's point of view... Reaching the starship, I was dying to get my answers but we were all held back by the chamber room to take a rest. Captain Ven had sent someone over with his orders that we needed to heal our bodies first. Three days completely in the chamber made me feel sick to hell. But I felt so energetic as I stepped out. My teammates were in the chambers for two days only as they were pretty much in good shape. As I stepped out, I saw I was alone in the chamber room. Everyone was already at the training hall. I missed everything here. Yeah...! Not the harsh training of course.As I was about to move on to the door, a beam of light flashed in the middle of the chamber room with a loud buzzing sound. And soon a colorful figure projected in the beam of light.I stood frozen, staring at the virtual projection but what astonished me most was the fact that it was my own self. It's me but a bit different.Agent C...!!******Author's point of view...The figure before h

    Chapter 41 Everything back to normal...

    Ethan's point of view... When I saw with my vision still blurry, my teammates's hesitant gazes revealed a mix of awe and apprehension. I still couldn't figure out what just happened to me. I knew I had to explain, to assure them that I was still the person they knew. With that confusion swirling in my mind, and a strange pain and dullness engulfing me, I closed my eyes uncontrollably.I found myself falling from a long height and with a sudden jolt, I opened my eyes again. "Freaking Hell," I gasped the atmosphere around me was freaking hot. The pain in my chest intensified and felt all-consuming, but vanished in the seconds it took for me to blink my eyes open. I was on my back and staring up at an unfamiliar afternoon sky with clouds the color of late autumn leaves.I couldn't comprehend where I was because my mind seemed to be numb for a few minutes. "It feels like I just died," I mumbled.Where am I? I couldn't see my teammates around me. As soon as I got my senses back, I

    Chapter 40 Monster...!

    Ethan's point of view. It was all going on like a movie flashing in front of me. A movie that I never want to see though. Apocalypse...! It was just looking like the time which I experienced on earth. Destruction and destruction everywhere. My mind almost fused and I stood unable to move for a while. But suddenly my transmitter jolted into life. I heard that voice again. "You are special," the voice echoed multiple times in my consciousness. "A new kind of energy resides within you, Ethan, grab the red crystal in your bare hands and you will know what it is" I was puzzled for some time until I saw those huge creatures making their way to us. My team was shattered, though not defeated, they were all tired to their last breath. If not for me, for them I had to push myself. I removed the glove and shoved my trembling hand inside the hidden pocket of my suit to grab that red stone. That's it...! I did feel a spark in my body. It was just like a high-voltage current passing thro

    Chapter 39 Attack again...

    Ethan's point of view... In that darkness, all my teammates were surrounded by huge spaceship lights. Though they were alert, not panicked. I was proud of them but a slight fear gripped my heart and I felt a bit insecure. The minutes passed in tense silence, broken only by the distant hum of alien ships approaching. Our hearts pounded in our chests as we waited for the inevitable confrontation. I moved forward hideously and Aron followed me. Then, the first sign of trouble came from the sensors. A faint blip on the screen indicated movement in the nearby foliage. Reaching my team, I connected with their minds. "Get ready, they're coming," I whispered to the team, my grip tightening on the weapon I took out, a makeshift plasma pistol we had salvaged from our earlier encounters. The tension in the air was noticeable as we braced ourselves for the battle ahead. We were outnumbered and outgunned, but we had the element of surprise on our side, and the determination to protect our ow

    Ethan's point of view..."We have to move, now!" I declared, urgency coloring my voice. We don't even have any idea about them, what kind of enemy are we going to face, or what their powers might be. "The aliens are here, and they're not here for a friendly chat," I added."Are we going to fight against them?" Daniel asked still feeling a little bit dizzy.We knew we needed a defensible position, and fast. And this might be a foolish act to stand against those powerful aliens without proper preparation. My team is strong but not enough to face an entire army of those vicious aliens."We can find a way to escape, once our mission is completed" I mumbled, "but if we can't...!" I was uncertain myself, how could I assure them? Nathan patted his hand on my shoulders, "Don't worry Captain, nobody is a coward in our team." he assured, "We are willing to use our, even life is not an exception if needed" It felt like I had a strong Mountain of support behind my back, my team.
