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
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. With a heavy heart, I abandoned my secret experiment and rushed back to join them, my mind was now consumed with concern for their safety."What happened?""Oh, shit...!" As I rushed back to the robotic trai
Ethan's point of view...The next day, we were all called to assemble in the main hall of the starship for an important briefing about the mission. It had been a long day the day before, my teammates were so worried about that fire accident in the robotics segment.Of course, why won't they, I shared my additional doubts with them to scratch their peace, but I had to smack that doubt out of them to let them free from those headaches.I told them that there was a repair in the control panel and the things we saw were all because of that and they simply believed me.I did it for good...!It was like a roller coaster and I wonder what it will be like today.The atmosphere was tense as we awaited further instructions about our next mission. Captain Ven strolled in and stood at the podium, his eyes scanning the room to check if we all are there before he began to address us. "Zodiac Warriors," he grunted and took out a remote control from the trolley beside him. "I have something very i
Author's point of view... As the heavy metal doors slide open with a soft hum, someone stepped into a mysterious and futuristic chamber that leaves everyone in awe. The room was dimly lit as if someone doesn't want to be in the light, casting long shadows across the polished silver walls. An ethereal glow emanated from the numerous hidden light sources, making the entire place feel like a scene from a sci-fi movie. "General...!" a mechanical voice echoed, greeting someone in a fearful tone.In the center of the room, there is a circular table, meticulously crafted from sleek, black glass that reflects the surrounding lights and technology. Sitting behind the table is a man whose face is covered with a metallic mask, seemingly ordinary yet enigmatically intriguing. His attire consists of a finely crafted metallic suit, with the emblem of a mysterious organization embedded on the lapel. Stellar Vanguard."So it is the time for you to visit me, huh, Ven?" The man retorted, he appears
Ethan's point of view...Secret mission...!It gave me a thrilling experience just by hearing it. Imagining a whole thriller movie before me where I am the only hero.I started guessing around if I am going to fight with some notorious aliens or going to attack some other planet.But soon my excitement came to rest as I received the details of the mission.I was still so excited when Captain Ven told me about the headquarters, but also my excitement turned into some kind of suspicion.I heard a voice that was so familiar but for sure it wasn't Captain Ven's.Then who...?When I asked, he instantly smacked my doubt making me even more suspicious about the person who talked unknowingly.But I couldn't sort it out, what can I do being on the spacecraft?I had to get along quietly.Now that I am here on this journey, I must focus on the task ahead instead.With a resolute nod, I accepted the mission and quickly turned on my heels, leaving the present signal and tuning to the one I got fro
