“Alright.” Nicholas said as they walked in. “You love the place yeah?”“I do Mr Baldwin.” Raphael said nodding enthusiastically. “Mr Nicholas.” Nicholas corrected.“I’ll see you both out then myself.” He said turning to the lady.It seemed like she got the message because she bowed and left the office.Nicholas ushered them out and they walked the hallways heading down to the parking lot.“Can I see my parents’?” Ajax asked breaking the silence.Raphael and Nicholas turned to him. “What?”“I mean their office And labs?” Ajax clarified.“Oh, I would love to but it’s out of bound at the moment.” Nicholas responded with a sad face.Ajax rolled his eyes. “Like you are not the one making the rules.” Nicholas chuckled. “Sorry. You can’t get in there. Any little mistake could result in years of work being destroyed.”Ajax kept mute as they kept walking. He tried his best not to let his face show how much he loved the place. Grey’s labs was beautiful and it used to be his drea

Immediately, his panic seized and he calmed. He streamlined his body and pushed himself upwards. Using his hands to paddle through the water. It felt epic. He was swimming! He swam up, his head coming out of the water first. He took a deep breath of fresh air as his eyes pranced around looking for the devilish human that thought it was funny to see him drown.“I knew you could do it!” Raphael said. “Like they always say, all you need is just a push.” Raphael said patting his back.“Well, I’m pretty sure whoever said that did not mean it literally! Bro I could have died!” Ajax yelled at him.“But you didn’t.” Raphael said with a smirk. “Besides if things got too ugly I would have saved your ass.”Ajax glared at him for a while and swam out of the water. It seemed like people had seen him struggle in the water because they casted pity stares at him.He reached for his parents pendant on his neck. Lately he found comfort in holding it. He silently thanked his system for the help. If an
Billionaire leveling up Thanksgiving With Revelations
Dinner time had come and both Raphael and Ajax came down the stairs. Earlier, after his mom had left, Ajax asked him what his mother meant when she said infected. “She used to work at grey’s labs as a cleaner when I was younger. When the Ronald’s died-““Who are the Ronalds?” Ajax asked pretentiously. He knew they were his parents but he was fishing for information. He needed to know what Raphael thought about his parents.“Bro! I heard you ask Nicholas about your parents office, that meant they worked there. If your parents worked there, they should have told you stories about the wonders of the Ronalds.” Raphael said, enthusiasm and awe raw in his voice.“Well, not really.” Ajax responded.“So, what are the stories of the Ronalds?”“They brought systems to earth and died removing them. They thought they were doing the right thing, until they saw the harms systems could cause. They tried sending it back but died in the process.”Ajax knew all these, he wanted to know something he did
Billionaire leveling up INTERNSHIP AT GREYS LAB
Ajax and Raphael had returned to school to face their studies head on. Literally, because there was never an hour that went by that Ajax was not buried in his book. Well, except for when he has to eat, use the toilet or basic necessary things as such. Raphael had even teased him about it. Ajax seemed to be rubbing off on Raphael because Raphael seemed to also develop the same thing.Now it was Ajax’s turn to tease him about it.“Aww, is the ladies man buried in his book and not a ladies- ow” Ajax was yet to complete his statement when Raphael threw a book at him.“Shut up.” Raphael shut his book and stood up. He threw some slides on and headed to his coat rack. It was December, which meant winter the weather would be cold outside.It was also a sign that he was about to leave the room.“Aww, is he sad that gloomy Ajax is rubbing off on him?” Ajax teased further wiggling an eyebrow.Raphael stepped out with a scowl on his face, banging the door dramatically after him. It made Ajax fall

She smiled at him and left, her hair billowing in the cold wind.He stood frozen in his spot for a while as he stared and watched her disappear from sight. She, Elena Gomez. No, Her, Elena Thorne just kissed him.He felt a surge of joy explode in him. He felt incredible like he could do anything. He felt like her could fly to the sun and back. The whole energy was bubbling in him and just when he wanted to scream in happiness, a hand pulled him to the exact dark place he had in mind to hide away from Elena.His head phones fell out of his head, landing in the exact spot he was standing. Just then, a cold sharp object pierced his stomach sending a searing pain through his body.He bent in pain as his hands went straight to the knife.

HORROR. TRAUMATIZED
A weak smile graced his features as he walked through it.His eyes flipped open and he saw himself sprawled out across the floor with his hands still reaching out and holding Raphael by the chains.He felt pain in every muscle but slowly the pain began to subside. As it subsided, strength came in. When he was strong enough, he snapped the chains apart and they broke, freeing Raphael.Raphael looked at him with a mixture of worry, sadness and some thing along the lines of love. “Are you okay?” Raphael asked as he quickly freed himself from the chains and rushed up to Ajax.He cupped his face and wiped away something from his eyes.Ajax had no idea he was even tearing up. He lifted his hands to wipe his own tears. That was when he saw that he was crying tears.His eyes flickered to the reflection of himself in a mirror not so far away. He gasped as he saw the trail of blood that ran from his eyes, down to his cheeks. His ears too had the trail of blood. His nose and mouth were not left o

ANOTHER MORNING IN CHAINS
THE following morning, Ajax woke up to an empty bed. He opened his eyes and the clock hanging just in front of him showed that it was noon.“Okay.” He murmured. “I think something is definitely wrong. How does one sleep till twelve in the afternoon.” He could hear the sound of water rushing from a door situated on the left side of the wall. He figured that it was the bathroom and that Elena was probably having her bath.He tried sitting up and that was when he noticed that he was tied down. He frowned but then the frown was replaced with a knowing smile. “Elena.” He called. “Are you trying to molest me?”There was no reply. He chuc kled and threw his head back on the bed as he sat waiting for her to come.About three minutes had gone by.“Who pays the water bill for this place?” Ajax wondered out loud. “You use a really lot of water.”Five minutes had gone by by and he frowned. That was odd. Elena never took that long to bath. He listened carefully and that was when he heard it. The s

A STEAMY NIGHT
Raphael and Elena huddled around him quickly. “Oh my God.” The two off them chorused repeating his words.“What are you going to do?” Elena asked looking up at him.“I have no clue.” Ajax answered, his heart racing. The call ended.“Give me that.” Raphael said grabbing it from Ajax’s hands. He turned it off and placed it in his pocket. “There.” He said smiling. “Problem solved.”***Nicholas had been calling Ajax all day. His workers back at Grey’s labs had been able to created more strips following Ajax’s parents experiment and methods.They had brought wears for safety and protection in preparation for the battle/ fight.Nicholas also got tiny tracking devices to fix on any of the people so that they could track them back to their abode.***“The place is not bad.” Raphael said as soon as they got in. “Our place is better, but it’s better than the dorms in school.”Ajax could not agree more. It looked like Caroline’s apartment back when she was dating Nate.The sitting room. Two roo

RUBBING SHOULDERS WITH THE ENEMY
Ajax’s eyes scrutinized him. Now that was a lie. A big fat one. He was definitely going to keep it for himself. Now he was slowly beginning to see what Caroline was seeing.“That way, we live without fear of anything in and around our city.” Gregory added.“I would go with you on the day of the mission. I am doing this not just because I want my freedom for mainly for my love for Elena.” Ajax stated firmly. His eyes glanced at Elena who was sitting and watching them. The love and willingness to fight filled his eyes. “We stick together right?”Elena could not help the smile creeping up her face. She nodded at him. “Yes we do.”“This would be weird though.” Raphael said scratching his head. “Fighting against the people I have always loved and adored, But I am in too.”Gregory chuckled. “First of all, I really admire your willingness to join us. I really appreciate, but I am sorry you would not have to do that.”“What?” Raphael said frowning. His friends; Elena and Ajax had the sam

MEETING WITH GREGORY
First it was the Ray of sunlight that hit his eyes. It woke him up, but he did not open his eyes. He laid there for a while. Suddenly, a shadow crossed, shielding the sun away from his eyes.He slowly opened his eyes and met Elena’s brown ones.“Hey.” Ajax mumbled in his groggy night voice.“Good afternoon.” She greeted with a smile.He frowned. “Afternoon?”That was when he saw the red lipstick on her lips and her eyelashes coated in mascara with a wing liner. His eyebrows knitted deeper. She was convered in make up. Was it really not morning?He tried getting up, but Elena was on him keeping him down.“Yas.” She said as she sat up, giving him his personal space. “You have been sleeping till almost three o’clock in the afternoon.” Elena pointed out.He sat up and grabbed his watch from the drawer close to their bed. His eyes grew wide. “What? How!” He exclaimed in disbelief.“You must have been really stressed out these couple days. Have you even been sleeping?” Elena asked as she cl

ATTACK IN THE QUARTERS
She could not see the person doing it. The person blended with the darkness. She hurried towards Raphael. “Are you okay?” She whispered as she helped him up. She pulled him behind her as she enhanced her eye sight so that she could see clearly in the night.She could make out three figures. Two men and a woman. They were hiding at strategic positions.Raphael’s heart was racing erratically as he stood behind Elena. He could see barely nothing in this darkness.He glanced at Ajax. Ajax who was still dressed in his white shirt and corporate pants was crouched.Suddenly, Ajax flung his hands in the air and a figure fell to the floor, landing a little distance from Raphael. Raphael gasped in surprise.Ajax was very alert. He had no idea who their attackers were. These were one of those times he was happy that his girlfriend also had a system. She was a strong girl and could fend off these people on her own, but he could not help but still worry for her.His eyes turned to check up on

IN THE QUARTERS
“Damn bro.” Raphael said smiling and patting Ajax’s back in pride. “You are one smart ass.”Ajax threw him a smile. “Of course I am.”The two continued walking. In the dark lonely street.It was late and people had gone to bed. There was not a single soul in sight. The two young boys had fallen silent that was when they felt the cold bite of the chill wind.“Uh.. so what are.. where are we going?” Raphael said rubbing his hands against his body to create heat.“I have no idea man. I am just walking.” Ajax said turning to Raphael.The two tried to hold a serious expression but failed and ended up laughing hysterically.“Hold up.” Ajax said stopping. “Let me try Elena. Maybe she would lead us to where she is.”***Elena had gotten to the quarters, her eyes red and face covered with dried tears. She had walked all the way to the place with a heavy heart and tears spilling down her eyes till there was no tears left to cry.How did she get here? How did her sweet relationship with Ajax

THE ULTIMATE CHOICE
Elena got to the stairs and stopped. She looked back at Ajax. He was not making even the slightest move to even chase after her. It broke her heart to say the least. Was he actually choosing Nicholas and Caroline over her? Her eyes flickered to Caroline who stood at a corner. She glanced at Raphael. He shook his head at her with his expression torn between worry, disappointment, sadness and betrayal.She turned to Ajax, he still stood with shock. She could see the little pool of tears gathering in his eyes.Her heart was breaking. Was he actually not coming after her. Her vision began to get blurred as the tears that was in her eyes threatened to fall.She spun around and ran up the stairs into her room and shut the door behind her. Her breathing ragged she took in deep breaths to calm herself.Slowly the reality of everything that just happened began to dawn on her. Ajax had just chosen Caroline and Nicolas over her.She had just lost him. She had lost Ajax. Her lips parted in d

WHAT HAPPENED TO YOU?
Ajax, Caroline and Raphael turned around and saw Elena standing and watching them with a frown.Tension and silence descended amidst them, making the atmosphere thick. “Oh hi.” Caroline greeted with a cheerful smile, her voice light as a squeak.Suddenly, she felt a flurry of wind hit her as she saw a blur of white and then Elena was tackled into a hug.She gasped at the sudden movement. Was that how much he missed her? She could not help but smile at the duo. No, she did not feel any atom of jealousy. She had fully gotten over Ajax that she could not see him in such light anymore.As for Ajax, all he did was listen to Caroline tell the story of Elena when he heard the soft voice he had been craving to hear for days now.The sight of her felt like he had been in a dark room for a really long and was finally let out to see the light.Although his girl had frown lines on her head with a scowl and eye bags that showed that she had not been sleeping and how stressed she had been, yet she
