Moment of truth. Hehe
“Blessing…” The word hung in his mouth as he arched her frame. She’s changed. A lot.The Blessing he knew did not always have this confident computer. The fierce fire in her eyes as she stared at him. The people who Eeew it’s her, their body posture signifying that they were under her lead. Or at least, allowing her to take the lead on this.He frowned. It was confusing. This was the same girl who he’d been looking for. The same one who vanished from his sight since that night. He blinked, shaking his head in disbelief. As he did that, his hisok got blurry. Another blink cleared the issue. But now, the new issue was that Blessing was gone.“Huh?” He gasped out.He looked around quickly seeking out for where she might have been. He was at the Bureau and already he knew what was possible in the Academy.People could vanish just like that. And later many miles aaah from the original spot. Maybe Blessing had a system too.“H-Helen?” He gasped out as he realized the event occurring beyond
He blinked. The scene did not change. It remained the same here. And that brought an ounce of relief to him. When he shut his eyes in that momentary activity , he had the half mind that the scene would vanish again. It had happened like this plenty of times. There was definitely nothing to guarantee that the same thing wouldn’t happen again? Still, that did not occur. It made him sigh in relief. His head was still in the bed, the pillow precisely. Although he wonders why his head could not move. He grimaced, feeling a little ache in his neck as it resonated with him. With curiosity driving him, he pushed his arms up. They hurt like hell. Heavy punches searing through them. Hot like needles put in the flame and then placed against his sun. The wicked heat and the pain it caused him. “Hmph.” He heaved out. His eyes widened as the relaxation struck him. There was a cast on his neck. It held him up. He must have broken. His neck, did he? He grimaced agan, recalling the last time he
Lekan paused. “I don’t understand.” He replied to Officer Jonas. Then the doctor took over. Upon hearing her voice, he was extremely grateful. He winced, shutting his eye. Taking a shaky breath, he could hear the words she lashed at them. She was forced to reckon with. And now, the officers strutted out of the ward with her. At least, he heaved, that would give him some air time. He frowned as he tracked the events. Was this the Officer Jonas that he met then? Certainly not. While this man looked really neat enough to pass off as the mobile patrol officer he saw that day, he was yet to place it. How was it possible that a mobile patrol officer would be here to carry out the act of receiving his testimony? Since when did he get that promotion to be a what? An inspector? It was fishy. In all, and he was not going to buy it. Even if the police patrol officer he saw that day got a promotion, it was highly unlikely for him to be here. There had to be someone who would have taken
Company. Family legacy. Ruin.All these words; were they not too big for that joy she attended to? The boy she brought back from the edges of death? It felt a little too much to consider that. The responsibility that groaned heavily on the back of the little boy.That was what he was to her. A boy who needed love and attention. Which unfortunately was not what he got.Dt Erebosa May sighed heavily. People who were starved from their family attention always tended to go into vices. They had an affinity with trouble. It was one of the problems of modern society. The modern society issue was that parents would get so guys. They would get so busy they did not keep checks and tabs on the lives of their kids. Then one day? The kids snap. And when they snap, the society has to bear the ruin for it. For the vices the kids have tk take upon would inevitably be visited upon the society. The society is suffering for the sins of some misguided parents.His parents just had to give him love, sh
“Hm” The soft wheezing of Frank matched the rhyme jor the car engine. They had been out all night. And finally, he could not be anymore grateful for the fact they were returning back home. It was such a long ride but he did not mind the distance it took. So far they’d get home. And then he’d settle for a hot bath.The chatter of his parents in the front seat did not bother him. He was far from home for him to notice. Their vehicle hummed along the path, the deserted road as they went home. Their speed trailed high enough such that if there was a traffic police on the road here, they’d pull them over.Still, all was well that went well. This was what he liked to think. Unfortunately, today was not one of those days.With soft breaths, his eyelids blinked, they threatened to shut out his vision. His subconscious fought hard against that. He had to stay awake. He loved to stay awake. Since he’d grown up, he had taken it upon himself to ensure that his parents were alright. It did not mat
“Ack!” Frank gasped as his eyes flipped open.He was back in the present. And about him, state of the art medical equipment continued to beep every now and then.He exhaled. His chest felt the painful wheeze, making him squeeze his face in a grimace. It was painful.But that did not bother him. What mattered was one question. Where was here?He closed his eyes now. The pain in his head spread out all over. Most likely a migraine. He knew better than to raise his head just like that. He felt an itch in his right arm but since he could not move, he ignored it. His lips twitched as they tried to mitigate his whimpering over the pains.He exhaled once more. He had a flashback to the first day he used his system.The first day he realized that he had been cursed. And that guess was it from heaven. He came down here with the hopes he would find a way to remove it. Unfortunately for him; Things did not go the way he hoped.Now, he has been dragged into a fight. Although he was mostly curiou
“Tch!” Frank sighed.Life was unfair to Frank. Just when he thought he had everything going for him, he had his first two subjects killed while he struggled with sleep in the back. While he woke to the aftermath. Perhaps, if the blood of his parents did not splatter to his face, he would have continued to sleep. Now, he was only trying to understand how tog place himself in this new world he found. And then life struck again. He lost his hand. Almost as if a bad luck streak was following him, so far.He shut his eyes, shut out the pain. He was numb to the tears that rolled down his face. He felt nothing. But his body still grieved. He felt the initial pinches of aches down his arm. Where his hand ought to be. But after that, it was no more.He felt nothing. Life was obviously not designed for people like him to enjoy. It was designed in the way that he would only get hurt no matter what he did.And even if he did not get hurt, he would end up getting others hurt. And to be honest, Fr
“And that, my friend, is how you do it!” A voice sounded just outside the door of the ward. It spoked the curiosity of Lekan as he heard it.His eyes widened in a flash, his instaibfts kicking out. Suddenly, cold sweat broke out on his skin as a sense of dread overlapped him.But before he could make a move…Light flashed. KA-BOOOOOOOOMMMM!The resulting force of the explosion rammed against him. It flung him for the bed wuth sudden mommegtim, slamming his mass against the IV stand and the wall. He gasped for breath, the bed alps dashing into the air.“Ah!” Lekan exhaled.His chest rose heavily as he gasped for breath. His eyes widening, Just ahead of him, smoke cleared. The shattered entrance to the ward door revealing some figures standing and staring at him. Each of them had a smile.And amongst the lot of them, only two of them appeared to be familiar.Was that the Whip?And that girl? The girl who kissed him the last time they saw each other. The last time they fought.the new f
