"What do you mean that you have another ability and none of us knew anything about that? Why have you been holding out on us Samuel?" Lucille asked at the realization thatthe boy who was originally in her team during the joint training was actually concealing such important information.
"Why haven't you used it since we've been training together? Even when we went against Adam, that would have been a good time to use it and maybe it could have prevented what happened to me from ever happening in the first place. Or against Arc Agents Daniel and Michael, why didn't use it with them huh?" "I don't know, I just never got to use it because with Adam the chance just never came because of your power acting out and using this power of mine before then wouldn't have even stopped that accident from happening in the first place, causing everyone to go mad. As for our training with the Arc Agents, this other ability of mine isn't as powerful or delivers as mAngel and the others watched as her hands got encased piece by piece with the former body of the stun gun and as the blue energy was running all over it."Wow! This is so cool" Angel exclaimed gleefully, moving her hands, looking at the palms and changing to the back hands while following the energy as it moved on. The energy was shaped like a single snake on each IMPACT GLOVE, slivering all around the metallic casing and going from her wrist to her finger tips."How does it feel?" Nathaniel asked, being intrigued by what he was seeing because the signal he was reading off of the gloves were unique and exciting and compared to that the only other signal that had excited him like that and at the same time terrified him were the signals coming from the antigravity engines in the stealth drones."I can even move my fingers without a hitch. It's like wearing a normal pair of gloves except the inside is a little bit warm and more comforting. N
*MURMUR* Gathered in a particular conference hall were dozens of men and women, all of different ages, body build and statures. Notably, they were all with hunter riffles and shotguns which felt natural being attached or held somewhere on their body with some even going as far as using their's to support the weight of their upper body as the slouched on their seats, They were all seated together as standing right in front of them and on a podium was an older looking gentleman in what appears to be his early fifty's and this man was currently in the process of making an address to all of them but from the looks on his face, he wasn't getting the feedback he had intended when he decided to call for this meeting as he rubbed his eyes with only three finger of one of his hands, denoting fatigue on his part. Outside the building which this hall was present and only had space for this hall, the text HUNTER'S GUILD CONFERENCE HALL was predominant
"The time they send the fund isn't the problem and it hasn't changed. However, what has changed is when the animals migrate. I know that you've all been going into the hunting zones so you all must have been noticing that the animal movement patterns has become drastically inconsistent nowadays and I got adviced that the animals are very likely to start migration way sooner than expected, which is why the funds won't come before that happens" "Really? I won't lie, I have been noticing some strange patterns lately and the animal migration is what really marks the beginning of the festival so arrangements would be a lot different since it's happening a lot sooner" Michelle said, meanwhile, Kevin had already gone back to his seat. "But instead of going straight with your plan why don't we just ask the government to send the fund a lot sooner to match with when we're setting the new date for the festival? That sounds like a better option rather than drastic
The meeting went on for a while more before everyone left the building and either went to their various places of work which were only those who still had one and needed it to survive or where they've decided to spend their leisure time for the guild members who were retired. It was just a couple of minutes since this particular Saturday afternoon started and those at a certain bar as well as other leisure establishments were tuning their television sets to the highly anticipated broadcast of trial currently taking place inside the Metro City's High court. This particular bar was the one inside the apartment building where most of the Hunters guild members lived and although other people from different buildings and streets could come in to spend their time and were even presently inside and getting a few drinks too, those more prone to patronize and are seen to be more now were the tenants of this building. Also, the Hunter's guild conference building
*STATIC* As the "STANDBY..." message remained on the middle and the sound of static buzzing from the television set became the center of attention of everyone who had been watching the trail from wherever they are, Paul and Steve remained sat, leaned forward and staring with their foreheads scrunched denoting scepticism while their minds were perplexed as to what had just happened. The two men of varying ages sat in silence for a couple of seconds with each trying to first come to an understanding of what just happened on their own before they even attempt at asking the other for their input. Because the silence had gone on for too long, even though it had only been seconds, Paul decided he would just get it over with and because Steve was the one who had been watching the trail since it started and he had just joined him when this happened, maybe the younger man would have a better clue than he who obviously didn't. "What in the world just happened?"
"""WHAT!!?""" Everyone everywhere which this broadcast was being watched by had a moment of unanimous exclamation as they all couldn't believe what they just heard with their own ears. "The truth about the Pyrex 9 virus? What the hell does that mean?" Paul mumbled, paying close attention so he doesn't miss anything being said. The masked individual continued "About two decades ago the president of the GHA, Gabriel Beldior Valestein, who is indeed a very terrifying man, stumbled upon a one of a kind gemstone, a boy who so happened to possess inhumanly abilities and that knowledge was shared only with those in power with those big names including your nation's former presidents, the military general directly under him as well as the rulers of your Three Kingdoms. Like all power hungry maniacs who aren't satisfied with the stolen resources your ancestors gave to them they still sought for a way to make more of this gemstone but tried to keep everything under wra
The power to the television, fan and all the lightbulbs went out and they were left to the light source coming in through the windows. Same windows which the murmurs from the bar was currently sipping through as they reacted to the power being out too. "Weird! The power has never been out before. You paid the light bill like you're supposed to right Pa?" Steve asked dropping the remote on the armrest again while attempting to stand up. "Of course I did. Listen to Kevin and the rest, you can tell that our apartment isn't the only place without power. Must be a block wide thing" said Paul, getting up too and walking over to the window. "Or maybe the entire district" After looking out to a digital billboard all the way at the neighboring block and seeing that it was off too Paul concluded. "Damn! If that's the case then what'd you think could have caused it!" "I don't know, maybe somethings wrong at the pla— Huh? What's
With the sound of two gun shots fired and their pitches that made it clear that they were both from two different guns the Upriser Lieutenant and the regular Upriser who had had Michelle pinned down were both hit and pushed backwards, both slamming a portion of their bodies on the van which they came here with. Surprised at what just happened but also happy and being able to see the opportunity that had just presented itself the Hunters who were in the bar and had first rushed but were forced to stop by the Upriser Lieutenant until this happened still had a little momentum in them which they instantly added more to and picked up their pace, dashing outside the bar and standing in an improvised support formation behind the others, Michelle and Kevin who had gone down and was helping her up. "Wait!" Laying on the ground and managing to rest his body on the tire of the van as he applied pressure on his shoulder which was where the bullet had hit, a few centimete
