"That's what I would like to know as well" Words which came from and unknown source and a familiar voice at that but the blindfold I was trapped in had muffled all the sounds I heard so I couldn't make the match and the words themselves weren't that audible to me in the first place for me to be able to identify the tone
*grab*
I felt a hold being made on my body by my arms and I was forcefulxly pulled towards something and with that momentum acquired this force would later go to spin me then take a hold of my wrist with both their hands and I would be pulled again but this time my body would make contact by the side and mostly under my armpit with a harden but not so muscular structure then just would be lifted up and flung over that not so muscular but we'll toned structure
There would also be a kick made to
After everything was done and I was now safely on the floor on both knees and body hunched over with my forearms also resting on the floor which pillowed my head while I tried to catch my breathInside the blindfold mask I had my mouth open as I hyperventilated in a rhonchial manner with saliva dripping down to the blindfold at the mouth area. It was getting harder and harder to breathe"What was that? What just happened to me? What was it that attacked m__" I uttered under my breaths before realising that what was happening and that the person who had attacked me was still there with me and was most likely preparing for another attackWith that in mind I quickly got up as fast as I possibly could while moving into a defensive posture when before reaching my full standing height with my body being hunch
The first reaction I showed was squinting severely and scrunching my forehead as the blindfold made its way over my halfway closed relaxed eyelids and I could see properly again but because my eyes had adjusted to the darkness of the black coloured insides of the material for which the blindfold was made from for over thirty minutes the bright light emanating from the room I was inside almost felt like it was going to blind me but for a split secondThe light wasn't coming from bulbs on certain parts of the ceiling but from the ceiling itself. It was like the substance used to construct the ceiling or the material which the surface of the ceiling was coated with illuminates itself in the dark and because the room was indoors or at least was covered with no natural ventilation that natural light from outside could make its way through it was predisposed to darkness hence the purpose of the material
"I still stick my earlier suggestion of detaining this one rather than introducing him to IT" officer Victor said as he looked at me with an intense taste of disdain before alternating his sight to warden Max Faller when he finished his sentence"And you know what my answer will be anyway so don't insist, it isn't like you... The real you anyway" Warden Max Faller said as he took a couple steps forward*GULP*I took in a considerable amount of saliva through my throat which was quite audible in the room that we were just before I stood to normal height and posture"IT? What are you guys talking about?" I asked looking at Officer Victor more because he was closer to me and my body was positioned more in his direction than was in warden Max
The absurd question made me to step back a bit "What? Where is this one coming from? Now two want to know about me and how I grew up after a series of cryptic conversations? I thought that that was your job to find out while I keep quiet before anything I say gets used against me in court, the usual MO""Don't be so hardheaded and answer warden Faller's questions when he asks you whether in your best interest or not or else we will be having an entirely different discussion but with you behind bars at the Reverse Island" said officer Victor as a threat"..." I took a pause at the realisation of officer Victor's words taking a look at the both of them and especially at warden Max Faller whose smile although it didn't change still depicted his complete agreement to the ultimatum given by his partner
*PANT*"Slow down Little soldier, you should catch your breath while speaking or the current situation you're in will force you to pass out again very quickly" said Warden Max Faller*PANT*"*TSH* Current situation, what current situation are you talk about?" I said hunched over a bit while also feeling lightheaded "What's... going on... I can't catch my breath like I should be able to... what did you do to me" I kept on panting when my mouth started to fidget rapidly"He's asking us to prove Victor but we don't have any with us so what should we do?""You see what I said... No proof so... why are you accusing me... of being a spy and why can't I seem to breath... properly"
"You can't answer that can you and as long as it wasn't Samuels who made that then this image is definitely wrong because it shows what a miscalculating X-ray machine gave to___""But you can't dispute the other facts can you...Other facts which are you are able to do things which should be impossible for someone who grew up the way you did although you haven't told us that yet it can be concluded from the way you act that you are no spy because you can't remember of being one so someone must have done that, both changed your body for a mission and then wipe that mission from your mind until the time was right but the question is, when will that right time be? I might have a hard time sleeping if I continue to have that thought in my mind" said Warden Max Faller"Again and I will continue to keep telling you two that I have no idea what you are talking about an
"Phew! Thank God" I exhaled in relief "Alright, what's your idea Sir? I'll help in any way I can" I insisted"Well the idea goes like this..." He took his arms and folded them behind his back as he took a couple of steps while talking as he walked "Victor""Yes warden Faller?""You saw on two occasions how his body reacted on its own when he was presented into situations where his normal state couldn't save him but needed those experience and muscle memory which are locked inside of him to handle the situations we threw at him right?""Yes warden Faller but where are you going with this?" said officer Victor as he turned to look at warden Max and who had circled him and was now by his right side which was the opposite of where he was
"You, boy! Hurry up and get a move on will you...we're late already as it is so there's no need for any more stalling... Your test already took longer than expected and that couldn't be helped but this can so get to moving your feet" Said Officer Victor who had stepped to the side and was waiting for me to get a move on but I was hesitant about the whole situation which seemed too mysterious and everything that had already happened warned me against it so I restrained from making any more movements"Sorry Officer Victor but I'm afraid that I won't be making any more movements from this SPOT until you guys clear me up on what's going on here... Why is Lupri here? Has he always been behind that door that just opened up all this time listening in while I was trapped in here and was left to freeze and where does that door even lead to anyway? What's going on with every single one of you and where do you want me to follow you all
I just want to say a big THANK YOU to every single reader that was able to get this far. Thanks for picking up this story and continuing with it even when the writing wasn't as good at the beginning and when the plot was feeling flat because I wasn't in a good head space or had enough free time to write what I wanted. Thank you for helping me grow as an author and tell my story and get your thoughts on it through the comments. Thank you for following me to the end of this journey. It's been almost two years since I started and finally the story comes to an end (or does it?) If you noticed I was kind of making things up as I went along which is why there are a few plot holes and things I forgot I had written before that didn't tie in well with the continuity of the story. This is my first ever book so a few mistakes are to be expected but regardless I apologise for them. I wanted to use this medium to both declare my appreciation for you guys as well as to pas
I had called my handler to meet me by a nearby coffee shop and by the time I got there he was already seated, waiting for me. Normally I avoid contact with him because it's always him hounding me about something but this was the first time in a long time that I was the one doing the reaching out."Sorry to keep you waiting Nick" I shook his hand then sat down."No problem, so, what is the purpose of this unexpected meeting""I want you to tell me everything about the Arc Agents and what the GHA's real objective is" I didn't waste anytime to ask the real questions.Nick was shocked by the bluntness of my question then tried to deny everything I asked and said in that meeting, gaslighting me most of the time and so it ended up with me not getting any worthwhile information out of him. The meeting took place before I had to go for work so without getting anywhere we ended it and I went to work but I knew that my questions wouldn't stay with Nick but wo
"Please make it in time""If I do this then maybe it'll make up for the fact that all of this happened because I jumped back""Please make it in time"I was currently stuck in a hellish nightmare which was entirely guilt driven. Every action and consequences of said action replayed in my head, panicking, unable to find peace until I woke up with a *GASP*After forcefully waking up, I reached for something with my hand only for that to be the ceiling of someplace I couldn't recognize or knew how I got there. I would pant, trying to catch my breath when all of a sudden I felt a sharp pain in my chest.My teeth gritted and eyes squinting in pain, I reached for the source of this excruciating pain which was when I noticed the medical equipments I was hooked to and that I was on a hospital bed."This is familiar" I said internally after thinking of how it reminded me of waking up in a hospital as my host, the last time I jumped into the pas
Mirajh jumped off from the top of the drone and they walked up to the others and because Mirajh was there, Talon quickly relinquished his temporarily given authority in favour of hers."Mirajh and Malkome, you guys made it. So what's going on?" Talon asked."It's over, all our forces have been killed and from the looks of it, we are the only ones left so the question now should be, what should we do next?"Once she said that all their forces had been killed, there was a unanimous dropping of jaws and none of them expected that it could have gotten this bad. They had completely underestimated the Arc Agents and the trainees. The GHA weren't even able to send their Forces Units to assist but the trainees alone along with help from the Arc Agents were able to decimate their entire forces."What about General Icon, does any of you know his whereabouts? If we can verify his status then we might be able to come up with a plan" Talon asked but seeing the look on
Levy who was close by and saw when Akarli was taking aim jumped in front of Boyo, trying to shield him with her body while I was beside the both of them, noticing too late until the shot had been fired.Jeremiah who the shot pulled back to his senses and he saw who she was firing at, the care he had for his best friend even though he didn't want to admit it made him lose it and reflexively he fired multiple shots at Akarli too, killing her on the spot next to Icon.All of this would happen in an instant but for some reason, because I didn't want any of my friends to be shot so badly that I dont know what happened but just like when that strange phenomenon happened back at the court during our escape and I managed to find where Boyo was because of it, it happened all over again.Suddenly everything began to slow down and the surrounding got pitch black with the only thing being as visible as day time were those in there with an angered Akarli holding on to the gu
Once we were brought to the back, my eyes went to the elderly looking man sitting on a metallic chair with a caramel skin coloured lady by his right hand side. In front of them I saw two more individuals who weren't turned to us at the time we entered. One of them I couldn't tell their identity from their stature but the other I knew perfectly well who it was. "Char!" Before I could get the word out Levy called out to Boyo who once the both of them turned we saw an annoyed look on his face and it was clear by that look that he didn't want us to be there. The Upriser behind us pushed the both of us, telling Levy and I to keep on walking which we did until we walked up to where Boyo and the others were. "Nice to meet you, the both of you" Icon greeted us with a gentle smile which was obvious that he was hiding something from everyone, including those who were supposed to be his comrades in there. There was still something he failed to expose. "!!" Levy
""A journal?!"" Both Boyo and Jeremiah exclaimed."Yes... SIGH... A very long time ago, way before our formerly great nation was completely destroyed, former General Franklin Crow brought a younger me to one of his expeditions but this want just any regular expedition. It all started with him unintentionally finding the Philosophers Stone which brought about the rebirth and Emergence of our greatest soldier Anthony Wonne on one of his trips into the United States territory, allowing us to tap into a power that was only secret to our enemies. At that time and I had just been born so my father was the one who spearheaded the position I would later get when I was old enough so none of them knew that that small piece of attractive stone had such power hidden within it until years later, moments before the fall of the Old Soviet Alliance territory"Icon spoke with vivid words so that they would be carried along to where he was heading to."Being a curious man and thi
"Holy shit, what's that up there?" I couldn't help but exclaim while I and Levy tried our best to sneak into the slaughter house. We were moving very carefully, trying not to make any noise when my eyes just went up to the sky and I saw some strange looking patterns being created. "Shush Samuels, do you want to get us caught?" Levy reprimanded me with a low tone of voice but when she turned around to face me and do that she saw the awe stricken expression I had and my gaze up to the sky and she too followed. "What are you looking at?" she had her eyebrows scrunched. The moment she asked that question, my eyes flicked to her and I saw that she too was looking up to the sky but instantly realised the fact that she most definitely wasn't seeing what I was seeing. 'Don't tell me that I'm really the only one who sees that thing? No, that must be it because with her keen senses she would have noticed it even before I did if she could see it. Am I perh
Because the GIGANTA MACHINA worked like one big system, when the center of it was torn apart and the Stealth Drones that made up that part being completely destroyed the rest separated and returned to being Drones but because of what happened to the fused system the Stealth device they had was damaged and the separated drones were no longer able to go invisible.They all flew in different paths, dividing into those wanting to attack the trainees and those wanting to attack Michael but Michael acted quickly and changed where the outlet of the explosion was and used that to sweep the drones coming for him until all the explosion energy had been exhausted. From that point he attacked every single drone in the air with his BLACK FORCE-FIELD BLADE, not giving any the chance to attack the trainees but that meant that he had a lot to take care of on his own.With all their Force-fields no longer a viable option for defense and all the trainees they had to go against rea
