During the telepathic communication Angel had been busy speaking with Ryder and in the process strategizing how they were going to go about with the regrouping of everyone in a specific rendezvous point that they could come up with, just like how the plan was with Adam's team. While also avoiding being seen by as many Uprisers in the district as possible which at this point, after they had all done their separate surveillance, they came to the conclusion that there seem to none present at the moment.
Regrouping was going to be a challenging task to carry out now because even though they knew each others current position, that didn't mean that they had any knowledge of how they were going to get to each other if they didn't know their way around the district, meanwhile, slowly the protective aura that came with the Transmigration was diminishing and with that so would their ability to communicate telepathically.With their reason for being sent to the field be"What? What could that be— Don't tell me, it's the" Angel said and all of them who remembered what Roman King had said while having the information of this invisible flying object coming from Nathaniel who was using his ability to sense signals straight to their mind echoed the same two words... """STEALTH DRONE!!!""" Being quick to act and a good team member who believes that everyone has their own roles to play in order to achieve success as a whole, Angel asked Nathaniel what they were going to do because he was the only one who could both sense the stealth drones and know where the exact location of these flying enemy was. At this point the protective aura was about their eye region where within the next couple of seconds it would be completely gone and with it their telepathic communication too so the tension was high to get whatever information they could get on to everyone before that finally happens. Within a fraction of a seco
"And that's how we got to where we are now" Angel said, taking yet another bite on the second chocolate bar she had with her, the last piece of it infact before dropping the wrapper to the floor.Meanwhile, Adam who she had been telling all of this, about everything that happened on their end after he had made the emergency call for reinforcements which unfortunately got cut off to them being sent into the field to provide assistance, to had moved to the original spot he was in the store when he was trying to listen for mechanical sounds being made by any of the Stealth drones but ended up coming into contact with these Emerged trainees instead."You all found me using the information about the one and outs of the district you got from one of the other trainees who are all currently hiding from the drones somewhere but you don't know exactly where that is because your telepathic communication got cut off the moment the aura vanished" Adam said as a summary
Observing that the mixed feelings and confusion surrounding these Emerged trainees was only continuing to sky rocket the more time that went on by and there wasn't even much of that to spare due to the situation everyone finds themselves in, Adam thought what he could do to help them out of it and to do that an half assed comment from him wasn't going to do the job. He would have to give an actual solution to their predicament and so he pondered. "From the story she told me they were in such a hurry to get to the field and weren't prepared for what comes with that that they didn't even get to have their own weapon of choice tested first and then given to them. I can't believe that The Prophet got careless and forgot to at least tell them that they would have to kill and then give them stun weapons to at least minimize the fatal outcome of their attacks. He doesn't seem like someone who would forget such vital parts of war so why in the hell didn't he informed them and pr
"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 m
Angel 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
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
