"That is an appropriate question to ask albeit the way it came off was a little rude but before I answer I ask you take your hand off my person"

"Rude? Off your person? What are you talking about?" I said with scrunched eyebrows and a slight head tilt to the left for a better view of who I was Interacting with 'and why does this voice sound very familiar? It almost sounds like...' I pondered 

"Look down" With a single eye flick downwards of her emerald green iris she pointed at which direction she wanted my attention to head towards 

"Down?" I did as told and took my sight in the path she wanted but while doing that and since I woke up and extended my hand out I had been feeling a soft compressible sensation pressing against my wrist but my mind hadn't been given the leeway to reflect about it

How can there be two hundred percent of anything?"Although it was floating around with the air it wasn't classified as p

    "What'd you mean it helps you maintain your body longer? Does that mean that you can't if we step outside? Explain""Something like that. What the Rectulators do is to send out a chaotic frequency that excites the Spirit Crust particles making them easier to control and hold together" She replied while still looking up with meChaotic frequency was the mirrored frequency of the harmonic frequency but it only works on the Spirit Crust particles so since it was technically the opposite the name was fashioned around it. During my previous timeline I had also theorized that something like that could be created but didn't really need a use or application for it so I didn't stress on its creation"Without the Rectulators you can't hold your body for long meaning that with that sense you are almost compl

    From the living room I went into the kitchen and had something to eat thanks to help from Saint Patrice and Dorris in helping me restock my fridge then while following and finishing my usual routine I went out to get to work fully preparedOutside my building I was waiting for the taxi when all of a sudden one pulled up in front of me with the horn honking grabbing everyone's attention and also forcing an estranged look on my faceIn this new timeline where things looked to be slightly more better than my last there were more people walking around outside in the day when a comparison is made although in terms of population they were worse off but that mostly affected those formerly at the other side of the Rift who now appear to be amongst those this side of the Rift"My gosh, who does this

    We drove all the way to the park and went out to the same hotdog stand which we had parked close to some days ago.The one Tony had gotten that very delicious and mouth watering hotdog for me which cheered me up straight away"Two usuals please" Said Tony with a gesture of his hands pointing out two fingers to the hotdog vendor who was more than happy to process his order with a smile and me beside Tony.It was a gentleman even more older than the both of us so it was well established that he took care and love with every snack he made to give it the outmost flavour"Here you go" The man passed them to Tony who passed one on to me in those boxes they usually came in while the both of us walked to one of the benches to watch the surrounding area

    We drove from the Park with the GHA Log Outpost in the neighboring district being our end destination and whilst the drive proceeded I would occasionally look out the window and everytime we passed the imagery of a well dressed and uniformed officer of any force be it the Police or Army or Navy I would feel immensely guilty about a certain someone nicknamed Boyo"Saturday is just around the corner but how can I even show my face to you after being the one who enabled you into doing what you did, huh Boyo?"I mumbled and my focus on the closed window glass would shift to my image reflecting off of it while everything beyond that became blurredFrom his driver's seat Tony would take quick glances at me whenever he wasn't busy looking at the road but he wouldn't say anything to me which was mostly because he didn't know what to say that could change the mood he fel

    "Why are you looking at me like that?" The man questioned adjusting the front part of his brown baseball cap which was supposed to be facing his front in the same direction his eyes were but was doing the opposite and his slight nudge of it wasn't meant to fix that but to press it even more down on his head which stretched the skin of his forehead a little"You know you can be disgusting some times... Ever heard of a silent whistle? No? What about a silent yawn?" The lady in front of him with her hands resting on her hips with the back of the wrists repremanded the man with an overdramatic scowl on her face"What does a whistle being silent have to do with any of this?" replied the manAs a response to the reply of confusion the gentleman she had just berated gave the lady with the microphon

Bright held her by the shoulders pushing his way to be in front of her as he asked his question almost looking eye ball to eye ball but he only managed to get a less than a second long flick of her eyes stare at his as all her attention was placed on myself who hadn't yet turned aroundThey were looking at me from the side as we both stood on the same pavement so unless I turned in their direction they would forever be left unseen to me and where they stood was in the opposite direction which Tony had driven through so the chances of turning in their direction was even less"Yes" she respondedFrom her halt it looked to be like she knew me or at least about me because she had been standing still for far longer than what was expected of a stranger.

    The sudden mention of my name right on the street was a little surprising and filled with intrigue that I took a quick pause which threw me and my balance off a bit as I wasn't expecting that"Yes?" I turned to lock eyes with two strangers which I had never seen before but was quick to accept the fact that they might know me even though I didn't them then I took a second to look and observe the both of them from their clothes, expressions, body language and then to the phone clenched in the hand of the man behind who tried to hide it from view the way he kept his arm with the front of his hand unnaturally turned forwardWith all that happening, in my mind I also took the account of reporters and camera people stationed outside my place of work whose dressing was somewhat of a reflection of theirs and also the guy dressed like another of the camera men sta

    THE RIFT BETWEEN

    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

    MAKING THE RESET

    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

    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

    FINAL PAGES

    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

    THE JOURNAL BELONGS TO...

    ""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

    LOST WAR EVEN BEFORE BEGINNING

    "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

    NUCLEAR DIVERSION

    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
