4: The Escapee

Allen took a deep breath as he stepped out of the lab gates and made his way towards the parking lot. He had to be careful, as he knew that the military was after him, and he couldn't risk getting caught. He scanned the area with his enhanced senses, making sure that no one was around before he focused his attention on the cars parked in the lot.

He approached a sleek, black sports car and extended his hand towards it, palm facing downward. Suddenly, a faint blue glow emanated from his hand and the car's doors unlocked with a soft click. He then slid into the driver's seat and closed the door behind him, feeling the smooth leather against his skin. He looked at himself in the rearview mirror and frowned at the reflection. He was still wearing his lab clothes he had on for 70 years now and so he decided to change his appearance to that of a "perfect man" he had seen in one of the female scientist's memories.

He closed his eyes and concentrated, focusing his powers on changing his appearance. He felt his body shifting and contorting as his face became more chiseled, his skin smoother, and his hair a shade of reddish brown. When he opened his eyes again, he looked like a well built teenage boy with a dashing appearance. He grinned in satisfaction as he ran his hand through his new hair and put on a black leather jacket and white jeans, completing the transformation.

He then started the engine and the car roared to life, the sound of the powerful engine echoing through the empty parking lot. Allen felt a rush of excitement as he shifted the car into gear and drove out of the lot, heading towards the city. He was finally free, and nothing was going to stop him from living the life he wanted.

Finally arriving in the city, he could feel his energy all around, as if every object and everyone was an extension of his own body, he felt as if he could give a command and any object or anyone would be forced to obey, he wondered the reason for this fact, he then recalled from one of Evans memories that Evan used his body fluids go create a chemical called Al-y23 And that it had being used practically in every aspect of human society and thus could be the reason behind this familiar feeling, well that wasn't his problem right now he needed to find a place to spend the night and then he recalled from one of the security guards memories that the nearest hotel from the lab was "Laurence hills" and so he made his way there, Allen pulled into the parking lot of a nearby hotel, then drove it into a parking space. As he entered the hotel, he could hear the voices of the people chatting and the sound of the TV in the lobby. A woman at the reception desk greeted him, "Welcome to Laurence Hills, sir. How may I assist you?"

Allen gave her a charming smile and replied, "I would like to book a room for the night."

"Sure, sir. Do you have a reservation?" the receptionist asked, eyeing him suspiciously.

"No, I don't," Allen replied with a shrug, trying to appear casual.

"Okay, please fill out this form," the receptionist handed him a form to fill out.

As Allen filled out the form, he overheard the conversation between two women sitting on a couch in the lobby.

"Did you hear about the confidential test subject that escaped from the lab?" one woman whispered to the other.

"No, what happened?" the other woman asked curiously.

"The military sent out a notice to all the guild masters that the subject was on the loose, and they need to be apprehended immediately," the first woman explained.

"I heard that the subject was a treat level S³ (SSS). That's insane!" the other woman exclaimed.

Allen's ears perked up at the mention of a "treat level S³ (SSS)." It must have been him they were talking about. He wondered if he should be worried, but he knew he could handle himself.

After finishing the form, Allen handed it back to the receptionist, who handed him his room key. As he headed to his room, he overheard a group of men in the elevator.

"Did you hear about that crazy subject that escaped from the lab? The one who killed all those scientists and guards?" one of the men said, looking around suspiciously.

"Yeah, I heard the military sent out a notice to all the guilds to apprehend him," another man replied.

"I hope they catch him soon. He's too dangerous to be roaming around the city," a third man added.

Allen listened to their conversation, feeling a sense of satisfaction. He knew he was strong enough to handle anyone who came after him.

As he entered his room, he looked around at the luxurious furnishings, feeling a sense of satisfaction. He was finally free, and he could live his life as he pleased. He then collapsed onto the comfortable bed, feeling the exhaustion from the events of the day catching up to him.

meanwhile Alice who was the guild master of "Lotos," the most powerful 5-star guild in the nation, and a highly skilled SS-rank hunter. She was in her office, reading through reports and filling out paperwork when she received an urgent call from the military

Alice's phone rings, and she answers.

Alice: Hello?

Military Officer: Hello, Ms. Alice. This is Captain Johnson from the military. I'm calling to inform you that a confidential test subject with treat level S³ (SSS) has escaped the lab.

Alice: What?! Who is it? Do you have any details?

Military Officer: Yes, ma'am. The subject's name is Allen. He's a genetically modified human with extraordinary powers, and he's considered extremely dangerous.

Alice: Allen? That name sounds familiar... Wait a minute, my father was involved in that lab! Is he okay?

Military Officer: I'm sorry, ma'am. Your father, Dr. Evan, was killed during Allen's escape.

Alice: (gasps) What?! How could this happen? I need to know everything you know about Allen's escape and his abilities.

Military Officer: We understand your concern, Ms. Alice. We're currently investigating the matter and will provide you with all the details we have as soon as possible.

Alice: No, I can't wait for that. I need to take matters into my own hands. I'm the guild master of Lotos, and it's our duty to protect the people from any potential threat. I need to know everything you know about Allen's abilities and whereabouts right now.

Military Officer: Understood, ma'am. We'll send you all the information we have about Allen and his abilities. We'll also send you the location of the lab so you can investigate it yourself, but ma'am may I inform you that the incident you are about to investigate has a classified grade of "Z" ( Very dangerous information that would put the world in a state of panic) so any information obtained should not be divulged to the general public.

Alice: Understood. I appreciate your help, Captain.

Military Officer: It's our duty to protect the people as well, Ms. Alice. Please be careful and let us know if you need any assistance.

Alice: I will. Thank you.

The call ends, and Alice quickly gets to work, calling her team members and informing them of the situation, her trusted team of hunters, each with unique skills and abilities. She called upon her longtime friend and skilled tracker, David, to help her locate Allen. She also enlisted the help of Samantha, a top-notch hacker and tech expert, and Samuel, a forensic expert, to examine the destroyed lab for any clues or evidence. Lastly, she called upon John, a skilled fighter and strategist, to help her in any potential confrontations.

As they arrived at the lab, the team examined the wreckage and interviewed the remaining scientists and security personnel who were on duty during the breakout.

David: "What a mess! It's like a tornado hit this place."

Samuel: "No, it's more like a bomb explosion. Look at these scorch marks on the walls."

John: "Hey, guys, check this out. There's a computer here that seems intact. Let me see if I can access the files."

Samantha: "Be careful, John. don't brake anything we need all the information we can get!."

John: "Relax, Samantha. I know what I'm doing

David: "Meanwhile, I'll take a look at this pile of rubble. Maybe there's something worth salvaging."

Samantha: "You mean besides your lunch?"

David: "Very funny, Samantha. You should be a comedian instead of a hunter."

Samuel: "Guys, focus. We're here to find out what happened and who's responsible for this mess."

Samantha: "I found something. It's a report on the test subject that escaped. His name is Allen and he's classified as S3, which is the highest level of threat, it says here that his body fluids where used to developed Al-y23.... no way."

Alice: "That can't be right Al-y23 is otherwise known as the awakening fluid, its not possible for it to have been made from human body fluids!?." "THOUGHTS" ( "is this what captain Johnson meant when he said that this was a classified grade "Z" case!?.")

David: "Well, at least we're not bored. Let's keep searching and see if we can find any more clues or leads."

Samuel: "Agreed. And let's be careful, guys. We don't know what we're dealing with here."

meanwhile As Allen settled into his hotel room, he began to consider his options. He needed a source of income and a way to blend in with society, and he knew he needed to act quickly. As he scrolled through the memories, he acquired he remembered something about a school for teenagers with superpowers. After some searching, he discovered the name of the school was "Evalandor Academy".

and so he decided he was going to enroll there, because he was curious how the world teaches people to control their powers.
