I gulped, I couldn't handle the shame either.

"I hope you have a better explanation for creating a false alarm, vandalization of school property, and breaching the school's firewall. I called in your brother as well...you will meet him at the Vice Chancellor's office."

I was shaking terribly and Mort shrugged leaning on the wall.

"I was just called in to sign up for research. You? What did he say to you?"

"It's complicated."

I made my way to the Vice Chancellor's office and Beck was around. He wore a skull tee shirt and jeans. He fumed at me and I avoided eye contact and stood before the Vice Chancellor Prof. Nova Luther, a robust man with brown hair and grey streaks, he wore a brown suit and his secretary. She pursed her lips holding a tablet.

"That's him, Mister Luther. That's the rascal who uploaded it during the false alarm."

"Might I ask why you were late, Mister Trevor?"

"I had to go to the doctor. I have fractured ribs, sir."

"I have the power to stop you from attending this

    "Why were you taking my side?""I'm having mixed reactions about your motives. I want you to be nailed as Kendra puts it but I also want you to save Earth."I was kind of grateful to her for having my back. I suppressed a smile. "Says the girl who blew up government property to put the Klozars to sleep.""Oh please. I couldn't be bothered_""Kids." We hurried to his monitor and I lowered myself to his chair to check on the drones. They were shooting at people and that was enough reason for me to go. "Oogie_I mean Gwen, will you handle them?" "Of course." She grabbed a revolver."I'm right behind you." I said. "No. Stay back." I glared at Gwen who was grinning evilly at me. "That's not fair.""Don't worry Zack, I'll make sure I don't have too much fun." She stayed at the doorframe swinging the heart's key on her finger. I fumed when she left."You have to be where your family is at... right now." He said sternly. I was full of dread. I propped my hand on my chin. He said the best

    I dragged myself home after Gwen talked down on me and Dexter read his newspaper. He didn't say a word to me while I entered inside. I had butterflies in my stomach and my chest tensed. I was afraid to call his attention."How was your day?" He said. I edged away and rushed up the stairs locking the door. Like a veteran waiting for a nuclear weapon to explode. The next few days he didn't mention a thing about the incident and neither did Beck. This was the second week of my punishment. I dug weed out of our garden and felt the hit on my neck. "Hey."I squealed falling back on the grass. She crouched laughing. "I thought you were a dude.""I've noticed you've been working really hard lately Zack, I like that." "I've noticed you've been going out lately." "He broke into the school firewall and he's running late all the time."She giggled and I turned to Beck leaning on a window."Missed a spot. Oh and don't forget. He's been suspended.""Ouch." She said. "You got suspended? Is som

    They frowned at me. "Zed?" "That was out of line, sorry." I said."You bumbling baboon." "It's buffoon.""I know that." I brushed dust off my hair and they stepped out murmuring while I set Beck's easel down. More points for messing up again. I did a double take on the canvas. He had a painting of my mom, she was in a white toga, her shiny blond hair drifted, with her hand was on her shoulder, her eyes closed with a slightly dreamy, sad expression, the rest of her body was going up in smoke in the wind, her arm were bones. Her body seemed like they would be consumed in the flames like candlelight. I sighed and put it back to the other canvases.

    He was still cleaning up what was supposed to be a depot for his car. I brushed my arm because I was about to execute something I may regret for the rest of my life but it was worth a shot. He stepped outside and I brushed my hair and my face turned red. "Zack, I have something to say to you." His blond hair was filthy from grazing the ceiling too much. I moved closer with a clogged throat. He quirked an eyebrow, he looked like one of those models posing dramatically on cars that Kendra showed me in her magazines. I wondered what those were about but I seemed to looking at one. "Not to sound rude but what are you still doing here?" He said mildly clapping dust off his hands.I brushed my hair. "About last night...I want to say, I'm sorry, I should have been a lot more precise in communicating before I set my staff to detonate." He looked at me as if I had dropped another staff attack. Blood rushed into my ears and he twisted his foot on the floor. I speculated about my comrade and s,

    I felt the last of my energy drawn out from me. They were after me now."Oh dear. What are you going to do?" Gwen said to me, I could feel the tremor in my voice. We spoke briefly and I returned home because The police men were heading for my house now. Dad answered them and he brushed his chin stepping out. "Yes, officers, may I help you?" He asked quirking his eyebrow and they spoke briefly trying to step inside. Beck paled and he took Lois away as dad asked him to."We just need to ask your son some questions." He said to him scrawling on a notebook and I lurched in. "About what?""Pertaining to the murder of Petra Jackson." He stated and Dexter gazed upstairs at me. He looked conflicted. I wanted to take up my cloak and disappear. I took shaky steps and I descended the stairs keeping my face straight. Though asking for my alibi was not always the case. I took record of the cop with brown hair and a scar running down his lip. I gulped. I was scared of how much I looked bad on f

    I shook my head. "I didn't. I had the right to a lawyer. I went to Frank's place to help him out with some chores and I went to Leviathan the Ride afterwards during the grand opening." "It took you that long?""I called several times, I called Mort and your other friends...Now I remember, Mort said you went to baseball practice that night then you went to a bar??? Your other friends had no idea where you were, how could you?"Because I'd scold you? The hell I will, you're irresponsible, I called you for god knows how long and you weren't picking. Beck risked his life just to look for you and he got hurt. I looked everywhere. Then the news came up after these creatures hurt people. This is exactly why I ask after all of you all the time. How did you get tangled up with Petra? Tell me! How?""I was at the wrong place at the wrong time." I sniffed. That had a double meaning to it. I was afraid that either the Morphians or Klozars would have my hide."I'm not saying that you killed Petra

    I remembered what Gwen said, the Klozars shouldn't know that I was still alive. Zed faked my death. As far as they were concerned, they gave it to another earthling. It was over, I thought I would make the tabloids or whatnot but I was temporarily off the hook. Being a hero I no longer had to worry about my security but everyone else around me, even Oogie was invulnerable so my dad, siblings, any other connections all become targets that could be used to hurt me, trap me, or get me killed because I no longer had to worry about my own survival. Emotions like anger, love, and fear were unbelievably overwhelming and could make even the most secure and well thought-out plan crumble. That was the kind of world we lived in. Not to mention that if the government would be trying to control me, turn me into a weapon. Or better yet take away the nanites, god, even Zoldor, they could recreate it or try to make a prototype. No wonder the Morphians were wary of me. They knew about us and they were

    Zack wanted to leave a mark but he was afraid that he would go down with the authorities. It was against the law to distribute without a license but there were so many starving.He felt like he was being drawn from different directions. He couldn't bring himself to close up, but Vorax told him they would have to keep this a secret but to what end? He was paralyzed, they wanted different things.He gave out foodstuff and passed out water. He watched the cameras as a man in a white robe approached."Do you know who this is?" Vorax could have not been more paler. He kept his composure and arrived at the door.Zack approached the door."Open up at once."The security guards were infuriated."We did not approve of this activity."Vorax glanced at Zack.

    The lieutenant colonel and the rest of the MST joined Gwen and they watched the ship leave. She turned off her comms. Hoping she didn't make a mistake by letting him go.Echo, Lance and Raymond gathered. "I've done a research_""Since when?" Raymond asked recovering."Since now. He was right. We're going after him." Lance said.Raymond felt guilty for betraying Zack.... Zack watched space, it was incredibly dark. He smiled at the galaxies. "This will never get old." He expected a blow to the head but Vorax joined him."It's nothing new."He gazed at the interiors. "So this is what it feels like to be inside of Zoldor." "You'll get used to it." Zack retorted.Vorax glanced at him and his eyes crinkled. They stood in the awkward silence."So, how long have you been on combat training?""A millennium.""How old are you?""2500, that's 25 in the Terran time zone.""You're 25?""Is that wrong?" He asked."Do you think it's wrong?" Zack watched him intrigued. He waited as he put the Zo

    "Of course not, you can trust me.""Well, you're wrong for taking their side. Your people can be wrong too." He said walking faster."You're giving it away after all you've been through?""I know, I just need to have a little faith." He said. "Besides the videos."She shut her eyes. "Oh...You're going against everything you've stood for just to help someone you barely even know. You're risking your career.""I don't have time for this. I don't stand for this either, I'm on his side and there's nothing they or you can do about it."He focused on the camera and left."Who are they?" Gwen folded her arms.He walked away from her. Zack approached Vorax alone, the behemoths turned their heads and parted ways when he walked boldly and swiftly towards Vorax who was sitting on a chair. He didn't know what he was grappling with.He had to save the Thegronians against all odds."I suppose your way did not work," Vorax said.Zack dropped his kit in the ship. He was done talking.

    Zack watched the images of his predecessors by flicking a button. He recalled what Deuce had said to him, he didn't seem pleased. "I lost." He buried his head inbetween his knees. He frowned clenching his hand. He couldn't just sit there and sulk. He hefted a sword swinging it. He wouldn't let Vorax beat him so easily."Combat mode." The sparring bots emerged from their chambers to attack him, their eyes flashed red running at him.Zack kicked back to dodged the shots. Gwen watched as he ravaged through the hourde swinging the staff. He jumped mildly twisting his body to stab the bot. He grabbed one by the core and squeezed it. Throwing it against the metallic wall, it dented. Another tossed a rock at him. He flipped over its head and he blasted it with a watch. He twisted kicking another. It had him in a crossbody position. Zack yanked its arm off causing himself to fall upside down. He grabbed its head inbetween his legs and tossed it to the wall. Gwen arrived at the control r

    Zack had a lot to accomplish. He couldn't act with his colleagues. He rushed towards Lance who watched from afar.In the arena secluded for training. Zack and Lance exchanged blows and their swords clashed.Zack flipped over his head and landed on the tip of his toes. He gasped gazing at the tear on his suit."I am the fastest thing alive." Lance boasted grinning.Echo rolled her eyes watching from the nosebleed.Gwen watched biting her lower lip."What do you even see in that guy? He's obviously fighting a losing battle."Gwen frowned acknowledging it but she couldn't help it. "You're doing great."Zack held up his buffer barely registering her words. He knew Lance was holding back. None of it felt satisfactory. He gave it all he had to see how sharp his reflexes were.Lance waved a hand to his mouth yawning and he blocked his fist. Tossing him to the other side. He turned to the girls. "I am the greatest gladiator in all of Morphius_"Zack punched him. Lance landed on his face."Tha

    Amidst the solitude, Zack sat alone in his spacious house, the silence around him as heavy as the weight he was about to lift. Echo, once his constant companion, had also ventured into the world of employment, leaving Zack with his thoughts. He decided to fill the empty wall with inspiration, pinning a poster of his favorite bodybuilder as a daily reminder of his goals.With determination burning in his eyes, Zack grasped the dumbbells, ready to push himself to new limits. "I'm gonna get stronger. Better," he muttered as he launched into his workout.Each rep felt like a step closer to his aspirations, and with each record-breaking lift, Zack's motivation soared.

    Zack and Gwen arrived at the house, their eyes taking in the impressive sight before them. "Pretty wild, isn't it?" Zack commented, his excitement palpable.Gwen glanced at the well-maintained lawn and the spacious garage. "It's beautiful," she replied, her voice filled with admiration.They stepped inside, exploring each room with curiosity. "Five bedrooms," Zack noted, mentally calculating the potential."That's a fair deal," Gwen muttered, her mind already sorting through financial plans.Zack leaned closer to her, his voice lowered. "Say, 10-14 years, and I'll be out of debt," he whispered."Why are you whispering?" Gwen asked, puzzled by his privacy. Her question echoed in the empty room, eliciting a chuckle from Zack.He rolled his eyes playfully and gestured towards a walk-in closet. "We have a walk-in closet too," he declared, attempting to change the subject."Why didn't you tell me you were getting a house?" Gwen questioned, a mix of surprise and annoyance in her voice."Beca
