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
"Are you the Mech Soldier or not? Because we saw him take the necklace from you...unless I'm wrong which I amn't.""The lie detector was in good condition. Until you came along, conicidence, I think not.""You're right, I am the Mech Soldier." "You see it's people like you who need to be brought down. A twenty year old boy handling machines like this. The scalding wound on her head indicates a highly concentrated amount of heat. Now tell me, how in the world did you come across such piece of tech?" He said putting out a gun and I looked down at the table ruddy nosed. "Who are you working with?""I don't know anything. I don't know, I was just trying to help her curb the pain. I hold nothing against her.""I know that. I said I wanna know who these people are. Right now. You show them to me or I'll never let you lay your grimy eyes on your family again. It's your choice." I shut my eyes. I had never come face to face which this kind of situation. I had no choice but to follow orders.
"It's a rather volatile means of transportation capable of scattering a person molecularly throughout the universe." Gwen said. "And?""It's never been tested and one wouldn't be able to recover.""Never?" I sat in the corner quiet and he glared at me. "So. What do I do with you?" He said and frowned. Whatever it was was entirely up to him now. "I don't know.""Of course you don't. You'll rot in jail if I had a say about it. You have a lot to compensate for." He said with a bitter edge to his voice. I had college, I just realised how much I disappointed them. "If I'm gone, then who's going to protect my family? They can't know that I'm the Knight, they really can't and the Klozars can't know that I still exist." He scoffed. "You faked your own death too, huh? How nice."I paused at Ash configurating. [ Searching for records ]"Records like what?"[ There is a camera installed in your helmet hat records everything you take notice of ]"Even unconciously?"[ I'm afraid not, Zack.
"I can't choose between my family and the world. That's unfair." "Nothing is fair. You have to make a choice, and need I to remind you that you're not exactly untouchable. You have to face the consequences of your actions. If you don't do something, you will be risking billions of lives on the planet and Morphius. And that is a selfish thing to do." It was up to me now, I thought of jail and this mayhem, they were the only things keeping me from having a good life, from finishing college and becoming a mechanical engineer. To think of leaving school behind and training was unthinkable. If I didn't, there would be no dream left. I swallowed hard watching him leave. I saw my watch across from me on the desk. ...Conrad lay low in armor. The police were geared in Kevlar and they were around the androids in full circle. Captain Snow held up a two-way radio. "Aim...Fire!" Gwen gasped, she laid low after she fought tirelessly, while the bullets flew on the Klozandroids. Conrad put ou
He turned back and he found Zandax leaping toward him. ... I arrived in my suit pushing on and I noticed that Gwen and Conrad were in trouble, I couldn't bring the heart into the battlefield unless the battle escalated but there were no other vehicles around and the big villain was gaining on them. I summoned the heart and a heavy looking Klozarian with an axe on a building whacked at me. It was powerful enough to slam me out of the sky. I landed hard and I coughed turning over. Conrad glanced at me and I summoned the car. The giant leaped down and stumped on me. Messages blurred my face and I gripped him by the neck. He kneed me in the gut."Whoa, whoa, whoa!" He spun me around several times and pounded me against a wall. I fell back and he undercut me to the floor. I had no time to look up."Who are you supposed to be?""I am Zandax, hero of Planet Klozar. Tamer of criminals and fugitives who pose as obstacles to Lord Gondomier." He said. "Some hero you are. Wrecking my home_I
Zandax was happy that he would be returning to Planet Klozar as a revered hero. His family will be happy to have known that he had accomplished the Lord's vision. And brought some form of peace. He was so satisfied with the smile on the Lord's face."We can finally leave this planet now. My Lord. I am eager to spread your reign_""Hold that thought. I want to receive the spoil of war that I have been deprived of for so many decades." He said and Zandax held the Morphin Box. He met a black dog wandering and looking for its owner. Lord Gondomier patted its head. "Such a strange but lovely creature doesn't deserve to roam on this empty path. I'll take this one and train it." The dog's beady eyes shook as Gondomier lifted it and walked away. Zandax gazed at the body of Zack, paling and he flipped his cape behind him leaving. *** Conrad lifted Gwen out of the car and he gazed at a ship in the middle of nowhere, the floors were cracked from little rainfall. The car started to move on its
I was in prison without trial because the councilman Tibeus and I admitted to unlicensed euthanasia. He was ready to throw me under the bus. I was offered a prison ID, stripped down for inspection. I squirmed in an attempt to cover myself. Let me say that embarrassment is one of the worse case scenarios that could ever happen to me. I was self-conscious as they patted me for any foreign objects on my body. Too bad, it was gone now. I walked as stiff as a hiker out of the Arctic to receive my prison orange clothes. Red as a tomato, I was left bare and exposed to my shame. They laughed at me, they knew I claimed to be the Mecha Knight. A fresh wave of pain came over me. Pain worse than embarrassment. I couldn't get the image of Lord Gondomier slaughtering my family out of my head. This was more than I bargained for but Zed had warned me. Tears streamed down my eyes. Where was Zed? Where was he the time the Klozars arrived? He destroyed the entire neighbourhood and there were possib
