He couldn't help but throw his head back and laugh. “You think I will take half a million dollars from you? I'm not a con artist!” He exclaimed, his face ridden with unbelieve.Elijah sighed. He knew the man was playing with him, but he was bored with the games. His eyes went to the heart-shaped clock hung on the wall directly in front of him, and he saw it was just ten minutes to midnight. If he didn't evacuate before tomorrow, he was as good as in trouble.“Could we just stop playing around and agree?” He didn't notice his desperation had slipped until Lexington stopped laughing and turned to him.“What are you trying to do?” He tried his luck again.Something told him he needed help. If he could open up to him, he would be more than happy to help.“If you're not going to give me a real price, I'll find my way out.” He pretended to rise, but Lexington quickly gestured for him to sit.“I don't know what it is, but I understand why you wouldn't want to speak to someone like me. Regar

It was 1:am a.m. when he pulled into the warehouse. He parked the truck and jumped down from it.He paced around for a bit, contemplating whether to start parking or wait for Tobias to arrive. But when he calculated the time it'd take for him to come, he decided to go ahead.He strode to the back of the warehouse and punched in the code. The doors slid open, and he went straight to the escalator. It took him down and stopped in front of the doors. He inputted the second code, and the doors to the lab opened.The nurse was waiting for him when he stepped in.“You're finally here. I thought you weren't coming anymore,” she said when she heard his footsteps.“I had to find a truck. Coupled with some delays. Where's mum? How's she?”“She's fine. Do we start to park now? Where's Tobias?'' She looked past him, hoping to see the happy-go-lucky chap.“Hey, on his way. I drove the truck here from the store I got it from. He's driving from the house.”“Yikes. That's an extremely long journey.”

“Hey, nurse, let me help you up the truck. Are you sure you'll be okay alone?” He asked.“Don't be silly, Tobi. I'll be fine. And I can get on a truck by myself. We were taught certain things when I was still serving as a military nurse.”“Alright!” He raised his hand in surrender.“Go in and go help Elijah. It's already 2 am.”He nodded and turned around. As he was going in, Elijah was coming out with two boxes in his hands.“Hey,” he whispered. “For a god of war, you sure are lazy. You should be carrying about five boxes.”“How about I punch you in the face instead?”“Wow, you've gotten so violent.” He shook his head and continued into the warehouse.Elijah smiled as he walked to the truck. Only when he raised his head and saw the nurse already in the car did he realize the fault in their plan.He couldn't throw the boxes at her. They'd rip apart. “Hey, what's the delay?”He was about to explain when he saw a button at the side of the truck with an image. Pushing his luck, he press

With the help of Tobias, Elijah hoisted his mother onto the stretcher.“Does it fit?” He asked from the other side.“Perfectly!”“Let's roll then.”He pushed the stretcher out of the room, and Tobias put off the light.Inside the lab, he stopped for a few seconds and looked around.“Three years of greatness. Can't believe we're leaving.”“But we will be back, right? This is just a temporary setback. We won't let them shut us down forever, right?” Tobias desperately questioned. He couldn't bear the thought of never practicing again. Medicine was his life, his passion—why he never missed a day of work at the Crawford laboratory.It wasn't just because Dr Banes had been his role model. But also because he wanted to learn. As quick as possible, and boy, did he know.“Of course. When I destroy the elites of this City, they'll finally know where the herbs that have kept them healthy for the past three years came from,” he said, with a desert mind glint in his eyes and a fierceness in his vo

After an hour of driving, Elijah stumbled on a roadblock, which led to heavy traffic.The day was getting brighter, and many cars were already out and about. The City had never been this busy before. There was a shift in the air, and everyone went toward the wind.As his truck stopped behind Tobias, he pushed his head outside the window and stretched his neck to see if he could find the source of the traffic. Unfortunately, his eyes couldn't see beyond the cars before him.As he strained, his phone rang. Without pulling his head back, he reached behind and searched the dashboard for the device. He didn't see it and moved to the compartments of the car. There, he found it. “Hello?” He answered and tucked the phone in his ears.“Hey bro, do you have any idea what's happening?” His eyes went to Tobias directly before him, and he rolled his eyes.“Do I have superpowers? We're both stuck.”“Uhmm, yeah. Yeah, you do have superpowers.”He hung up the phone and withdrew his head.“What the f

He returned with saline and cleaning gauze.“Here.”Elijah accepted it and began washing the blood from the boy's body in the hope of finding the gash—the most profound source causing the bleeding.Everything dripped on his body, and in no time, he was completely soaked with blood.“It's a deep cut,” he muttered to himself. “An intense cut.”When he still didn't find the source, he flipped the boy over so his body and back up was down.The first thing his eyes caught was the big wound on his head. “That's it!”He poured the rest of the saline on it. Next, he began searching for a pulse. Dread filled him because he knew deep down the boy was dead. But to look professional in front of these people, he searched for a pulse.Just like he knew it wouldn't happen, he didn't find a pulse.Science had done its part. He wasn't bleeding any more. It was time to tap from his powers and bring the boy back to life.“What is he doing?”“He looks more like a shaman than a medical personnel.”“Is he

He washed his hands with the remaining saline. Feeling all eyes on him, he tried to look as usual and professional as possible. He knew it didn't take much for rumors of magicians to spread. After all, he wasn't a magician but a god.Touching the boy's chest again, he closed his eyes and concentrated.“What is he doing?” Someone asked.“Perfume? Can I get a strong fragrance?” He asked. “I have one.” A woman stepped forward.“Spray it on his nose,” he ordered.“What are you doing, man? That's a dead body, and you're breaking the law,” one of the paramedics said.“Shut up! You couldn't save my son. He's about to do it. Leave him alone so he can concentrate.”“Alright.” He threw his hand up in surrender.The woman did as she was told and sprayed the perfume all over his nose.He tried again, this time successfully blocking out the noise. His hand touched his life force, and his ring flared. No one else saw it—no one except him.His hand moved from his chest to the big wound behind him.

ELIJAH'S POVThe world I found myself in when I opened my eyes wasn't what I was already used to.I was in what seemed like a banquet hall with different festivities going on. I looked down and found a garment with a sash draped down my body.Looking up didn't do much good either. I was lost entirely as to why I was here and what was even this place.A trumpet sounded in my ears, and I looked up to see a man who looked oddly familiar brought us into the room. Men who looked like guards escorted him in. Judging by the crown on his head and jewels littered all over his body, it was safe to say he was royalty.He was led to an altar where he knelt. Another man with gray-filled hair on his large head stepped forward with a golden bowl.I watched with keen interest as the man began to speak in a foreign tone. Smoke rose from the bowl, infiltrating the air. The man kneeling on the altar began to cough.Mr Grey's face scrunched into a heavy frown.“Send him away!” He suddenly charged with al
