MASON WILLIAMS AND THE CELESTIAL SYSTEM Natalia Confrontation
Through the corner of his eyes, Mason could see Natalia's figure closing in with every running step she took. Mason, refusing to stop, could hear her frustration breathing down his back including the sound of her dangling jewelry while her hair bounced on her shoulder blade.“Mason!” She yelled again, jumping in front of him to block his path. Halting his footsteps, Mason drops his gaze on her figure. “What?” He asked in a cold tone devoured by zero emotions. Natalia forced a lumps down her throat while her face twitched with a smile which Mason Didn't reciprocate. She heaved a sigh brushing the strand of hair from her face and said. “Did you block my number?” she asked, holding Mason's straight gaze.Her question remained unanswered as he stayed firmly quiet. After a brief second, he tried to walk past her but she blocked his path again, making a frown crawl onto his face. “Get out of my way Natalia,” he growled, making her scoff, folding her hands across her chest.“So you can talk
MASON WILLIAMS AND THE CELESTIAL SYSTEM Trouble At The Entrance
The auditorium building was huge, and its size stretched to an unknown distance Mason wasn't aware of. The irony of the situation hit him, and a little smile appeared on his face. He has been at Aleric University for years; it was his first time at the student auditorium. The time a general gathering was announced like this was during his freshman year, and he could not attend due to the part-time jobs he was juggling. Shifting his thoughts, Mason followed the queue with several students walking in the same direction. The Security guard standing at the entrance of the auditorium building made Mason groan as the reason for their appearance whacked him. He wasn't holding his student pass, which he had forgotten at home. Since it is an official gathering with the university staff, including other high administrators of the University, the security pass will strictly be used. As if that wasn't enough, Mason raised his head to the broadcasting speaker at the top of the building, towering
MASON WILLIAMS AND THE CELESTIAL SYSTEM Who Did You Call?
The security man locked eyes with Mason, who hung up and slid his phone into his pocket. During his phone call, Mason noticed that the security man instructed his subordinate to allow several female students into the auditorium, even when they didn't have their student pass with them. The subordinate wasn't pleased with the instruction since his superior had already denied a male student access to the auditorium for not having his student.“You better do as you're told!” the man growls, pushing his colleague out of the road. “Here you go girls, you can go in,” he smiled, allowing the giggling girls through.Meanwhile, Mason who was watching the scene couldn't figure out what pleasure the security man would have for denying him access but he didn't think much and was glad he could turn the situation around.When he approached the entrance again, the security man scoffed as he thought Mason must have returned to his senses, and had come to beg so he could be allowed into the auditorium.
MASON WILLIAMS AND THE CELESTIAL SYSTEM Congratulatory Ceremony
Inside the vastly decorated auditorium were several banners cascading down the white wall of the hall which describe the awards, and the congratulatory ceremony. The atmosphere was filled with cheerfulness and excitement leaving a subtle of anticipation on the participating students and along the space was a series of chairs arranged down to the horizon ending a few meters from the dais.Mason glanced through the crowd, and he could see more than six hundred students from various levels navigate to occupy them, except for Jeremiah. When Mason couldn't figure out his location, he brought out his phone to dial his number."Mason!" a voice called, and he raised his head to the direction to see Jeremiah waving from the middle roll of the hall. Several eyes turned in his direction; those who didn't know him glimpsed at him while those at his level focused on Mason, who made his way through the walkway."Why on earth will you come to school like this!" Mason muttered to himself, moving tow
MASON WILLIAMS AND THE CELESTIAL SYSTEM A Prestigious Student
Silence roamed between the two friends; even when Jeremiah said nothing, he knew he was saying everything. "She is just a friend," Mason said, ignoring Jeremiah's prying gaze, which didn't quench the stunned expression and the sarcasm in his eyes."Since when did you and the prettiest girl in our department become friends?" Jeremiah asked, slurring the last words. Mason didn't bother to provide an answer to the question and quickly dismissed the topic by placing his index finger on his lips to silence Jeremiah. "The ceremony is starting," Masaon said, nodding at the person approaching the dais. Jeremiah reluctantly shifted his eyes to the man holding a microphone, staring at the crowd with a broad smile."Good day, distinguished student it is my pleasure to announce the commencement of the Art project ceremony, and before we do, there are some important personnel I would like to invite to the VIP reservation," he said and shifted his eyes to the card on his hand."Firstly I would lov
MASON WILLIAMS AND THE CELESTIAL SYSTEM The Qualified Students
The whispers of students lasted for about two minutes before the host tapped at his microphone signaling for silence. The noise died down prompting all eyes to turn in his direction. The host cleared his throat and announced. “With the official seated we will proceed with the next phase of the ceremony,” he said then paused at the lady in a white dress who approached the podium and whispered into his ear. She handed him a list of the qualified students for the Art project, making total silence soar through the room as the participant focused their eyes on the paper even when they couldn't make out the names on the list.“On behalf of the school, I would like to call on Mason Williams, to announce the name of the qualified student and also give out the awards,” the host said, turning to him with a nod. Without hesitating Mason stood to his feet, and with the crowd tracing his every step, he approached the host, who handed him the list of the qualified candidates and the instructions t
MASON WILLIAMS AND THE CELESTIAL SYSTEM The Last Qualified Student
The voice of the excited crowd, chanting Cleopatra's name, lingered in the air, as they waved her triumph flag. The officials seeing their reaction wore stunned expressions, as they shifted their eyes from her to her fans, which consisted of her colleagues and those who were from other levels. Mason, wearing a similar expression, didn't want to interrupt their celebration, and gave them a few seconds, before he softly tapped at his microphone, sending a hush through the crowd who finally rested their gaze on him. Complete silence filled the room, making everyone sit on their edge, as they waited for the last name to be called.“That last name on the list today is no other than,” Mason paused, raising his gaze to the crowd filled with anticipation, except for Jacob, who was already on his feet, standing in the shadows of the walkway and waiting for his name to be called. Mason, noticing his figure, wore a mischievous smile. “The name of the last qualifiers is none other than John Steve
MASON WILLIAMS AND THE CELESTIAL SYSTEM Mason and Jeremaih
A little while later the ceremony came to an end, and students in groups hushed out of the auditorium, discussing the details of the event and the qualified winners, who won the million dollars. Mason trailing the line could have a few little curious eyes staring at him. Within a few minutes, they all exited the hall, making their way to their various Classes.“Mason!” a voice called, and he turned to see Jeremiah running towards him. His face was filled with excitement, making a smile appear on Mason's face. “I can't believe it, man! You're now a prestigious student!” He half yelled, placing his arm across Mason's shoulder.“I guess I am!” Mason replied, pretending to be surprised at the announcement. Though he felt bad lying to his best friend, he couldn't tell Jeremiah the truth, as it would result in him asking more questions, which was the last thing he wanted for now.“Damn, I'm sure that's why Mr. Douglas couldn't make any move against you, since he already knew you were a pres

Hostage
At the entrance of Heaven Institution, several students were ushered out of the building. Meanwhile, Mason, aware of the danger, pushed his way through the crowd and entered the narrow hallway. When he reached a T-junction, he scanned the area, letting out a brief sigh. Just as he was about to make a decision on which path to take, a desperate voice rang out. “Help!”Mason, with a skipped heartbeat, turned in the direction of the sound. He noticed several staff members fleeing from the east wing of the building. As he caught a glimpse of their expressions, he saw pure fear etched on their faces.Without hesitation he dashed through the hallway, and as he got closer, the voice became familiar.“P… please let me go!” The voice pleaded, causing Mason to increase his speed. When he arrived at the scene, his heart skipped another beat. Anthony, wearing a frown, held a gun to a student’s head.“Elizabeth!” he muttered, remembering she was the student who eagerly gave him direction during
Heaven Institution
Mason arriving at the Heaven institution, exited his car with a swift motion. He shut the door with a soft sound and then averted his gaze to survey the environment. His expression darkened as the figure who had ignited his anger was nowhere to be found. "Where the hell are you Anthony!" He growls, understanding Anthony must have found another way into the premises to avoid security. Mason's eyes flickered back toward the school entrance, where two female staff members stood having a conversation. They cast their curious glances in his direction, and they adjusted their pose when they realized he was the young billionaire the school was murmuring about a few weeks ago. Mason, whose alignment was different from theirs, ignored their smile and paced into the building, masking his anxious expression.“Mr. Williams,” a familiar voice called out, breaking through his thoughts. Mason turned to see a security personnel approaching him, a welcoming smile plastered on his face.“Good mornin
Unexpected Accident
“Come on, Haley, pick up the damn phone!” Mason muttered under his breath. His heart raced with every ring, and just like the thousand times before, the call dragged on and inevitably went to voicemail. The thought of her not answering gnawed at him, tightening the knot of anxiety in his stomach. Mason swiped his hand across the air. “Emoji,” he called, and the celestial system was displayed in front of him with emojis floating at the top right corner.“What can I do for you today?” Emoji asked, pulling Mason's gaze from the rearview mirror. The loud sirens, which had been soaring through the street, were still on his tail.The policeman, who had noticed the car zooming with a speed above the speed limit, stayed on his tail, waving for him to pull over, but Mason, who had limited time, was adamant about his instructions and stepped on the gas, prompting a full chase.Ignoring the cop, Mason turned to the emoji, “I want information on possible accidents around the city within this ti
The Attack
The sound of sirens reverberated through the busy streets. Pedestrians walking by averted their gaze to the military convoy. Drivers caught off guard by the unexpected traffic either exited their vehicles or craned their necks to catch a glimpse of the scene.“What is going on?” a young woman asked. Her brow furrowed in concern as she spotted more than a dozen militants moving towards the facility. Their stern expressions electrified the urgency of the moment."If there are a lot of soldiers on the road, it usually means something bad is happening," another person replied, their voice laced with anxiety as they watched the convoy of military vehicles rumble through.“That's true. I heard there was a robbery,” another added.“A robbery?! I thought this place was more secure than a bank!”Several gossip roamed through the onlookers as the military personnel cleared the path.Meanwhile, Mason and the Celestial Assassin noticed the traffic and decided to take a short detour into town. Ba
New Deal 2
The entire room fell silent and Mason turned to Miranda, who nodded before exiting the surveillance room. Outside the building, she wore a medical badge alongside a first aid kit then made her way toward the main gate. When Mr. Anthony's men noticed her presence, they raised their guns at her, prompting Mason to pick up his phone.“If a single scratch appears on her body, I'm pulling out of the deal and coming after you myself,” Mason warned, disconnecting the line before Mr. Anthony could respond.Caught off guard by the sudden threats, he quickly waved his hand, instructing his men to stand down.Without hesitation, Miranda approached the injured man with a first aid kit and worked to control the bleeding. Once she had finished, she helped the injured staff member back to the building while the others returned with the container housing the viruses.“Open the gate,” Mason instructed, turning to see the staff staring at him in shock.“Sir, are we really letting them go?” One of the c
New Deal
Except for the celestial assassin, the staff stared at Mason with eyes filled with astonishment. The facility negotiator, who was now standing at the corner of the room, also turned her gaze in his direction.“Who on earth is this guy?” she whispered, meeting the stunned gaze of the commander, who was also surprised by how Mason knew that the person she had been negotiating with on the phone wasn’t in charge.“Good day to you, Mr.?” Mason asked, shifting his gaze across the monitor to see the chaotic scene unfolding outside the truck. He could see the robbers taking their positions with their guns pointed in different directions.“I didn't take the phone to get familiar with whoever you are!” Mr. Anthony shouted, his voice echoing with frustration as he opened the driver seat. With a snap of his fingers, he signaled his men, who quickly circled the truck and pulled out two men in facility uniforms. The robbers roughly shoved the men to their knees, pressing a gun to each of their he
Robbers Demand
With the siren blaring through the building, chaos filled the entire space. Mason and the celestial assassin, now ushered to the back of the room, watched as the staff hurried around, trying to come up with a solution.“P…please believe me, I have no choice!” Mr. Umar's voice echoed through the closed door as several bulky security personnel wearing red berets dragged him away. Mason, who had been patiently observing the chaos from the surveillance room, glanced at the woman who was whispering to the commander.“Commander!” the woman yelled, her face pale as she dropped the phone from her hands. Mason, observing her, could see the fear evident in her expression.“Yes, what is it? Have they made their demands?” the commander asked, his eyes fixed on the screen displaying the location of the front gate. The entire fence surrounding the building was completely sealed and electrified by the device mounted on it, designed to prevent anyone from entering or exiting the compound during a red
Surveillance Room
After redirecting their path to the second floor of the building, they made their way toward the command center, which was Mason's original destination. The commander, taking the lead, swiped his card on the sensor and nudged the door open.Several curious eyes turned in their direction, and before anyone could raise to offer their greeting, the commander waved his hand, brushing off their gesture with a casual dismissal.“Good day everyone. As you all know, we have important guests among us today. Please answer any of their questions and treat them well,” he said, then nodded at Mason.“Hello everyone, We apologize for the inconvenience, but as you know, we cannot enter the BSL-4, so we will be observing from here." Mason added, prompting those sitting in front of their screens to adjust their positions.With the commander giving the go-ahead, the celestial assassin cast across the room, filling their eyes with live footage from the BLS4 while secretly keeping an eye on surveillance
BSL4
After they went through the front gate of the FCTS, Mason navigated towards the main building looming ahead.“How fast can this car go?” The commander, who had been watching the speedometer barely rise above 30 mph, asked.“Well, I would like to show you, but signs won't allow that,” Mason replied, nudging his head at the speed limit mounted by the roadside. Noticing his expression, Mason revved his engine, making the commander cast a satisfied smile at him.Several patrol units patrolling the premises in their vehicles were about to reverse in pursuit of the newcomer, but when they noticed their superior in the passenger seat, they sent a silent nod, which he reciprocated.Upon arriving at the entrance of the building, Mason followed his lead and exited his car to begin his tour. Although he wasn't sure how Mr. Anthony would arrive at the facility. The only way he could keep track of any movement on the premises was to locate the surveillance room without raising any suspicion.“You
