MASON WILLIAMS AND THE CELESTIAL SYSTEM System Alarm
Mason groaned at the obnoxious sound shrieking inside his head. He pulled at his pillow, covering his ears, but pulled him into reality. When he finally opened his sleeping eyes, he shifted his gaze from his window, which was adored by the morning light, to the hologram displayed in front of him. Emoji was wearing a broad smile in the left corner of the screen. Mason heaved a sigh and adjusted his eyes to the alarm on his bed, and it was 6 am.“What is it?” Mason said through a beach breath.“It looks like you were sleeping,” Emoji muttered innocently.“Of course, I was sleeping,” Mason's eyes dagger at him, noticing the sarcasm lacing his tone.Emoji smiled, moving closer to him. “Well, it seems you're awake now,” he said, making Mason mentally roll his eyes.“The Celestial Assassin temple is ready and waiting for your arrival by 7:30 am,” Emoji said. “Don't be late; first impressions matter.”When Mason heard this, sleep evaporated from his eyes. “Why didn't you say so,” he murmured
MASON WILLIAMS AND THE CELESTIAL SYSTEM Mason Meet Marcus
Mason drove out of the mansion, heading toward the location sent by Cleopatra. It was still early in the morning with little traffic, and within fifteen minutes, Mason was close to the location, which seemed to be inside an estate. The neighborhood had one design stretching through the landscape, each house resembling the next. Apart from the expensive car that Mason drove past, he could tell the houses here were expensive, and the few people renting the apartment had a few million in their pockets.When Mason arrived at the destination, he glanced at his phone to ensure it was accurate. He heaved a sigh when he didn't see anyone or Cleopatra around. He waited a few minutes, and when he was sure no one was there, Mason was about to leave when the voices caught his attention."Can we just talk it out," a male voice echoed. Mason glanced at his side mirror to see a man trailing behind Cleopatra, who was angrily storming out of the apartment.The young man, who was in nice clothes, close
MASON WILLIAMS AND THE CELESTIAL SYSTEM Going To Campus
Marcus wiped the blood from his mouth and raised his gaze to the figure above him. Mason's eyes were deadly, rooting Marcus to the floor. He swallowed the lump in his throat and adjusted his gaze to Cleopatra, whose eyes were clouded with tears and disappointment. Marcus was the only guy she had dated, and yet he called her a slut when she was the only one who was loyal in their relationship. Marcus, reading Cleopatra's expression, instantly regretted his decision as the reality of his action dawned on him. He quickly crawled to his knees. "I…I didn't know what came over me, Cleopatra. I didn't mean what I said. Please forgive me," Marcus begged, stretching out his hand, but Cleopatra shrank back. The look on her face told Mason she was tired of hearing those words, and it wasn't the first time he had hurt her. "I can't forgive you this time, Marcus; it's over," Cleopatra said, pulling her hand from Mason as she walked away. Marcus quickly stood to his
MASON WILLIAMS AND THE CELESTIAL SYSTEM Celestial Assassin Temple
Mason watched as Cleopatra made her way into the building, with numerous eyes switching between her and the car she arrived in. Some who were hoping to get a glance at the face behind the wheel walked past the tinted glass but saw nothing. When Cleopatra was out of sight, Mason glanced at his watch, noticing that no matter how fast he was going to drive, he would arrive late to meet with the Celestial Assassins. Without wasting any more time, he started the car engine and made his way out of the school premises. A little while later, Mason arrived at a location that Emoji had informed him about. He was expecting an isolated destination far away from people, but to his surprise, the building was located at the heart of Aleric City, which wasn't a hidden place for a temple to be. The building design was like any other building that towered above his car with other mundane activities. Mason glanced at the building again before making his way to the front gate. Two bulky security men sto
MASON WILLIAMS AND THE CELESTIAL SYSTEM Inside The Celestial Temple
Mason's eyes marveled at the scene outside the open elevator. The building at the surface was just a veil to a hidden Temple underneath the ground. The structure was huge, stretching to an unknown depth, and Mason stared through the transparent bridge leading to the temple's entrance. He couldn't believe something like this was right under the noses of the Aleric city, and no one except the Celestial assassin was aware of its existence. Mason shifts his gaze to the entrance of the temple; from that distance, he can see the light sending down the transparent walls with little figures, which he assumes are where humans navigate their way through. The temple was designed in a modernized way, far from anything like the ancient structures or other familiar temples, such as the monks or other religious temples. At the end of the bridge were a few assassins dressed in their black uniforms, patiently waiting for their arrival. As they approached, Mason's eyes roamed through the group, balan
MASON WILLIAMS AND THE CELESTIAL SYSTEM Tracking Jeremiah
The image of Jeremiah crawled into memory as Mason stared at the system notification, which left him with no details about the mission. It wasn't the first time he had gotten a mission like this, but his heart skipped a beat as he glanced at the name across the screen, making him swallow the lump in his throat. They hadn't talked in a while, and now his best friend was in danger, and he didn't know what kind of trouble Jeremiah was in. Mason quickly slid his hands into his pocket and brought out his phone, dialing his number. After a few rings, the call was declined, making Mason stare at his screen with several possibilities crawling into his mind. Mason shrugged off the thoughts and dialed the number again, but just like the first time, the call was declined.“Is there a problem, Master?” Miranda asked, noticing the frown on Mason's face as he constantly tapped on his phone screen. Mason raised his eyes to her, and he knew Miranda was to notice his distress even when he pretended n
MASON WILLIAMS AND THE CELESTIAL SYSTEM Driving Out Of The Celestial Temple
The noise of the rumbling ascending elevator soared through the car as everyone strapped themselves against their seat belts, waiting for the secret elevator to reach the surface. After a few minutes, the back exit of the Celestial Temple was open, revealing sunlight that kissed their skin as they drove out of the veil, hiding the temple's identity. Mason glanced at his watch behind the wheel and averted his gaze to the thirty-minute timer in front of him. He had personally set that as the ideal time to reach the tackles. "Is everyone ready?" Mason asked, shifting his gaze to his side, where Miranda sat. She nodded her head, and he glanced at the rearview mirror, confirming that everyone had their seat belts on. He stepped on the gas, and the car zoomed into the streets of Aleric City, leaving dust behind.Mason skilfully Navigated through the heart of Aleric city, leaving pedestrians dumbfounded and alarmed by the speed at which the car was moving. Other cars who noticed the incomin
MASON WILLIAMS AND THE CELESTIAL SYSTEM The Jackals Hideout
Thirty minutes out of Aleric city, Mason finally slowed down as his eyes fixed on the two-story building that came into view, making everyone marvel at the fact he was able to arrive at their destination with the exact time he had set at the beginning. Everyone wore a similar stunned expression except for him, who knew about the possibilities of the legendary driving skill. Mason focuses on the Jackal's hideout, ignoring the praises that linger in his car. Miranda, who was quick to read his expression, instructed everyone to be quiet and ready as they slowly arrived at a stop, with the noise of nature masking the rumbling sound of the car. Mason quickly turned off the engine and glance to Miranda, who also noticed more than a dozen armed men outside the 'Getting past them to save Jeremiah is impossible,' Mason muttered to himself as different scenarios played in his head. He shifted his gaze to the back, where Nyx and her colleagues unbuckled their seat belts and excited the car.

A System Message
"Follow me," the chief announced, leading the way toward the hallway where his office was located. He muttered a few things to Haley, who ignored him as she and her security team trailed behind the man. Meanwhile, Mason, who was behind them, found his legs rooted to the ground when a series of multiple screens expanded throughout the room.The largest screen in front of Mason displayed a red beacon signaling an emergency message. Understanding the system always sent a countdown to every emergency message or missions, he hesitated to see if the count down would show and when it didn't, Mason furrowed his brow, stretching his hand to open the message.“Excuse me, sir?” A voice called, pulling Mason out of his thoughts. He narrowed his gaze to the men in front of him, realizing he was in public and would attract attention if anyone noticed him speaking to himself or gesturing at an invisible object in the air.“The chief is waiting for you, sir,” the man repeated.Mason nodded his head,
Police Station 2
The atmosphere inside the police station was thick with unanswered questions, created by the newcomers. Officers who had previously been bored by their mundane workloads now had their gazes fixed on the figures radiating with aura.Mason and Haley, assisted by the men in suits, ignored the silent whispers and the prying side glances darting from them to the chief. “Did the newbies actually arrest Williams on their first day?” A voice drifted through the air.“If I remember correctly, arresting someone usually involves putting them in cuffs,” another voice laced with skepticism chimed in. Other officers listening to the whispers averted their glances toward Mason and Haley’s hands as they discreetly searched for any signs of handcuffs.“There is no cuff, but if the chief is involved, it is not a good sign,” another officer whispered, narrowing their gaze to the man in his early fifties.The chief, finalizing his call, pulled the phone from his ear and slid it into his pocket. The conc
Police Station
The revving sounds from the car's exhaust reverberated through the bustling street, making pedestrians halt their activities and turn their heads towards the source of the commotion. Behind the red and blue siren, which signaled a clear path, was a Bugatti and several luxurious cars, which made other cabs and car owners stick out their necks to have a glimpse at the convoy gliding down the street.“That must be the Williams," a tall man in a worn-out jacket said as he glanced toward the black cars speeding away from the hospital entrance.His companion, who also mirrored his gaze, sighs with a hint of disappointment. “It means the press conference is over, and we missed our chance to meet Mr. Williams in person,” his voice cracked into a whisper, unable to pull his gaze from the direction the vehicles had vanished. “Do you think the hospital is still accepting patients for the clinical trial? What if they turn me down?"The tall man's face melted into a pitiful expression, prompting h
The Arrest
The words and the presence of the police officers sent a cold silence through the lobby, leaving everyone stunned at the men in black uniforms who had their gaze panned at Mason and their hands reaching for their cuffs.“What in God's name is going on?” The words escaped the lips of a staff member, who had walked into the scene. “Wait! Is that the police? Is Mr. Williams being arrested?” Another voice chipped in, increasing the murmurs that roam through the crowd of medical staff and visitors caught in the scene.“What is this nonsense?!” Haley's voice slices through the series of whispers, bringing the room to an instant silence. The crowd, seeing her outburst, averted their gaze to the officer who had already brought out their handcuffs. “Do you know who you are talking about?” The first officer, sensing the incredulity in her voice glanced at his colleague who mirrored Haley stern expression. “Of course I know who I'm messing with,” the man scoffed, casting a slide glance at Maso
More Rumours
The air felt thick with anticipation as everyone awaited Mason’s response to a question.“My mother is the strongest woman I know, and since the death of my father, she has poured her heart and soul into building the Williams empire, and to answer your question, no,” Mason said, his voice steady, suppressing his anger. “What many of you might not realize is that Haley is also my twin sister, and the reasons for my identity being kept a secret are something I’m not going to share.”Mason's voice signaled the end of every question regarding his personal life.“Mr. Williams, is it true that the hospital continues with the medical trial despite the lawsuit filed by the parents of the victim?” a journalist asked, prompting Mason's brows to furrow at the term "victim." Irritation flickers across his face like an unwelcome shadow, and he instantly adopts a composed facade. “Indeed, the Jordans have filed a lawsuit regarding their daughter's name appearing on the list of trial participants,”
Press Conference
The conference room at Williams Hospital was situated on the first floor of the building, and its white walls were adorned with simple yet modern decorations that provided a calm and relaxed atmosphere. The news of Mason addressing the crowd had hit the air, and every journalist outside constantly dropped their gaze to their watch, and when the time for the press conference approached, the space quickly filled with several recording devices set. The excitement and curiosity wasn't just centered in the conference room alone; rather, it included the viewer who also heard the news circulating through social media platforms crowded around their devices, eagerly following live updates and waiting to catch a glimpse of the most anticipated speaker of the day. Amid the bustling crowd of journalists, a team of security personnel dressed in black suits stood at various points of the room. Their eyes scanned the area like hawks while communicating discreetly with one another via their walkie-
Mason's Decision
"The public is still in confusion about the incident, and we are all waiting for an official statement from the Williams Central Hospital and its officials, who have been ignoring our sincere requests," the lady in front of the mic announced with a concerned expression.Mason, who had his gaze panned to the TV screen with a furrowed brow, mentally rolled his eyes at the journalist's facade. He knew most of them didn't care about any incident, rather than the spotlight of being the first to broadcast anything that would give them recognition.When Mason caught sight of his sister weaving through the gathered crowd, a grin spread across his lips. With the expression on her face, he knew there's only one reason for her being in the hospital, which is to support him.“Ms. Haley!” One of the journalists stopped her. “Is it true the trial is going on even after a lawsuit was filed by the Jordan family? Is the hospital performing illegal surgeries?”“No comment,” Mason heard her say before w
The Sound Of Life And Death
The sound of a continuous beeping monitor filled the air, sending cold tension through the white walls of the OR. Unlike the other staff members, who were visibly shaken with their faces pale, Dr. Lukeman remained calm with his gaze focused on the patient on the operating table.The overhead lights cast shadows, illuminating the sweat on his brow. The nurse next to him quickly pulled a handkerchief to pat his face. “Dr. Zarah, what is the patient's status?” Dr. Lukeman asked for the second time, pulling the young doctor out of her trance.She instantly snapped her head back to the monitor and said. “Her stats are dropping fast,” she announced, unable to conceal the fear in her voice.When he finally pulled his eyes away from the machine, he turned his attention to the monitor, which continued to beep relentlessly.Mason, leaning forward, mirrored his gaze over to the glowing screen that displayed a series of jagged lines and fluctuating numbers.“Please, Fiona, you can't give up,” Ma
Dr.Akin Interruption
Time seemed to slip through Mason's fingers as he stood in the gallery with his eyes glued to the scene unfolding in front of him. The silence in the room was heavy, and the sound was the soft, rhythmic hum of the 365G laser was the only thing echoing through the space.Dr. Lukeman, who had his eyes fixed on the surgical microscope embedded on the machine, muttered instructions to his staff, who didn't waste time to carry out the task.“The tumor is visible, and I need everyone to remain still at this moment,” Dr. Lukeman announced, casting a quick, assessing look at his team. “How is she doing, Dr. Zarah?” He asked, and Mason, with a mixed expression knitted on his brow, averted his gaze to the doctor.“Her vitals are stable,” she replied, not peeling her eyes from the machine.“At this moment, Dr. Zarah, you need to monitor that closely,” Dr. Lukeman instructed, and his brow furrowed in concentration as he redirected his attention to the machine.Mason, not able to have a clear view
