" I think it is settled then. We need to move fast Eddy, we don't know the danger Zico is in."Max is determined to follow them, " I am fine okay. I can handle myself.""Are you sure about this? We don't know Zaco as much as you. But if he is deadly then you need to stay back. We can handle him on our own."" I promise I won't slow you down." The crew, now focused on finding Zico, gathered their belongings and prepared to follow the signal Eddy had traced. Max, though weakened, was determined to contribute to their mission.As they made their way through the unfamiliar territory, Amy kept a watchful eye on Max, concerned about his well-being. "Max, you really should take it easy. We don't want you passing out on us again," she urged."I appreciate the concern, Amy, but time is of the essence. We can't afford to waste any more of it," Max replied, determination overshadowing the pain in his eyes.Darius chimed in, "Max is right. We need to move quickly, but we also need to be cautious
**Present world**Irrisia was getting worked up. It had been months and there was no news about Max. " Do you think he is dead?" she asked Darius with a worried look on her face.Walking closer to her. " We need to keep our hopes alive. I don't know what to tell you. I believe Max would fight his way back to us. In the meantime why don't we visit Zaco in the prison."" Is that a good idea?" Amy asked.Zico came out of a room with a towel around his waist, " I think you all need to calm down. I believe Max is alive."They all looked at him and asked almost at the same time. " Why would you think he is alive?"" it is just a feeling. The Max I know doesn't give up easily in the face of any trial. I believe he will scale through this difficult time"Irrisia brought her face down, " We are thinking of going to see Zaco in prison. Do you think that is a good idea?"" Yes, we need to see him to know what his games are. But I won't advise you to go and see him." he quickly said and took a se
Darius and the rest of the crew immediately delve into action. They needed to find Zaco and Xavier fast. And with the help of Shades now, they were impossible to find. " Eddy, can you help track down Zaco and Xavier? We need to find them as soon as possible. Max's life is at stake at the moment. We can't afford to slack away right now." Darius said, looking at the rest of the crew l." I can't track them at the moment. I have tried even before you ask me but it looked like Shades had been cloaking all their activities."Dino looked at them as they went on and on trying to arrive at a solution. Then suddenly an idea crept into his mind. " Xavier!"The crew turned around to look at him. " Dino, are you saying something?" " Yes! Yes! That is the key. We need to find Xavier first. I am sure he would be able to know how to find them."" how do we find him?" Zico asked." I will try finding him my way. You should try yours too." Dino immediately walked out of the hideout leaving Darius a
Darius and his crew were surprised to find themselves in an entirely new world." What is going on?" They were surprised. They saw Irrisia who was also looking lost. Suddenly they heard a sound.[ Ting! ][Task: Find Max; Task Reward; $400,000]" I think we need to find Max and fast." Eddy said, as he looked at his phone." How do we do that? It is not like we know where the fuck he is." Amy replied.They all looked at Eddy. “Why are you looking at me? I don't know, I have anything to work with. So, you all would have to think of a way out without me coming to the rescue." " Right, let's try my gym house. I am sure that would be where Max would go first if he was in this world. He would go to my gym house first." They all followed Darius as they walked to his gym house. " Woah! I can't believe this existed." Amy exclaimed going through some files on the table " Amy, check the CCTV for me and try to see if there is anything out of the ordinary," Darius commanded.Amy sat down and st
" See, we don't have time. The more you stay in here the more we are in danger. We need to find a way out of all of this." Max said, feeling weak." Zico, how do we get out of here? Do you have any plans?" They all looked at him." I don't know right now but one thing I am sure of is that Zaco, shades, and Xavier are coming into this world because they knew you all would be here right now." Zico looked at their faces.Zico’s revelation about the impending danger intensified the urgency among the group. Zico, still wiping the blood off his face, spoke with a sense of gravity, "We're trapped in Shade's illusion, and the longer we linger, the more dangerous it becomes. We need to find a way to break free before Zaco, Shades, and Xavier arrive."Darius, ever the strategist, took charge, "We can't wait for them to catch us off guard. Let's gather information, assess our surroundings, and figure out the weak points of this illusion. There has to be a way out."As they began to look through
The crew now a whole again find themselves back in Max's Mansion. " Woah! It was good while it lasted. I think we need to prepare for finding Shades and his minion." Darius said triumphantly." Not now Darius. I need to relax and heal up. I don't know why I feel like shit." Max said looking exhausted.Irrisia quickly ran to his side. " Take all the rest you need babe. I think we can handle this on our own." Max was taken to a room to rest and feel safe. " I think we need to plan our way out of this. It is until a matter of time before shade knew we are back in this realm." Darius sat down on the sofa." I can't believe we are still having to deal with Zaco and his problems." Irrisia sighed as she watched Max disappear into the nearest room. Dino and Zico walked back in and were surprised to see all of them. " What happened with your coms? I called in severally but you weren't answering.” Zico asked looking at their faces."It's a long story. Do you have any updates on the Shade's
" Aah!!" the shout of Max had the whole crew running towards his room. Irrisia looked at him " What is going on Max? You scared us." Max looked at every one of them, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to scare you. I just had a bad dream."" You had a dream? You want to tell us what it is about?" Dino asked." Dreams ain't real. I don't believe in that shit." Eddy said." Can you keep quiet!" Irrisia sounded irritated by Eddy's voice." Care to tell us what it was all about?" Dino pressed further." I dreamt the world fell into chaos. It felt so real." He said and looked into their faces." I told you….I told you it is stuff like this. You just need to listen to me when I am saying this." Eddy said, and angrily left the room.Irrisia smiled, "Everything is going to be fine. You just need to calm yourself and get enough rest. I believe you staying in the other world must have done a lot for you. You need to calm down Max." "I am sorry I bothered you. I just felt so scared." Max added.The cr
As they secretly entered Zaco's hides, Max gave out an instruction to every one of them " Listen up guys. We don't need to kill except when necessary and remember, we need them alive."They all agreed and as they were about to disperse, Shades emerged from the shadows. " I don't know what makes you think you can win this battle, Max. If you look around you are outnumbered."Darius looked around them and saw many civilians dressed in a soldier uniform " What did you do? You monster!." "Hahaha. You are a fool if you think you can defeat us now. I alone have the power to determine who wins this battle." Shades replied, looking satisfied with what he was seeing. "Attack!." He commanded.The soldiers all came at Max's crew. " Don't let any harm come to any of them." Max instructed." All we need is to catch Shades, once we do. We are going to force him to release the people from his spell." Eddy shouted.As the soldiers closed in, Max and his crew engaged in a strategic battle, aiming to
