"You haven't paid me for all those scrapes I've gotten you out of Rex, my advice, is don't bite the hand that fed you." He patted Rex's cheek. Rex felt like he was trying to swallow a spoonful of sand and wearing an itchy sweater at the same time. He didn't want to get on his benefactor's son's bad side either. But he didn't want to see Horacio getting hurt every time he went near Dominic. "Are you coming?" Horacio said....Maks stuffed his bag with clothes and toiletries. He hung his backpack and his system glitched. "This time you really came prepared." He said. The room was big, there was a new table at the center and Melvin was doing a quality check on the new speakers and a VR Game. Jessica was excited and danced on her tip-toes. "I love you!""Me too." She hugged him and he blushed.[ Kill Cancer ] [ Right now? ] He was ruminating about if that was just a hoax.[ Do you accept this quest?] He tapped the answer and moved on, he was waiting for a bus because his dad took
"Now, it's personal." His forearm extended as an octopus's tentacle but his fist was intact but blue and orange and he he punched him towards the shoreline and Cancer pulled up when the hermit crabs crawled all over him in hundreds folds. "Ah!" Their pincers clicked voraciously. The army of hermit crabs clinched on Cancer's body and he yelped as his pain scale escalated from 'moderate' to 'worst pain possible', even though he could blow up any living organism into smithereens, he was in no condition to do it. He was getting buried in myriads of crabs and his first instinct was to dunk himself inside the water. Maks turned on the other assassins, he actually called for backup and he was absolutely rabid like a cornered rat, they came at him in tens, he chucked a head off his body, his hand turned orange and blue and he clutched another's arm paralyzing him with his poison dart frog toxins. The next tried to stab him with a katana, he grabbed the end and swatted the butt on against h
"He's going into anaphylactic shock." She said. "How do you know?""He just said so." He said with an edge of frustration. The crowd watching and screaming 'help him!' were only making the atmosphere and the situation worse. "Take 'im to a hospital!" Maks recalled the steroids he saw in his pockets. He saw that his hand was lagging at the can of pills in his pocket. Steroids. His mind was trying to make the connections again. 'a risk of cancer and autoimmune diseases increasing and the chances of the patient developing food allergies ranging from moderate to severe are second to none.' He checked his pocket and read the label of the can of pills quickly. They were Cortiso-steroids and she gave Rex the smallest dose as possible and he gasped. Meg was in pieces. She looked like she might go into shock as well. The crowd clapped while he recovered. Some of them were harried when he passed them quizzical looks. "Rex, are you okay?" She said. He was wheezing but he managed to nod. "T
Maks kept up with her, and she grinned. As they hiked to the river. "Why is Meg being probed?""That was over hours ago and Rex can't talk." "You two poisoned Rex Rodriguez?" She poked."It was an accident." He said. "Meg would never do that...unless of course, she knew and just forgot." Watching the river currents. The med park was scanty. "Artemis found her lip balm and put it on her lip. "You could use this." "No thanks." He muffled when she swabbed his chapped lips. He thought this was the equivalent of being judo-flipped. "What are we looking for?" "Nothing, I just presumed you should go out more." She said while screwing the cover shut. "We're going to have karaoke.""You mean karate?" He was stiff-necked now.Artemis laughed. "You're so funny, man." "I left my homework because of you." He said. She stared at Maks as though he were talking gibberish. She fiddled with her swiss army knife. She wore a jean jacket, a green tube dress, and red baseball boots."Okay, let
The isle was rocky with many impressive, She hopped down and Maks stepped up. He saw her grinning and frowned. "What?" "Nothing." She said and he plucked seaweed off his head. The water pushed against the sandy shore where their footprints were. There were no birds in the sky, the ones that passed by hardly lingered unless the load they were carrying were too heavy. He pulled out their gear and sized up the ropes. He wore a yellow jacket and refrained from using the torchlight to conserve the battery. He swallowed hard at the peak of the high cliff, a crevice beneath that looked like it could go on forever and ever. He could feel the cool breeze blowing out from the entrance. He climbed up the hill using his spider powers and he gazed at the plateau and the resilient plants breaking through the surface. He needed to get a bird's eye view of the entire island. It looked like a puma's head with its mouth open, trying to swallow a ball which was the second isle, little to no green
"It's April the 5th." Maks let out. She blinked when he turned on the lights.Artemis noticed that he was being a bit too harsh. Sometimes, he was a bit too judgemental."April? I was here since 30th March.""What's your name?" Maks said."It's Harriett." She said weakly. They found a safer spot, although not big enough but safer to rest in, away from the bacterial filled water, frankly, the walls looked like they had oil spilled on them, they would continue their journey later. If only there was a way out and if only they could ration their meals. He was worried about his classes, his gig that he was going to miss. All because she was dragging him to do things that he wouldn't originally do on his own on a regular basis. She would be disappointed if she found out that he was just living off her and she wouldn't stop dragging him until god knows when as Harriet would put it. He wasn't in touch with his emotions, because they wouldn't solve anything. Even if Meg prodded him to talk a
"8 of us, we were separated from experts after the reopening and we happened to miss everyone along the way.""And then you got attacked." Artemis said. "The attack was what caused the tumble in the first place. Unfortunately, I was caught up under the rocks. Coach seemed to be okay." "Yeah, he left you." Maks let out dryly. "Yep, the least he could have done was get you out of there but he didn't." The hair on their scalps rose at the sound of bats screeching. The noise was reverberating and horrendous. Maks quieted. Voices could be heard in the midst of rushing waters. "That's what I heard?" "Sounds like it is coming from the top. Quick, we can get out while it lasts."Harriet shifted on her good leg. They made an effort to follow the sound of its voice. Artemis lagged under Harriet's weight. They found a crack of light under the underpass. "That's it?" Harriet said and lagged. She let herself down on a rock, massaging her leg, at least it wasn't cold anymore. Just too hot.
They drifted and he rubbed his arms, they felt as though they were going to fall off. Artemis looked back at what she would call Jiang Shi island, (Z*mbie island was already taken.) They were helped by a few people who had a motorized boat. Harriet was unconscious and handled by healthcare professionals. They were hospitalized and he had his shoulders disinfected. ... The authorities had a lot of questions about their whereabouts and the events that took place. Artemis came up with a lot of stories about mountain lions, and the flood, however, Harriett was skeptical about telling them about the Jiang Shi and she went with it. The school heard about their ordeal, the island was closed down for good. But he reckoned there would be some daredevils besides him trying to get on what this was all about. The assistant coach was missing and his body was never recovered. Maks felt small against the official proprietor of Griffin University, Mister Gael Griffith with well-combed grey ha
