RESURGENT-SYSTEM: Survive the Beasts The Maze Test
Terranova: (speaking aloud in Ethan's head) "They are going to demand for a face scan after your thumbprint. Ethan, in those moments you may experience a high pitch whistling sound and it is going to be painful due to my presence in you." Ethan's brows knitted in deep thoughts, he replied with a whispering tone "then shut down instead and reboot afterwards. I know you have shut down once, so I believe you can do it again. Do it now." "Negative, Ethan. Please endure throughout the process. If you don't, you are going to be taken into a lab for a scan and I have been studying the lab ever since we got here. They drug the sickly ones to death. Ethan, the drug used is very deadly, you may not survive it. Do your best to suppress the pain and do not scream." Terranova warned with an absolutely determined tone. "Alright. Quiet now, I'll try. It was cool not hearing from you for some time now. I really missed feeling human," he grumbled whisperingly "I feel like a robot. Jesus!" And excla
RESURGENT-SYSTEM: Survive the Beasts Tell us who you are
Ethan grinned annoyed at his command in a split second and turned his face aside to summon courage within because he had a slight fever recalling what Terranova had said to him earlier regarding the face scan. "What happened? How long have I been asleep?" Isabell asked with wrinkles on her forehead, feeling worried as she examined her skin, feeling pains all over but with no visible pores to tell that what was above her did pricked her skin."Congratulations, Isabell. You are now officially qualified to settle in D.C. United, at least until your fate is decided by the factions after the must have shortlisted names for next match in the arena." Peter explained and drew near to Ethan who was now lying on the bed after Isabell had stood up from it "it is going to prickle a little bit, Ethan, you have to endure as your friend did. You look pretty much agitated." He muttered tilting his head down with eyes on Ethan, he glimmered. Isabell stood adjacent to Ethan and kept watching him with
RESURGENT-SYSTEM: Survive the Beasts Panel at the bar
Isabell looked Ethan in the eye with her eyebrows lifted as she folded her arms waiting for him to say something because he kept shutting his eyes and using the tip of his fingers to press hard the center of his nose feeling dizzy. That was unlike how she behaved when she stepped down from the bed, she was really bent on hearing him. When he became aware that they were both expecting him to say something, he lowered his eyebrows and shrugging, he exclaimed, "What?" "Don't give me that look, Ethan. Why aren't you answering and why are you suddenly silent?" Isabell questioned while Peter kept waiting patiently, Terranova: "Ethan you have to say something so they could trust you." "What do you expect me to say?" Ethan exclaimed and shrugged with puffy face, and when he realized that Peter and Isabell laid their eyes on him with a strange stare, "umm... Okay, I am having a little bit of headache since I got here but I felt it is necessary I keep it to myself. I think that was probably
RESURGENT-SYSTEM: Survive the Beasts Fury of the betrayed
"There you are!" The lady exclaimed as she drew closer and halted in the middle of the other four — it appears that all factions have similar uniform design, only that each uniform color differed from each other. Ethan looked so gentle when he sat on the stool and it was no surprise that he could assume different personality at the same time. He was neither introvert nor an extrovert, clearly an ambivert. "Pick up the earpiece on the table and fit it in your ears. We want every bit of our conversation with you from this point to be private." "Hello", Ethan greeted to ensure they could hear him after placing the earpiece on his left ear "So, what questions do you have for me?" Ethan asked calmly but with a clearly bold look on his face: fearless to the core. "Now that is more like it. He seems special." The lady at the middle asserted glancing at those with her. "I am special, literally. So, I was thinking the guy who just scolded my new friend, Peter, would be the first to ask ques
RESURGENT-SYSTEM: Survive the Beasts Fist of Vengeance
"What is it, Ethan?" Isabell asked him the moment she noticed he was angry. At this point they were both standing right next to Peter in the front row and watching as two youths fight in a boxing ring. The crowd cheered greatly whilst Ethan replied Isabell, saying,"That's my friend who betrayed me along with the guy I should be calling my best friend." "Arnold you mean?" Isabell asked the second she recalled he mentioned something like that at the table in Deer Creek Diner when he was talking to Sissy and as Ethan nodded, she said, "so which one is Parker and which one is Arnold?" She asked because there were two people fighting themselves in the boxing ring. "That's Parker, the one on blue shorts. I need to find Arnold, he should be here somewhere." Ethan said rolling his eyes in different directions. "Great! And he is clearly beating up the other guy." Isabell exclaimed, stroking her forehead. "C'mon Sam! Deck him!" Peter yelled at Sam who was being beaten up by an opponent Pe
RESURGENT-SYSTEM: Survive the Beasts Rage
"C'mon, attack me!" Ethan yelled to spur him. They both started throwing punches in a matter of seconds and the blaring in the crowd increased. "Ethan!" Isabell yelled as Parker punched him in the face his nose bled. "C'mon. Are you going to back up?" Parker kept bragging and hopping backwards as the referee intervened ringing the bell to end round one. Ethan spat on the floor and it was all red, he lifted his eyes in anger and staring at Parker who was resting on the other edge of the boxing ring to get himself ready for round two, he muttered, "what the f*ck Terranova... Why are you dormant?" Terranova: "What? I thought you were going to handle this?" "You what!" Ethan shook his head in frustration. Terranova: "don't yell at me, I thought this was a family issue and besides you never asked for my help." "You mean if someone is about to kill me you won't help untill I ask? F*cking do something whenever there is a threat against me. I thought that's the reason you are here in

"Really?" Ethan halted and turned to look at her, shyly he said, "am I the only one you trust?""Yes, of course, you are!" She exclaimed and shrugged with brows lifted high "That means you are saying I am your best friend?" "You have no idea." She said, looking away unimpressed and having her arms folded, he knew she was not happy with him from her sudden gestures. "Look, I am sorry. Even if everyone knows I was angry back there, what about you? I mean I let you down, I should have listened to you. I'm sorry", he said remorsefully with an inaudible tone and a repentant gesture, wrapped his arms around her, "truth is, I regret my actions beating up Parker in that manner." "Okay..." Isabell loosened up and turned to him, ignoring whether passerbys were staring at them "I forgive you. You have to promise you won't beat them up that way again.""I promise." He said immediately. "Then you'd also forgive them and visit Parker." "Ooo come on!" Ethan exclaimed disagreeing with her on th
RESURGENT-SYSTEM: Survive the Beasts Compelled
"I am sorry but I have no idea where this guy is, because he suddenly left and it is going to take me a whole lot of time and effort to look for him. You do know that this D.C United is very vast? So if you need him so gently you're going to pay me $10 to find him and I'm going to do that." Peter bargained. It was obvious that nothing in DC United was free whatever you going to do for anybody you must find a way to get them pay for it, even as no one is going to do anything free for you and the place is a fight for survival by all means. "Just do it for me I'm going to give you $8. You know I am also going to help you whenever you are in need of help and besides I have helped you ones." The doctor said. "Whatever, send the money." Peter said. "Deliver the job first, Peter. We can't leave D.C United, so you gonna get your money once you are done. It's not as though I am going to escape. So, get to it." Dr. Muppet rumbled. Peter sighed and left afterwards. "Ethan. You know you shoul

"And why should we believe you?!" Someone screamed Madison looked at Loretta, and then at Kim but Loretta spoke immediately to support her before anyone else standing by her "You should believe her. She is telling the truth. I have seen it and I am part of the few who are not in agreement with the killing though we have to accept our fate of alignment in order not to be silenced. You know the punishment of not abiding by the rules here in the capitol hill? Ours is even worse." Lorette stressed. "And I happen to be a part of those who are not in support but I have to go by authority and play by the rules. Thanks to a survivor in the midst of it all, his name is Ethan and he is standing right here with us all. You may have heard of him or you may not have. I wish to give him the chance to tell us more about what is going on. Ethan please." Kim added and stepped back with gestures to get Ethan to speak. Ethan spoke convincingly and after he was done, almost all the members of the amit

Convinced
"Nothing is going to happen to him. The beasts won't go into the restaurant, I do not believe they will. Your family are survivors that is one thing I believe. You are a survivor and I will try my best to be quick so that they will not send you in until all this is done. Besides, there was an exemption on your case. They said you are going to be placed in position as the manager, remember?""With the way things are going down here, I do not think it will be considered anymore. There has been a change of plan ever since you were away. Dr Muppet didn't tell you he is now capable of being shortlisted as a candidate for the game? There is no exemption anymore. The announcement was made a few days ago." "Hmm, alright let us take that as a means of doing everything we have to do quick. Trust me, I have this believe that we are both going to find ourselves together again. Please, Isabell, let us go in. And please be with me in heart. Heart to heart, Isabell. Alright?" Ethan said fondly of p

"You have to stop, Isabell, whatever you are trying to do, you just have to stop. I am not like the factions, Madison is not like...." Ethan took a deep breath and exhaled, then he said calmly as he placed his hands on her arms "Madison is not like the factions. I know you do not like hearing her name but she is not what you think she is. She is not like her father. There are a lot of them like her in the capitol hill. Many are not even aware of what is going on in D.C. United here. You should not turn your back now. Madison is not even doing any of this because she loves me or have an attraction for me. She is fighting for a greater good, which is to have the killing come to an end and I have seen it in her eyes and all over her that she is desperate to stand against her father and to bring justice to the people. I know you are doing all these because you love me and want me to be yours. But as much as she may act this way, she is not. Put yourself in her shoes and understand. She sh

Isabell raised her hand immediately in a way that made Madison clear her throat and was like "okay, who else is willing to come in with her?""I will." Arnold said lifting his hand. "No, not you Arnold. I don't need you to come now. I know why. Max, Greg? Which one of you is willing to come in?" Ethan asked thoughtfully and it was obvious that he does not want to lose Arnold as he has done his friend Parker. "I will go." Max said before Greg could. "Very well then. We have Isabell and Max." Ethan said. Ethan wanted to stop Isabell but he felt it was going to be pointless and he was not also ready for another long hour of conflict and attempts to convince her to accept his apologies. He knew Isabell to be a die hard and incapable of listening when her mind is made up in whatever she has in view, despite the fact that she was obedient to him on several occasions."Okay, that will be enough at the moment. Your assignment, you and Max will be simple. Whatever we discuss and whatever ne

Insiders
Madison whispering, said to Ethan, "who is she exactly?" "She is my friend. Why?" Ethan said with a guilty stare. "C'mon Ethan, don't play around. I know what I am asking you and am sure you know as well. Tell me, are you two in any relationship because she loves you from what I see and she is jealous that I am here. This is not going to work out if we are not all focused on one thing." "It is complicated, Madison. Trust me, I can not start talking about it for now. I promise to let you know what is going on sooner. For now, just bear with me and try not to take whatever she says or does into heart. I can't lie to you that I like her a lot but I am not just sure of what to say right now. It is my fault and you can count me as one to be blamed but not her. Please, alright?" Ethan muttered quietly while glancing at Isabell who stood with arms folded at a distance watching him talk with Madison. Madison was quiet for a minute before saying "you had better figure it out. I don't want

Why trust her
"Alright, I will let my friends know that you are going to help us in this way. I believe it is for the best. Lysbia is going to need a balance again in society and I believe together it is going to be done by us." Ethan finished and they both continued moving. "Wow, this place exists?" Madison exclaimed when they entered Dr Muppet Puppet's room. "Yes, it does." Ethan said and kept looking around.."So many books in this library." Madison said looking very much amazed at the sight of Dr Muppet Puppet's books "Yes, it does. Don't touch anything. Dr Muppet!" Ethan instructed her and then called out with a loud voice. There seems to be no one in here. So he turned and said to Madison, "stay in this room, I will be right back." Ethan left through the front door and shut it on his way out. He first hurried to the house he bought when he was about leaving D.C united. When the taxi driver pulled in front of his house and he stepped out anticipating to see Isabell, the system spoke,Terr

Terranova: "Sir, you have reached full system capacity. Welcome back from static mood." "Static mood? Everything was blank Terranova? I was dead you mean." Terranova: "practically yes. You died but you can not die so long as I am in you. Which is why you should rather call it static mood because that is what it is from now on." "Whatever mood it is, please do not do it again. Do you know how hurt I feel in my head?" Terranova: "I can't tell, though I think it is for the best. You are only feeling dizzy I believe." "This isn't a feeling of dizziness. I know what it feels like when I am dizzy. Hello, Madison." Ethan said as he turned his neck around to see Madison standing like she's frozen. "Why are you frightened?""Excuse me? Why am I frightened?! Damn Ethan, you just came from the dead! No one does that! At least not anyone I have known except Jesus Christ. You don't expect me to be cool, do you? Damnit!

The Uprising
"Well I was in The laboratory not quite long ago and he walked in and spoken your manner that's made me suggest that you have given him a higher authority than myself. Why should I tell him that I am to deliver an the report of Ethan's test to you myself but still he insisted that he was the one to deliver it and with every amount of Allah creating in his gut!" Madison sputtered with raging eyes. "Well I asked him to be sure he gets it directly to me I never knew you were going to be there." "I suppose he had already told you that I was at the lab when he arrived? Didn't he?" Madison asked. "Well he never did he did not tell me anything about your presence there. And if he had done what should that matter to me? All I needed was this test here. And it appears that we might be in more trouble from what is written here about that young man. Have you looked at what the test says about Ethan Hills?" "Of course I have. And I do not think you should be threatened by it. Whatever it sugg

Disputing with my dad
"He does not only show signs of an Amity he is also executing potentials of a parrhesia-dauntless. I think this guy is underestimated and he has so much potentials than anyone of Us. Do you buy enemies know who he is before now?" Kim asked with eyes on Madison. "No." She denied. And shifted her gaze from Kim to Ethan who was lying with his eyes still close. "I thought you have an idea who he is before now and if you don't why are you so interested in him?" Kim asked again. "Why should I not be interested when my father is also so much interested in him? I believe whoever my dad has his eyes on is someone worth paying attention to that is why I am here." Madison muttered as she touched Ethan's hands without even realizing she was doing it. Kim looked at her and sensed she was lying about not knowing him. "I see! You have justified yourself for being so interested in him. But forgive me to ask do you even know his name?" "Ethan. His name is Ethan Hills." Madison replied with a low
