Drake's eyes reddened as he stared at the empty restaurant.

"He took everything!" Drake yelled.

Anger consumed him as he found out not even a grain of rice was left.

Everything had been taken by the soldier who also possessed a system.

"How did all this happen? I couldn't even fight him!" Drake said.

The voice of his system echoed in his head as he asked that question.

[The spatial manipulator is one system upgrader who, unlike all other upgraders, has one single goal.]

[His only goal is to accumulate and store foods in his spaces which only he can access.]

Hearing this, Drake was angry. He didn't care; all he wanted to know was what one person was doing with so many foods.

"I saw what it looked like in his store; it was so wide, and there were thousands of foods," Drake said.

As he spoke, he could only salivate, picturing all those foods.

He had just started to eat after a long time of starvation, and the food was taken.

"I must find him, I must confront him and get all the foods bac

    Drake and Elisa huddled together, their eyes were fixed on the worn pages of the diary which was spread out before them. They read each page carefully in anticipation as they took note of the details that we're contained within it. Each word was seen as though it could be offering a potential clue to the location of the facility where the button was rumored to be hidden.According to the owner of the diary, the one who was not only a part of the experiment but also was the one who brought about the idea of the button, The experiment was not completed in any of the facilities they had thought. The ones on their list were the facilities where the experiment began. It happened that after each failed attempt, they would move over to one which they assumed was well equipped and at a more conducive environment. However, after several trials, they discovered that there were certain conditions which would be more suited for the experiment. And for the sole purpose of the experience, A speci

    The Diary

    The night was already far gone when Drake and Elisa made their way back from their encounter with the mysterious man whom they have come to know as a great scientist. Not just any scientist but one who was at the forefront of the whole project that led them to this very place where humanity has found itself. The conversation they had with this man went long enough. The discovered a whole lot by listening to the man speak for almost two hours.They learned that the button was created to put an end to the effect of the experiment instantly. Yes! the button was that effective. It is no wonder the it seemed to be so important to everyone who knew about it. For some reason, the man who had claimed to not just be a big part of the experiment but also the brain behind "the button" equally, said he has no idea about the actual location of the button. According to him, they must have done something to not just him but every other colleague of his who was sidelined. However, he gave them his

    The Revelation

    Drake and Elisa set off in opposite directions, their footsteps echoing through the empty corridors as the moved in a hurry to be able to cover more grounds before there was any interruption. It is not strange for them to assume that there would be some kind of interruption at some point definitely. It has become a regular occurrence in their daily lives now especially when it has to do with the quest to find a solution to the apocalypse. It always felt as though all the forces. of the entire universe were gunning for them. At this point, it is safe to say that the had a target right on their back. In fact, it would be like an error if they finished from NeoGen lab in peace and left without any kind of interference or interruption. As they went from one room to another, they realized the entire place was almost empty. they both found nothing but dust and probably rats running around. Elisa might have been the one who saw the rat,and as much as she wants to tell herself that it is

    It seemed like the journey was endless and the road was stretching at every turn. Elisa was becoming tired in the car as they embarked on yet another journey in search of answers. The sun hung low in the sky, a journey they started since morning was gradually dragging till nightfall as they drove towards NeoGen Labs. They drove in silence for hours. They were talking a lot at the beginning of their journey, but it got to a point where they both ran out of things to talk about, the fact that they were already exhausted didn't make it easy for them to bother about the silence anyway. Along the line, they would say one or two things to each other, but it was not enough to maintain a conversation.As night fell, they finally arrived at their at their destination. They packed their car in a place a bit far from the main building."I think this is good enough. With this, it can't be seen easily."

    NEO GEN LAB

    The night seemed to be very stretched out before Drake and Elisa. They had decided to find a relatively safe place to spend the night. There was no way they could go back to where they came from, not unless the next clue points them towards that place.. They sat in the car in silence both thinking about the same thing but not speaking up, their minds were full of not just the familiar feeling of disappointment but also many questions.Drake ran a hand through his hair, his brow furrowed in thought as he stared out into the darkness. "I can't believe they destroyed the institute," he muttered, his voice was filled with frustration obviously. "All the answers that may have been in that institute, everything has gone up in flames.. everything"Beside him, Elisa sat in silence, listening to him speak. She was equally frustrated. she could not imagine that all their effort was in vain. "It is like they are always one step ahead of us at every turn," she said to Drake, She sounded like she

    Drake smiled back at Elisa. He felt a bit better than he was feeling a moment ago. "Alright, shall we?"Elisa returned his smile again and then nodded in agreement.They began to walk along the narrow path. They tried to walk as fast as they could in order to leave that premises as soon as possible. The needed to get to the car early enough. Drake changed his mind on walking all the way there. They had parked the vehicle some meters away for two reasons: firstly, it was to avoid calling attention to themselves, secondly it was to protect the car. Right now Drake is thankful that he made that decision earlier because with what had just happened, there was no telling what those men would have done to the car if they had seen it. "Hold on, we can't walk, let me carry you. Running will get us there in a minute." He carried Elisa on his back and ran towards the direction of the car.As they approached the vehicle, Drake's mind was occupied and a bit troubled with thoughts of their next

    Begining Of The End

    Drake and Elisa burst out of the building coughing so much that their chests were hurting so badly. Elisa would have probably collapsed if she was the one who had to carry her own weight herself. On the other hand, Drake got his determination from the fact that he felt responsible for Elisa, otherwise he also might have collapsed. But here he was trying to be strong for both of them. The strength he got from the system could not possibly get him through moments like this by itself. They were both breathing heavily, their hearts were pounding so fast...it felt like they were threathing to pop out through their mouths because of the rush and the fact that they had to hold their breath at some point in there. The were gasping for air, they both leaned against a large tree along the lonely path where they had stopped.

    The Button II

    Drake removed the flashdrive and placed it in a plastic envelope he found on the desk. He put it in his backpack and was set to leave. "I think we are done here. Let us get going" he said to Elisa. As the were about to open the door, they started to hear sounds coming from the outside. It was not a loud one. It was like faint footsteps approaching the building. They both stopped and looked at each other. "What is that... can you hear that?" Elisa asked Drake. She was sure she was not the only one who heard it, because as faint as it was sounding, it was quiet audible enough for someone on this kind of mission to hear. "I can hear it too" Drake confirmed. They decided against opening the door immediately. Instead, they went to one of the windows which faced the main entrance to peep. "I don't see anything. Do you?" Drake whispered to Elisa. "No I don't... not yet!" Elisa replied. She got am idea to try and scan through the walls. "I can see. we have company." She said "What do y

    The Button

    It is safe to say that the silence was loud. Drake and Elisa could not say a word at that very moment. A thousand and one thoughts were flying through their minds. For some reason, it felt like the got the answer they have been looking for, yet they know quite well that the answer was not there. "Something was indeed wrong. Something was going on down here. Something quite scary" Drake finally spoke. I wish the video explained some parts in more detail though. What was that experiment all I have about in the first place? what were they trying to do?"Drake said like he was overwhelmed with the entire situation."The button he spoke about... do you know what he meant by that?. Elisa asked. "do you think it could be a metaphor or he was referring to an actual button?" she added. "I do not really understand everything, but I think it is an actual button. At that stage there was no need to be using metaphor. He mentioned facilities. I believe that there are no other facilities involve
