Phillip took a deep breath and nodded towards the guards beside him. They opened the door and led him into the building. As they walked past, Phillip could see the design of the building was different from what it displayed outside.As they entered the building, Phillip noticed that there was a large space between the four corners of the building. Trees and other vegetation occupied the area, it was refreshing to see greenery well-kept in such a chaotic setting.They turned a corner which led them to a hallway that stretched for what felt like miles. Eventually, they got to another corner when the guards surrounding him came to a pause.“You’ll need to put this on from here.” One of them said while bringing out a black mask, which he wanted to put over Phillips's head or so he supposed. “What exactly is the point of that?” Phillip asked with a lame expression on his face.“The location of Sir Greyson is confidential and respectfully speaking, you are still an outsider. So please compl
The silence that filled the air sent shivers through the spines of everyone there, including Phillips Circle who could not believe what they had just seen.Perhaps not Christopher but Andrew and Dina were visibly shocked. Their eyes widened in shock and mouths dropped at the sight of Phillip, their Phillip had just murdered someone in front of them.Yes, he was evil, yes he was a menace and yes he was working for the enemy but Philip ended his life without so much as a second thought. The smile he had after was eerie as well, this was a new side they never expected to see.Killing infected when necessary and incapacitating people, that was what they knew him to be capable of. This however was beyond what they had expected.“Everyone, attack!!” Kiara said after suddenly being brought back to reality after seeing Xavier’s body drop to the ground. “Andrew, Chris, get to cover!” Phillip said as he disappeared from their sight. All of a sudden all they could see was the body of guards bei
CHAPTER 32Dina and Andrew tiptoed through the large city, trying their best to stay away from the hidden lights of the watchtowers. They covered a decent amount of ground before finally coming across the more bush part of the settlement: the slums they had passed earlier.They saw some guards but saw no reason to be scared of them since they began to see other residents moving about so they just decided to blend in with the crowd. They had covered themselves up with scarves to hide their identities, especially Phillip. His hair and eye color always stuck out like a sore thumb. They began moving through the slums, they saw people sleeping under the tents and inside the makeshift container houses.However, the more they walked the larger the crowd seemed to become. As they were reaching towards the center they saw a gathering of people surrounding a bonfire. The air around them was one full of cheer and heartiness.It was admirable considering their deplorable conditions. Phillip loo
There was a brief silence that enveloped the room before Phillip finally broke it. “I’m sorry, what do you mean by saving everyone?” He asked, obviously intrigued by what she had just said.“Well Phillip, I know what you are. In fact, I’m just like you.” She said while leaning forward. “You see, just like you I was infected with the virus. When it happened I thought I was going to die, but I started experiencing changes in my body. Would you believe me if I told you I was only 28 years old?” Andrea asked to the surprise of everyone.Aside from her eyes, her skin was wrinkly and soft. The lines on her face whenever she smiled and the gray hair on her head. They all completely went against what Andrea was saying. She probably expected this, as she started explaining her circumstances. “Whenever I use my powers, I get a glimpse into the happenings of the future. The more I use this power, the more it takes a toll on my body. So I try my best to use it sparingly.” She explained to them.
Crap.' Philip thought as he tensed and struggled inside the cage."Don't bother, there's no way for you to move and gather enough force to break through since every part of your body is trapped." The guy said with indifference and with a wave of his hand, Philip was pulled to him."Now that I've captured you, my mission is complete. Now be obedient and let's go." Hearing this, Philip shouted some obscene things, but the guy made it so that sound couldn't escape from the cage.Seeing this, Philip slumped in his binding.'What am I supposed to do? I can't pull my fists back to attack the barrier, and I can't run either.' Philip was at a loss and wanted to pull at his hair. His frustration was understandable. After all, they'd put so much effort into running, but he got captured like this?"Unfortunately, I have to carry you back. Otherwise, I would have gone to kill those pests. After all, we can't have you being distracted when you eventually go and meet the boss. Oh well, I'll just do
Philip stood in the rain without the slightest care of how he was getting drenched. Instead, he simply smiled to himself as numerous thoughts ran through his mind.'It's been around three minutes in reality, but that should have been 7 to 8 hours to me. And I spent all that time practicing my air walk. I think I should move on to the next thing.' When he thought of that, his smile grew. He couldn't wait for when he could test these new skills on something.Dismissing the thought, he focused on his next practice target.'Every action has an opposite reaction. It's the same premise that centers around things like thrusters. Though in my case, recoil.' He thought.Usually, when a gun fires, the bullet moves at incredible speed. However, the force of the ejection also causes the gun to be forced backwards. That's recoil.That's why most people need extensive training before they can use a firearm. If they hold it wrong when they fire, breaking their wrist is not a rare occurrence.What Ph
here am I? That was the first thought Philip had when he woke up. From the bumping sensation he kept feeling, he knew that he was in some sort of vehicle. He also remembered some guy coming to ‘save’ them before he lost consciousness, so he was very concerned.However, he made no effort to open his eyes or stir. Because he could hear two people having a conversation next to him.“This guy seems pretty strong.” The first one said.“Even if he’s a special grade, it’s very impressive that he was able to hold down that many infected on his own.” He continued to say.“That’s right, and with the way he was looking, he barely had any energy left. Boss will be very happy with us when we get back.” The second said with a hint of excitement.Boss? Special grade? Philip saved these two thoughts in his mind and kept listening.“By the way, what do you think sir Kaiser is going to do about those two?” The first one asked and Philip restrained opening his eyes. They must be talking about Andrew and
Nine years had just passed by in the blink of an eye and Christopher was now fourteen years old. He had grown up in the orphanage and had adjusted to life well there, better than he could have possibly imagined in all honesty.He never thought that he would find more peace in an orphanage than his parents own home. It took a while for the boys to get used to him but eventually they began to bond and connect with one another.The orphanage has also began to receive more donations from secret donor, the man did not want any attention. He was only doing it from the goodness of his heart.Everything was going well until that fateful day when they all went to the zoo.“Chris i do not think i have ever been this excited to go to the zoo.” One of the other orphanage kids, Solomon said excitedly.Chris just laughed, he loved to see the joy on his siblings faces whenever they were were experiencing something new.“Mother has been planning this for a long time and it kept getting delayed becaus
