The list of cities the results showed varied from G, A, C-city, and five others in-between, all where the “couples” reside. They never strayed away from D-city yet managed to stay away from it during the course.
The creepy part was that each match was a spouse who varied in gender and age. Their ages in G-city from centuries ago as an old couple never strayed and all showed about the same. So was the way their gender or age gaps interchanged.
An exaggerated example of this would be the fifth couple on the roster. The couple is the last Caucasian on the list and what’s unique about their tandem is the glaring age gap they have from each other. The seventh in the list played with racial combinations. The eight wanted to come back as an old couple but with racial differences from each other. The variation goes on.
The interval between how long each couple lived in the city they chose differed by a factor Min-Ain can only guess, but it ranged from

Upon waking, looking like a reminder of Eldrics godchildren he doted on, they sat in the dining room to start eating.Amidst the chewing, Eldric started their conversation with, “Seems like your eyes have deteriorated into dry balls of sand.”“I’ve had worse,” Min-Ain replied as he continued blinking his watery eyes. “Though I never thought I’d be doing so much reading in one day.”“As we always say, you will never get used to it, but you would probably experience tired wakefulness that you’ll be numb to the pain of not sleeping,” Eldric said poetically amidst chewing. “Mind if I ask about that file you sent me?”The boy looked at him nodding. “I’m not surprised.”“Were you aware of the things you sent me? I can understand most of the documents related to D-city and G-city, but a whole search file of people unrelated to ‘Dimension Pocket&rsqu

“Reason why I’m heading over. No point justifying things through a video call. Anything can be hidden in this matter, though I doubt she’d keep anything under the rug.“Do your work, I can’t let this matter slip, but the rest can move on as they should.” Prof. Tenorio said with a finality in his voice.Eldric recognized this tone, he knew Prof. Tenorio would never sleep in relaxation by the end of this day, and all they could do was walk forward. Or, at least, his side of the project.The last seconds of their conversation ended with Eldric telling Prof. Tenorio to call his husband, reminding him not to wait for a five-minute voice message about missing their anniversary, reminiscent of that one time a year ago. Scoffing at the memory, Prof. Tenorio ended their call and then let himself nap. They still have fifteen minutes till Northwoods.His trip from sending supplies to A-city, and having a brief conversation with th

The grip of the unknown fear that swept through the building seemed to linger and stink that he had to suppress his urge to show disgust as he saw the hall where the damage and casualty happened. He asked where the Primer now was after the incident but received a blow to the gut once Reina said, “I had to pull the plug because everything in the room was going out of control.”Nerves sprouted from his neck as he suppressed the rage. A sliver of regret crept into his mind as his practiced patience tried lowering the flames that simmered in him. The casual way Reina said it to him was what he expected but not something he could get used to or forgive.Slowly taking his breath in, he said. “Good, quick thinking. Though I doubt this matter would’ve been handled less grotesque, I presume the events that led to this decision were dire.“Your actions are not without question for morality, but who am I to put you on the scale. Perhaps the on

Decades have gone as the remnants of F-city continued to deteriorate at a speed nature has been set in, slow but precise. The inclusion of weather and the test of time. Many skyscrapers crumbled into half of what they used to be. Or end up becoming like skeletons, bare metal structures trying to reach for the skies.These buildings now look like poles, layered over each other by disasters passing by. Parts of the city have now fully grown wildlife or are barren with dead plants and forgotten establishments at random all around. Easily could be described as bald patches on an already old mans thinning hair.Areas of the outskirts have now succumbed to sand and nothing but the eroding ability of nature to suffice. If one would walk, leading inward makes for quite a “majestic” setting when structures now hold gardens of their own, either overgrown from their unkempt yards or planted unintentionally from seeds swept by the winds.Dull days remain the onl

Imago did not expect this. Usually, the robot would only let itself waste the hour until the end. The end was near, and no effort would bring them back.“Hey,” Imago said. “Happy sleeping?”“Sleep? Did I take a nap in the middle of the day again?” The robot expressed a peppy voice from the concern it felt. “How unfortunate. I’ve been experiencing it these days without much thought to fixing it. Perhaps I should ask the mechanics to look at me. Again.”“No need,” Imago quickly said. Deeply looking at the robot before saying. “The mechanic has looked you up while you were sleeping.”“Convenient! What did they say?” It asked, but the words it spoke were slow and toning down. Like it was losing the juice of its battery in a painfully sluggish manner.“They’re looking up a new part for this...” Imago suddenly pointed at the part where the core is,

Chapter 18Sunrise is a sight to behold in the city, surrounded by skyscrapers of varying heights. Each one beholds the light from the East and spreads them across the sky, contrasting the dim interior lights of the ones who reside on the ground compared to those living on higher floors.The tint of red overflows and colors the skies into a lighter violet that becomes blue, signifying a new day, but it hasn't happened yet. Rays of sunlight have not peeked through the nooks in between structures. At the hour this scenario takes place, comfortable darkness still wrapped each life due to the coming dawn.Bustling business lessened at this point of the day and working hours of the graveyard shift. For these works at this hour of work, they’re excited to escape to the comforts of their bed, excitedly awaiting the ambrosia of rest.Amidst the sea of silence, blanketed by mid-wake, a black car passed through the streets and arri

“Ye-yes.” Eldric lightly said, then realized he was slowly leaning to the back of his chair and straightening his back. Reminding him of his mother to stay attentive, delivered in a nagging manner. Something about how Izobra looked at people naturally convincing themselves to follow her every word without sounding conceited. "Could we take firsthand accounts of any recent visits both of you have done into the north-west sector, and if there were any reported incidents of the Task Force in presence"The couple started to tell their itinerary like it was only yesterday. Of course, the details included are not as obsessively absurd, but enough to make anyone who heard them feel like they have such exceptional minds able to maintain minute points of their day. Most of their activities in that sector started half a year after the incidents began, with only a few months difference. According to their records, as supplemented by Min-Ain.The kid, in his mind, sile

“...-urther wait means we might have a big one coming. Is this report reliable? The data says it’s going to borderline pass a Secunda Radius 2. Hey? It’s my first to encounter an SR2 in the city distri-...” “This isn’t the first time an SR2 incident happened, but within the city proper? Thiss will not bode well, especially for us.” Whispered Eldric. On the other end of the earpiece he could hear Min-Ain typing rapidly. “How far does the area go? Would it reach us?” “According to the report from the Wavelength team, the area of effect ends five kilometers from the ****,” Min-Ain answered, aggressive typing continues. “Setting those boundaries aside, the likeliness that a Primer will appear and enter the company’s premises is extremely high. Eldric, you need to evacuate that area instead of staying in the—” Cut off by a loud static while the earpiece started to ring in Eldrics ears as he felt a sudden surge of electricity pass through
