At some point, he fell from the bosom of the silhouette. His arms flailed as his body was pulled down by the gravity of what constituted the ground. Meeting between two solids should've been painful at the height he fell from but all he was met was the never-ending fall.The moment his eyes opened, not showing his body jolting, he was welcomed by the still sleeping faces of his comrade. At least Dr. Munar was asleep and the rest of the escorts are wide awake and alert. A seat up front was Cristian and another escort, Akyl sat beside him while they stayed quiet for the whole ride back to C-city.The remaining time before they entered at least the outer vicinity will be at approximately thirty minutes. He couldn’t believe the company's work in responding to acquiring the second survivor camp, where they were screened and given time to contemplate and be sent to C-city. The current vehicles with them are the two escort jeepneys and that one pickup truck where the captured Primer is tied
“Your side of experience seems like you’ve had a fun time getting to know the affected ones,” Cristian said as he sat up. “The two people affected by the incident on our end felt like they were sought after by the Primers.”“That’s the same thing with us,” Akyl stated. “Perhaps it’s a kind of desirable change in their bodies but the affected ones tended to call out for the Primers of any kind. None would approach unless it’s been hinted or given to them by the others, did you also notice that?”“Not really,” Cristian replied honestly. “At some point, my mind blanked when we got to the area we got hounded by the Primers. Though I did notice that there were specific ones that hunted us down if we had an affected, but they didn’t approach us, only lead one specific Primer.”“They acted like minions or servants of those Primers,” Akyl said, a conviction
Approximately three hours of more sleep was wasted while the Marsdtadts stayed in their room on the first floor of the Penthouse. Both Izobra and Zerkalo spent the time after waking from their long sleep with simple green tea, eggs, and ham, plus a dose of cherry jam on their toast. Pleased with the sleep they missed the previous day, they sent messages to their staff back at the office to continue their rounds on the families they needed to entertain for their “Raise for Reading” campaign. Part of the charity work Izobra organized along with several institutions in G-city that wanted to grant C-cities lack of access for their lower class.“Dear, don’t you think we should be going back home?” Zerkalo asked his wife that sat stock still as he watched her cut his toast into bite-size pieces. “I’m sure they can handle themselves with the information we left them with. Plus, they don’t need to know anything anymore. Ah, please salt my sunny a bit more.”Izobra salted her husband’s sunny s
Dawn peeked through the forever broken roof of Imago and Mirror's home. The plants fully occupy the outside walls, and neighboring houses, making it seem like a creepy land forgotten by time. The cleanliness of their room contrasted greatly with the surrounding nature, where spots on the wall and floor showed where they slept and moved their items and furniture.Today was Imago's maintenances day for the solar generator that they've been using for the majority of the still-working appliances. Though, it's not the activity Mirror intends to fulfill today, while watching Imago sit on the floor and tinker with the machine. Like all days that differed from each, Mirror adjusted their peripheral plans from the time forth to make way for other things they plan to fulfill.The time is nothing either of them kept in the count, despite having the capability to easily gauge when and where they both are. Material is scarce and the access to any kind of programs or facilities of t
Opening the metal doors in sector H level ten to let the maintenance team enter for the annual is the least appealing job Mirror was given by the current “one rule.” Surrounded by fumes and warmth amidst high-end air conditioning, every unit that towered Mirror exuded boring lights as it processed different kinds of programs and applications that monitored the entirety of the city. Just this whole floor that consisted of side-by-side black blocks of artificial intelligence computing every step necessary to the future of F-city, is a cesspool of non-living slaves.There was never a doubt Mirror considered every entity within these black blocks as individuals fit within their limits of robotic calculations for the actions they considered as important, but the human’s built this system to rely upon, like them as androids that should serve or must if permitted. Though, compared to Mirror’s existence with a fitting leeway for their act
Chapter 23Being sat at the very back of a vehicle that looks uncomfortable from the outside but is conveniently padded with enough insulation and cushion inside made Bernice realize the extent of how rich the people she will be involved with once they reach C-city. In her situation, she who was pulled from the flock and into the wolf's den; could be considered unfortunate until it benefits her by chance. That may seem to be the case, but she knew there was more than meets the eye with the compensation she is promised.Every single survivor is given a chance to a new life, granted within the bounds company **** has to offer. None of the civilians questioned how they can do it, but by the seminar or talking to each person in the camp, they are convinced that they would have the choice to recover what they have only in the condition that they hold therapy sessions with several medical personnel regarding the A-city incident.There is so
No amount of embarrassment kids experience could be accounted for unless it’s concerning when people tease them about their love life. Historically, or by statistical quantity, there are more than a handful of children who would rather dismiss it by being disgusted and equal in the amount of those who would happily answer. There are those, of course, who truly think as seriously as when they collect trading cards that are rare in production.Between choosing which of Bernice was in that tier, she was a mix of dismissively disgusted to partially serious like a collector. She viewed asking this question as a benefit to her knowledge. On the scale of having faith in what she knew who her friends are, she would rather experience it to assess it herself, at least in accord to proof. What does she want to expect; regarding her acceptance to the confirmation that it came from her friends? Even if she didn’t wait for them to say it, they were honest enough to say it to he
Waterfall of straight narrative covered by the shallow representation of emotions but steeped in no more but painful truths within the story Bernice spilled was compelling to the records of the doctor who now held his clipboard, scribbling something now and then. Down on the table beside him stood a black rectangular device fit for a hand, a voice recorder, with its light blinking to indicate its activity.A blank expression stayed on the doctor’s face while Bernice spilled water numerous times on the same spot for about half an hour now since she started. There were a few embellishments included in her story, but they were only paused. According to how the doctor determined these mild silly turns, whenever she reverts to her main point, she simply goes about it so matter-of-factly that you can easily dismiss it as nothing.The doctor could easily tell that the only point this story can say is that there are humans from the incident that can, could, and have the capacity to become Pri
