Rodger grew furious, how could Natalie trust someone so blindly? When Natalie left, he walked up to Lucy who was silent. He the bar rod and tried to assure her she would be released soon. Her silence always meant something. She wanted to ask who was going to take the blame? But he had already gone. She was behind the protest along with Xavier. She only did that to reduce the pride of this hospital which had so many foes. In her thought, Xavier bashed in to meet her. She was pleased to see him again. Surely he must have something now to bring her out."How are you doing today" she asked in a low tone."Not good..." He paused and scoffed."Why should you ask such when you Know am worried" he muttered as he curb her palms in his. She smiled."It's taking a little longer" she said annoyed."It's still noon you will be out before evening crouches in" he assured and grinned."Seems you are enjoying it here since I haven't heard your protest against what you were accussed of" he teased as he
They arrived at a place where perhaps some of these drones might be found, it was like old times again, attempting to stop Felix and this time, Alex was doing it for good. Lucy got out first and survey the area if maybe it was clear which it was. Alex jumped down and handed her a gun."When will they get here?" He asked squinting his eyes around due to the smoke."It would take an hour, first let's save the world" she responded with a serious look that made him jest at her, she was acting like a captain who was ready to sweep off the enemy in one count and he was motivated by that. Lucy placed an earpod on and quickly brought out a laptop from the bag she hung. Her eyes searched for the locations of where the drones were when Alex could hear people screaming for help. These two motioned to each other and raced quickly to where the sound was from.There were set of people trapped in a bus which was upside down close by wailing and panting for aid. It had collided with another bus causi
The two men crept pass the robots that were programmed to guard the gate that could lead inside. Alex advised they took the back which they did. This company had sections by sections and to cross by, one has to fight with a lot of aliens which had sighted them from a distance. Once they were done with kicking the badasses, they headed straight to where Anastasia could be found. Surprisedly, the villian wasn't there as he had gone to meet up with governmental agencies. His plans were really cunning as he seems to be the only solution the governments could turn since he claims he knew what caused the invasion of aliens in the country, hence he might be termed a hero but now he just wants to control everything under him and see the world burn. They found Anastasia fixed on a chair which had charges, her eyes were focused on a gadget. She was struggling to break through but no one was hearing her. The place was secured that it was difficult to get in."Let's break in" Alex said since the
The door got opened automatically too as his hands shook wanting to take a look at what was going on, just then the lights went on and his doorbell rang."Is this some kind of joke?" He mused as his hands were shaking. He wondered how vera kept up to this, in a nutshell, he was going to move out of the house because he had a feeling that ghosts or vampires were living in the same house with him, he jerked to reality when the doorbell rang again and he strides to the door to get it opened. He saw Alex standing and staring at him with a devious smile and Mr Williams smiled back."You wanted to see me? Mr Williams" Alex reminded and he nodded welcoming this man inside. He had forgotten that he called Alex over based on Vera's instructions."Make yourself comfortable""Why? We're still mourning over your lost family" Alex mocked indirectly and Mr Williams winced as this man was bringing back old wounds. He was becoming rude all of a sudden and not he's usually prince charming styles, he w
Xavier intended to ring the bells in this place but he got glued to the spot which he stood, that he couldn't move a muscle only his lips could move. He struggled to let lose of this man's power which was stronger than his, however he couldn't come out of the spell. He watched this man take Natalie in his arms gently, his dark hair which were long covered his face that it made it hard for Xavier to see him clearly, usually, Xavier could tell who it was even though they had mask on but this man must have cast a spell not to be recognized. He didn't waste much time as he had gotten what he came for and in a spur of a moment faded into the dark, immediately he faded with her corpse, Xavier fell to the tremendously into a coma.***The chop knife in her hand slide off as she heard Mr Williams read a message which Rodger sent recently."Tonight?" She repeated dropping the veggies in her hand on the chop board."Perhaps, he doesn't want to delay vera and that lucy girl must have told him th
Trodding through the environment, he was accorded honor by whoever saw him, he could say that being a leader wasn't easy as alot was expected from him by the people which he haven't fulfilled yet. Meanwhile, Natalie couldn't find herself sleeping and decided to come outside for a stroll. They both met at a mini stone arch bridge. She let out a pleasant smile shocked to see who she was thinking about, perhaps fate had decided to grant her what she wished. He wasn't that shocked to see her as he expected the woman that was taking over his head to appear right in front of him with those alluring blue eyes that got him glued to where he stood. Xavier gave a sided smile and took it upon himself to walk her round the castle."Why are you outside, thought you weren't friendly with the dark" he began mocking her as they were steady in their steps."It's the full moon, I've got to howl" she responded and he affirmed to that."Do you howl?" She asked intrigued and he shrugged."Maybe, maybe not
Their voices could be heard around the walls of the building which infuriated the latter the more as the former blamed her for bringing up the wrong assumption in the dinner they had earlier."But she's married! Alex you're crazy!""Yes crazy for love Lucy, you of all people should understand""Stop this Alex! What about the promises you made...""I never made any promise to you, I only said let's stay alive together" he reminded raking his hair with his fingers as his eyes took a glimpse of the ring she had in her hand."For real lucy? You had this planned didn't you?""No!""Yes! You know I love Natalie and you just wanted to cause havoc over there""You're not thinking straight! Are you two just going to break the heart of the family she recently started, think about Anastasia at least" she rants and he grappled her shoulders in annoyance as she groaned with pain. He never wanted to hurt her but she was making him freak out claiming she knows what's best for him when she knows noth
The stomping feet of the cops could be heard, they chased after a criminal in the cold, the rain fell heavily as it made it quite difficult to find this being. Every gunshot fired at this being were void as it's legs swinged, jumped and climbed over hurdles on the way. In a swift, the criminal got into a building and a police officer trailed after this being but shockingly, an old lady appeared before him. Her crooked stick ditched on his boot and he let out a wince, perhaps her dim eyes didn't catch sight of who stood accross her. Hurriedly he moved aside and asked;"Excuse me, have you seen any girl come across this path". The old woman blinked her eyes and nodded slowly while shivering in the cold. She was too feeble to talk and only signs were what she used to motion to the cop who intended to take a step further just in case he sees her but the old lady almost stumbled on him drawing his attention to her. He couldn't see her clearly, her quivering body and slow movement made him
His nervous eyes suddenly turned dark as his tender feet hide behind his mother. His chapped lips muttered some words as his sad face could prove that something troubled him. He looked timid as his ears tingled at the sounds he heard which drew his attention to the scene displaying before him. He sensed the tears of children, wives and mothers. They were at the train station and soon, those they came to say goodbye to would depart. It made him scared as his eyes met the gaze of the young man who intended to kiss his mother. The place he stood with his mother was rowdy and it gave him goosebumps as his hands held the garment his mother held. His grip on the garment of his mother tighten as a young man waved at him with tears gathered in his eyes. It felt that was the last moments he would see the one person he looked up to. This lad had a lot of disappointment buried inside of him and had wishes to turn back time. Today was a day his lips had to mutter goodbye to his father who was a s
Dark tree trunks, shadows, overhanging limbs across the path seen at the last second, clumps of bushes, barely visible black trails snaking through the undergrowth. The moon shone through a lattice of leaves, patchy sky and stars seen in glimpses through tree breaks, tall shadowed pines stretching up like arrows into the sky, streaks of cloud against the earth, Wind slipping through leaves, cracking undergrowth with each step, creaking tree trunks, the flutter of wings unseen, snapping twigs, grass. Heavy pants could be heard through this dangy wood as a man could be seen covered in blood while holding a little child in his arms. His torn outfit, bruised face, dangling hair could tell he was escaping. His feet never gave a halt to the impending danger behind him as surviving from his raging foes was all that matter. He curdled this petrified child tightly, groaned in pains and tottered deeper into the woods. His only energy was the child he vowed to keep alive despite the pains and hu
He held a mini box in his hands and a headphone on. His lips mumbling words and his head nodding slowly. His feet stride slowly as the environment he found himself seems to be isolated except the creepy sounds of insects. A soft sigh left his lips as his eyes gazed around and then rested on a building in front of him. From the looks of it, he knew the reason why he was here in this abandoned building that would now become his own. He had no fear about what possibly could happen here. Rumors had it that the past occupants here never survived a night. A finger of his ran through his ruffled hair as he bit his lips and smirked. It was never his wish to come here but then circumstances made him do so. He was never good at anything yet had a dream to be a doctor and enrolled in a medicine school only to get kicked out due to a conspiracy and sent here to the tower of death. Magic was the key in that school and every perpetrator of a heinous crime was sent here as a death sentence, though w
The swirling wind swept across the place as the cloud had gathered for a heavy downpour giving signs for the victim of it's wrath. The dark was drawing in and people could be seen hurrying to take shelter away from the impending storm that would come upon them. Steadily, a downpour began wetting the earth and anything its stroke could come upon. Stacy was found in her pyjamas, t-shirt, flipflop slippers and face cap striding in the rain which had become heavy. Her hair were being toss aside by the whirlwind as the cold for the day had captured her. She had no idea of where she was heading to. There were no cabs around neither did she look like one who was ready to go home. At that moment, she wanted death to come take her. It was definitely over but too soon. The situation got her asking why it always had to be her. Why did she pull an act that had a bitter ending. Did he know she had to swallow her pride to hug him in people's presence? He felt like a gentleman who would understand h
Ryan smiled and began a speech by saying it was an honor to be seated with kings and queens of the upper hands. He had only seen them in TV and they look cute in real life. Furthermore, he praised them a bit to lighten up the mood mostly the ruthless looking emperor who let out a sided smile at the young man's adornment. Stacy was troubled that he wouldn't win her father but it seems like he would because the emperor loved praises. The only people who were against them were her brothers. Ryan had to lie about the companies he had and awards won as a distinguish businessman. The emperor went further to ask how much his assets worth and Stacy answered that on his behalf. The only man was someone who loved proof and couldn't be bought easily. The prepared Stacy had that with her which left Ryan stunned. The emperor was impressed by that as only a wealthy man, posed and perfect could be accepted to the family as though his were perfect because from Ryan's observation, this family was fall
She tried to speak, but was choked with tears. Her tearstained face was puffy and swollen with grief, crestfallen, she realised that her only chance to succeed was gone. However, proving the guest wrong was her aim. Her stunning wedding dress which had buried her suit her perfectly as she was groomed beautifully for this day. Today would have been the most remarkable day of her life if it wasn't screwed up by her groom. Here she was in the dress room cussing at every scene that had happened an hour ago. Her supposed groom had just rejected her last minutes to the wedding ceremony. If it were her wish, she would have halted the time. It was so embarrassing and agonizing for her as she needed to stay strong and sought a way out. Attempting not to freak out, she began to comfort herself.At that moment, time had stopped as the gnawing grief still held her still. Her make had almost wash away from the uncontrollable tears while she stood facing the mirror as her mind contemplated. She fol
The sun had risen up steadily as it shone its ray through windows which slightly paved way for it to penetrate. It bright light rested on her forehead as her mouth let out a gasp which was accompanied by a groan. She fluttered her lashes slowly trying to get her eyes open. Her body felt weaken and glued to where she laid. Gradually, her blurry vision was becoming vivid and it got to her notice that she was in a room. Her hands raked her rumbled hair as she felt like she was in a trace. The few memories she could recall was being locked up in a capsule and found herself staggering towards a foggy area. Her brown eyes scrutinized the room which didn't look like a ward or hers. The confused lady felt her temperature which was warm and then rolled her gaze to the window which gave way for the sun to greet her."What happened?" She questioned as though someone would give her the answers she needed. Miranda winced with pain while trying to massage her body. She still couldn't understand wha
Doctor Eric had his eyes on the young man who had been trapped inside this capsule for 20 years. He often wondered how his mentor knew about the miseries of passing through a border between the living and afterlife. The young doctor still had his speculations if he should cut this first experiment out of life. Furthermore, how did he survive in a foreign world all these years? He had thought that was the end of the young man but someone proved he was still alive and striving to live. It must have been difficult for this first experiment to adapt and face difficulty.Eric hadn't muster up courage to do as professor Henry commanded and he knew if the old man turns up, he would cut him off. For now, he was all alone in the laboratory and time wasn't on their side. From observation, the second experiment was left with 24 hours to return. He raked his left brow and strides towards Miranda's capsule, she was breathing just fine and had no complications yet. Though, he never could tell what
They arrived at an abandoned factory and he gestured to her that she had only few minutes to hand over the letter. She cleared her throat as she mustered up courage to seek after Eloise who needed to see the letter which her father brought to her. Thanks to someone, she got to her destination and found the Eloise's location. She was a teenage girl who lived in an forgotten factory and had no one asking after her. Tyler chose to stay outside but Miranda had no confident to enter this dark, lonely factory alone and requested Tyler comes along promising she wouldn't trouble him further. Furiously, he got a torchlight and led the way while she was clingy from behind. She had even banged her head on his back due to how close she was and he retorts at her to stay inches away from him. She apologized and stepped ahead of him as he handed her the torchlight since she decided to take the lead not to trouble this gloomy man. They were different doors in this factory and Tyler's voice gave her d
