They climbed out of the taxi, each movement deliberate and cautious, their senses heightened to the point where even the softest breeze seemed to carry a hidden threat. Calvin's eyes darted around, scanning the shadowed outlines of the trees, the empty street, and the silent windows of their house. The stillness was almost suffocating. Every shadow seemed to move, every rustle of leaves could have been something more sinister.

"Stay sharp," Calvin muttered under his breath, his voice barely audible. Lizzie nodded, her face pale but resolute as they approached the front door. The house loomed before them, its darkened windows staring back like empty eyes, offering no reassurance. There were no lights, no movement—just an eerie quiet that made Calvin’s pulse quicken.

His heart pounded in his chest as he fumbled with the keys, the cold metal slipping between his fingers. Fatigue weighed heavily on his limbs, making every small action feel like an ordeal. "Come on, come on," he whispered

It zipped past them, dangerously close, the force of its passage rustling the leaves nearby. Lizzie’s heart pounded as she instinctively ducked and cried, "They’re here!"Calvin's adrenaline surged. He grabbed Lizzie’s hand with a firm grip, his mind racing as he pulled her toward the dense trees lining the edge of their neighborhood. "This way!" he urged, his voice tense but controlled. They sprinted into the foliage, their footsteps almost soundless on the soft earth, yet their breaths came in ragged gasps, heavy with fear and exhaustion.As they darted through the trees, Calvin’s senses heightened. Every rustle of leaves, and every creak of branches seemed to echo in his ears. His eyes darted from shadow to shadow, scanning for any sign of their pursuers. His hand twitched, ready to call upon his powers at the first hint of danger."Where are we going?" Lizzie pa

    Lizzie’s foot snagged on something hard, and before she could catch herself, she tumbled forward. The ground rushed up to meet her, and she landed with a sharp thud, a cry of pain escaping her lips. A jagged stone had twisted her ankle, and agony shot up her leg, forcing her to clutch at the injured limb. The darkness around them seemed to close in, the distant city lights now feeling impossibly far away.“Calvin!” Lizzie gasped, her voice strained and filled with fear. She tried to push herself up, but her ankle buckled under her weight, sending fresh waves of pain coursing through her. Her breath came in shallow, panicked bursts as she realized she couldn’t stand on her own.Calvin heard her cry and immediately skidded to a halt, his heart lurching in his chest. He spun around, eyes widening as he saw Lizzie crumpled on the ground. “Lizzie!” he called out, fear and concern lacing his voice. Without a second thought, he dashed back to her side, dropping to his knees beside her.“Lizz

    Lizzie, still leaning heavily on Calvin, glanced back over her shoulder, her voice trembling as she asked, "Calvin, do you think they’re still following us?"Calvin, his breath still ragged from the effort of using his powers, scanned the crowd around them. The bustling city streets were a far cry from the ominous silence of the forest, but his nerves were still on edge. His eyes darted from face to face, searching for any sign of their pursuers.“I don’t know,” Calvin admitted, his voice low and tense. “They might be blending in, waiting for the right moment. We can’t let our guard down.”Lizzie bit her lip, the fear in her chest tightening. “What do we do now?” she whispered, her voice barely audible over the noise of the city. She could still feel the ghostly presence of their pursuers, even though they were out of sight.Calvin tightened his grip on her, his mind racing. “We need to get off the streets. Find somewhere to hide, at least for a little while. Somewhere crowded, where

  • The Super Doctor Calvin Hudson   I Have An Idea!

    Lizzie walked closely beside Calvin, her heart pounding with every step. Her eyes flickered nervously from one person to the next, scanning the faces in the crowd as if any one of them could be a threat. The city’s nightlife buzzed around them—bright neon lights reflecting off the wet pavement, groups of friends laughing and chatting, couples strolling arm in arm. It all seemed so normal, so oblivious to the danger that Calvin and Lizzie were wrapped in. The contrast was jarring, and it made Lizzie’s unease grow stronger.She couldn’t shake the feeling that eyes were following them, that somewhere in the mass of people, their pursuers were lurking, waiting for the right moment to strike. Her hand brushed against Calvin’s arm, seeking comfort in his presence."Calvin," Lizzie whispered, her voice barely audible over the hum of the city. She leaned closer to him, her breath warm against his ear. "Do you think we’re safe now? Are we finally out of their reach?"Calvin’s gaze swept over t

  • The Super Doctor Calvin Hudson   They Followed Us

    Calvin's eyes darted across the street, scanning the busy road for a taxi. The bustling nightlife around them offered some cover, but every second they spent out in the open felt like an eternity. His heart raced, pounding in his chest as he spotted a taxi cruising slowly down the road. Without hesitation, he stepped forward, raising his arm to flag it down.The taxi pulled up to the curb, its brakes squealing slightly as it came to a stop. Calvin hurriedly opened the door, gesturing for Lizzie to get in first. “Come on, Lizzie. Quick,” he urged, his voice low but urgent.Lizzie slid into the back seat, her hands trembling as she clutched the edge of the seat. Calvin followed right behind, slamming the door shut with a little too much force. He leaned forward toward the driver, his voice tense but controlled. “Take us to 1129 Crescent Street. It’s a clinic. And please, drive fast.”The taxi driver, a middle-aged man with graying hair and tired eyes, glanced at them through the rearvie

  • The Super Doctor Calvin Hudson   Stay Here

    As the taxi pulled up to the clinic, the headlights washed over the building’s modest facade, casting long shadows across the sidewalk. The clinic stood in a quiet part of town, its large windows darkened, and the sign above the entrance barely visible in the dim light. Calvin quickly paid the driver and helped Lizzie out of the taxi. She winced slightly as she put weight on her still-sore ankle, but Calvin’s earlier healing had done its job—she could walk, albeit carefully.The night air was cool, and the silence of the deserted street pressed in around them, amplifying their every movement. Calvin scanned the area one last time before guiding Lizzie to the clinic’s front door. His fingers fumbled slightly as he unlocked it, his nerves still on edge from the chase. Once inside, he closed the door behind them and quickly turned the lock, the soft click of the mechanism sounding unnaturally loud in the stillness.Lizzie looked around the darkened clinic, her breath coming out in shallo

    As the first light of dawn filtered through the blinds, casting a soft glow across the clinic's interior, Calvin stirred from his uneasy sleep. He sat up abruptly when he heard the unmistakable sound of a key turning in the front door lock. His heart raced as the tension of the night before surged back to the forefront of his mind. For a brief moment, panic gripped him—had their enemies found them already?He quickly stood up, careful not to disturb Lizzie, who was still resting on the cot. But just as he moved toward the door, it swung open, and to his immense relief, it was not an intruder but Tina, his trusted employee. She stepped into the clinic, her expression one of mild surprise when she saw Calvin already inside."Dr. Hudson?" Tina said, her eyebrows raised in curiosity. "I wasn’t expecting you to be here so early. Did you stay the night?"Calvin let out a breath he didn’t realize he was holding and smiled at Tina. "Good morning, Tina. Yeah, I had some things to take care of

  • The Super Doctor Calvin Hudson   Look At The Line!

    As the sun climbed higher into the sky, casting golden rays through the clinic’s windows, the hum of life outside grew steadily louder. Calvin stood by the large front window, rubbing his temples to push away the last vestiges of fatigue. He hadn’t slept much, and the events of the past few days still weighed heavily on him. But when he glanced outside, his tiredness was momentarily replaced by disbelief.A line of people stretched far down the street, their faces filled with a mix of hope and impatience. Families with children, elderly couples, and individuals of all ages were eagerly waiting for their turn. The sight was overwhelming—Calvin had anticipated a modest crowd, but nothing like this.Tina, standing by the front door with her hands full of paperwork, followed his gaze. Her eyes widened as she took in the scene. “Dr. Hudson, look at that line! I didn’t think we’d have such a crowd. The phones have been ringing off the hook since early this morning.”Calvin nodded, still try

  • No Engagement

    "Well, Alana? Should I call them now?" Kevin threatened again."You win this time," Alana said coldly. Then she ended the call and returned the phone to her subordinate with trembling hands.Her heart pounded wildly. Alana repeatedly pounded her chest, trying to get rid of the pain and tightness in her heart, but it was useless—she felt no relief at all."I'll go back to see Calvin. Make sure Kevin doesn't do anything crazy," she instructed her subordinate, her voice choked with restrained tears.With unsteady steps, Alana returned to the ballroom. Her face was grim, and the happy smile that had once graced her lips vanished, replaced by a blank expression."I apologize to all the guests, especially to Calvin… because our engagement must be postponed," Alana announced unexpectedly.Calvin was quite surprised by this sudden decision. Although he actually felt relieved, when he saw the sadness in Alana’s teary eyes, he couldn’t help but feel a mix of pity and curiosity. However, he quic

    The sweet melody of the violin played by the orchestra in the ballroom added a romantic touch to Alana and Calvin’s engagement ceremony."Smile, Calvin… Smile. You promised not to embarrass me at our happy event," Alana whispered with emphasis."Can we just skip to the main event and end this party as soon as possible?" Calvin asked, sounding uninterested."No, we can't. Whether you like it or not, you have to see this event through to the end, and you must always show a happy smile to the guests.""This is more troublesome than I imagined," Calvin muttered coldly before falling completely silent.Reluctantly, Calvin forced a sweet smile onto his face and went through with the engagement ceremony, though he was only doing it because he was a man of his word. He had made a promise, and he intended to keep it."Our engagement party tonight has to be memorable for all the important people I invited, Calvin. I want everyone to remember this day as a moment we experienced with happiness,"

James asked his mother.Tonight was the night of the engagement party that Alana had arranged so lavishly, attended by esteemed guests from high society. The beauty of the decorations, along with Alana’s radiant smile as she busily welcomed her guests, added to the grandeur of the event. However, all the glitz and glamour did not ease her parents’ concerns."There is nothing we can do, James. The party has already begun, everything is already happening. Calvin’s heroic act has spread across the country and been reported everywhere, leaving the Perry family with no reason to oppose Alana and Calvin's remarriage," Beatrice replied.Alana's family attended the event despite their reluctance.

    Calvin let out a heavy sigh, his gaze empty as he stared at his small clinic. The wind blew gently, as if urging him forward, encouraging him to step inside and resume what he had long abandoned."Alright, let’s do our best today," he whispered before stepping inside his clinic with determination.The staff, who had been waiting for him, immediately greeted Calvin with enthusiasm. A faint smile formed on his lips as he nodded slightly. "Return to your stations and open the clinic.""Yes!" they answered in unison, full of energy.Without hesitation, they scattered to their respective positions. As soon as the "open" sign was put up, a long line of patients quickly filled the reception area.The clinic was packed, overflowing with patients.

The clinic is too full," Calvin whispered tiredly to the receptionist."Understood, I will enforce

  • You Will Never Have Me

    Calvin stepped out of Miranda’s house, relieved that one heavy task was finally done. The cool evening air brushed against his face as he walked toward his car. Today had been exhausting, and his mind began to shift toward his clinic—a place that had always been his refuge from life’s chaos. However, his steps halted when he heard a woman’s voice calling his name.“Calvin!”He turned around, his eyes widening at the sight of the person standing there. Alana. His ex-wife, a figure from the past he had worked so hard to leave behind. Reality struck him like a blow—he had completely forgotten about the agreement he had signed to marry her again. That agreement had been in exchange for the immense help Alana provided during a tough time, but now it felt like a weight lurking in the back of his mind.Before Calvin could say anything, Alana ran toward him. In a flash, she threw her arms around him, holding him tightly, leaving Calvin frozen in place.“Calvin,” she said with relief, her voic

His hands gripped the steering wheel loosely, his mind drifting between thoughts of Lizzie and the uncertain path ahead. Suddenly, the silence was interrupted by a soft chime.[Ding!]The familiar sound of the system’s notification brought him back to the present. A faint blue light flickered on the small device attached to his wrist.[New Notification,] the system intoned, its voice calm and measured, a stark contrast to Calvin’s restlessness.“What is it this time?” Calvin muttered under his breath, keeping one hand on the wheel while activating the holographic interface with a quick swipe.The system’s screen illuminated his face as it began its explanation.[Dr. Hudson,] it started, [your recent accomplishments have brought you closer to unlocking the final legacy of your family. Only a few more points are required to access it fully.]Calvin’s brows furrowed. “Inheritance?

  • Returning

    When Calvin arrived home, the weight of the past days pressed heavily on his shoulders. He didn’t bother turning on the lights as he entered, letting the darkness wrap around him like a familiar cloak. The house was silent, almost eerily so, but it offered the solitude he craved.His feet carried him automatically to the backyard. The moon cast a soft glow over the small garden, illuminating the simple headstone that marked Lizzie’s resting place.Calvin approached the grave and knelt down, his fingers brushing against the cool stone. For a moment, he simply sat there, the night air still and heavy around him.“I did it, Liz,” he said softly, his voice cracking under the weight of his emotions. “It’s over. San Wang is defeated, and the war is finished. Barrion can finally rebuild.”He paused, staring at the ground as memories of Lizzie flooded his mind. Her laughter, her courage, the way she always seemed to know the right thing to say.“I hope you’re proud of me,” Calvin whispered, h

  • The Hero

    Calvin’s journey back to Nooria was uneventful, but his mind was anything but calm. The weight of his actions in Bacca lingered heavily in his chest. Despite his victory, he felt no triumph—only exhaustion and the nagging thought that the peace he had brokered might be temporary.When the plane touched down in Nooria, the first thing Calvin noticed was the unusual bustle of activity at the airport. As he descended from the aircraft, he was met with silence—a heavy, anticipatory silence that made him pause.A crowd had gathered, and Calvin froze as he realized their eyes were fixed on him. Faces reflected a range of emotions: awe, gratitude, and disbelief. Some whispered to one another, others simply stared. Then, slowly, one person began clapping.The solitary applause rippled through the crowd like a spark igniting dry kindling. Within moments, the entire gathering erupted into cheers and applause, the sound filling the air with a roar of gratitude and admiration.“Calvin Hudson!” so

  • The War is Over

    Calvin’s chest heaved as he faced San Wang once more, their weapons gleaming in the fading sunlight. The battlefield was eerily silent, save for the faint hum of San Wang’s blade and the rasp of Calvin’s labored breathing. The earlier clash had pushed both warriors to their limits, and the tension between them crackled like a storm on the brink of eruption.San Wang’s smirk returned as he lunged forward, his blade slicing through the air with deadly precision. Calvin parried, but the force of the attack sent him stumbling back. San Wang pressed his advantage, raining down a series of blows that Calvin barely managed to block. Each strike forced Calvin closer to the edge of the helicopter platform, where the abyss below waited hungrily.“You’ve fought valiantly, Guardian,” San Wang sneered, his blade locking against Calvin’s air-forged sword. “But your strength wanes. This ends now!”With a sudden twist, San Wang disarmed Calvin, sending his shimmering blade shattering into the ether.
