"What the---" agent Tolu couldn't close his mouth as he glanced around. Captain James moved to a huge box like device and connected cables to it. After that, he pulled the stretcher carrying Tobi over to what seemed like a huge bathtub. From the 'bathtub' he pulled out two chairs. "Tolu, bring him over here" captain James saw agent Tolu who seemed like Alice in wonderland and couldn't help but shake his head. Agent Tolu was jolted from his revelry by captain James' voice. Pulling the stretcher that carried Ajasa over, he saw captain James unstrap Tobi and place him on one of the chairs that he brought from the 'bathtub'. Agent Tolu studied these chairs closely. First of all they looked more like wheel chairs with various wires and tubes crisscrossed expertly along their base and handles. Secondly, they were made of steel, polished steel to be exact, so polished that it gave the chairs mirror like reflection. Agent Tolu just as captain James did unstrapped boss Ajasa
"I'm sorry!" The voice pleaded again enthusiastically. This was the fourth time Ibrahim was apologizing like this. Tisane was beginning to get a full blown migraine from seeing the tears and snot emerging from Ibrahim's face. "Its okay Ibrahim" Tisane replied again for the fourth time. "How can you say its okay?" Ibrahim cried. "I broke your door!" "No y--*sigh*" 'No you didn't' Tisane repeated this in his mind again and again. He knew that Ibrahim's feeble knocking, no matter how annoying it was couldn't have even put a dent in the door much less fling it across the room like that. He looked at his hand again amidst Ibrahim's continuous pleading. How did he just do that? At the moment of physical interaction between his hand and the door knob, he felt an inexplicable rush of strength, the likes he had never felt before. What was that? Adrenaline? As he was still pondering on this, that rush of pain in his head attacked him again. But noticeably, the pain h
Tisane ran like he had never run before. He felt his heartbeat accelerating with every step he took. ~Kpuu~ "Hey watch where you going!" Tisane dashed past several cars even to the point of almost getting knocked down. He knew he was being reckless, but he just had to get to the NPLC and explain why he didn't report for work for the past two weeks. Two weeks! What was he going to say? That he fell sick? He was involved in an accident? He forgot? He lost track of time? ~Sigh~ He remembered the words of Mr Fadeyemi as he met him in his luxurious suite. ~Don't disappoint me boy~ He couldn't believe that was two weeks ago! How would Mr Fadeyemi feel when he steps into his office? Raising up his head, he saw the NPLC majestic skyscraper just up ahead. On seeing the security guards at the front door, Tisane knew that visiting hours were over. "Stop!" A security guard stretched forth his hand, to make a stop sign as Tisane came towards the office
As Tisane dashed past the door, he had the sensation of being on a rollercoaster. He tried to steady himself when a worker came across his path, but it was too late... ~Crash!~ Tisane ran full speed into a man in suit and tie carrying a carton full of files. The sudden collision drew the attention of almost everyone on the first floor of the office. "Whoa!" "Did you see that?" "Is he drunk?" Everyone stopped what they were doing to observe the unexpected break of orderliness. "Hey man what the hell is wrong with you!" The worker that was knocked down became embarrassed and angry. "Am sorry, am sorry, am sorry" Tisane was scared shitless at what just happened. Trying to help the man get up..... "Hey you!" The security guard from before rushed into the building and seeing the scene before him, became more convinced that Tisane was up to no good. Tisane's fear doubled as he saw the wrathful eyes of the security guard. "Stop right there!" The securi
Tisane glanced across the elevator room urgently. Four men stared at him with fiery eyes. Tisane's mind began to race as to how he would get himself out of this bind. 'This is more troublesome than being chased by security guards' Tisane thought. As the seconds were ticking down, Tisane saw one of the men grab him by the collar and pushed him to the elevator wall. "What are you? Some criminal?" The man interrogated as he held Tisane firmly. Tisane desperately struggled against the man's tight grip but to no avail. "Hold him down. When we get to the third floor, we will hand him over to the security" the second man said. On hearing this, Tisane knew that he had to get out of this situation or he would be done for. But how will he escape out of this? By begging them? "Please you don't understand" Tisane began. "I didn't do anything wrong. I just want to see the CEO!" "What CEO?" "Who do you think you are to see the CEO?" "Tell that to the authorities kid"
Tisane dashed left without hesitation as he tried to run out of the office hall. He knew that trying to use the elevator at the office would be futile because the security guards were too close and would intercept him. "Hey stop right there!" At this point the security guards sprang into action as they tried to surround him. Tisane knew that if he was caught at this point, it would all be over. So with that thought in mind, he placed all his will and energy at escaping."Stop him!" The office was filled with commotion as the security guards tried to get their hands on the Intruder. Some of the workers even decided to lend a helping hand to stop the intruder. Tisane saw two office workers trying to bar his way. Narrowing his eyes, Tisane felt irritable annoyance well up inside him, most especially when he noticed that one of the workers trying to bar his way was the guy who stopped him from entering the elevator earlier. 'Not gonna work this time prick' Tisane suddenly leaped on a
Tisane jumped as he tried to push open the compartment on the elevator ceiling but he was not finding it easy.'That won't work silly. Take that fire extinguisher and smash it open'Tisane glanced at the elevator wall where the lady was resting and staring at him with obvious fear still evident on her face. A fire extinguisher was displayed in a glass compartment fixed to the wall.Tisane pulled out the fire extinguisher and held it upside down as he jumped and swung it at the square shaped compartment in the elevator ceiling.Bang!The first hit seemed to make no effect.'Again' the thought urged.Bang!The second hit made the compartment vibrate.'Again'The third hit seemed to shift the compartment a little.'Again'At the fourth hit, the compartment opened greatly to reveal a very long narrow space stretching upwards.'Good. Now go through that and you'll be on your way' the thought urged again. Tisane dropped the fire extinguisher and jumped to grab a hold on the open compartme
'Keep going kid. You're almost there'"20, 21, 22, 2----"'What are you doing?''Counting the floors I've passed''Why. What's the point in that?''Well just to know the number of floors altogether''I just told you, there are 25 floors altogether''Well..... there's no harm in been sure''......'Some time later.....'There, that's the last door'Tisane arrived at an elevator door which was located at top of the tunnel which had extended into a roof made of transparent glass.'Okay how do I open the door?' Tisane asked after pushing and trying to pry open the door with his hands.'Jump on one of those ropes and face the door''Why?''Just do it'Tisane obeyed as he hopped and grabbed one of the four huge metal rods as he stared at the elevator door.'Ok what now?''Just stare at the door and don't blink''Don't blink?' Tisane had a confused look on his face.'Yes don't blink. Trust me'After a minute, Tisane's eyes were beginning to become itchy.'Hey inner voice how long should I ke
(Flash Back........Matthew and his crew) Jerry was totally reluctant when he was asked by Matthew to accompany him to the NPLC. They were all on break from mutant school and as usual, were given some time to explore the outside world before they would be called back to school.So he was quite stoked to have a pleasurable time at some hotels with some beautiful ladies and ending it all at the beach as he rides the waves to the sunset. He had it all planned out, until Matthew told him to cancel his plans and tag along with Sabrina and Melissa.Matthew was regarded as a genius in the mutant school and was respected by a lot of mutants. He was an advanced grade mutant whom Jerry got acquainted with during an inter grade tournament.Matthew had rescued him from being almost killed by his opponent and because of that, he developed great respect for Matthew. In the mutant school, like every other societal system, you needed someone of a higher status and power to depend on as a way of survi
Under the dragon's behest, the space began to shatter and crumble. With the swipe of it's mighty claws, the spatial walls were torn open which caused the nebula clouds to fall in, resulting in more cataclysmic devastation.The dragon creature was bellowing with laughter as he watched the manifestation of his handiwork. But in the midst of it's laughing spree, it's eyes settled on Tisane, whom seemed unfazed by the chaotic phenomenon that was taking place._{Hmph...so what if you have the will of the Gods?!}__{You won't survive if your mutant soul realm is destroyed!!!}_The dragon was still bragging when a familiar voice echoed through the chaos which brought everything to a standstill._"El majeros!!"_The dragon creature's body shook as the entire space seemed frozen. It's eyes which were on Tisane began to quake as Tisane raised his right hand upwards and made a swiping movement.All of a sudden, the chaotic space began to repair and restructure itself as everything was returning
The dragon began to inject more of it's energy, in order to have a secure hold on the white glow which was already receding down Tisane's throat. The white glow suddenly stopped it's recession as it slowly began to succumb to the dragon creature's pulling force._{I will have you as mine!!}__{Mine and mine alone!!!}_The dragon's eyes flashed with mad determination as it poured more of it's energy in order to secure the white glow. It's eyes widened with joy as the white glow was pulled out towards Tisane's lips.But yet again, the white glow was stuck and refused to go past Tisane's lips. The dragon creature roared again in anger as it sent more of it's energy to pull out the white glow.This battle continued until the white glow began to become more volatile and erratic as it's glow increased. The dragon, in it's mad desperation didn't notice this sudden change on time, and by the time it noticed the sudden change of the white glow, it was too late._~Kablam!!~_There was a terrif
Tisane shook greatly as he heard the dragon's voice. It was a voice that he found extremely familiar._That voice...._He stared at the dragon as it began to approach gradually. Every step it took emitted strength and power._{In all my existence, I have never met a mortal creature as defiant as you}__{You should be proud mortal, for your progenitor was only able to become this tenacious through countless years of training and battles}_Tisane immediately had a moment of déjà vu as the dragon creature got closer, for it's image seemed to overlap with that of a certain monster in his mind. _The mountainous monster!!_Tisane spasmed as the memories came flooding back. His battles with the monster and how he even had to battle the colossal creature when it was split into three. He began to marvel at how he was able to exhibit that level of power in order to battle such terrifying creature._{I always wondered how you were able to contend against me so well}__{Well it seems that you a
As Tisane was engulfed by the Titanic fists, the monsters sighed in elation as they knew that Tisane was surely dead, for their attack was enough to completely obliterate an entire mountain. Halfway into their celebration, they began to frown as they discovered that something was wrong.Tisane whom was in the center of the monsters attack, wiped off a drop of blood that trickled down from the corner of his lips. He actually received the full brunt of the monsters terrifying attack and it was quite surprising that he was still standing and intact.His body was emitting the same brilliant glow, but in a greater intensity than before as he was enraged that he almost died due to the monsters attack. He didn't actually mind dying, but not before he had erased the mountainous monsters from existence.The monsters noticed that an intense force was repelling their fists greatly. After sometime, a powerful white glow erupted in the midst of their attack._{This.....}_Tisane gathered the energ
Tisane raised his head as he gave the mountainous monster a death stare. The monster subconsciously shivered as it's expression betrayed it's fear._''It's afraid.....of me?''_Tisane was amused by the sudden expression of the monster. It was quite soothing to see the monster display such an emotion.Tisane would have loved to mock and tease the abominable creature, but right now, with the power that was flowing through him, he was too eager to make the monster feel the pain that he had been feeling all this while. With a blast, he rushed towards the mountainous monster as he took a flying leap at the monster's face.He was so fast that all the monster could do at that point, was to hastily release the scarlet beam from it's eyes. Tisane didn't try to dodge the monster's attack as he threw his right fist forward._~Bang!~_With a huge explosion, Tisane and the monster's beam collided in the air. He's body was emitting a brilliant white glow as the force propelling him through the air
The earthquake only lasted for some minutes, before something incredible took place. Tisane watched wide eyed as the entire flesh, bones and blood of the dead monsters on the field began to move as if by an unseen force.They were all pulled towards a particular section of the field in front of Tisane. Pieces of flesh and bones began to merge together and pile up into a mountain of bulky meat.It was quite a horrifying sight as the mountain of meat began to take a strange human form. Though this form was more monster than human, it featured powerful muscular arms and legs.On it's head protruded various horns of different sizes. It's eyes a reddish gold hue shone like stars.It's mouth displayed a disorderly arrangement of huge sharp rows of teeth. The aura it emitted was so pressurizing that the air itself became so heavy and thick that it felt like being submerged in an ocean of paste.Tisane silently affirmed as he saw the monstrosity before him._''Finally, I have met the devil him
Tisane watched the sliced open body of the anaconda as it emitted a powerful putrid smell. Though, Tisane was able to kill three of such powerful monsters, he had no iota of joy or happiness in him.From the corner of his eye, he saw the overwhelming number of monsters which had surrounded him, each of them waiting for their turn to tear him to pieces. He knew that no matter how well he fights, he would not be able to kill them all._''I am going to die here''_Tisane now stood at the moment of his demise as his body shook in fear. The fear of death was the greatest fear that any mortal creature could ever feel._{You have performed slightly above expectation mortal. Your fighting spirit is quite admirable, unfortunately it will not be enough to save you from gruesome death!}_Tisane whom was shaking in fear initially, suddenly gripped the stinger weapon in his hand tightly as he gritted his teeth in anger. The voice that spoke only helped to irritate him to no end."F**k you!!"Tisan
The tentacle uncoiled itself as droplets of flesh and bone sprinkled out of its suckers. Tisane felt his heart bleed and his eyes pool with tears as he saw what was once his father now turned to be bloody pieces of bone and tissue.They were all dead.....Everyone.....He was all alone...._{I expect you mortals to show humility and surrender in the face of death. Feigning arrogance or courage will do you no good}__{Don't worry boy, after you give me what I want, I will make sure that you see your family again}_Tisane's body began trembling, not in fear or despair but in anger. He's entire family was slaughtered before his eyes by the same monster who was speaking so arrogantly, as if their lives were put in it's hands."You bastard..."Tisane muttered as he remembered his father's last words which ignited a flame inside him."You bastard!!!"The ignited flame became a raging inferno as Tisane roared out in anger._{What?! How dare you address me with such insulting and derogatory w
