In a dark alley in the capital city of Angadiya, which is called "Andoradiya," she woke up Nana with the same severe pain all over her body and an unbearable headache. It was hard to even open her eyes. She tried her best not to scream loudly from the pain she was feeling, holding her head with both her hands; she was capable of doing that and moaning, laying down on the hard surface of the alley floor.

Finally, after almost 30 seconds, which seemed like eternity to her, the pain subsided and finally she was able to sit up and look around her. After almost a few more minutes, she stood and went to the lights that were coming from a nearby opening in front of her. With a few balanced steps, she moved slowly forward, falling sideways like a drunk person. 

There was nothing in her mind, her brain was totally black. As soon as the light hit her eyes, she started feeling the same severe headache aging, so she immediately closed her eyes and held her hand again. This time, fortunately, it only lasted for a few seconds. She looked around her, hopping to see something or someone familiar, but what came to her sight was something else.

With tall towers above the clouds everywhere, strange shaped vehicles moving on the road, even some of them flying in the sky, with the shock appearing on her face and open mouth from the surprise, she kept watching around her for a few minutes, leaning against the wall, she started wondering where she is now and how she ended up here, and how she had arrived in to this alley, trying to remember what happened so far, but nothing came back to her. All she knew was the scene in front of her and that this was her first time seeing it.

May i help you "you seem lost" is the words that woke up Nana from her deep thoughts, beside her she saw a young petite girl with a long black hair wearing what looked like a school uniform, smiling at her, "Where am i" was the first question that popped up in her mind and she asked without a hesitation.

"It seems this is the first time for you here" then welcome to Androdiya the capital city where did you come from asked the young girl after she thought that she explained everything to the lost woman in front of her.

Without waiting for an answer the young girl pointed at a building at the corner of the road and said "go to that building and register yourself they will be able to help you" and left still the wide smile appearing on her face, Nana looked at the building then nodded to the young girl and said "thank you" and went straight hopping to find out where is exactly this Androdiya and how she had arrived here.

In front of her she saw a large sign board on top of the door of the building written in symbols and strange letters, un able to read it or even figure out what language is it Nana decided to enter the open door, as soon as her step went through the door a loud alarm sounded through out the building and suddenly appeared four men around her from each side and said at the same time "freez, stand down, don't move or resist, resistance is futile".

The heat of the sun's rays on his face woke him up. Immediately, Tahir clunched into his head from the severe headache he felt as soon as he opened his eyes, a headache that he had never felt the like of it before in his life, which made him close his eyes again.

For a while, even after the headache went away, Tahir didn't open his eyes. Instead, he tried thinking and searching through his memory for the last thing he remembered, but it came up blank.

Nothing at all. It felt like his whole life had been wiped clean. Slowly, he sat down on the bed he was lying on and looked around the room he was in, except for the one he was sitting on.

There was one cabin in the corner and a small table and a chair in the other corner. And a doorway into a smaller space seemed like a toilet.

He didn't see anything familiar around him, which added to his confusion. Nothing was familiar to him and he couldn't remember anything.

He tried to stand but felt disoriented. He sat down again and waited for a few more minutes. That is when he noticed that there was something hanging on his neck with a string at the end of it.

There was a small card made of metal. Holding it forward to see what it was, he recognized his ID card with his picture on it, but the writing was totally unfamiliar to him and he couldn't read it.

That made him think to look through his pockets, after going through all of his pockets he found in it 6 items the only familiar one among them was a leather wallet which contained a bunch of some currency notes, he could figure out the nomination of it from the numbers which was the only thing that he understood.

Counting it the total amount was five hundred thousands, he had no idea the value of it but apparently its a lot of money, disregarding the wallet he tried to figure out the other five items but to no avail, the first item was a small Cristal cube the size of table tennis ball, the second item was a rectangle shaped metal box the size of his palm.

Looking at it from each side and touching it nothing changed, it has no opening in anywhere, so he had to leave it a side , the forth item was a pouch filled with small round items with different colors but all is the same size and shape of olive he counted 30 of them.

The other 2 items was identical about 30 centimeters long and 2 centimeters thick made of transparent material and very light holding it felt like he not holding any thing, still wherever he touched nothing changed.

Finally he decided to but them back in his pockets and go out of the room he may find out something sheds the light on his situation at least its better than just sitting in this room and doing nothing that is what he told himself.

Once more and this time slowly he stood up and and moved towards the only door opposite where he was sitting which basically the only exit and entry to the room, with a rapid hearth beet from worrying and excitement mixed with anxiety he opened the door and stepped backwards like he is worried something will jump out of it.

But fortunately, there wasn't anything or anyone at the door. He peered with his head first and looked both ways down the corridor. When he found nothing, he went out. The corridor was not long; on one side, it ended with a large glass window, and on the other side, it was apparently the exit.

In a hurry, he went to the exit and found stairs going up and down. Then he went downstairs, but now slowly with couscous, since he didn't know what was ahead of him.

At the end of the stairs, he found a large dining hall with a few people seated at separate tables and a reception desk at the corner, and directly opposite him was a large glass door wide open.

Without hesitation, he went straight to the door to exit the building, glancing to each side, worried that someone may have stopped him, and that's exactly what happened. In the middle of his way, before reaching the door, he heard someone yelling behind him in a foreign language.

Involuntarily, he looked back, and he saw two uniformed men coming towards him from behind. At that moment, he felt scared and the urge to run was the only thing occupying his mind, but unfortunately, his legs didn't receive the command to run and he froze in his place.

Within seconds, the two men reached him and started asking him questions that he didn't understand. The only thing he was able to do or say was speak to them in English, saying "I didn't understand your language. Do you speak English?"

The men each had a weapon in their hands and the woman was holding a small device in her hand. As soon as she sat in front of her, she put the device on the table and started staring at her without asking anything.Nema didn't give any push, as she was scared on top of the confusion she was in. The silence continued for almost a minute, which seemed longer than hours to Nema and increased the tension she had felt from the beginning.

    In an underground bunker, on a large rectangle table, six people were seated opposite each other, with between each one a space enough for two chairs. In front of each is a large transparent screen. Whatever is showing on it is only visible to the person in front of it. To anyone seeing it, for the it will look very strange. Looking at those six people dressed in a peculiar way, with hoods covering their heads and masks over their faces, looking at a screen in front of them and typing something on an empty space in front of them, no one is talking, and the most strange thing is that they have been that way for six days now. None of them moved a single inch, not even for a minute from their position. The reason for that is really simple: because there are no doors or windows, no entrance or exit, any normal human will wonder how they got in to begin with. Suddenly someone appeared from nowhere, for the first time, the six people's attention was diverted from the screens to the man

    Unknown to Aden, there were two separate parties having a meeting about him. The first was Emika and the council members discussing the information she provided them about the newcomer young man, who was so unbelievably strange that it may have seemed like he was an alien and they couldn’t figure out where or why he came here. Emika hesitated a little bit about informing them about her nightmares, which she came to believe after seeing the young man that they were not just nightmares but probably visions. If she tells them, regardless of what they may think of her afterwards, will they believe her? That was the issue, and what was occupying her thoughts while they were arguing among themselves. Knocking her fingers on the table to grab their attention, she said, "There's another thing you should know about." She paused for a few seconds and then continued, "For the past week, I have been having what I thought were just nightmares in my dreams, but now I am convinced that it was a vi

    Calm down, calm down. I repeated that to myself a few times, doing my best to calm myself, but waaaaaaw that is really awesome. Yes, that was the only thing that came to my mind, and I almost said it aloud, but luckily I didn't. Although it was apparent on my face, I came back to reality and out of my fascination when I heard Emika ask me, "Are you alright?" "I can understand you. How is that possible? ", surprised that within a few minutes I was able to overcome the biggest obstacle I was facing. Instead of getting an answer from Emika, the AI in my head answered, "I have transferred Angariya's common language to your memory. That is why you can understand it. I transferred it to Broca's area, so you can speak it also. The next thing I heard was coming from Emika, saying, "Great, the chip we implemented was responsible for that. Being able to communicate was the reason we did it, and it can do many more. I believe it's already talking to you, and it can answer any questions you may

  • Wake Up And Run   Common Ground 2

    Emma and the man with her have been brought to a house shaped like a hut connected to a very enormous trunk of a huge tree. It's a one-story house, with the ground level mostly consisting of a living room and dining room with an open kitchen attached to it in the common studio style of earth. They hadn't been given a tour or any sort of instruction. The men who brought them here pointed at large chairs in the living room and left, leaving behind one man at the front door of the house guarding them, and he stood there without a single word just looking at them. Emma didn't ponder much on the feeling she had been having. She knew exactly what was missing. She remembers the face of her brother when she saw him last. She doesn't know where he is now, but she has a feeling that he is not far, and he is with her in this world. For some reason that she didn't figure out yet, they have been suppurated. The memory of what happened after they entered the cabin is still vivid in her memory.

    At first glance, anyone who is walking in the streets of the huge city, except for buildings that have been made of sold rocks, the streets, shops, the people going around for their own business, everything looks normal like any other city. Even if you look up, you will see the normal sky, like anywhere else in the world. The fact that it is underground and below the surface by more than one thousand meters, is the most incredible thing. Not just this city but the whole empire, which consists of thousands of cities, the whole continent is one empire, no one of the current generation knows exactly how old is this empire. Not just this city but the whole empire, which consists of thousands of cities. The whole continent is one empire. No one of the current generation knows exactly how old this empire is.

  • Wake Up And Run   Count Down 2

    There are a lot of things unknown to the general population about the empire and about the emperors of this continent. The life the normal people lead is a tough one. Although technologically they are more advanced by eons than the rest of the planet, still that didn't help the common people that much. Living underground and building a whole society in an environment totally made artificially has its cost, and that cost has to come from somewhere. The whole government structure is created by a system that each and every ministry or department doesn't have a central system that can manage them, and it is all run by the intelligence department. That goes directly under the control of the emperor himself. That is why there is no single citizen on that continent who knows who does what. Quite simply, the whole government is shrouded in secrets. Secrets on top of other secrets, and anyone who gets a glimpse of what is going on or even wonders what is going on disappears from the face of

    My name is Ellei, and my job is as an investigator. It's not a job that I chose by myself; I have been assigned to it. Like everyone else on this continent, we are a different race than the others who live with us on the planet. We are 68% biological and 32% machines, and they call us Androids, although I don't know where the name came from. We call ourselves Andorians. We live peacefully with a small human population that lives among us, and we welcome any race to our country. As long as they don't commit any crimes and abide by our rules, anyone is welcome. Since we are not like the rest of the species, you will rarely see any crime that needs investigating. That is why my job was, until today, the most boring job ever. And, in case you're wondering, yes, I was bored, and yes, we have feelings just like everyone else. The only difference between us and other humans is our physical strength and our collective intelligence. Our brains can process any information within seconds, and

She put the device that she was listening to and collected another one from her desk drawer and started recording a message: “This recording is from Section One; the time is 17.00 hours, and today is the first day that officially Project Zero One started finally. I hope we have enough time to implement all the security measures that we have been working on." Without a second thought, she pressed the send button and returned the device to the same drawer. With a sigh, she rested her back on the chair she was sitting in and said, “I wonder if this was all a perdition or planned, I don’t know what they are thinking, fighting an alien invasion with abducted aliens.” a

    Chapter 37Beginning of the Invasion Part 1BEmika’s point of viewThis was the worst nightmare I have been seeing, and I really wished it was just a nightmare, but it was not; it was a reality, a fact in front of my eyes. The thing I was referring to as a portal was forming in the same location I have been seeing it in my dreams, or, to say it correctly, my nightmares. And the reason I am referring to it as a portal is because I knew it was, because I saw it with my own closed eyes at that time, the monsters coming out of it, which indicates that it was a portal of some kind. I have been afraid my dreams would come true, and I didn’t wish for it, but somehow I had the feeling that whatever I saw would happen, but I hoped it would be in a different day and time; a time when I was better prepared for it and was able to take some kind of countermeasure for it.I have no idea what kind of countermeasure I could have been able to take.

Aden stood up when he saw Murad approaching him and smiled while saying, “It’s embarrassing to say that, seeing you came to help me, but I am actually leaving the tent here that way I didn’t dismantle it.” Murad was not expecting to hear that at all While the surprise was showing on his face, he asked, “Can I ask you why?” Aden didn’t expect to be asked that question either, so he hesitated for a second and said while scratching his head with a small laugh, ”ha

It was both smokey and liquid-like at the same time, and he was unable to determine what material it was composed of. It was moving like a live entity with a pulsating heart, but it was not changing shape. In a matter of seconds, it gained shape and materialized in front of him at the location the youngster had indicated. He felt a terrible sensation throughout his body. This is what the young man was talking about. He told himself, "So it's all true then," confirming the first thing the boys had mentioned. "The time was the next thing he confirmed, and it was true too." He had the chance to glance at the clock now that it was getting to be the time of sunset, but he didn't think of it. He fe

    Chapter 32Intermission Jack’s side story Part 1Anther's note:This is Jack’s story recap as I told it in the first volume, but I will now add the missing parts that were not known to anyone in the first volume or the second volume until now, or what was his connection to the storey line? So far, all we knew in the first volume was that he was looking for his wife, and that was all he was looking for. Where was he imprisoned? What for? There were a lot of questions that no one asked and nobody answered, and no one will unless someone dares ask the correct question.Also, I edited the previous chapter, its not just a copy of the same chapter of the first volume to go along with the current retelling of the story without changing much from the original story as a recap because of the importance of the story line. I remember one reader asking me if I was just filling in the characters for the sake of my book, and he was specifically talking about Jack :) I hope now he got the answer.
