2024-10-29 19:42:56Shantal walks happily over to Steve's house and knocks on the door. There's no answer after a few seconds, so she knocks again, this time hearing someone running down a set of stairs and then a large, mechanical object fall down. The door opens, showing Steve dusting himself off and picking up the broken pieces of glass that are remains of his facial screen.
"Oh my goodness, are you ok?" Shantal says as she walks in and lays her hands on Steve's shoulders. What's left of Steve's screen turns bright red as he looks down at Shantal. "Yes, I am. Do you think you could help repair me?" He says looking at the broken glass. Shantal steps around the glass carefully as she walks into the house. It's quite big despite the look on the outside. For some reason, Shantal remembers boards on the windows not too long ago. Steve starts to walk down a set of stairs next to the kitchen. "Follow me, there's a laboratory down here with some spare glass!" He says as his feet stomp o

Shantal wakes up as the truck comes to a sudden stop. Steve places Shantal upright as he exits the truck and grabs both his and her luggage and starts to walk in to the large facility that lay ahead of them. She looks over to her left. Trevor is already gone, perhaps even the first one out. Shantal unbuckles her seatbelt and gets out of the truck, only to stare, awed at the size of the facility. It seems to go as high as the clouds. She looks back down and sees Steve and Mr. Jameson motioning her inside.Shantal walks inside to giant machines hanging on the walls and cealings. They seem to be military, though Shantal can't put her finger on who uses those. Mr. Jameson says: "This is the hanger where I store all of my war machines. They're called-" "Just call them mechs." A mysterious, gruff voice, cuts him off. He walks in to the hanger, slowly revealing a 5'10 man in some type of armor and a helmet with a blue visor on his head. "Don't need to get all technical

As Shantal enters the mess hall, she notices that there's more people there than she thought there would be, dwarfing the size of her school's lunchroom by nearly three times. She walks over to the line and gets her lunch, and then sees Steve waving at her vigorously. She walks over and sits down right across from him."Besides all of the people, this could still be a date for us." He says with a smile. "Yeah... I guess." Shantal replies, slightly disheartened. "What's wrong, my sweet?" Steve says with a worried expression. "It's nothing really. I guess I just wanted to be alone with you more often, but now that I'm gonna get trained like a soldier, I guess I won't have that much free time." Shantal says with a sigh.Steve trys to not say anything, but ends up expressing his thoughts. "It was stupid on your part to think that being trained with me would get us closer together." Shantal stares, both appalled and heartbroken after hearing that

As Steve walks down the hallway, still diligently carrying Shantal, a man in a high-ranking solider uniform with one sleeve rolled up walks by and scoffs at them. "If you're gonna cut yourself, here's a tip: keep your blood in your room and people won't stare." Shantal notices that the soldier's arm has multiple scars on it, but three quarters of them are in a pattern. Shantal looks behind Steve to the hallway floor and sees a trail of blood, leading back to her freshly cut forearms. A tear crawls down her cheek as she shoves her face back into Steve 's chest.Steve sits at Shantal 's bedside while the nurse bandages the wounds. "Now miss, you lost a lot of blood. Actually, I'm surprised you didn't pass out! We would like your permission to start a blood transfusion." The nurse says while organizing the food tray and putting it on the stand in front of Shantal. Shantal looks over at Steve who nods his head yes, but Shantal looks back at the nurse and says: "No t

Shantal wakes up groggy from the nights prior. She sits up, angry for no apparent reason, other than that she didn't get to hang out with Steve more. She crawls out of bed and gets dressed, brushing her hair, boiling in unanswered anger.She walks out of the room in to the dark and empty hallway. Confused, she looks at her phone, surprised that she woke up at 5:30 AM. She walks out to the workshop, turning on the lights, and shutting the door, working on a sudden idea.After what seems like minutes to Shantal, there's a metallic knock on the door. She walks over and opens it to see Steve kneeling down to look through the small door. "Hello Shantal! Boy, you're up early." His screen smiling. "I guess. Just couldn't sleep. What time is it?" Shantal replies, scratching her head and smiling. "It is 9:27 AM." Steve says, peaking over Shantal's head to see what she is doing.Shantal pushes Steve out, still smilin

As Shantal walks out of her room, Splitter and another man dressed the same as him stand there in front of her, arms crossed. "Hey kid, what's up? Heard you put Trevor in the med bay." Splitter says with is gruff voice sounding like sandpaper rubbing against Shantal's ears. "He'll be fine. The shock will wear off." Shantal tries to brush past them, but the other solider pushes her back. "HE HAS EPILEPSY YOU LITTLE-" the solider yells before cutting himself off.Shantal stares at the men in horror. "I... I didn't know." Her rage slowly wearing off. The men tower above her, the new man seeming more upset than what Splitter is. "Listen, were gonna have to detain you. We can't let you roam free like this." Splitter sighs, holding out a pair of handcuffs. Just as Shantal holds out her wrists, an explosion is heard throughout the base, knocking the soldiers and Shantal to their feet.Alarms blare as Steve runs to Shantal and scoops h

The roof is ripped off as a mechanical dragon appears, roaring at all inside the hanger. Steve grapples on to its mouth and starts to punch it, only slightly affecting the dragon.Mr. Jameson holds out his hands and raises them slowly, making hundreds of black human-shaped figures appear. He points at the dragon and they swarm it. Shantal looks at Mr. Jameson, both confused and awed. "What are those?" She says, looking back at the figures attacking the legs of the beast.Mr. Jameson shrugs. "I call them Shadows. I'll explain it afterwards." Splitter attacks the head, which Steve has now dragged to the ground. Shantal holds out her hands, the coils running electricity to her hands and shoots lightning out of her fingertips at the dragon, stunning it in place.Steve sees his opportunity and grapple up the dragons snout, staring it in the eyes. His blue robotic body slowly turning black, a white aura surroundi

Shantal walks in to class with only seconds to spare, sitting down in her usual seat located all the way in the corner of the room. She chose this desk because she thought it would draw less attention to her, but what she didn't realise is how much more she made herself a target for bullying. Class, as usual, goes by in almost an instant, Shantal already finishing the homework while in class. She's in all honors classes, but Butler James refuses to let her skip the rest of high school. Shantal had passed a college level test when she was in 5th grade, but her parents had passed not too long after, thus leaving her with a guardian who turned out to be more strict that her real parents. He wanted her to sit through all of the grades, perhaps purely because he didn't want to have to have her home all the time as a constant reminder of her mother's passing.Mr. Tesla had 3 children with his previous wife who also died, and he was content with jus

"Didn't anyone ever tell you snitches get stitches?" Ana says with a snarl as she raises her fist, already bloodied from a previous encounter with someone who got in her way. Shantal, confused as to what she's talking about, puts her bag down slowly and puts her hands up to her face, hoping to avoid any hits. "I don't know what you are talking about Ana... I haven't said anything." Shantal says, preparing for anything. "Oh, then who did? Everyone else said they didn't, and it only leaves you, and you've given us trouble before, so just come clean, and we won't break all your bones." Ana replies, getting inches from Shantal 's face. "I-I swear, I didn't tell anyone!" Shantal says defensively, pure fear running through her body. "You didn't tell anyone, huh? Then why are we getting expelled? Lying piece of s-." As Ana thro

Although he also did not directly implied that he would do it.Nonetheless, Secretary Ye considered his response as a good sign. At least, the other party was no longer adamant at turning them down.So with the same insinuating manner, she answered him back."That would make it easier for you to do your duties once you become a director. All that was left for you now is to leave Ms. Shantal Nordstrome no other choice but to step down and abdicate the position of board directory to your hands.""Ousting her is not enough.

"You told Jodi about everything?"Mathilde asked her secretary as soon as the two of them were finally allowed to have some private conversation within the prison hall where she was currently detained. Panic was noticeably present on the other party's face when she raised her question. Meanwhile, the secretary remained silence yet that was all enough for Mathilde to guess her response and not long after that, her shoulders dropped on the side when the realization hit her."I guess she was bound to find out about it sooner or later."She muttered under her breath with despondent undertone.An exasperated sigh escaped Mathilde's lips afterward. But then, she suddenly tenses up when she recalled about something else.Leaning towards the other party all the while grabbing a hold to the iron bars, Mathilde looked around her warily first to make sure that no ears were on them.Only when she confirmed for the umpteenth time that no one was listenin
