Sia was sitting in a huge room whose walls were covered with numerous screens.
“Jojo, stream the footage from Sentinel Islands.” She commanded the Probot, the only one she had brought here.
“Yes, ma'am.” It replied in a mechanical voice and got to work. Its hands flew across the light board as it punched in a series of codes.
Soon, the island came into view. Sia checked the market, The library, and even homes. She felt a dull ache in her heart when she saw Wrick do some shopping in the m
“Didn’t Mr. Ben say that he had killed the alien?” jay asked Yorick. “Yes, he did but apparently he wasn’t being truthful.”“Jojo, I am going to free the man inside. You are not allowed to attack him, even if he tries to harm me.” “ Sia, what is wrong with you? This is not Ron. He is a dangerous Viridian! Even if you want to free him, you shouldn’t command the Probot to not attack him.” Yorick said in an anxious voice.
Jay kept quiet after the threat. Sia replayed the footage from the beginning.Yorick sat up straight when he saw the warning bell go off in the footage. His eyes popped out of the socket when he saw the message displayed on the screen with the warning.“Damn! This can’t have happened!”“It did Yorick. It did. If it was not for your clone detecting system I would have never figured it out.“Wait! What you both are trying to say is that Ron is a clone…”“Yes, Jay. The man who was with us was not Ron but his clone. The man we rescued from the cell today is the real Ron.”“No ways, Don’t believe her Yorick. She is toying us. I can’t sit here and listen to any more of your crap!” Jay said and got up from the chair.“I will explain everything with evidence, Jay. Please listen to me.” Sia begged but he stormed out of the room.Yorick grasped Sia’s hand and said, “I believe you, Sia. Jay is just in denial. He will
Ron woke up and tried to sit but he felt too weak to do so. He opened and closed his fists and was relieved when he was able to do so freely. They had finally taken off those stupid clamps. He moaned and turned to his left side. His eyes fell on Sia who had dozed off on the chair. She looked like an angel in her sleep. She didn’t just look like an angel. She was the angel who had kept him adrift in the most difficult times. It was only her memories that kept him sane while he was being tortured. He was ma
Sia clenched the edge of the sink hard as she heaved. Since she had replaced by the food diet by the energy diet, there was nothing to throw up in the first place but that made even more painful. She slumped to the floor; exhausted both physically and emotionally. She was filled with disgust each time she thought about that alien. How did she not recognize him?She buried her head in her hand and sobbed for all she was worth, letting the regret and hatred flow through her tears. The door of the bathroom was push
Jay had his boxing gloves on and he was dueling with a robot he had designed to return his punches. He had found out about this sport while researching human history. Since no one was interested in playing this sport anymore he decided to create a robot that could duel with him or become his punching bag when needed. He found it especially useful whenever he wanted to vent out his frustration. Today he was beyond frustrated. How could Sia play such dirty games? What irked him more was the fact that Yorick belie
Fifteen days later…Sia, Ron, Jay, and Yorick had gathered in the hall and were waiting in the living room for Mr. Ben to arrive.Sia tapped her feet rhythmically while Ron was playing with a strand of her hair. Jay’s eyes were glued to the door. Yorick was working on his COD but his eyes drifted to the doorway now and then.“Are you sure that the doctor said Mr. Ben is fine?” Jay asked Ron for the umpteenth time.
Mr. Ben led them to a spacious room. After asking them to sit on the couch he picked up a device like COD and said, “It took me years to recover some of them but I must say they all worth the effort…”“Can you please tell us what we are talking about? I feel like I have returned to my playtime days…” Ron complained.“Surprise… just wait and watch…” Sia said giggling. “ I have chosen this one as this is one of the funniest one made in 2019. The
Two days later…Sia squealed in protest as Ron grabbed her from behind. The next moment darkness greeted her as something was placed on her eyes. “I have a surprise for you…” Ron whispered into her ears as he blindfolded her. “But… why are you covering my eyes? How will I see?” Sia whined.“Don’t worry… I will take off your blin
Ron managed to convince the Council that the best place to set up a secret inventory and development wing was the Sentinel island. Sia handed over the Zen Enterprises to Jay and moved back to the island with Ron. They lived together with Wrick and Myra. During the day they would work like the normal residents but at night they visited the underground tunnel created by the Viridian which was now their research station. Viperous cliff remained Sia’s favorite spot from where she watched the sunsets with Ron.
“Do we really need to do this, Sia…” Ron said in a disgruntled tone. “Umm…hmmm… we owe this to our friends. Don’t forget they played an important role in bringing us together.” Sia lectured adjusting Ron’s tie. “Okay… fine… let us get over with this stupid reception. But, after that, I am going to keep you trapped in my arms forever. Sia blushed at the implied meaning. She turned to look into the mirror to avoid his gaze. Today she was
When Ron’s eyes fluttered open he was delighted to see Sia sitting beside him. She was staring at the space in front of her, lost in thoughts. A smile crept his lips as he recalled the time she was pointing the gun at him. She looked hot as hell and he had a hard time focusing. He was glad that she hadn’t arrived before he trapped the Viridian, else he would have found it difficult to capture him.Sensing Ron’s glare on her, Sia turned to him. She felt a jolt of electricity flow between them wh
Sia, Mr. Ben, and Jay were seated in the display room of the healthcare center. Their faces lit up when they saw Dr. Burming walking towards him. The gloating expression on his face indicated that he had been successful. “Mr. Ben, Sia, Jay…” He greeted them before taking a seat facing the three of them. Then he sat there staring into the space in front of him. When he didn’t speak anything for a long time, Mr. Ben prompted, “Did you figure out who the real Ron is doctor?” &l
“Don’t listen to him, Sia. The man that is standing in front of you is the Viridian. Think about this carefully. Would I have appreciated that you came to this lonely place alone?”Sia felt stunned by his statement. He had a point too. When Brown-eyes started walking towards Sia, she whipped out the laser gun from her pocket. “Don’t move or I will turn you to nothing in a moment,” Sia warned pointing the gun at him. Brown eyes raised his hands and said, “I don’t kn
Sia and Jay emerged in a large and deserted street. The sides of the street were piled with debris similar to what she had seen near the warehouse. It looked long abandoned; debris and ruins of old structures stretched on either sides as far as the eyes could see.Sia tapped on the PCID to track Ron's GPS. The red signal indicated that they were close to Ron’s CID. Sia walked in the direction of the signal cautiously. Jay followed behind keeping a watch on the surroundings.After searching for some time she found a CID on the ground. She looked around before picking it up warily.
Zen Digiola was decorated with ornate flowers. The Probots were busy moving around and touching up the decorations. After a lot of debate Ron and Sia had agreed to keep a grand wedding, just like it was shown in movies. The debate wasn’t whether they should have a physical wedding or a digital one. The controversy was regarding the setting of the wedding. Sia wanted to take her vows in an artificial garden setting while Ron wanted a castle setting. In the end, Ron decided to give in. He wanted to make the
Sia ran and grabbed Ron by the hand, forcing him to face her. She cupped his face in her hand and said, “These are tears of joy, Ron. I… have never felt so happy before…”“You are just trying to console me, aren’t you?” He asked, eyeing her suspiciously. “No, Ron… what you tried to do was outstanding… My heart is so full of joy that there is no place to hold it, so they are flowing down my cheeks as tears…” Sia said, giving him one of her dazzling smiles.
Two days later…Sia squealed in protest as Ron grabbed her from behind.
