2024-10-29 19:42:56It was the ultimatum from hell, and we knew it. Chancellor Thorne’s voice swirled in my head.
Submit yourselves to me, and you shall see your loved ones resurrected. It is only logical.
Where do your loyalties lie, anyway? With a human planet that abhors your kind, or with me, who has always been on your side?
Argh! Thorne was at it again, using twisted logic to try to control us. If you didn’t know better, you’d think siding with her was the moral thing to do.
But I had seen too much. Thorne was a monster, and her blood flowing in my veins was poison to my heart. I would give anything to get my dad back—almost anything, that is—except for joining any cause with Thorne written on it. My stomach did flips thinking that the others might not agree with me.
I glanced at Rick. I hadn’t known him for long, but I knew his story.

We took our uniforms and changed into them in a hurry.“Whoa, check me out,” Adrian said.She emerged wearing a red uniform with gold streaks around it and an oval across her chest.“Looking good,” I said. I walked up to Adrian sporting a green uniform with pink stripes on the sides and a pink butterfly outline on my chest.“Same to you, Medulla!” Adrian said.“Medulla?” I asked.“Since we are going to be bad ass super heroes, I figure each of us should have a fitting name,” Adrian said. “You’re a telepath so you use your brain more than any of us. So I thought why not use a codename that fits your powers? On the field, call me Energygrid.”“Five seconds of wearing these pop-rock band costumes and she’s dishing out the nicknames,” Daryl said, entering the room dressed in a dark turquoise uniform wit

It’s hard to imagine that going up against a power-hungry alien could get any scarier.We all stared at the monstrous display of power Thorne was about to unleash. With the partial energy she siphoned from the Anomaly, we hoped we could stop her.“You children should’ve joined me when you had a chance,” Thorne said. “Especially you, my dear. You inherited your father’s weakness. Your pathetic belief in human righteousness blinds you from capabilities of your race.”She continued ranting while the remains of the academy spiraled around her. “It’s a shame that neither them nor any of you could have seen the true vision of New Akarrius.”“We must destroy that thing on her chest,” Primal said. “It should break her connection to the Anomaly forever.”Thorne summoned a massive ball of magenta energy lights and fired it toward us. “Die,

s I woke up, I opened my eyes while Adrian and Eric tried to revive me. Sweat dripped down my face. I could not help but feel these visions had more connections to the academy. How could we plan a successful escape? “Thank goodness you’re awake, chica,” Adrian said. She gave me a tight hug. For a second, I started to think of Marcy. Even though it was not that long ago, it felt like forever since I had an actual real friend worry about me. “What happened? Where’s Natalie? How long have I been out?” I asked. “You’ve been out for 50 years, chica. We are the grandkids of your friends! And the world is now ruled by giant, talking lobsters.” “What?” “Just kidding, lighten up.” Now was not a good time to joke around. Eric elbowed her in the arm. “Not funny,” he said. “You guys are too tense. After that training, we need a little humor,” Adrian said. “The tr

Keep calm! We got this !" Ying Yang said as the three of us took cover from the relentless soldiers.You can end this! A sinister voice haunted me as we sat there unable to retaliate." We gotta do something now! " Warzone said as she generated a rifle out of her orange energy. "Use it! Use the Anomaly." Are you sure you can make the shoots? " Ying Yang said." After two years, you're still asking me that? " Warzone responded.You could save them! Just like you should have saved your friends and your mother!" Stop! Get out of my head! " I muttered to myself!

Meanwhile back within the facility, the other Ominous are about to encounter four UFOs the size of mini band armored with deadly missile launchers." So much for having an easy mission," I said jokingly." Don’t worry, I have a plan !” Ying yang said. ” You two thinking what I’m thinking?! ”I quickly read his mind and relayed his plan to Warzone." We are now! ” I said." Great! Let’s do it. Attack form Bravo!”We nodded towards him and then Warzone slowed downtime as the UFOs each unleashed a barrage of missiles upon us.Then she tapped Ying Yang and me, which allowed us to move at normal speed while in her time stasis. Then Yin Yang used his telekinesis to levitate the missiles before they reached us.Then war zone summoned two katanas, ran up to the UFOs, And sliced each one in half.

We flew the convoy throughout the facility, hoping to catch up to the others just in time. When we finally reach them, we saw them against a powerful hybrid with dreadlocks and what’s living Monsters made of stone.Guys, we’re back! ” I said to the others as we flew towards them.“Whoa! ” Energygrid said as she turned her attention from the stone creature she was fighting. ” Took you guys long enough!”The stone creature took that moment to through a fist at Energygrid. Only for Warzone to shoot the creature’s head off by summoning a construct of the laser gun, she took from one of the Vanity guards." Holy crap!” Energygrid said. ” You saved me? ”" Why should you have all the fun?!” War zone said.The hybrid attacking them then turned his attention towards the rest of us." Must be my lucky day!

We were halfway towards our home base where Keri took her time to recuperate. I volunteered to monitor her while we were heading home.The rest of the team were looking up any info about the hybrids that attacked us back at the facility . It didn’t make sense. Why would other hybrids not want us to liberate one of our own?! Also, why would they only take one hybrid and leave the other behind ?" Hey, Maddie! ” Adrian said. She turned towards me in her swivel chair upfront on the right side of the cockpit." Yeah!” I answered." You alright there chica?!” Adrian said." Yeah, I’m fine. I just hope the same can be said for this girl. “I said."

Olivia, Sam and Scott left Captain Moss’ office.“As if the damage already done by The Blessing was not enough,” Sam murmured.“The briefing is scheduled to take place during the second half of the day. I would like to get a bite before that,” Scot said, ignoring Sam’s whining.Olivia broke off from the group.“Aren’t you joining us?” Scott asked.“I’m good. I’m not eternally hungry like you,” she replied, taking a turn towards left.She headed to an iron bench in the garden. She would rather spend the afternoon alone than hanging out with her colleagues. Her mind could use a little peace. The last few weeks had provided her with life changing experiences. She had been disowned by her family, yet again. And to make the matters worse she had lost faith in friendship after what Jill, who was actually Tabitha, had done to her.She closed her eyes and leaned against the back of the bench. She wanted to resurrect Jill and give her another chance at life. Moss had disapproved of that, knowi

As soon as Hansel left, Captain Moss flipped open one of the files on his desk. He began looking at the two recent cases of abduction. He carefully read each and every detail about the history of the forelocks that had been abducted.The motive was unclear but he suspected that the abduction might have to do something with Harold Hurst – The Warlock Alpha. He made a mental note to talk to Maxine about this. Perhaps she would be able to give some insight into this. He marvelled if the hooded figure was Harold Hurst himself. Although his mind dismissed the idea the very next second, thinking that this might be a possibility, he decided to work on the abductions first.The news of the third abduction came in when he was busy reading the files. Meredith walked into her office with the message.“Paulo, the Music Demon has been abducted from the arena,” she told him. “The staff in the arena got in touch a minute ago.”“Do we have the full details,” he asked.“As much as I could gather.

He had no answer. Her memory had been erased. She had no recollection of her previous life. Although this made the life of those dealing with her at the Agency easier, it raised red flags. There was someone out there who knew about her powers.The fact that the girl thought of the runes as her toys was overwhelming. They couldn’t take them away from her by force, not at least until an ongoing investigation about her bloodline was concluded. Perhaps the child’s soul was bound to the runes. They had to make sure the girl won’t be harmed if she gave the runes away. For now, it was enough to warn her but the problem was she had to be calmed down. Her anger provoked her powers and that could be lethal since the girl hardly understood anything at this age.The witch doctor decided to put her under a spell. It was a hard decision to make but the child had a tendency to summon fires and floods as soon as she was offended.Today, when Samantha was brought into Dr Aegle’s office, she had asked

An hour later, Olivia walked into Moss’ office. She could see that the atmosphere was really tense. Apart from Hansel there were three other agents in presence. Olivia immediately recognized the two agents sitting opposite to Moss. One of them was agent Kai sparrow, a 16-year-old Native American warlock. He was a tall guy with dark hair and piercing hazel eyes. Although he was notorious for his arrogance, Olivia felt that he was very capable. The other one was Skin Walker. He was a shapeshifter and Olivia didn’t know much about him. He was around 17. He had the appearance of a typical rebel at high school. She didn’t however recognize the women sitting on the right. She was petite and had long hair braided into what look like a long tail thinning gradually towards the end. The braid was set onto one of her shoulders. She sat straight. Olivia noticed that she was looking at her with what she would call “a mixed expression”. She couldn’t help but wondered if the woman recognized her.It

The team decided on their course of action. Hansel would stay in the parabola and collaborate with Maxine and try to stop more abductions. Olivia was assigned to lead the team that would go to Chicago Illinois. Skin, Kai and Roxi were to accompany her. Olivia and Hansel decided that they would stay in touch constantly with each other and with Meredith.The next day Olivia, Skin, Kai and Roxy teleported themselves to Chicago Illinois. They landed close to location of the church and began waiting for their aid.“The Agency has a lot of sources in the human world. They understand our mission and approve of our ethics that’s why they provide us support, whenever needed,” she explained to Roxi.“I think our guy is here,” Skin said, pointing towards a middle aged man who looked like a stereotype of a banker.“I’m sorry, have you been waiting long?” he asked cheerfully.He introduced himself as Kevin Miller. He was a banker and lived in a beautiful villa on the outskirts of the city.“So you

After lunch break, Olivia hurried towards the main office. Too little time and she had too much to do. William and Alan along with another one of their colleagues had left on a mission, assigning most of the tasks to Olivia and Elizabeth. Elizabeth was a newbie who knew far lesser than Olivia. This meant that Olivia had to take care of a lot more stuff than she could handle and she was overwhelmed.“Olivia!” Elizabeth called out from across the hall.“Yes?” Olivia sighed.“Detective Morris is waiting for you in his office,” Elizabeth informed.“Who?... William?” Olivia asked with surprise.“Yes, he’s here to see you,” Elizabeth confirmed.Olivia looked at the open door on her left and walked in.“William? What are you doing here,” Olivia said entering his office. “I thought, you were…”“Alan and June are taking care of that stuff. Anyways, we have a pressing issue to attend to which is why I am here” William replied.“We?” Olivia asked.“That’s right, you too!” he said pointing to a
