Chapter 32 - The Heartbroken

As Reece, Brook and Brody along with Jake and Cece had came in to do their probation work but little did Jake and Cece know is that they don't know about the truth.

They dont know that they are actually in a simulation by an evil scientist. Reece was then pulled aside by Brody and he had something he needed to ask.

"Well you see, I was wondering if you would be willing to hold onto a secret type that may be dangerous to anyone who wields it. It's the power of Resurrection.

Whoever had died can be resurrected but they turn into a zombie, I was almost about to revive someone but even someone like me can not be trusted with this power.

So I am offering you this, can you hold onto it until I can find something or someone that I can get rid of it with?" Reece then thought about it and accepted the offer.

As he gave them this power of Resurrection, Reece began to question his loyalty to the group, I mean he wasn't like a flaw but he had left Andre and Lucy to die.

And he doesn't know who may be next, him, Brody or Brook, this was something that was going to become worse that Reece had thought about it more.

As they were finished, Reece went home to relax until he was encountered by Jake who he said needed his help, as he followed him back to his home.

Reece then thought what was there for him to see, as Jake opened the window, he saw a girl who'd looked like she was Imprisoned by Jake, As Reece questioned this.

Jake said about how she uses her powers to control him, but as he questions him if why he doesn't leave her, he replied with, "because I love her and even though she has done something bad to me, I still love her.

Reece then asked why he came to him about this and he says, "because you know women better than me so I'd thought...." Reece then hugged him and told him to let her go.

As he did so, Reece decided to stick around and get to the bottom of why she would control Jake, "The reason I did this to you was ....

I was sick and tired of you hanging around with your mates, you smoking, you're also drinking and its makes me wonder if you really love me".

She cried as the words came out of her mouth and they did, so did Jake's heart, he didn't realise how much pain he was putting on his girlfriend.

He then got on one knee and said, "I'm sorry, I know you won't forgive me but I should've realized the pain you were going through because of me.

I admit that I'm not perfect but that doesn't mean that I hate you, I should've done a better job as your boyfriend. So I got this to say.

I want to start over, I want you to live the live that you should've experienced and not this grimy and painful life, I put I'll change for the better".

She felt convinced by this and forgave him, Reece then left them to give them their personal space. As Reece made his way home.

He started to see Lucy again, as he did, he began to think that he was hallucinating since he wasn't bearing immortality anymore.

Reece then began to walk home and think of a way to stop this whole simulation, soon for the better or for the worse.
