Chereads / The Scion / Chapter 5 - Chapter 5

Chapter 5 - Chapter 5

the five days went by with no international incident occurring, people around the world felt a certain amount of hope that these peaceful days will continue to be enjoyed by everybody,

at the same time, Fu Xi Shi and Sinclair corporation were in full swing with the mass production of their new products. Guan Yu gave Sinclair the right to produce the X5 body Armor for a very reasonable point because the Sinclair corporation was the one who develop the technologically advanced micro hydraulic exoskeleton that made the armour more versatile in its movement and strength.

Sinclair corporation is renowned for its infrastructure creating a colossal building with the most advanced equipment to mankind, and with the creation of the exoskeleton full body suit, thousand of paralyzed and disabled people can finally move again but it was not designed to be used in that manner, it was to increase the productivity of their construction worker a hundred folds, but the wife of the Sinclair corporation president decided to offer their invention not just for construction but also help those who medically need it the most.

the two companies worked side by side to ensure mankind's survival, on March 28, 8:25 in the morning, the first batch of six hundred and seventy-five pieces of the x5 battle armour and the plasma railgun was transported and delivered to various countries all over, and General Allen Thompson used his influence and use the United Nations cargo planes to ensure those nations that orders will be received in good working conditions.

and to ensure that each weapon won't fall into the wrong hand a special microchip program scans and analyze the user's genetic code.

these DNA scanners were manufactured where Amelia was currently employed. all soldiers that were pre-selected based on achievement and good psychological aptitude will be the only person who is authorized to use this new tech and these people must provide all the needed background information including their DNA samples to General Allen Thompson.

as a former United nation Secretary-General for the Peacekeeping force, he was known to be strict when it comes to protecting the lives of the people under him. he wants to leave his military service with a good honourable legacy when he finally retires in two years and just accepts Guan Yu's offer to be a military defence attache of Fu Xi Shi.

standing exactly six feet tall with grey hair and blue eyes and at the age of fifty-six years old the General is a very traditional and old fashion guy, he views honour and family are the most important things that a man should pursue and protect always act accordingly based on rank age and experience in life.

but when the shareholders of Fu Xi Shi corporation told General Allen Thompson that the grand master's 27-year-old nephew will be the new clan leader he was a bit sceptical at first but when he saw and witnessed Guan Yu Liu Chen's actions and decisions this made him open and more malleable in viewing people traits and personality.

since then after five long years of working together, he considers Guan Yu Liu Chen a very honourable person and even sees him as his equal in terms of formality, and Guan Yu will respect him by greeting him with Baoquan li while addressing him as General even on social gatherings.

General Thompson orders his men back to the base and start writing the report concerning all the shipments and appoints his major to coordinate with the secretary of foreign affairs so each transport from point A to point B will be smooth, was personally overseeing all the cargo and decide to accompany the last shipment going to Kubinka facility in Russia.

he was sitting in the cargo compartment with 4 of his soldiers he received a call from Guan Yu informing him that the next shipment will be a month from now, and before meeting the Russian military counterpart he needs to meet with Dr Mikhail Artyom in Moscow the moment he gets there is new information that he needs to know, he wanted to discuss these new findings with General Thompson, but Guan Yu mentioned that has a prior appointment that he needs to address.

Guan Yu ended his call and place his phone back inside his jacket. when Ms Lin Siniang stood and walk beside him and place a folder on his table and mentioned all the documents are filled and everything was legally handled with discretion. when he heard a text sound coming from Ms Lin's pocket it was a very recognizable sound from a cartoon tv series that he watched before when he was just a kid.

Gun Yu was still reading the document when casually took a glance at his secretary, she was a bit embarrassed about what her phone text notification sounded like, and from the sound they were hearing, she was receiving a lot of them. her face was already turning red when Guan Yu told him she may take her coffee break now. she bowed down and slowly left his boss's side and directly went out of his office.

when she was walking across the hallway she finally took out her phone and look at the text she received. she giggled and couldn't hold her laughter. she saw a lot of pictures that were taken a few days ago when she was first introduced to Ramiel.

it was a picture of there wacky things they did, she was making weird facial expressions with Ramiel, and even Mr and Mrs Liu Chen didn't escape Ramiels wacky random selfies, everybody that was inside the old coffee shop at that time had their photos taken. there was even a selfie of the bodyguards making manly posses with Ramiel at the centre.

Ms Lin was about to go in the elevator and go down her phone rang and a call came when she answered it was Ramiel on the other line asking her if she wants to join him and Grandma Mao tomorrow that was Saturday in baking chocolate cupcakes for his friend in the orphanage, Ms Lin Siniang was ecstatic to hear it so she said yes.

she decided to get some coffee on the company lobby floor, Guan Yu was kind enough to place a coffee bar in the main lobby so all employees and personnel can enjoy a well-blended delicious coffee every day. even the cafeteria food dish is prepared carefully by the kitchen staff and cooked by a Michelin chef to ensure the quality and health of all of its personnel all of these are provided for free, and each employee no matter what the position may be has a full medical, accident, and death insurance.

Fu Xi Shi's main corporation are two connected buildings each has a floor size of 50 by 50 meters the first building facing the main road has 15 floors and connecting behind it has 30 floors where Guan Yu's office was located, Fu Xi Shi has sub 3 basement floor for parking and hidden under the parking lot basement was another underground facility that only 4 people has the authorization to access and enter.

Fu Xi Shi corporation is not the biggest nor the tallest building in the city, it was looking very average in comparison to other far bigger establishments that were surrounding them right in the very heart of the city,

but Fu Xi Shi was considered to be one of the major powerhouses in the business industry they have ventured into so many business transactions which is why 70% per cent of the majority of products that are being bought and circulating the market were made by Fu Xi Shi corporation.

Fu Xi Shi's business is all connected to electronics, medicine, agriculture, mining, oil, manufacturing food, and transportation, and now the biggest business progress is in weapons development.

Fu Xi Shi has made a lot of companies bigger by joining hands with them and building new partnerships to further expand their business to the next level. last two years ago they merge with an Indian textile Company and started the development of a lightweight kevlar fabric that was affordable was easy to manufacture they were able to secure a hundred million contract deal with a large nation that was having difficulty acquiring inexpensive but durable body armour. next Fu Xi Shi' and Korea made a joint venture in developing flexible durable screens, that can be seen in almost every non-conventional item.

because of their profound view towards doing business, thousands of people had their lives changed for the better upon working for Fu Xi Shi, all the upper management leaders are trying their very best to ensure all their employees are well-taken care of, you ripe what you sow as the old saying goes.

Fu Xi Shi's commitment to providing all the needs of its people who work tirelessly night and day, each personnel that is working in Fu Xi Shi were never neglected to have a good productive life base on skill, knowledge and, the right attitude toward one another. no matter who you are, where you came from, your nationality, and your ethnicity they treat you with respect and dignity. this is what Fu Xi Shi' has been doing for decades.

as you walk around the office area you can see different types of people, with different personalities and nationalities working hand in hand toward a better future.

but even with all these benefits and good qualities within a well-organized company, a handful of people within the company are still not satisfied with what they have. they still give in to greed and crave more than they need in life. they wear their mask perfectly working like the rest but deep down in their soul, they are unscrupulous and unethical in so many ways.

and like any company the Fu Xi Shi leaders can only hope that everybody that works inside has the same mindset of a true loyal hard-working employee.

when everybody saw Ms Lin they all greeted her with a smile, even with her title as Guan Yu's Personal Secretary she never used her authority to torment or abuse any personnel within the company. but everybody that is part of the first family fear and respect her.

for the rest of the normal four hundred people working at Fu Xi Shi, they see a lovely smart hard working woman, but some people, just hate her because of their selfish reasons. with a fake smile to be so envious of her thinking that they are more good-looking and more qualified to be the boss's assistant.

she was waiting as the tenth in line to order her favorite Caramel Macchiato coffee with a hint of hazelnut when she saw on the giant screen the recent news concerning Ms Eu-meh Fang's new scandalous activity with another rich Batchelor, and sadly her fame was deteriorating as a number of her endorsers suddenly cancelled all the commercial campaign that she already had signed and agreed to do.

but before the news ends a famous director was eying her to be part of a new tv show, the director even told the reporter that she is perfect for this particular role. most of the male employees were conversing with one another stating that she was still actually hot and a voice of a young woman greeted Ms Lin Siniang.

"good morning ma'am Lin Siniang, the usual?"

she politely answered yes. and took the drink and decided to wait in the lobby area until she received a call from her boss, she took out her phone once again and viewed the pictures Ramiel sent. she couldn't stop giggling like a teen. suddenly a notification sound rang and saw Ramiel was sending chat messages to her

she gave out big sigh.. and finish drinking her coffee, her feeling are all over the place, she can't stop smiling but at the same time feels embarrassed to go back to work and face Guan Yu her boss, so many things in her life were changing and these changes made her feel happy. growing up with nobody to support her and just being part of her daily ordeals was lonely, she thought the only thing that made sense was to fulfil her duty at any cost, but now being part of another person's life made her realize the things she didn't think would be that important in life.

while preparing to back to her duties the company alarm went on as everybody started to get weary Ms Lin saw her boss running toward her with ten of the company's top officers and ordered everybody to move, gradually a state of confusion erupted as they could hear people outside were running and screaming.

"Ms Lin go into the basement bunker and secure all our people"

a large new creature was spotted coming out of the ground in the east part of the city a few blocks from where they are. Guan Yu and the rest of the bodyguards with him were carrying a plasma railgun.

he commands his head guard to close all metal shutters so all in the windows of the lobby would give time to evacuate and prepare, as the metal window shutters were going down the head guard saw a horde of green-skinned creatures that were around 3 feet tall and were holding primitive weapons.

the head guard was not oblivious to unknown things he was trained to instantly react to what might be considered a threat. these creatures saw what he was doing and like a rabid animal, they ran toward the Fu Xi Shi main lobby.

Guan Yu saw this and shouted to leave all of their communication lines open, and told everyone with a weapon to conserve the railgun ammo for the bigger enemy, many of the Fu Xi Shi personnel were still too terrified to move so most of the ordinary security guards were trying their best efforts to assist those who were helpless, others just frantically called their family hoping to get a response that they are safe. Ms Lin Siniang including her staff were running all over the ground floor to ensure everybody was moving away from the lobby to seek safety.

normal procedures didn't apply to this particular scenario so most of the people were moved into their respective office areas and hoped no creature will able to breach the building window.

Ms Lin Siniang had the opportunity to access the guard office that was located near the staircase down to the basement, she made sure that all exit doors were securely locked, and she saw a few people hiding inside the guard room she had to drag the female attendant under the table and ask a guard name Mr De-leon who was going to retire this coming month, he was one of the first batches of guards who witnessed the company's growth, he was holding his family picture and praying that he will live thru this nightmare.

she told them to go up because starting from the tent floor and going upward all glass windows that were installed are 2-inch tempered Glass and even shatterproof against the heat and strong winds. and select the supply room then barricade themselves inside and do not come out until they announce that it is safe. a new female attendant was crying and couldn't stop, Ms. Lin Siniang kneel grab her by the shoulder, and spoke with authority.

"if you don't get moving and remain here you will lose your life. I am trying to protect you. but I can only do this much, you need to think of your safety."

"so please stop crying if you want to see your family again! go!"

as soon as they left she rummage through the metal cabinets hoping to get any weapon she found a retractable baton and a vest and even took rubber shoes that were lucky near her size that was left in one of the cabinets. but before leaving she made sure that all were safe by viewing all the CCTV cameras, there she saw Jiao long hiding in his room like a small child curled under the table.

"you are pathetic Jiao-long... you are weak and a useless person!"

seeing that most of them were safe, a guard came into the room and told Ms Lin Siniang that the green creatures has almost broken thru the metal shutter cover of the lobby windows she knew it won't take long until those things come inside the building. sadly the ground floor was designed and built more on comfort rather than function, so the metal shutters were a standard issue and the glass panels all around the lobby are just Insulated Glass.

when she went out to join her boss and the rest of the security team one of the guards shouted,

'those are Goblins!'

Guan Yu reacted by saying,

"you heard him men! these things are called goblins like the ones in your grandmother's storybook. lets us show these fools they mess with the wrong family."

one Russian guard was confused and was looking at Guan Yu...

они гоблины, как те, что были в сказках твоей бабушки.

ах! хм.. просто убей столько, сколько сможешь, ладно!

"they are goblin-like the ones in your grandmother's storybook.

"ah! hmm..just kill as many as you can ok!"

suddenly a loud crash as a few dozen of goblins rushes inside the lobby like ants, each guard used their FN P90 and secure the plasma gun strap on their back, they found out that they are like them mortals and had no mystical abilities these things lack training and with no actual fighting skills so it was easy. even Ms Lin Siniang was worrying for nothing they were like fighting a child.

Guan Yu saw that his guards were overpowering the attackers he sends out an order to divide into 3 groups the 3rd group will remain to kill all the goblins and ensure the employees' safety then the rest will follow him outside.

Ms Lin Siniang will be team 3, do not underestimate them even a small spider can kill an elephant with underhanded tactics so remain focused.

in unison, they all shouted,

"yes, boss!!"

as units, 1 and 2 got the opportunity to escape the goblin attackers they proceed to their real target as they were running civilians were running toward them and screaming the words snake, people were trampling on each other out of desperation and panic as a huge snake-like creature was following them from behind.

it was 25 meters long and its head was as big as a mini cooper car, this physical feature could make a full-grown ordinary man wet his pants out of fear. but the biggest issue was not its size but rather the acid that it was spitting from its mouth.

he gave his men a sign and it was to take caution and deal with the enemy as if it can think. Guan Yu made the first move as the remaining civilians were finally out of their way he ran towards it and using his left hand he

pulled out a Jiǔjiébiān nine section whip

and jump over its head while it tried to lunge at him, its pointed hook at the end of the chain whip pierce its one eye and latch on to its eye socket. the beast got more agitated because it was in pain, Guan Yu knew it might try to curl and start to roll and bash him on the street pavement. its tail was hitting everything on the swing path crushing an entire car like it was a can of beer. his shirt was getting ripped as the snake used the surrounding structures to scrape him off or just kill him, but he was wearing an X5 body suit even if he get pummeled to a hard surface he can endure it, ib doing this trial test actual battle was the perfect opportunity to know if it will function properly, and it was successfully manage to exceed his expectation, many soldiers wearing this suit will surely be save.

he pulled hard on the chain and the pain it received made the creature raise its head and expose its belly, more chains were thrown at it but the thick scales were preventing any of the hooks to wound it. quickly they decided to infuse the chain with their aura and tried again, to their amazement it penetrated its skin stabbing its flesh and hooking deep within its rib bone. they were using all of their Aura to restrain the creature plus each of Guan Yu's men also concentrating while attacking to manifest an energy field around their body to protect them from the creature's acidic spit.

people in the confinements of their office building saw this and capture everything on video, some even showed the event live, people saw how the Fu Xi Shi corporate boss and his 5 guards battle it out with a huge snake, meanwhile, Guan Yu finally orders them to bombard the beast head with the railgun.

and with that multiple piercing sounds were heard it was so fast and accurate that the beast didn't even have time to open its mouth. the street floor was pulverized with the tungsten ammo, and as the smoke cleared the snake head was unrecognizable. one civilian who was near the location openly mention on a live vlog broadcast that they didn't even use all the tungsten ammo on each gun. all six of them fire one shot each and it brutally destroyed the creature's face.

people around the world saw this and some even commented that mankind shouldn't be afraid anymore, millions of people saw this and gave birth to the idea that we need more of these kinds of people.

a netizen openly said that she found out they are being called ethereal.

the word ethereal became a trending topic. as more people began to gain interest in all related to the name and the creatures that are trying to invade earth.

at the same time, one of Guan Yu's men saw that there are still a few goblins stragglers in the area so he asked permission to hunt them all. he agreed and they went on the offensive. Ms Lin Siniang reported to Guan Yu that no were casualties among the company personnel.

Guan Yu told Ms Lin Siniang that there were still goblins freely moving around, so until they are all eliminated, sweep every corner of the building. even if these goblin creatures are weak against those who have trained to fight, a normal civilian will get killed if left unchecked.

"Understood boss."

as people came out from their hiding places, reporters and enthusiast gathered around the dead creature to personally see it up close and be the first to boast about it on social media. Guan Yu was sitting a few meters away from the creature, a research team from the institute of science and archaeology rushed toward him and their leader insisted that they have the authority to take the specimen to be studied, Guan Yu stood up and face the man and just pointed at the dead beast and said

"we were the ones who killed it, and how dare you come near it and proclaim it is yours!"

the man this budge and shouted that as a member of the leading team who was given full power by the United Nation to examine these things under the direct leadership of General Allen Thompson Dr Mikhail Artyom and Professor Mai Chenguang,

he even boasted that a well-known billionaire was their main research fund backer. people witness this man's attitude not knowing the person who was standing in front of him.

the man continued to mock Guan Yu and pointed out that a mere guard would stop them from doing their job. and told him that he was very lucky to even survive, and even told him was stupid to act on his gut instinct.

a fellow scientist went up to this man and told him the military will soon arrive and let them deal with this atrocious man. Guan Yu just went back to where he was sitting and took out his cell phone and saw that Amelia called him 26 times when he called her back Amelia's voice was trembling and was out of breath. and from the sound of her voice, she was crying.

Guan Yu said hello and at that very moment, she cried even more, and with a shacking tone, she ask if he was ok?

Guan Yu smiled and took a deep breath and told Amelia not to worry he was perfectly fine, they continued to talk while more people came due to their fascination. Guan Yu's guard came back and they were carrying the corpses of the remaining goblin that was hiding within the area.

as soon as they saw their boss the arrogant scientist even ask them to leave and stop walking within the restricted tape line that they place around the specimen. the lead guard was about to smack the living daylight out of him when, a military chopper suddenly landed a few meters away in an open parking area, a few moments later an army officer went down the helicopter and was greeted by the head scientists and told the office what was going on and he badly needs his help to settle the dispute between them and the people that killed the beast.

while waking he was very adamant that he was fully cooperative and even explained that it was their job to examine the specimen. there were so many casual observers and curious onlookers. as they were being accompanied by soldiers then they conducted crowd control, as the officer was walking near the disaster area.

Guan Yu was still having a conversation with Amelia, and saw the military officer approaching him, he told Amelia he need to cut their conversation short but be assured he will see her tonight after everything here was resolved.

while waking he was very adamant that he was fully cooperative and even explained that it was their job to examine the specimen. there were so many casual observers and onlookers. as the accompanying soldiers were conducting crowd control officer as he walked toward him.

Guan Yu was still having a conversation with Amelia on the phone, saw the military officer approaching him, he told Ameli he need to cut their conversation and rest assured he will see her tonight.

the officer receives a message by phone that a military cargo truck will be within the area in 5 minutes, he confirms and orders his team to follow the UN-sanctioned protocol. then after the officer approached Guan Yu and thank him for defeating the snake-like creature before it killed more civilians, the lead scientist once again called out their claims and force their right to take the specimen, Guan Yu's lead guard was irritated and called the lead scientist an imbecile and should know who he was disrespecting.

even before Guan Yu could act on this the office slaps the scientist which made him stop talking.

"I had enough of your nonsense! before you open your mouth and started yapping nonstop you should have done your homework you ungrateful piece of shit."

"do you even know who you are insulting?"

"this man is the main reason why you still have work! he is the one funding your stupid research."

then another voice could be heard behind the office, everybody turn around and saw Dr Mikhail Artyom overhearing their discussions and pointing out to that particular scientist that what the officer was saying is 100 per cent right, Dr Mikhail Artyom walked up in front of Guan Yu and bowed down to great their benefactor, Guan Yu gave his orders and started to travel back to his office as the rest of his men followed.

meanwhile, MrsMao was comforting Amelia and explaining to her that Guan Yu would not easily die in that manner, giving him the title of clan leader is not easily attainable, that person must be the embodiment of honour, discipline, power, and Guan Yu has those qualities so she should not worry too much.

Ramiel and Grandpa Tang were watching a new update about the supernatural events that were occurring all over the world, as of today, international law has been created with accordance to all the members of the United Nation to establish a governing association that will be created within each member of the country to all allow those empowered individuals or the Ethereal to be part of mankind's protection by forming their group and legally register all assets and ability and will rank base of each members power and skill capability to the main association.

these assessments are needed to ensure that this is a group or individual ethereal personal information will be known to the public to ensure proper social interaction among each other.

6 types of Leagues were created,

the Enforcers are a group of ethereal that ensure that all registered ethereal will comply with the association rules and establish law and order.

the Protectors are a group or individual ethereal that serve and work within their government to protect every known citizen in the country.

the Hunters are a group or individual ethereal track down and hunt any roaming creatures outside the danger zone, that will surely put their countrymen in danger.

the Gatherers is a group or individual ethereal that gather information thru experiments or research.

the Mercenary is a group or individual ethereal that gets hired to do any task associated with capturing or killing nonhuman creatures. most of them are retired military personnel.

the Delist is a group or individual ethereal that doesn't follow any of the association rules and thus does not have the legal right to use their powers freely

Mr Tang told Ramiel to watch attentively because even with all these new laws to ensure that these ethereal won't use their powers unjustly the balance of the positive yang and negative yang will be put to test, for mankind has been known to be easily corrupted and eventually will use their new found powers to their gain.

Ramiel at a very young age knew that there are just things in this world that even science can't explain so with that in mind he also knew that his daily life will never be every day ever again.

and with help of the world wide web sharing of information around the world made things more accessible and information was freely shared at a tremendous speed.

within 3 months, mankind have sufficient collective information with the help of great minds they were able a create a machine that can locate and determine the outbreak position that was named now called a D-Gate, as hundreds of orbital satellites are being accessed to relay new data all over the world.

the probability of locating a D-Gate was now 40 per cent, as soon as it physically manifests in our world the primary Ethereal association can now scan and determined its power output. so they can properly asses an effective countermeasure, within tent month D-gates can now be detected at 80 per cent accuracy and ranked based on the energy frequency it emits after the assessment it can now be handled with the utmost diligence from the dispatch group of ethereal who has acquired proper and legal zone license on the D-Gate confirmed location.

with this many engineers, technicians, and all available scientific minds are helping one another to fully understand and utilize each harvested creature that a particular league would kill large corporations and rich merchants saw this as an opportunity to gain more by funding these new endeavours.

most of the specimens that were acquired by battle are now legally owned by the ones who killed them because there are new raw and unknown materials that can be harvested from dimensional creatures.

most companies started to join the Etherea league as partners or primary sponsors to fully maximize the use of new materials in medicine weapons and even food.

because some of the high-rank creature's body parts especially the blood are known to be a good source of medicine that can cure any illness, even the leftover remains can be used as a fertilizer and it produces more crops in a very short time.

as 7 months passed by attacks continued all over the planet more weapons and new armour was developed from the process of the body part of the dead beast, all rooted specs that Fu Xi Shi and Sinclair industry developed integrating the harvested crystal on the dire wolves as its main power supply.

more types of life forms cross over our world, humanity didn't waste any time gathering information and learning from it, surprisingly most of these were already documented in earth's mythological folklore.

and some experts even theorize that those entities that inspired mankind to become part of our childhood were real, and at a certain point in our time when the world was still young, they accidentally crossed over to our world and got a trap and remained here.

the late Profesor Chenguang was the pioneer of this theory and because now his daughter was taken over his life and work became the final basis to name them upon similar characteristics and physical appearance.

because of the confirmation of these entities worth financially even non-Ethereal started establishing their league but without an Ethereal to support them, most members were dependent on weapons and wearing advanced exoskeleton body armour to heighten their skill.

after long hours and months of research, Dr Mikhail Artyom and his team have determined and noted that the stronger the energy output, the more powerful the creatures will come out, and 3 types of D-Gates were observed and recorded all over the planet.

Green D-Gate the inhabitants of this particular dimension are characterized as mostly humanoid animals types, that have a treat level of 5 to 40

Blue D-Gate the inhabitants of this particular dimension are characterized as a mythological type of creature far stronger than any creatures that came from A Green D-Gate that has a treat level of 50 to 70

Red D-Gate the inhabitants of this particular dimension are characterized as hybrid creatures far stronger than any creatures that came from A Green and Blue D-Gate that has a treat level of 80 to 100

but sadly it cannot count their actual number so caution is always implemented on each determined location because an above-average human being was at level 3, so even if a person is an ethereal fighting horde of goblins can be life-threatening and at times fatal.

but people are more concerned with the popularity of being an Ethereal than the destruction that was happening in poor countries, these Ethereals became celebrities overnight gaining fame and riches that would make any average working employee envious.

many more months have already passed and the development of technology to face the creatures that entered our world has improved drastically, more information about those beings is being recorded and categorized to be shared freely with everybody, and the attacks slowly increase their rank but mankind has now adapted and was now able to prepare effectively with minimal deaths.

all City leaders pass out emergency laws to prevent mass panic and death if a D-gate Would appear in their area. this prompted everybody to always be ready to move and relocate to safety shelters that the government created in case of an emergency alarm was heard.

emergency drills were conducted every other day, this made the kids annoyed and one of them was Ramiel would always give out a huge sigh! because those emergency drills would take so much time and always ruin his free time to play during school recess.

but gradually the majority of each metropolitan populace's daily life became normal, Human arrogance with their dependency on technology has been a cure and a poison at the same time.

after 14 months mankind's daily life came back to normal as more businesses are now running and circulating special materials among the people every new product would have small amounts of these special materials making life better for those who have money and power to spend.

within that time Amelia and Guan Yu's relationship grew deeper and more in love with each other, Guan Yu was kind enough not to ask for her hand in marriage knowing her past, and Guan Yu and Amelia took their relationship slowly. Everything went smoothly especially when a skinny local lawyer visited her 9 months ago and mentioned that her husband was requesting a divorce, without hesitation, she signed the papers within a week she was a free woman.

Ramiel became the top student in Ms Dolores Tesfaye's school and is now eligible to transfer to a public school, Ramiels is now 6 years old, and she became his non-official older sister slash babysitter and BFF and spends her weekends with Ramiel the two were un separable, Mr and Mrs Liu Chen would make the two attend personalize training sessions to further enhance their body and fix his Meridians vein points and open its pathway in the correct flow.

Ms Lin would accompany Ramiel just to make sure he won't get bored. as they do this activity in their backyard garden every Saturday and Sunday, they could see Guan Yu and Amelia sitting at their garden bench reading a book and just enjoying their moment together.

because of the positive energy that they each possess and convince that only a fool would dare to trespass on their happiness, they continue to live their daily life not knowing the things that will eventually change their peaceful life.

today Samuel Garcia was given a second chance in life, the correction facility administrator was sure and naïve that a person like him would have a change of heart after spending two years in jail, and now he was about a few feet from freedom, it was raining that day and the only thing that you can hear and see on the news while he was being processed to be set free as a rehabilitated man.
