Chereads / The Boy From Ectopia / Chapter 11 - Chapter Eleven: Nip in the Bud

Chapter 11 - Chapter Eleven: Nip in the Bud

The first place Kein found himself when he came out of the portal was in the sky. He looked around his surroundings and found out that those parts of the energy core that followed them to this planet weren't absorbed by their bodies; rather, they were hanging around the sky in the form of air.

He tried calling for them to absorb them but none was coming his way. And he found it very strange. He tried for the second time, but still nothing.

" Why can't I absorb the energy? I am still a member of the royal family, so why can't I absorb it? Or is it because I am on another planet?" Kein was confused.

Then he looked down at the ground and saw some tiny houses scattered around on the ground. 

He was in the air so everything appeared tiny.

As he was still looking at the floor, he didn't know when he lost his balance and started falling. It was as if there was a great force pulling him down.

He continued falling until he used some of his powers to balance himself in mid-air. 

'Hmm, this is weird. Why am I not flying here as I used to do on my planet? And what's this force pushing down? I hope this won't be a disadvantage to me because I hate weakness' Kein thought.

He was still struggling to balance himself on the sky even with him using his powers.

But later on, he succeeded in overcoming the gravitational force pulling him down with his powers and took off, flying towards the east side of the city.

HEADQUARTERS

SPACE INSPECTION AGENCY (S.I. A)

GROUP 3 ( ALIEN CONTROLLING DEPARTMENT)

In a security room, surrounded by computer engines and military men, a commotion was going on.

An unexpected thing occurred that kept everyone in the room in wonder.

In this room, every computer was turned on and one particular thing was showing on the monitors of over a hundred computers in the whole room.

On the computer screen, a boy with golden hair was hovering in the sky, looking around as if everywhere was strange to him.

" Captain, please come over, you need to see this. It's an emergency" 

A bulky man with muscles everywhere and donning a military uniform came to where the man that called him was.

" What's the emergency?" He asked

" Look" 

The man looked and saw the same thing everyone had seen. But on the screen, the boy was struggling to balance himself in the sky.

" Who is that?" the bulky man asked, stunned.

As far as he knows, he knew that no human being could fly and he also knew that for this boy on the computer to fly, he wasn't human.

" I think is an alien who sneakily appeared here without our satellite notifying us of his appearance"

The bulky man kept his focus on the screen to see if he would be able to point out any difference between the alien boy and them but couldn't pinpoint anything. 

Apart from the golden hair which was covering his pointed ears, nothing else seemed odd.

" It looks like he is having a hard time balancing in the air," the bulky man noticed.

" Yes. That is because he is being acted upon by the gravitational force. Because every planet has its gravity and differs from each other.  Maybe he used to fly freely on his planet but earth's gravitational force is much" 

" Zoom the face, let's capture it. Because he might be a great danger to our planet and might camouflage well with us and destroy us secretly. So we need to take caution before he does" the bulky man commanded and the other man started zooming the video.

The video appears blurry. It was as if it was taken from afar, that was why they couldn't see Kein's face. But before they could zoom in to see his face, Kein sprints off, heading to the east side of the city.

" He ran off!" 

" What!?" the bulky man exclaimed, " Danger is on earth. Everyone gather up we need to catch and nip this Alien in the bud before he does harm to our home" 

With that, Thousands of soldiers marched out to go and subdue the alien before anything got out.

Carisa found herself laying on the ground in a forest when she woke up. 

Her head was pounding as she woke up. It was as if someone was hitting her head with a hammer or an iron rod.

She tried remembering anything but couldn't. It was as if her memory was wiped out.

Even what happened before she came here and how she got here she couldn't remember any.

She looked at herself and found out that she was very dirty. Her clothes had been torn into pieces, what was left was a piece of clothes material covering her, the twin on her chest and private part.

She tried to remember anything else but couldn't and her head kept pounding like crazy.

' Where am I? What am I doing here? How did I get here? And who am I?

She continued asking herself thousands of questions but couldn't answer any of them.

Then she heard a cracking bush sound not too far from where she was and stayed calm to avoid noticing.

The noise kept going for some time until it stopped and Carisa stood up. She started walking away, not having any direction in mind.

She kept walking for some distance until she heard the voices of some hunters in the forest and started heading towards them remotely.

Everything seemed strange and she couldn't remember who she was, who her brother was, what happened on her planet, or the reason she was her.

Everything left her brain.

She marched slowly towards the hunters, not trying to make any noise until she met the people to whom those voices belonged.

There were about five of them in the bush, some with cigarettes and others with just their hunting guns.

She stood there in confusion, " What are they?" She asked herself.

Then she tried again to get closer to them but mistakenly stepped on plenty of pieces of dried leaves and noise got out, alerting the hunters.

" Wow look what we got here," the first said in admiration of the beauty in front of him immediately as he turned.

" And she has a very nice shape" another commented

" Maybe God has decided to reward us for our hard work today" another chimed in.

Then they all looked at each other with lust in their eyes before going over to grab Carisa.
