The Future: Part 9: Encounter, Night time

Part 9: Encounter, Night time

Damon while walking in the streets of New KL was with a loud and unsatisfied stomach; in fact, he was just hungry. He noticed a bunch of guys walking down to an alleyway with strange hoods and masks. The masks was shining from where the hooded group were. At first Damon was hesitant about whether to follow the suspicious group to an exciting and dangerous place which he doesn’t know about or to Chinese restaurant which could result in his stomach being happy.
     He paused for a bit before following the mysterious group to the alleyway.
     “It’s not like I get to do this again when I’m old.”, he thought to himself as he walks sneakily and discreetly behind the hooded group. He went all sneaky-sneaky into the alleyway.
     Damon chose to be friends with the shadow as he makes his way to where the masked group were going. He made his way to an abandon building with a steel door shut from the general public. Just right behind that door was a person guarding it. The masked members said something and after saying so, the door was opened for them from the inside.
     “Fire, air, water, earth.”, said the masked individual. Damon however could not capture or hear what the person was saying because he was too far away and decided to choose another route.
     “They looked dangerous, probably it’d be stupid if I went in through the front door.”, thought Damon.
Inside the building was none other than Pyus and his sister, Milan. Her code name was Ice. Both siblings were on a stage with a few other members who had a distinctive uniform as compared to the others who were below them. Pyus goes to the golden masked-crowned man who seems to be leader of this underground organization.
     “Sir, I’ve said it before that the fool would get his ass handed to him sooner or later.”, said Pyus to the masked-crowned man.
     “It makes no difference. Our operations are still on-going as to your duties young blood.”, he replied as more members began to pile up.
     From the outside, Damon was having a hard time entering the building. He managed to find a way in but entrance was covered with spider-webs and what not.
     “If it weren’t for my curiosity, I would have ran away from all this shit.”
     He came to a halt when he faced a door which was locked from the other side. And so, he chose another route but this time it was a quick answer because most of the walls in the building were already broken down or too fragile. A single kick could break it. As soon as he reached the hallroom where most of the masked individuals were, he was surprised to see the amount of people who turned up.
     “This is crazy.”, he said.
From the point of view of the stage, the masked-crowned man stood up from his throne and gave a few greetings to those who came.
     “I thank you all for coming here tonight. I know it must’ve been hard for you to even come here but fear not fellow Naturals. We’re here to change that. We’re the answer your problems.”, he said.
     “So that must be the leader.”, Damon made a quick conclusion. “What’s with the mask though.”, he added.
     The mask-crowned individual then continued on with his speech, “To support me is to support your survivability in this cruel city. Sooner or later, those homosapiens will turn their backs against us. And the only solution to their tiny problem is to exterminate each and everyone one of us.”
     Damon was shocked when he heard the speech. He wanted to get away from there but was having a hard time doing so.
     “Shit, why is this place so confusing.”
Pyus went onto the stage, “Sir, we have to leave. The police are on their away. It seems someone gave out our location.”
     The mask-crowned individual agreed with Pyus’s suggestion and left the premise along with his top generals. On their way out, Damon unfortunately bumped on to them; he was coming from the opposite direction.
     “Who is he?”, asked Pyus.
     “How should I know.”, Milan replied.
     “Take care of this.”, said the masked-crowned man.
Pyus shoots out a few fireballs from his hands as the others left him. Damon with his agile body managed to dodge all of the fireballs and took cover behind a wall.
     “There’s no point in hiding. I could burn this entire floor with you along in it. Let me end your suffering now.”, said Pyus.
     “How about no?”, Damon sarcastically replied Pyus. Damon took a wooden stick from the floor and tries to outsmart Pyus who was being arrogant, knowingly that he had the upper hand. Pyus tired of playing cat and mouse starts shooting randomly from every direction.
     “Oh.. I am so screwed. I didn’t expect to end up in a Natural den. I am so screwed.”, thought Damon.
Pyus attempted to provoke Damon by calling him a coward and a normal human being. Damon unwavered by his provocations continued to hide from a hide distance while devising a plan to counter the fire Natural.
     “He must have a weakness. I’m sure I can use something here as a weapon.”
Damon throws the stick across the hallway; as a result, Pyus started throwing fireballs at that direction. Damon got close enough to push Pyus knocking him on the wall. Pyus was knocked out cold from the Damon’s push. Without wasting anymore time, Damon made a quick escape before the fire Natural wakes up from his sleep.
     The police were everywhere, surrounding the building from which Damon is in right now. Nuway and his partner were also outside the building, preparing to strike. In a communication van not far from the building was Nemesis cuffed with a few officers watching over him.
     “Are you sure they’re in there?”, said the Police Chief.
     “I’m sure of it.”, Nemesis replied.
     The Police Chief while at the screen orders his men to move in, “Arrest every Natural in there, bring them alive if possible. You have the green light to fire at will.”
The New Kuala Lumpur Police Department bust in the building fire a few rounds with the stun bullets; paralyzing most Naturals. The Naturals who were deemed as threats were shot down with the utmost prejudice. Nuway and Young were part of the first wave to enter the building; Young equipped with her knives and coins starts taking out the Natural threat with her amazing accuracy.
     A giant Natural who could transform his body mass fought Nuway pushing the cop on a wall and even managed to made a hole in the process. Nuway was fortunate because he was equipped with an exoskeleton suit given by the government to take down any Natural threat in the city. While all this is happening, Damon was lost in the building due to the previous altercation with Pyus. Loud gunshots can be heard from where Damon was. He went straight to where the gunshots sound were to look for an exit.
     Nuway in battle stance looked at his opponent a giant size man who was confident he could take him down.
     He spits blood on the floor and rubbing away the blood stain on his lips, “I fought bigger.” and starts beating the shit out of the massive Natural man. He broke the Natural’s hand and even shot his knee to immobilize his foe. Not far from Nuway, was Young who took down almost half of the Naturals in the hall.
     “Got it covered partner?”, said Young while throwing her knives.
     “Yeah, I got this.”, replied Nuway who looked exhausted.
     “There’s too many of them here. Radio in for backup.”, said Nuway.
The police officer who was beside Nuway radioed in for backups. At the communication van, the Police Chief was more than happy with the progress received the message and agree to send in another wave.
     “It seems we’re gonna have an early Christmas.”, said the Police Chief.
     Nemesis grins as he too looks at the screen. Pyus awakens from his sleep and left the hallway as soon as he stood up.
     “That kid got the better of me? This is impossible!”, he actives his Full Form, his body encased in the ever-flame and flies away from the scene by destroying the ceiling. He made his exit.
     Nemesis loosens his cuff and takes out the two guards who were stationed to watch over him. After doing so, he went for the Police Chief, “Now if I were you, I’d start crying.”, as he kissed the chief of police on the lips and commanded him to shoot everyone who was wearing a police uniform.
     The Police Chief went on a rampage as soon as he got out from the communication van. He killed a few of his own men not until the NRD agents showed up. Marsha shot the Police Chief with the stun rounds; knocking the chief out.
     Damon managed to arrive at the hall where everything was utter chaos, the police versus the Naturals. Both sides had a major lost but it was indeed a one-side fight. The police had the upperhand in terms of numbers and equipment.
     Nuway spotted his brother and rushed towards him.
     “What in the hell are you doing here?!”, he asked.
     “I was following this creepy dude with a mask on. I was suppose to go out for dinner.”
     “You shouldn’t have followed them. Shit. Stay behind. I’ll get us out of here. Young cover me!”
The brothers rushed towards the door; Nuway covered his younger brother by taking out the Naturals who were still hiding and standing around.
     The masked-crowned individual took a remote detonator from Ice,
“Thank you my dear.”, as he press the trigger.
     The moment the brothers were about to exit, the whole building exploded. Floor by floor the building went down in flames, engulfing almost 70 percent of the officers who were inside. Nemesis stood happily with a grin on his face across the street and witness the fireworks while Pyus too watched the fireworks went down from a roof.
     Young managed to escaped the building when her brawl with one of the Naturals led them outside the streets. Nuway and his brother however were...

Wish, I

Wish, I By Christian (a short and rushed story)   PART ONE A distant place, I rather not call home - I chose to be back here even after all is said and done. I could still hear the calls and whispers, are they a distant memory buried deep inside? ‘No, it’s not dear.’ a feminine voice echoes. I look at how solemn it gets wishing it could have been more - more than it is now. The embrace of your touch on my hair. Each morning greeted with a smile from the side of the bed.  ‘Dear, are you done? We’re about to be late.’ ‘Hold on honey, just grabbing something from the wardrobe.’ Shayne scurries. The wife starts the car while waiting for her loving partner to exit the house, she shuffles the radio to settle the mood. As soon as he gets out, he cannot wonder what else he forgot but the thought was brushed as soon as he opened the car door.  ‘What were you even looking for?’ ‘It’s a surprise honey.’ While driving to their destination, Shayne is talking vica

Time is a motionless entity that God himself have no power upon, For time breathes differently than us, It moves consistently ever flowing without the regard of our petty human presence, Time is almighty – to control time is to control all.

Kid Against The World: Four

Chapter Four Remember, you can’t love somebody without losing a part of yourself. I drive calmly in this rundown sad excuse of an automobile, I don’t know where we are going, but I’m feeling electric tonight with her by my side. We pull down the windows, and let the wind enter, her hand is out, making waves out of it, whistling a tune she is common with. I am very certain that I am nervous, being in a car with her. I mean I used Pabil’s car before, and he is cool with it, so I’m not anxious about that. It’s the fact that I’m in the same car with this Goddess, that’s making my heart beat racing like a Formula One race car.  We are closing in to the city now; Kuala Lumpur at night is just superb. Forget Paris; forget New York or London, Melbourne, none of that could compare the rawness of Kuala Lumpur. The bikers riding the roads, the homeless trying to get some food, the youth falling in and out of love, all happen under the sleepless nights of this city. She takes a can of be
