On a prosperous farmland within Valaris where numerous fauna and flora life forms resided, a young man was operating a tractor to transport a bale of hay from the fields to stockpile them into a barn. Though it was the sunny season, that area usually experience unpredicted rain showers. Thus this was often done to safeguard the stock’s quality.No one else was there at that area of the ranch to lend their assistance to the young man so he had the day’s work cut out for him. Feeling tired, he parked the tractor outside the barn and went around the side where a miniature water tank was to get some drinking water to quench his thirst. The faucet was positioned over a concrete sink, this was where he positioned himself to interact with the water.After refreshing his stomach, he turned the spigot out some more which generated a higher pressure of water. The youth lowered his head underneath the faucet and let the water flow all over his bleached hair to cool his head. During this messy pr
In a neighbouring region of Thains known as Altoki, there was a government-funded research centre situated in the heart of the land where no civilians were allowed to ever venture without the proper authorization from the top brass.Altoki wasn’t as developed as the other states in Valaris, mainly facilities and compounds pertaining to Cronus Research Centre occupied this region. The most astounding structure was the main headquarters for the CRC. It was such a majestic building that a person from Thains could see its peak if they were using binoculars.A group of scientists were tending to their important research within the most secured part of the facility where a multibillion-dollar contraption was being crafted. Various mechanical, plasmatic and magnetised components were intricately connected to each other to create a rudimentary time machine almost the size of a basketball court.The time machine was in its beta testing phase and required the utmost attention and care from skil
Chad Berkley assisted in hosing down the Vaud siblings, getting them clean enough to gain entry to the bathroom inside his house. While doing this, he noticed something strange about Silvia. For certain she and her brother looked like they were out of their territory of familiarity, but the peculiarity I mentioned was more of a supernatural one.Whenever the water touched Silvia’s skin, the residual droplets seemed as though they were being attracted to the centre of her body where they later evaporated swiftly. Due to Chad’s incessant staring at Silvia’s abdomen, she thought that he was having lascivious cravings for her body and turned away.“Do you mind not staring so much? You’re making me feel uncomfortable.”“Huh!” Chad just now realized how the situation must have seemed. He hurriedly averted his eyes and apologized. “Sorry, I ah… I didn’t mean to stare. It’s not what you think. I was just looking at your… ah… never mind.”Chad didn’t know how to clarify his intention for being
“Hey did you hear what I just said?”“Huh?”Sherlock’s question brought Chad out of his pensive mode. “You look lost there for a moment. I can tell that you find this hard to believe.” He touched his shoulder and told him, “Don’t stress your brain young man, we will collect all the necessary data and be out of your hair in no time.”“Mr Urchard we’ve found something!” A CRC agent within the barn brought an urgent issue to Sherlock’s focus.“I’ll be right there.” He nodded his head at Chad before following the agent into the barn. “What did you discover?” Sherlock moved briskly to the area of interest.They stopped at the back of the barn at the broken fence where the cattle escaped from. A female agent was operating one of the Quantum Resonance Transponder Scanners just over a pile of filth. The device was firing an array of green laser beams that were collecting vital data from the dung pile.“Sir take a look at these readings?” She showed the interface to Sherlock who could better u
Silvia and her little brother, Amich were having a joyous time in the shower despite the ordeal they went through just a few hours ago at Guillume Mountain. Aromatic bubbles were dancing all over their bodies, making them the freshest they’ve ever been in their entire lives. They willingly drowned themselves in the essence of their bath to further relax their troubled minds and distract themselves from thinking about the members of their colony who were ruthlessly slaughtered by the Grand Inquisitor’s acolytes.During the siblings relaxing bath, Amich’s keen sense of smell started picking up an array of scents separate from the scented detergent present in the bathroom. He thought Silvia should be aware of what he was smelling so he brought it to her attention. “Sister, I smell multiple warm bodies moving around outside.” “What was that Amich?” Listening to what her brother told her, Silvia thought it needed inspecting. Therefore, she turned off the shower and stepped out of the tub
“Huh! This is bad.” Silvia’s state of mind became out of balance with nature all of a sudden. This shift altered the performance of her ritual. The tasty fruits that were manifesting in her hands crumbled to dust.“Sister, what are you doing?” Amich was angered when he saw the food he was supposed to eat crumbling to pieces. He began rummaging Silvia’s hand but all he grasped were broken pieces of dried clay.The reason why this ritual failed was due to what Silvia discovered while her consciousness was still one with the wind. She saw an organized squadron of CRC agents heading their way along with their far-seeing drones and fancy tech.“Huff! Huff!” Coming out of her trance, Silvia’s eyes lost their emerald lustre; also she was panting heavily.“Sister, what’s wrong?” Amich could sense her fears based on her terrifying expression along with her erotic heartbeat.Catching her breath, Silvia said to her brother sounding hasty, “Amich we have to go. I believe those people we saw back
Silvia and Amich travelled a distance from the railway until they ended up beneath an abandoned overpass that was rusted and hadn’t been used for ages. Its disuse was evident by the various amounts of flora life forms growing all over its dilapidated structure.“You can rest here while I go find you some fresh blood.” Amich carefully eased his sister down on the grassy part of the ground where the rays of the sun couldn’t reach based on its tilted handle in the sky coupled with the supporting concealment of the overpass.They had been on their feet for almost half an hour since their departure from the railway. The reason why it took them so long to arrive where they were currently was because they were searching for a wild animal that had enough blood to support Silvia’s regeneration.They couldn’t find any suitable candidate because Amich’s potential was being restricted by the aid he was offering Silvia. Her leg was still reconstructing very slowly and the process seemed to be taki
Early 14th century, Vermont Province, the central region of Astasia was in a major uproar. The once peaceful and prosperous capital that was famous for its inventive minds, intricate architecture, coupled with its noble bloodlines and largest cattle form was currently under siege by a devoted group of armed crusaders who were deployed from the cardinal Cathedral in south Verbeck.The city was being pilfered for silver and other scraps as these saintly crusaders, clad in white vestments decorated with the holy cross, went from door to door with their oppressive mien demanding various cooperation from the citizens who were deep in fright.The Commanding Knight of the lead squadron that was currently roaming the commoner’s residential district was reading from a special papyrus scroll while being closely guarded by his fellow devotees.“Citizens of Vermont this is a royal decree from his holiness of Verbeck Cathedral, Ezeus Teppesh! The Grand Inquisitor has commenced a nationwide manhunt
