Kalen grew up in Sicily City, a relatively small city when compared to the other big cities in Camelot.Due to the introduction of implants, children from the age of 10 hardly any physical friends. Once Kalen received his implant at the age of 10, he was introduced to the virtual world.His childhood friends became a distant memory, as the curiosity of this world overwhelmed them. They would spend less time together, as they rather spent their time on the internet or learning new knowledge through their implant.He did make some virtual friends, but they were not close as they never met in person.His home situation was different from friends his friends, as his parents were knights. They rarely stayed home, as they deployed to various places for missions and other government assignments.He would spend his time on his implants, has his parents were distant from him. They spent their time serving their country on their deployments.They refused to hire a nanny or maid servants for the
Kalen quickly arrived in the nearest town, as he inquired about the name of where he was. He found out that the town was close to Panama City.Panama City is a highly developed city in the southern region of Confederate States of America. The city is more developed than Sicily is.He asked for directions but discovered that Panama City was not the destination the wristwatch was giving him. He asked the watch on where it is trying to point him to and discovered that it is a small town that mainly deals with fishing and agriculture.It is hard to see communities relying on agriculture and fishing as their main source of income. Everything in the world was focused on technology.Despite this, agriculture and fishing are still an indispensable part of humanity as it provides food for humans. Unless a technological gadget is created to where humans don’t need food to survive anymore, the humans will never abandon agriculture and fishing.With the increased technological advances in the wor
Whoosh!! The wind howled fiercely as Kalen ran to the policeman head-on. The policeman waves his baton, trying to strike him, but in Kalen’s eyes, the man was just too slow.“Sorry bro,” he thought as he quickly dodged the blow. He expertly retrieved the baton from the policeman, while conveniently knocking the man out with a strike to his neck.He turned to continue forward but was shocked to see 5 policemen were moving towards him from his front. He glanced behind him to see the other 2 policeman approaching him. He knew that these men were well trained and were top notch in catching criminals.He observed his surroundings, while making rapid calculations in his head. His initial plan was to give the police a hard time catching him, but in the end be detained by them.Due to his outstanding but controlled maneuvers, he was confident that the terrorist organization would break him out to make him earn their gratitude and have him join them as payment. One of the biggest and well-know
Kalen woke up to see himself in a room with very dim light. The dim light, paired with the silent atmosphere painted the room to look like a torture chamber that was used in the old fictional movies.After he woke up, he was very self-conscious, as he remembered everything that happened to him before he was knocked out. He glad and heaved a huge sigh of relief, as this meant he was not drugged.He calmly glanced around, trying to see his surroundings more clearly. Suddenly, the dim light brightened as the door to the room opened. He squinted his eyes, as he frowned as he tries to adapt his eyes to the change in light intensity.The man who opened the door came in, he recognized him mainly because of the vibe he exuded.This was the first time he saw the guy’s face under the bright light. He knew he was in a very dangerous position, as he was deep behind enemy lines. He felt nervous but did his best to calm his beating heart and act like a regular criminal.“Why did you lock me up in t
Recruits like Kalen were many within the Red Water Legion’s base as they trained with vigor. He played along, as they taught them basic marksmanship and fighting techniques.He later figured out that the terrorist group stopped in this base to train the recruits. He sighed, as he watched the recruits train in high spirit, trying to outdo each other in results. They wanting to stand out for the leadership.After hours of training, he finally brought his training results up a bit, to the point that he was matching with the top recruits. He was drawing gasps and dirty looks from the other recruits, as they saw him start training just a day ago.After the day’s training, he quietly entered his assigned room, together with 7 other recruits. He didn’t try anything funny, as he knew that he was being watched and monitored, to further confirm if he was really a stray criminal.A new routine started for him, as he trained daily with the recruits. It was a boring routine to, but it was a missio
For the rest of the day, training continued as usual, as Kalen continued to best the other recruits in marksmanship, close combat fighting, and other areas the organization focused on in their training.****************************************************************The following morning during their training session, the base commander for the first time visits them. Kalen was the probably the only recruit that already met the commander before. All the recruits greeted him, as the commander addressed them.His burly and muscular figure was enhanced further when he faced the recruits from an elevated platform. After a week of indoctrination and training, there were already some fanatics in their midst., as they shook with excitement, knowing that this was the overall leader of their base.The commander first announced to them that they will all graduate today, which clearly shows the difference between the standard military training and the farce of training, done by the terrorist or
The terrorist group traveled deep into the nearby forest, to ensure they were not followed before they stopped to rest and do a death count. They suffered a huge loss from the battle, as they lost 60 recruits from the original 115 recruits and lost 20 veteran soldiers. The loss was huge, but it was within their tolerance range. After the death count, the commander finally came out to meet the soldiers. “There have been some unexpected changes,” he announced. “The old soldiers are already familiar with this, so here is my advice for the recruits. There is a high chance that the local forces of all nearby towns have already deployed their forces to intercept us. You wonder why we didn’t clash aggressively with the local forces.” “Yes, we could have killed them completely, but in return, we would have surrounded from all sides without any way to escape. We would have won the battle but lost the war.” “Get prepared, because we will be clashing with a strong and very prepared oppositi
Rustle!! Rustle!! The forest leaves swayed gently to the rhythm of the wind, as activities begin in the temporary terrorist camp.Kalen joined the other soldiers, as they checked their weapons, before proceeding to load their resources for the inevitable battle. After taking the armor yesterday, he went over to the other armory where they stored the normal weapons.In there, he dropped his old gun, exchanging it for a better machine gun and a sword made from reinforced steel. Almost all the other newly graduated terrorist soldiers made the same decision.He was assigned to be in a vehicle, at the forefront of the formation of vehicles. The 2 high-grade warriors that fought in yesterday battle, was in the same car with him. The engines of the vehicle roared to life, as they started moving forward in an orderly fashion.Vroom!! Vroom!! The vehicles moved with such momentum like they were going to war as their hardened tires left deep trails behind in the forest surface.Well, their situ
