Ten years into the future, people of Earth have become advanced in technology. However, tragedy strikes again, killing millions all over the world. With no vaccine or cure, scientists sought other methods. A well-known scientist, Dayo Johnson, creates the Personifid in Nigeria, providing a chance to live forever in an artificial body. Meanwhile, something much darker is at work. A failed experiment of an old project is on the loose, killing people. Perhaps the New World is not as perfect as it seems.

iRobot: The New World Epilogue
The President's Private VillaAso RockAbuja“Is she awake? Did it work?” The President leaned forward to look at Third.Ire found it hard to address her as Fola since she tried to kill him a lot. The neurologist they knew as Dr Adams watched as the President bustled about like a mother hen.Third roused awake and looked at the President with a blank stare. She blinked twice and sat up. “Stephen?”The older man burst into tears. Ire grinned and nodded to Dr Adams. They were fixing Yomi's damages one by one. While there was no clear evidence aside from Temi's testimony, General Otunba remained Chief of the NSS. They locked scorpion behind bars, and Yomi turned up dead one night. Temi had been frenzied, calling it injustice, and Ire agreed. Ire met Temi on his way out of the Villa. “No news?”Temi shook her head. For the past year, they searched for their parents and Elijah. It was like they vanished from Earth. Perhaps they did if Elijah used the teleportation device. “They are goin

Ovic IncorporationAbuja“How about we recreate the vaccine you made?” Elijah suggested.“No. There is no time. We need to destroy everything here except for the footage of the truth about Ovic and its leader.” Dayo hacked a cough. He had put his wife back on the bed.Elijah leaned back to avoid getting infected.“I am sorry,” He said and cleared his throat. “There is a self-destruct button for emergencies.”“What sort of emergency protocol is that?” Esther asked, bewildered.“Have Nok set it on once the recordings are complete. Elijah, I need you to listen to me careful and remember the vaccine formula.” He listed them out, and Elijah repeated it with him.“Can we go now?”“I can't.

The United Nations headquartersNew York.The doors glided shut behind them as Temi trudged with Scorpion into the lobby of the UN. The structure of the building looked like a book, but larger, taller, and more sophisticated.Scorpion and Temi took to the route meant for tours. Yomi had instructed Scorpion to linger before bringing Temi up to the General Assembly Hall.Temi eyed each mini flag with false curiosity. She identified a familiar green and white flag and exclaimed, “Nigerian flag.”Every person around gave her an amused look. Well, except Scorpion. He grunted and pushed her along.Temi let him push her across the hall. A chattering group of people walked towards us. If she could run through his people, she might find somewhere to hide. There was nothing to distract him with. The people were coming closer.She turned to face Scorpion. S

The Davidson ResidenceAsokoro1 at noonIre sat under the tree, unable to concentrate on one issue. On one hand was his captured family and on the other, his friend.After Elijah explained the truth to him, he left the room without another word. Elijah had killed those people. His friend was a psychologist and had nanoparticles running in his veins.Ire did not know what to do. The one who had helped him and his sister a lot was more dangerous than a thermonuclear bomb. There was nothing he could do except stand by Elijah's side, just like he did for Ire and his family. Besides, Elijah was family.A shadow stood beside his seating one. “I am sorry.”He lifted his head to look at his sad friend. “It is okay.”Elijah looked at him with surprise. “It is?”Ire rose to his feet and nodded. “It is. You are family. Let's go rescue Temi,

The Davidson ResidenceAsokoroTeleportation.Elijah had joked, but Ire took it seriously. Now, his friend searched for all theories on teleportation.“If my dad could bring my sister back to life, I can create teleportation,” Ire had said.His fierce dedication terrified Elijah and silenced him. He, Esther and Richard (and the Artificial Intelligence, of course) helped in any way they could.“The Bermuda Triangle is a splendid example!” Ire continued to blubber. “The earth's natural magnetic field interfered. This is because of hexagonal clouds creating 170 mph air bombs full of wind.”“So are we going to get ourselves a hexagonal cloud?”“No, silly,” he continued to read from the screen Alpha conjured. “If matter can go through magnetic fields at a fas

The Davidson ResidenceAsokoro“We have to get them out of there!” Ire yelled. He struggled not to burst into tears. Didn't they understand? It was his entire family in that man's control.“And we will,” Elijah said in that annoying, reassuring voice. To his chagrin, he felt himself calm at the sound. “We need a plan. If you just barge in there, we will end up in a worse situation.”“What do you have in mind?” Ire asked, concentrating on his friend, who laid his head on the table.“Figure out what Yomi wants to do with them first.”“He needs the cure to the Sevil Virus from them,” Richard spoke up. He leaned forward in his seat and steepled his fingers.“Which is Temi. But no one knows how he created the Personifid.”&ldq

Press ConferenceAbuja14/4/203010:00am“Yes, and thank you. Our finest contractors would complete the project by the end of the month.” Stephen finished with a charming smile.“Wait!” A reporter called, waving her mic in the air. Having got Stephen's attention, she said, “Mr President, you have made no comment concerning the accusation against you. Did you beat up Dr Yomi Adedeji?”Every person in the room hushed and regarded him with anticipation. This action unnerved him.“Do you think I would do such a thing?” He asked with a gentle smile.The people looked more confused than before. They whispered to one another and curiously eyed him with a raised brow. If he told the truth, they would believe it in a heartbeat without understanding his reasons. If he

Ovic IncorporationAbujaAfter he had patched up the incision he made, Yomi ordered Third to take Temi to her Dad. Halting in their steps, they faced a white door. Temi had never felt so nervous in her life. She was only meeting her father after a long time. The thought swirled around her mind, making her scared.If she told him all that happened in his absence, he would not be proud. He would frown and look at her in a disapproving manner.She trained her eyes on Third's black contact boots and not in the least fascinated by it. But since it took her mind off her father's disappointment, she would continue to stare. The shoes moved, and quietly Temi followed it.A loud crash and loud squeaking drew her attention. On the floor laid a syringe. “Temi?”“Dad.” She dared not look him in the eye.“What are you doing here? I thought I told you to—”

AsokoroAbuja11:35amThe ride to Asokoro had taken longer than Elijah expected. He took notice of the aristocratic structures that grew outrageously bigger and fancier with every building the auto-trans passed.It finally pulled to a stop some metres away from the Asokoro Island. Elijah trekked the rest of the way and stopped in front of the large silver gate. The plaque on the gate assured him he was in the right place.“How may I help you?” A soft, robotic voice asked.It dawned on Elijah that he did not know what name Ire called himself undercover. If he replied with Ire's name, he might get exposed. What was he going to do? Unless someone expected him to say Ire's name and have him locked up? This might really be a trap.Elijah backed away from the gate. How was he supposed to contact Ire now?“Things did not go as you planned?” Alpha asked.&n
