Distress Signals Book Novels & Stories

The display screen lit up with four erect heat signals and one heat signal collapsed on the floor. Ben activated the frequency interrupting signals on his dial. He gestured Frank and Shadow to convey with his fingers that he would take the ones on the right, Shadow to deal with the ones on the left and Frank to provide cover to the one on the floor. Frank and Shadow nodded to confirm understanding. Ben signaled the countdown with his fingers – 3…. 2…. 1….

"Why is this part red, Rain?" "There seems to be something under the ground, but I don't know what. Maybe mines? All we need to watch out for are these green dots. I think this is some sort of distress alarm, which will emit a signal every few minutes and may make a sound if anyone stepped on the sensor." "They flash alternately, that means there's a set rhythm so no one gets through to the end?" Flower asked. "Yes. But I can arrange where all the signals will break at the same time and we can get through. If we stay in any area of ​the ground while the signals are moving, we won't get caught."

Whispers started up, assaulting my ears with hundreds—no, thousands—of disembodied voices. My fingers had just grazed the cover of the book when Sterling’s voice filled my mind via the mind-link. “Something’s wrong, boss. I just sensed a major disturbance on the island.” I froze. Slowly, I pulled my hand away. “What is it?” I asked. “Death.”

“You need to breathe.” I looked up at him, exhaustion evident in the dark circles under my eyes. “Breathe?” I echoed, voice tight. “How am I supposed to breathe when every word, every move I make is under a microscope?” He leaned against the edge of my desk, crossing his arms. “Because panicking won’t help. Marcus set the trap, yes, but you’re not walking into it blindly. We know the moves. We know the angles. And we control the responses.”

"The Great Voice in the market square died. The screens in the district captain's office turned to black glass. The elders say a curse has traveled up from the south, from the green lands, to punish us. Who are you to shelter in the house of the wires?" I didn't hesitate. I stepped forward, completely ignoring the dagger at his waist, and extended my hand. I wasn't holding a weapon; I was holding a copy of The First Signal. The black ink was still slightly damp, catching the harsh glare of the midday sun. The scout lowered his blade slightly, his eyes shifting from my face to the paper. He hesitated, then took the sheet. His fingers brushed against mine, and for a second, I felt a faint, res

she announced proudly, and Leonardo's eyes twitched. "Then why did he send the distress signal? Wait, if he sent the distress signal, shouldn't more people come here? Or are they all in danger?" he asked curiously, having wanted to ask all afternoon. "It doesn't work that way. The signal can only be heard by the closest fang member, and if after the third signal no one answered, it will be sent to the headquarters. Since I answered, no one else would be coming!" she explained. "This is all part of our training. After all, the fangs may have to go to war with the rest of the Ashas sooner or later," she added with a grim look as she began walking back towards the warehouse.

He froze dead in his tracks. Every drop of color drained from his face. His lips trembled, but the sound that came out of him was barely held together. "M-Mom… what are you doing here?" Leonard looked down at him chillingly, as if staring at a dead man walking. "The watch on Richard's wrist is embedded with a high-level distress signal exclusive to the Shaw family. The moment it's activated, I receive it as long as I'm within a hundred-mile radius. Theodore, take a wild guess. What else did I receive besides the distress signal?"

The streaks of wind hit her as she speed towards the location where the signal was sent. Her heart was pounding fast and loud. It was emotions she hasn't felt in a while, back when she still let herself to care about others. "Alice, where are you?" It was Carl’s voice from the ear piece. It was automatically connected to all members after someone sends the distress signal. She could hear engines from the background. The others are probably on their way too. Hopefully, they could still see Arianne alive.
