Nathan ran through the highway, his heart pounding to his sternum. Cars swung up and down the highway, and he was seen as someone who had just woken from the dead. He tried his best to make sure he ran far from the hospital."But how? How was I able to struggle with her? Where did that strength come from?" Nathan asked himself, completely puzzled.Suddenly, a translucent overlay hologram appeared in his vision again, with a display like it previously did, but this time it was more statistical with more stat.SYSTEM NOTIFICATION: HOST FIRST MISSION SUCCESSFULLY PASSED.STATUS: stable...STRENGTH: 50%ENERGY: 75ABILITY: NoneHOST HAD ACQUIRED HEALING METAPHORIC STATUSSTATUS ADDING......HEALING....

The guns were pointed at Nathan while restraining the team leader of the assassin. "You know what will happen if you eventually shoot, right?" Nathan spat with a sneer. "So you better use your head on this, or you get your sweet boss here killed.""You bastard, let me go," the boss spoke under his breath, barely able to talk, while Trying to free himself from Nathan's tight grip. "You have one choice, you bastard. You either set me free right here and now to make your death easy, or if I eventually get free from your grip, I promise to make your death painful and slowly beyond your greatest imagination," the boss added, with a threat. "What the hell are we to do now?" one of the men asked with a panicking voice. "Should we shoot?" he added."You must be stupid! Do you want to get me killed?" the boss snapped angrily with annoyance as he yelled at his colleague.SYSTEM NOTIFICATION: Defeat the men in less than two minutes or face the consequences of a heart seizure.

"Say your last prayers before I pull the trigger," the driver spoke with a deep husky voice, ending with a sneer while pointing the gun at Nathan's head."Why do you guys always come after me?" Nathan asked curiously, gasping."You don't deserve to be alive, and you already know the reasons," the driver replied while still driving. Meanwhile, the gun was still pointed at Nathan's head.Nathan waited for an opportunity when the driver would slightly turn his head so he could make a move. But instead, the driver chose to pull over and park the car to finish his job. Was the driver trying to reconsider Nathan's life?Nathan used this opportunity and slammed the gun out of the man's hands, sending it flying out of the window. While the car was still moving, Nathan opened the door and jumped out, rolling in the middle of the road before coming to a stop. He stood up from the ground and walked off the road when suddenly a car hit him, throwing him to the other side. Nathan was badly injured

Nathan was surprised but somehow aware of how the man could know his name. Probably, the Brooks family must have shared his name and picture to their rented assassin."Are you one of them?" Nathan asked while sipping the water he had poured into a glass cup. "Just say it. If you are one of them, there is no need to waste your time nor hide it. Get over with it, bring out your gun, and make an attempt."The man seated was confused and couldn't grasp what Nathan was saying. He gulped, then gasped. "You might be surprised at how I know your name, Nathan. But I want to let you know that I have been looking for you for a very long time now.""Why are you looking for me?" Nathan asked curiously, with a frown. "Are you planning to kill me as well?” Which is part of your motive so it won't get me surprised" he added."Kill you? No, no," the man chuckled. "I’m your uncle," he added after a moment of gasping."What... You must be lying," Nathan snapped in disbelief. "I don't have an uncle, so d

Sophia sat on the sofa, with trembling hands, waiting for her dad, Mr. Brook, to come out of the bedroom. Her dad had requested her to visit him at his private mansion, wanting to have a conversation with her concerning the last mission she failed to accomplish. Sophia's mother had to plead with him before he finally agreed to release the vaccine for Sophia, before she was able to recover from the Poison liquid Nathan injected her with. "What could be his reaction when he sees me?" Sophia mumbled to herself in fear. Her father had been a tough man since her childhood and often crude to her. Sometimes she felt he didn't like her as his child, but because she had no choice, she had to stick to him, his rules, and his orders.The tiles crackled with the sound of a walking staff hitting the ground, coming from the stairs. Sophia, driven by curiosity, turned to look, her eyes meeting the furious gaze of her dad as he descended the stairs."I gave you a simple task to accomplish, twice, bu
