Chapter 11 -First Real Battle
Hei Yu hurriedly followed after him, but by now, the battle had already begun. Rolling out of the car, Dave utilized his arm strength to push the door back close and, at the same time, roll a little further. He felt something swipe through the air above him as he rolled, distancing himself from the car and the creature. Now a few feet away, he hurried to stand and his gaze fell on the front limbs of the creature. Something that had not been noticed from within the car was its astonishingly long claws. "Must be a decent nine inches," he muttered a joke to himself. A frown soon appeared on his face, this creature was different from all others. It wasn't rushing to attack but instead observed him as he observed it. It had no fur or rotten flesh just grey skin of pure muscle, each muscle group compact and highlighted with precise definition. "Certainly high defense speed and a full range of motion" Dave muttered to himself. Being muscular often means strength but such definition m
Chapter 12 - Mutation/Awakening
"His system is Spatial Manipulation," Hei Yu eventually replied. This was not a secret, in this age of uncertainty where none could protect their lives, to cooperate, exchanging some information about one's capabilities was basic courtesy. "Spatial Manipulation, explains the teleportation" Dave's Mom sank into thought. But Hei Yu's expression was a little scrunched. Maybe because Suzanne was not an Awakened, she had no idea how the system worked. Logically, an awakened would only get one or two skills, and their ability was restricted to those skills. For example, she had the Precision system, but this only gave her two skills, [Dextrous Hands] and [Aiming]. If she were to pick up a stone, she could barely aim right! But Dave was using his ability, or his system, without any skill. First was the Spatial Blade, then the Spatial Shield, and recently, teleportation.

Chapter 13 - Limitations/Tragedy
Dave followed the trio to the hangar. On the way, he studied the changes to his system. [Name: David Sawyer] [Species: Hybrid] [Status: Awakened] [Level: 2 (Exp: 130/200 ] [Rank: 1 (Soldier) ] [Health: 100/100] [Stamina: ∞] [Strength: 38 ] [Endurance: 9,999 ] [Dexterity: 49] [Speed: 26 ] [Available Stat Points: 0] [Abilities: Spatial Manipulation, Evolution (Detecting available paths. . . 10%)] [Skills: Spatial Blades (Max), Storage space(∞)] The change was astronomical. His Stamina was infinite, and this reflected on his Endurance, though not infinite, it was infinitesimally close. He also gained an additional ten across all stars and was now classified as a Rank 1 Soldier, although he had no idea what that meant. Maybe he was now as strong as a Rank 1 zombie or m
Chapter 14 - Discovery / Freedom
Earlier within the hangar, after Dave left with Uncle Mike to see his father, Suzanne held tightly to Hei Yu with her left hand, and with her free hand, she wiped her eyes. "I don't know how you have come to know my son. But I have learned much in my life. I know about shared trauma and the bond it creates between two victims. I see you care about him, but I must warn you." She turned to look Hei Yu directly in the eyes. "I know most parents will say this about their children, but I know my son Dave. He is objective-oriented and has as much apathy as empathy. He feels as deeply as he does not. I understand the conflict, and you will too, soon enough. Never let him betray himself, and do not take advantage of him maliciously. You can make any mistake, you can hurt him, just remember to talk about it." "What's going on?" Hei Yu asked uncertainly. She did not like the look on Suzanne's face. "Dave is a nobody. In our previo
Chapter 15 - Hunted
Somewhere in the stratosphere, in a clear region with seemingly nothing, was the gentle hum of idling engines. Occasionally, a faint energy pulsed through open space, faintly highlighting the form of a large spaceship. Within this stealth ship, hovering silently was a hub of activity imperceptible to any external vision. "Report summary," a stern voice asked, sounding almost like the faint hum from a broken machine. "20 minutes ago, our terminals lost connection with two systems," a reply came from a flower-shaped figure crawling on vines back and forth through a small room. "How does that happen?" the machine-like voice came again, this time from a small device in the middle of the room. The cylindrical device sat on the glimmering glass floor almost like an empty tin can. "Their hosts must have found a way off the planet." There was no further question or acknowledgement from the tincan, so the plant-like figure continued. "Since reconnecting with our terminals, we hav
Chapter 16 - Unexplainable Encounter
"Dave, come on, just one step," Hei Yu urged as she tried to encourage Dave, who ran with gritted teeth. Filled with guilt as she watched him, Hei Yu fired freely at the incoming horde of wolves chasing behind them. For the first time, she saw exactly to what lengths Dave was willing to go to protect, and it made her feel fatigued and guilty at the same time. 7 minutes ago. They had just come out of the woods and were now well past Dave's childhood home. It would only be a few minutes to the open field where the Plane could land. But all of a sudden, before them appeared a creature unlike any they had seen until now. Sporting the usual red eyes of all mutant beasts, this creature had the physique of a man except for the jagged spikes all over its naked black skin. It seemed like it had just walked out of a fire after having been burnt to a crisp in it. Holding a large sword, it stood on their path silently watching as they approached, behind it, a pack of wolves chased. About fif
Chapter 17 - Escape
"Get in!" A truck arrived in front of Dave and the passenger door opened to reveal Celine. Dave struggled to get in forcing Hei Yu to put away her rifle for a moment to push him in and shut the door. She jumped into the backseat surprised to see someone in a squatting position already inside. The car turned and the guard from the plane opened fire on the pouncing wolves as they drove off. "We tried reaching you a few times through the sat phone, but neither of you answered," Celine said after allowing them a few moments to recollect themselves. "Sorry, we were a little busy; more than a few weird things happened between last night and this morning," Hei Yu replied as she opened the first two buttons of her shirt. Sweat glistened on her skin, and she reached to tie her now loose hair back into a bun. "Yeah, those weird things are happening everywhere," Celine replied, glancing at Hei Yu through the rear mirror. She turned to Dave only to see his head lulling down."Hey Dave you o
Chapter 18 - Back on The Plane
It was more than a struggle to get the car into the plane after it went airborne and even more to get out of the flipped car once it was inside the cargo bay, and going through all that while giving CPR was impossible. By now, Celine, Hei Yu, and the guard in the car had taken turns keeping Dave's heart beating while the plane staff fought hard to saw the door open. Unfortunately, after all that tossing, the door Dave had reinstalled, along with all other doors, had gotten stuck. "We'll get you out soon enough; it's a common fault with this truck brand," Mr Celeste urged. He turned around to see two women arrive with a gurney and gestured for them to come closer and ready to pull Dave out as soon as the door was cut. "How's his breathing?" Celine asked urgently as she pushed down in a rhythm on Dave's chest. "Still weak, but he's breathing," The guard replied, looking up at her with a finger under Dave's nose. Due to the flipped truck and little space, there wasn't much
Chapter 19 - Changes
"Woah, my compatibility is awful" Hei Yu groaned. "What's going on?" Celine asked glancing between the two of them in confusion. "Changes to the Awakened system" Dave shook his head. He decided to keep his compatibility to himself for now. After all, his system window just collapsed out of nowhere and he lost access to it completely. Such information could either make him valuable or vulnerable, depending on the perspective of anyone interested in him. He sat up slowly and struggled to get off the bed. Hei Yu quickly hurried forward to support him. "What happened with your friends?" Dave asked. Of course, he had long since noticed their absence. Celine walked beside them as Hei Yu supported Dave out of the infirmary and into a dining room. As they walked, she recounted what happened after Dave got off the plane. "Leaving your husband alone here was a risk" Dave shook his head as he was slowly let down into a chair. "No, I don't think they would have hurt him. After all withou
Chapter 20 -Sealing Doom
The plane let out a gentle hum as it broke slowly through the clouds, meanwhile within, Dave started to shiver soon after eating."What exactly is going on with you?" Celine asked as she watched Hei Yu support him towards his room."Just changed tol rapidly that's all. I'm okay, it's just my mind tricking my body into thinking I'm not. Should be over in a few days" Dave replied. He was aware of his own condition better than most.Hei Yu nodded as she lowered him on his bed. The room was too small to contain three and Celine had things to do so she left while Hei Yu half laid beside Dave, supporting her upper body on the wall as she held his head on her lap."Is this really okay?" Dave asked in a low mumble as Hei Yu slowly stroked his hair. A smile bloomed on her face as she looked down on him struggling to keep his eyes open."I actually like how this bothers you. Stop thinking too much, are you in any condition to let your mind travell?" She teased and Dave snuggled on her to lay mo
