Part 11: The After
Part 11: The AfterEleanor Vance is imprisoned, she had never been to prison, she didn't even dream that in all her lifetime she'd serve a sentence, and watch NexusCore get dismantled. Her dream had vanished into thin air, like it had never existed before. She had argued, struggled with the cops, bit the ones she could, but they held on stronger to her arms pressing her against the cop car as the cold metal clicked against her wrist. One officer calmly placed his hand on her head and gently shoved her into the car.She could sit in her cage and remember when NexusCore was only a thought in her head, and then when it began taking shape, slowly, with every determination she built this thing up from scratch, and watched it go back to scratch again. The Architect's primary cell was brought to nothing, and their operations have now totally been disrupted by Silas Volkov, but the ancient sect—The Architect, the thought, remained a threat. What exactly are they? What have they become? What
Part 12: The Nomad's Return
After years of traveling back and forth Moscow and London, Silas finally settled with spending the rest of his life in Moscow, it was where he was most familiar with, so he returned home, he's grown up here, the people, the food, the women, oh the women, the peace, and the solitude he's found since he left London and The Architect, and even Lena. Lena. He knew that one way or the other she was going to be okay with the boy, he would have been worried those earlier years when his leaving was still new, not now, Costa should be about fifteen years old, he could look after her, and himself. But what does his boy look like, he never got to see, he never got to know, he just knew that somehow, one way or the other, they were both going to be good.Now I don't think it's okay to wake to haunting memories like a past as bad as Silas', everyday, since he left London, he's been thinking a lot about Lena and Costa before he went to bed. Today, he had rubbed his eyes, and sat up in bed, he could
Chapter 13: The Ghost of Lena's Past
Now he couldn't bear not seeing Lena, it felt like all those years had become empty and heavy, and were piling up on his head. He couldn't bear it anymore, added with the thoughts of her, and of him. He packed a few clothes and fitted them into his backpack. He was going to leave everything behind and find her, and find his little boy. The day was growing old and dim, and the wind gently caressed the curtains, letting the warm air into his room. The room was not bright, grey walls, and smelled of burnt wire. The smell came from the roof, it hosted Manny burnt wires that had even previously gone bad and erupted in flames.Pam walked into the room with a question hanging on her lips, “And where are you going?” she asked, standing right close to the door.“It's not going to be a long trip, Pam, you'll see me in like three days.” he answered, rummaging through the drawers for needful stuff to carry along with him.“No, don't leave?” She cried.He turned to look at her, if only she knew.“
Chapter 14: Costa's World
Lena never let him out of her sight for too long, she wanted the best for him, reason why she always got to monitor his every move, his every deeds, just so he does the right thing and ends up well, not like his father. What was she supposed to say when she saw him earlier? No, she knew she wouldn't run into him for a hug, he didn't deserve it, he didn't even also deserved a smile. What she did was okay, she didn't know the man, and what do you do with people you don't know? You ignore them.Her and Costa had finished seeing a movie together, and Costa had gone to his room, leaving Lena alone in the sitting room, she had to clean up, and do the dishes. She took the plates to the kitchen and washed the oil off them, she placed them nicely back into the rack and called for Costa, but he didn't reply. He normally wouldn't leave her after a movie, sometimes he stayed back on the couch, and most times, he helped her with the dishes.“Love?”He didn't reply still, he usually responded to h
