“Yes master, I understand,” Selene responded. But before she began explaining, she cautioned.

“Before I start i have to remind you, master, that we don’t have much time. Due to how important you are you are always under surveillance at all times and normally, as soon as you woke up there should’ve been a full line up of staff coming to check up on you. But I played a trick so nobody has noticed you’re awake right now.”

“But we can’t do this for much longer. Somebody might decide to check up on you randomly and if they see you are awake they’ll know something is wrong and helping you escape will become a lot harder.”

Hearing this, Cale finally breathed in realization. Naturally, he had noticed something was off mostly because it was only Selene around and nobody else had arrived since he woke up. Knowing that it was because of Selene’s arrangement, Cale felt more relieved and also curious about how she managed it.

  • A Most Fearsome Power

    When Cale discovered his powers, he realized that it wasn’t just one ability he possessed, that is the ability to open a rift in the void leading to the other world. There was also another power, a second ability that was simply special and very fearsome at the same time. This was the power to command other people’s loyalty. Similar to mind control, Cale’s power could seize the psyche of anyone and forcefully command them to do his bidding. But it was more intricate than that. Mind control forces people to act against their will with most not being conscious of their actions and simply acting like puppets at the behest of their controllers. There was a limitation to this though being that people with powerful wills and psyches were naturally resistant to mind control and could break it given enough stimulation. Another limitation is that most times people under mind control could not perform extremely delicate and precise tasks like engineering, only being able to carry out simple

  • A Secret Second Power

    “What are you doing?” Looking at Selene who was clinging to him, Cale forced himself to call down and asked through tightly gritted teeth. He tried to pull himself away big from Selene’s grasp but she held firmly to his body, refusing to let Cale go. Sadly Cale was still weak from the recent inhumane tests done on him and he couldn’t muster any strength to truly push Selene away from him which is why an unawakened woman like her could cling so tightly to him. Seeing as he couldn’t free himself, Cale said icily to Selene, “Let go, now!” Just as Cale thought Selene would refuse, she actually nodded then released Cale’s arm that she was holding up to support his body then calmly and gently moved away, taking a position on a stool not far away. When she was finally seated, Selene looked back at Cale, her expression cool almost like frigid glass. Selene’s behaviors unnerved Cale making him especially uncomfortable. He shifted nervously on his bed thinking to himself, “Now what?” Sel

  • Facing The Impossible

    Hours later… Cale jolted awake to a splitting headache, like his cranium was stuffed full of gunpowder ready to be lit ablaze with a single spark. There was an incessant ringing in his ears and the whole world swooned like it was going topsy-turvy. A wave of vertigo hit Cale causing him to retch over the side of his bed but then a slender arm wrapped around him to support him from falling over as Cale spilled his guts. Blergh! Cale emptied his stomach of its content which was nothing but bitter bile and saliva. He continuously retched for several minutes, his sickness being nothing more than the manifestation of the abuse his body had been put through over the past few days. While vomiting, Cale received occasional flashes of memory from his body about all he had been forced to endure during his coma. According to proposed theories, memories were a function of the body that is formed through the accumulation of experiences, and the spirit or psychic consciousness was created ou

  • Selene Snaps

    Cale was almost driven insane. The pain was too much… he couldn’t stand it and just wanted it all to end. Back then, when the accident happened that trapped Cale’s psyche and consciousness inside the other world, the loneliness he felt was much better than this. For who knows how long, Cale had been trapped inside the other world, locked away from his own body and unable to return. Time seemed irrelevant there for the passing of time in there was like a static sound playing continuously in a loop, neither beginning nor end distinguishable from each other. The only thing that kept Cale sane despite the loneliness was the feeling of connection he felt to his body gradually renewing as time passed. Cale still couldn’t sense what was going on outside but as long as the connection to his body was restored then he would be able to return. Sadly, Cale never expected that as soon as his connection with his body was strong enough for him to return, he would be faced with unimaginable t

  • Waking Up To A World Of Pain

    Three days later… So many things have happened during these three days. First, after discovering Cale’s disappearance, Karla and Bolin went to make a report at the nearest security station. The military, security bureau, and judicial police were the three largest official armed forces in the fortress and each of them were responsible for overseeing different aspects of the fortresses security operations. The military being the largest among the three was in charge of protecting the fortress against attacks and invasions from hostile enemies originating from beyond the border as well as the exploration and expansion of the fortress territories beyond the border. On the other hand, the security bureau maintained order within the fortress by managing conflicts and dispute between the fortress’s residents. They were divided into two arms, one in charge of overseeing awakened individuals and the other responsible for handling matters related to ordinary individuals. As for the last ar
