Ward 005 was quiet, the soft beeping of the heart monitor filled the air, beeping continuously. Kane sat on a chair near Isadora's bed, watching her slumber on the bed, his right elbow pressed on his knee while his chin rested on his fist. Concern etched over his face.

Isadora's eyes twitched before it flickered open. Kane stood instantly, his face brightening with a sweet smile.

Isadora winced in pain, her eyes heavy and tired.

“Kane..” She called, her voice quieter and exhausted. “W—Where I'm I?" Her voice trembled slightly.

Kane gently sat on the bed edges and held her hand, his smile warm.

“That doesn't matter, Isadora. What matter is that you're safe now.” He said quietly, tightening her hand affectionately.

Isadora stared at him, the scene at the Warehouse, streaming into her mind. Tears slipped from the corner of her eye to her cheek.

Kane's smile faltered. He adjusted closer to her with worries and confusion mixing into a mask on his face.

    **************** Benjamin paddled of the water, sea predators paving way for him as though he emitted a far deadly aura. Immediately his bare feet kissed the coast, the crisp breeze felt odd. He paused, looking around with a narrowed eyes in confusion. Behind him, the ocean crashed over and over in high waves, buffering ships. The distance shout of; "Aye caption" from about 1000km could be heard by him, despite the sea storm even. Water retained in his cloth, soggy, dripping from his body. He looked at his body, blood blot spread from the shred part, telling stories he couldn't comprehend. "Where am I?" He rasped, shifting his eyes to the heavens where stars littered, and then to the unsettling sea. His eyes furrowed knowingly. "Earth..." He muttered. "I reincarnated to earth after 10 thousand years of my non-existence...." He paused, exhaling sharply. Gently, he turned to the turbulence ocean, and then lifted his hand mid-air as he focused on the churning water. "I, Arafel, t

    "Where am I?" Benjamin rasped, talking normally under water without choking on his breath as any normal human would have.He swam out of the water, sea predators parting way for him as though they sensed a more dangerous Aura around him.Immediately his feet touched the shore, the night air was strange on his body. His cloth clung to his skin, soggy, dripping retained water.Benjamin looked at his body strangely. Blood blotted, telling stories of an attack he wasn't aware about. "Where I'm I," He toned, still assessing his body. "Did I just reincarnate into a human body?! Earth...." His voice caught under his breath.He shifted his look to the disturbing ocean, and he lifted his one arm mid-air. "Water," He mumbled, his eyes locked on the crashing turbulence which buffeted ships. "It worships me in Elyndra..." His voice grew firm and commanding as he focused on the crashing ocean waves. "...as the supreme Lord of Elyndra, I command you to stop!" Nothing happened. The ocean rolled

The wall was painted white, the temperature cool and cozy, making the ambience relaxing.The room was both a mix of exclusivity and professionalism.At the corner of the room stood a bed with a man laying on it, unconscious, his body clad in white sheet. A tube snaked to his arm, passing in blood. His legs had been wrapped with a bandage. Clean and concise.Amos Voss.Amos' finger twitched at the side, then his eyes gently fluttered open. He squeezed them shut as the rays from the roof was blinding.He opened his eyes again, and his gaze met with white roof, the smell of antiseptic hit his nose. His activeness kicked it.

He muttered, his thoughts spiralling.He pushed himself up from the bed, looking around the strange room to make sense of h

    ************ Benjamin swallowed hard. Director Jack's words were clear. This was a threat. Betray him the job or die! He believed there won't be betrayal. He'd never get affectionate with any woman, and it won't happen at the expense of his life. He only uses women and jumped to the next. Even though he had no dime, his handsome look was his charm on them. Deal of no love— that was it. He didn't understand why. But the price was tempting. "30,000 per week." Director Jack had said. Benjamin knew that there was no going back. He needed the money. He just needed it. He'd spent nine years in prison after he set up while shifting hard drugs. This was freedom. Another good chance to have his dormant account breathing again. "You're living another life now. Not that ex- convict. Not as the poor Benjamin. You're now someone much more," He Said. "You're the rich charming dude. Everything will be taken care of for this mission; Apartment, essembles, everything needed to make your job wo
