Xander held on to his phone with both hands then sat on the chair, slouching forward and hands between his thighs like he was in deep thought as the rest of the broadcast went on, concentrating on it with all his mind. He was internalizing every single word that was being said and as he sat like that the others who had all been busy cleaning and were almost done with their parts all started to throw glances towards the man.
"Hey, what's wrong with Xander?""We've been cleaning all this time and are almost done but he hasn't gotten far with his own part and now he's seating like that. You think he's sick or something?" "Lemme go ask him" said one of the other Hunters, a female who walked up to the man and placed her hand on his shoulder in an attempt at getting his attention which she did."What?" Xander took out one of the airpods and looked up at the lady who looked genuinely concerned "You okay Xander? You'reBecause he had been streaming the trail broadcast as well as the news report given to everyone by the Upriser commander like a podcast he hadn't really seen much from the stream but during that time he had sat down in order to get a better listen which was when the others thought that he had gotten sick, Xander had seen a short few seconds of the broadcast and saw the uniforms that the three Uprisers on the screen had had on and it was uncanny from what these assailants had on now. "Drop it! Drop your weapons now!" Shouted the Uprisers as they stormed inside the building and with the force and pressure they were coming in with, a few of the Hunters in the conference Hall already, especially the lady who used to be a secretary before but now a hunter couldn't help but have her hand trembling with fear as this was a situation she has never been in before. However, because the others still had their weapons pointed and were willing to die to fight for themselves
"Xander? What are you doing?" the lady asked, confused at what the man in front of her was doing pointing his gun at all of them while at the same time she had wanted to move which made her gun to shake but. "Don't you think about moving! Don't worry, I won't hurt any of you and I'll make sure that they don't as well because contrary to all of this we are still friends and fellow Hunters but you'll have to be kept from interrupting what we're about to do to this nation while at the same time regret that you all weren't a part of the movement meant to save it, making this a great nation once again" Then the Uprisers walked up to all of them, all with their own guns in hand while the one who Xander had spoken to earlier patted the man on the shoulder as sign of satisfaction but as for the others. "This is the part you all drop your weapons and surrender" he said and they did just that although being reluctant about it "And don't worry, none of
"We're done Sir" said the Uprisers who had been sent out and into the apartment to do the shooting, to the Upriser Lieutenant. "Good" he said then turned to Paul and the others who were all trapped "Unfortunately a few of you hunters who aren't here or weren't at the conference Hall had already gone home to different blocks but don't worry, we've already sent a handful of squads to where they are and they should have been overrun by now and all we have to do is wait for he signal" He said and then a call came through, instructing him and the others there with him about someone wearing a trainee uniform and how everyone should stay clear of said individuals. Knowing exactly who and what type of people this new instruction was referring to this Upriser lieutenant accepted. "So they're already in the field" "Who is?" Xander asked the Upriser Lieutenant. "The powered humans you've heard so little about. We've manage
"Well, I don't really have an idea of what this—" Paul was cut short when the girl instantly appeared in front of him, crunching down so that they could speak face to face and the surprise of having her appear so close and fast from his back spooked the man, making him to have shaky breaths and blinking uncontrollably. "Hmm, go on" She said then took a bite of the chocolate bar she had left with when she left Adam and the others. It had been hidden in her left hand all this time and even while she was clenching and releasing her hand into fists earlier the chocolate bar was still in hand but well secured that it didn't fall off in the process. Because of the Impact Gloves she couldn't just have a bite of the chocolate and would have to break off a piece then throw that piece into her mouth and from how she was acting, Angel was the only one who seemed to be having a good time here. And this could be attributed to her getting exactly what she wanted whic
*GASP* With a sharp inhale through the Michael got up from his Mind Search dream like state, pushing his upper body forward with both hands stretched out but one hand extended further than the other like he was trying to hold on to someone or stop something bad from happening during his dream. From that point on and for a couple of seconds he would pant uncontrollably. "Where am I?" He asked himself then started flicking his eyes everywhere to get a read of his current situation. His Mind Search dream which he subconsciously did this time to realistically search through all his memories usually makes him to experience real time, everything he's searching for so until he had just woken up a second ago to him he was still in battle with Awon and Peter, experiencing the regret he felt during it. He had had his headwear on all this time and because he was unconscious it had automatically taken itself to sleep mode so during his attempt at looking around a
"SIR! SIR!" From the distance a different squad sent by the GHA Forces Unit Commander which consisted and was lead by his right hand man and a few other officers ran out of their Facility with their top running speed while the man in front and leading the charge remained waving and screaming at Michael when they saw him a couple meters away, standing with someone else they couldn't quite get a good reading on because Michael's body covered a huge portion of theirs. The only thing that the Commander's right hand man was able to see and found familiar was the Silver coloured set of hair on this man because it really stood out when contrasted against the complete Jet black nanotech suit Michael had on. The moment they got half way through the distance of the entrance to where Michael and Daniel were standing and having what appeared to by their own conversation to these approaching Force Unit members, to the surprise of those lesser ranked and didn't really know
Aside from being the most effective, this is a common trait that all the Arc Agents have except for Victor who tries to push out of that space of mind but the Arc Agents barely speak to anyone outside their ranks and only do so when giving out orders or asking for information from the other GHA staff but aside from that, they hardly ever have casual conversations with the rest of the staff and that's for different reasons personal to each of them. As for Daniel, his Malice which usually leaks out along with his leaking aura just like how everyone else normally does leak out too affects the Officers and Agents when they're around them and that makes them feel extremely intimidated and uncomfortable especially when looking at him which the silver haired man likes but that acts as a barrier that prevents him from having normal conversations with anyone who doesn't have a high enough power level to withstand that cold feeling his aura give to regular people. The Emerged and
Like a speeding rocket he flew in the same direction increasingly going as fast as he possibly could, reaching the point where he had to break the sound barrier which caused a shockwave to push out, making all the bird that were flying by at the point he broke the barrier to stiffen up from the shock and fall to the ground and because of the direction he was flying at and there being no obstacles along the way which he would need to maneuver through, he was moving in a completely straight line from where he had landed to where he wanted to go. It would take a couple of minutes since he had first landed when from a distance The Rift would become visible to him and just by seeing it the expression on his face became an elated one showing that he was close to his destination so without wasting anytime he flew straight for the body of the Rift itself, completely ignoring the LIGHTENING GATE a good distance to the left of where his projected body was to make contact with The
