Gerry stood tall atop a rocky outcrop, staring sharply at the middle-aged man in silver armor who now knelt before him with his hands bound in iron chains.
“General Orson, do you have an explanation for why our military crest was found on the palace commander&

Embers Beneath The Eternal Snow
“Get down, Kael! Aim for the drone’s wing joints!”Gerry’s shout cut through the thunder of his own rifle as he threw himself onto the steel floor of the Archive Zero corridor. Red particle rounds streaked just above their heads, melting the layer of ice on the walls until it hissed and released hot steam.Kael didn’t waste a second trying to process his confusion. Although he knew the Gerry standing before him was a biological copy created by the underground facility, their combat instincts still moved in perfect synchronization, honed through hundreds of battlefields. Kael threw himself behind a concrete pillar, aimed his rifle, and fired three consecutive shots at the mechanical joints of a drone that was buzzing loudly.CRACK! CRACK! CRACK!Kael’s tactical rounds struck the second drone’s rotor shaft dead-on. The killing machine lost its balance, spun wildly, and slammed into t
The Shadow on the Wooden Bridge
“Welcome back to the real world, my first copy.”The mechanical voice hissed sharply amid the blizzard roaring across the wooden bridge. Gerry did not take a single step backward. The beam of the flashlight in his left hand remained fixed on the hooded figure before him, whose half-metal face glowed red.“Who are you?” Gerry asked coldly, narrowing his eyes as he examined every detail of the mechanical components protruding from the figure’s neck. “You’re not part of Archive Zero.”The figure chuckled softly, the grinding of its metal teeth screeching through the frigid night. “You forget so quickly, Gerry? I am the original blueprint, created before your first iteration was developed in the Vesper-0 laboratory. I am the Sovereign prototype that was discarded into the cold system.”Gerry clenched his right fist, feeling for the tactical knife tucked into his jacke
The Cup On The Doorstep
“Who’s there?! Jaden? Kael? Are you back?”Elena’s voice trembled violently in the dimly lit living room. She dragged herself forward with the aid of her cane, approaching the front door of the wooden house, her heart pounding so hard it felt as though it might burst through her ribs.Outside the door, the knocking came again. Soft and rhythmic, yet carrying a pattern that was unmistakably familiar.Knock... knock... knock.“Answer me! Stop playing games!” Elena cried, tears instantly streaming down her wrinkled cheeks. Her trembling hand reached out and gripped the rusty iron doorknob, then slowly turned it.The door swung wide open. A gust of cold night air immediately struck Elena’s face.Beneath the dim light of the porch lamp, a figure stood upright, staring directly at her. The man wore the exact same worn jacket Gerry had been wearing the last time she
Echoes From The Dark Living Room
"Kael! Get over here, quick! The communication screen just turned on by itself!”Elena’s panicked shout from inside the house sent Kael, who had just retrieved an extra magazine from the desk drawer, sprinting toward her. He burst through the living room door with his rifle raised and ready to fire. Jaden followed close behind, breathing hard.On top of the old console table, which had been dead for months, a small monitor screen glowed with a bright green light. Rows of data codes scrolled rapidly downward, accompanied by a cold, mechanical hum.System Notice: Subject Gerry Sterling detected. Initializing calibration sequence for Iteration 146...Kael stood frozen in front of the screen, his sharp eyes widening in disbelief. “How could the system detect Gerry? He’s dead! I buried him myself beside the house!”Jaden stepped closer to the console screen and reached for the emergency
The Cup af Coffee That Was Still Warm
“Don’t move, or this bullet will go straight through your skull!”The sharp shout cut through the cold night air inside the weapons shed. Kael froze in the doorway, his index finger, which had been poised to load his rifle, suddenly going rigid. Before him, emerging from behind a stack of dusty ammunition crates, stood a hooded figure dressed in black, aiming a short-barreled pistol directly at Kael’s chest.“Who are you?!” Kael demanded, his voice rising an octave as the muscles in his neck tensed with vigilance.The hooded figure slowly stepped into the light of a hanging lamp swaying gently overhead. His black hood fell back, revealing the face of a young man with a burn scar on his left temple and eyes filled with profound exhaustion.“Easy, Kael. I’m not your enemy,” the young man replied hoarsely, slowly lowering his pistol before tossing it
The Wheat Field Beneath a Real Sky
“Kael, don’t move! Behind you!”Elena’s piercing scream shattered the afternoon silence in the southern valley. Kael flinched, dropped the hoe in his hand, and spun around in a flash. Within seconds, he had the tactical rifle he always kept hanging on the wooden house’s wall ready in his hands.He scanned the dense, golden wheat field. There were no Omega special forces. No Imperial silver armor. The only thing there was a brown wild rabbit that leaped out from between the wheat stalks, then sprinted away and disappeared into the thick bushes on the hillside.Kael let out a long breath, lowered his rifle, and wiped the sweat from his forehead with his sleeve. He looked at Elena as she hobbled toward him with the help of her cane, panting heavily.“Just a rabbit, Elena,” Kael said hoarsely, trying to offer a faint smile to ease the tension. “You’re too tense.”<
