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.”<
The Cliff's Edge and the Turning Point of Time
"Kael! Hurry! The orbital shield is starting to open in the northern sector!”Elena’s voice cut through the snowstorm over the handheld communicator Kael was holding. He was climbing the icy rock face of Iron Peak, his breathing ragged and the muscles in his arms screaming in pain. Every breath felt like swallowing sharp shards of ice, burning his throat and lungs.“I’m climbing! I’ll reach the tower summit in ten minutes!” Kael shouted back over the howling wind. He planted his boot as firmly as he could in a crack in the ice, then swung his left hand up to grip the edge of the rocky cliff.Far below, Gerry lay dying on the expanse of white snow, which was beginning to turn reddish. The loss of blood had caused his body temperature to plummet. Elena sat beside Gerry, pressing a torn piece of her clothing against the gaping wound in their friend’s chest, even though
The Last Breath In The Snow
"Don’t move! Stay where you are!”Kael’s shout shattered the silence on the icy slopes of Iron Peak. His left hand gripped his tactical rifle tightly, its barrel aimed directly at Vane’s half-destroyed metal head.From beneath a pile of cold, white snow, Vane crawled out with the last of his strength. The chromium frame on the left side of his body spat tiny sparks, and severed wires dangled from his torn neck. His biological eye stared blankly, blinking erratically amid clumps of dried blood and concrete dust.“Kael... lower your rifle...” Elena whispered from the ground, panting as she clutched her injured leg. “He doesn’t have enough power left to attack.”“He’s half machine, Elena! A creature like that could blow us all up at any moment!” Kael shot back, his index finger resting firmly on the rifle’s trigger, ready t
Dawn Without Shadows
“Gerry! Open your eyes! Don't leave me here!”Kael's cry shattered the silence of Project Omega's now pitch-black server chamber. His trembling hands clutched Gerry's shoulders tightly, pulling at his friend's limp body as he lay on the cold steel floor. Fresh blood continued to seep from the corner of Gerry's mouth and his crushed ribs, leaving a dark red stain on the floor beside Vane's motionless corpse.Elena crawled toward them, stumbling with what little strength she had left, her breathing ragged as she fought through the pain in her legs. She touched Gerry's wrist, searching for his pulse with fingers that trembled violently.“How is he, Elena?!” Kael demanded in a panic, tears dripping onto Gerry's cheek. “Tell me he's still breathing!”Elena pressed her fingers more firmly against Gerry's pulse, then let out a long, trembling breath. “His pulse i
