Chapter 2- New powers
last update2024-06-27 14:32:28

As Carlos' head vibrated and twitched profusely, he started seeing some blurred images that appeared fainted and fuzzy. They flashed rapidly on his head like a strobe light and hard to discern clearly. 

He couldn't control his thoughts and imagination. The images that flashed in his head started becoming clear. 

It appeared like a small, rounded object like a ring which had an opening by the side and also a curved structure at the top. 

"The circa!"

Carlos yelled out and opened his eyes only to see the small rounded object that he imagined on the floor. He stood up as the twitching head stopped.

"What is this? How did it appear here?"

He was baffled and found everything mysterious. He remembered battling with the zombie earlier and collapsed after noticing the scratch on his hand.

He gazed at his hand and saw the glow which covered the bruise. The glow wasn't lengthy as it only covered the bruised part of his hand.

He touched the glow and it diminished instantly as well as the bruise which also disappeared.

He stood up in shock

"What the heck!"

He picked up the ring mysteriously and gazed at it.

"This is what I saw in my imagination! What is it doing here?"

He muttered to himself while still holding the ring.

"Mom, Chloe!"

He remembered his mom and sister who were not in safe hands. His mom was alone in her apartment while Chloe was in school. 

He feared that Chloe might be in danger the most as she was staying in a hostel which she shared with her friends but her location us far from his.

Chloe was 60km away from Carlos's location, which covers up to an hour by car.

Saving his mom was the first choice as she was just 120m away from him. Not up to half an hour, he will be there.

He picked up his phone and dialed his mom's number but she wasn't responding, and neither was Chloe.

"Mom, pick up the call!"

Carlos said as he hopped on his motorbike and rode off.

Auguste Roussel, the unbeatable scientist and the most influential scientist in Neon City. He sat in his lab and sipped his coffee while watching the breaking news.

"Neon City is suffering counterattacks from these zombies and many believed that this incident will surely bring down Neon City...."

The broadcaster said and Auguste busted into laughter.

He is a tall, elegant but Sexagenarian aged man. He was matured with a beards around his chin which joined with his mustache.

"Neon city, Neon city!"

He smiled as his mustache widened his small mouth.

"I have been the unbeatable scientist in this city for ages and no one has even recognized me. I will have to recognize myself, since none of the government officials wants to acknowledge my sincerity to their nation, I will do that myself"

Carlos was still racing to save his mother. The sound of the motorbike was similar to that of a power bike.

Carlos was a good racer, he learned his racing skills from his late master. He met Rhea during a racing competition.

The sound of Carlos's bike attracted more zombies. Without wasting more of his time, Carlos hit any zombie that came his way.

One held his bike and ran after him. Noticing him, Carlos used his elbow to kick her off to an invincible air. More zombies raced after him without even a halt.

He increased the speed of the bike and every force he applied on the bike showcased his huge muscles, adding to his modest and seductive looks.

"Auguste Roussel is someone that shouldn't be messed up with! I am the real master behind all these! This whole apocalypse, I created it all!"

He moved around his lab which had a blue background. It had several sections for many chemicals and other experimenting tools.

He looked at his machine that formed the zombies.

It had a blinking status "100,000"

"The souls are increasing by hours, I won't rest until Neon City is destroyed. There can only be one superhero in this city, and that is me! Auguste Roussel!!!"

His utterance was followed by a quick laughter.

He saw the one that showcased the total number of infected people in the world.He touched the system and said"How evil people can be! I can't believe that Auguste has this evil intention. He should thank his stars that he isn't home, otherwise, he might be in the land of the dead with his accomplices!"He gazed up and visualized everything in the lab.

His face wasn't friendly, looking so strict."Auguste and his team have done enough, it is time to teach them a very big lesson!"Fred nodded and asked him to sit down. His system was previously connected to the Amazon system making it easier for Fred to carry out his mission successfully. He brought a systematical ball which was small in size and magnetic. He placed it on Rico's head to connect his thoughts to reality.The ball connected to his Amazon system successfully. He pressed a red button and Rico's head started vibrating.

The circa is even more developed, bur how do we get in?"Rico inquired because the orb blocked their entrance which covered the internal part of the circa.
