Evolution 12My reflective mood was ruined when a video screen pops up in the helmet, It was Nova calling.“Shane.”“What?” I ask, surprised he's calling me. His face in the link was free of gore, and it was close up view, a result of the helmet.“What's your plan to get past the Advantists?” He seemed to have calmed down some since the carrier, but I could still hear the tension in his voice... something was off.“Pull some quick words, then hop aboard any transport to the mainland.”“That's a little vague you know.”“True, but there's plenty of room for improvisation in that plan. P
EVOlution 10I wake up when the SUV comes to a sudden stop, my head flinging forward and hitting the passenger-side seat.“Oof” I push myself back, that's what I get for not wearing a seatbelt. I look around, we were in the middle of a parking lot near a mall. 101 and Torrent had switched places at one point and 101 was back in his human form, cursing some guy who had pulled suddenly in front of him which had quickly backed out and sped away. 101 pulls into the now empty space and shuts off the SUV.“Where are we?”I ask to Torrent, who looks up and over to me“Not where we need to be. We need to get another vehicle, one les
EVOlution 8Flying to put it simply is awesome.I had trailed 101 from the apartment to halfway across the city... the sun had just started it's decline in the sky. There was something about flying that was strangely calming and yet thrilling... so much that I didn't notice where we were headed until it was just barely in sight.“The apartments? That isn't the place I was thinking you'd head for one-oh-one.”He air brakes and ends up grazing up beside me “Not just any apartments, yours... or rather that of the one you were cloned from.” He says nonchalantly.“I know, but still, why here? The gov obviously knows where this
EVOlution 7I couldn't move, I couldn't breathe...“Don't make a sound, or we're both dead.” The voice whispers from behind me. The voices get steadily closer until they suddenly start fading, probably taking a turn on the hallway to another part of the floor. The grip around my throat kept tight until they were completely out of earshot, then he lets go, so I do the natural thing and whirl on him after a quick breath, but stop when I notice it's...“Dominick?” I say, surprise managing to make it's way into my voice.“What? Expecting it to be your little friend?” He says, voice lowered some as if he's afraid of bein
EVOlution 6A gun pointed at my head... figures, but how did he get here? He was obviously waiting for a response, so I gave him one.“Well sorry to say, I'm afraid neither of those is going to happen.” I say it cleanly and coldly, hopefully he got the message, I keep my head slightly turned to see him and the gun, then I hear the screech of a car breaking rapidly.“And i'm sorry to say, i think it will.” I look over and see several men in black suits hop out, carrying military firearms... stereotype much? Three people surround me, completely cutting me off unless I decide to grow wings and fly off.. so much for my taking him on
EVOlution 5 pt 2I keep replaying the scene in my mind, with his words and his actions. The people were milling around, ignorant to the tense scene several seconds ago, something about him was off, and it was more than just the fact that he's a shifter like me, or that he's my age... maybe actually younger.The chill hadn't left my spine since he had said the last sentence and made that creepy departure tactic of blending into the crowd.I still had time left.... maybe just under three hours, until I could get a look at all those files that I took off their servers. I lean away from the table and keep watch at the crowds in my vision, his words had made me
EVOlution part 5 pt oneI stumble out of a nightmare into complete darkness, falling onto the floor... I almost thought I was still in the nightmare until the the cold floor put me back into reality... the lights were still off and we were underground... no sunlight.-Aurora lights on-The lights glare blinds me for a full minute, maybe I should have just kept it a minimum. I watch the room come into focus, nothing new... until I turn and look at the bed."Oh..."There were massive gouge marks in the steel wall, the bed was spared most of it, but one of the pillows was completely shredded... if I turned... I check and yep, tail hole ripped through the pants... g
EVOlution 4- the long roadWHUMP WHUMP WHUMP WHUMP WHUMPI could hear the helicopter-like sound long before it came into view, going maybe three hundred feet in the air I stop from my position on the side of the road and keep looking, it followed the highway, once it got close enough I could make out the four rotors on the trapezoid shape. two in the back and one on each side. I see the red and blue cadaucius on the underside and knew it was the medical transport they sent out, took them only five minutes to get here. I shift the duffel bag to a more comfortable position and keep walking. I had seen nothing but grass, and some small hills along with cars going by at a
EVOlution 2- escaping the warzoneI was a clone...The thought kept going through my head, soon followed by seeng the original die, and it still sent chills down my spine. We had been flying back for the entire trip, I had looked out the window, we were going to a different base than before, we had passed over the advancing front lines, yet the base I expected to go back to was across the sea, but I could improvise... The team that I was fooling so well were curious to why I was here and one asked what happened..."You don't want to know, it would give you nightmares for the rest of your life... but to put it simply, the general sold us out." I read reactions of suprise fro
Sta.sh
