Chapter 174: The Search For Ascension

Olivia appeared in the alley with the flash of light usually associated with teleportation.

She allowed herself a slight smile as she looked around her surroundings. Ever since she'd gotten the ability to teleport, she'd been entering alleys even more than shady people.

She dismissed the thought and stepped out of the alley. This wasn't the time for that. She had things to do.

She walked down the street before stopping in front of a door. Above the door was a buzzing neon sign that read: 'Future Past Bar.' This was her destination.

She grabbed the knob and pushed the door open. As she entered, it was as if she had been transported to the past.

The bar was dimly lit, tiny yellow fluorescent bulbs shining above instead of the customary holo-capable neon lights. The walls were adorned with faded, vintage posters and dark, weathered wood paneling.
