James was bored sitting next to a human sized cocoon and creepy Ava, his turn was taking forever, it seems he will be the last one to receive the guidance of Sukehime as Leon Just entered the wagon. James turned to see what the rest were doing. Everyone was sitting in lotus position and were in a deep meditative state holding the Jade slips provided by Sukehime. It seemed everyone had found dry land and started to go through their recent gain. Except one tho, Janet was scribbling on a paper with a quill pen sitting in lotus position and using the bundle of paper as a writing pad, Igniting curiosity in James mind. Leaving Ava's side James walked to Janet. 

Janet was so concentrated on drawing rune characters that she did not notice James who took a seat next to her. James quietly observed Janet drawing the same weird symbols repeatedly, he suddenly asked " what are these symbols? '' spocking Janet " aaAH! " 

"James, what are you doing here ? When did you sit here? wait! How long have you been sitting here?" asked looking at James who was sitting next to her. 

 "Not long I just got here, I was curious what you were drawing, so what are these symbols you keep repeatedly drawing? " James looked at Janet with curious eyes and charming smile.

" These are rune characters, I am practicing to master drawing them. it is a lot harder than it looks. " explained Janet unable to say no to the charming smile of James.

" Really!cool. `` said James then he looked at Janet's both hands and asked '' where is the Jade slip you got from Sukehime, can I see it? " 

" mu! .. sure why not. " after thinking for a second Janet agreed and passed the Jade slip to James.

James was amazed by Janet's response, were it been him he would not even consider it. James did not take the Jade slip, he looked at Janet and asked " why? " 

Janet smiled and said " you did not even open your spirituality yet how are you going to access the Information inside the Jade slip. Silly " hearing Janet's explanation James laughed and took the slip from Janet. 

James' actual reason to visit Janet was boredom, but a sudden idea flashed in his head that, if it was possible to read the jade slip without awakening the spiritual strength with his soul organ. Once this thought crossed his mind James had to try it and therefore asked Janet for her jadeslip. He would not mind if Janet refused as if not her then he could always ask Ava.

Holding the Jade slip in his palm James used his soul organ on it, soon a Transparent cable connected extended out of James palm and connected  to the Jade slip, then prompts appeared on James status screen.
[  Ding! Host used ability Moneta's fork on the prop ' Sukehime's teaching's on rune mastery and puppeteer of dead". ]

[ Moneta's Fork copying all the knowledge in the prop  ' Sukehime's teaching's on rune mastery and puppeteer of dead', this may take time please wait patiently. ] 

Seeing this prompt James was delighted and tightened his grip on the Jade slip. Janet curiously looked at James; she did not understand why James was holding the Jade slip so tight. Looking at Janet's doubtful eyes James smiled embarrassingly and said " I have never seen Jadeslip before, it's so warm.

Hearing James say that the jade flet warm Janet was shell shocked and then locked at James again, he seemed to be enjoying it as he tightened his grip on the jadeslip. Her cheeks and ear turned red as her face was filled with shame and she then looked at James furiously. Looking at Janet's mode turn so sharply James was confused 'what happened she was so friendly a movement a ago, girls are really fickle ' thought James. 

Apparently since Jade slip was very important something Janet could not afford to lose, so she had safely placed it inside her woman's safe, that is between her blouse and chest warming up the Jade. hearing James say the Jade slip was warm really touched Janet's nerve. 

[ Ding! Copy complete, file 'Sukehime's teaching 's on Rune mastery and puppeteer of dead' created. ]

As soon as the copying was done James directly gave the Jadeslip to Janet and thanked her " thank you, I never knew jade would be this warm and fragrant. " 

Janets face turned red in shame, if the jade slip prop was not a 9 star occupation prop she would have thrown at James face and shouted ' perv! ' but instead she took the Jade slip from James and said " Pervert!I have to practice Rune drawing, please leave."

Having achieved his goal James thanked Janet again and walked towards the cocoon with a huge smile on his face. 

Looking at the self satisfied face of James Janet gritted her teeth, ' I will remember this shame today ' she thought. Apparently whoever told that woman knew best to hold grudges was a wise person. James did not know what was happening in Janet's head even if he knew he would not care as it was not like he held her breast or said those things intentionally.

Because of this incident Janet had a very tough time getting her head cleared and keeping it calm again. Unlike her James who was totally oblivious to the incident started to process the copied files of  'Sukehime's teaching 's on Rune mastery and puppeteer of dead'.

[ Processing the file  'Sukehime's teaching 's on Rune mastery and puppeteer of dead', this may take a while please wait patiently. ]

[ Ding, Alert, Host's strength insufficient to completely process file 'Sukehime's teaching 's on Rune mastery and puppeteer of dead' ]

[ Ding! In order not to harm the host only the files suitable to the current strength of the host will be processed and the rest of file will be processed with the increase in Host's strength.]

[ Ding! 0.01 % of the file processed in accordance with host's strength, rest will be processed with increase in Host's strength. ]

After seeing the Prompts on the status James excited face finally turned black, what the f… do you mean by insufficient strength since when did one have required to gain strength to learn knowledge. Soon the processed knowledge entered James mind after going through knowledge James knew what the system meant by insufficient strength. 

James is a mortal who has not even awakened his spirituality, which is the most important tool to learn Rune mastery and Puppeteer of the dead.  Even if he had opened his spirituality he would still not be able to completely process the file as rune mastery is a kind of study of heavens rules and laws, each rule and laws of heaven is so powerful that the users body faces certain burden if you do not have appropriate strength to handle this burden then the user mind will be crushed into a mindless imbecile. So until or unless you have the right amount of strength it is not wise to make contact with high level knowledge. 

With the 0.01% of the file that has been processed all James had was detailed knowledge on what is spiritual strength? How does it work? How to awaken spirituality? How spirituality is required for rune mastery? Basically the knowledge that James has right now is the complete and basic knowledge of spirituality. 

Using this Knowledge James decided to awaken his spirituality. There are three ways to awaken one's spirituality, the first way one has to achieve the state of one with nature so that the spirituality slowly awakens to communicate with nature this is the genuine way. Second way is to have a senior spiritualist rip a tiny part of their spiritual strength and use it to excite and awaken the spirituality. Third way to use a spirituality awakening potion or a rune to awaken the spirituality in oneself.

James could not choose the option two and three as he did not have or know where to get a spiritual awakening potion or Rune nor did he have a senior spiritualist next to him to help him awaken his spirituality. So James could only use the first way to awaken his spirituality. Even though Sukehime will awaken his spirituality anyway James still wanted to try by himself. 

The first way to awaken one's spirituality is the natural and most beneficial way, being able to connect and communicate to nature means nothing but communicating with the world and its every life forms and energy. To be able to become one with nature one has to be completely one himself. 

The human body has three minds first the Brain, second the Heart and lastly the human body itself.

Many would ask how the human body itself can be considered as a mind as it is controlled by the brain. Than you would be wrong as the experts believe that most of the reactions of the human body are controlled by the hormones in the body giving it a semi sentient status, take the male part hardening in presence of attractive opposite sex or the body adapting to the temperature of the surroundings or the eyes adjusting to light outside al this are normal reaction of the body and its part.

Being completely one means that the brain, heart and the body should act as one, if one thinks not to sweat in a hot atmosphere then the body should not sweat, if one thinks to sweat in extreme cold the body should sweat. One should have total control and command over his brain, heart and body . this is called being completely one, once one has achieved this state then he can try and get one with the world, if the one is not completely one himself how does he expect to be one with the world and be one with all the life forms and energies of the world.

To achieve this state of being completely one many martial artist gurus and yogis have to  meditate for centuries. But this was not a huge deal for James thanks to his mutated organ Moneta's Fork.

In this forgotten part of the world, the ground was white as milk when the snowfall stopped. The ground shone like a crystal under the brilliant light of the full moon. The wind kept getting fiercer each day, trying to fight off the arrival of a new year. The water in the lakes was cold enough to chill the spine. The architecture of the place were a wreck. Most of the buildings had collapsed and the debris blocked the roads. To an outsider, it would seem that the place was dead. With toxic air, no connection with the rest of the world and buildings that looked ancient, no wonder Friction left the Nihon islands out of its reformation agenda after the Third World War. The prospect of the island sustaining life was laughed off.

"Don't trust Friction...Don't trust the INTELLIGENCE...welcome to Delta..." the voices echoed in his head as Henry woke up. It took him a moment to reorient himself. He was in a prison cell.... "no, it can't be a prison cell", Henry murmured to himself. The idea of locking people up in rooms and feeding them while the punishment was to not see anybody was considered too trivial and a waste of resources under Friction rule. All prisons were destroyed sometime in the 90s. So, were the hell was he?

"Is somebody there?" Henry tried to declare that he was awake. There was no answer. "HELLO..." shouted Henry as loudly as his rough and thirsty throat would allow. The sound of a key rustling into a lock gave Henry the confirmation that his voice was heard. A person in the Delta hoodie appeared. "Are you okay master Henry?" asked the guard as he knelt down. Henry, a master ; that was the most absurd thing he had ever heard . After being raised in an orphanage his entire life, there was no way he could be anyone's master. He suddenly remembered something from the previous night. "I think you have made some mistake. My name is Henry Parker, not Robinson and the girl with me was Janet Brown, not Smith" said Henry as politely as he could. Henry was smart. He knew when to be rough and when to be polite. At that time, he was in unknown territory. He had to make sure not to piss the wrong person. His own life was at stake. "So, you still don't remember. You will when you find the other three", chuckled the guard as he unlocked Henry's door. "The other three what?" asked a confused Henry."The keys of course, follow me" the man smirked and led the way. "Where am I exactly?" Henry tried to gather some information about the place he was at, but after that, the guard became silent. They took a series of elevators and walked down several corridors. Henry though he would try to make a mental map of the place but before they were even 1/10th of the way, he gave up."Is the place really this big or are you just fooling me by walking in circles", asked Henry innocently but again, no answer. There were many people walking along the corridors. All had the same delta hoodie and everyone carried guns. The look on their faces were serious and Henry knew that all this was not a prank. As the final elevator came to a rest, announcing the arrival at the requested floor, the guard finally broke his silence, "Miss Smith is in there too if you were wondering. I can't accompany you any further. Chief Richard is just beyond this door".  The guard pulled open the door and Henry walked into the auditorium. The auditorium was big enough to hold more than five hundred people but at the time, there were only three, him included. All sort of thoughts came into Henry's mind as he walked to the spot where Janet was. Somewhere in the back of his head, Henry knew he was dreaming. He was waiting for the point where he would wake up. "Sit down Henry" said the third person in room, whom the guard told him was some Chief Richard. Seeing that following his command was the best possible way to survive, Henry obeyed and took a seat.

"Henry and Janet, you must be wondering where you are , who I am and most importantly, why you are here" said Richard in a firm voice. "If you are wondering, yes, this has to do with the memories you received that night in the hospital". With each passing moment, the prospect of it all being a dream was getting thinner. "Could this actually be happening?", Henry wondered , still unable to process everything. A week ago, Henry was the most boring person ,perhaps, on the entire planet. His life, that was stagnant for years was completely shaken up the day Janet came into it. "Henry, are you listening", the firm voice shattered his contemplation. "Now all of what I am about to say might seem completely insane to you but I request to let me finish before you come to conclusions" Richard said with a softer voice. Henry opened the bottle of water in front of him and gulped it down as he prepared for whatever was to come next. "Janet Smith, currently recognised as Janet Brown, I am your uncle, Richard Smith. Your father , Erin Smith was my brother." Uncle Richard.... not unlike most of the things lately, the name felt familiar. "I was raised in an orphanage. If you are really my uncle, why was I raised in an orphanage? why did my father abandon me?" Janet was on the verge of tears. All this time in the orphanage, the only way she could accept her life was by believing all her family must be dead. The thought that she had living relatives and still was forced to undergo that hell was intolerable for her. Unlike Henry, whose mind just refused to register anything as real, Janet somehow found it easier to believe. The repercussions of the belief was what haunted her. "I am sorry Janet. All I can say is that it was for your safety and also probably to ensure the survival of humanity". WHAT!!! The more Henry tried to believe whatever Richard was saying, the more insane it kept getting.

"Explaining everything in one sitting will be too much to take. So, take these AR(augmented reality) lenses. Everything you would like to know will be available in there". Richard took two black boxes out of his jacket pocket and placed them on the table. "Before that however, I would like you to read this" said Richard as he gave Janet an old diary. "This is your father's diary and he wanted you to have it on your eighteenth birthday. Happy Birthday Janet". Something was different with Janet. The entire time,she didn't even look at Henry. Something fundamentally changed inside her when Richard's relation to Janet was disclosed. Her attitude seemed like the silence before a storm. "That would be all" the firm voice was back. "You still haven't answered where we are" asked Henry still glued to his seat. Janet , with her hand on the knob of the door, stopped to listen. "We are in an underground Delta facility of the Nihon islands. Just as I said, every piece of information is available in there. Welcome to Delta". Richard opened a secret door behind him and slipped out. The guard entered and accompanied them to their rooms.

           -----#####-----

Tears rolled down her cheeks as she finished the final page of her father's diary. The last words were "Happy Birthday Janet". It was written on the day of her fifteenth birthday. She was glad she read it on the same day, three years later. The diary was not a source of information. It was a compilation of his life. As she read through the diary , she felt like she was there, right beside his father as he went around the world. When she ended the diary, there was a hollowness in her chest. "This must be what people feel when a loved one dies" she thought to herself. There was no evidence that what Richard said was true in the slightest. But Janet found it easy to believe what he said and have an origin story rather than rejecting it and being the unknown girl she has always been. She decided to believe that abandoning her was for the greater good. She went to sleep convinced that birthdays might not be boring after all. 

Henry, in his room, found it hard to believe whatever he heard. Even if Janet was a "world savior", what role did Henry have in it. There were so many questions. "Only one to find out", said Henry to himself as he opened the black box. As he put on the lenses, he could feel a tingling sensation all over his body. Suddenly, a message appeared in thin air "MISSING AUDIO LINK". Henry thought he might find an instruction manual somewhere in the box but when he looked for it, what he found was a pair of earpieces. As he plugged them on, the error message disappeared and another message appeared : "Link Success !!! Welcome Henry Robinson". After 5 seconds, the message disappeared and an entire set of options appeared.

"
1. Memory Sync Information ( locked )
2. Delta Database ( requires authentication)
3. The Truth
4. Diagnostic Test
5. Health monitor
"

Henry raised his right hand to touch the third option. Suddenly, the menu changed again.

"
1. World War 3
2. Friction (locked)
3. The INTELLIGENCE (locked)
4. Delta (locked)
5. The Lock and Key (locked)
6. The Five (locked)
7. The Final Piece ( Lock not uploaded )
"
The first three options looked like the chapters in his history book. The other names were fancy but had no meaning for him. He remembered that the guard said something about the other three keys and thought this must be something about that.

Without much delay, he raised his hand to select the first option. His hand went right through the text and nothing happened. "What the hell", he remarked

"Your current brain state is below 80% efficiency. As per security protocol, you are currently not eligible to access the information." said a voice in his ear. "So, what do I do?" asked Henry, to no one in particular. "Your options are caffeine and sleep. Although I would recommend sleep as it's 11:55 PM already".

Henry took off his lenses and earpieces, kept them in the box and murmured "Happy Birthday Janet" to himself before he went to sleep.

In the year 2101, Science is the only religion and Friction, the only ruler.

Justice system as we know it, is obsolete and the AI "GRID" makes the rules.

World is progressing at a rate that is unheard of in history. But history itself is something that the people don't completely recall.

Join the journey as Janet and Henry go on the epic journey to find out answers about themselves and the history of the world. A mission that could be THE LAST HOPE of humanity or perhaps , the end of the world as we know it.

The starry sky rotated slowly. It was rotating so slowly that the movement would have been undetectable if it hadn't just been in a static state for those ten seconds.
The glowing silver spots, the winding silver lines, and the silver surfaces of all sorts gradually converged in front of Chen Mu. They were moving slowly, but their trajectories were still clearly discernible. It was as though they were under the influence of some kind of gravitational pull in the vast, complex starry sky, moving toward some point of convergence in front of Chen Mu.
Everything around Chen Mu was silvery and as fantastic as a dream. That huge starry sky had been compressed into a small region around him, where the concentration of countless silver spots was like an ocean of stars. Those strangely shaped surfaces were like icebergs floating on top of the sea of stars, all moving under some kind of unknown influence while countless winding silver lines were wandering among them like snakes.
The transformation of that sea of stars was different from its normal changes and filled Chen Mu with anticipation as he carefully controlled his perception. Part of his perception continued to maintain the principal shape of the card, while another part of his perception paid close attention to every transformation of the Child.
The movement of the sea of stars was slow, but Chen Mu keenly discovered that the speed of its motion was increasing at an astonishing rate. After five minutes, a qualitative change finally appeared in the sea of stars!
A three-dimensional, grid-shaped structure made up of countless silver dots and wavy lines and surfaces was suspended in front of Chen Mu.
That composition…
Chen Mu opened his eyes wide, unable to believe the three-dimensional structure that had just taken shape in front of his eyes. Wasn't that the main part of the composition he had just simulated with his perception? The three-dimensional composition in front of his eyes looked identical to the one in his mind, including the parts he still hadn't thought through clearly.
The three-dimensional structure looked like a strange silver cage. Its skeleton could be clearly distinguished, like an utterly perfect metallic casting. If he didn't look closely, there would basically be no way to discover that the skeleton was composed of countless dots, lines, and surfaces coming together.
The parts he hadn't thought through were enshrouded by the sea of stars. It created an illusion as though the three-dimensional composition was half-concealed and only faintly discernible in the sea of stars. But Chen Mu realized that the parts enshrouded in the sea of stars were completely empty.
The transformations didn't actually finish. The silver dots, curving lines, and surfaces in the sea of stars were like a school of fish scavenging for food. They were concentrating all around those parts of the composition that hadn't yet been completed.
Chen Mu then saw a shocking scene.
A half-concave surface appeared at an unfinished place. Like the first fish in a school of fish, it immediately caused an upheaval in the sea of stars. Countless glowing dots, curving lines, and curving surfaces went flocking toward those parts like crazy, constantly forming all kinds of compositions. But in the instant they finished, they would then disperse in an even shorter amount of time. All the other "fish" that had long been stalking around then immediately filled the void, reconstituting some new composition…
Each position that was enshrouded in the sea of stars was being incessantly set up, dispersed, and set up once again…
That endless cycling was going faster and faster until they finally reached the terrifying speed of 100 cycles per second! Each time they dispersed, there would be a burst of a ball of glowing silver. The naked eye could never keep up with that speed, and Chen Mu could only see the magnificent yet painfully eye-piercing eruptions from those regions enshrouded by the sea of stars.
But even Chen Mu's perception could just barely keep up with such speed. Each composition that was set up was completely different, as though some group of designers kept sketching out a new design. Whenever they were dissatisfied, they would erase it, draw a new one, and endlessly repeat.
The silver glow never stopped flashing, and the movements of the sea of stars reached a terrifying speed. By then, Chen Mu couldn't even keep up with its speed by using his perception. The silver flashes quickly exceeded the ability for anyone to detect that they were actually flashing.
After ten minutes and after going through who knew how many cycles of dispersal and reconstruction, there was finally a place where the sea of stars had scattered, revealing the new composition inside.
At Chen Mu's first glimpse of the newly formed composition, he couldn't take his gaze off it. It was a double recursive composition that was as small as it could be, but it was a lot more delicate than any double recursive compositions Chen Mu had ever seen! No! It would more accurately be described as perfect! In the eyes of card masters concerned with aesthetics, such a composition would probably have no sense of beauty. In Chen Mu's eyes, however, the double recursive composition that was used in that spot was quite perfect!
His brain was spinning, but he finally had to admit it; if he were the one to have thought it through, he would never have been able to perfect it like that! The best solution he could have come up with would have been 15 percent less efficient than that double recursive composition.
For that 15 percent to be spread over the entire large composition, it probably wouldn't have influenced the entire card by more than one percent—perhaps not even one percent, but only a few thousandths. But Chen Mu still couldn't underestimate the effects of that fraction of a percent.
How many energy compositions would be involved in a single four-star card with such a small composition as that one? There would be at least thousands, and some more complex cards might even go as high as tens of thousands! When upward of thousands or tens of thousands were combined together, the effect on the card's performance would reach a rather amazing place.
As new compositions were constantly taking shape, Chen Mu found that the places where compositions had been completed and not yet dispersed would cause him to gasp in surprise without exception.
As they went up in star value, the energy compositions involved in a card would become more and more complex. Above four or five stars, the energy compositions involved in a card would be astonishingly complex. Among them might be included countless numbers of basic recursive compositions. For a card artisan to be able to complete a flawless design from patterns he required would be difficult to accomplish in itself—even for awesome card masters who might have some unique understanding of the principal designs of the energy composition.
But no card master could optimize all of the compositions involved in a card that was four stars or above. Regarding local compositions, the difficulty of optimization wasn't very high, but it would entail a huge amount of computation. In the life of a single poor card master, he wouldn't necessarily be able to complete the optimization of even a single kind of card.
No card masters could do that kind of work. Most of them didn't put that much of their energy into computation, and it would require a deeper understanding of the energy composition of the main design. But Chen Mu had done it by virtue of the Child.
With the originally bare grid-shaped composition, it was like dead vines growing new branches in the spring to light up one's eyes. After 20 minutes, there was a huge and completed silver energy composition floating in front of Chen Mu.
Chen Mu had already forgotten about his wild joy, obsessed as he was with a detailed examination of every aspect of the energy composition in front of him. The final result of the Child's calculation—and the most optimized result—was an energy composition that made him completely forget himself. To tell the truth, the design thinking that had gone into that card was still rather inferior to Chen Mu's Golden Word Shackle, Bipolar Card, the Hundred Changes, or even Xiaobo's Wheel. But it had taken the given framework to its limit!
Its every detail exuded deeply fascinating calculation. He couldn't take his eyes off it and deeply imprinted that energy composition, which was so perfect it took his breath away, in his brain.
Seven floors above where Chen Mu's card making studio was, there was another card making studio. It was the dedicated card making studio of the head card master of that materials store, Bernie Topster. As the chief card master, Bernie Topster normally had a lot of leisure. Apart from occasionally having to take one or two card making orders from the boss or occasionally helping the staff in the acquisitions department to identify some obscure precious materials, the rest of his time was spent making his own cards.
"Is something wrong, Janet?" Topster put down what he had been doing, and his gaze fell onto Janet. Janet was the shop's sales manager, though she seldom came up looking for him. Janet was actually the counter girl who had waited on Chen Mu.
"If I might be so bold as to bother you, Mr. Topster…" Janet first expressed her apologies and then explained why she had come. "There is a client who rented a five-star card making studio and also bought some materials. This is the list of his materials. I'd like to take advantage of your wisdom about what sort of card this list of materials would be suited to make."
"Oh. Let me take a look." Topster took the one-star fantasy card Janet had given him and inserted it into the card player.
He quickly scanned the entire list of materials and then said with a laugh, "The world of card making is rich and vast, and a lot of materials on this list could make a lot of different kinds of cards. It would be really hard to tell. But if he were to use all of the materials, I personally believe it could be for making a four-star Bomb."
"Bomb…" It was hard for Janet to hide her discouragement. The Bomb was a common four-star card that would only be considered mainstream goods. It was a bit inconceivable to her that he would have rented the most expensive card making studio to make such a mainstream item.
Probably knowing what Janet was thinking, Topster said with a slight smile, "Perhaps he only wants to increase his success rate. After all, the better a card making studio is, the higher the success rate."
"Success rate…" Janet muttered. She suddenly turned around to ask, "If it were you, what would your likely success rate be to make the Bomb?"
"Probably 50 or 60 percent," Topster said, rather unimpressed. "For a card master at my level, a four-star card isn't so hard, so my success rate would be pretty high."
Janet looked as though she found something weird about it. "But he only bought one set."
"He only bought one portion?" Topster was stunned. Could that card master be so sure his success rate would reach 100 percent? That would be impossible! In general, card masters would buy several setups to make a card just to assure success. The preparation of materials was extremely time-consuming. Since he had wanted to rent a five-star card making studio, he could tell it was someone who was willing to spend money. It would be more reasonable for such a person to buy several portions of materials.
Just at that time, the apparatus on Janet's wrist sounded out. She took a look and saw that it was the manager of the testing department, which stunned her. The testing department was responsible for the testing and evaluation of cards, and the shop had a dedicated room that would provide clients with the ability to test their cards. What was he doing looking for her at that time?
Once she opened it, the manager of the testing department appeared on the screen. Janet, who was good at reading expressions, discovered that his expression was quite strange. He looked stunned to see Janet and said, "Hurry to testing room 21, Janet!" Taken aback upon seeing Topster beside her, he rushed to say, "Mr. Topster, if you have the time, I hope you'll also be able to come."
Janet and Topster looked at one another. What had happened?


This is both a work of science fiction and an exploration of the meaning of life, love, literature and art. Brainpower is no longer the main ingredient for being human in this far distant future world.  Spirituality, physical balance, and diligence all come together as integrity for Chen Mu, the Card Apprentice.  The cards which Chen Mu masters in his own scrappy way, distill all the powers of the cosmos –  human and nonhuman –  into something that is not a book, not technology, and neither art nor magic, but is these and more.  Learn about these strange cards, which can embody everything you might imagine for the future of technology, but also a future beyond technology which promotes the best, and sometimes the worst, from mankind’s past.

Just then the chief started the meeting and everyone stopped gossiping.

" All non-duty staff have been called today to discuss something which can be considered as important." The chief said.

Pausing for a while, the chief continued," The biggest shareholders of our hospital and also the members of our board of directors, Glory and Wilson enterprise are changing CEOs today. Their sons will be replacing them everywhere. As you all know that our hospital wants to start a charity program for the patients who are suffering from HIV which is a very common disease these days and for that we need a huge amount of funds. We have high hopes from these two companies and we are sure that they will help us. The two CEOs will be coming over for a short seminar which will be held in this month itself. A few nurses and doctors will be appointed for this project so those who are interested should give their names when they are asked to."

Janet frowned and murmured," As usual boring meetings."

" I heard that two CEOs are young and handsome." someone said from behind.

" Yes, I heard that two." Another nurse said.

" That is all for today. If you want, you can watch their interview which we will be showing at the cafeteria. Have a good day." The chief said.

As soon as the chief left, everyone ran towards the cafeteria.

" I am hungry." Ron said.

" I am hungry too but I guess I'll go home and eat with Rocky." Janet said.

Ron fronwed and said," You people have really forgotten about me after getting yourself a hot man."

" I'll go and look for Kevin at the main mansion." Silvia said.

Just then Ron grabbed their hands and started dragging them towards the cafeteria," Eat with me first and I won't hear any excuse."

….

Inside the cafeteria.

Ron and Janet were busy ordering food while Silvia was busy calling Kevin who wasn't receiving her call. Now she was more pissed than anxious.

Janet and Ron brought the food over and said," The cafeteria is really crowded today."

" They want to see the hot CEOs I guess." Ron said.

After calling Kevin for one last time, Silvia grabbed her bag and was ready to leave.

" Where are you going?" Ron asked.

" Kevin is going to get a good beating from me today." Silvia said.

Seeing her angry red face, Ron grabbed her shoulders and forced her to sit down.

Passing her a bottle of water, Ron said," Geez girl calm down and drink this."

Opening the lid, Silvia was gulping down the water when she heard the host from the program say," Let us welcome the hot and the most dashing men of the business worl Kevin Austin, Jacob Wilson and Chris Walker."

*PFFFTTT* 

Silvia spat out the entire water from here mouth on Ron when she heard the two familiar names.

Janet widened her eyes in shock and turned towards the television and when she saw the three men on the screen, she got up and gasped while Silvia started coughing vigorously.

" Will you two shut up and let us watch this eye feasting show?" Someone shouted.

Silvia grabbed Ron's hand and asked," Isn't that my husband?"

Ron quickly took out his phone and typed Kevin's name on the search list. The news about him taking over Glory enterprise was all over the net. 

Ron's expression darkened when he read about an article which had Kevin's history on it. 

Passing the phone to Silvia, Ron left the cafeteria.

Scrolling down, Silvia couldn't believe what she was seeing. The information was too much to digest in one go. 

Taking the phone from Silvia's hand, Janet gasped louder when she read the information about Kevin. She then quickly typed her boyfriend's name and almost fainted after reading the article. 

" So all you three are childhood buddies and have been to the military together?" The host asked.

Rocky nodded his head and said," Yes."

" And is it also true that Mr Walker retired a few years back while the two of you retired recently?" The host asked.

" That is true. We retired to take over our family business." Kevin said.

" As we know, Mr Walker took over Sparkle and shine a few years back but never attended any kind of public interview and function. Then why now? Especially today?" The host asked.

Chris smiled and said," I was waiting for my buddies because I knew that one day or the other they have to take over and we always do everything together so why to leave this behind right?"

The host laughed and said," That is true."

Pausing for a while, the host asked," Everyone in the business world or related to the business world knows about the rivalry between Glory and Wilson enterprise. I want to know your point of view on that."

" Well, that is something that was going on between our fathers and I don't want to say anything about that. But now that we are taking charge, no more rivalry. As everyone knows, the two companies will be collaborating in many projects in the future. The rivalry legacy ends with our fathers." Kevin said.

" Yes and there is no way I am going to go against or fight with my bro for some business or my father's sake." Rocky said.

" It's between our fathers and we will just leave it to them to solve and discuss." Kevin said.

The host nodded her head in satisfaction and said," So now let's talk about something else." Before changing the cue card.

" Three hot men sitting right now in front of me and with thousands of woman seeing you three over the screen looking all handsome and dashing, I am sure the woman out there might be going crazy about it. So how do you feel and how are you planning to avoid the uncountable numbers of girls who are just going drool all over you?" The host asked.

Raising his left hand up, Kevin said," I am happily married to a beautiful woman."

Raising his left hand up, Chris said," And I am already engaged to my long time girlfriend."

Rocky chuckled and said," Though I don't have a ring to flaunt like them but even I have a girlfriend."

The pouted her lips and said," So all the three hot men sitting in front of me are taken? Ahh how disappointing is that? You three broke millions of hearts in a second." 

….

" I cannot believe they are already taken? How depressing is that?" Someone said.

" And that hot guy wearing that light blue suit is married. Can you believe that?" Another woman said.

" So what if they are married or taken? Rich people fool around with all kinds of women behind their wife's back. They have countless numbers of mistress's outside. So it doesn't really matter whether they are taken or married." Someone from the crowd said.

" Ahh I can willingly become his mistress and do whatever he wants me to." Another woman said before letting out a chuckle.

Silvia clenched her hand into a fist before grabbing her bag and dashing out of the cafeteria.

Janet was about to leave when she finally received a call from Rocky.

Pressing the reject button, Janet grabbed her bag and left too.

"That dress design was for my sister. I have a few that I have made and I would like you to do the honors of trying it on so that I can see my dresses on a living being. I know that you will do them justice." Michelle treated the dress as if it was fragile and packed it up.

"I will wear any design that you bring to me. It would be my honor to honor your sister. She was a good person from what I can tell, Michelle... Yuki popped her head out and she had one silver-red swirled eye and one aquamarine blue.

"Oh, ho.~ I love the new colors. I think that Cedric will go nuts and they match the dress well. I like that Janet suggested it to you, Princess." Michelle zipped up the dress and hung it away. "I am going to help your prince charming get into some date clothes. I know that he bought you a bunch of clothing but I will help him get some different stylish clothes as well." 

"Thank you, Michelle!" Yuki smiled and sat down on the chair that was in the room and focused on changing her other eye.

Janet looked at Alyssa, "I will not fire you. I know that you work hard but do not try to cross me. I have a client that I am trying to help out so please excuse me." She walked right by her and went to the back storage room. She started getting bras and underwear sets that would match and in all different styles and colors. She grabbed a few black bags and placed the pairs into the bags. 

Cedric heard the last part and chuckled. He went to look at casual male clothes and started to look around. 

Alyssa saw the man come down and start looking at the clothing and decided that she would hit on the hottie. "Hey Hunny, is there something that I could help you find?" 

"No." Cedric grabbed a top and put it back.

Janet stuck her head out and carried the three bags to the stairs shaking her head. 'That girl will try to latch on anyone. That human is a fool. I should've fired her.' She passed Michelle with the bags.
Michelle looked down and cursed, "I can not believe that I forgot to send this with the clothes. Janet, whatever she doesn't wear, could you please cut the tags off and I will charge it to Cedric's account?"
 
"Of course I can do that! Also, I think you might need to deal with Alyssa. She is hitting on Cedric hardcore downstairs. I was busy trying to get this so that I can get back up to Yuki so that I could style her beautiful hair."

Michelle leaned over and kissed Janet's cheek and his voice slipped, "thank you. I will take care of it." he realized the slip and rushed down the stairs. "Cedric, my dear sweet customer, come and I will help you choose some outfits. Alyssa, hun I am sorry but Cedric will only take suggestions from me. I need you to go to the storage room and start to bring out the stock I asked you to do when you got here."

Cedric heard Michelle's heart beating faster and smirked. 'Well, well I see that someone let the cat out of the bag. I will be silent and not comment on it until he brings it up with me.' Cedric smirked before replying, "what took you so long? I thought you were just going to put some dresses away. You couldn't have been messing around could you?" 

Michelle blushed and glared at Cedric, "only if it applies to clothing. You know that you have my undying love Darling." She pulled out six different styles of sweaters and placed them in the VIP change room. "How many outfits today sweet thing?"

Cedric chuckled at her reaction, "I was thinking of getting quite a few. Twenty to thirty outfits. You should know what I like, hun." He played it up and went into the change room to look at what was being placed on the rack. 

Michelle came into the room with slacks, jeans, sweat pants, and shorts. She hung them up and whispered into Cedric's ear. "I am very sorry. I forgot to pick out underwear for Yuki but thankfully Janet did it for me. I will get her to cut the tags off and I will charge them to your account if that is acceptable?" 

"Of course that is acceptable. It is for my Little Sexy Slave so there is nothing the matter. I am glad that another female is picking out some undergarments for my sweetheart. It is not exactly what is on your mind when you think clothing besides I like Janet and Yuki seems to like her as well." Cedric saw a few swim shorts in the mix and raised an eyebrow.

"It is finally time to use that pool in your backyard and now that Yuki is awake at noon she might enjoy swimming in it." Michelle left and started to grab tee-shirts. "Oh and make sure she wears the sunglasses in the sunlight. I do not want her to suffer."

Cedric sighed and closed the door and tried on all the sweaters without opening the door and then left the last one before changing into the slacks. He opened the door when Michelle knocked three times. 

"Oh, that looks so good on you. I see that you like the sweaters I will take them to the counter but I will suggest that you wear a short-sleeved shirt today as it is going to be a scorcher outside." Michelle hung up thinner longer sleeves and some tee-shirts. She grabbed what was placed on the chair and whistled one last time. 

The black slacks didn't show off his muscles but fit him like they were made for him. The sweater was grey in color and had three big black buttons in the front. There was a collar that was neatly placed as it should be and the top two buttons were undone. Cedric touched the collar and looked at Michelle. "I will take your advice. I felt it heating up when I came over here."

The world belongs to the humans but what they do not know is that in the dark hours of the night there is a slave market that happens in the woods. No one knows about it except those that are wealthy and pay a fee for the membership. As the slave market moves from town to town, finally they reach its destination where they call up the buyer letting him know that they have arrived with some intriguing goods that he might be interested in. 

The slave that was bought from the Slave Market in the middle of the night was taken to her new home by her first Master. She feels safe with him but doesn’t remember anything from her past and doesn’t know what secrets lurk in her mind. 

The Master that bought a new toy thought since she was what he was looking for. He hoped that she would last longer than the rest but what he didn’t expect was the past to come back to him after a hundred years without it. With his new memories he softens up but only for her as she is now his everything, he will stop at nothing to protect her and help each other remember their past together.

Excerpt

"Just who do you think you are? I will get you thrown out of this area if you continue to loiter around here. I was just having a chat with my soon to be man when you interrupted me." The girl pointed at Yuki blaming her.

"Darling, were you going to pick up someone else when you already have me by your side?" Yuki turned and pressed her body up against his side. She rubbed her chest on his side to show that he was hers.

"You know that I can not replace you, Liliana. I was only telling these ladies that they couldn't have the purse that I specially ordered for you." He moved his hand to her ass and squeezed.

The ladies looked embarrassed for a moment. "No, I will get what I want. I want that man and that purse!" The lady screamed and her face turned beet red.

Yuki turned her head over, "you can not control someone's feelings. You can not compare to me in any way shape or form." Yuki turned her head away shapely.

"Oh is that so. THEN I CHALLENGE YOU TO A BEAUTY CONTEST!! There is a competition for the queen of the beach today and if you win I will leave you alone and bow down to you but if I win I want that purse and your man!"

When Janet comes back, she finally could take a deep breath. While she looked around, she could see that Matt one again is alone. While seeing it she wanted to move but while she started doing it the person who takes her here stopped her. While seeing it she nodded, and then she looked around. 

While she was doing it, she could see that more and more people looked around and then someone asked: "will we have food".

"Maybe," one of the attackers said while eating. While seeing it everyone looked at him and then he throws a little of his food and said "eat" while starting laughing. While he did this, he walked away. While seeing it Janet hummed "what a dick".

"Yes," someone said. When she turned, she could see that Rose was looking at her. While seeing her Janet said, "oh what happened to you".

"Nothing," she said while hiding her hands. When she did this she looked at Janet and she asked: "Are you scared?".

"I was when they take me but now it's all right," Janet said. When she did this, she looked at Rose's face and she said: "and how are you".

"Scared and while don't know how long we will be here I don't know what to do," Rose said while moving a little. While seeing her Janet moved closer and then she asked: "how long we know each other".

"Probably from kindergarten but I never expected you to know me," Rose said while looking at Janet's eyes. When she was doing it Janet chuckled, and she said: "you always were in my class that why I know you,".

"True you and Clara were best friends, and I didn't know that you remembered anybody else," Rose said.

"I remember most of and while you always were in my class I remember you too," Janet said while looking at her. While she was doing it Andy voice come "I have it soon we will send people inside and be ready that something might happen,".

While hearing it Janet looked at Matt and while seeing that he moved his hands behind him and while taking something he started being ready. While seeing it Janet smiled to Rose and then she said: "soon we might be free".

"How do you know this," Rose asked.

"oh, my six sense telling me this" Janet said and then she started being ready for what will happen while she has no gun with her only her option to do will be hand to hand fight. While she looked around, she could see that everyone started looking at her. 

While she saw it she smiled while trying to give more confidence to everyone and she started to be ready to fight. 

While she was doing it at another side of the corridor Matt checked if he can take gun easy from the bag and while looking at enemies he waited for what will happen. While he was doing it Kevin voice comes "we are inside".

"Ok," Matt said and while looking around he could feel that someone is close to him. While feeling someone's hand Matt said "who".

"Nao" he could hear. While hearing it he smiled and said: "throw flash on three".

"Ok," she said and then she started counting quietly "one, two and".

"Stop not everyone is on position," Andy said.

"So when" he could hear Naomi voice.

"Now," Andy said and when he did, this Matt closed his eyes and while seeing light going around for a second he waited to it go down and then he takes a gun and started shooting. While he was doing it each of the attackers who were here, he shoots each knee and one to shoulder from which side was a gun. It takes him only a few seconds but when he did this, he could feel that he have an empty magazine and then he could hear "down now". While he looked around, he hides the gun and while Janet was moving people down as leader he waited to all end and then Naomi said: "for you".

"Thanks," Matt said while taking costume and he started dressing it up. While he was doing it he put it really fast on his clothes and when he did this, he said: "they are mine".

"Calm down," Naomi said.

"Hell fucking now," Matt said while reading gun and walking to attackers which were looking at him. While they were doing it he said "now you are screwed" and he kicks each of them. When he did this, he takes guns and an extra magazine. While having them he started walking down and then general Harris's voice comes "B35 you can go all out,".

"Yes sir," Matt said while starting crooning one song which he remembers from his childhood and while being ready he walked down. It was the first time from all his four years of being in black agents that he will go all out and he goes only with his rage not thinking. While he was walking down, he could see some other agents who were looking at him and then one said: "don't kill them".

"Maybe some will be alive where are they," Matt asked while looking at them.

"Basement they are fighting with five from us," Kevin said while coming to Matt. While he looked at him, he could see one time his rage but it was pacificator by knocking him down. While he looked at Matt's face which the mask covered he said: "remember not killing".

"Yes yes, I remember," Matt said and then he jumped from stairs to go where enemies are which destroyed his peaceful time in school.

Upload idk I will try one a day

 The cover isn't mine

Since Lexi were still confused about the Deadly Car Racing even though she has the original host's memory, from Lexi's own judgement, the previous host was dead because of her lack understanding of this job.
She only knows how to play the role as the Guardian and the Racer but did not know how to use her strength and mind in each role. That is why she easily being crushes or trick by other party to her own death.
And now, Lexi already lived in this new body. She didn't want to die for the second time and already promised that she would stay alive to take care of Oscar and Janet. Lexi would never let herself ridiculed by others anymore.
As soon as Lexi found the information she want, Lexi quickly open the document inside the virtual reality.
Inside it, Lexi found numerous photos which almost making Lexi couldn't believe her own eyes when she saw it.
There is various type of photo: starting from the types of car (small to big, weak to powerful), racing venue, the weapon (whether it was used on the car or by the players) and also types of players.
Lexi did not know from where she should begin so she just opened the files which show the types of players.
The information show another types of photos of players, starting from the strongest.

Lexi look at the pictures of the players name as Phantom Rider. The names of Phantom Rider suddenly piqued her interest as Lexi took a careful look on the pictures.
Although Lexi could not see the real face of this Phantom Rider because he hide half of his face, from the nose down to his chin using a black metal mask, it did not conceal the burning, intimidating and arrogant look in his eyes.
His black colour of eyes matches with his black hair, which makes him become mysterious each time Lexi look at him.

*And so on... *
_____
Finally, when Lexi finished with the information regardless of the players, Lexi moved onto the racing venues.
One by one of the pictures she saw, Lexi become terrified but at the same time feeling excited too.
There are many types of racing venues which some of it took places in where the 21st century had: for example, the city. The different between the normal cities and the city in the racing area, is that the cities inside the racing territory was on fire and has many explosion appear from everywhere.
Other racing venue held from another types of area which is; they need to race on the hard-like ground with hot lava just beneath the ground. Another example is that they have to race inside an area with ice storm which could freeze everything in just one second.
Lexi couldn't wait for her next match when she saw all this dangerous types of racing venues. She was someone who likes and enjoys dangerous and challenging sport and right now, this Deadly Car Racing was the only thing that makes Lexi's heart beats in excitement.
'This kind of game is super-duper awesome. I cannot wait to compete in here. But, first... I need to establish my own team. The previous team I have are full of suck peoples. They didn't care anything but themselves. Tsk, selfish people.'
'But where do I find a capable member?'
Just when Lexi want to think more about the new team she want to establish, a voice from the intercom inside her room rang through her room.
Lexi jumped a little when she was caught off guard when she heard the intercom voices.
"Sister, you better come down now. It's time for dinner. I'll eat your dinner if you late."
Lexi put her hand onto her stomach. 'Yeah, right... Before planning for the next move, I better eat something to replace my energy.'
Lexi strode out from her room and went to the kitchen.
The kitchen wasn't that big. There was a square table which can load four people. Janet and Oscar were already on the dining table.
Lexi observed Janet who was settling down the dishes on the dinner table. Since Janet was not the real mother of Lexi and Oscar, Janet's skin was pale green in colour.
Janet has tall body, around 175 cm. She has a long dark blue hair that reach to her waist. Janet was wearing homey-like clothes with plain colour.
"Sit now, Lexi." Janet waved her hand toward the chair in front of her. Lexi nodded once and quickly sit on the chair.
Lexi observed the food on the table. There was three bowls of faint green colour of rice, a bowl of meat with cabbage soup, a plate of over-roast shrimp and also a plate of some kind of vegetables which look weird in Lexi's eyes.
Lexi was surprised to see there was still rice in this century. She thought this kind of food will perished after 5000 years later, which is now. It turns out that rice still exists in this century.
Janet and Oscar start to take their spoon and fork but Lexi didn't move at all. She sat rooted there on the chair while observing the two people eating the dinner.
Lexi were sure so hungry right now but she couldn't eat any of the food on the table. She couldn't imagine what the taste of the food is. 
Janet lifted up her head to look at Lexi's direction. When she saw Lexi didn't intend to eat, weird feeling surged across her face. "Why didn't you eat yet? You don't feel hungry? Did you want to eat something?"
Lexi look at Janet and a faint smile painted on her lips. "You the one who cook this food, mother?"
'From the host's memory, Janet was the one who cook food for us. Since this family was too poor, they couldn't afford a cyborg to cook the food. Did Janet's cooking was this bad?'
'At least, this food didn't smell bad like in the street before.'
"Of course it was me. We couldn't afford any robot to help us with the cooking, we don't have the money." Janet focused her attention to the food again.
Lexi released a silent sigh. 'Good thing I learned how to cook different types of dishes from the five-star chef back in the 21st century. If I can cook new dishes, Janet and Oscar can eat a good and delicious food rather than these dishes on the table...'
Lexi stood from the chair and walked to the kitchen side. "Is there any other ingredients left? I want to cook new dishes."
Janet and Oscar watched Lexi as she make her way to the kitchen. A trace of weird appeared on their face.
Lexi... Cook?
Lexi opened the box-thingy which looks like a refrigerator. She take out the good ingredients she found and start to make food. Janet and Oscar are both staring at Lexi without bothering to stop her.
After cutting and washing the ingredients, Lexi start to cook it. The smell from the food fills in the kitchen and then soon, Janet and Oscar intrigued by the smell. They look at Lexi with a disbelief painted on their face.
Never in their life, would they ever be able to smell this delicious food scent.
Because nobody cares about the food taste nowadays, people in this century only learn the basic cooking. Moreover, many of the family households using robots to cook food to save the times. Nobody care how the food taste or how it looks.
After they smell the delicious scent, Janet and Oscar didn't continue to eat the dishes on the table anymore and they wait for Lexi to finish her cooking.
"Mom, would you please clear the table? I almost have done here."
Upon hearing what Lexi want, Janet quickly moves away all the dishes except for the rice. Soon enough, Lexi done with the cooking and she put all the dishes onto the table.
Now, Lexi feels satisfied enough. She turned her head to Janet and Oscar who was looking at her with their mouth open widely.
"Let's start eating, shall we? It will be bad if the food gets cold."
Lexi grabbed her spoon and start to eat. After she tastes the food, she nodded in a satisfying manner. She waved her right hand lightly, indicating that Janet and Oscar to start eat too.
The stepmother-son pair still freezing at their place while looking at Lexi be​wil​dered​ly.
Janet coughed for two times and she start to use her spoon to taste the fried chicken with carrot. When the food enters her mouth, an indescribable feeling surged from her heart.
Janet looked at Lexi with disbelief written all over her face. "..."
Oscar, who was watching Janet's reaction from the start, also starts to pick up his spoon. Just like Janet, as soon as he tastes the dishes, an indescribable feeling plastered on his face.
Lexi smiled in relief when she saw this pair of stepmother and son. "It's taste delicious right? I have a friend who can cook like this and she teach me how to cook. There, let's eat more."
Lexi put the chicken chopped onto Janet and Oscar. Both of these people didn't wait anymore as they quickly eat the dishes.
"Lexi, your cooking is so amazing. This dish is truly amazing!"
"Sister, I like this food. Can you cook more like this? I never eat this kind of food before!"
Lexi smiled widely as she watched this pair of stepmother and son eating happily.

Lexi, a multi-talented person died because of an incident when the boat is suddenly being ambushed by rebellion people.

Her soul transmigrate to 5000 years later when all the technology become more advance than the 21st century.

What makes this new life interesting is that there is a deadly and dangerous job called as the Deadly Car Racing in this century. Even though it is dangerous, it pays a life-worth fee.

Lexi become one of the car racer and she was very excited to this new adventure. Because this Deadly Car Racing is 1000x not normal.

By hiding her identity, she become the renown and feared racer.

She is after all the Dark Rosette.

Janet's sobs were heard over the echoing waste that was made of a large swath of the city.

Jack looked over to the lady, he had been conversing with and felt she reminded him of Leslie... Maybe less forceful, and more playful, but it reminded him, nevertheless.

Now hearing her sobs, he put down his fists and braced them on the ground on either side of the ruined lair that was Mark's, as he lowered his head to Janet, with his flaming eyes watching.

It wasn't but a moment later that the rubble next to her broke apart with Mark crawling out of the ground, without dusting himself off, he released the large mole-like ice claws he had used to dig, and he came to Janet's side and kneeled.

"What's wrong?! Are you hurt? Did he hurt you?! DID HE?!" Mark's vacant eye socket's flashed, as he lifted his head to see into the looming face of the God-King.

With tears, Janet reached out and with a light pop, she slapped Mark aside the face.

Mark brought his hand to cover the place that stung, as joy crept into his heart.

"No, he did not! What are you doing!? This isn't like you??? You don't fly off the handle like this! You scheme, you plot, you play tricks! Why are you fighting head-on with the God-King here?!??"

"B-B-But-But I have-"

"Do you want to die? Do you want me to finally love you when you're gone? Do you want to kill the God-King and have the world find you? Do you think you can escape that shadow thing in Deagoth you keep rattling on about???"

"I-I"

Janet reached up, grabbed Mark's collar, and pulled herself up as she hung onto Mark's dusty vestments, "Tell me! WHY?! WHY DO YOU HURT ME?!"

Panicked that he was getting Janet dusty, Mark was about to release her, but hearing her words, he reversed his actions and deeply embraced her.

"Never! NEVER! NEVER WOULD I HURT YOU! Damn the world, Damn even me... But never you! What have I done wrong?"

"Tell me why you suddenly attacked the God-King... I know he interrupted the ritual thingy you had going... but you're usually calmer than this!"

"..."

"You tell me everything... Tell me." Janet commanded as she appealed with her large eyes and blueish complexion.

Mark looked up at the God-King and weighed many things in his mind. After adding and subtracting the pros and cons, what choices he would be making, and how to please his wife... He decided who he was going to betray.

Jack mentally furrowed his brows, as he tried to listen to each word. Mark was a thorn in his coccyx for a long while now... But he still had hoped to draw this mind to him... Jack felt he had power, but not the brains or mind to use it wield it.

Mark dropped his head back to look down into Janet's face, as he scooped her up and laid down holding her in his arms leaned up against a broken column.

"I've been working with the Church of the Three Gods for a long while now... Recently they have all the rage about some goat-like girl sent by one of their "gods"-" Mark looked up at the God-King, "And she's currently in the Jails of Saigunrai..." He looked back down at Janet.

"Along with that, they provided me with much support for this last ritual... Things I couldn't get again, they had... So, information was easily given to them for such. The Dead-Tide... That's the Church's device, among other things, as well..."

"What's your point, Mark?" Janet had long stopped crying and was listening.

"Provoking the God-whatever he's called was a diversion. I knew at some point; he would show up in front of me. I didn't expect it to be in the middle of my ritual, mind you... The church has been on stand-by once she was imprisoned, waiting for him to be distracted... They only fear gods, it seems. So, I lashed out, and as you can see, it should be just enough time for the goat-girl to be in the hands of the Church of the Three Gods. Thus, I completed my part of this deal."

Jack lifted his head to look long in the distance but couldn't see anything of detail in his city of Saigunrai from the other side of the continental island.

[Yoggi... I know you hear me... This is your daughter we're talking about... You going to let some assholes just take her away???]

[...] Silence was met for a moment before Jack actually heard the voice of Yoggi, [I am not supposed to directly speak to the mortals of worlds... I will pay for this I'm sure... Father forgive me, for my child... I'll keep it short. Something has blocked my vision, as I have not foreseen this. When I gazed at your home jails... This Mark speaks the truth... I've been waiting for you to reach out to me... As even if I break the rules, I cannot just reach out to you without you acknowledging me. If you want to know more about the three church whatever, check my tome. They have her, and they don't want to know my or her mother's name... They know about Us, obviously. I need you to save her, because they will flay her essence, and I cannot enter your world normally... Jack... If you do not save my daughter, I will break the rules set down by my father, the Daemon Sultan, and I will destroy all of the Nine Realms doing it...]

[WHOA, WHOA, WHOA, WHOA, WHOA! HARD BREAK!!! YOU DIDN'T SEEM UPSET ABOUT HASTUR TAKING HER!?!?!]

[My brother is a sick fuck, but he treats all my daughters well... This is different Jackie...]

[Alright, bone, throw me a fucking bone here, how long do I have, where are they, and how do I stop them!]

[...I will have the tome show you, as it's mine, I can tamper with it. Flip its pages, so to speak.]

[These people worship you?!]

[Sort of... But tell them my true name, tell them that I sent for you, kill them in my name, and... You cannot use your God-Form to do this, Jackie... You have been using it wantonly and it's been amusing, but there are rules. Go in person... Get my daughter... Take care of her... I can't say for sure with my clouded vision, but you have... Three days....] Yoggi's voice drifted away, and no laugh was present.


Mark and Janet continued to talk unaware of the conversation of the God-King above them with 'He who lurks at the threshold.' The master of death.

"Mark, he said he believes he can heal me."

"How much can We believe?"

"Does he need a reason to lie?"

"Obviously... He would never want me back in Deagoth after my betrayal." Mark said firmly.

"We are all dead..." Jack muttered, but it boomed in the city, from his large form.

Mark and Janet looked up to process what the God-King had spoken, and as Mark was to ask.

"Mark, I want you back in Deagoth, serve me, serve yourself, serve your wife, just serve. I don't care. I will absolve you and use everything in my power to heal your wife, but I need your help. Because if I don't, we are all going to die... And when I say we all... I mean this entire world will be destroyed!" Jack spoke quickly and lowered his voice, but it still rumbled the ground.

"..." Mark stared up, not sure what to process.

"Say yes... And... I will call you husband... again..." Janet leaned against Mark's chest as she spoke looking up with her doll eyes.

"Yes." Mark looked up with no thoughts, as warmth entered into Janet's heart.

"Mark, I see that you are good with ice spells, can you make an ice ball that will protect you and Janet... I'm going to throw you to my Palace."

"That's ridiculous!"

"DO IT, WE DON'T HAVE TIME!"

Mark pulled Janet even closer, as Ice formed around him in thick ropes that expanded quickly, forming a solid ball the same size as the Skull of the Sun God.

Jack leaned back up, as he picked up the large Ice chunk, aimed at the silhouette of his Palace. After taking careful aim, he relaxed his taunt mind, as he pitched the ice chuck, sending it screaming through the air.

As Jack's God-form descended back into the Skull.

Are we ever wholly dead? Completely dead? 

Jack has lived a lonely sad life, and we follow him into death! Follow Jack's journey into death, where he finds that death isn't the end, but just the beginning.

After death, Jack awakes in a new world, very alien from our own, in every way one can imagine. As some things change, others do not; is it human nature that is vile or do all intelligent beings become a slave to their ambitions.

Jack finds himself the ruler of an undead kingdom. Furthermore, he is The Holy Witch King, an undead with Holy powers? What's a bonehead to do?

Area 51

"Approach, Janet 700 passing through six thousand." The pilot stated over the radio.

"Janet 700, squawk 0332 on transponder. Continue descent and check in as you pass outer beacon at eleven mile out." The approach controller replied.

The white and red liveried 737 glided through the cold air. Beneath, the harsh desert terrain doted with jutting jagged and rocky hills unfolded. Following the familiar flight path flown many times, the Janet Air 737 moved closer and closer to its destination through some of the most highly restricted airspace on Earth. That destination was an airfield so secret that for many years the United States government refused to even admit its existence.

"Approach, Janet 700 passing outer beacon now." The pilot announced.

"Janet 700, check wheels down. Wind is one hundred at six. You are clear to land runway one four." The controller replied.

Janet Air is an airline like no other. Instead of flying families to Disney World, Janet caters to a far more discerning passenger base. Operated by a shell company belonging to the Department of the Air Force from an obscure and nondescript terminal at Las Vegas' McCarran Airport, Janet is the sole transporter of personnel to and from Area 51.

With wheels down, the 737 continued to shed both altitude and airspeed. Flaps fully extended, the airliner settled into ground effect as the wheels waited just feet above the tarmac sailing beneath. Puffs of smoke appeared around the landing gear as the main gear and nose gear touched down. Thrust reversers engaged, the pilot lightly applied the brakes and further slowed the aircraft. Slowing to taxi speed, the 737 steered off the runway and onto the main taxiway that would take them to the appointed location where the passengers would disembark.

"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to Dreamland." The pilot announced over the intercom.

Instead of traveling salesmen and business executives, the newly arrived passengers were a different lot. Aerospace engineers, avionics specialists, and computer engineers all in the employ of several of the largest aerospace contractors globally. Carrying on briefcases and backpacks, the group quickly disembarked down the rollup stairway and was quickly whisked into the large hanger two hundred yards in front of them. Once inside, the group passed through the first of many security checkpoints as they descended deep below ground.

Employed by Boeing's Phantom Works and Lockheed's Skunk Works, the group of new arrivals all possessed some of the highest security clearances known to exist. Despite this, their armed Air Force chaperones would remain nearby for the duration of their stay at Dreamland. Exiting the final security checkpoint, the group made their way into a cavernous subterranean hanger. Looking around, they took quick note of other teams from their design bureaus already in attendance. Interspersed with each group were several advisors from the Defense Advanced Projects Research Agency. Whatever this was, it was big.

Laying their eyes at the craft arraigned throughout the hanger, they soon realized just how big this truly was. Along the far left wall of the hanger sat two unfamiliar looking craft. One a Tel'tak and the other an Al'kesh. A banner on the Tel'tak announced that this was Santa's 'other reindeer'. That the two craft were stripped of weaponry and cloaking field generators went without saying. These were not the true stars of the show though. That honor belonged to the strange looking craft sitting in the center of the work floor. This craft was very much unlike the other two craft, with its needle like shape and downward curing canards it looked every bit the spaceship envisioned by many science fiction fans. To trace its origins, one had to look years back into the SGC's past.

The late Adrian Conrad purchased a Goa'uld symbiote in an attempt to save his life from the disease that devastated his body. That symbiote was cloned many times over. Eventually, these cloned symbiotes were allowed to infect nearly the entire population of Steveston, Oregon. Opting to reunite with their brethren elsewhere in the Milky Way, construction of a spacecraft began in an abandoned shipyard. For three months, they toiled secretly at its construction, but they were not alone. Monitoring their activities was the NID, who planned to capture the vessel once complete. Built entirely of Earth materials, this nearly complete but never to be completed vessel failed to resemble any known Goa'uld design ever before encountered. Since its capture, the vessel had rested in the subterranean hanger in which it now sat.

Since the vessels arrival at Dreamland, its systems had been catalogued and dissected. Every secret and nuance it possessed was well known. The same could be said for the Tel'tak and Al'kesh in close attendance. Metallurgy, shields, sensors, life support, hyper drive, and sublight engines systems were neatly explained in many gigabytes of briefing materials. All of this knowledge and information was turned over to the aerospace contractors. One thing that would not be turned over was the Goa'uld designed hyper drive engines themselves. Instead, the briefing material, along with pages upon pages of information pertaining to hyper drive theory along with an example of the Asgard designed hyper drive found on the Prometheus would be provided.

In light of the new reality since disclosure, the aerospace industry on Earth found itself playing catch up. Transition from jet power and rocket boosted orbital flight to intergalactic hyper drive technology had happened without the industry's assistance. In comparison to systems thought to be cutting edge just one year ago, the engineers realized just how far behind the power curve they truly were. Were it not for the President's insistence that the economy be kept stable, this information might not have ever found its way into the hands of these men.

Innovation is known to breed excellence and new discovery. While Arkos provided incredibly advanced exampled of technology, it did so without the need to innovate to a degree. To truly master these new technologies, engineers needed to be set loose with a base of knowledge while expanding their understanding through trial and error. Indigenous development of these systems had the potential to greatly spur new advances someday. For this reason, the aerospace industry was being handed a stake in the great game without the assistance of Arkos. As understanding increased, more advanced concepts and examples of Ancient and Asgard knowledge and technology would be made available. Earth's expanding horizons continued to broaden, one day at a time.

hi all,

thank you for reading my book.

SG1, Atlantis, and SGU all work towards a brighter future. Past conflicts heat up more than imagined, and a long wondered question is answered. Ancients, Tauri, Asgard, Furling, Nox, and a few others thrown in. This ties up the loose ends the writers left us with.
