“Why are we here again?” The commander can’t believe he reconciled with her though he wanted to kill her two days ago.
“The law lets me examine him; but dissecting is still the best choice.” Beitt confessed without any second thoughts, because she knows everything she does towards the particular resource is now legal.
Since the third highest position which is the commanders, are given the access to all entrances and exits within the vaults, Titus was obliged to assist the lower official on her ventures to help her through the doors as well as to see what she’s been up to that could change the decision of the Highest Court.
“012897… here he is” He read the numbers above the door containing the peculiar subject “Be careful, you might wake him up.” The higher official warned and he used his ID to open the pentagon capsule where the resource was kept.
“Why are you so edgy about this?” The Lieutenant asked while preparing her gadget to synthesize the body with emphasis.
“We are not allowed to experiment a human body for some reason.” Titus replied.
“It’s one of the reason why we made war with our kind isn’t it? I’m not a sinner my friend but this being infront of you is the reason why we choose to leave, forget and rebuild our souls. He is not one of us; we might have the same creator as him but every part of him has been altered by the will of man. He is an alien, a creature of the void to be exact. You should not have any sympathy to an animal, as they call themselves – at least the beast we dine, dies to give satisfaction while people like him are destined for nothing but filth and the deepest portion in hell.” He hates it when she tries to play the righteous card even though her hands are also dirty, but since she’s doing it with the knowledge of the sacred book, the commander knows he should not be complaining.
After repetitively scanning the subject’s naked body – he doesn’t even know if the Courts are fine with her seeing everything – Beitt started tapping and make silly expressions while reading the findings on her tablet. With curiosity and impatience the officer asked her “What is it?”
“Wow… He’s a theory made real… look.” She handed the device.
Realizing how potent the alien is, Titus stepped back and said “What should we do?... Should we let them know?...” he prayed “Oh Lord have mercy; a child of darkness has come to devour you flock.”
“I knew they would achieve it one day” The Luitenant stated meekly “and nothing can be hidden forever.”
“What did you say?” The commander didn’t understand what she was thinking at that moment and he’s beginning to feel the danger of the resource’s presence within the vicinity.
“I mean, no one should know. The elders, if they find this information, there is a possibility that their perspectives will change and it will turn them into monsters of power and dominance… We should set him free and take him somewhere far from our colony!” She suggested.
“No, we should continue upgrading EVA instead; to drain him and after having all his knowledge of the universe, we could use it to stop him or kill him if it’s for the best… We can’t let such treasure go to waste!” The higher official decided and convinced his companion with a plan.
“He could kill us all if gets conscious!” Beitt panicked, nearly screaming.
Titus grabbed her shaking body by the shoulders and ordered her “I am afraid as well but we both know it’s risky to tell anyone. It’s best if we stay silent and settle this storm ourselves… I want you to be you- the smart one and add ADAM’s codes to perfect the purposes of EVA, with this caliber, we might able to hold him down and if ever he is still unstoppable… I will sacrifice myself- explode him with my ship.”
“I…” The officer stopped trembling and her composure returned “I was about to believe it until you said you’re going to be a hero for ones.” They started laughing like nothing happened and went back to work.
Persona in passage #257
I can’t open the third door; even with the screw driver. But at least I was able to clean my new favorite classroom. Everything in this classroom is the same as the one I preferred a lot – because all of the details are copied! Except the additional passage and the room sign that says ‘First Year Class - C’.
The place looks stunning in my perspective since I replaced the chairs with spotless ones and I made all the curtains dustless. Life was beginning to have meaning for I was able to do something I have fun with, and the feeling of having an accomplishment after all those blunt hours is truly incomparable. I wish this warmth within me remains as it is as I continue to exist in this silent and raging spaces.
The rooms didn’t have any box or cabinets for cleaning materials so I placed my blessings to the other room. As I was arranging my stuff, I was planning of walking around the next day – if there was – to see if there are rooms like the janitor’s closet which was filled with lively things. I had never found a teacher’s office in the third floor, it might be in this location or in the second, or the fourth; well I don’t really care what the future brings, for what matters most here is that I’m happy and I’ll still be as happy until I finally find another source of joy.
Distracted by the wide smile on my face, I didn’t notice the writings on the board. But after taking a second glanced, I was captured yet again by the beauty of mystery. I obviously didn’t draw this for I only write my thoughts on the green walls, and this is truly amazing… unknown planets, stars and nebulas that were pasted by colored chalks. The universe is very wide… limitless, I concluded… and I want to see it all… I want to explore. I was in a trance, in a paradise for the eyes before it went downhill when a black swirling image was pasted painfully at a corner. I can’t seem to take away my consciousness to its hideous presence so I came near it and erased it swiftly with my hand… but the truth can’t fade… It remained to haunt me.
I left my fearful state in the other space and returned to the one I am proud of. I was about to regain my calmness when I clicked the switch to turn on the lights; and it did not obey my finger. I’m not an engineer so I thought it was just a black out. I stayed and waited for the lights be back – I was napping while doing so. I heard a continuous braking of glass; I was judging if I’m dreaming or imagination it all. It was then proven to be wrong for I pinched myself and it hurt; and the rooms are constant with the echoes of glass being shattered.
I’m scared. I didn’t know what to do. My mind went blank and my body went stiff. It’s approaching… I can hear it getting nearer and nearer. I gulped hard and went to peek what was going on – I was shaking and weak as a mice being hunted by a human.
I saw nothing…
It was dark…
Purely black…
It stared at me before…
I ran without looking back. My lungs hurt as well as my legs but the nightmare didn’t end…
It can’t end till my death arrives at the third door.
