The Last Embrace Chapter 129

The following day.
After finishing her lunch in the canteen, Jessy teleported herself into Captain Mercado's house in her invisible form. She was worried at first that she might now be able to catch the Captain when he will go out of the house to meet Major Miller.
Thank God, she comes in a time when he was about to get inside his car in the garage area of his house. He was in full military uniform.
Jessy floated in the air in her invisible form trailing Captain Mercado's car speeding into the street.
The travel lasted for almost one hour.
The vehicle entered a tall gate with a gorgeous lawn leading to a grand looking house with a sleek modern design.
The Captain gets out of the car and entered the entrance of the house, he was greeted by a housemaid and guided into the study room of Major Miller. The Major was currently in three days' leave because he was suffering severe flu, he was a decorated 65 years old military man.
Captain Mercado entered the study room and performed hand salute in front of Major Miller. "Captain Mercado reporting for duty Sir!"
"Drop the formalities, Captain Mercado, we are inside my study room, have a seat," the old man said pointing at the chair.
Captain Mercado sat down on the chair facing Major Miller while Jessy was watching and eavesdropping on the two military personnel while they were talking.
"What happened to the operation, Captain?" Major Miller asked.
Captain Mercado coughed. "The Crossbreed stole the bomb launchers and all our weapons and hides it somewhere far away, Sir!"
Major Miller's brows furrowed. "Really? How powerful is this crossbreed? Is this the same crossbreed that teleported the 90 soldiers into the park a few months ago?"

Captain Mercado nodded his head. "Yes, Sir!"
Major Miller rose to his feet...he was looking outside the window of his study room. "What else can this crossbreed do?"
"She can do so many extraordinary things, Sir," replied the Captain.
"....such as?"
"She can levitate in the air, go invisible mode, teleport herself and other people or object to other places, and starts a fire... that's just some of her extraordinary power that I have witnessed so far, Sir."
Major Miller looked at his subordinate. "She almost has all the qualities of the famous superheroes we see in movies, impressive! And she is a woman. If we can capture her and make her breed more young powerful crossbreed to do our bidding, then we have a battalion of powerful weapon at our disposal, isn't that an awesome idea?"
Captain Mercado shook his head vigorously. "I don't think that's a good idea, Sir."
"Why?"
"Because we can't capture the crossbreed, Sir, she is more powerful than any of us combined and she is smart and more importantly she is human, not a vampire," Captain Mercado explained.
"So, what if she is a human being? There is nothing that can stop us to own her, she must become the government's property, we can have many uses of her if we can capture her. If we can reproduce hundreds of crossbreed like her then everything will be worth it," Major Miller said.
Captain Mercado went silent for a moment. Capturing the crossbred is hard, his superior must be out of his mind. "Sir, how about the operation to attack the vampire's hideout, when we will resume the operation?"
"I will have a talk with Colonel Brown first, we will request warplanes that will drop bombs in the vampires hideout then after the bombing you and your men will do the clean up process, arrest everyone that survives and we will make them a bargaining chip so the crossbreed will surrender and that is the time we can capture her alive."

The Captain's face was grim. "But Sir, I have to remind you that there are about 5K human workers in the surface of that facility, they were working as plant growers, they were innocent."
"Yeah, I know about them. But the vampires will use them as a shield, what's the difference? Anyway, when it comes to war there are always casualties on both sides, we can consider those human workers as the collateral damage," Major Miller said.
Captain Mercado pressed her mouth hard. He is not liking his superior's way of thinking. The enemies here are the vampires, the human workers need to be saved. But even if he will oppose to the Major's decision, he knew that he won't listen.
"Just get your men ready, Captain. I will be reporting on duty tomorrow then I will talk with Colonel Brown regarding the deployment of the warplanes. I still need to convince him to give the command to attack the Facility so that we can finally annihilate the remaining vampires on earth," Major Miller said. "That's all Captain, you are dismissed!" he added.
Captain Mercado rose to his feet reluctantly. He performed the hand salute in front of Major Miller and went out of the study room quietly.
Jessy was seething in anger the whole time she was listening to the men's discussion earlier.
Grrrr!
Major Miller is a cruel monster if he has no sympathy for the 5k human workers, then the more he has no sympathy for the surviving vampires. The nerve of this man in planning to capture her for his sick agenda?
The hell will freeze over before they can capture her!
Fury was flashing in her eyes.
She closed her eyes, in her vision she saw the bomb dropping from the warplanes and flattened the whole Facility... blood, dismembered body, and debris were splattered everywhere, chaos ensued, she can very well see wounded humans and vampires scattered everywhere fleeing from the devastating ruins. The horrifying visions terrified her.
She took a deep breath and released a deep sigh.
Major Miller glanced in the area where Jessy was standing. He must have heard someone sighing...strange but he can't see anything. He ignored what he just heard and just dismissed it as a product of his imagination.
He walked towards the door and exited the study room heading to his bedroom to take his afternoon nap.
He entered the bedroom.
After taking his medicine he put back the glass of water in the bedside table, he lies down on the bed and shuts his eyes preparing to sleep.
Then he heard a woman's voice whispering something in his ears when he opened his eyes, he saw a beautiful young woman with black hair peering at his face.
"Hello Major Miller," the woman said.
Then Major Miller closed his eyes again as if he was in a dream.

These capsules could be use for rehab and even reconstruction! Eventually, Buzzard, the largest gaming company in the world, created a new VRMMO with 99% realism pending the new capsules, of course the rate dropped to 97% with normal capsules and 90% with the old fashioned visor systems. Unfortunately, the new capsules cost $100,000 and not many people can afford them, either way the new game World of Destiny was a hit with over 110 million subscriptions!Meet our tragic MC Feng Jun, an injured psychopath that simply wants to get his next kill. He has no MO, he doesn't even care if what he kills is an insect let alone a person. He just has to kill every once in awhile to scratch his itch. Up til an injury that left him without a leg, he was able to make do simply killing insects as no one cared and he didn't even have to visit any doctors about it. People just thought he hated bugs! But after his injury he has been suck at his home not being able to do anything! Fortunately he is rich and spends most of his time playing MMOs since normal VRMMOs don't work well with his injury as the realism setting always keeps him with only one leg! But what will he do with a new opportunity to rebuild his leg with nanotech? Knowing he has to spend a year in the game minimum for something like this, he sets a goal to insure he doesn't go crazy (er) without having stuff to kill.This is a VRMMO story where the game is closer to zhan long than royal road with a few twists here and there. The world outside of the game is sci fi and has very little impact at least for the first year due to obvious reasons. No gore or explicit sex in this story, if cursing requires a mature tag I will add it later, this story is at best PG-13. Tragedy is for his circumstances and previous life, the game itself isn't tragic at all as it's just a game more or less.(This story will be put out alongside my main story whenever I feel like it for now, no set schedule at this time)
