The Last Embrace Chapter 327

A few days later.
Jessy and her mother were inside the canteen eating lunch together.
"What's up, Mom? How's work?" Jessy asked.
Sarah smiled. "Work, as usual, nothing new," she responded.
"Aren't you getting tired and bored working all the time in your office?" she asked.
Sarah shook her head. "Not really. When I'm not in my office, I do my rounds around the Facility. Besides the best thing about my job are the plants and the flowers, they are entertaining and refreshing to look at," she answered.
"Okay. Since, when did you last seen the outside of the Facility?" she asked again.
Sarah's forehead creased. "Hmm, I don't remember the exact date, daughter. It's been a long time already..."
"How about if we have girls out together? Just you and me? We will go window shopping in the mall or go to many beautiful places in the city? Let's do all the things that you had missed doing when you were still not confined in this place," Jessy suggested.
Sarah looked at her daughter. "You're offer is tempting, my daughter. I miss going outside! But I'm not sure if your father will allow me to go out," she said doubting.
Jessy grinned. "I will ask father later, Mom. I'm sure he will allow you to go out with me. He doesn't have to worry about anything because I will keep you safe," she said feeling excited to bond with her mother outside the Facility. "It will be fun for sure!" she added.
Sarah smiled broadly feeling excited as well. "Good luck, daughter! Let see... if you can persuade your father to allow me to go out with you outside," she challenged her daughter.
Jessy grinned from ear to ear, she desperately wants to bring her mother outside the Facility for even one day, so that her mother can see the outside world again. "It's a date between you and me, Mom! We will go to church, visit the mall, visit the market and any public places you want to see again. If you want... we can visit a pub house or a disco bar," she added mischievously.

Sarah shook her head. "I don't like bars and disco places. But I'm okay with fast foods and restaurants, malls and other places..."
"Don't worry, Mom, we will visit all the places that you missed and love to visit again!" she said.
Sarah's face was gleaming with excitement. "I'm looking forward to it, daughter!"
Fifteen minutes later, the mother and daughter duo finished their meals and exited the canteen. Sarah went back to her office while Jessy sauntered towards the clinic.
~~~o0o~~~
Six hours later.
Nighttime.
After finishing the blood transfusion, Jessy left the clinic and went to the human's living quarters.
She inserted the key to the padlock and pushed open the door after knocking three times signaling that she's going to enter the room.
"Hello guys!" she conveyed her greetings to everyone in the room.
"Hello, Ma'am Jessy!" the men greeted her with excitement.
"I'm back, 'coz it's Teddy's turn to go home today. Please say your goodbyes to each other now," she said.
"Ma'am, can I ask you a question? How is Leo?" one of the men asked.
Jessy was silent for a moment. "He's doing fine in his house," she lied. She can't tell them the truth because she doesn't want them to feel sad, they were not related to Leo, there is no need to inform them about Leo's tragic end.
The men gathered around Teddy and they formed a group hug.
"Take care bro!" Samuel said.
"See you again one of these days, dude!" said Ben.
"Bye guys!" Teddy said, grinning from ear to ear, his eyes were sparkling with excitement.
"Bye, everyone!" Jessy waved her hand at the two remaining occupants of the room.
"Bye Ma'am Jess! Bye Ted!" Samuel and Ben said in unison.
Jessy and Teddy departed from the room after putting back the padlocked in place.
"Ma'am Jess, wouldn't you mind if I will ask you a question?" he said.
Jessy glanced at him. "Okay, shoot! What is it?" she replied just to humor him.

Teddy looked around him, "Why this place is so quiet? Why there is no one around walking in the hallway?" he asked curiously. "Where are the v-vampires?" he added.
Jessy grinned. "They were holed up in their cell during day time and wake up during night time to feed on blood. The vampires are free to roam this place during night and day time because the sun isn't shining here. The majority of vampires doesn't want to venture outside their cell. They like to keep to themselves especially that they know that human beings are living among them, so they avoid the temptation to pounce on humans because the King and Queen of vampires will get very angry if the humans are hurt by anyone," Jessy joked.
"OMG! That is why you padlocked us inside our rooms?" he asked.
Jessy nodded her head. "Yeah. To the vampires'... human blood is a delicacy, that is why to protect you guys we have to keep you padlocked all the time, the vampires here voluntarily keep to themselves to avoid feeding on you guys," she explained further, smirking.
Teddy felt the hair on his spine stood up. "Oh God! this place is scary! Get me out of here!" he demanded. He looked behind him and saw endless hallways and corridors. He imagined with dread that vampires were lurking in their cell waiting for human blood. It would be super scary if he will found himself lost in the corridors and accidentally opened a random room filled with bloodsuckers vampires flashing their pointed fangs at him and lurched at him simultaneously! He winced involuntarily affected by his overactive imagination.
"God, I'm gonna die!" he said aloud.
Jessy raised a brow. "What is it, Teddy?"
"Nothing, I'm just imagining horrific things in my mind about vampires," he said.
Jessy chortled in amusement. "Shh...calm down. Nothing bad will happen to you while you are under my care," she said trying to pacify his fears.
"Thank you, Ma'am Jessy!" Teddy smiled a little, feeling a bit comforted that the person standing beside him was human just like him.
They finally arrived in the study room.
Jessy pushed the door open and they step inside.
No one is inside. The queen has not arrived yet.
"Have a seat, Teddy, let's wait for the presence of the Queen of all vampires, she would like to say a few words to you before you go home," Jessy said. She picked up one magazine from the center table and handed it to him. "While waiting, read this magazine for a while so that you won't get bored..." she suggested.
Teddy accepted the magazine and began reading an interesting topic about space exploration on page five.
While he was engrossed in his reading, Jessy's right hand moved and freeze him on the spot.
The door of the study room opened and Queen Margaret come inside. "Is this—Teddy?" she asked.
"Yes, Mother. I already freeze him. You can begin erasing his memory anytime you want..." Jessy said.
"Okay, that's good. I will start now!" Queen Margaret went to Teddy's side and place her hands on his head... then she began the process of erasing some part of his memory relating to the abduction.
"I will go to my room for a while, Mother, I will come back later," she said.
"Okay, go ahead," Queen Margaret replied.
~~~o0o~~~
One hour and thirty minutes later.
Jessy comes back to the study room.
The queen was done erasing Teddy's memory of the abduction. "He is under your responsibility now," the queen said.

Omnipocalypse Monsters(Shelved Timeline)
System Edit: This timeline has been shelved, but the adventures of the Omegas and her kids will continue in the next System Update Timeline with additional foes and challenges early on to guide the Omegas into a less destructive path of protection.The Omnipocalypse was every apocalypse humans ever imagined all happening at once, zombies, plagues, nukes, EMPs, Robot uprisings. Not just the earth either, It happened to every World ever dreamed up by men too: heaven, hell, and every other afterlife or spirit world ended, plus the worlds of books and stories bled into reality. It all broke apart and either; became new places on the chaotic Earth or part of the even messier spirit world. Magic beasts mutated by radiation, Robots mastering Magic, the mixture of everything made the horrors... well, more horrible. Omega; A young Woman with few memories wakes to find she has spent 2500 years in stasis, in a basement of scientific horrors. Creatures and Things that could supposedly destroy the world if ever let free. Horrors of which she was the last to get free. Rather then Quest for world domination or destruction; Omega keeps getting drawn into a protective role over other orphans, lost monsters, and broken AIs. So she decides to build something to help all her little monster family be safe. -------This story is meant to be a behind the scenes look at stories about kids solving problems that should be beyond them. I always wanted to see a story about Professor Oak, Dumbledore, or any other mentor who trains the main characters. I like the idea of someone looking at the apocalyptic world and deciding to make it safe enough that a small child can wander off and make some monster their pet. The pokemon games have fun systems to consider the behind the scenes workings of, like what training a team rocket member goes through to become a villain cut out for children to defeat. how they prevent a deific pokemon from accidentally murdering some little rat with its immense psionic power. However, the story itself is not really meant to be a pokemon parody, I draw inspiration from every genre of fiction, any type of game, this story is the only one I plan of ever writing without a clear cut ending planned, I love the infinite storytelling capacity of things like Doctor who's TARDIS, the Stargate or Rick's portal gun. In this case, I wanted the setting itself to be one where any and every story might happen. Cover Image by kalli gruen from Pixabay Discord Image by Digital Photo and Design DigiPD.com from Pixabay

The Apocalypse Show - Dungeon Core
There were lot's of ways that people had predicted that the world would end. A few even had it partially correct. But how could they have predicted it would be a combination of the system apocalypse and aliens. Specifially aliens that wanted to create the equivlant of a TV show about the system apocalypse on Earth. Arthur woke up with a headache and the option to create a character. Most people would have gone with the safe choice and selected to stay a human. Arthur suspected that wouldn't be the safe choice in his new world. Instead he decided to see what other races were available. Eventually he decided to become a dungeon core instead. Of course being a dungeon core comes with a number of challenges. Starting with the fact that he was a giant crystal instead of having a body, managing a bunch of unintelligent minons, and most importantly the reaction of his human neighbors when they discover him. If he can overcome these challenges he may be able to enjoy some of the benefits. Such as the fact that dungeon cores are immortal and he would eventually have an entire army of dungeon minions that would obey any of his commands. Perhaps even find some female companions that are looking for a safe place during the apocalypse. Warning: If this fiction was a movie I'd rate it R for occasional scenes of violence, gore, nudity, and sexual content. This isn't something you would find in the young adult section. This does not mean that this would be rated NC-17 or X, if that is what you are looking for try lewd dungeon.
