The Last Embrace Chapter 436

"Is that what you wanted from me? Okay, go on...please tell me more..." she said, getting interested.
"As you can see, internally, our society was gripped with many problems arising from drug-related crimes destroying the people's mental and health problems, human smuggling and trafficking, poverty and a lot more. Instead of channeling a huge budget into health care and alleviating poverty, the government is investing more in war equipment to strengthen the nation's security. See...? The country should invest more in the peoples well being not in war equipment. The truth is if we can't locate the source of the problem. The problem keeps coming, it's a never-ending cycle. Only by cutting the problems down to its root, they can be prevented," said the Colonel in a frustrated manner.
"So what is your plan, Sir?" she asked.
"Accompany us on our mission. First, I especially wanted to solve the drug problem in our society and there are a lot more problems waiting to be solved but we don't have much talent like yours," he said. "I want to know who is the drug suppliers and how they bring the drugs in the country and where did they manufacture the drugs," he said. "My beloved nephew died because of a drug overdose, it's painful and a big blow to our family. I don't want anybody to suffer the same fate ever again," he said sadly.
"Second, human smuggling and trafficking is another headache in our society. I want to know who is involved in this sick trade. Who are the devils who kidnap and sold people against their will, this evilness must stop!"
"Third, sending our troops abroad to support and help other countries and ended up dying in a foreign land for the cause that isn't ours, to begin with. I hate war on both sides because it makes the people of each country suffer real hard. The ironic thing is that leaders are willing to go to war and yet it's the people, the soldiers who are dying and suffering due to the stupidity of some of the world leaders. I've been thinking about you and what you are capable of, that if you are guided properly you can help solve many problems that our country is facing. It would be a waste of time if you will sit idle inside the Facility and can not contribute to the society which you are part of, after all, you are half-human," he concluded his speech.

Jessy was silent for a moment. Solving several problems within the country will be easy for her. Because of her power, she can do so much. But sending her abroad proved to be difficult because she has daily blood transfusion to worry about unless all the vampires are done transforming into humans, then that will be the time she will be willing to go abroad and help the soldiers fighting enemies there.
"Sir, I don't have a problem with the mission abroad, but I can't go there yet because I must transform all my clan into humans. As for the mission inside the country, I'm willing to render my services to the government in return for my people's peace and safety. All I ask is that let me finish transforming all the vampires into humans first and after that, I'm willing to be sent abroad for whatever mission that is required of me," she said.
Colonel Brown surveyed the Crossbreed's face. "Aside from you, is there any powerful vampire with the same power as you? It would be much better if the vampire clan can provide us at least two representatives so that we can speed up the mission and produce impressive results. In turn, when we are about to present to the government the excellent result of every mission, the government won't hesitate to grant clemency to the vampires and employ your skill. It will be a win-win situation for both parties," he said.
Jessy fell silent for a moment. She can't reveal to them about Adam and other vampires with superpowers like her because she knows that being a representative of the vampire clan the government will have full control of that person. As a representative, they will be at the beck and call of the government. It will be a whole life servitude with no end. But if it's the only way to achieve peace and safety for the entire surviving vampire clan, someone has to do it. She knows that if Adam will know about this... he will also be willing to take the opportunity and responsibility.

"Let me discuss this matter to my clan first, Sir. We will choose the best representative for our clan. I will come back here if we already decided on the other one," she said.
"Okay, that's good," the colonel smiled.
Jessy was observing the military officers' faces. She needed to know if they're indeed serious with their willingness to help the vampire clan attain peace and security. And there is only one way to find out...
She waved her hand at both of them freezing them instantly.
She went to Colonel Brown's side and placed her hands over his head. She needs to see his memory and find out how sincere he is with his intention to bring peace to the table between the surviving vampires and the government.
Jessy began scanning his memories from the early days up to the present times.
It took her one hour to see everything in his mind. Colonel Brown is indeed telling her the truth, he has good intentions.
Done with the colonel, she went to the captain's side and did the same.
It took her another hour to finish scanning his memory as well. And just like the colonel, she can't find anything wrong with the captain. He has a good heart just like the colonel.
Now, she was finally convinced that she can trust them.
She waved her hand at them, unfreezing them.
The military officers were looking at each other.
"D-did you do something to us?" the colonel asked.
Jessy grinned and confessed. "I freeze you two for two hours, and scan the memories in your heads so that I can see for myself the degree of your sincerity to help my clan," she explained.
Colonel Brown and Capt. Mercado looked at each other.
"And what did you see?" Capt. Mercado asked curiously.
"You guys are sincere because if you are planning to deceive me and I see that evil intention in your heads, you are already dead by now," she gives them a death glare.
The colonel laughed and clapped his hands. "That's awesome! You can read minds as well? Fantastic! We can use that skill of yours for the greater good," he said excitedly.
"Alright Gentlemen, I need to go home now, I will be back within this week. Prepare the first mission, I want all the details and what I'm getting into," Jessy said and disappeared from their sight.

Reminiscence
My website: https://putiancom.wordpress.com This is a short story about revenge or something along the lines. (This is my first story ever written so please go ham at criticising my work.) Death. It is a form of punishment or torture. And can be also be a form of salvation. Ultimately, it forms different perspectives depending on the beholder itself and on how the beholder take it as. Life. A point in time where finding your purpose. Purpose, of life itself and experience its flow, either epiphany or hell. Death. It is an end. A point of no return. It also makes the beholder feel free, breaking away from the chain of life. It makes the beholder recollect and reflect when crossing the boundary between life and death. Boundaries. A place where a path will ultimately, be chosen with or without consideration in the decision, free. . . . A place where recounting life, take it as a feeling. The joys and sorrow accumulated, playing back, making the beholder reexperience life. "Reminiscing."

Magikind [Original]
The third millennia, a time of change and evolution. An era, where people, through countless generations, have evolved strange powers and abilities. Through several centuries of selective breeding, these beings, known as mages, have become part of the very foundations of society. However, some refused to change or adapt. They believed in purity and refused to interbreed with magikind. Known as the manush, they were a rarity among society. Now, in the fifth millennia, the manush are thought extinct. With magikind ruling the world, a three-way war grips society. In these uncertain times, a manush called Gin, will herald a new era for all Magikind. A story of how man could realistically evolve while still pushing boundaries. Disclaimer: Chapters will be edited once the first volume is done. Bear the beginning for the time being, and hopefully you can see my writing improving over time (I've learnt a lot on how to write because of this (though I'm still not perfect :P)) Proud Member of Writers to the End, WriTE The link to the pledged fictions PS. If you find the 'notes' too boring or too info-dumpy, feel free to skip them and just read the main chapters. They're there for the reader to understand Gin's world (written in the perspective of Gin). But later on, we can see some interactions between the main characters and the occasional references to his past in the notes, so it has its purpose.
