Falling In Love : I Love You, Today And Forever Chapter 124
Advertisement
"What the hell was that!!" Joshua bellowed in rage. To say he was shocked would be an understatement, he was beyond shocked. The man who had trained Noah, Ian and him was dead and he was killed in a gruesome manner. Jo was overcome with grief, rage, shock and all other emotions which he couldn't control.
Noah too was having the same feeling. His blood was boiling, he never expected his mentor to have been murdered. Wiping the lone tear that slid down his cheek, he called out to Joshua.
"Jo, can you do a voice recognition on the man? I hope we can find who he was at least if not for the killer."
Noah's words brought Joshua out of his thoughts. "Wait a second."
He typed a series of codes and the video started playing again. "Alvis, perform voice identification." He ordered.
"Yes, Master." The AI bot replied and soon the hologram screen was filled with pages and pages of codes. It took more than ten minutes for the voice recognition to complete.
"Master, I have found the results."
The screen then showed the names and photos of two people whose voices were heard on the video. One of them was their mentor while the other was the person who their mentor had held in a deadlock before he was shot by a mysterious person.
"Get me the details of Kane Bright." Kane Bright was the man who was being followed by their mentor in the clip.
"Yes, Master." The AI ran for another few minutes before Alvis started speaking.
"Name: Kane Bright. Previously known as Liam Mason, Colin Stark to name a few. Age: 47 Date of Birth: 27 November 1972 Occupation: Doctor Working at: Previously worked at Good City Clinic. Current workplace not available. Marital Status: Not married Address: Not registered."

"Stop," Joshua instructed and the robot stopped speaking the next second.
"I know this man," Joshua observed Kane's picture for a long time to recollect where he had seen him. "Yes, I remember now."
"Do you know him?" Noah asked looking at him intently while Ronnie remained silent. The number of times he had met his boss's mentor could be counted with his fingers and every time he was left dumbfounded by the man's agility and skills. Though he had not been trained by him, Ronnie had come to admire him eventually.
Also, he did not know his name. Not only Ronnie even Ian, Noah, and Joshua did not know their mentor's name. He did not tell them and they did not ask him. Though the AI had found out his name to be Theo Williams, they realized that it was not his original name. He changed his name every few days and for what reasons they did not know.
"When you were in London, a piece of news was broadcasted. It was a sting operation performed on the doctors in a small hospital called Good City Clinic and this man named Kane was also in the video. It looked like he was the head of the clinic or something like that."
"You have got to be kidding me," Noah said after listening to him. He knew his mentor was trying to find the people involved in the organ trafficking crime just like Aria's father. But he did not know that he was keeping an eye on a person named Kane.
"Guess who was the one to performed the sting operation?."
"Who?" Noah raised his eyebrows waiting for his answer, but only received a smile in return.
"Don't tell me...." Noah asked, his eyes wide in surprise.
"Yes, it is your beloved sister-in-law."

"Wow." This time Ronnie too was surprised. He had not heard of his Madam's sister yet. After listening to Joshua's words he concluded that his Madam's sister was an extraordinary woman too.
"After the video of the sting operation was released, this man named Kane had gone into hiding," Joshua stated trying to process his thoughts.
"Since this pen drive was in the possession of Oliver West, when do you think Mentor died?" Noah queried, deep in thought.
"Does that mean he died somewhere around the time we took Mr. West with us?" Ronnie voiced, looking forth between the two men.
"No way. Alvis, find out how old the footage is."
"Yes, Master." It took them no less than two minutes to find out that the video was shot three years ago, just two days before they saved Oliver and took him with them.
"Darn it." Noah was seething in anger. His mentor was dead long back and he did not even know about it. He was filled with remorse and grief. Their hopes of finding him alive were gone. In fact, their hopes of even finding his body were gone. His body would have decomposed by now leaving only the bones that nobody knew where they were lying.
The room was filled with silence, each having their own rumination. They left the lab and went to the living room. Not in the mood to speak, they sat down silently. At that moment, Noah's phone dinged. It was a message from Aria.
'Did you reach home safe? Good night. Take care.'
Her message eased him a little, clearing his thoughts. They had to do something, the situation was going out of hand. The person who he wanted to save desperately was gone. So, now he did not have any fear in executing his plans. He might as well start with them.
"What shall we do now?" Noah asked suddenly. "Jo, can you see if Kane has made an appearance somewhere after the clinic incident. We might find out where he is hiding."
"I could do that." Joshua nodded.
"Ronnie, find all the people who were involved in this incident, nurses, doctors, all the hospital staff. I want them at any cost. Remember no innocent must be harmed."
"Yes, Boss."
"Jo, help him gather the information."
"What are you going to do?" Joshua questioned absent-mindedly, his mind still reeling the way his master was killed. Even to him, who had dealt with a lot of blood, the scene looked brutal.
"I am going to join hands with Ivy to try and bring all the hospitals who are presently involved in this matter. Those bastards may be hiding their crimes from the public, but not from me."
"How are you going to do that?"
"It's easy. I am going to find all the doctors who became rich overnight. This cannot be done without any shady dealings."
"That could be a possibility."
"Boss, just a small question." Ronnie raised his hand like a small kid.
"Yes?"
"Do you want your grandfather to know about your mentor's death?" Ronnie asked slowly. He had heard from his boss that they were quite close though they were not related by blood.
"Not yet. I will reveal it after I find the murderer, until then I hope he does not get to know about it." Noah's eyes were blazing with fire ready to burn anybody who would stand in his way.
"Fair enough." Joshua and Ronnie agreed.
"Be prepared. Things might go out of hand."

Keter
They called him "Keter"; The Top-Most; The Crown. An unsurpassable, unstoppable, unkillable soldier. Etched with a twisted set of morals and studded by an impossible drive for lachesism, Keter terrorized the world for ages. But time, you see, is a most patient thing. As sure as it gives, so does it take. Even the Crown saw the eternal spindle drawing on him. He blinked, for the last time, and saw a world anew. Synopsis. So, basically, I’ve gotten tired of all these stale mcs that keep popping up left right and center. Either they are painstakingly good-natured or horribly written ‘evil’ characters. So, here’s my take on the concept of a Villain. Someone ruthless, cunning, and not shy of seeking darker means to an end. Hell, as long as it’s effective, he’ll prefer the blacker side of business. The new world will be, like many others, one in a medieval-type setting with traces of magic and the like; though I hope to make better use of this than most others who simply steal ideas from classical novels or other sources.

Tentatively Slime

Beings capable of crushing mountains with their monstrous might, creatures that breathe fire and magic and death all at once. In this land, our story begins. Hello dear readers. Long have I been a voracious book gobbler and tonight I thought I'd try my hand. However I crave acknowledgement so please leave a review, all criticism is welcome. If my meagre offerings are accepted by the book gods, (and to a lesser extent, this community) I shall endeavor to persevere with my writing, though this was done on a whim. Probably will be edited at some point, perhaps blue box chan will make an appearance. Typos are likely, please point them out if you see any. And now that you have been captivated by my enchanting synopsis, please enjoy.

Dip$h!+s in Space
An eccentric comedy novel (that thinks it's a TV show) about space, and the Dipsh!+s that end up stranded in it. This hyper-self-aware comedy of stupid proportions, centers around Captain William T Lawg (no relation) and his adventures as a guy who managed to afford a refitted soft-top ice-cream truck, in space. Explore the universe with his trusty crew of valiant randos. Marley, the tech-bro, stoner spacebunny, who just wants to get away from his home world and the bullies it harbors. Duffy, the plump and sassy female mechanic, who has had every job in existence totaling far more years than possible. Roy, the frigging fabulous, flamboyant android, and former spy…or possibly current spy. (dun dun, daaaa!) And lastly, but certainly leastly, that other chick the captain keeps trying to bang. Ride with the crew of the notorious Tast-E-Chill, to a world of wonder that a lot of other space travelers have already been before, but probably not Lawg, so it's still exciting. This satirical joke on itself and every sci-fi trope ever to exist, will be sure to either thrill you or disappoint you, because COMEDY…IS…SUBJECTIVE! With a crew of 3-10 and an IQ of also probably 3-10, The captain putters along to uncharted lands, where history, loot, drama, innuendos of the sexual verity, and various Technicolor hoes shall surely be waiting, usually with some form of trap. Each season brings new and interesting crewmen, like: Menace: the adorable genderless frog-child-thing with the heart of gold and the dialogue vocabulary of a slightly trained parrot. Greg: the 8 foot tall, ancient, thermonuclear, semi-retired alien overlord who just wants to prove he still has a purpose…and also to rule the galaxy. Izzy: a 3rd generation, age-reversed reboot, accidental clone of her own mother/sister/older self, who happens to be Greg's daughter-in-law…and much, much more. Prepare yourself for shallow adventure, moderately-to high offensive dialogue, and overwhelmingly childish scenarios. Tag along as the crew battles, fierce enemies, lack of food and survival tape, and occasionally their own incompetence. Teen Romance, current politics, subtlety, dignity, this sucker has none of those, and it darn well knows it. Raise the sails and grab the rails as a bunch of dipsh!+s find themselves...IN SPACE. (Roll dramatic tapering credits, to royalty free trumpet music)

Hope
There were 2 options: Fight the same war for countless more aeons. Shatter the Betrayer's undead legions time and time again until all was ground to dust. Because the endless legions truly never end. A hair's breath of ground in a century is enough if the war takes all of eternity. Or to choose Hope. To cast away his memories, his power, his very life. To wager everything on a chance to prevent their eventual end or to perish trying. Because if he were to return it would be with the power necessary to finally slay what remains of the Betrayer. Of the last Aspect. Only then would all things be right. And so, he chose the latter. Expect:Weak to strong quick-ish.Powerful MC reincarnates, gradually starts regaining memories.MC that is an actual character not a plot device.My original unique magic system discovered along with the MC.My original setting with mythos that have both been living rent free in my head for actual years.Opening arc will be less fast than the following story. Good writing (I think) and grammar. Upload schedulle: 2 chapters a week of 3-4k words each. I want to upscale to 3 in the future. Meant to be read in RR dark mode. For those coming here from my other stories, this is indeed a reimagining of my older story, CotM. I say reimagining because I have changed so much it cannot be called just a rewrite. Among the major changes, MC is fundamentally different in personality and background, I have actually planned the story out and changed it almost completely and I have adjusted my mythos so it no longer has as many holes as swiss cheese.
