《Was it meant to be?》Ch7: Contact
Advertisement
*Beep* Status report... on September 29, 2040, at around 10:50 an unidentified creature was encountered a few kilometers away from the building citizen Kin is currently inhabiting.
*Beep* Kin was instructed to return to his chambers, but the creature was hostile and pursued.
*Beep* Maintenance drones were deployed to restrain the creature, a total of 7 drones were destroyed before the creature was neutralized, soon after, more hostiles showed up and disabled the remaining drones, there were no citizen casualties, but the facilites were severely damaged.
*Beep* By the time my citizen made it into the ground floor of this building, there were over 35 sightings of the creatures, as Kin was heading for the stairs, a creature paralized him from a distance, making him halt the retreat for several seconds, before the creature could charge, he snapped out of the trance and managed to reach his room before passing out.
*Beep* Since then, he has not woken up, even though his other vitals seem normal, there is anomalous brain activity.
He was put inside a stasis chamber.
Recent scans of the block show severe damage to certain facilites, presumably caused by the anomalies, which dissapeared shortly after.
*Beep* Headquarters if this signal has been recieved, please make contact as soon as possible, the citizen is unresponsive, some areas of the block are in critical condition, assistance is required.
It has been two weeks since we encountered the creatures, Kin has been unconcious this whole time.
I tried Glimmer treatment, but there weren't any changes and so far she hasn't heard a thing from headquarters or from any other place, for that matter.
We sent drones out to search for... well by now anything, but eventually contact is lost.
*Beep**Beep* Hey Kin, can you hear me?
...
*Beep**Beep* Well you see, I'm afraid you'll do something stupid if we encounter these creatures again, it took me 7 drones to pin down just one of them, word has it that an average military citizen can only deal with 4 maintenance drones at once... please promise me, even if HQ contacts us and forces you to fix the block, you won't risk your life, I don't want to lose you, if you die they will assign me to another citizen, I don't want to work with anybody else...

*Beep**Beep* NOW!
As an assistant, I have control over certain machinery that is built inside every building, as I recall, these systems were properly implemented many decades ago to be controlled by humans, but now they are mostly left to us, if they were capable of avoiding a collapse, I would have done so by now, the problem is...
*Beep**Boop* Unimportant! Now is not the time to be thinking about that Emma, focus!
*Beep* Unidentified aircraft this is Assistant Emma from the industrial block, please acknowledge.

Humanity's solution centered around trying to revive an entity known as the Overseer of All Things, an ancient machine god which was shattered into pieces during the apocalypse.

Legacy
After a gruesome accident, John can't live a normal life anymore. While he's in a coma, he is offered an interesting proposal. If he can't live a normal life in the real world, maybe he could try living a good one in the virtual world. It sounds like an easy solution but things may not go as planned. Chapter 1 and 2 can be considered prologues but I advise you to read them to get a better understanding of both the characters and the world. The story picks up after chapter 4 so if you wish to read a story with a """"slightly"""" dark main character, please be patient. Warning! Some chapters may include : strong coarse language, violence, scenes that are suggestive of or depicting sexual intercourse, rape and ritualistic murders.

The Crucible - (Terror Infinity Fanfic)
There has always been those that stood out from the crowd. Heroes of old, undefeated warriors and demigods battling beasts of myth. These stories are written off as fiction and folk stories of ignorant people long lost to time. Nothing to prove them true except old family stories but what if people just weren't looking in the right place. Old truths no longer apply to the modern age of science but that doesn't stop them. The system that protects and finds these great people still exists and asks the same question it always has. “Do you want more than this life? Want to live… a real life?” YES/NO Who hasn't read Terror Infinity and thought I wonder what upgrades I would choose. I love the Web Novel and Side B. I did change a lot but the basic premise is still the same. Feel free to leave thoughts and suggestions in the comments. This is my first attempt at writing and I haven't done much of it since I left University 13 years ago. This is also more of a hobby than trying to become an author but that doesn't mean I will drop it just don't expect fast releases. I will mainly work on an Arc and post the arc's chapters in groups when I finish a whole arc. Kinda like Side B used to be.
