Two men with white coats get out of a van. One of them is wearing a black shirt and the other a blue shirt. One of them is holding a black suitcase. They close the door and start walking toward the big, tall building that says "Biotech". Two guards stand at the entrance.
"Hello," says the man with the black shirt.
"Hello," replies the guard. "Can I please see some identification."
The man takes out his pocket an ID card and gives it to the guard. The guard looks at the card that says:
Dr. Ronnie Adams
Department Head
The guard returns the card to Dr. Adams and the doctor puts his hand on the scanner fingers. The guard's computer recognize him as Dr. Ronnie Adams, Head of the Department of Experimental. Dr. Adams moves forward and waits for the other man. The second man brings the guard his ID card which read:
Dr. Tom Carter
Deputy Head of Department
The guard returns the card to Dr. Carter and Carter puts his hand on the scanner fingers. The computer recognizes him as Dr. Tom Carter, Deputy Head of experience. Tom Advanced and walks with Ronnie. They continue straight until they reach the elevator. Rooney presses the button for the elevator, the elevator opens and they enter.
Laboratory
A man sits and Examines a few test tubes. The door opened and a man enters the room with a brown suitcase and puts it on the table.
"Good morning, John."
The Man that Examines the test tubes look at him and say "Good morning, Mike" and adds little in surprise, "I see you're early today."
"Yeah, because you stayed up all night yesterday, so now I thought I would join you" replies Mike and sits down next to him.
"You know that I worked yesterday until now because I'm traveling today with my friend to France."
"Yes, but you could use some company until you go."
"The truth is that I have to leave in a few minutes, the flight is from Los Angeles."
"Los Angeles?" Mike replies in a surprise "this is far away. Why you aren't flying from the airport in San Francisco?"
"My friend's parents live in Los Angeles and he need to have their home before he will get on the flight."

"Okay. you want some coffee? because I really need a good coffee to wake up."
"Yes, thank you," replies John.
Mike gets up and leaves the room.
Elevator
The elevator opens at the 18th floor and the two doctors get out and walk in the corridor between the laboratories rooms.
"I don't trust him," says Tom.
"I already told you, I know him," replies Ronnie.
"I know, but still ..."
"I worked with him once and he is very good at what he is doing," interrupts Ronnie. "Don't worry."
They turn right and continue walking.
The kitchen next to the lab
Mike pours hot water into a glass and take two cups back to the lab. He entered the lab, he serves John the coffee, sits down and says: "When I was in France ten years ago I didn't take GPS with me. I relied only on the map and the local people. Once I lost my direction and didn't know where is my hotel. I asked some French to direct me and they try to guide you nicely, but they barely know English. Luckily, I was with someone who knows French and in the end we reached the hotel. In short, you will not make it in France without GPS. "
"I always come prepared, you know." John says, adding, "Besides, I have a good GPS in my phone."
John sips his coffee and says:"It's a good coffee. I hope the three weeks that you worked with me would be enough that you will Conduct properly the lab when I'm gone."
"You know I'll be fine"
"yes"

John turns to Mike and says: "Well, I have to go now, bye."
John goes and before he closes the door, Mike says: "Enjoy your holiday and don't forget to buy for me a chocolate in the Duty Free."
"Sure," replies John and closes the door.

"What you need is in drawer E 32," says John.
"It is in drawer E 32" Tom says to Ronnie .Tom goes to the drawer and opens it. In the drawer there is a locked silver safe.
"What is the secret code?" Ronnie asks John.

"Do not forget to take care of the guards"
" It will be dealt," replies John and hangs up.
He entered the elevator and the door closes.
Control room
Two guards sit on swivel chairs and look at Security Cameras. One of the guards noticed two cameras extinguished.
"Hey, look," he says.
The second security guard is looking at the camera and says: "Tell Ban to check it, he is on 18th floor."
The first security guard says in the communication: "old camera does not work in room number 12, will examine what happened?"
"All right," replies Ben and starts walking towards the 12 room.

"Yes, I heard, and I hope you enjoy it," says Ben.
"I just wanted to know what places do you recommend me to visit."
"You know I'm not good at recommending things at abroad. I never went out the US "says Ben.
"Oh."
"Well, listen, I need to check something then I'm in a hurry, OK?"
"Okay, bye" replies John and goes.
He starts walking briskly toward the elevator.
Ben turns right and sees the camera that was destroyed. He examines it and says in the communication: "This camera is destroyed. I'm going to see what happened in room 12."
Ben entered the room and noticed the safe was opened. He says in the communication: "Someone came by and stole something from the vault."
"What safe is it?" Asks the guard in the communication.
Ben looks at the safe and says: "It's Written on the safe E 32."
"I am setting the alarm," says the guard.

A World Forgotten
***This story will contain lite-litrpg elements, mainly character pages and a town page. There will also be settlement building and adventuring, missteps and achievements. But one thing it definitely won’t have is a harem. Nor will it have an overpowered MC. Contains mild cursing.*** ***feel free to critique my writing and offer input. This is my first venture into writing. I've always enjoyed litrpg/gamelit books. I feel like I write how I talk, so it may be a little different. You won't hurt my feelings if you see something wrong or out of place! *** ***What follows is a condensed part of chapter 1. Enjoy!*** Drew Cooper is thrust into a new, unfamiliar world. Waking up in his sweats and t-shirt near what seems to be a forgotten path through some woods, he struggles coming to terms that he's no longer in his apartment. As he tries to cope with his new reality, he hears a horse coming down the path. He hides behind a nearby tree dreading what may happen next. As the horse approaches, he sees a man walking next to it. The horse is burdened with packs and gear. When the man nears, Drew nearly panics. He has a large sword strapped to his waist, obviously a fighter. He continues to hide as the man slowly passes only for the man to stop a dozen meters past his hiding spot. "You may as well come out, ya know. You weren't as well hidden as you thought," the man stated matter-of-factly, letting the horse’s reins go and putting his hand on the hilt of his sword. Slowly and scared for his life, Drew raised up and walked from behind the tree. "I-I'm sorry. I wasn't planning on attacking you. I-I don't know where I am. I heard your horse and hid. I didn't know what you'd do if you saw me. I'm sorry," he nervously blurted out. A minute passed. Then two. The man seemed interested with Drew and stepped closer, eyes squinting as if trying to see something. "What's that on your shirt? Is that. What is that? Is that, Pac-man?" The man was visibly shaken while pointing at me. Looking down at his t-shirt nervously, "Yea. Yea. I woke up here a few hours ago I think. 3 maybe 4 hours. I’ve just been sitting here. Where am I? What's going on?" Drew asked. "That's not important right now," the man replied. " What's important is where you're from. What year is it?" "What year? April something 2020. Why? What's going on?" Drew continued now worried. The man was taken aback. After a few moments, he seemed to calm himself some. The man sighed and looked at Drew in earnest. "Well, I've got good news and bad news for ya. Bad news is you're not on Earth anymore. Good news is you happened to run into me and not someone else. You’re either really lucky, or it’s fate we met in these woods, and I don’t believe in luck." The man continued to walk towards Drew while talking and put out his hand. "I'm John Mitchell from St. Louis or thereabouts. You’ve got nothing to be scared of by me. Walk with me and let’s talk."

There he will face British slavers, pirates, and the ghosts of his past to become the bane of his enemies as the Czarina's Buccaneer. ----- DISCLAIMER: This novel acknowledges the fact that the Cossacks, and the Ukrainian people by extension, are unique and not simply a "different variety of Russians." The main character views the Russians as "moskal foreigners" and does not see himself as one. This also acknowledges the fact that the czarina deprived many of the Cossacks of their freedom, something that the main character resents.
