《The Mysterious Secret》Chapter 9
Advertisement
I woke up feeling very groggy, my body felt very exhausted and didn't even want to move. I yawned, opened my eyes, and realized where I was... in a testing lab. I still felt much too exhausted to even struggle, so I sat lied there, waiting. What felt like for hours, I was contemplating what had happened in my life. Me being the good quiet kid at school. My mom and dad always being there for me, helping me in all the ways they could think of. Then Hannah... Hannah! Where was she?
I looked around and could not spot her anywhere, then as I was looking, a scientist, walked in on if he was on cue. He then wrote several things on a notepad. He set it down in the place it just was, and walked over to me.
"One second", he told me, "Let me do this." He adjusted my restraints. I stared at him observantly, studying why he did, although it was to no use. This man in front of me seemed as if he wasn't even in his twenty's. He had brown hair, hazel eyes, and wore the typical lab coat you would think of. As he finished adjusting my restraints, he looked at me and told me something I would never forget.
"You", he said, "You are something extraordinary. Many of us people here at this lab have never seen someone like you. You are truly, truly special, remember that." He then immediately made a quick retreat of of the room I was in, leaving me astounded. My conscious re-emerged and I realized that I still hadn't seen or heard Hannah. Out of the corner of my eye I spotted a head with brown hair... it was Hannah.
"Hannah", I asked, "Hannah are you awake?" No response. "Hannah!" I said, louder this time. Still no response. I was now getting increasingly worried. "HANNAH!" I yelled, one last time. I heard a groan and saw her head move. I breathed a sigh of relief. As I started to relax, I heard Hannah speak to me.

"Hey Trey, what happened?" She asked.
I told her responding to her question, "I'm pretty sure we got tricked, so we're trapped again." She turned her head so I could see her face. It seemed as if she was unharmed in any way, only she looked a bit drowsy, I was still tired too. She weakly smiled and I followed suit.
"I wish we weren't here..." she said. She turned her head back to look at the ceiling. I just gave up trying to talk, knowing she only wanted to rest for a little more. I closed my eyes and let my mind go blank.
"Do not be afraid," I heard.
"What did you say?" I asked Hannah.
"I didn't say anything," She told me groggily.
"Oh..." I replied. I let my mind go blank again.
"You can leave..." I heard once again.
"What?" I said, confused.
"I didn't say anything, just let me take another rest." She replied, getting annoyed.
"Listen to me, I can help", now I knew no one was saying this. But I waited. And listened. "You are trapped, this I know, but I know of a way out." I looked around, one more time, making sure no one was talking to me. And to my despair, no one was. "First you must be removed of restraints."
"And how do I do that" I whispered, doubting this voice a lot, this could easily be just another test.
"Just say the words, 'Yarlen labs', and you will both be free."
I worried, but at the moment, it was all I could do... so I said the words. "Yarlen labs!"
And with that, the restraints released, and I was free.

Shatter the Heavens; Slaughter the Gods
Arminius of the ancient era stood over mankind with the ability to perform magic. His ability allowed him to triumph over mortal armies and carve a domain for himself. Then, the martialists attacked. Their individual strength was lower than that of magicians, but the sheer number of them made them an unstoppable force. In the wake of tens of thousands of martialists and hundreds of thousands of mortal warriors, one lone magician was unable to stand against the tide. But, the powers of a magician allowed Arminius to escape the cycle of reincarnation, landing him an eon into the future. In the new age, magicians are entirely extinct, and the martialists from the old era have perfected their martial way, allowing them to attain godly powers that far surpass what Arminius was ever capable of.

Marakar
Far from the exploration he yearned to go on, Rae, the Kijah prince, finds himself in the middle of the impending war between Kijah'dar and Ga'ani. Unknown to him, or to the rest of the states, the Kijah Magister plots to overthrow the queen, and he will stop at nothing to achieve his plans. Marakar is a fantasy adventure series about the island states of Mar’narana (with focus primarily on the two states, Kijah'dar and Ga'ani). Tensions between the big players are rising, with more and more plots getting revealed, and powers are unexpectedly shifting. As the string of seemingly unconnected events grows taut, the smaller nations suddenly find themselves into the midst of things, struggling with the sudden shifting of their boards. On a more meta note, I am trying to develop two storylines parallel to each other. As you might have noticed, odd-numbered chapters are very different from even-numbered chapters. That’s because those are the two different storylines; odd-numbered chapters are in the present, while even-numbered ones are in the past. Once the two eventually meet I'll continue with just the present storyline. This story can also be found here where it currently updates every other Sunday (about twice a month). Feedback is greatly appreciated! Thank you for taking the time to read. :) tw/cw list (please take care of your mental health! Don't force yourself to read these chapters if they may harm you). -------> Chapter 14: hate crime description.
