《The Inventor of Magic》19: Chameleon
Advertisement
So here we are a better written chapter but still short. Definitely going to a chapter every two days. For now, enjoy! ^O^
>>>Zach POV
"Ma~n that lesson was boring. It's a good thing I wasn't there... He he he.",
You'll find that a simple hologram array mixed with a teleport is quite good to escape from the never ending haunting drone of an English teacher.
"*sigh* What should I do now?", I said to myself as I walked away from main school building.
...
Ah, what a great idea! Richard did say to enjoy myself afterall. Since I have nothing else to do, why not?
[Teleport]
As soon as I thought of it my thought was intercepted and the [Teleport] rune was activated. Suddenly I appeared in my workshop.
"Right then!", I said mischievously as I smiled to myself. "I have a little under one hour!",

45 minutes later

*grin* "Ha ha ha ha ha! This will keep me entertained for ages!",
Behold! My masterpiece, the wonderful, the amazing. Chameleon Array!
Okay, okay. So the name is not exactly matching the function of the array itself. But! It doesn't matter anyway. It's only something I quickly put together in an hour, I'm sure that if I finish it properly I will give it a better name.
So what is it? Well, simply put, in under one hour I Zach Morton have created an array that can change what you look like!
It isn't solid but for all intense and purposes it works. I got the idea for the hologram stunt I made in the English classroom. By using a hologram that is slightly bigger than the body overplayed on top of the real body I can make a hologram that moves along with the body. All I needed to do was get the hologram array and attach it to a basic physical enhancement in order to make the hologram move with the body.

It's quite hard to maintain the array but it's not too bad.
So what am I going to do with this array? Well simple, I'm going to go have a chat with David.

>>>David POV
Ugh. This is why I like holidays! It's only a few days into the new term and already I have two stacks of papers to look through. TWO STACKS!
*sigh*, seriously.
*Knock* *Knock*
"What now?!",
"Sorry for interrupting Sir, there is a man here that said he came to see you.",
"I thought I said I didn't want any interruptions!",
"Yes well he said he was an old friend of yours. Does a mister Richard sound familiar to you at all sir?",
"Richard!? What's he doing here? Isn't he meant to be running the company. Hmm, send him in.",
"Yes sir.",
My secretary nodded and quickly left. Let's see what that old dog wants then shall we?
*Knock* *Knock*
"Come in",
The door opened and in walked the familiar face of Richard.
"Hello David, how are you?",
"Me? Oh I'm fine, do take a seat.",
Richard walked over and sat opposite me.
"So what did you disturb me for you old dog.",
"First of all I must apologize for tricking you David.",
"Tricking me? How?",
"Because I'm not Richard.",
Suddenly, Richard flickered and seemed to distort before finally ending up as a dark haired man of around 30 with a dashingly handsome face, a close trimmed beard and deep brown eyes. If anything he could easily compete with Richard in the looks department
"Who are you?!",
"Ah, sorry about the whole 'Richard' thing. Nice to meet you, I'm Arek Morton. Zach Morton's father. I heard he had entered this school.",
"He did but, why did you look like that?",

"Oh like this?", he said as he turned back into Richard. "Well, I finished making an array which let me do this, this morning. As for Richard well, him and I are old friends and colleagues. I'm sure he wouldn't mind me borrowing his appearance for a while. Ha ha ha!", with that he turned back into himself before turning directly to me.
"Now listen up David. I'd very much like to spar with you if you don't mind?",
"Actually, I have too much paper work left to do anything like that. I don't even know if you're identity is real yet. Let me phone Richard and if everything checks out and you help me finish this damned work, I wouldn't mind giving you a beating.",
"It's all I could have ever hoped for.", Arek said and smiled.
*Beep* *Boop* *Boop* *Beep* *Boop* *Boop*
"Hello, Richard? Yeah, it's me David. Say, do you know anyone by the name of Arek?",

Technically Sentient
Technically Sentient is the uncomfortable answer to the Fermi Paradox: bureaucratic inertia. There's also a shark cop in there too. And a human meat tank and a bunch of greys down on their luck and a viral bioengineered killing machine and a T-posing AI and a cat. But they're not important, in the grand scheme of things.

STEEL ABYSS
A new era is upon Kailsh. Floating above the waves of her endless oceans, the great cityships of humanity are undergoing a revolution. Ancient flotillas and sailing boats, once the lifelines of a dying race, have been transformed into towering metropolises and mighty vessels of steel through the ancient salvage upon the sea floor. It is a time of war. From once disparate tribes are born nations, fighting over the remains of dead gods deep in the abyss. Battleships sail across elysian seas and fighter jets carve trails upon a pale blue sky: a world turning upon itself in the throes of conflict. And one Coalition Warship to save it all: the battleship Archipelago. Crewed by an emergency crew of raw cadets and an artificial mind salvaged from the ruins of ancient civilizations beneath the waves, the Archipelago will face not only the enemies of the Coalition, but of humanity’s very existence on Kailsh. For some secrets are better left undiscovered, and in the embrace of the STEEL ABYSS.
