《Rise of the Henchman》Chapter 30: It Just Can't Be Easy
Advertisement
After the prep, I broke into prison and made my way to the designated location. It turned out to be Lust’s cell. On the wall is a full body restraint that is bolted to the wall. It appears that he wouldn’t even be able to move a finger with those restraints. As per the plan, I proceeded to remove a false brick and pull out a dense metal box. When I lifted it up it felt very heavy. I then escaped the prison with no issue.
With the completion of the mission Jason proceeded to drive us away. We are on a mountain side road when the car shakes furiously and we go off the road. Thankfully we landed on some trees that held us up in midair.
“Ash, get out of the car and brace for battle!”
I placed my goggles on and scaled the tree down to the ground. What greeted us is a dead-eye teen. He is on the slender side with long hair that covers his face. Then without warning he dashes at Jason. Jason proceeds to perform a sidestep and swept his legs from under him. Jason then threw a punch at the guy's head but he slipt into the ground and came up behind me. I jumped to the side at which Jason threw a round object which electrified the air.
With the assailant immobilized I set my goggles to infrared and scanned the area. I saw five people. Then I heard a gunshot, and turned to see Jason with a handgun and the assailant with a hole in the head.
“We have to hurry. We are going to a cave nearby during which you will contact HQ and I will keep tabs on the others.”
With that we run.

The God Complex
Alon wishes to be remembered—to stamp his existence on this cruel world, to engrave the fact that "he was here" into the very Earth. This is his sole purpose; To be important. For what greater reason is there to exist if not to be remembered? People are special. People aren’t... Your actions in this life define how those left behind remember you. Once you die, you’re reborn and live on, if only for a time; The grander the actions in this life, the longer your second one becomes. Alon knows this better than anyone, and he will live in the minds and hearts of everyone in Krestelen longer than anyone that has come before. Krestelen is a place long forgotten by those outside its walls; known by most as the Cursed City of The Dead, with the Lower Tier of the City being abandoned by the Upper Tiers after an inexplicable Fog blanketed the entire sector thirty-four years ago. This Fog adds those unfortunate enough to be caught within it into the legions of Vacant roaming the empty streets of the city: A creature that has seemingly lost all reasoning and sanity, to wander around the streets crying into the palms of their hands as they beg for help, to be freed from their condition. This is the place that Alon, and the Gang led by his mentor Casian, shall steal the very source of what gives those in power—the rightfully ruling family, the Deramore's—their ability to live in luxury as those below in the Lower Tier struggles to survive. They will forever be cast into the annals of the history of this cursed place—for better, or for worse.
