Salamat sa pagbasa (Thanks for reading in Filipino)-NightRaker
So my childhood friend is actually a guardian angel who can turn in to a diamond sword…
"What the hell, Kind of development is this?" I thought to myself as the iron elevator rose up sl owly
"Steve, don't think much about it or else you're going to fry that small brain of yours."
Ell said sternly as she was playing with Cupa who's mouth was watering as we headed for the cafeteria room. But she was right she was still the Ell I knew, the Ell who was always aggressive-even tough she was suppose to be my guardian angel. The Ell who always cooked for me and locked me in a headlock if I didn't finish it, The Ell who-Wait…
"Did you just read my mind?" I asked, as I pointed my index finger at her
"Don't be ridiculous, I can only do that when I'm in my guardian form-you're just very easy to read."
Ell said as she smiled at me with a playful look that hid her hazel eyes
"Yeah, Stevie is kind of easy to read!" Cupa said as she examined me with a grin
Did she just honestly call me Stevie…
"Oh, now I know what Steve is thinking now-He's thinking…" Cupa put both of her hands to her temples trying to concentrate as she murmured under her breath
"Now, He's thinking that It's weird that I called him Stevie!" Cupa said victoriously
Wait, She was actually right-how?
"I was right, wasn't I? Victory my name is Cupa!" She started praising herself as she looked proud of her work while she literally patted her own back
"See?" Ell said as she looked at me with an amused look
This was really making me uncomfortable, but yet it was peaceful. I looked at both of them-who were talking while giving short glances at my direction and then giggling. Those two weren't human-but then again I'm not as well it's times like this where I remember what the professor told me…
-The Conversation-
"Professor, What is this-What happened to me?" I asked while panicking as I continued to be shocked at my body that was made of white light
"Now, An energy form is a form of pure, concentrated energy-if it wasn't obvious enough. This form is "You're in your energy form, an energy form is the-oh wait let's make this easier." He said as he summoned a hole on the floor of the white room that made a hologram of a white figure just like mine
what A ranking individuals have, this form isn't just for show, it's basically the best gift you will ever have, but you'll learn that later-by yourself"
He lectured me as he gestured at the model-that like his body was holographic
"By myself?" I asked him with a confus-oh wait I can't make a confused look now, can I?
"This world is very huge even bigger than you're dimension's sun but we only have restrictions in the area within this dome." He said as he changed the model to an area that was covered with a large dome
"Within this area, creatures who are gifted with abilities are taken care of. If an individual has this gift we will provide them with food, shelter, education and whatever they please, but –they have to participate in our challenges whether it's tests or quests-hey that rhymes. anyways, they either have to let us research they're abilities or use their abilities to aid us whether it's for defensive purposes or offensive purposes speaking of which-let's talk about it now." he changed the model into a chart that looked like it was made for tournaments
"This is a ranking system, this system allows us to know which is the most useful "gifted individuals" that we have acquired data from-let's start with the weakest shall we." The hologram changed into a group of people who were wearing lab coats as he zoomed in to a group of scientists by the right
" these types of scientists has the ability known as "knowing" but is useless without-" He stopped his sentence as he brought out another group of scientists and cropped it to the picture
"Now, these types of scientists has the ability known as "building" both of them need each other and here's why. The "knowing" scientists has the ability to know whether what an object is made of or what parts are needed-here's the catch "knowing" scientists has this gift but they can't create it-try as they may the materials here won't do their classes any good it's because they're purpose is to know not to build and here we have the "building" scientists, they're gifts are opposite to the "knowing" scientists- they can produce materials out of nowhere and build a house in a minute but they can't do it without knowledge that will be provided by the "knowing" scientists. Now, read that back to me." He sat back on his white plastic stool as he looked at me with eyes that looked like a teacher too overconfident of a stupid pupils answer
"So what you're saying is "knowing" scientists know what to do but they can't build because of the foreign materials that doesn't suit they're place and "building" scientists can do it but they don't know how to." I said as his face clearly changed to an astonished look-that showed him
"You catch on quickly." He said as he picked himself from the white plastic chair and began changing the hologram
"Wait, so if you are either a person with the "knowing" and the "building" gift would you automatically go to the research department?" I asked
"Not necessarily but it is recommended, but we give the gifted a choice, and here's the outcome." The professor changed the model yet again this time showing a monster that looked similar to a dragon with black scales about to feast on a group of people
"You see, we give everyone a choice-but it's up to them how they help us and these group of gifted people decided to rebel and try to fought a lvl 2 monster, basically-it didn't end well." He said as he studied the hologram with his right hand lifting up his chin
"Ouch…" I said with remorse
"I know, Now let me show you our creations." He said as he switched from one doo-hikee to another, as he continued to switched from invention to invention a glimpse of something familiar caught my eye
"Wait!" I said as I raised myself from the white plastic chair to halt his advances
"Oh, you're talking about our agents-you know like that one who escorted you here. They are one of our most useful creations they're basically how we became so influential- we try to teach them other things but they don't seem to catch on I remember some of them can't even remember the name of this world-anyway let's continue." He said as he snapped his fingers and made the hologram vanish
I was surprise that bald guy-I mean agent Thompson turned out to be just an invention, I know he seemed cold at first not showing any emotion but If I remember correctly from our car ride here he can produce emotion even though he was just a simple invention
"Now let's talk about partners, partners are two gifted individuals that benefit from one another just as a "knowing" individual to a "building" individual to a more complicated relationship like an "imaginarium" to a "guardian" they all fall into the same category, and that is to help one another."
"Wait, didn't you call me and imaginarium dreamer or something like that-then what's a guardian?" I asked
"A guardian angel-for your earth standards, don't worry you'll find out soon enough, now let's continue…
-Flashback End-
"Steve, Stop your eternal monologue and get out of the freaking elevator!" Ell's voiced snapped me out of my thoughts as the elevator door stood open as both a smiling Cupa and Ell were waiting for me on the other side
"Oh, I'm coming!" I said as I rushed out from the elevator-continuing my adventure
