I kept manoeuvring through the ocean through and through but there was nothing in sight, hell not even a single fish ether which I found kind of odd at this point because for a thousand year should at least affect the aquatic environment around here.
Zoe:" I know right?...weird" she responded of what it was on my mind with the same thought.
Are they dead?
hmm.
I kept going and going and still couldn't find anything which I find very confusing.
odd.
Then all of the sudden the light began to slowly fade before I looked up an-jack&Zoe:"WHAT. THE. FUCK?!" we both shouted in surprise while also in shock as we saw the foundation was acutely flouting?!
Jack:"WHAT IS GONG ON!? HOW IN THE HELL IS IT ACTUALLY FLOUTING!?" I shouted in surprise.
Zoe:"I DON'T KNOW WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON ETHER! THIS IS FUCKING INSANE!" she also shouted in surprise as we both try racking around with both organic and digital brains around it.
Before then I saw some...thing...ssss?...I honestly don't know... there are light's of all sorts underneath it and we can't make it out.
though it is kind of ominous.
Then I make my way underneath the foundation as the thing's we saw become clear, we now see...a...weird ton of multiple ball's holding the foundation all together.
jack:" what...is this?...i don't remember that we had any of this stuff" I said while approaching one of the weird ball's as it looked like big metal bull of size of basketball but slightly bigger as in the middle of it has a continuous purple and cyan light moving to the left in a circular motion on loop...zoe then begin to scan it.
Zoe:'' scans indicate that this flotation ball device is able to hold the foundation but with the aid of multiple supports of said device, as for the origins of the device is quite unknown as it is not part of the archive's we have. My theory however is that has-jack:"something to do with the ones who break into the facility" she informed in detail before I finished her sentence.
Zoe:"bingo! You got it!"she praised as I looked at the device.
jack:"do you think if we can bring one of these with us to examine it and see if we can use it?" I offered an idea.
Zoe:" I say why not but as long as it doesn't hinder the balance of the foundation" she alarmed at their possibility of things going south.
I took a deep breath before I let my hands on one of the device's as I tried to be careful and gently take one off, my hands on the device as I gently but surely took one off as it felt it was kind of magnetic that I can't even budge it.
Jack:"ahhh! I can't take it off!" I granted as I took my hands of it.
zoe:"oh hey look!... there's a button underneath the device!" she informed as I looked underneath it and found it as the button looked very small yet still big enough for me to see as it has a red light as it blinked slowly before lighting back up slowly...and...it looked like it also had that small octopus logo again...but...this one has a green sclera and purple eyes.
same one with the black duck tape.
but that one had a normal white sclera and small black but cute pupil eye, it made me feel safe.
this one however made feel.
that i should be worried
zoe:"I don't like it either" she responded to what I was thinking and I couldn't agree more.
jack:"it's seems like these unique individuals have some sort of connection with the hole octopus concept...we...should keep our head's up for these once and these people, I have a feeling that they ventured more then just the facility which is obvious of course but...wouldn't hurt to stay alert right?" I said with concern as I pressed the button that made the light disappear along with the other light'sand the device immediately fell right on my hand's.
heh.
it's not heavy.
makes that job easier for me.
I looked back on the foundation and nothing has changed.
good.
I took the device with me as I ascended back on the surface.
however.
upon my ascension.
I saw something in the distance that I really didn't expect to see, as my mind was so distraught and shocked at the same time.
I see.
the bunker.
but underneath in the aquatic zone.
it looks destroyed with all the details as the glass screen implied, I also see some sort of big ball of electricity surrounding something that I can't make it out of how far I am.
however.
the moment that I looked at.
I felt afraid.
my body began to freeze as I trembled in fear as the memories began flooding in, I cupped one hand on the gas mask as if I'm holding my mouth as I felt like vomiting as my vision began to blur.
zoe:"JACK!"she shouted as she snapped me out of my mind.
jack:"I AM NOT GOING BACK IN THERE!" I shouted aggressively as I activated the thruster's and boosted myself out of here.
I grip hold on the device as I try to escape back on land.
momentarily.
I saw the city being dangled.
as it looked like a black carpet floor.
(few seconds later)
i was finally back on the surface and landed on the beach shore as I quickly put the device inside the bag before closing it, and I gently put the bag down and removed my hoodie while turning around and flopped on the ground as I felt the beach sand on my back with the bag next to me on the left and opened up the visor to catch my breath for both mind and body as i put one hand over my eye's.
before then...I felt grudge and hatred towards the bunker yet again as I grit my teeth with full rage and flinched my other hand.
zoe:"...jack?"
jack:"..."
zoe:" I know it's not your fault for what happened 12.000 years ago" she said sincerely as I only sighed with frustration.
jack:"...'sigh'..."
zoe:``You wouldn't know they would do this to you and you know it!"
jack:"..."
zoe:" jack...you had every right to-"jack:" SHUT UP!" I shouted at her, causing her to stop talking as I began to weep as the tears began to fall across two side's on my face.
jack:" IT'S SO UNFAIR!...'sop'...WHY WOULD THY DO THIS TO US!?...'sop'...WHY WOULD THY DO THIS TO ME!?...'hic'...'i punch the ground with my left hand causes a small ground rumble'...WHY NOBODY EVER LISTENED WHEN WE AND I TOLD THEME THAT IT WAS A HORRIBLE IDEA TO BEGIN WITH!?...'more sopping'...I DON'T GET IT!...'i punch the ground even harder with more ramble and audible rumbling sound'...I DON'T UNDERSTAND!...'hard sopping'...I DON'T- UNDERTASTAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand" I screamed and cried to the heavens above...hoping to make since to what happened to me and the rest in12.000 years ago as I continued shopping.
Zoe:"i...don't know jack...i really don't know... even with the half of the knowledge we have and the massive digital brain which I have...and still nothing makes sense to me...even of what happened back then...as for me the only thing I know and feel right now, is sadness, kindness, love and care...I've been observing all those time's for as so long as I can remember, and I still don't understand as much as you do...i know that I love you...and I love you for real. that's not something that should ever uphold in my programming...but i really do...especially those time's when I kept teasing you...I've been watching you along with simon and Judd...and believe it or not yesterday was actually the first day that I was actually able talked to you...i was in development at the time and wasn't able to talk...only text messages...i was authorised to look around the facility as a first testing ground and report back to Jason ward the security guard, my actual creator is prof. Lee Higgs...he tasked me to watch everything before giving my actual assignment...and I saw you. everything you try to accomplish and the thing's you try to do to keep your family alive and will...and I can't help but really encourage you to keep going...but...after what happened back then...you didn't deserve it...NONE OF ALL YOU DESERVE IT...AND SURE AS HELL I!...DIDN'T DESERVE IT!"she revels before shouting as I was shocked by the amount of information she revealed that left me speechless as i begin to calm down.
I sighed before I started to laugh.
zoe:" what's so funny~?"she teased as I continued laughing.
jack:"i fucking know it~" I teased back.
Zoe:" know what?" she asked.
jack:" you did have something to hide after all" I responded with a smile.
Zoe:'' oh shut up you~ all girl's have to keep their secrets hehehehehe~" she said playfully.
Jack:"HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!...no I'm going to say bullshit on this one~, consider my past relations with other women. I will not say this is completely true...anymore" I said as she laughed.
After that we exchanged more conversation's to get to know each other on a personal level, we spent hours talking and sharing to each other. That time itself just flew by without even noticing. as the time right now is 12:00pm, now entering afternoon. Then Zoe shared something interesting.
Zoe:...'sighed happily'...so~...wanna go back to hellven city~?" she playfully said.
Jack:"hellven city...man...i wonder what happened to my old apartment...we should properly go back and check it out along with the city and see if there are things we can use, things I could sell and away off the island. True the suite can dive and dash through the ocean with no problem, the buttery though is the problem. Despite that I'm using an un-updated model...it's still a prototype, So we need to find something or a sea vehicle of some sort that will allow us to stay in the ocean for longer with everything we selvedge along the way so" i planned with a hint of greed.
Zoe:"aren't you a bit greedy too greedy with thing's to sell?" she questioned in a happy tune.
jack:'' hay! if shit can still make profit after a VERY long time, I don't see why I wouldn't sell shit for moolah ok!" I said with a greedy smile on my face as Zoe began to laugh as my greedy nature began to crawl back after so long.
Zoe:" will then~...I won't stop you~...because I too want some shit for myself too~"she said playfully as I chuckled while standing up before I grabbed the bag and put it back to my shoulder and put the hoodie and visor back on.
Jack:" I think it's time to take what's mine!"i said to myself before I walked up to the beach and walked my way to the ruined city.
(a few walks later).
I then came to a Holt as I'm now in front of the big torn up sign that is still somehow intact, then I stared back at the entrance of the big sign to the destruction of the city.
Then I looked back to the sign.
it says.
{WELCOME TO HELLVEN CITY}
