Other world, other me
In Ro Xu Kou, another Headquarter…
An hour had pass and they finally reach Ro Xu Kou. Bo Yue looks out the window, wondering why they came here instead their main base, He Fei, since it was just few kilometers away from here. He looks down, and see nothing as the surrounding was full of dead plants and highly guarded! He lean on the wall and sign softly as he remember this was the place where he was trained when he was still a cadet.
Once the plane land, he quietly curse himself and order the medic to take Lu Xun to Zhang Jiao. Zhang Jiao, who had been waiting outside since morning, let out an evil smile as his medic push the trolley to him. He inspected the boy and ask them to send him to 'Special' Room. He looks at Bo Yue slightly and went in the building. Bo Yue just stand there, watching Lu Xun being send away. He twitch his face slightly and soon fade as Pang De and Cao Pi came to him. He forcefully salute them, which he curse deep in his heart. Cao Pi looks at him, ask him to follow him to his office as he wants to talk about their deal. Bo Yue's curse silently and follow behind him as he need to makes sure everything was alright (which he also fear that he might done something horrible to the girls).
Along their way to the office, Cao Pi just smile wide as if he just win a prize, which kinda makes Bo Yue had a bad feeling about this. As they reach the office's door, a soldier opens the door, and close it as he was the last person to went in. Cao Pi walks toward his desk, and ask Bo Yue to sit. Bo Yue rejected, and ask him if he was about to keep his promise. Cao Pi close his eyes and stand, facing him with cold eyes. Bo Yue gulp, only wish that he could just let the girls go.
Cao Pi stares at Bo Yue few seconds and laugh out loud. Bo Yue felt weird, asking what was he laughing for. Cao Pi did not answer, instead switch on the computer, revealing the girls in the cell! Bo Yue surprise and yet relief after knowing the girls are alright!
Bo Yue: *sigh* I'm glad they're alright… Wait a minute, why they're still in the cell…? (he looks at Cao Pi) Sir, what is the meaning of this? Aren't they suppose to set free? Why are they still lock in the cell? Let them go!
Cao Pi: (he tried to hold his laugh and face him with icy eye) Well… as you can see, I'm not satisfied yet!
Bo Yue: (his eye wide open, could not believe what he just say!) What the? What do you mean? I've done everything you've told me to, and… you're not…satisfied?
Cao Pi: (this time he could not hold his laughter and laugh out loud as he saw Bo Yue's surprise expression) Ha, Ha, Ha! You know, even though you had a mask on it, but your face! It's just… too funny! Ha ha ha!
Bo Yue: (he readjust his emotion and slam the table, look at him seriously) Cao Pi! Why do you still lock them! Didn't we had the deal? Now that I've give Lu Xun to you guys, why still…!
Cao Pi: (this time, he stop laughing and became serious) Foolish Bo Yue! Do you really think that this deal was on in the beginning? And do you really think that we could just let you go that easily? After all, you're a criminal and for what I know, you're supposed to be executed long time ago…
Bo Yue was furious, wanted to hit him but stop by Pang De and a soldier as they hold him down on the table, and turn both his hand backward! Bo Yue yelp in pain, trying to release himself but could not as they had hold him tighter, and at the same time, Pang De had grab his right hand, ready to broke it anytime soon. Bo Yue still resists and soon feel a sharp pain as Pang De had twist his hand, which he heard a loud crack from his bone! Bo Yue yell in pain and breathe hard as he was in deep pain!
Cao Pi: (he grabs Bo Yue's hair and lifts his head up, looks at his suffering face. Bo Yue could not do a thing but trying to hold his pain! He smiles, started to enjoying this and grab his hair even harder, making Bo Yue cried in pain and beg for mercy. He laughs out loud and slam his head on the table, causing his head bleed!) So, what do you think now? You're nothing but powerless and useless! Do you really think that you had the right to pursue this deal? Don't make me laugh! And how many years had you became HURT? Hm? By now you should know that, in this world, we're not the type of person that could be trusted easily! Didn't you learn that in your lesson boy? So? Do you still want to pursue this deal, or what? (he looks at him with a glare)
Although Bo Yue's could felt his head was in pain and spinning like a top, but he could hear what he say clearly. He deep thought, thinking that he got the point, and regret, regretting that he should not believe them in the first place and just make a huge mistake! He close his eyes and looks at Cao Pi.
Bo Yue: Yes, I was a fool to trust you guys in the first place and I even was a fool to deal with you guys! If you really think that executed me would be the way to solve this problem, then be my guest… after all, I was just a tool…
Cao Pi touches his chin and looks at the window, wondering should he kill him, or continues to use him as a tool? He thought carefully and face Bo Yue, who still hold on the table by Pang De and the soldier. He raises up his hand, ask them to let him go. Bo Yue was curious, but was stand still as Pang De and the soldier pull him up.
Cao Pi: Oh my, what a disgusting word you just say! You sound like… as if I gonna execute you so soon! What a joke! (Bo Yue juts kept silent, he sense there was something was not right) Oh, please, there's no way I gotta kill you, besides, what you did was quite impressing too! Especially how you 'caught' that Monster boy! (Bo Yue clutches his fist, curse in his heart!) But since you're being a good boy by obeying our orders, I could just give you one more chance…
Bo Yue: (his eye wide open, wondering what could it be. But keep out the thought as he knew Cao Pi's personality long time ago) A… a chance?
Cao Pi: Yes… I could give you one more chance. If you could done this right, I'll free you from execution, how do you think of that?
Bo Yue: Hm… what was he up to this time? I know I shouldn't trust him anymore but… if I don't, not only that I'm in trouble but the girls and Lu Xun too… What to do… (he deep thought but interfered by Cao Pi as he know what was he thinking)
Cao Pi: Well, you don't have to worried for now. Until I've figure what to do with you, why don't you go get a rest?
Bo Yue wanted to pursue but pull by Pang De which he had no choice but went out. Just before he opens the door, Cao Pi told him that he had change so much ever since that day, and told him that he should keep up the work just like before as he will always keep an eye on him. Bo Yue twitch his face and went out, not wanted to deal with him anymore.
Bo Yue stomp through the hall way. He was totally humiliated by Cao Pi and this was the first time he was totally set into his trap! He stop aside and slam the wall hard, feeling furious! Pang De came to him and pat his shoulder, but shove by Bo Yue as he was really angry. Pang De looks at him sternly and ask him to follow him, but Bo Yue refuse. Without choices, Pang De grab his right hand tightly and force him to move whether he like it or not. Bo Yue wince in pain and quickly keep up Pang De's footstep as he could felt his hand was going to tore apart!
They reach medic room. Pang De opens the door and push him fort, ask him to sits at the corner while he himself took the first aid kid. Bo Yue obeys and sit, just in case he might harm him again. Pang De open the box and find the medicine. He took out a bottle and dip on the cotton. He lifts up Bo Yue's hair and put it on his head. Bo Yue yelp as the cotton touch the injury. He tried to shove aside but Pang De hold him tighter, continue to clean his wound.
Pang De: Don't move! Or else I can't clean it! (he tried to hold his head as he tried to clean it.) You know, you should behave yourself, do you aware that you just almost got yourself killed? Answer me! (somehow, Bo Yue just kept quiet, not willing to answer) I know it's hard for you to accept this but, surely you knew this would happen too right?
Bo Yue: So… you knew it too? You knew this would happen didn't you? (he stare at him, ask him in danger tone) If you knew this would happen, then why can't you help them? Why? Why must you guys have to do this to me? Aren't this enough? (he lower his head, felt anger)
Pang De: (he listen, but not reply a thing, He felt sorry for him, but what could he do? An order is an order, and he have to obey it or else he'll face the consequences. Finally, he puts down the cotton and replace the new one. He dip the medicine again but this time, he puts on his head and stick on it by using handy plus. Once it's on, he stands, walk to his right side) Listen kid, as far as I know, you're HURT agent, and since you're under me, I don't want my man acted that way! If anything goes wrong, our emotion should put aside and continue on, you learn that from training right?
Bo Yue looks at him, wanted to talk but before he knew it, Pang De had capture his hand and readjust his hand's position, causing another crack from bone. Bo Yue could not hold the pain and yell out loud. He wanted to push Pang De away but Pang De still press on, until he heard another crack. Bo Yue yell out loud and clutches his shoulder tight. Pang De quickly puts on the stick and bandage it. Bo Yue could only breathes hard and hold the pain, hoping this could end quick.
In Luo Yang…
Once they arrive, they told them everything what they know, and slightly anger, especially Zhang He, as he could not stop Lu Xun from the beginning. Once they got the idea, Yuan Shao ask them to follow him to somewhere. They just follow until they reach store room. At first they're wondering why they were brought to such a place! Yuan Shao just smile and ask Zhang He to lock the door as he going to turn on the switch. They look around as the room stated to move. They kept asking the question, but receive none as Yuan Shao and Zhang He just smile.
Once it stop, they notice they had reach the lower ground. They look around in amazement, never thought there was a hidden place. The place was so big that it was fully equip with high tech computers and scanner. And most importantly was, there were several transportation in it, even G-3000 was there! Huang Zhong's eye was as big as a marble, he just saw his beloved! He quickly run down and hug the plane, kissing it! They had a sweat on their head, never expect he would reacted that way!
Yuan Shao let out cough, ask them to follow him again, leaving Huang Zhong behind as he keeps hugging the plane, not willing to let go. They look around while they walk, until they reach a room. It was a conference room, and it was so huge that could fill hundred people in it!
Again, they were amaze by it. It was beautifully designed and there was a logo on it. Yuan Shao ask them to sit whenever they want while he and Zhang He prepare the procedure. They sit as they ask, and look around, wondering why they were invited. Few minutes later, Yuan Shao and Zhang He came back. As they reach the front, Zhang He took out his laptop and insert it to the main computer, reveal a scanner.
Yuan Shao: I know it's weird to ask you guys came to this place. As you can see, we're not the organization that against anything but only protect. Since Lu Xun was capture and Cao Ren are missing, it was our duty to find them back and further more, we'll have lots of things to do… (Zhang He enlarge the map, reveal some mark on it) As you can see, this is the report you just mention and we just reanalyze the whole situation and it was bad! You see these mark, the monster you mention just now had just destroy some of the villages. Plus, the rock that falling from the sky, most of the north side had destroy. Of course we could not miss out Lu Bu. According to our scout, he's still in there, but, for some reason, we can't get near to him as it was full of monster and there was a strange in it, so right now, we can't give you any proper info about it! Besides, we have bigger thing to worry about, look at this! (Zhang He show another scene, this time, it shows a huge meteor, and it was coming to them! Most of them were surprise, only could look at the screen) As you can see, this was just the surface, but if we enlarge it even more… (they just startle, there was something in the meteor and it was a monster!)
Gan Ning: What the heck is that thing?
Ling Tong: Yeah… It's…getting ridiculous!
Zhang He: We still not sure for now, but for what we know, this meteor would only land within a month!
Huang Gai: In other word, we still have 30 days to go…
Zhang He: Yes, if that thing came, we're doom!
Yuan Shao: That is why, if you would willing to help us, we're glad to accept you sincerity…
Xu Huang: Hold on a sec! Why you told us everything about this, because you want us to join you guys? Don't you think you ask too much? And what's makes you think that we could stop these? Just in case you're not aware, we're just human! Plus, how the heck I know you guys had something to do with Cao Company? (he enrage all of the sudden, which kinda startle his friends. As he cool down, he was wondering why he was anger all of the sudden, which he don't understand about himself either)
Yuan Shao: I know I had asking too much but… we just hope that you could help us as we're all in danger. As you just see from the screen, disaster happens everywhere. If we stuck here, doing nothing, we're as good as dead! Of course I can't say we had nothing to do with Cao Company, after all, we did sign contract before…
Ma Chao: Huh? What kind of contract is that?
Yuan Shao: Actually, is a deal. You see, it happen after that war, when we gain peace, lot of people wondering which land should they had. Back then Cao Cao just got his position and conquer half of the land, which the other half was belong to Monster clan. Since Cao Cao had half of the land, most of the power goes to him! So I wasn't satisfied with it and decided fights against him! I've gather the Hunters all the around the world, and fights him...
Gan Ning: What? Not again… I wonder how you guys live back then?
Yuan Shao: Oh shut it, I haven't finish yet! Yes, we fight, but only a while! He came to me later on, and negotiate about it! So, in the end, I got this land and he got his… (he show them the map and point which one was who's)
Xu Huang: Wait! Would that mean this whole land was yours? (Yuan Shao nod) Then would that mean this land would be yours forever?
Yuan Shao: Of course it is! As long as I'm still alive, this land would be mine…
Ma Chao: But… what would happen if you died? What would happen to this land?
Zhang He: Don't worry. I could assure you, this land would stay forever, even if the owner dies.
Xu Huang: But wait! Most of this area… Aren't these their land? If we went in, wouldn't that be considered crossing over it?
Zhang He: Well, if we have to! Of course, if they did took something from us, we'll take it back no matter what? I wouldn't care those rules anymore…
Yuan Shao: Yes, which is why we hope we could safe him…
Ma Chao: Him? Who him?
Zhang He: Who else? Lu Xun! Of course Cao Ren too… although I don't really like him!
Huang Gai: If you gonna safe him, then count me out! I don't want to safe that Monster…
Zhang He: Why? Was it because he was a Monster, you don't even care to safe him? Even though he's just a kid?
Huang Gai: Of course I won't! Those Monster are not worth to safe at all! He should just died!
Yuan Shao: Hm… I don't know what's makes you think he was that worthless, but for what I know, since he was one of us, then we're going to look for him, that's what I think! (Huang Gai cross his hand with anger, not looking at them)
Gan Ning: But, where would you look for him? This world was so big and how the heck we know he was there? And since when did he became one of you…hey!
Xu Huang: Plus, we also need to find where Cao Ren are…
Ma Chao: And, this whole world thing!
Yuan Shao: Hm… how about this, you guys get some rest first since it's already mid-night. So why not we wait this until tomorrow, I would like to double check the info…
Zhang He: Beside, we also want you to reconsider about this, especially that friend of yours… (they look at Huang Gai, who're still anger) He doesn't seem want to help…
Ling Tong: Come on Huang Gai, those are past! So forget already!
Huang Gai: Hm! I still think that kid was worthless to be safe! Besides, even if we did wanted to safe him, we will confront Jiang Wei right? (they kept quiet, he got the point. If they rescue Lu Xun, that's mean they would confront Jiang Wei too…)
They curse silently, hoping could teach Jiang Wei a lesson. Zhang He and Yuan Shao sense the atmosphere getting tense, and ask them to get a rest as they need to continue to discuss this issue tomorrow.
As they went out from the room, Huang Zhong still hugging the plane! They hit their head in disbelieve, trying to separate him from the plane!
In Ro Xu Kou…
Bo Yue walks down the hall way and let out a sign of relief as he just manage to get away from boring meeting which it was a 6 hours meeting long, basically talking about the world being threaten and how to deal with it, plus he also confront his former comrade, which most of them keep asking of why he was back to duty instead as criminal, etc. He yawn quietly, head to his room. As he pass through a large window, he looks slightly at it and surprise! Lu Xun was in there, asleep in half naked, full of wire around him.
In the room, the scientists walk around non-stop, and exchange their paper to each other. One of the scientist went near to Lu Xun and examine him. He looks at the scanner and jolt it down, quickly report to Zhang Jiao, who're now standing beside Lu Xun. He smiles slightly, and shoo him away. The scientist just went off, without asking. Zhang Jiao walks toward Lu Xun, and bend his body for closer looks. He looks at him amusingly and touches his face with his icy finger. He laughs and leave the room, leaving his man to finish his job.
Bo Yue quickly run to the other side, hoping he could went in the room in time. As he turn around the corner, he saw someone standing in front of him. Deng Ai… he murmur, never expect he would be here. Deng Ai looks at him deadly, ready to take out his weapon. "Bo Yue! Prepare yourself for I'm going to destroy you! For killing Vice Prime Minister!" Bo Yue curse, took out his weapon, ready to defense but only invite more trouble. Guan Ping, who also walk the same path, saw them in the middle of the way and involve himself, wanted to fight Bo Yue. Bo Yue looks at them in trouble, wondering how to settle this as he was about to confront two members of HURT!
As Deng Ai was about to make his first move, Guan Ping came in and strike Bo Yue with his first move! Deng Ai was furious and shift Guan Ping aside, causing him fall aside. Deng Ai strike his first move, manage to attack Bo Yue, but as he going to attack him again, Guan Ping's sword came in, causing Deng Ai's spear flung in the air.
Deng Ai was furious and glare at Guan Ping, asking him to stay away! Guan Ping ignore, insists to fights Bo Yue. Soon, the fight between Bo Yue, Deng Ai and Guan Ping was over as Deng Ai and Guan Ping started to argue each other as they wanted to fight him. Bo Yue shook his head and quietly sneak out while they did not pay attention on him.
Once he turn around the corner, he quickly head to the room and open it. To his disappointment, none of them in the room! Without hesitation, he went out of the room and run down the hall, search for them. As he run, he saw a scientist came out from the room. Bo Yue went fort and ask the scientist about Lu Xun's whereabouts. The scientist was slightly surprise as he did not receive any order about someone would come and was told not to let anyone in except Zhang Jiao. He tried to shoo Bo Yue as he knew he was not on the list, but Bo Yue not giving up and gives him several reasons about meeting the kid. But the scientist still insists not letting him in and started to argue!
Just then, one of his mate came. He immediately recognize Bo Yue as he meet him at Bei Ping. His mate looks at him and ask him to let him in as he was the one who capture the kid. At first the scientist resist as he was told not to let anyone in, but his mate beg him and told him that he'll responsible on it. The scientist finally agree, and told Bo Yue that he only had 2 minutes see him since they're not permitted to do so.
Without wasting time, Bo Yue and the scientist went in the room while the his mate stay outside the room, guarding, just in case their someone pass by. Bo Yue saw Lu Xun on the bed and went fort. He looks at him solemnly and regret, blaming himself for dragging him in this situation. The scientist keep an eye on him and ask him not to touch a thing, fearing he might done something on their subject. Bo Yue understood, not blaming him. He could just only watch Lu Xun sleeping like a dead people! As he looks at him from head to toe, he felt like wanted to turn up. He bites his lip, tried to hold the uncomforted.
As the time had end, the scientist ask Bo Yue went out immediately. Bo Yue obey, and quicken his pace to the wash room. He opens the door rough and knelt beside the toilet bowl, turn up. Once he felt alright, he wipes off his mouth and lay down, try to get some air. He shut his eyes and cried, as he remember what he just saw. Every single part of Lu Xun's body was full of injury and scars and it was not only one scar nor a cut, but there're lots of them and different sign of it (which looks more like being cane, and wipe hideously)! Although he knew that not all of it was cause by scientists' cruelty, but most of the scar was caused by past and he just aware that Lu Xun had went through these horrible experience during his childhood, and now he was going to face the same thing again! He curse himself even more, and cried silently, blaming himself for being useless.
In Luo Yang…
They could not sleep at all as lots of things just happen in one blink. Most of them just stay awake, wondering what to do as there're lots things for them to think! Gan Ning, same as always, not the type of person that think much. He slam himself on the bed, hoping could get some sleep, but soon wake up again. Ling Tong, Ma Chao and Xu Huang sit together in a corner, thinking of the plan in future. As for Huang Gai, he sit's the other corner, curse everything! Wei Yan stares at the ceiling, thinking about Jiang Wei as he still believe that he was not that type of person. As for Huang Zhong, he was not in the room. He was literally at lower ground, admiring his 'baby'!
Gan Ning: Argh! (he stands and look at them) I don't know what to do anymore! First, Lu Xun was a Monster, then Jiang Wei betray us and capture Lu Xun, and then, Cao Ren was injured and disappear for no reason, then the whole world in disaster, and now, Yuan Shao ask us to join them…!
Ling Tong: Correction, he ask us to reconsidered, not join them…
Gan Ning: Nah, it's the same thing!
Ling Tong: Of course it's not idiot! Reconsidered mean you rethink again and give them answer, whether you like it or not, while join them was…well you join them!
Gan Ning: Sheesh, I still think it's the same in the end…
Ma Chao: So, what to do? Should we join or …
Xu Huang: I think not! If we join, we'll have to listen to them, and there'll be no way we could do this on our own!
Gan Ning: Well, why can't we just ask him about that? I don't see he was the same type person as we knew…
Xu Huang: That's easy for you to say. What if he's not allow and insists to ask us to join!
Ma Chao: You know, it may sound funny but… I kinda with Gan Ning, we could ask…
Xu Huang: *sigh* you guys just thinking about the surface! Think of this, if they really had enough men to do it, why ask us?
Ling Tong: He's right, although he did say reconsider, but I'm not really buy that…
Gan Ning: Then, what to do? We can't just sit here? We gotta think of a way to save them… well beside Jiang Wei, that traitor…
Wei Yan: Me…think…he's not…that…bad…
Gan Ning: Hello, earth to mask guy! He reveal himself in front of us AND betray us! Beside, he took Lu Xun with him! That sicko! (both he and Wei Yan glare at each other, started argue about this)
Huang Gai: (he stands, head to the door) Hm! Count me out! I don't want to had a thing to do with this! Beside if we really did meet them, do you think we gonna make it? I know we could oppose those Cao scum but, I just don't want to safe that Monster…
Ling Tong: You know, he is normal, just like us… Why can't you just think that way…
Huang Gai: Heck! Not in million years! If you wanna fight Jiang Wei, I might join, but safe that Monster brat, no way!
They wanted to say something back at him, but was interfere by someone as he told them to meet Yuan Shao. They look at each other and shrug, went off to see Yuan Shao and hoping they could give him the answer.
