Achlys glanced around every corner. She was amazed to see that so many cartridge holders and hybrids slipped out of her grasp back at PISTOL. Still, her mission wasn’t focused on them anymore. She did what she could in that department.24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtZC9sdqmGD
There was only one choice left. To destroy the world.24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO21xNPgMUD
If she could manage keeping her allies safe, they might be able to bring back humanity while remaining off Kronos’ radar. Still, there were no guarantees. World destruction was a tricky situation. If Abyss and the others stayed at the hotel, they might hold out long enough to move them somewhere underground.24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3owgZcqG0w
Achlys shook the sentimental thoughts away. She had to focus. There was too much at risk to be distracted. She had to get Helios’ power no matter the cost.24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFqDcYtCMPa
Achlys quickly slipped behind a dumpster and peaked around it cautiously. Was that a rosork? No, this has got to be too soon. Is this our fault?24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGLzgxThQO9
That’s when it dawned on her.24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgkdls7jfjy
They released Kronos’s army when they destroyed PISTOL. They’d unwittingly moved Kronos ages ahead in his process.24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbnOoU3Isp0
She had to move faster if she wanted a chance to so much as stall Kronos’ plans.24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjeszRgicCj
Project: Disaster is in full swing starting with this mission, but am I too late?24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGXrDHhSxXZ
Achlys felt the weight of the world on her shoulders as she carefully navigated, he way to the Palace. No more detours, no more taking your time. Get it together Achlys or Kronos will be able to drain the life of every planet in the Milky Way like chocolate cow juice. Khaos, I sound like a child.24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGiSYNUJZfU
Achlys was back to the hotel in 11 days. The guards, Rosork, and rampant power wielders gave Achlys more trouble than she expected. She had dragged the queen through the sewers, which proved to be a more difficult task than Achlys had hoped.24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWEgbcJwMcp
In Ember’s desperate attempts to escape, she released a flurry of flames. Most of Achlys’ own abilities would either blow up in her face or be negated by the flashes of light Ember’s fire triggered. This is what I get for taking a nap before mission complete.24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLj3fXoXKdZ
Achlys’ laughing gas had worn off before she woke up. That’s what a week of no sleep will do to you. Nodding off at the most inconvenient times. Achlys was lucky only a portion of her hair was singed. If it weren’t for the cuffs Achlys stole from the dungeon guards, Ember could have been finished with Achlys and made an escape.24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdJzHFYVnU8
If only the queen understood that her kidnappinh and the destruction of the world was for the betterment of many.24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaClGC0jB93

Despite Achlys’ best efforts to hurry back, she was too slow. Achlys surfaced, but she left the queen bound in the sewers.24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPU3Fe4pV2k
The hotel appeared normal at first, but once Achlys got to the suite, everything was wrecked.24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkLDPQ3ItFJ
A handful of hotel workers were cleaning the lobby when Achlys arrived. They stared at her in surprise and terror.24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5yhEKXglrG
“It’s her!” One of them whispered loudly. “Do any of you have Commander H’s card?”24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwEGNMTNg7H
Someone else fumbled with a slip of paper. Achlys rushed towards them and snatched the card, stuffing it into her pocket.24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrrdZivFDcF
“You’re lucky I don’t snap your neck. I’m not here for trouble. What happened to the others?24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0lxpENiFwH
“P-P-PISTOL came,” the scrawny man stammered. “They said they would leave peacefully if we turned over the people renting the residential suite. We had no choice! They came with dozens of soldiers!”24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmGjQBHaiyZ
“Excuses from weaklings!” Achlys exclaimed.24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJg0o4CVmgj
Nobody was killed,” one of them spoke up in defense. “A man and his son were taken.”24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwqfAkXV0WU
Son? What in Kronos’ name? Achlys paused in confusion.24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzKe7btUGUU
...Do they mean Corder and Antonio? That might mean...24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡASZKmvHwfd
Achlys turned and snapped at the other workers. “All of you, out, now!”24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZCRLktQsJu
The man she was talking to tried to hurry out, but Achlys grabbed him by his shirt collar. The man yelped.24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAYLmxae9m9
“Not you. I still have questions. How long ago was this?”24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDnZHSMfJ7Q
“This morning,” he blurted out.24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfd1auEtSjL
“Did PISTOL say where they were going?”24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoIaPyBkyTA
“N-no, but there’s a new rebel base a little way south. I-I-I wouldn’t go there though! It’s in the middle of-of a warzone!”24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIzn4zwfeoY
Achlys let out a frustrated growl and shoved the man into the elevator just before it closed.24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQvSvkNp63L

“It's safe! The rest of you come out if you’re still here!”24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbgkg6vHVYj
It took a moment, but slowly Lucy came out from a large bush that certainly wasn’t so full before.24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvIlE7h99Ke
Water flowed overhead as a pitcher emptied as if gravity reversed. A cup followed suit, and water came through the crack beneath the bathroom door. The water reformed into Vivian.24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN31AouGDDU
Achlys waited another beat which turned into 5 minutes of silence. She glared at Vivian. “Where is Abyss?” Her tone was steady and laced with poison.24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYYVGXHhaFA
“He left days ago,” Lucy answered.24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUvwBSntruc
“What?! Where did he go?!” Achlys stepped menacingly toward Lucy. The older girl was in a panicked outrage. He can’t be gone. Anyone but Abyss.24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPWskNntOzk
“He never said. We tried to stop him. He was in a hurry,” Vivian answered quickly to redirect Achlys’ attention from Lucy.24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlDPI4W6moT
“We need to find him,” Achlys said firmly. “He’s the only thing that matters now... He’s essential to the plan!”
