Synopsis

Set nearly twenty years after the "Island of the Haunted" movie. Everyone at the Center knows about Jarod while only a handful knew that his name was specifically mentioned in the Center's scrolls as the "chosen one". The thing is... Jarod wasn't the only one mentioned. There was another Pretender mentioned who would come down the road. A girl named Dana. Like Jarod, she was taken from her family at an early age. But there's a difference between Dana and Jarod's abductions. Dana had an idedic (photographic) memory. Though she only remembered what her parents looked like when she was a child. They told her she was from Miami, but she distinctly remembers snow on the ground and the air being frigid as it was winter time when she was taken. A weather condition that's not entirely possible in the southern climate. --------------------------------------------------------------------- There are Pretenders among us. Geniuses with the ability to become anyone they want to be. In nineteen sixty-three, a corporation known as the Center isolated young Pretenders, exploiting their genius for research. But their Pretender ran away... While still trying to locate and recapture their Pretender, the Center moved on to another piece of the prophecy, and found another pretender in a young girl named Dana. "That's not where your home is," Jarod replied. "What do you mean?" "They told you that you were from there so that, if you ever got out, you'd go to the wrong city and state. Makes it easier to capture you." "That's an interesting theory, Jarod. There’s just one thing. They told me I was from Miami, but I’m not. I never had a home.”

Prologue Time travel, often used in sci-fi and fantasy novels and movies. I dare to say, that at some point of our life everyone wished to have a time machine or power to go back in time, and not enter this supposed bet you had with one of your friends. We all make mistakes, sometimes we regret them, sometimes we just get on with our lives. But is time travel actually possible? According to Albert Einstein's General relativity theory it is possible… all you need to do is to travel faster than the speed of light, to simplify the matter. Objects in motion experience time differently than the ones observing it. However, Einstein also proved that the speed of light is impossible for normal objects. E=mc², according to this equation, mass and energy are the same physical entity and can be changed into each other. Because of this equivalence, the energy an object has due to its motion will increase its mass. In other words, the faster an object moves, the heavier it is. If an object tries to travel 300,000 km per second, its mass becomes infinite, and so does the energy required to move it. Another method would involve some huge mass, such as a star or a black hole. Again Einstein's theory tells that huge mass bends space-time continuum, so we could 'jump' from one place to another in no time at all. Unfortunately those methods would possibly work for advancing time not reversing it, but if you don't like the world of today, maybe the world of the future will be to your liking? However what about other universes and dimensions? Open a wormhole and jump into it. According to some, there is an infinite number of universes, with new ones being 'born' every second. Each action you make may be different from the action you make in a different universe, in one you stay up all night playing games and fail exams the next day. In a different one you study and pass. Or even another one where you study so hard that makes you sick and… you still fail the exam because you couldn't attend due to severe sickness. There is an infinite number of possibilities, for each possibility has its own universe. What if we could travel to different universes? Of course only those where You don't exist, to make our lives easier. How about we find a universe where humans don't exist at all, a world of our own. Armed with all human kinds knowledge, both the good and bad ones, lessons from history, and philosophy. Would you try to recreate the same or try to make a new one? A world where all people are equal? A world where you are the ruler? Or a world where you are the only person? Again the number of possibilities and outcomes are endless and if you made a mistake and didn't get what you wanted, you can always jump to a new universe and start all over again… How long would it take before you'll get bored? This is a story about a man who did just that.

Knights

William ready his damaged sword and shield as they witness the most awesome, no, the most frightening scene in the history of his knighthood life. The crimson sky started releasing blue lightning in the whole vicinity. The ground started to tremble as it brakes into two. From below, a gigantic monster, embedded with its crimson red aura, emerged as it awakens from its million years slumber. It was a demonic dragon. It let out its monstrous roar as it extended its wings. William looked at his comrades and saw Shane had broken her leg. Blood covered her face. She was leaning to Moscov that had lost one of his eyes. His lance and armor were also unrepairable due to its damage. Behind them was Alfred carrying the unconscious Hana on his back. He had run out of arrows after their long fight against the demons. He looked at the demon dragon for the second time and thought for a second. 'What can we do? All of us can't fight anymore. Can we retreat?' He remained hopeless. He could not think of anything that could help them. The demon dragon let out a monstrous roar for the second time. It stomped to the ground, creating a wave of wind around it. It spat out a ball of crimson red flame towards the direction of us. We can't dodge it. We have no energy to do it. I closed my eyes and thought. We have failed the empire. 'Is this the end of our lives? Is this the end of our empire we are protecting?' What is the point of being a knight if the place we should protect would fall?
