Chapter 8

Someone's Pov/Arthur Gerron

"Art…" 'sweet voice want to sleep more.'

"Arth…" 'marvelous, yes my angel, I'm coming.'

"ARTHUR!!!"

A rough shout woke me up from my little dream .

What did I do? What did I do to deserve this? I'm close to meet my dream girl.

How did I offended you to disturb me like this?

I almost cried but I'm a soldier. I opened my eyes and saw an angel and a devil.

"What were you waking me for, ?" I shouted back , I'm pissed of.

"' yes my angel ,I'm coming.' Hahaha. It's funny man…hahahah" Jack laughed mockingly holding his stomach in laughter that really made me pissed.

"Want a fight, you mongrel?" I can't hold it. I want to tear this guy.

First he disturb my nap , now he's mocking my little dream.

Wait …

So they heard it?

Sh*t I want to find a hole to hide . It's embarrassing.

"Easy man, Why so hot blooded? Let's just do the fighting tomorrow. I'm tired." The devil said suddenly with an exhausted attitude.

" Calm down, Art. Though your mumbling is indeed funny, we came here for other reason." Geneva said seriously. Though I felt like she's also mocking me in her own way. But I can't find an evidence.

I calmed myself.

"What were you here for then?" I questioned.

"We want you to monitor a certain recruit. A recruit who became a LEAPER." Geneva said in a serious tone.

"What? How? When?" I don't know what to say. I'm shocked. How did it happen? It's impossible.

" It's a recruit named Lookie Kyves. (pronounced like a knives but with the 'k')

He's very sensitive to power energy that he was shock into jumping when he first ate the beast meat in their first day of training." Said Jack who's holding something from my work-table.

F*CK

"Don't touch my figurines!!!" I shouted seemingly about to jump to save my babies from the hands of the baboon.

I spent a lot of time and money collecting those action figures . I can't let someone break them.

That's supergirl action figure cost a 100 dollar.

" I didn't know you like this stuffs. Ops"

Drop

Shatter

"Ahhh what did you do?" My baby.

" I'll fight you real this time." I leaped high about to throw a punch to the destroyer when a shadow flashed between me and Jack who's readying his stance for a battle.

We bother stopped when we felt the cold edge of the knife in our throats.

I gulped. Jacked did the same .

" Would you stop or what?" a cold voice reached our ears. It's like a demoness call, tempting but deadly.

Cold sweat dropped

Then Geneva retracted her knives from both our throats . We took back our fighting stances .

"Okay, now we're good" She said still filled with coldness. This girl is scary. That's for sure.

She's a rose, a thorny beautiful flower.

"hayst" I blow a breath to calm myself.

She then glared at Jack.

" I don't want you to speak a single word." She said. I gloated.

"And what are you gloating at? Want some punishment?" She again said now looking at me. I saw Jack snorting at the side.

" Monitor the guy, Lookie Kyves, his quarters is in this area. Now go immediately. I want a rest." She ended walking at the direction of her tent.

I glared at Jack before I quickly went to my assignment. It may not look like it but Geneva is a little higher in rank in military than us Jack. So we have to follow some of her commands.

With me is the booklet for mutants that should be handed to every mutant of the military.

I ran through the tents following the direction given to me by Geneva till I arrive in a tent with a tree in its nearby.

'This is the place.'

I sneak my way to the tree, climbing it in mere seconds without sound , assassinations are my forte.

It's not an assassination though.

I saw him spacing in his thoughts grinning just outside of his tent.

They didn't told me this guy is a retard.

I then took the opportunity that his out of his senses and Throw the booklet in the air.

I then took my knife and throw it . With my knife-throwing skills I punctured the booklet with my knife into the table.

I'm cool. Hoho

I laughed from inside , impressed with my performance.

I then saw him regain his senses.

"Hm?, What's this?"

" And who's this guy so irresponsible putting a paper here?"

He blurted out successively.

This guy is cursing me. I breath in then breath out. I should not be provoked by little things like this.

Maybe I'm still pissed off by what happened earlier.

'My baby'

I'll get back to Jack later.

The guy went inside his tent.. So I leaped to the side of the tent hiding the sound of my fall with the howl of the beast outside the camp.

I'll continue my job here

Then I settle myself mere inches from the guy's tent wall

I hear him reading the booklet for about 30 minutes while mumbling some unnecessary stuffs . Then he went to his bed about to sleep.

There nothing special with this guy.

I was about to leap back to the tree, deciding to continue the monitoring in a more comfortable spot when something happened to the guy's body.

"What the .."

I didn't finish my word. I used my heightened sense to sense the guy which is just centimeters away from the wall I'm currently in.

The air surge a little, affected by what is happening to the guy.

'a breakthrough? Impossible!' I widened my eyes when I think about it. Shaking my head in refusal.

'But it's clearly a breakthrough. Can't fool myself. Unless.' Another thing came into my mind which I think is another impossibility.

Well, maybe it's better say it a rarity.

'This guy has absurd energy absorption rate. Not wasting anything. Maybe even from the food he gained something to help in his advancing to be a LEAPER RANK.'

THIS GUY…I smiled ' another seed to bloom into a high tree.'
