AGENT: The Agent of Mutants

07. Parallel Dimension is Exist

[Author's POV]

"Kim's in. Guys, we have to get together, something's wrong." Kimberly said through her earzoom.

"Okay, I'll be here soon." Valerie replied.

"OK." replied Rylan and Ruby together, then they rushed to the auditorium room.

The auditorium room is the second room that can be used as a headquarters if there is no event there, because the garden behind the dormitory and auditorium is very quiet.

And don't ask where Zav and Jack are replying.

Actually, Zav is not the type of person who is always cold like this, he is a fun friend, especially if invited to do something desperate (looking for death), he will go ahead immediately. It's just, he hasn't shown that to the new guy he knows.

Likewise with Jack, Zav's coldest friend was indeed untouchable, yes, but outside it. Ordinary people must think he is a hard, arrogant figure, no matter what, well.

[In the auditorium]

Kimberly who had arrived at the auditorium first, stood up restlessly with her confusion.

The Flashback

Kimberly was walking out of class when the break bell rang, she was just monitoring from outside the classroom. Suddenly, Alexa, Claire's friend who is also Kim's friend greeted.

"Hi Kim, you want to go to the cafeteria with me?" Ask Alexa.

"Eum, I'm not hungry anymore." Kimberly refused.

Yes of course, he can't go anywhere, he is responsible for monitoring in class because Ruby has been monitoring in the library.

"Yes, to the back garden of yuk's dorm!" bargained again.

Kimberly thought for a moment, the garden behind the dormitory was quiet and far from the school building, moreover she had to monitor the class. Ah, no, no.

"No. I'm aching, lazy way, hehe." he lied.

"Get me!" the woman pulled Kimberly's hand quite tight.

Kimberly gasped in shock, Alexa is not usually like this.

Yes, although sometimes scary, but he was never fierce with his female friends.

"Sorry Lexa, but I have to do the job after this" he said lying again with added reason.

An agent must lie well. Maybe when retired later (if possible), the first place to visit is a place of worship. Penance!

Alexa furrowed her brows, "Just for a moment! Let's go!" Snapped Alexa suddenly.

Kimberly flinched in shock for the second time.

First, because Alexa is never this weird just because of this very insignificant problem, and second, Alexa's hand that pulls Kimberly's arm, gives off heat.

'This doesn't make sense.' Kimberly thought.

He looked into Alexa's eyes, something was different from her!

His hands are getting hotter, and over time the more painful it feels.

"Stop." Kimberly muttered very slowly.

He stopped time.

After that, Kimberly turned around and ran quickly away from Alexa. Because he knew something was strange.

It's not that he's afraid, but Kim realizes his superpowers are passive, and he forgot to bring his dagger today.

He cursed himself in his heart.

When the distance between Kimberly and Alexa was about 5 meters, Kim looked back.

He wanted to see Alexa.

But nil.

Alexa is gone.

Kimberly knew exactly an ordinary human would not be able to move when he stopped time.

Flashback Off

After they had all gathered in the auditorium room, Val gasped in shock.

"What?! How could he just disappear?" Val said after reading Kim's mind.

"Who's missing?!" Ruby replied in panic.

"Is something missing?!" said Zav no less panicked.

"Val, let Kimberly explain, don't read her mind first." said Rylan trying to neutralize the situation, because he also did not understand what 'lost' means.

"Okay, so you see, I was called by Alexa, 11th class IPA 1," Kimberly tried to calm down, "first he took me to the cafeteria, because I couldn't, I refused... then he took me to the back garden of the school, when I refused, he got angry and pulled my arm." Kim touched his arm again. And yes, even Alexa's hand was imprinted on his arm.

"Because I was panicking, I stopped time, because I thought he was going to shut up, and then I ran, but when I looked back, he disappeared." Obviously at length.

"What?!" Ruby was shocked.

"You didn't see it wrong?" Ask Rylan.

Even Zav was now jolted in shock as well, though he did not make a sound.

Jack, yes, he's the least expressionless.

Suddenly Ruby looked up, "OH NO!" lantang.

"Why?" Kimberly asked, she panicked.

"Axa is in the library!"

And now they're all stiffening.

No, not because it's creepy.

But, because.this means that the chip thief has already started the action.

The thief can change his physique, remember?

"Gurgh!!" suddenly Ruby clenched her chest like breathlessness.

Rylan quickly approached Ruby and grabbed her. "Why you?!"

"Ruby?!" Kimberly and Val are panicking now, just like the others.

"S-it hurts like yesterday.when someone attacked Claire.." said Ruby while moaning in pain.

"But this hurts more. s-it looks like.the protector on Claire's body. "he said still hanging his words.

Kim wild-eyed. "YOU PUT YOUR SUPERSONIC WAVES ON HIM?!"

Kim was shocked not to play, as well as the others.

The last time Ruby put her supersonic wave protector on Val was. Ruby often fainted. Because at that time he accidentally put it on Val who was turning 17 years old. He knew the mutant who was just that old, his strength would be extremely unstable. And to avoid bad things from happening to Val, Ruby pairs up her supersonic protectors. In order for anything to happen to Val, he would feel it first. Just like this time.

"D-he unleashed a great deal of power."

"You mean, her protector was destroyed because of Claire's power?!" Val panicked.

Ruby nodded weakly.

"Jack!-" exclaimed Val was cut off because he had wanted Jack to track down Claire, void. Because he did it.

Jack's right eye iris turned blue. He tracks down Claire by scanning her right eye.

Jack is a mutant whose power is almost like a robot, because it is related to high-tech. His right eye could change like that if he wanted to.

His right iris will be blue. They can recognize complex objects. Analyze, and also develop subject data. Whosoever. More or less, like there was a computer in his eyes.

But Jack did it very rarely, because, if someone else saw his one eye in pitch black and the other one in bright blue, he would look strange right?

After two seconds of scanning in her right eye, she gains Claire's whereabouts.

Without saying anything, he immediately left his other friends.

Jack ran to Claire's classroom as fast as he could.

As soon as he arrived, he got a girl with a burning red aura around her, it was Claire.

He was raising his right hand, and in front of him was a table floating in the direction of his hand.

The table was raised without touching it.

He pointed his hand towards a woman in front of him who had fallen down while crying in fear. The table floated quickly towards the woman.

Jack looked into Claire's empty eyes. Their positions are facing, even though they are far away.

Not long after, Claire realized someone was staring at her. He turned his eyes to Jack. Still with a blank look.

Suddenly, somehow, Claire stopped her throw. The table came to a halt just before the woman's body was battered.

"Calm down." said Jack calmly.

The people around them shuddered in horror, staring at Jack and Claire alternately.

Claire didn't respond.

One sec.

Two seconds.

Three seconds. Still no response, as if time had been stopped, so no one dared to move.

Four seconds.

Five seconds.

Six seconds. Jack still didn't turn his gaze to Claire. Eye contact is awake.

Seven seconds.

Eight deti

BRUKKHS

Succeeds.

The table fell to the floor. Claire's irises slowly changed, and she fell limp-ralat-No, because Jack caught her first swiftly.

Jack takes the unconscious Claire to the back garden. He was already indifferent to all the pairs of eyes that were watching the two of them with various expressions, because it was an easy matter, Kimberly and Val could handle it.

"Location at 11 IPA 1." He said through earzoom aka his watch.

Then he turned off his earzoom, as if he did not bother to hear another reply.

○○○

[Kimberly's POV]

"The location is in the 11th grade IPA 1."

WAH! What did I hear just now?! Finally after so long!! The last time I heard him talk was when he gave me a happy birthday, and that was a year ago. I thought he was mute!! Well, good if not.

All righty! There's no time to discuss this.

I closed my eyes, "Stop."

A word of pearl for the time controller, Kimberly Fern!

When the time had stopped, I immediately went to class 11 IPA 1, of course by teleportation, Val who was holding hands with Zav, holding my hand, so it was not good.. like a mosquito, right?

Oh, you don't know yet?

Zav is dating Val.

Meanwhile, Rylan hugged Ruby so that on that lightning-fast journey, Ruby's bones remained fine.

In an instant, we arrived.

Waw...

So messy.

The whole class was in shock (i don't know what Claire was doing, seriously. I don't even know what kind of strength he has, until the curtains of this class are removed in half). They look at us with shocked eyes, like seeing a ghost. Exactly so.

"Sorry guys, for what happened." Zav stepped forward, he raised his hand like he was calming these frightened humans. "Sorry also the curtains, we will repair it later" he added.

I rolled my eyes, "Reparation for what." I said as I raised both my hands.

My left hand was perpendicular to my eyes, and my right hand revolved around my left hand in a circle, I twisted it counterclockwise.

Yeah, time.

That's how it works.

At least if I set the time at the scene, I can estimate the exact atmosphere to repeat.

As long as the time is set back, I can watch the re-creation of what happened earlier. So do Val, Rylan, Ruby, and Zav.

I round my eyes. The moment Claire changed.

Whoa!!!

I looked at the others. They're all gaping. Just as surprised as I am!

"T-telekinesis?" val said slowly, without taking his eyes off this 'reconcrete incident.

I wanted to wipe my eyes but couldn't (because I was setting the time with both hands), make sure it was real? A mutant with the power of telekinesis has been around me all this time?!

It's unbelievable.

I'm really gobsmacked. His power is so great.

I can even bet he can destroy one city with his telekinesis power.

"Kim, don't take too long. Remember, the laws of nature." Rylan told me.

AH YES!

Aye! Natural laws! I'll explain that later.

I immediately turned my right hand quickly, returning the time as it was. When the woman - who was wrong to chase Jack desperately - approaches Claire. Error, but now Claire is gone (maybe brought by Jack), because the Claire we saw earlier is only in the 're-design' dimension, this is the original dimension. Reality.

"Come, we'll all go first!" Rylan said, then they left this class, I'm the mutant himself here.

I flicked my finger. A second later, time went on. These humans are moving too.

They looked at me confused. As if saying 'Why is he suddenly here?'

"Sorry, I want to find Ms. Tiffany," I said, turning to the right and to the left, pretending to be looking for the homeroom teacher, "oh nothing here"

BRAKKS

Someone opened the door very tightly.

Ohh. So here comes the girl. It's so rough, it's worth Claire being angry.

I rolled my eyes, "Claire doesn't exist." I said lazily.

He looked at me cynically, "Who are you?" she said as she searched the room, looking for Claire, "Where is she?!"

I furrowed my eyebrows, annoying the guy turned out.

Stupid time ah. It's too bad that I argue with people like this. Waste time.

Appreciate your time, friend! Don't argue with fools!

I walked past him casually, then exited this class.

At first glance, he could hear his feet upset. Ih, like a child.

As far as the outside, the corridor was already deserted. Maybe Val and the others have gone somewhere.

And Claire must have been with Jack somewhere.

I let out a breath.

When the memory wanted to enter my mind, I immediately fended it off.

It was Kimberly.

Better, now I'm explaining about the laws of nature.

These natural laws were different from those of ordinary humans. This law of nature is the provision for all mutants with powers like mine. Closely connected with the universe. The laws of nature have 5 rules.

First: Do not stop for more than 30 minutes.

Second: Don't turn the clock around for more than two centuries.

Third: Do not tell anyone about the future.

(I still can't see the future, I'm not seventeen yet, but soon enough!)

Fourth: When looking at a very old past, for example a century ago, we cannot live in it for more than two hours.

(I don't have this one either.)

Fifth: We cannot enter parallel dimensions, even though we can have full access to parallel dimensions.

Parallel dimensions do exist. Shocked?

But sorry, I can't say more about that. Because it's our secret time-controlling mutants. Not even my friends know this, so... do you know what to do?

Ssst.

○○○

[Claire's POV]

Jeez..why is my body so limp...

My eyes are hard to open, I feel like I don't have the energy to wake up...

What time is it? Is it morning? Then I have to go to school...

But I swear, my eyes still can't open.

By the way, why is my bed hard huh? Like not a bed..

I think I should force myself to open my eyes now.

One..

Two..

I should be able to!

Three..

Slowly, I finally opened my eyes.

Well I wasn't in my room, but in-

WHY AM I HERE!?

In park?!

This is the garden behind the dorm, isn't it?

So I slept on the long bench of this park?

"Don't be forced to get up."

I jerked. Her voice was unfamiliar, it seemed like I had never heard of it!

Suddenly, someone came from behind me, and I fixed my position to sit down.

WHAT'S!? HOW IS HE HERE!?

Jack's flat, isn't he?

Oh my gosh, I'm not in the mood to see her flat face.

"Why are you here?" errat-the right question is, "Why am I here?"

Instead of answering my question, he reached out his hand, gave me a bottle of water, "Rest first" he replied briefly, densely, and vaguely.

Oh, well too. But it remains unclear.

I took that water. "Thank you, but why am I here?" Ask again.

"Don't say much, rest first."

"Why am I here?" it was my words that made him furrow his brows. Haha! Yes, introduce! My name is Claire Harlyn the 'I'll keep asking until you answer'.

"So you fainted."

I'm slack. I FAINTED?

"Can we?!"

He looked at me flatly, "Rest first, I'll tell you later." he said, crossing his arms. He was standing there leaning on the end of this park bench, while I sat down.

"Ish, it's me taking a break! Tell me, how can you?!" I will demand an explanation from him continuously if he doesn't want to say.

He sighed, "So you used your telekinesis, I came, and then you fainted" she was short and annoying.

E-EH?!

Oh my goodness!!

I'm starting to remember! The last time I realized, I was so angry when that bitch cut me off

I immediately felt my neck, nil. The necklace is completely cut off. Ah basic!!

I knew this was gonna happen.

My telekinesis will indeed come out by itself when my emotions are in order, and. when it happens, it will take away all my consciousness.

I saw Jack sitting next to me. He looked at me flat (never never).

"Why?" I ketus.

"Had thought?"

I hope he can't read minds like Val.

"Why is it that when you come, I can pass out?" Yeah, that's kind of confusing me.

Brother Brian once told me, in AOM first, whenever I lost control of this power, I had to be electrocuted just to faint. Even the person who electrocuted me fainted.

But just calm down! It sounds cruel, but I don't feel anything!

I looked at Jack. He still hasn't answered my question. His forehead creased, he looked down, like he was thinking about something. "Because your eyes change."

"My eyes changed... once you came?" I'm not less confused.

He nodded, then turned his eyes to me, he looked at me fixedly, still with a confused look. His black bead was shiny like the night sky with the stars around it. Got my iris locked with him for a split second. Without warning, my mind quickly awakened me. He did the same thing, he looked straight ahead, "I don't know why.." he said softly.

"But I guess"

"Haii!"

Jack and I looked back, and Zav, Val, Ruby, and Rylan were out of nowhere.

"- uh sorry to bother" Ruby said grimacingly.

I round my eyes, "Eh? No really! Here!" I said while patting the empty spot on my right. Suddenly Jack immediately stood up from his place (the one on my left), then rubbed his head. He approached Zav and Rylan.

"Eum, Claire... It looks like you still need a break, let Zav take you to the dorm lobby, huh?" val said with a smile.

"It's okay, hehe."

Actually, it does not feel too weak anymore like that.

"Is it really okay?" Rylan asked with a worried look.

I smiled, "Yes."

After that, Val and Ruby held both hands together, maybe they were afraid that I might fall, okay.

I've already explained why Kimberly doesn't exist, she's setting the time right? Yeah, it's worth the time around me now moving backwards.

"Thank you... Val, Ruby, I can do it myself." I said when I got to the doorstep of my class.

"can you?" ask Val.

I smiled and then nodded convincingly.

Ruby glanced at my class. He narrowed his eyes sharply (as if he would pounce on anyone who bothered me) and looked back at me, "If anything says yes."

"Don't let it go lhoo!" Val says.

I chuckle, they must have found out about it from Jack. "Yeah-iyaa take it easy later if there's anything, I say."

"Okay, I'm back!" Val waved his hand, followed by Ruby who walked behind him. I waved to them.

After their backs were out of sight from behind, I entered the classroom, and sat in my chair. And it just so happened that the time had already been set, it was back to how it was.

All right. This is normal again. That means there won't be any of that.

Of course because I would avoid that woman if she came later.

"I'm in, everything's normal."

"Thank you so much Kim, sorry for the trouble" I whispered very quietly, but I sure sounded.

"Together, this is not a hassle at all, just relax." Kimberly replied.

"Ruby came in, everything's fine" Ruby said.

"Continue our plan." Rylan.

Thank goodness I recognized their voices, except for Zav whom I had never heard.

"Something seems strange.." I'm making a sound again.

"Why Claire?" Val.

I stared at the empty seat next to me, "Alexa hasn't returned yet."

Silent.

"Something's wrong with Alexa." Kimberly.

"Nancy hasn't returned yet."
