The Last Era's

The Last Era's
Act 31 [Timing Machine]



"Hey, wakeup!"


I opened my eyes that still felt sore. Then I saw the man who killed me. His body was as tall as Fin's, with a white robe covering his face.


I was placed in a dark room and there was only a lamp in my head. I looked at all my limbs and found that my left hand was gone. I move my scarf, but my scarf can't be moved.


"WHAT DO YOU WANT?!", I asked angrily.


"Nothing, just trying to figure out the true power of the mutant humans" he replied.


"You have power too?", "That means we are the same", "Why did you attack me?", I asked.


He laughed a little.


"Not wrong either", "I was created to have psychic powers and not an element like you".


"How do you know us?"


"Easy, I'm a creation out of control",


"We're the same now, aren't we?"


"Close your mouth and get to the point!"


"I want you", "Join me".


"What if I refuse?"


"That's it", he pulled a picture from his desk by telekinesis, then showed me 2 pictures of the girl in front of me.


"Choose one!"


"Arena? Fin?"


"Right", "I could've just moved in there and stabbed them in the back"


"Don't do anything to them", "What do you want?", I asked the more angry.


He severed all the ropes that bound my body, then turned his back on me.


"For the first time I want you to kill a whole ship of humans that was a while ago".


"Where is possible", "I cannot kill the same human being as me".


"If you say goodbye to these two".


"Curtain, I'm coming",


"Where is Fin now?", I snapped.


"Oh you'll know with that one".


"What did you do with him?"


"none".


"Who are you really?"


"Maybe you will know me", he pulled the robe that covered his head and taped his face towards me.


"Afton?", "Aren't you dead?"


"Afton?", "Definitely you see me as your weak friend", "I am Erkan!",


"We both came from the same gene, just mutated in different ways",


"You could say I'm his twin with psychic powers",


"Before leaving I need to decorate you first".


"You want to kill me?!"


"Just relax, I'll just change you".


Suddenly, I was immediately snared with a rope and dragged by two large robots. They took me to a large room containing many robotic arms and legs.


There I was given clothes and a robot hand. This robot hand is capable of being moved like my ordinary hand. It's just that it's still hard to control. I was led by them to Erkan in the other room.


"Welcome to my new partner" he said happily.


"Don't call me your partner!", tangkisku.


"You still don't realize how cruel a human being is?"


"We're not cruel".


"Don't dodge!",


"May I guess how much you hate your friend?".


I don't want to answer.


"It looks like you're still stubborn", "Come here! Follow me!"


Erkan led me by her into the dark basement room. The place was very far from the workers and was located in the deepest place.


The dimly lit inside the basement appears to be a circular object sandwiched between the walls of the basement room.


Erkan directly moved to the front door locking it with a special tool. He also picked me up with his telekinesis and floated me into the machine.


"What are you doing?"


"Be quiet", he replied as he closed the door and pressed the monitor screen.


This thing then lit up and shook. I wasn't able to hold on properly because my scarf was still frozen and I wasn't used to this new hand yet.


Shortly after, the whole room stopped shaking. The lights of this room are all dead and leave only a flickering red light.


Erkan directly kicked the door of the tool and pulled out his body. My scarf freezer suddenly melted and made me able to move a little normally.


My phone vibrates and lives dead. I hit it against the wall. However, the phone still malfunctioned. I got out of there and left my phone.


"Look over there!", point Erkan towards the giant metal tubes that look like a colony.


"Snow?", "Where is this?", I asked.


"Earth, 2 hours before the invasion".


"Earth?", "Wait a minute!", "What does this mean is a time machine?"


"Yes, that's right", "Timing machines can't be used to change fate",


"So, whatever your efforts are to protect the earth",


"The result will be the same".


"Then?", "Why did you bring me here?"


"That's it", man",


"You see that pipeline that's attached to the wall where the colony is?"


"Yes".


"Go inside, I'll follow you".


Erkan and I snuck through the colony entrance gate through the air pipe. After quite a distance, Erkan stopped walking and told me to hold his leg.


By the time I grabbed his feet, we were already in a different pipe. Wider and cooler. It seems that Erkan teleported me to get to a destination faster.


When the room below us was quiet, Erkan broke down the ventilation pipe. He then exited the site and paralysed a laborer.


I got off that vent and landed pretty hard. Erkan suddenly locked a closet and threw me a white dress and long-hit gloves.


"Deploy, then go to the test room!",


"I'll be back in 2 hours".


"Oi! Erk-", he disappeared first.


Without a second thought I wore all the clothes and all the gear. When I finished, I left the room. The room says dressing room.


The people there are moving fast. They ran like panic.


"Joey", "I finally found you",


"Quick!", "We must sort out where the mutant humans should stay", an officer dressed the same as me instantly pulled my hand while running.


I was taken to the testing observation room. While the testing room is below me. There are a lot of people watching. In the testing room, I saw all my friends including Afton and Nadia.


It's just, I don't know which one is real, because every friend of mine has a clone. Their faces and statures are exactly.


They are separated and divided into two teams. Both teams were then paired with their clones. They fought desperately until they had many wounds on their bodies.


I tried to hold back my hatred and anger. Suddenly someone came and immediately whispered into the ears of the chairman who was wearing a neat black suit. The leader immediately lowered his head.


"Everyone listen here!"


"I'm so sorry to say this", "But there's something I have to tell you",


"You know Donny?"


"Yes sir", "He's confirmed to have no element", he said",


"Although his body positively forms elements or psychic powers",'


"Until now, the signs have not yet appeared",


"And we're gonna, it's running out of time",


"You choose to keep it or destroy it?"


"No", I accidentally spoke.


"What's up Joey?"


"Isn't that too cruel?", "After all he's still a teenager".


Everyone looked at me with a strange look..


"Joey, we made a deal, didn't we?",


"If we have to cool our hearts down when we get here".


"This is Joey's law of nature, after all", "Who is strong will rule".


"After this testing", "Bring those who survive to the crate of time",


"Don't forget to erase their memories" the chairman continued.


Suddenly the sound rang out loud.


DANGER OF ATTACK


EVERYONE IMMEDIATELY EVACUATED


ALL SECURITY OFFICERS IMMEDIATELY PREPARED FOR ATTACK


"This is my direct command!!"


"Regu A take those still upright to the memory wiper!",


"Regu B immediately prepare the time chest!",


"Regu C call for help to protect these crates!"


"Ready sir", everyone answered.


We were all working on our own tasks. When they were busy on their own, I used the opportunity to separate.


My friends who survived after being pitted, were taken into a mind-removing device and put in a crate. While the sprawled ones are left alone.


"Hey, what do you want this one to do?", I asked the last worker who left the testing room.


"Let it go", "They've failed".


That word made me even more angry. Suddenly the man slammed into the wall and was pierced by a taper rock. When I checked back, it appeared that a dying young Erkan was pointing a piece of metal at my face.


"Wait for Erkan" "I've come to save you".


"Are you sure?"


"of course".


"Your face is like Andrew's", "All right, I believe".


He then threw his weapon and pulled all the bodies of my friends towards him. I immediately broke my scarf and floated each shard into each of my friends' bodies.


They and Erkan then I tied up and took them flying. The roofs of the rooms collapsed one by one, and the pipes gave off steam.


Suddenly, dozens of cyborgs and robots of various sizes shot at me from below. I immediately took them all to hide behind the wall.


"Andrew! You're not Andrew", "Obviously you have to, save Andrew".


"Why?", I replied as I occasionally shot at them with my plasma canons.


"Because he is our only loyal friend", "He has been considered a failure and will be banished".


"Damn", "Where's the location?"


"In the place of destruction in the back".


They use armor and a shield so they can hold my plasma. They kept coming and overwhelmed me.


"They're getting closer".


"I'll throw them down".


Erkan's thump was not so strong because it was exhausted. They also started shooting at the walls bit by bit. I was forced to use the power of the crystals to maintain our position.


As we get more desperate. Suddenly a land monster armed with a lightning trident broke into the enemy's defenses. The trident then exploded and made all the lights go out completely.


FATAL DAMAGE DETECTED


OPEN THE WHOLE VALVE AND ROOF AUTOMATICALLY


The stone monster was then destroyed due to the explosion. Shortly thereafter, a yellowish crescent-shaped flame line struck down the entourage.


I checked all my tied friends. However, they had already disappeared and could attack the enemy. I could see it when a little moonlight started to illuminate.


"Are you okay?", asked Arina to me.


His irises glowed white and looked at me with his flat face. From behind her was a blue-eyed Mabel who walked towards me.


"You two hurry up and go to the time box!",


"We'll keep him here" Mabel ordered.


"Also, please protect our other clones" "Don't let them be like us" Linda explained.


"You two go quickly!", Afton snapped.


"What about you?", asked Erkan.


"Our time is up", "We are destined to die" Afton explained as he grew his armor and crystal sword.


"Go now!", cried Arina.


Arina instantly raised a snow monster and pushed us the other side of the room. He also blocked the room with his pointed ice-ice.


"Wait on! Arina!"


"Andrew listen!", "Human is destined to be tormented by his own race", Erkan explained as he pressed me down with gravity.


"Let them be free from this prison".


I wiped my tears and took Erkan flying in search of the old me or Andrew. Every now and then during our journey we attack enemies who try to get in the way.


We were at the extermination site. There seemed me unconscious was being flowed by a treamil into the lava.


I broke the glass in the room and jumped into the hot spot. I detonated a rocket in my leg and landed me on the treadmill, right next to Andrew or my body.


When I hold his hand.


'Shin, wait for you two?''Torturing us continuously was useless' 'I can't stand this anymore' 'I have no element' 'Why should I live like this..'


All his memories flowed straight into my head. I held onto my loud thumping head, hearing the whispers of that terrible past. Erkan continued to call out to me from the outside while attacking the enemy.


Four cyborgs jumped in front of me and slashed their swords at me simultaneously. Instantly my mind went blank, and my scarf floated piercing all of them.


Andrew fell into the lava, I quickly pulled him up. The cyborg body entered the kelava and exploded. Made the lava explode and splash into my hands.


I detonated my rocket and took Andrew away from the treadmill. I moved to Erkan's overwhelmed place and handed Andrew's body to him


I walked with empty thoughts towards the enemy. My scarf turned into dragon scales and stabbed them in the head. I also shot them with my canon until they were destroyed.


I then carried them flying towards the time coffin storage. I found two crates that were still intact. I put Andrew in a mind-wiping machine.


However, in the middle of the engine was suddenly dead and emitted black smoke.


"How now?", I asked.


"It looks like Andrew's memory has been erased a little bit", "Just put us in the time box".


"What about your memory" I asked.


"What's wrong, I'm gonna keep this pain forever".


"Alright", ask me while putting it into the starch of time.


"I swear to come back and invite Andrew to avenge the deeds of men" he answered as long as the chest closed.


"Hopefully we can meet again".


I stuffed my young body into the last crate and wrote Donny's name on the chest that day. I also tore my scarf and brought it closer to my young body.


Instantly the tear extends and forms a new scarf. The shape was exactly mine and I put the scarf beside it.


"Thank you for the memory, Donny", I said as I closed the chest.


Suddenly the walls of the room collapsed and a giant robot took the two chests. I formed a fire canon, nothing happened. Making a crystal wall, nothing happened.


From the robot's back came a big shot that filled and aimed at me. I flew away to avoid that huge explosion.


From above I looked for a gap to get inside the robot. But the robot was very tight and loud. From above I also saw the entire building and colony of ravages.


Suddenly all the small robots enter the larger robots. Then the great robor flew into the sky.


The dim lights from a distance seemed to be two planes flying towards me while dropping two large bombs. I immediately detonated my rocket and flew away to avoid the explosion.


My time wasn't enough, the explosion was so violent that it sent me flying into the sky. Suddenly a hand grabbed me and moved me to the time machine.


We go back to the beginning and time. Erkan seemed to feel relieved just like me.


"So it was almost" "Isn't that so Andrew?"


"Yes, that name isn't bad either".


"Hows it? Did you find anything?"


"Yes, something you want because it can change me",


"Thank you for making me remember it again" I said with a laugh.


"That's okay, let's just say it's a retribution from the past".


"Then, what's your goal?"


"Join me", "With this, we will become strong and invincible", he extended his hand.


"Happyly", I replied as I shook his hand.


"Rubby".


.......


.......


.......


"Master, the six time chests have already been successfully retrieved"


"The last signs of human life on earth?"


"0"


"Well, now pull back all the soldiers", "Our attack has succeeded", "Now we can return to life in peace again", "We will return to the C40Res soon".


"Good Master".
