The Zetta Sonic

Breaks

Here's the theory, don't touch anything if you don't understand what it is. His hand can reach several levers and buttons on the body of the pillar. Some have clear evidence, some do not. So, it is definitely not a smart choice to pull the lever or press the button carelessly. In addition to the lever or button, his hand could grab another one. The knife, of course. Moreover, at this time Damon was also quite close.

Alex pulled out the knife he was carrying. An act he never thought would be done. The stab hit the opponent's stomach. Blood also radiates. Damon glared back while cursing. His strong will did not make him give up. Damon pulls his gun, retaliates. That shot should've hit Alex.

Ought to.

Actuallyno. Jayden pulled Damon down. The shot also slipped. Instead of hitting Alex, the bullet hit a panel at the bottom of the wall marked by lightning. Panel electric. A very bad target to shoot.

The lights outside that had been highlighting the glass dome were suddenly extinguished. The lights inside the glass dome itself dimmed. Simultaneously, the glass walls on the pillars slowly descended. Additional security systems have been disabled. The green tube was unmoved naked on the metallic podium.

Alex saw the liquid inside the tube that was actually emitting light. Something in it occasionally bubbles up like water in an aquarium. Fishing curiosity and cause anxiety.

Damon wriggling. After successfully kicking Jayden, he reached out for the sake of picking up the tube. Electric shock snatching. The sting prevents anyone trying to tease the tube without permission. Damon cursed again. He pulls Alex's hand, uses it to pick up the green tube.

Alex is struggling but Damon is stronger. He could only shout when an electric strike stung his hand. Alex's gloves can neutralize hazards including reducing the sting. This made him manage to touch the green tube inside despite the pain. Alex peeked in the middle of his pain. Damon grinned wide. Alex knew he couldn't take the tube off.

As soon as the tube is pulled out of place, Alex attempts to hold it. While Damon was impatient again, trying to pull the tube towards him. Alex hugged the lower pillar in order to maintain position. His eyes closed tightly in pain. He can't see what's next.

Jayden, on the contrary, looked at him in horror. The green tube was not successfully obtained by one party. The tube was even stung by an electric strike. Worse, the tube opens because Damon is trying to forcibly pull it from Alex. It was a nightmare for Jayden. Had it not been Nadira, Tiger, or Caitlin who would have killed him, this incident could have sent him straight to the afterlife.

Explosions are inevitable. The shaking felt like an earthquake. The loud sound made deaf for a moment. Thick smoke filled the room. A strange smell felt piercing the nose. Fortunately, the explosion caused no fire and did not destroy the glass dome.

Jayden survives while protecting his own head. After the cracking sounds and heartbreaking cries vanished, he remained unmoved in position. He thought he was dead until he felt the air change around him. In addition, he heard a buzzing sound, a kind of airway sound that was ignited. Jayden dared to move slowly. When he opened his eyes, he saw Tiger glaring nearby. The big man said something but Jayden's ears were still deaf.

Tiger started screaming.

Jayden blinked, expelling the pain in his eyes. Slowly, his hearing began to normalize. “Tiger?”

“Good! At least you're alive, so I can kill you later.” Tiger's voice is not only heard as a threat but also as a form of concern if his partner is still alive. “What happened?”

Jayden is moving again. He groaned, realizing that there was a bullet lodged in his thigh. “There was an attack,” Jayden said. His voice was not only hoarse but also trembling with fatigue and fear.

“I know. I dropped a few people on my way here. You're lucky we arrived on time.” Tiger raised his rifle, throwing glances at some uniformed people inside the room. White uniform and white helmet. Those guys are remanning them. “I destroyed the signal scrambler outside. Nadira is on his way here. And, you're in big trouble, Jayden.”

Tiger helped him sit down to be able to see more clearly. One of the officers came over, began to check on his wound. This guy threw some questions at her. But, Jayden was too busy looking around.

Damon was lying on the ground, covered in a red liquid, and slightly smoky. Maybe dead, maybe alive, maybe dying. Jayden doesn't really care. He was more curious about what happened to Alex.

His heart was racing as two officers lifted Alex onto a white stretcher with a curved lid. Like a coffin but the top is made of glass. It also looks like a giant capsule. Alex in it no longer wears a mask. His face was as pale as a corpse with blue veins around his neck and cheeks. Green liquid soaked his clothes and face. Jayden was even convinced that the liquid was coming out of his mouth instead of just spilling over it as if Alex was drinking it.

“Hei!” Tiger shouted after being ignored for quite a while.

Jayden flinched.

“I'm asking you! Answer me! You know what happened!?” Tiger's question sounded as a snarl of annoyance.

“A-- A- What... Did he die?” Jayden still felt his voice tremble.

“Who cares? He's an intruder.”

Jayden cares. I don't know why. Even so, he did not want to state it let alone in front of his partner. “Then, dragon blood..” Jayden's remarks stopped. He doesn't know what to ask.

“Fall into the wrong hands!”

That's not the answer Jayden wants to hear. Dragon Blood or Dragon Blood was the liquid of their research. That's why the Zetta Sonic covert operation was formed. Now, everything's a mess. His savings were scattered on the floor. While most of the contents smeared the Killer Bee.

“No...” Only that can come out of Jayden's mouth. “No..”

Tiger was wrong to say that dragon blood fell into the wrong hands. A more appropriate term is getting into the wrong body. That body was Jayden's life-saving body. The boy, Alex, is now on the brink of death.

Tiger grunting. “I'll bet if he's infected enough Dragon Blood. There was almost nothing left on the floor. Professor Otto will lament over his work over the years. Doctor Vanessa may have to take care of the death warrant. And, I, maybe it's good to start looking for another job. Suggestions for you. Write a will. Nadira won't like this. You could end up in jail or a coffin, depending on his mood.”

Jayden understands that corporal punishment, dismissal, imprisonment, even capital punishment is nothing compared to life guilt. That's if Alex survives.
