“... more incentives.”
A pair of beady eyes bored into my forehead when silence ensued. I flashed the famous hundred watt smile after noticing none of the words registered in my head. “Naturally. Everything can be arranged. However, I hope that you understand this is a trade.”
Juma West was an ugly, fat and bald thing whose grubby fingers only worshipped the credits in his account. Although this man had nothing on him according to my information, he was one of the targets on that list. Twelve targets, twelve purposes. Juma was the first because he was the least important.
Tiny eyes narrowed. “What are you asking for in return?”
I smiled charmingly but it did nothing to soothe the man’s wariness.

“Oh Pyros… is it really you? Am I really seeing the Night Walker in person?”The childish excitement on Rush’s face had been unexpected. The man was as bad as Ignacio was when it came to things they adored. For some reason, those violet eyes sparkled unnaturally with a goofy grin on his much-chiselled jaws. It was ludicrous!“No, this is the Day Crawler. Of course, it’s the Night Walker! Put some snow down your shirt and chill. I’m as normal as you are.”“No way, you’re cooler than the stories! I’ve heard how you’ve thrown Spencer off your tail countless times. You also know how to break in those super high-security areas as if they were your house, not to mention you’re the personification of Justice!”

“And pray tell. How did I end up becoming the babysitter of three fully grown men?”“It’s a long story.”Nash shot me a look that promised a long talk afterwards. I ignored it in favour of sticking my tongue out at Khronos who was now at Nash’s mercy. The old bag of bones received no less than twenty bruises from me. Rush’s eyes were still watering from the effects of Baby Blue. It had been tough carrying Khronos back and trying to keep a half-blind Rush from going astray but we made it safely to Nash’s place.“Quit acting like a baby!”“Then you should be gentler! I’m a scientist, not an athlete!”“Rush is not an athlete either and I don&rsqu

It was dark and everything felt heavy.My eyelids wouldn’t open but I could hear footsteps of someone pacing the room.“Sit down! Walking around won’t help him regain consciousness any faster.”I heard a grunt followed by a voice that grated on my ears. “Don’t tell me what to do! Besides, you said any moment now he’ll be awake.”“Well,” a weary voice explained, “I’m a scientist and not a doctor. Truthfully, he should be in the medical unit. But if I let Ignacio do that, his identity as the Night Walker would be compromised.”I heard another grunt from the same old man but the pacing stopped. The bed dipped and I felt a warm hand on my forehead.

Contrary to Khronos’ prediction, it didn’t even take two weeks. The simulation room was a lot easier to handle as compared to Nash’s unconventional training methods. After the second day of my rehabilitation, the devil himself decided to join the fray of simulated chaos. Khronos was the devil’s advocate with the improved simulation system. He made new training gears that simulated the actual pain of getting hit by homing lasers.Between dodging the devil’s close combat and deflecting homing lasers with Khronos’ new prototype defence mechanism, I had no choice but to transcend and evolve past physical limitations. Although I was nowhere close to the inhuman physical capabilities or composition of either man, I could at least dodge and deflect homing lasers with ease.Neither of my trainers allowed me to leave the premises unti

The door flung open harshly. A very haggard brunet entered followed closely by an exhausted-looking maroon head.“Sorry, we’re late! It really wasn’t easy. Work had been piling non-stop with the new construction proposal on the way.”Khronos wasn’t looking any better than them and Nash was in deep thoughts. I nodded at the newcomers and waited for everyone to settle before launching into details of my discovery.“It wasn’t for efficiency but for longevity? What the blizzards? That’s not evil anymore, it’s plain selfishness!”Ignacio had to placate his near hyperventilating friend but nobody could disagree with Rush. Nash, in particular, cracked his knuckles to show how much he agreed.

Terminated. Again.Slamming down the keyboard in frustration, I let out a low moan. Khronos glanced over and patted me on the shoulder with wise understanding eyes.“We don’t have a choice now. Rion erased the digital archives of all these people. I’m sure Spencer isn’t even aware of it. Knowing how careful my guardian is, there must be some physical copies lying around in his office.”Well, Spencer was the paranoid type with old school tendencies. There was no doubt about the existence of hard copies but the problem was searching for them. Personally, the office was the only place I refused to enter as the Night Walker even if it was to drive Spencer bonkers.Khronos grinned and wished me luck. I died a little inside.

How did I end up having Pantiumite tea with the man I was supposed to murder?The couch was slightly worn but warm and comfortable to sit in. The humming host insisted on making some tea despite his unusual house guest. Janon looked relaxed, his smile unforced although there was something heavy in his eyes that had me palming the hidden dagger.“It’s really nice to be paid a visit. I can’t remember the last time I had visitors. Your name is…?”“Night Walker.”Janon shook his head and sighed while placing a cup of Pantiumite tea in front of me. I didn’t drink it even when the eccentric host took a sip of his.I noticed how he had the same thick-rimmed spectacles and curly locks

“Thank you, everyone!” The doe-eyed pop idol smiled as the crowd cheered. Sapphire blue eyes sparkled and I found myself drawn to them once more.Sable Vogel is the ideal girl any straight man can have. Petite looking and small enough to cuddle, long black wavy hair that covers most of her back, the cute dance moves and innocent reactions during interviews were some of the many reasons why she has almost all of Luna’s male population as her fans.Ignacio has done a good job of planning the Slums tour. I wasn’t too sure if the idea would be well-received as Sable was a typical Inner City spoiled brat. She didn’t mean any harm but her childishness could rub people the wrong way especially in the Slums when their motto was ‘Live Strong’.Looking forward to the over the top cost
