“And the reason why you had to forget a lot of your memories in the past is because they might trigger and awaken the darkness within you. It cannot be denied that doing evil seems to be easier for humans while doing good is so challenging, but this effect on you is doubled to what the ordinary humans get to experience,” the man said. “They are only buried in your thoughts. Lost in the goodness that you were taught as you grew up, but it will not be as challenging to recall them as how you had to go through to forget them. Once you lose the light to guide you in this life, it will be easy for the darkness to swallow you wholly. To top it all, these evil thoughts and the urges to indulge in them are quite compelling most of the time.”‘Very tempting….!’‘Then what do I do?’ I wanted to ask, but no words made it out voiced. I could feel the great impact of his words on me. It felt like my subconscious mind agreed with each and every word he said. And although I did not have accurate sp

Just like you mentioned yourself, we use rats and do not really bother if they live or die in the process, that is because aside from the fact that they can reproduce rapidly, their small size, ease of maintenance, short life cycle, and abundant genetic resources. But most of all is because it is due to their anatomical, physiological, and genetic similarity to humans. And aside from being the a major source of food for many predators and scavengers, including hawks, fox, bobcats, and even wolves are not even useful in the ecosystem so they become useful to the medical studies, but may I remind you that this case with Marco is different-”“Precisely!” I blurted. “Absolutely different!” I added readily.I did not care if he wasn’t done speaking, I butted in when I felt the need to do so.“I totally agree with you. Marco is human and a friend of mine, as well, so of course I am going to deal with him like every human being should be treated by a medical practitioner, that I am. So, if y

I gave Matt a thumbs up sign and waved my hand to tell him he was good to go with us. “I will be right outside. I still have to prepare a few things to bring with me,” Matt answered. I grabbed one of our men, Malik, who was the closest to where I was and told him to take Matt where we were going. “Make sure you aren’t being tailed. Understood?”Malik nodded affirmatively, confirming he got my orders loud and clear. “Tell Matt I will go ahead of him, and take Skye to Marco as soon as possible. Ask him if he has everything he will ever need, because once he gets there, it might not be easy to step out considering we have to keep the place secure and under the radar,” I added while we walked not far from Skye’s distance heading to the vehicle waiting for us. I did not want to let Skye off my sight, so I told Malik to walk with me as I gave him more instructions on what to do or tell Matt. Malik did not say anything until I reached the passenger side’s door and he opened for me to ge

“My apologies, Gab, but I kind of agree with her idea,” Loid said while we watched Gerson lead Skye while Benny secured her safety from behind and disappear from our sighs. It would have been easier to move in the dark, but it was still far from nightfall. It would be obvious if we waited even for dusk. “I am well aware that, practically speaking, her suggestion was perfect,” I shook my head defeatedly. “But if it was only for me to decide, I do not wish her out of my sight or even far from my side. I would feel more confident that she is safe in my watch, up close where I can take the bullet for her if need be, but….” I sighed. “Let’s go…”Loid moved snappily to do as I had said. We were both out of the vehicle as we followed Skye stepped out of it when she did. He took his seat behind the wheel and started driving. “I did not expect the suggestion to come from her and insist on pushing it through,” Loid chuckled. “I am still unsure I made the right choice to let her do as she wi

“Wha- what?!” I almost jumped in so much surprise. The lady was wearing a blinding white cloth, and I couldn’t look at her face. “Who are you?!” I asked with my right arm covering my face, slightly peeking to check if I knew her. “You will find out later,” she replied casually. Then she started to walk to where Gabriel was still lying on the floor. Then she glanced back at me. I could see her, yes, I could see her every move, but I could not understand why whenever I look at her face, my sight would seem to blur. “You are here to guide her…”The lady turned her face in a different direction. My eyes followed where she was looking, and I saw Skye walk in the sides towards the basement in a cautious and surreptitious manner with Gerson and Benny.“What is she doing here?!” I asked. I was shocked to see what was happening around me. Gab was lying unconscious on the ground, while Skye is stealthily moving in the shadows, and here I am, apparently, according to the lady in white next to
