Zachary walks near Ruby who is crying against the wall. His heartache as he watches her cry.

"Rue, are you alright? Why were you crying?" Zachary concerns voice had attracts Ruby attention who is crying and didn't realized he was there.

"Oh, Zachary!"

Ruby quickly rubs her eyes with her hand. Than she take a few deep breath to calm herself down.

"It....it was nothing *sniff* I just got some dust in my eyes that's *sniff* ....all..."

She tell him while sniffing a lot after crying. Zachary pets her head while giving her a warm smile.

"It must've been hard on you,Rue. By the way, doctor Xavier have called you to go to his laboratory. He have something to ask you about."

"Okay I will go now. Bye." Ruby walk past by him.

Zachary slowly open the door and saw Fana was there. He walks towards her and sits in front of her.

"Hello, Fana. My name is Zachary. I am Ruby or her real name is Rue foster father. I adopt her 19 years ago. I hope you can forgive her rudeness towards you just now."

As he introduce himself, I didn't look at him. I pretended not to hear anything from him. Expecting him to be angry for ignoring him, Zachary stood up and release free my hand that's been tie together.I was surprised.

"Are you feeling better right now?" He asked me with his concerned voice.

I rubs my wrist, not answering anything. He just let go a heavy sigh. Then he smile again.

"You are just like Rue when I first try to feed her medicine. Both of you are very stubborn. Well, I will get to the point. I wanted to make a small confirmation. Could you give me your hand for awhile. It will stings a bit."

Again I didn't react to anything he says. But this time he gently pull my hand and took out a pen knife. I was shocked and struggle to let him go of my hand.

Without hesitation, he slit my palm. It hurts like hell. I hurry up to clench my hand and notice it heals almost instantly. What's left is just some drop of blood on my shirt.

"What the hell is going on here!!" I was shocked.

Zachary nod in satisfaction. Then he look up and smile to a person who is using a lab coat. His dark brown eyes behind his glasses is aiming at me greedily. Next to him was Ruby who is looking at me coldly.

He turn back at me with his wide smile. But I can feel his smile was fake as his eyes looks so emotionless.

"Welcome back, Genesis. We are all waiting for your return. May your return brings glory to our new era. All hail to the Genesis."

"ALL HAIL TO THE GENESIS!!"

Above me there a lot of people wearing lab coats cheering upon Zachary speech. They all looks very excited to see me as if I was on display as the most extraordinary item in the world.

"Whats going on here..." I was speechless as I look around just to see them keep on cheering for my return.
