22 - Here Comes The Future

I stared down the barrel of the gun, feeling my heart beat a little faster.

"Shoot me and you make me a martyr," I said, looking into his dark eyes.

"I'll make you a casualty," Rogue F said, pulling the trigger.

In a second, a bright light flashed through my eyes, and I could feel the blood trickle down my face.

Then everything became nothing.

I awoke, hair and clothes damp, breathing heavily.

Shaking the feeling off, I got up from my bed and took a cold shower. It has to be cold.

Soon after, I left my room, for mission preparation on Floor 67.

"Alpha Q, how was your night?" Ultimate A asked me as I entered the room filled with only him and a hologram projector, showing a 3D model of RAYA's main HQ building.

Just great.

"It was fine," I spoke, choosing my words, while I took a seat.

I can't afford him to be crueller to me.

"Ah, good to know. Rogue F should be here in a moment and after that, we begin the briefing," He said.
