Chapter 4:Dream Dream Dream

(Mc POV)

I opened my eyes and found myself in a hallway it wasn't one of the hallways in the palace it was a modern hallway with lights and a design that gave off a futuristic vibe.

I started walking down the hallway and came across a door that had a name with a symbol on it I could've sworn I'd seen it before but couldn't remember where. I approached and was going to touch it but heard footsteps behind me and I knew someone was coming and fast I took a quick look around the area to see if I could hide anywhere but couldn't find anything.

I got in a fighting stance prepared to knock out or possibly fight whoever was coming. The footsteps got closer and closer and a soldier dressed in black with a helmet and red visor but what I took quick notice of first was the metal device connecting his arms and legs.

The soldier started running faster with inhuman-like speed and before I knew it he was right in front of me. I swung but instead of hitting the soldier, my fist passed through him along with the soldier passing through me.

I was visibly shocked and turned around and saw the door open sideways and the soldier running so I decided to run after him trying to find out where he's going.

While running I tried to put whatever information I had together and only came up with one thing I'm a ghost of some kind I tested my theory out some more when I was putting my hand through the soldier I felt absolutely nothing and it felt weird.

After running for a couple of minutes we made it to a well-guarded room with soldiers wearing the same device as the first soldier but different armor they wore a heavier red armored suit with a pointy helmet that covered their entire face and head but what both soldiers had in common was the name Atlas on their chests and shoulders along with a symbol of a red and white A.

The heavy soldiers stopped the first one and asked him what his purpose was for meeting the president and the first one said the words along "It urgent and classified information".Of course, hearing that any other soldier would probably let him in but not them they 'lightly' pushed the guy back who was sent flying and was about to tell him to get lost when the soldier put his fingers to his ear and nodded at the other soldiers and helped the first soldier up and brought him into the room.

I watched the interaction shocked by how well equipped the soldiers were and the advanced technology they had. I kept on urging myself to remember where I heard the name Atlas from but just couldn't remember.

I followed the soldiers into the room and was shocked at how nice and advanced it was the soldiers brought the soldier dressed in black to a man dressed in a black suit sitting on a gigantic black desk reading through and signing some papers.

The man looked up and I stood there frozen on what I saw or should I say who, it was my father he sat there with an emotionless face with cold eyes that could burn a hole into someone's soul. Most of the soldiers including myself shivered at the sight of the man and I could've sworn he narrowed his eyes at me.

He looked back at the soldier and said in a low deep voice that showed clear superiority"report"

The nervous soldier gulped and hesitantly walked up to him saluted and went into position and said "S...Sir, there are reports of operatives putting in resignation letters after your speech at the U.N."

One soldier in the room scoffed and said"Cowards they shouldn't have joined if they can't handle war".This earned him a glare from my 'father' which quickly shut him up.

My 'father' looked back at the nervous soldier and sighed then said"Is that so first offer them more money if they say no then honorably discharge them for all the hard work they've done for this company along with a nice compensation, also make sure they don't leave New Bialya we can't have them tell the United States or any of our enemy's our secrets".

One soldier stood upfront and said"Sir permission to speak".My 'father' looked at the soldier and nodded and the soldier took in some air and yelled out"Sir why are they getting an honorable discharge those cowardly bastards are abandoning Atlas after everything you and the company have done for them".

The nervous soldier interrupted and said," Sir I would also like for a discharge I didn't sign up for Atlas to start wars I joined to end them I'm sorry sir but I can't do this anymore".

The mad soldier was enraged and took his holstered Bal-27 and pointed it at the nervous soldier and yelled"Traitorous bastard none of us would've been here without Atlas the United States Government threw us to the side like trash and left us with nothing.If it weren't for him none of us would be the way we are now we would've been in insane asylums getting treatment because they thought we were crazy but he gave us a chance and didn't abandon us".

The nervous soldier stood there with his hands up and said with his voice filled with fear" Atlas has the number one standing military in the world but your forgetting something he the soldier said pointing his finger at my 'father' didn't just declare war on the United States but THE ENTIRE WORLD INCLUDING THE JUSTICE LEAGUE what do you expect me to feel happy, excited no I'm scared not scared to fight but because of all the lives that'll be lost because of this we've all seen what Atlas could do so did the rest of the world I just don't want any of that blood to be on my hands because if this will be anything it won't be a war but a massacre one that I don't want to be apart of" he said his voiced having mixed feelings of courage and sadness.

Everyone in the room was silent after hearing what the soldier said and all looked back at the President who stood there his back towards them looking at the window.

The President turned around and looked at the soldiers in his room and said" I know you're scared but trust me when I say that'll be the war that ends all wars I mean it your all dismissed I have a guest I need to talk to" he looked right at me when he said it which brought me chills down my spine.

All the soldiers left the room it was just me and him I walked next to him his size dwarfing me I saw his eyes looking out the window and traced them and my eyes widened in shock and awe with bits of fear. Outside the building were thousands of soldiers going into aircraft that looked like something out of science fiction movie tanks and other armed vehicles being loaded up into gigantic aircraft carriers but what drew my attention the most was 5 gigantic ships that dwarfed the entire building.

I looked at the Man who looked just like my father with his white hair and golden eyes the one thing he was missing was the eyepatch my father had on his eye but everything else looked the same. He saw me staring at him and stared back and pointed outside and

said" One day this will all be yours not just this but the entire world all you have to do is wake up to reality"

After he said those words my body shook and my vision went black I woke up back in my cell at the dungeon in a cold sweat. The only word that crossed my mind was

"What the fuck was that"
