Chapter 2

Grey POV

"It is our plan to stop them. We have to find Ololkor and whoever is with him" Kalki told us.

"So, what's our plan? And where are we even at all?"

Kalki looked at me.

"Plan is just simple. We have to look for Ololkor and the best way to find him is by tracking down rough Adaptaes. That's the only way. We can speculate that maybe those Adaptaes are with Ololkor" Kalki explained his plan.

"You still didn't tell me where we are?"

"Oh, we are in Germany," he told me.

"Germany?"

"Germany is a European country. Germany is one of the most popular countries. Germany is known well for its automobiles and engineering knowledge. Germany was at its peak during world war 2 under the command of Adolf Hitler. He changed the whole world. Germany was the main country in world war 2. Currently, Germany is well known for being a free country" Basically, "freedom nation" Kalki gave me an explanation.

So, we are in German territory.

"So, what's our task?" I ask them.

Kalki smirks.

"Not our task, but only yours. Me and Joan are staying here because we need to start up this facility again if we have to leave Germany in a dire situation. Also, it is your task to find those rough Adaptaes and you want to become the best, right? So, great opportunity for you" Kalki told me.

"Wait What?! Why?! Also, thanks for reminding me…but how the heck did we reach Germany from Turkey?! It is like 2,980.1 km!" I ask them.

"Well, miraculously when you survived and due to the strength of Orion that we showed which had cleared everything in our path. I found a broken emergency plane that was buried in an underground passage while we were hiding. I fixed it and then flew it here. That's the reason. We are trying to make this whole facility as a perfect escape jet. Germany is one of our old research bases. I am getting help from Joan because her powers work here" Kalki gave me another explanation.

I know at this moment, I am going to do all things all alone.

I turned towards Joan.

"I want to ask something. Are you really 119 years old? I mean according to my knowledge know is that world war III is just 20 years old"

This is one of my questions.

"Records can be changed. Also, the fact is that most of you guys were not even born when world war 3 had happened" she told me.

She started to turn away from me.

"Wait!!" I want to ask more things.

She looked at me.

"What you want to ask me more, Grey?" She asked me.

"You are a very old Adaptae. So, I want to ask how I can scale up any Adaptae? I mean how can I judge them? On what criteria?"

This is why it is great. She is an experienced girl. So, she should know how to judge an Adaptae based on what.

"Well, let me explain to you. Strength. Strength is the main motive to judge an Adaptae. In old times before we found that we got powers, strength was the way to find if you are an Adaptae or not. If there is attack then there is defense. It is common sense. Just like how not every person is strong but can be a fast man like Usain Bolt. Same explanation, speed is one of the factors. Next up is stamina"

"Stamina? How does it help in situations?"

I know that stamina is a very needed thing for bed.

"Well, stamina is a way to determine how long your opponent can battle. For instance, if your enemy is on the same level as you then of course, it would be a battle of equals. So, time would be taken. So, better stamina will last long in the battle. Next thing…" Before she could explain.

"Weapon?" I ask her.

"You can count weapons but there are many people who fought without weapons. Your next thing is skill. Your talent. The things you are good at, like archery, swordsmanship, riding etc, these are examples of what skills. A talent that belongs to you" she explained to me.

"Thank you"

She smiled gently.

"Your welcome" she walked away from me.

"Nice girl, right?" Suddenly a voice came behind.

I jump back and look at the surprise visitor. Kalki.

"Why do you always come from anywhere?!" I yelled at him.

"Because I don't like to ruin the scene" he told me.

He gives me ear buds.

"What's that for? Music?"

Music when I die.

"This is for communication. We will talk through this and also our flying cameras will always watch you. So, we can get more data" Kalki told me.

I just nod at this speech.

"How will I go?" I asked him.

"Follow me"

I followed his path as he took me to a room or more of the garage.

"This is fucking cool"

These were my words after seeing my mission car.

Volkswagen Golf.
