The twins were far from identical. Voltage was so much more passionate and deliberate in everything than Abyssal. Abyss would be lying if he said he wasn’t at least a little jealous of Volt.25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo7delgeExY
Volt was stronger physically as well, and he was faster than any human alive. Abyss would be willing to bet every meal he’d get for the rest of his life on that.25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5TwbJf9YYz
It wasn’t just personality and ability that separated the twins, either. While Volt had eyes that seemed more electric blue than what would be natural. Abyss hadn’t considered just how striking his brother’s eyes were until he came here and saw normal humans.25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡduQXsGl0Ak
The opposite was the case for Abyss. He looked in a mirror for the first time just earlier and noticed how dull his eyes were. They were an unnatural and ugly gray. Nobody else Abyss had seen all day had eyes quite like his own.25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbfR1DrwsMw
Abyss was surprised. He stared into his own eyes disappointedly. Despite the hair color, Abyss always pictured himself looking just like Volt, same eyes, same face, but now?25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfLvzqXIHH4
Abyss noticed how sullen his face appeared in comparison to Volt’s bright expression. He felt so pathetic thinking about Volt’s striking features. Abyss thought that aside from his own unusually lengthy hair, he would fade into the crowd.25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY8kbpYy2EQ
Abyss’s hair was a regular old black color , meanwhile, Volt’s was a bright yellow blond. One would probably look at Volt and think he was a painting with all the bold colors.25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNbFNIRFWGR
Such things Abyss never would have recognized before. Not after living his entire life with the Rosork.25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1q9DiivKTj
The Rosork are a humanoid alien race based underwater in the deepest part of Jupiter’s watery moon, Europa. They have been there ever since they discovered this solar system, many eons ago. 25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmRVtB9BmwJ
Now, Abyss and Volt were the living weapons destined to pave over the world, alienated outcasts in the midst of several Purging Inhuman Species To Overthrow Leadership (PISTOL) agents. 25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOGqXVOFA5D
The twins were informed that they wouldn’t be moved to the main militarized base of operations for another few hours.25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcPfkpOV7OV
Abyss already felt awkward around all these people. Feeling anxious, he stepped away for a moment into a bathroom stall to recompose himself. Meanwhile, Volt was going around, talking to people in an attempt to get on their good sides and gather some information.25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡliNR64QrI7
Eventually, Abyss came back out, head held high. He hoped his faux confidence would make him appear stoic and unapproachable like the other agents seemed to be.25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdrtSl3b4sG
He then caught a glimpse of Volt out of the corner of his eye, sitting on a bench, his arms behind his head, stretched out and relaxed.25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrawbUqDOXJ
Abyss didn’t understand how Volt was able to feel so normal around all these strangers. The lighter brother practically glowed, as usual, his demeanor unwavering. In fact, somehow, by the rapid tapping of one foot, Volt seemed more energized and excited than usual.25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP8BAMjNa0f
One of the burlier agents bumped into Abyss, catching the young boy by surprise. Abyss profusely apologized before rushing to seek refuge next to the only familiar face in the building.25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRpVuEJbhGU
“Where did you go?” Volt asked. He didn’t seem offended in any way, just genuinely curious.25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKI59KiPIUV
“Bathroom,” Abyss muttered awkwardly. He clenched his teeth, crossed his legs, and folded his arms, holding his face in its stoic expression.25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSzKckmAlOb
“What’s with you?” Volt teased.25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKjVUpievIZ
“What do you mean?”25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxXJKl0ZWbD
“You seem so…. Awkward.”25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaC4BrM0fju
“I’m not awkward!” Abyss growled.25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQV19gFpLmV
Volt shrugged, choosing not to think anything more of Abyss’s closed-off behavior.25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgRXJYuZs9O
“I was wandering around and heard some people talking about us,” Volt said casually.25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLylzFhe9gV
“What?” Abyss hissed.25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQIQFSNwevC
“My thoughts exactly. Listening in closer, they all seem to know exactly who we are. One group noticed me and broke up the conversation immediately.”25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUnYgFAPRaK
Abyss was half surprised that only one group spotted Volt. The guy could be seen a mile away!25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1mVe9B0Ebj
“But they were talking about our family.”25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGwWigFyMdj
Abyss found himself unable to speak, besides his eyes which held some air of shock and curiosity, he showed almost no reaction. Still, Volt didn’t need to look at Abyss to know what his brother was thinking.25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjiXoDyfd1G
“Yeah. It sounds like our parents or grandparents had to have been part of some alien experiments. Remember when the Rosork implanted our cartridges into us? It sounds like regular people aren’t able to handle the implantations. Their genetics have to be intentionally altered in advance to accept the crystalline cartridges.”25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtR8Gk6mOxz
“So? What does that have to do with our family? The Rosork could have altered our genetics without them being involved.”25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR3II7CFEzm
“That’s what you might think, but when I say in advance, I mean generations in advance. A serum can’t instantly mutate a person, but it can prompt rapid evolution.”25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOfEgn0MLcl
Abyss twitched at Volt’s verbiage. “Mutants? Is that what they’re calling us?”25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYeDPG9Fo0i
“I know it sounds like they’re being jerks, but what else are they supposed to call us? Our cells and DNA structures have mutated and adapted to match the injections the Rosork must have given to our parents.”25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡapygIL54QN
“Whatever. But doesn’t that make us the very things PISTOL wants to annihilate?”25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb72qcvyhFF
Volt was quiet for a moment. A rare occasion. “Look,” Volt eventually said. “The Rosork told us this would be dangerous. Whether that meant fighting the royal family and their armies or living amongst PISTOL, we knew the risks. Besides, if anyone so much as touches your hair I’ll murder them in cold blood.”25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡslm6J6owpI
A small smile finally flashed onto Abyssal’s face before he responded. “That would void the contract and shred the peace treaty between the Rosork and PISTOL.”25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLzG35mM50G
“So what? You’re my brother and they’re all a bunch of dudes that want to use us. We don’t have to do what they tell us to.”25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz2FiSnOvSf
“You’re going to make an interesting Trojan Horse.”25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnrh76EovhO
“Hey,” a deep, unfamiliar voice snapped. Abyss jumped. He looked at a particularly high-ranking PISTOL member, who was glaring down at the boys, analyzing. Abyss felt the hairs on his neck stand on end. “I don’t know what you two mutants are talking about, but the chopper’s here for you.”25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6OpYKRrceE
“A chopper?! Like a helicopter?!” Volt exclaimed, eyes wide.25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ14XN7yUx83
Abyss relaxed as the man walked away. He forgot that most humans didn’t understand the Rosorken language. It seemed strange, since it was the twins’ first language.25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6MbEE9MXlx
The same man looked over his shoulder. “Are you coming or not?” the man growled.25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ41bU1MjmEv
Volt jumped up in excitement, Abyss in fearful obedience. Abyss regretted his sluggishness.25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu1g1l89tEh
The twins followed the man to the roof. Something in the pit of Abyssal’s stomach told him he was going to get thrown over the edge by this stranger.25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQGh7qakioq
Abyss struggled in his attempts to calm himself down, but the best he could do was maintain his warrior’s mask.25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiLWw4JciWC
Loyal, obedient, strong, collected, and fearless. These were the emotions Abyss wanted to have in this moment, and they were all emotions he felt were absent.25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡme6arfoS9u
Meanwhile, Volt still appeared optimistic and overjoyed about the whole ordeal.25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLdHEu8uTfX
How? Nothing on earth was ever anything the twins experienced through their life with the Rosork.25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ53SyrtwIG
Everything was simple there. But here? It was overwhelming. Earth was loud, it had many scents Abyss did not understand, and it was full of strange people (around 8 billion residents from what he was told).25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6MZrnAHTeI
They reached the roof, and before them was a helicopter. What seems like common transportation- at least in movies- and an impressive piece of machinery to us, was underwhelming to Abyss. To him, it was a box made from metal with a couple longer sheets screwed on top and bottom.25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRrrzT7b2CO
Meanwhile, Volt seemed fascinated. He darted over to the helicopter in an instant. “Look at this!” He exclaimed. “I’ve read about these! They’re a form of flying transportation that humans use.”25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ152iEYsS3o
The escort’s face hardened into a glare, directed towards Volt, and Abyss winced.25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS0IFkUOjT6
Purging inhuman species.25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtalOG91oUM
“And I don’t see a singular jet or hover module to begin the ship’s perfectly vertical ascent! Isn’t that awesome, Sol ?”25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPrc2UkdTtj
Abyss realized he’d gotten distracted and missed half of what Volt said. “Uh… sure.”25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGnYRlGzwSf
Volt switched back to the Roserken dialect and ran over to whisper mischievously to Abyss. “I also hear that when humans use flight as transportation, they’re provided with snacks and recorded media they call movies.” He got loud again, right in Abyssal’s ear. “They’re like two dimensional holograms used as forms of entertainment!”25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnRiJZMk7OD
Abyss rubbed his ear with a nervous chuckle and cleared his throat. “That’s all nice,” he mumbled back in Common, “but how do we know this thing is stable?”25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ86SsM64Lsy
“We’ve been using and improving choppers for decades,” the escort growled impatiently. “We need to relocate you both quickly, so if you would-”25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQqmnShYNax
Volt was aboard the helicopter before the man could finish.25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3lmiXC9Q6z
“Quickly it is! Ten steps ahead of you!” Volt cheered. “Come on, Abyss!”25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0zYkXRV7Xo
Abyss rolled his eyes begrudgingly and moved towards the shoddy machine.
* * *
They’d been flying for almost half an hour and Volt was pacing. “Talk about low budget flights… No food or movies? This is terrible!” Volt said this in Common as if to try and get the pilot to adjust his behavior.25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzguMP4Oy7E
Abyss, on the other hand, hadn’t expected leisure from PISTOL. Not to mutants like him and his brother, so he just sat patiently.25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFnnwHrFDlY
Eventually he spoke up in the Rosorken tongue. “Volt, I’ve had something on my mind since before the first transport. Did the master say anything strange to you?”25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc79CnJn8My
“How so?”25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡamR8VfB6nN
Abyss clenched his teeth and swallowed hard. Abyss lowered his voice, even though he knew the pilot couldn’t understand him anyway. “He said, ‘after you take down PISTOL, make sure you are the one last standing.’ Isn’t that concerning to you? It’s like he wants one of us to die.”25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlyd4b2blT0
“Not really. I doubt he would be so specific intentionally. He probably meant last ones.” Volt clearly wasn’t paying attention, but Abyss could only hope his brother was right. Volt crossed the platform a final time and stopped by the jet packs with a concerning amount of mischief in his eyes.25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡygQFrZNPki
“Hey, pilot! How much longer until the drop location? What are we looking for?”25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRFu7vx1jdw
“Volt… what are you planning?” Abyss asked in Rosorken, voice laced with suspicion.25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAXHlV1kKIv
“We have another 3 hours North-West. Sorry, kid. But the scenery’s pretty neat. The base is hidden behind a waterfall in a nice part of the forest. We’ll land on the river Bank just above and hike down for about 20 minutes.”25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcGxBOPahCu
“Sounds awesome,” Volt answered in Common. Another mischievous spark. He switched back to answer Abyss. “You don’t want to sit around doing nothing for 3 hours do you? I could get us over there in…” He checked the helicopter’s speed gauge. “25 minutes if we stop to see the kryptinal formations .”25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI7SMzRXaU8
“I have a feeling that’s not an Earth saying,” Abyss answered, disinterested. “You’ll get us lost, you know.”25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSi0JKb4gI5
“And you have a perfect sense of direction,” Volt pressed.25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8NgPSF4G3R
“Flattery will not help you. I am not going.” Normally, this situation was backwards. Volt had a tendency to enthusiastically follow orders. He was a proud and powerful Rosorken Soldier. Meanwhile, Abyss was the one to sneak off to get some quiet and dodge meetings… but in this moment, he... had his reasons.25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXkg5QHCwLe
“I know you’re afraid of heights , but come on. I’ll be there for you. Plus, we have these,” Volt wrapped a hand around a strap on the parachutes.25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHxANdgjM6X
“We have orders.”25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXDvlvWDCt6
“We were told to go to the new location, but nobody told us we had to stay on the chopper,” Volt explained matter of factly. “Besides, I’m going whether or not you do, and you just mentioned how lost I’ll get.”25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9qzvCBdFv7
Groaning, Abyss realized he wasn’t going to win this and had only one option. He sighed. “Fine. But if we end up street pancakes, I’m blaming you in the afterlife.”25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs5sQ7O4vXa
Before Abyss could blink, Volt secured both parachutes onto their backs. “Fine by me, because we’ll be fine!” Volt was grinning like a mad man. 25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzRbZvfyLWc
The pilot spoke up in that moment. “What are you both doing? It says the parachutes were taken down.” The man’s voice had reached an accusatory time despite his patience this far.25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmICYPDts2c
“That’s because they were.”25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ22XowxziMc
“I told you, I’m bored!” Volt complained. “So we! Are! Out of here!”25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL3r1QhQteh
“What?!” The pilot exclaimed, immediately turning over his shoulder.25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYrerIHDe6g
Before he could do anything, Volt had pulled the emergency exit latch and shoved Abyss out the side of the helicopter.25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG3BJpDkMNQ
Wind whipped Abyss around like a rag doll. Gust of wind blew into his eyes and ears, making it difficult to process the situation. He wasn’t even able to scream as the sounds were blown back into his mouth.25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAKtNpM6kAG
Abyssal’s long, dark hair whipped around and caught in his throat alongside his heavily beating heart. 25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOJwrQHjLFL
Gravity flipped Abyss so his back was to he ground. In that moment he was able to see Volt clearly.25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOFVQUeGORj
The blond twin’s arms were spread into a T-shape as he called down. “How are you doing?!”25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw2FfwGpsRg
Volt’s words were lost to the wind, but Abyss still responded. “You! Suck!” Abyss shouted back.25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMWLvMitmrC
“Look!” Volt pulled his arms to his chest and leaned to one side, causing himself to spin. His spread his arms out again, catching himself when he was looking down at Abyss once more.25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNoDowLlRDN
It clicked in Abyssal’s mind. He mimicked his brother’s motions, finally straightening out again. Abyss was now in control of how he fell, but he wasn’t fond of watching the distant ground grow rapidly closer.25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3WAhswOSS9
In a moment, Volt dove down to Abyssal’s side.25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDZJ8DdzD1A
Volt laughed at the terrified glare Abyss gave him.25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPEDJcWyRfe
“Pull this chord!”25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7NibDCVxiD
“What?!”25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1wJIJYcXwk
Volt grabbed his parachute chord and pulled, the massive sheet exploded from Volt’s back, and the boy was violently yanked back.25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ27o0e8cGY
Abyssal’s throat turned dry seeing the kickback, but he quickly decided that no matter how painful it wound up being, it would be a lot better than the incoming earth. Abyss scrambled for his parachute chord, twisting and turning off-balance.25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡACNpJwZSRF
When he found it, he quickly pulled, not considering the consequences of opening the parachute when he wasn’t straightened out.25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrQYikRI1Nt
The parachute shot out and pulled his arm back, wrapping around his legs. A loud pop was heard and Abyss shouted in pain as he struggled to untangle himself. The ground came ever closer.25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG3Nfn4wP73
Volt was unable to help as he hung from his own parachute. “No!” He thrashed about himself, trying to detach his parachute in attempts to reach his brother, but it was no use. He ever read that far in the user manual.25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCIFZct2Qmq
Miraculously, Volt’s help was unnecessary. Abyss managed to untangle himself, and his parachute spread to catch the wind.25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeg3Z2BRNrF
Abyss landed first, collapsing onto the ground and his parachute covered his body. His limbs felt inflamed and his heart hammered. He gasped for air and coughed to get his hair from his mouth.25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWXeUBBZTpK
The moment Volt landed, he pulled off his pack an ran to his brother. “Abyss! Abyss, what were you thinking pulling the parachute prema-”25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaeE0L1Iksn
“What were you thinking?!” Abyss fired back. “You pushed me out when I knew nothing about this kind of situation!”25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyntusoFujD
Volt’s eyes were wide. Sure, Abyss tended to be grumpy, but never at Volt.25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMSWHS2qRRC
And Volt had never heard Abyss yell before.25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOA4PjCEexu
Abyss aggressively grabbed Volt’s wrist. “I need to borrow your healing. After that, we should run North-East.”25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWjUhhqs5XQ
“Of course, you can borrow my power any time,” Volt winced and grunted in slight pain as golden energy flowed from his wrist into Abyss. Abyssal’s irises turned pitch black, as if they vanished and his pupils dilated to take their place. “But why do you want to run North-East?”25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqiL8tjFFiS
Abyssal’s pulled up a pant leg and watched rope burns from the parachute rapidly heal and sighed. Of course, Volt wasn’t really listening to the pilot. It was like a switch flipped the moment the Rosork weren’t breathing down Volt’s always perfect neck.25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡALxuBnu88h
“That’s where the PISTOL headquarters are, Volt,” Abyss answered, popping his arm back into it’s socket. Volt sighed as Abyss let go, black eyes returning to the previous, dull gray.25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxCLHIxRt8c
“And since when do you care about being punctual?”25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqsCcipzaGn
This response stunned Abyss. “We were sent here on our first job. Our worth is going to be dictated by this mission. In addition, we have PISTOL and the rosork to worry about now.”25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTsZ2pzq8hv
“Oh, lighten up,” Volt said. “I want to go see the natives! Explore the world a bit! They aren’t expecting us for 3 hours.”25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGTnNqWsLcC
“I can’t believe this.”25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9L6nBRsZKZ
“I know right?! An aircraft that can’t even hit the speed of sound, much less match me.”25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdmYHlV2Bml
Abyss rolled his eyes. “So you want to run around for a couple hours before heading over. I can respect that.”25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ARMo1XowN
“I thought so,” Volt grinned.25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2SQqVtPXLw
In all honesty, I just do not want to be surrounded by so many stiffs again any time soon. Still, it’s only delaying the inevitable.25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgDHqNlLQc0
“Ready to go, bro?” Volt said, holding his hand out to help Abyss up.25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhADZSgOAcm
“Oh, alright.”25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT8bF6VEPUG
Abyss slapped Volt’s palm, and static encompassed their hands. Abyssal’s hair raised for a brief moment as his eyes became black holes once again, only this time, lightning seemed to zip through the black lake.25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Fq9W6WX8K
Volt knelt in a runner’s stance as golden electricity crackled in his own electric blue eyes.25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡliZitAHEQR
“Ready?” Volt said.25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZy5M0zAcps
“I didn’t take too much energy, did I?” Abyss said. “Because I feel better than ever.”25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9gCCHrCIfk
Volt chuckled and let his face settle into a smirk. “Alright then. Set, go.”25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1sV0gYlqAg
* * *
As the two brothers dashed side-by-side through forests and towns, they saw everything the continent had to offer. Abyss had to leap over rivers to keep Volt from falling in, and Volt had to drag Abyss away from cliffs that he stared off of.25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb2rPcR52kE
They stopped to smell the flowers and played games with little kids before getting chased off school grounds by security.25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPvra8yoqOj
They even chased a trucker down a country road, watching the man drive off the side of the road at full speed before getting stuck in some mud. 25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuXrVxIDqrC
After some time, as the sun went down, Abyss realized how late it had gotten. “We need to get to the headquarters. We’re beyond late by now.”25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA7EWlSZpDU
“Oh, brother. I can’t believe I let you make us late again.”25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYZqcWlUhrb
“Me?!”25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSzo93PSUHe
Volt put his hands up into the air. “Sorry! Force of habit. Anyway, it doesn’t matter anymore, right? We’ve left the rosork far behind.”25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYrJozsR7O7
Abyssal’s shoulders sagged. As much as he wanted to see things that way, the twins still belonged to those aliens. After they successfully take down the world government and PISTOL, it’s back to training and slaving away on the Morbitor (this was the name of their main ship). 25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH3ldzqYoAB
“After everything we’ve seen today…” Abyss muttered. Volt raised an eyebrow. “Would you be able to kill? Even for Kronos and the plan? We saw some nice old ladies, and those kids were great. Why are we trying to harvest the human race anyway? So I can absorb the planet’s energy with my ability and transfer it to the rosork’s systems like a walking rechargeable battery?”25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUZZyWlzFyX
“The planet is pretty great. The sights, the sounds, the people. Maybe we should reconsider. But, then again. Orders are orders. And until I get strict orders not to wreck this watery planet, I’m going to go all out. We can make this fun.”25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxldIsU9dNk
Abyss groaned. There was the over-enthusiastically obedient brother Abyss always knew. “Still… What if-”25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfQAGPIE7fK
“There’s one other problem though,” Volt said.25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj6fLXMQbOR
“What would that be?”25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaWNivixotS
“We are completely lost.”25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYL7HJ126s1
Why am I surprised? Abyss wondered in annoyance. “We are not lost. I know exactly where we are. Believe it or not, I made sure we didn’t stray too far from the I15. The headquarters are South-East of here. We traveled a significant distance. It will be dark by the time we get back.”25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhPKRURDg4v
Volt laughed. “That’s my brother. Not the biggest genius, but a pro with directions.”25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsoWjCxI8Im
“Just follow the landmarks. There’s some cool stuff if you pay attention. And once you realize that, you’ll remember what you see and make it back to the start with ease.”25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLfwQ9scTxh
“Huh.” Volt shrugged. “Lead the way. And make it quick. We’re already late, so no detours this time.”25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwYi8jwhmC3
Abyss huffed before running off at the speed of light, closely followed by Volt.25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqkpzH2DUNb
