The fourth By: Sage Miller The blistering cold gust was what woke Hector up. He opened his eyes and put on his glasses. He looked about the room and saw Reggie standing next to an open window and smiling, "Good morning captain." He said his voice dripping with sarcasm. Reggie had always had problems with authority and had on several occasions made grabs for Hector's position. That position was as head of a team of scientists who had been assigned to an expedition of the Antarctic. The reasons of this expedition were strange to be sure, a radio signal had picked up an odd noise from the Antarctic. He had been given coordinates on where to go

CHAPTER 15 Sage began to laugh uncontrollably to the point where he fell to the floor snickering. "Oh, hehehehe you two should see the looks on your faces, priceless. I mean really." Caitie and Keaton were at a loss for words. They stared at the metal-eyed man who was laughing at them so hard that a black substance was leaking from his tear-ducts. "I guess I owe you an explanation. SAM doesn't exist. I've been lying to you this whole time. I'm the one really in control of the Imperials; my name is GIaSS or Genetic Intelligence and Security System. If I'm going to explain I'll start from the beginning, when Sage had his memories removed he

CHAPTER 14 The Wastelanders had disguised themselves as regular citizens and prepared for the assault on the citadel. Josh, Keaton, Sage, and Caitie were stationed in a large building across the road. Keaton had a sniper rifle perched on a window sill and was gazing down the scope. Then Sage gave the signal. He fired a flare gun out the window and all hell broke loose. Wastelanders began to fight with Imperial guards, Keaton sniped several guards as well. Caitie fired a grapple on to the citadel and she zip-lined through a window. Josh followed, then Sage then Keaton. The inside of the citadel was much like the outside. Shiny and white, It

CHAPTER 13 "A long while ago approximately ten years, the Imperials rose to power, they were kind benevolent rulers but were almost immediately opposed by nations across the world. War broke out, and thus started world war 3. As hard as they tried Dr. Jules and Colonel Jackson could not win. The Imperials had too many things to pay for; after all they controlled a large portion of the world." "However it didn't take long for the Dr. Jules to develop a plan. He created a list of everything that took up time and energy and he decided to choose just one, one that they would remove and stop in order for them to acquire the resources they needed

CHAPTER 12 "Well? Did it work?" asked Josh curiously. "Of course it did. It's supposed to work." "So you're Sage now?" "Yes." Keaton examined Sage. "And there are no horrible side effects?" "Nope." "So what do we do now?" "I'm not sure about you but I've missed out on years of my life that I could have been screwing around with genetic code." Sage ran off into Glowhold towards the large central tower while ranting something about fire and LSD. "Yep. There appears to be nothing wrong with him."                                              ------------------ Jacob Schaefer wasn't the best of the Imperial soldiers, but he

The smell of bark and wet dust filled the early morning breeze as it so often did after it rained. A wooden horse-drawn carriage travelled across a damp pathway in the middle of the pine forest. The driver was a tall muscular man, he wore steel armor and had a broadsword sheathed at his hip. The passengers of the cart were dressed in ratty and tattered clothing, they all had bound wrists. This cart was undoubtedly a prisoner transport. The cart behind it was much the same, except instead of prisoners it held several chests full of rattling objects that were slightly muffled by cloth, these objects were the prisoner's belongings. One particu

 Josh's head exploded, not literally, it felt like it though. Pulses of pain shot across every nerve in his body and his vision blurred. Josh could have sworn he'd died but three seconds later he was lying in the same place in the bar. "New strategy!" Shouted Mr. Nobody. "We try to tie him to the ground! Do either of you two have rope?" Keaton was being swung around in the air, his baton was still stuck in Bulk's eye and the lumbering beast wasn't too happy about it. Caitie had managed a second of peace in order to respond. "I don't have any rope and Keaton seems to be occupied at the moment." "Well that's just brilliant, so much for

"Ladies and gentlemen!" Ront was screaming into a microphone while standing in front of a large dirt arena in the bar, Mr. Nobody was standing in one of the corners. Ront was next to him and was standing on a stool. "We have a challenger for Bulk again, the infamous Mr. Nobody!" Applause erupted from the group of Outers that gathered around. Ront leaned over to Mr. Nobody and whispered in his ear. "Ya can get some a your friends ta help you if ya want, Bulk is feeling extra… rage…y today. Mr. Nobody gestured towards Josh, Keaton, and Caitie to come with him. As the group approached Mr. Nobody looked at Josh. "No, not you, I would

"I don't think I understand Mr. Nobody, we're going to take drugs?" Josh was utterly confused by what taking drugs would accomplish, but Sage had always been smart so he didn't argue the point, he simply questioned it. "Well," said Mr. Nobody "I've recently heard of a drug that can and does fully restore a human brain, and since mine has been damaged I'm going to get one of these magic pills and eat it." So with that explanation not much more needed to be said and so Josh, Caitie, Keaton, and Mr. Nobody travelled out of Glowhold and into the wilderness towards the Capital. Once the majestic city found itself within their view they noticed

"So now you're all here it's time for a story, the true life and times of Mr. Nobody, who he is and how he came to be. Now listen: About 5 years ago I was Sage, I don't remember much from this time, it's really quite mysterious but… anyways on with the story, 5 years ago I was working (as Sage) for the Imperials in fact I worked along side Dr. Kelk the man who is literally in control of the entire Imperial Legion. As I was saying I was working with Dr. Jules, It was one of the only jobs I could find for someone with… whatever talents I had back then." "But something happened, something big. I must have stumbled upon something, some
