The Last Embrace Chapter 161

Immediately she waves her hand towards the a kidnappers freezing them in the process, she also freezes the three men and the girl, except the captain.
During that time, Captain Mercado already recited a prayer for his soul, the soul of his men and the soul of the girl beside him, he already expected the worst, he was waiting for the bullets to hit their bodies...
One minute...
Three minutes...
Five minutes passed...
Nothing happens!
No gunfire!
What the hell happened!?
The captain was puzzled... why is it that he feels like the whole area was silent? As if no one is moving near him!
Jessy went outside the warehouse and freezes all the masked men that were guarding the warehouse.
Then she went back inside the warehouse and took off the blindfold from the captain's face.
"Hello Uncle, we meet again, congratulations you are still alive!" Jessy said clapping her hands in glee.
The captain roamed his eyes around him, he saw that the kidnappers were frozen, the three men beside him and the girl were also frozen.
"Untie me! Unfreeze my men and the girl, right now!" the captain demanded.
"Wow, you're so bossy, Uncle! I'm scared....very scared...!" Jessy pouted.
Jessy approached the kidnappers and took away their weapons one by one and gathered them in front of the captain, she also went outside the warehouse and took all the weapons from the masked men and brought them inside the warehouse.
All the weapons were now gathered in front of the captain.
"The weapons are now at your disposal, Captain, have fun with it! I will unfreeze your men so that you can untie each other's hands, the masked men will unfreeze after ten minutes, make sure you can get rid of the ropes that bind you before ten minutes come or else....you know already what will happen. I will go after the leader, he was taking the ten million dollars with him, I think I will split the money with him...hahaha...I'm just joking Uncle...wait for me...I will unfreeze the girl after I come back," she grinned.

"The timer starts now!" Jessy said and she disappeared.
Captain Mercado saw that his three men were already showing body movements, he immediately took the blindfolds away from their faces one by one using his hands still bound with the rope at his back.
"Men let's untie each other's hands, the kidnappers will start to unfreeze within ten minutes, we will be dead if they will be unfrozen before we can get our hands freed from the ropes, no time to waste!"
Jessy watched the men in frantic motion helping each other untying the ropes form their hands....then she waited no more.
She hovered higher and went passing through the roof of the warehouse and zoomed to the direction where the motorcycle was heading.
This is the hardest part, the leader already covered a lot of miles with the way he drives his motorcycle. She had not seen his face only his mask. But if she can see again the motorcycle that he was riding and the helmet that he was wearing above his head then she will be able to identify and locate him.
She thinks the leader of the kidnappers were going back to the city.
She keeps zooming into the highway looking left to right for his motorcycle.
She sighed.
She tried to locate his human scent, it's so faint almost nonexistent, maybe if she will keep moving forward his human scent will become stronger...
She can zoom faster like lighting, maybe he has not reached his destination yet, he mentioned about the hideout, where is that hideout he was talking about earlier?
...
Back in the warehouse...
The captain was the first to be freed from the rope then a few minutes later all four of them were freed.
"W-who did this? Who freezes the kidnappers?" asked one of his men.
Captain Mercado released a deep sigh. 'Who else?"

"I only know of one person who can do this kind of thing..." said the other.
"The Crossbreed!" replied one of the men.
They looked at each other.
It dawned on all the men in that warehouse that they were saved by the crossbreed at the last minute.
They could have been dead by now if the crossbreed did not intervene on their behalf and freeze the kidnappers.
"I will go out and check the surrounding area of this warehouse," one of the men said, another one joined him, they took guns from the weapons that were piled in the ground and exited the warehouse. On the outside they saw about five masked men standing like a statue, they were also frozen on the spot.
Captain Mercado and the other officer inspected the frozen kidnappers.
The Captain knows it's already past ten minutes...dammit...the crossbreed played a prank on him and his men, this is unacceptable! he gritted his teeth in annoyance.
"Looks like these men and the girl here will stay frozen...for how long, Captain?" the other guy asked.
Captain Mercado shook his head. "I dunno, only the crossbred can unfreeze them so let's wait for her comeback..." he said.
"T-this mission is a failure, Captain?" the guy asked.
"Honestly speaking if the crossbred didn't save our ass then were already dead right now," the captain answered.
"You mean to say that we owed the success of this mission and our lives to the crossbreed?" asked the guy.
Captain smiled a bit. "Do I really have to answer that---?"
"No need Captain I know already the answer to my own question, all I can say is that I'm happy I'm still alive today. I can still see my wife and my kids tomorrow," the guy said.
The Captain took a deep breath, his life was already saved by the crossbreed twice, hope there will be no more third time because it's humiliating already!
They heard vehicles engine stopping outside the warehouse.
The backup must have arrived!
The rest of the Captain men's entered the warehouse and they were amazed to see all the kidnappers were frozen in time.
"Captain, we caught one of the kidnappers, that bastard gave us a hard chase!" Arnold said.
"Where is he?" the captain asked.
"Inside the vehicle unconscious," Arnold answered.
"Let him be, he can't see what happened to his comrades, this is a top-secret! No one can leak these to the media or other people, what happened here remains here, you hear me guys?" Captain Mercado looked at his men.
"Yes Sir!" his men answered in unison.
"Good! Let's wait for the crossbreed to bring the leader of the kidnappers to us, let's see how good she is," he said.
"Why is she doing this?" asked one of the men.
"She's probably bored with her life and wants some action and adventure," Arnold answered.
"No. She did it for the girl here," the captain answered. "She's here for the girl, it just happened that we need saving so she steps in," he said.
"What we are going to do if she comes back, Captain?" asked one of the sniper guys.
"KILL HER!" the captain answered without blinking an eye.

Chaos Wave
The year is 2055. Virtual Reality has been around for nearly forty years, and the Full Sensation Dive System has been around for about thirty. The various countries of Earth have long since given up on Warring against each other in this dimension when it turned out that with the FSDS (Full Sensation Dive System) virtual worlds became real, especially once Richard Alonzo Albeque's AIQNPC (Artificial Intelligence Quest and Non-Player Character) System was released and spread like a wild virus across all the active MMOs. People vanished from their Dive system, leaving nothing behind of the person they were, and the Characters they were in game become locked out, and no longer responsive to the System. In addition to this, they are suddenly showing up on ALL servers of a game at the same time, almost as if they were now an NPC. The governments put a stop to all distribution of FSDS Technology, and keep an eye on these 'Digitized Players'. Ten years pass and one of the first ever Digitized Players, a Level 500 Catgirl by the name of Atreya the Dawnbirth, created a stable portal between their MMO and Earth. With the return of one of the players, the governments remove the bans on FSDS Technology, which has still been researched heavily while under the ban. Wars break out over control of Virtual Worlds, but these wars are all fought ON the Virtual World, so the Earth isn't polluted further. Immortality is now available to all who seek it, if you can find a World to call your own. Of course, nobody paid attention to one of the few warnings Atreya brought back with her... The NPCs sometimes became sentient and disobeyed coding laws.

The economy was rebuild and centered around these new towers, these dungeons, the treasures they hold outweigh their dangers.

Live the Ideal Harem life?!! BECOME PIRATE KING?!!! Okay maybe not that last one, but Reo will definitely leave his mark behind on this world full of mystery. This story features romance, comradery, an interesting power system and a post-apocalyptic world with amusing characters, what more do you want?! No seriously, I’m always open to constructive feedback. This story also displays my interpretation of a magic-coding-language (based on JAVA).
