《Outlaw Teens》Chapter 11
Advertisement
When Zack woke up and looked around the room where all other Rebels were sleeping on mattresses, he couldn't find Judy anywhere. Her bed was empty.
However, he knew there was only one place where Judy could be. Zack got up, adjusted his suit, put on hood and then got out of the apartment. He entered the elevator which led him to the terrace.
As soon as the elevator's door opened, he found her leaning by the railing and gazing at the marvelous skyline.
She was so lost in herself that she didn't even realize Zack was behind him. Zack was prepared to give a mini heart attack to her, but then he realized that she was crying.
"Wish I could do that too." Zack said.
Judy immediately turned back to find Zack behind her. For a few seconds, her body froze, as if she had been shot by a Stunner.
"You need a heart for it. You are still persuading people to your goal and taking use of their fragile state." Judy said once she got out of her shock.
"Do you not want to take down the government once and for all?" Zack asked.
"Yes, I do. We all do. But that doesn't mean you can take use of their weak state to your advantage." Judy replied.
"Judy, you told me you just need a heart if you want to cry. But, we need a lot more than that. I can't cry, even if I want to."
"What do you mean?"
"When you broke the news to me, a part of me wanted to cry but the other part knew I couldn't do it. You're not only my friend but also someone I am in charge of. You, and all other kids, I need to keep you guys strong. So, when you disclosed the news to me, I too wanted to cry but I also knew that someone was required to comfort you. So I just—"

"And what about all that you told to Drew and so many others today?"
"As I told, I need to keep them strong too. The sound of avenging their friends cheered up everyone." Zack said. "Look, the Rebels are in a weak state. Both physically and emotionally. Even Chief has broken down. I just felt that someone needed to step up otherwise everyone will fall in a pit of misery and never come back."
Judy gave no reply to him. When Zack turned to her, he found her laughing.
"Oh my god! You're just so.... Okay I am sorry for accusing you like this but seriously, you worry too much. I mean, seriously? A pit of misery? You're just so—"
Suddenly, Zack grabbed her by his hand, made her lose her balance by tripping her and then gave her a push so that half of her body leaned out of the railing.
"I knew I can be finally successful in doing this move." Zack laughed.
"Okay this is not funny. Hoist me up." Judy pouted.
"Okay, fine." Zack pulled her back up but as soon as he did, Judy grabbed him by his legs and gave him a flip, putting him in the same position.
"I have a counter for all your moves ready." Judy smirked and then pulled him back inside. "That's enough practice for today. Now I am going to sleep and I think you should better do it too. Also, uh...."
"Yeah?"
"I am sorry for my behavior. I know you for so so long that I should have understood it but.... ugh.... never mind. That's too much emotional talk for today. You know they make me uncomfortable. But seriously, I am sorry."
"That's okay. Now go get some rest. I am coming in a minute too." Zack said.
"Good night."

Judy punched the button and waited for the elevator to come up. However, when the elevator finally came up, it brought Bogart with it too.
"What are you kids doing here?" Bogart asked.
"Just talking." Zack casually replied. "What about you, Chief?"
"I just needed a less congested place to think about something."
"What?" Zack asked.
"So, the news is viral all over the Internet that the Rebels were killed. To let them know that we are still alive, I have a public display prepared in my mind."
"What is it?" Judy asked.
"You'll know about it in the morning." Bogart smirked. "Also, where's Drew?"
"Drew? Isn't he sleeping?" Zack asked.
"No. I saw Drew's bed empty too." Bogart replied.
"And I thought I was the only one not able to sleep." Judy muttered.
"I'll call him." Zack said, turning his band into phone.
"Yeah, hello?" Drew's hologram appeared in front of Zack, Judy and Bogart.
"Where are you?" Bogart asked.
"I am sitting in the park outside the apartment. Just uh.... getting some fresh air."
"Oh okay." Zack hung up the call and turned to Bogart. "I'll go and check on him."
"Get him fast and then go to sleep right away. Nobody will be getting any sleep tomorrow." Bogart said.
"Alright." Zack said as he entered the elevator which led him to the first floor.
When he came out of the building, Drew's back appeared to Zack. Drew was sitting on a bench in the park with his back turned towards Zack.
The park was lit by floodlights. There was also a fountain in middle which used hologram instead of water. However, there was a problem with its hologram so that the image of the water flickered. The tracks around the park were specifically designed with less gravity for faster running.
When Zack got closer to Drew, he realized that Drew wasn't sitting idle but fidgeting with something.
"I knew you would come." Drew turned around to face Zack.
"What are you doing?" Zack asked.
"Uh well, come here." Drew replied.
When Zack came closer, he realized that Drew was working on some gadget. Wires and motors and other machines Zack had no idea about were kept on the bench. Drew had even opened his shoes and kept it along with the wires.
"What are you doing?" Zack raised his eyebrows.
"I was working on a new Shocker. A s-safer Shocker."
"Oh." Zack replied. "But why have you opened your shoes?"
"Okay, I will wear them again." Drew said, putting on his shoes while trying to hide a smile.
"Now pack your stuff and move. We won't be getting any sleep tomorrow night." Zack said.
Drew got up from his seat and Zack immediately fell down. Zack tried to get up but Drew lightly tapped the ground with his shoes and Zack fell down again.
"That's impressive." Zack said. "Installing Shockers in your shoes will make them a lot more easy to use."
"Yeah." Drew agreed. "Anyway, let's go."
"Whoa wait! I don't want to fall down anymore."
"Yeah, I know. If I continue walking while wearing these shoes, you'll receive some serious injuries." Drew said. He then looked at his shoes and uttered a command. "Command: Shut down. Password: AvengeAva."
"You'll have to change the password very soon." Zack said.
"What? Why? Any problem with it?"
"Because soon you'll get your revenge." Zack smiled. "Now let's go."

On Astral Tides: From Humble Freelancer To Astral Emperor
What would you do if one day you were told you were one of the chosen who would have to battle to save the world? Akio was an average guy, having moved to the big city from his humble town in the mountains. Sure, his IT freelancing job wasn't making him big money, and he wasn't exactly a hit with the ladies, but life wasn't all that bad... until one day a mysterious angel-like being visited him to tell him the Earth was in danger. Many would be chosen to fight this fate, but would any succeed? Of course, if one could have the usual cheat skills everything would work out, wouldn't it? So why was his skill like a garbage pay-to-win mobile game? Akio would have to not only hone his skills and build his Astral Empire, but he would need to raise money, secure land and become a player on Earth too! Facing this challenging task alone would surely be impossible, so Akio needs to make strong and beautiful allies to take on all those who would oppose him. Who would that be, you ask? The old myths of Earth are returning, alien invaders are waiting outside on the Astral Tides, Cultivators are looking for their next faces to slap, Demons are whispering poison into the ears of anyone who would listen, and whoever was trying to save Earth by granting various people powers were making some really awful choices... Join Akio as he starts at the bottom of the ladder, clawing his way to the top and discovering one can change their destiny, so long as they work hard (and have a boat-load of money!). [Note this story is Harem, and since many don't like that, be warned! It's more Sevens than Isekai Smartphone though. There will be some R-15/18 scenes for the Harem (though I have toned down the one posted here from the original drafts more to the R15 side.] The story is pretty much evenly split between progression fantasy and real-world character building and events, hopefully blending together to make a compelling narrative about how someone could change themselves and the people around them for the better if given the chance by some miraculous intervention, while also hopefully saving the world (and maybe other worlds too.] Update schedule revised: Minimum 3/week - Tues/Wed/Thurs but will aim to hit 5/week where possible If you have any questions re: future plot turns/types of things that might happen and want to know so you know whether you'd find it worth your time reading, feel free to drop me a PM and I'll let you know. No story is for everyone, so no worries!
