“What did you say?!? Impossible… J-just how can a virus control another virus?”
“Even we can’t believe it too. The virus just evolves too fast, if we could only stop its evolution process.”
The general came barreling into the laboratory, he went directly to the main computer and fiddled with the control. He is searching for something, but what?
Kingstown appeared on screen, why is he searching for that? Kingstown is a city with superb medical and military force, basically a town that is immune to the disease. It is also located northwest of Hamilton, about 1700 kilometers from Hamilton and 500km southwest from this main lab. One last thing about it that it is surrounded by water, people can only get to this city by sea or air.
“Pack up now, we are going to help Kingstown.”
“Help? What are you talking about, Kingstown has a powerful military force. Why do they need our help?” I said as I scratch my head, searching my brain to find answers to my own questions.”
“Everyone, we need to move now, the virus is within Kingstown land borders already.”
“That’s impossible general. A virus cannot transfer from one place to another that fast, it will take days for it to even reach Lagmoore.” It seemed William had the same idea too.
“Whatever happened it just appeared there. I think it infected a human that took an airplane to Kingstown and started to infect others too. Death tolls are already rising.”
“Why do we need to move there?”The general is acting weird, is he hiding something?
“…”
“General are you hiding something? You are acting pretty strange.”
“*sigh*…The virus is heading to this very laboratory. It is expected to be here at 1600hrs today… Just pack up, we need to move to Kingstown because there is a laboratory there that can rival ours. I already contacted the one that is in charge there so we don’t have to worry about anything.”

“What!”
It’s already 1500hrs, we need to pack up soon or else we will be eaten alive.
“Alright, all humvees and jeeps are ready to go!” the soldier just said that in a happy tune. Why is he even happy?
All of us got into individual jeeps and humvees and jeeps as we leave the lab to die. Soldier said to leave all the valuble things behind for it is only just a bitter reminder of this very moment
Well, looks like this is goodbye to the second laboratory... To think it will suffer the same dreaded fate as the first one.
“We are arriving at the LZ point general. Expect pickup in just a moment”
Wait, pickup?
“Happy to hear you voice, we are also just arriving at the LZ.”
We stopped at an abandoned airport. This was the same airport that once served Hamilton and its neighboring cities. But due to the viral outbreak, it was left to die.
“Get your ass out of the car and go to the runway.”
I stood by the runway thinking of what are they using to pickup us. A helicopter? A biplane? A Boeing 747? There is just so many to think of.
I stopped daydreaming as a heard an airplane engine booming through the air. But there is no plane in sight.
And then I saw a silhouette of a big aircraft coming our way. At first I had trouble distinguishing it until it came closer to us. I just can’t believe my eyes when I saw that it was a C-130 Hercules.
So this is our first experiencing a proper military backup huh. We packed up our bags and the general droves some humvees to the plane. How are they gonna fit all that, we still have 2 jeeps and a humvee left.

A second plane came into my view.
So that’s how. I am really worried of every nuke and cranny.
The lead scientists and Squad 1 are on plane one and the rest on plane two. I strapped on the belt and waited for the soldiers to tie the vehicles into place. This is exiting, I can’t comprehend the joy that I am experiencing.
“This is your captain speaking, strap your belts for this will be a long flight.We will arrive at base at approximately 0800 hrs.”
“Checking gears… Gears 1 2 3 are set. Engine on… 1 to 4 are working fine. Ready for liftoff everyone!”
The plane lifted off from the runway as we head to Kingstown. I could hear something from the distance, jets?
“Looks like here are our bodyguards.”
They even have jets? This is insane! I just can’t wait to see what awaits us in Kingstown.

An Unbound Soul
When Peter suffers a too-close encounter with a truck, he finds himself reborn in another world. At first glance it is a perfect fantasy land. There's magic to play with, elves singing in the forest and a hyperactive catgirl neighbour. There's even a System that lets him earn skills and level up. But it isn't long before he notices that the world is far too perfect. Just why is everyone so nice? Can Peter accept the alien morality of this world's self-proclaimed protector, or will he seek to overthrow her? Set after the events of A Lonely Dungeon, a few hundred years after the rebirth of civilization, this is a story about an earthling falling into Erryn's new world and the subsequent struggles of himself and Erryn to understand each other. It's a slow paced slice of life, and while there are pieces of action, don't expect any immediate grand conflict between Erryn and Peter. Published here, scribblehub and amazon. Two new chapters a week on Tuesdays and Fridays.

They Shall Call Me EMPRESS (Cultivation Tales of an Isekai'ed Life Coach)
Meet Lynn Lee: yoga instructor, personal trainer, life coach, and smoothie enthusiast... Not a mystical martial artist. Lynn is nobody special, and yet she awakens to find herself in somebody else's body in a merciless medieval world of martial arts cultivators and superhuman muscle wizards. And, what's more, the quirky meditation technique she's been practicing for years somehow gives her an edge over most of the locals. The only question is... will Lynn survive long enough to take advantage of it? They Shall Call Me EMPRESS is my quirky take on the cultivation novel, a story of a fitness enthusiast Cali girl transported into a realm of immortal warriors and trying to survive... and maybe even thrive beyond her wildest imagination. Chapter updates on Sunday, Wednesday, and Friday. Plus, sometimes I accidentally upload chapters on Tuesdays, which will either stand in for the Wednesday chapter or be a weekly bonus chapter. It is a mystery! Please also check out my other novel, The Shadows Become Her

Most people think having powers would be amazing. Not Nate. If he had it his way, he’d never use them and pretend they weren’t there. His powers, though, seem to have other ideas. Uncontrolled powers sound problematic on their own, but when people can destroy entire city blocks with a wayward glance, they become a whole new issue entirely. Nate has always felt like he’s had wary eyes watching him, waiting for him to slip up. So far, he’s managed to just barely keep his head down, but when his powers force him to step into the spotlight, he finds himself caught up in the one life he never wanted; heroism. Now, will he find a way to accept the powers he blames for all his problems, or will he crumble under the pressure? Note: I primarily upload on my website on Sundays . I'll upload here regularly up to a day after the chapters go live on the main site. Vote for aka on TopWebFiction! Feel free to join the aka Discord. In addition to my patreon, you can support aka by buying me a coffee!

RELINQUISH
Sometimes I wonder why the world isn't decorated with something as cool as magic... Why can't we manipulate the laws of the world? Why does the story about God sound too fake to be believed? Why the hope for this world to be saved from the bottom of everyone's heart can never be fulfilled... Then I landed on each conclusion from each of those questions... That humans are the most cunning, meanest and stupidest creatures who are most desperately expected to not have any power including magic itself. That it is not God that we should believe in, because they themselves do not believe in how disgusting human nature really is. That everyone's hope is not for the world to be saved, but for the world to be destroyed in order to save their own selves. That the world from the beginning, was not meant to be saved... (I frequently revise and update the use of sentences in the previous chapters without disturbing the original storyline. so sometimes it takes me a little longer to publish a new chapter.) I have the same novel posted on another website (Webnovel.com , creativenovels.com) with the same name (RELINQUISH)
