《Project: Massacre》Chapter 5: The Truth

“What do you mean I’m not from this planet?” Zayne demanded.
“I mean that your genetic makeup is not the same as a human from Pluto. It is completely different from anything I have ever seen.”
“Where am I from then?”
“This map says an unexplored region.”
“Oh come on, is it outside the Milky Way?”
“Yup. We need to get your sister to see if she is from Pluto.” Vallard said.
Vallard couldn’t believe that he discovered the first living creature or “alien” from outside the solar system. He decided to test Willow to see if the machine is broken or if Zayne is actually an alien. Her results indicated her their full ancestry was from Pluto since colonization.
In a couple of hours, Zayne’s sister Nora arrived. Vallard tested her and she was a normal human from Pluto.
“This doesn’t make sense, she is my sister, therefore she has the same ancestry and a similar genetic makeup. We don’t really look alike but a lot of humans don’t look alike.”
“But you guys aren’t siblings... It appears that Nora was born from Martha and Hans Smith, and later adopted by the now deceased Nicole and Nathan Harrison. Zayne was the lone biological child that we know of from Nicole and Nathan Harrison. Oh, and there are no parents in the data for Nathan and Nicole.” Vallard said.
“Ok, I’m going home, I’m done with this,” said Zayne.
Zayne and Nora walked back through the main tunnel to get to their house. They didn’t speak a word to each other. What they didn't realize was that Vallard had told the government about Zayne, and they would be after him.
When they got home someone was waiting for them outside their door.
“Who are you?” Zayne asked.

“Oh I was cloning myself as Hot Tub, he sure is a handful to impersonate...” said the mysterious man.
“Ok, what is your actual name?”
“Matt.”
“And wait, hold on, you can clone a person and go into the cloned body?”
“Yes... but it only lasts an hour before I change back to my original form.”
“You can’t be from this galaxy...”
“Well, you aren’t either, my friend.”
“Could it be...”
“What?” Matt asked.
“Did you know my parents?”
“Yeah, I traveled with them to Pluto.”
“From where?”
“From a planet called Gordite. Oh yeah, that’s right, we need to move, the government is after you. Let’s go to my place,” said Matt.
Nora had to stay behind for her own safety. She would be ok because she has normal DNA. Zayne gave her money, so she could live by herself for a while.
Zayne and Matt walked to Matt’s place. They had just missed the police. Matt didn’t live on the same mountain where most of the people on Pluto lived, he lived in a small apartment building underground. The government didn’t even know this building existed. There wasn’t a tunnel connecting this building with the other buildings. To get in you would have to climb to the top of the mountain and there was a trap door that was covered by a stone.
“This is where most of the people who came from Gordite live. Oh and by the way you should probably know that about 10 years ago the government was taken over by the most powerful Gorditians. They can clone people for a whole day, and when the clone wears off they have enough energy to clone again.”
“What?” Zayne was very confused.
“Look Zayne, these people from Gordite want to destroy Pluto. They are the ones that set off the deadly pollution that killed your parents. They want to destroy the solar system one planet at a time.”

Lost In Translation
If you're one to travel the roads, you may have heard of me. You may have heard my Names in the stories, the songs, and the whispers of the road. Perhaps you've even seen me during my travels, speaking to a bird of blue light, or on a city street, performing small acts for coin and repute. Or perhaps you may know me as the Skystrider, who walked with the wind. Or the Voiceless, a man of song without speech. You may know me as the Tutor, who taught the Lion of Summer how to fight, or the Traveler, who has walked all the roads of the earth. I am all of these things. And people have branded me a myth. But people don't understand what a myth is. They haven't heard the songs lost to our tongues, nor have they seen the things I've seen. They haven't gone to the places I've gone. My feet have walked the plains, the seas, and the clouds. I have spoken languages unspoken; tongues lost to time. I have sung to the earth, held the moon in my arms, and walked the roads that your heroes hesitate to even mention. I have outwitted Demons. I have danced with the Fae. My songs have been heard by lords of wind and ash, and my steps have echoed in the bellies of gargantuan beasts the likes of which you have never seen. These are what real myths are. And me? I'm no legend. I'm just the bard stupid enough to poke the real ones with a stick. Discord link here. [Disclaimer: Book 1 of this story will likely be published in KU by around the start of 2022, so please keep that in mind. Book 2 and onwards will continue here until they are published as well.]
