《The Inventor of Magic》19: Chameleon
Advertisement
So here we are a better written chapter but still short. Definitely going to a chapter every two days. For now, enjoy! ^O^
>>>Zach POV
"Ma~n that lesson was boring. It's a good thing I wasn't there... He he he.",
You'll find that a simple hologram array mixed with a teleport is quite good to escape from the never ending haunting drone of an English teacher.
"*sigh* What should I do now?", I said to myself as I walked away from main school building.
...
Ah, what a great idea! Richard did say to enjoy myself afterall. Since I have nothing else to do, why not?
[Teleport]
As soon as I thought of it my thought was intercepted and the [Teleport] rune was activated. Suddenly I appeared in my workshop.
"Right then!", I said mischievously as I smiled to myself. "I have a little under one hour!",

45 minutes later

*grin* "Ha ha ha ha ha! This will keep me entertained for ages!",
Behold! My masterpiece, the wonderful, the amazing. Chameleon Array!
Okay, okay. So the name is not exactly matching the function of the array itself. But! It doesn't matter anyway. It's only something I quickly put together in an hour, I'm sure that if I finish it properly I will give it a better name.
So what is it? Well, simply put, in under one hour I Zach Morton have created an array that can change what you look like!
It isn't solid but for all intense and purposes it works. I got the idea for the hologram stunt I made in the English classroom. By using a hologram that is slightly bigger than the body overplayed on top of the real body I can make a hologram that moves along with the body. All I needed to do was get the hologram array and attach it to a basic physical enhancement in order to make the hologram move with the body.

It's quite hard to maintain the array but it's not too bad.
So what am I going to do with this array? Well simple, I'm going to go have a chat with David.

>>>David POV
Ugh. This is why I like holidays! It's only a few days into the new term and already I have two stacks of papers to look through. TWO STACKS!
*sigh*, seriously.
*Knock* *Knock*
"What now?!",
"Sorry for interrupting Sir, there is a man here that said he came to see you.",
"I thought I said I didn't want any interruptions!",
"Yes well he said he was an old friend of yours. Does a mister Richard sound familiar to you at all sir?",
"Richard!? What's he doing here? Isn't he meant to be running the company. Hmm, send him in.",
"Yes sir.",
My secretary nodded and quickly left. Let's see what that old dog wants then shall we?
*Knock* *Knock*
"Come in",
The door opened and in walked the familiar face of Richard.
"Hello David, how are you?",
"Me? Oh I'm fine, do take a seat.",
Richard walked over and sat opposite me.
"So what did you disturb me for you old dog.",
"First of all I must apologize for tricking you David.",
"Tricking me? How?",
"Because I'm not Richard.",
Suddenly, Richard flickered and seemed to distort before finally ending up as a dark haired man of around 30 with a dashingly handsome face, a close trimmed beard and deep brown eyes. If anything he could easily compete with Richard in the looks department
"Who are you?!",
"Ah, sorry about the whole 'Richard' thing. Nice to meet you, I'm Arek Morton. Zach Morton's father. I heard he had entered this school.",
"He did but, why did you look like that?",

"Oh like this?", he said as he turned back into Richard. "Well, I finished making an array which let me do this, this morning. As for Richard well, him and I are old friends and colleagues. I'm sure he wouldn't mind me borrowing his appearance for a while. Ha ha ha!", with that he turned back into himself before turning directly to me.
"Now listen up David. I'd very much like to spar with you if you don't mind?",
"Actually, I have too much paper work left to do anything like that. I don't even know if you're identity is real yet. Let me phone Richard and if everything checks out and you help me finish this damned work, I wouldn't mind giving you a beating.",
"It's all I could have ever hoped for.", Arek said and smiled.
*Beep* *Boop* *Boop* *Beep* *Boop* *Boop*
"Hello, Richard? Yeah, it's me David. Say, do you know anyone by the name of Arek?",

A Sinner's Eden
The Earth of the future is united under a single government, but not all things are well. The shape of the playing field may be changed, but the powerful still rule the weak.And those who do not conform with the rest of society are exiled to another world. A world that not even the technology of the future managed to tame.It should have been humanity's New World but ended up as nothing more than a penal colony. A place where the exiled are sent to die. Motivated by revenge, Magnus sets out on a quest to bring his own justice to his enemies. For that purpose, he is willing to go further than most others.But then he learns that if he truly wishes to change things, he can only find his answers beyond the gate. Having lived most of her life as an exile, Astra is a woman of few interests aside from survival and climbing the ranks of her clan.To achieve those goals, she certainly won't be squeamish when a chance literally falls into her lap, or will she? ——————————————————————————————— I am trying to go with a survival/medieval setting in this one. People from a technologically advanced society are thrown into a world where they can't maintain their tech. They are forced to rely on medieval technology where they have to make do with the limited resources they have and what little of their old technology is still working. Their gene manipulation allows them to have something akin to superpowers, but that doesn't help much against the monsters of their new world. Not sure yet whether sufficiently advanced technology will be discovered later on to count as magic. ——————————————————————————————— Author's Comment: I was asked about reading my work on other sites. The answer is simple: Currently, I am not active in any other networks than royalroadl.com. Only here, I correct mistakes and errors. If you read it anywhere else and have to pay for it or have to deal with an annoying amount of advertisement, You Are Being Betrayed. You would do good if you make other people in that network aware of it. This is a free project of mine for the purpose of having fun. And if people try to make money with it you shouldn't bother visiting their website. The only one whom I actually allowed to have my work on his website is Armaell who invested the time to compile them into pdf. (http://armaell-library.net/author/andur)

The Time Tower (the first visit)
****** There are certain universal desires, and chief among them is the desire to possess a button that will allow you to turn back time. The answer to all your problems. They thought that they had discovered the means to achieve the secret desire of their hearts. They thought they’d discovered magic. But we know that magic does not exist. Not in the way that most people wish it would. It was only an illusion. You cannot turn back time. You can only move forward. ****** Only two truths are certain. The Tower must come down. That is their only goal. Pima isn't certain that it's even possible, but when the task falls to her, she must try to set aside all her past fears and failures to reach into the past and change the future of the world. That's the first thing truth: The Tower must come down. The second is...It knows you're here, and it doesn't like being disturbed. ****** Note on the subtitle: Think of The Time Tower as a television mini-series. There are multiple parts, and sometimes you have to wait for the next one. Apart, they are somewhat short. Together, they are longer than a regular movie. This is part one - the first visit to The Time Tower.
