K-4 was the most serious of the five, she absolutely had no sense of humour, the sick bullying bothered her in that they distracted from ‘important’ matters. She never seek pleasure, she only focused on training, experiments and reading books on philosophy and science. I enjoyed some of those books. She was like K-1’s second woman, and would sometime take change if K-1 was up to something else. Her loyalty was undying and she believed everything that the facility told her, even the others found bullshit. She specialized in explosions as she was patient and focused, she also have some brutal counter techniques which I know K-2 is fond of. While the others may have their warmth with her, I remain as aloof and cold as she is towards her.

I wasn’t sure if I should reply, but Chony life was on her hands, I had to try something but I just can’t be brash. I greet, “Hello.”. She replied in a slight rise, “K three? Is that you? Where are you calling from? Who is Lue?”. I put my left two fingers at my forehead, trying to not stress out. I answered, “I killed Lue and took her phone and I saw someone call so I picked it up, what a coincidence that you were calling.”. She replied professionally, “Indeed, at the moment, I have some hostages, trying to get answers.”. Chony spilled out, “Lue killed Reba!”. I heard a wack of a gun, K-4 said, “Sorry, he was spilling something about Lue.”. Another man voice spoke, “Lue and K three are the same person man.”. Then I heard a gun fire followed by that man screaming in agony, she then said, “My apologize again, like I would trust a common man over my sister. Tell me, where are you right now?”. I told her in a rude voice, “I’m not telling you, I’m not coming with you clones, I’m not living with you clones, I want nothing to do with any of you. So shut it.”. She replied back, “You are foolish to...”, I then hang up the phone.

My stress was getting to a new high, I couldn’t stand them, I just want them out of my life. A minute later, “Chony” was calling back. I simple reject and put them on the block list. I just realized that I endangered their lives but then I also realize that Chony is scared of me and tried to expose me but I don’t know what to do. I kinda have lost all my friends, most are dead and the rest are terrified of me. the only one is Grang which I hope I can save.

I took a little nap then realize that I was sleeping, I woke up, looked at the phone quickly, it was “11:45 PM”. Fifth-teen minutes. I started to prepare, got my blades ready, and made my way to Radius Center.

As I reach to the grand floor of the roundabout, I looked around, the screens were on so were the street lights. One of the monitors had a digital clock displaying, “12:02 AM”. I saw a human sized bag hanging high on top of the building. Could it be, Grang? I approach it, but then a shadowing figure came out of the right side street that the bag was hanging from. As the light illuminated the figure, it was Stafaker, holding his hands behind his back.

I stiffen my blades, said in a tone of victorious confidence, “Whoa there, I don’t think you want to act on your instincts there yet K three.”. Annoyed, I loosen, then asked, “What do you want Stafaker? You still want me well that not gonna happen, you can’t catch me and you can’t find me without luring me to your little set up.”.

Stafaker smirked, “I don’t think you understand the situation you are in right now. As of right now, the whole world knows the horrors that have pledge these corrupted lands. Through streaming and photos, powered by the internet.”. He continues with a grand speech of movement, “Everyone knows the virus that killed the farm animals, everyone knows the K clones existence, everyone knows the existence of tested human subjects that gained monstrous traits, destroying their humanity. As we speak, the NO three o six, the NO three o seven and the NO four o eight are being raided and recorded by the Canadian international defense forces. The world are agreeing with non-US corporations to align to create a one world nation, making the US history, joining North Korea, Japan, and Germany.”.

He cleared his throat then continued, “As you may know, I sorrow over my past for having been pawns to the brutes of warlords. They tho have tried to strip of my humanity.”. He took off his shirt, revealing his body infused with light brown rocks, perking out sharply. It explains the bulk of his torso before and the rocky fists. He continued. “But I have took the liberty to inform the public and gain your trust. Along with my team and your team, with the power of transportation, with the power of the internet and with the power of recording, nothing can blind us. The new world is here!”. Then he stares at me and claim, “And as you, K three should know that this entire speech is being broadcasting with the power of cameras for all around the world to see, including the agencies of justice. I show you, your life history, to the global eyes.” Then he opened his hands and a swarm of old drones with a flag of each country expect the US of the world fly with the sky. Then each monitor turn with NO-306 pictures of me, from my fetus stage all the way to my escape. From my Technovania pictures, to an image of Reba’s corpse. From camera shots of me covering my face at Andrew’s house to the police snapshots at the outside neighbourhood.

I drop to my knees shaken in embarrassment, fear, surprise and depression. I felt like I just died but my heart was pounding, my fingers were weak, I breathed deeply, and tears was dripping from my face.

I tried to speak, trying to hold myself, but I couldn’t. I burst out sobbing. My whole past just came to the present like a bomb and now made a crater on my future. I couldn’t not think at all. I felt like I lost everything at this point, Grang was the only one I knew but for all I knew, he was already dead.

He laughed, then announced, “Now look here you little shit. Your butcher friend is hanging on a six story fall, you have two choices, run away and have him drop to his doom, or surrender to me at my hands and he will live. You got two minutes, I’ll check what the world thinks while you delve into your polluted thoughts.”.

My sobbing became wimping, Greng was the only thing I had left that meant anything to me, if I free him, I have nothing left to look forward too. My knives, my knives, I did not know what to do with them.

I heard Stafaker yell in anger, “What!? Ninety eight percent dislike.”. He kept on reading the stream on his phone, “You are a piece of shit. How could you just make a person break like that Soko Guy? She kill people you idiot. Whats this? Throw sausages for K three? What? I think K three is human Soko Guy, or at least, more human than you.”. My whimpering ended, Stafaker fits in rage and shout to the sky, around facing the tip of the buildings, “I have exposed a killer, a government secret abomination, and you dare call me not human? Look, we must surpass our past biases and look at the world globally, for that we can live in the ideal Earth, an Earth where we weed out the, malevolence.”.

My sadness transformed into rage, looking down, I mumbled, “You don’t realize the consequences of your actions do you?”. Stafaker said, “Is that a threat? Sub-human?”. I mumbled further, “You think you can just fuck me over like that and people will just accept that because they follow you on your own fucking stream?”. Stafaker simply said, “I am the truth bringer for the people, you are just a failed science experiment.”. My fury transfer to my grasp of my knives, I shouted the loudest I have ever had, “I’ll kill you!”. I right slashed his chest, he backed off, yelling back “Fuck off.”. Then the bag’s hook blow up, having Grang start plummeting to the ground. A stream of terror flow through my stomach and I quickly burst to catch Grang, but Stafaker tripped me, my face fall flat on the concrete. I look forward and see the bag dropped to the ground. I prolonged a shout, “No!”.

Stafaker yelled, “Stop cheering for K three you... Look, mods, ban all the old wayers.” Old wayers? This mother fucker is just making dumb, demonizing words like a child. I got up and left slashed his phone in two. Stafaker yelled, “You just cut off the stream!”.

I didn’t respond. I kept on hacking and slashing, but he was parrying my attacks like I had noodle arms, then he left hook my face, it stings but I didn’t care, I jumped, both knives reversed on my hands, edge in. Stafaker palmed my stomach, stopping its motion while the rest of my body whip lashed.

I skipped a breath, then he plummet my back to the floor, he presses so hard on my chest that breathing was a struggle, I went to for the right stab in the face but he back fist my hand, throwing off my knife.

I right hook his face but it wasn’t too strong, he then got up, I get up as well but while I lifted myself from the left hand behind the floor, he stomped my right knee, breaking my balance.

He yelled, “Stay down!”. My angry was all that was there, I tried to get up once more, he grabbed my two arms, had his back against facing my back and jumped, moving me to the bottom and slammed the floor with his weight pressing me to the floor. The earthly texture was nearly bone breaking. I howl in agony I never felt before. He kept pressing, my squirmed like a crazed animal. I did not think, I only felt pain and was fuelled with rage. Shortly after, I regain my train of thought, but Stafaker got off of me, grabbed my neck, starting to choke me while punching me in the face.

After a few punches, he shout, “This is for the future!”. And made hard punch knocking me out of his grasp. I landed on the floor, have lost grasp of my left knife, my face was brutalized and my back was sore, but inside I felt bleak with remnants of anger fleeing away, like I was almost dead but no light of death was coming.

I then felt my head get lifted by Stafaker grabbing and dragging me from the back of my trench coat. He tow me through the road, going to the direction from which he came. I barely saw the bag and see Grang’s silhouette and blood leaking from the bag. I teared up, and didn’t had the strength to open my eyes. Deep down, I greatly apologize for what I have brought to this city.
