Future Shock (Initial Project)

Vol. 3 Chapter 19 - Capitulation

They felt their blood freeze as the sound of triggers being pulled and eventually the reverberating sounds of Rifles being fired in Full-Auto pierced their ears...

"GAAAGH-!" The partially drowned out scream of the practitioner was heard.

Both of them slowly looked up to see several of the soldiers still looking at them but they had their rifles pointed towards the practitioner as he was on the ground profusely bleeding.

"W-What, What are you doing?!" The practitioner yelled.

"...Yeah— That wont work, Old man." One fo the Male Soldiers said, the practitioner's eyes widened in confusion.

"Did you really think we would be stupid!?" He continued before laughing alongside the others.

"Our loyalty, minds, and my Body belong to Director only, he has created us for he is a Resurrected one, he has given us the most fairest of treatment, while you dissuaded every single thing!" A female soldier claimed.

"Kh! Bastards!" The practitioner yelled, raising his staff once more creating a shockwave blasting the group back, as his wounds began to regenerate. "You shall never take over the empire! We shall forever stand!" He yelled, as the surroundings went vibrant once more.

"Uhh... Andrea?" Leo tapped on Andrea's soldier before pointing down the grand staircase behind them, several individuals appearing to be a mix of civilians and soldiers, began to rushing up. They were all being manipulated by the practitioner from afar.

"Christ! You guys keep those guys at bay, we'll handle this dickwad!" Andrea said.

Matthew watched the battle from the display on the monitor. The Practitioner split into three, one held the staff to continue manipulating the civilians, while the other two were staggeringly keeping Leo and Andrea at bay. While the group of soldiers continuously fired upon the rushing concentration of people and foot soldiers.

"Are any units hands free?" He asked Kara.

"Every single individual not of your creation or affiliation have been affected, all of our units are forced to fixate their fire on their own Enemy force."

"The reinforcements?"

"T-This was unconventional warfare, so I decided to call very few, other enforcements are still getting there, but it will take a few minutes." Kara said, it will be just a minute for them to get overrun. There is a limit to how many magazines an infantry soldier can carry.

"F**k...!" He cursed.

"I-I-I'm... sorry Director..." Kara hung Er head down expecting punishment for her orders.

Matthew looked at the screen, he started contemplating what to do until he tried to do something. Matthew walked away from his area and proceeded to walk down the Steps of Command & Control Centre towards the screen ahead,

"Director, Wha-?" Kara abruptly asked, before Matthew raised his hand gesturing her to stop. And continued walking down before eventually reaching the Screen.

"What if I-..." he uttered as he placed his hand onto he screen and stared at the scene being displayed, whilst prepared to utilize his matter manipulation, specifically 'Relay'.

"Director, I don't know what you're doing but-" Sagorski was about to say until Matthew vanished from the spot with a blink of static.
