The Intergalactic Chronicles

The Intergalactic Chronicles:

Long ago, humanity was simple and had an ordinary life until Galactic warp was discovered. This caused humanity to expand through the universes and galaxies beyond their unbelievable imagination. Our story begins with Commander Aryan who has been assigned to quadrant 7-B. The team he had to lead comprised of Jason, Anushka, Anshuman, Shreya, Aashirwad, Rashesh, Yug, Ayushman, Kirti, Onkar, Sanvi and Aditi. The quadrant was assigned by the intergalactic government of Loyola, as soon as technology that was able to make clones appeared, the government of each country fell apart and the United Nations was no more. The quadrant was one of the best of the Loyola government, but with the help of clones they helped the individuals of the quadrant to live forever. Now, the story begins of The Chronicles of 7-B.

Chapter 1:

A man sighed in his chair, as they couldn’t link to the intercom of this planet. He spoke “Squad A, we will be landing in 2 hours on the planet of System A 457.” His teammates nodded. The Squad was comprised by Jason C-137, Anushka D-045, Aashirwad B-0089, Shreya G-090 and the captain was Aryan F-234. They were assigned to investigate the planet as there was a distress signal from Squad BC who had landed 48 hours ago. Aryan spoke “Anushka, could you please give the Intel about the planet we are going to land on.” Anushka nodded and said “Captain this planet is fiftieth planet in this system as well as there have been rumors and encounters of alien life on this planet. But, I am not sure as I believe they are rumors, nothing more.”

The captain of the squad sighed and said “Should we be armed?” Jason spoke “I suppose so, sir. It’s better to be prepared than worried.” Aryan nodded and spoke “Everybody takes the pistols and Jason take the shotgun with you. We are landing.” The ship landed on the jungle like planet. The cargo door opened as all the members departed from the ship onto the foreign planet. Aashirwad spoke in a silent manner “I suggest keeping quiet and moving slowly in order for any primitive creature not to find us, if life is present on the planet.” Shreya scouted with her keen eyes to find any sort of life form in the distance, the five silently moved around the jungle to find the spaceship of Squad BC. Three fell back and stayed behind to keep any extraterrestrials to come into the ship while Aryan and Anushka moved into the shuttle of the ship. The ship was wrecked from the inside if somebody tried to escape from something and not allow the thing to escape this planet. The Intercoms of the ship were damaged to the point of no repair. Anushka spoke “This seems as if the crew was escaping a creature that would destroy the population if it infiltrated our ranks.” Aryan nodded at the statement, until a scream was heard. The two ran out to find Aashirwad pounced on by an unknown creature. It had spikes on its back, a sharp tail like a stingray and a broad wide head. Aryan shot at the creature and it jumped back from the blast. It growled and bared its teeth. Aryan said “Just don’t stand there! Shoot the creature!” The others nodded shooting it but the creature was dodging every move until they were all out of ammo. Shreya gulped and spoke “I have an idea, let’s run!” Everybody nodded and ran while the alien was running after them. The alien then pounced on Anushka and grabbed her by its tail. Aashirwad screamed “ANUSHKA!” Shreya grabbed him and said “She’s gone.” They saw the silhouette of the alien stabbing Anushka in the head by its tail. The four arrived into the ship as the shuttle doors were closing; Aryan spoke “Get ready for take off!” The others nodded until Shreya screamed “It’s at the door, trying to break the shuttle lockdown off!” Jason nodded at the statement and spoke “Let, me take care of this!” He pulled out an advance shotgun VII, and Aashirwad opened the door. Jason shot the alien with the gun many times until the thing screamed in pain and was about to fall off but, took Jason’s head with itself. Leaving the headless body on the ship, the circuits of the ship started sparking. The alien had called its pack and the whole family was destroying the ship one by one. Aryan tightened his hands into fists at the situation and sat into the pilot seat. He bravely said “Shreya, Aashirwad I want you two to get onto the escape pod and leave this wrecked mess.” Aashirwad spoke “Aryan, your being illogical about this. You can come with us or all three of will die with this ship.” Their captain chuckled at the words and spoke “You know what they say the captain dies with its ship.” Aashirwad with hesitation grabs Aryan and throws him and Shreya into the escape pod and closes it shut. Aashirwad speaks his last words “Goodbye, dear friends. Hope to see you again in another life time.” The other man groans at the push while Shreya tries to open the door to have Aashirwad come with them, when the person piloting the ride triggers the button for the pod to be released. Aashirwad sighs as he watches his friends go back into space away from him. He mutters “I’m okay with this. It’s going to be fine.” Aashirwad presses the intercom and repeats his statement again and again “This is Aashirwad B-0089, the crew member of Squad A, crashing onto the planet A 457.” He sighs and reverses the gear and makes the ship fall onto the planet, to extinguish the race of alien on this body.

The space pod of the two remaining members fly through space, Shreya sighs at the circumstances they were in. She speaks “Uh, Captain shouldn’t we find an intergalactic space station to land on.” Aryan groans and replies “I am no captain Shreya for letting most of my crew die. But, you are indeed right.”

Aryan goes over to the communication system on the pod and relays the message to the nearest space station they were going to land on, “Alpha B, This is Captain Aryan F-234 of Squad A, sector five going to land on your station. May we have permission to land?” A voice replies back “Yes, Captain, you may land on the cargo dock of the station, please give all items to the personnel and change into suitable clothes given by the staff. Are you clear?” Aryan talks back “Clear. I have only one crew member.”

The communication system goes offline. Aryan sits back down and speaks “Shreya we will be landing in some few minutes on Alpha B.” Shreya nods and speaks “What is Alpha B?” The man sitting in front of her groans and speaks “Alpha B is the space station in this system. It’s a hospital, recovery area, fuel station and a containment area for one of the most horrible criminals in the galaxy.” Shreya processes the information into her brain as she thinks what type of criminal scum must be in the space station.

Chapter 2:

The escape pod docks onto the cargo bay of the space station, the two get off the pod and meet up with personnel. The personnel speaks “I am Ayushman G-2456, pleasure to meet you. I am going to show your cabins and give you your uniforms. Please, give all possessions to ensure that none are illegal or dangerous.” Aryan replies back “ I have a pocket knife, a pistol with five bullets, prescribed medicine, a backpack and a safety kit while my crew member over here has a dagger, two muff pistols, lipstick and a bag of folders.” Ayushman nods and speaks “Captain Aryan of Squad A of Sector Five, you must meet the our sub-head first with your member.” The two nod and leave their belongings with the personnel.

The two meet up with the Sub-head in the canteen/hospital lobby. Shreya speaks “Greetings, Sir.” The sub-head chuckles and speaks “No need for formalities, cadet. I am the Sub-head of this station. My name is Anshuman D-045.” Aryan nods at the statement and sits down with Shreya in front of his senior. Aryan speaks “Sir, we were attacked by Alien life form on the Planet A 457; Me and Shreya over here are the only remnants of the squad.” Anshuman sighed and spoke “The planet is very dangerous with the life form on it. We have named the aliens as Xenon. They spread by infecting the host and their spawn breaks out from the chest from the host and killing it. The spawn kills everybody and chooses a few to infect.” Shreya’s eyes widens at the procedure of those filthy Xenon. The door leading to the hospital opens and the doctor speaks “Sir, this man was found by a crew, his name is Aashirwad B-0089.” At the name Aryan stands up and looks at the body, it was indeed their team member and the captain smiles and speaks “Sir, this is my team member. Doctor, kindly please cure him and restore him back to health.” The doctor nods and goes back into the theater. Shreya asks “Uh, Anshuman what kind of prisoners do you have on this station?” Aryan groans at the statement. He thinks ‘Why did she have to ask that from all of these questions of hers.’ Anshuman grimly speaks “We keep two prisoners only the worst duo. It’s a Jason and a Yug.” Shreya tilts her head in confusion while Aryan comes close to hear it too. Anshuman sighs and speaks “When the machine to make clones were discovered, it was indefinitely seen that it could make a clone. It could perfectly make clones of animals but they didn’t test humans. So, the Loyola government tried to make clones for the first time of quadrant 7-B. We are all clones of the original people. But, the first batch A-01 went wrong, every single one was evil and the opposite of the original person. For example, the commander of the Chronicles, Aryan A-0 is the original and his clone was more dirty and filthy, behaving rude and like a pirate, but had the combat skills that were better than our commander. But at last all the clones were killed off by the government or the original people, except Jason A-01 and Yug-01.

Aryan asked politely “So, Anshuman how does the Jason A-01 and Yug A-01 look like?” Anshuman gulped and spoke “Remember this, carefully. This Jason is different from others, as He is more bulky and taller in height than regular ones. He has a muscular build and for his weapon is a giant hammer that is made of the most invincible rocks made in the galaxy. It can break anything but its weight is so much that it can only be lifted by the hulk-like figure himself.” The two nod at the information, Anshuman continues on “Yug A-01 is not so special you can say. The Yug wears fancy clothing and has a walking stick that can turn into a taser. It has 50,000 voltage that can kill a human being and any other creature instantly if it’s to the head or heart. He has a fancy for jewels and expensive things. His intellectuality is far more advanced than any other Yug, which scares us the most.” Then they heard a blood gurgling scream from the theater. The three and four guards that are all Kirti clones go with them into the operation theater. To find Aashirwad’s chest open and the nurse lying lifeless on the ground. The doctor being killed by a Xenon. Anshuman screamed “He had one of the spawn in them, KILL IT!” The four armed guards start shooting as the Xenon pounces one of them as a scream is heard and stabs another guard with its tail. Anshuman speaks “Follow me you two.” Our two characters run after Anshuman as the Xenon kills the remaining two. It breaks the door and gets onto a table on the canteen. The three are hiding under the same table, Anshuman softly speaks “Don’t move or speak.” He goes towards his Walkie-Talkie and whispers “Come in. Squad B and C of sector 8, abort your duties and come into the canteen now. With taser sticks and guns ready to use. There is a Xenon breach in. I repeat there is a Xenon breach in.” The Xenon throws the table and the three run towards the door as the soldiers enter in when the Xenon stabs Shreya with its tail and the woman screams in pain. Aryan screams “We have to help her!” Anshuman says “No time for that!” Aryan jumps at the Xenon as it turns around chomps onto Aryan’s arm. A soldier screams “FIRE!” A series of bullets are shot at the Xenon and it rips off the arm of the captain and kicks him towards the soldiers. Aryan screams in pain, Anshuman sees the Xenon being dealt with as the alien is blown to pieces by the soldiers. The soldiers resume fire and go into the theater to burn the bodies and throw them into space. Anshuman takes Aryan to the medical bay to stop his bleeding as Aryan screams and moans in pain. The doctors of the station rush in to the emergency room and take away Aryan F-234 from Anshuman and to perform surgery on him. Anshuman sighs as he sits down on the seat near the room and then an alarm goes off which is black in color.

Chapter 3:

Anshuman’s eyes widen at the alarm and speaks in his walkie-talkie “All soldiers go into Alpha Containment Bay, a volunteer has been killed! All soldiers with level 8 and higher permission go as quickly as possible! I repeat move your butts as fast as you can!” The walkie-talkie goes off and Anshuman rushes towards the bay. It was the bay where Yug A-01 and Jason A-01 were kept if they came out then all hell would be let loose. The soldiers arrive to the containment door of the cell which was made of diamond, one of the strongest rocks, titanium, steel and Tungsten. The door begins to creak as soldiers ready with their arms of weapon, while people with poles that are really tasers ready to electrocute the criminals. The door opens as bodies drop from the doors; it was the cleaning crew which was supposed to clean the cell with the help of Alpha Task Force X. But, the Task Force and the cleaning crew were all lifeless. The villainous Yug had entered as he smiled at the soldiers and spoke “Thank you, ladies and gentlemen for waiting for me. So, what’s new?” All soldiers aim the gun at Yug, the villainous figure’s smile goes down and he speaks “Have you met my acquaintance, Jason A-01?” A bulky figure appears behind Yug and pushes him aside and the figure speaks “I’M GONNA SMASH YOU!” The easily controllable Jason smashes the first row of the soldiers with his gigantic hammer. Anshuman arrives to witness this and thinks ‘Run Anshuman! Run!’ The sub-head ran away from the battle locking the gates and trapping the soldiers with the duo. Jason roars at them as saliva drips from his mouth, he then kicks the second row and throwing people as ragdolls as the soldiers try to shoot him. He goes on a rampage and destroys the whole army. Yug whistles for him to stop and hums a tune while walking across the scattered bodies and speaks “My friend would you break this puny door, please?” Jason speaks “Anything for you Yug!” Jason smashes the door with his body and the door falls crashing in. Yug speaks “Now let’s find the Sergeant of this station and exterminate him and his revolting pests.” The alarm for containment breach goes off as Yug throws his walking cane at the alarm and the cane drops onto the floor shutting down the annoying alarm. He picks his stick come and slowly walks with Jason, they stop as they hear “This is Sergeant Rashesh H-0900 speaking, surrender yourself and you will go back unharmed.” produced by the communication link throughout the station. Yug chuckles at the statement and replies “Sergeant we are coming for you, hide if you can but you can’t run.” They find the control panel of the station closed and locked to protect the Sergeant. Yug coughs and Jason tries to break open the door but, gets electrocuted by the door. The muscular body was about to hit the door again with his hammer when Yug shows his hand to stop and speaks “You should always use wits against brawn.” Yug enters the electrical room nearby, guards charge at him as he lifts the cane to the bottom and presses a switch. That turns the cane into a taser, Yug then hits each of the guards to the head killing the personnel. Yug then turns off the power for that room and speaks “Now try it my friend.” Jason then bust opens the door to be met by personnel trying to stop when he smashes all of them into the wall. A robot in the room tries to punch Yug but has his arm ripped off and smashed into pieces by Jason. Sergeant Rashesh falls in fear and scoots back but his back is met with a wall. Yug kneels down in front of the sergeant and speaks “You should have listened to us when you met us as a cadet.” Rashesh gulps and closes his eyes in fear. Yug then hits the sergeant into the head with his taser walking stick and turns it off. He walks back with his acquaintance into the canteen of the station as every person on the station looks in fear as they enter. All the personnel, patients and other staff members were present as they were brought here for protection. Aryan F-234 pauses with fear; he then widens his eyes as Anshuman charges at the villainous Yug. The diabolical clone hits Anshuman with his cane, Jason is amused at the sight and laughs at the Sub-head. Anshuman groans and then kicks Yug in the stomach as every other member of the station remains silent and doesn’t move. Anshuman grabs the throat but is thrown back onto the ground. Yug speaks “Your, sergeant is dead. Your Sub-head a fat little weakling who will be thrown into the vacuum of space.” Jason grabs Anshuman and throws him into the glass and the glass shatters and Anshuman dies in space. The system of the station quickly shuts that wall with metal and refuels the station with oxygen. Yug chuckles and speaks “Who has a problem with my rule?” Everybody looks at each other and kneels down before Yug and bows down. Yug chuckles and sees Aryan F-234, he speaks “The Aryan without a left arm, come here.” Aryan sighs and comes up and salutes Yug with his right arm. Yug speaks “Jason, give the robotic arm to me.” Jason nods giving away the arm of the robot he destroyed. Yug then places the arm into the place of the missing arm of Aryan and with a drill and a screwdriver nearby he fixes it in place. Aryan knew that the two were the enemy but he would be dead if he revolted, He lied “Thank you sir, for giving me a new arm.” Yug spoke “Now soldier, you are forever in debt to me.” Aryan saluted and went back to his spot. Yug spoke “You all are under my control; whoever revolts against me will be executed.” Some few soldiers gulped and Yug spoke “Have some rest tomorrow is a big day.”

Aryan went back to his dorm and sighs and falls asleep. This might his last time having a good rest.

Chapter 4:

Deep into galactic space is a gigantic army which is controlled by the Loyola government. The commander of the ship, which is named as the ‘Chronicles’, is Aryan A-0, the original Aryan. The commander sighs as he awaits his major to return checking the tabs on Squad CD and BA. His Major Sanvi A-0, an original herself, speaks “Commander, we have lost all connections to station Alpha B of System A. It appears that the Sub-head Anshuman D-045 is deceased and his body is floating in space. Squad BA which we sent to contact the station has been exploded by the blasters of the floating station. I presume that Yug A-01 and Jason A-01 have escaped and presumably taken over the station.” Aryan sighs and speaks “This is a highly dangerous situation and concern. Sent an evacuations signal for all squads, stations in System A, while that sent a message to all the original individuals to not attack alone. Also, send a message to director Aashima ma’am of Loyola government as soon as possible for the containment breach.” Sanvi nods and leaves Aryan alone. Aryan mutters to himself “A party with guns and lasers for a welcome party for the others. It’s going to be too good.” Aryan speaks to one of his cadets and speaks “Cancel all my meetings and ready A-01 X.”

While at the space station, the sun of the system appears shining brightly at the station. All of the people on board get ready as their new commander call them for morning training. With fear, they all meet Yug and Jason as Yug grins while Jason is snoring while standing. Yug then hits Jason on his knees with his cane. Jason wakes up, wiping his drool and stands firm. Yug speaks “Soldiers, I request all of you to go and train yourself in training room Eagle.” Every Soldier nods but Yug speaks “Aryan F-234 and Beta Task Force XII standby.” Our protagonist gulps and the force team just gives emotionless faces. Yug speaks “Force team, go with Jason with all your best weapons and equipment to the Chronicles ship and take over and bring the head of your old Commander Aryan A-0, or the original people call those scumbags.” The Task Force sweats at the mention of the name, they knew what would happen to them, either instant death or torture to the brink of death. The team nodded and gulped, as they left with Jason. Jason smiles with happiness to destroy and smash stuff, as they leave Aryan asks “Uh Sir, What will I do?” Yug chuckles and speaks “No, need formalities friend. You will be training with me to be the killing machine of our army and call me YX.” Aryan gulped and nodded and left with the evil mastermind.

On the Chronicles ship, Aryan sighs at the situation until a banging sound is heard. He looks at the door in front of him made out of pure steel and tungsten and his soldiers get ready to shoot. Some few stand in front until the door is broken into their faces. Aryan muttered under his breath “Jason A-01.” The muscular figure screamed in rage and threw the soldiers as ragdolls as the Task Force shot many and deflected some few. Aryan gritted his teeth and grabbed his Light Saber and with a deflecting shield, with a blaster in his pocket, jumps off the Commander’s panel and slices the gigantic mammal. As Jason tries to hit Aryan with his heavy hammer, the commander dodges the hits and jumps onto the hammer running towards the face of the enormous creature and kicks Jason in the face and lands neatly on the ground. Jason then shouts in rage and hits Aryan but the shield protects the commander and the force cracks the floor underneath. Aryan dodges the next hit and dashes away from the beast. Jason then smashes his hammer onto the head of Aryan which makes the commander fall far away. Sanvi rushes to his aid and takes him into his lab while the soldiers try to buy some time. Sanvi wraps bandages around the head and then Aryan speaks “*cough* Put it online.” Sanvi nods as she does the task as quick as possible and puts her commander into the machine. Meanwhile, outside Jason wrecks the whole place until a voice is heard “Why don’t you take somebody your on size.” Jason looks back to find the owner of that voice when his punched by a large metal fist. “Jason A-01, meet A-01X, it’s a gigantic suit made to battle you.” Aryan says, Jason groans and then gets up and tries to hit it with his hammer. But the hammer is easily held by Aryan; Aryan hits Jason in the guts and then kicks him back. Jason stands up in rage and tries to hit Aryan again but the suit of armor punches the mammal’s arm and the mighty beast lets go of the hammer. Aryan slams a punch onto the jaw of Jason as the enormous person roars in pains, and kicks the suit in the face, but it doesn’t affect anything. The commander then punches the gigantic clone in the face with the suit of armor and kicks him the gut. Jason groaned in pain and tried to hit the suit but was punched back, Jason with all his rage ripped apart the suit’s left arm. A frown and a sign of worry appeared on the face of the commander. Aryan spoke “I will not play your games, you fool!” Aryan launched missiles at Jason while the thick skulled beast tries to deflect them but fails. Aryan punches him in the face as a tooth pops out. Jason spits out and punches the head of the suit. Jason grins as he hears a cracking sound. Aryan then punches him in the chest, breaking two ribs of the clone. The commander smiles and with no mercy, kicks him in the chest and throws him like a ragdoll into a chamber. The armor flies ups with its propeller’s and smashes onto the body lying on the ground. The commander looks pleased with the sight and speaks to his staff “Open the gasoline and kerosene tanks.” As soon as the word goes out, Kerosene and gasoline starts pouring out from the walls. Aryan gets out of the armor and mocks the man below it. Aryan goes back towards the door and comes out of the chamber filled with petrol. But as the door closes Jason throws the broken suit of armor and charges at the closing door but hits his face on it as it closes shut. Aryan speaks “Eject the chamber from the station now.” Sanvi nods and goes to eject the chamber from her control panel. Aryan grips his tie and tightens it and speaks “Get ready for your punishment as nobody who is insubordinate tries to take over my ship, Beta Task Force XII.” The remaining members with injuries gulp and nod with fear. The chamber containing Jason A-01 gets ejected and it drifts off into space with the petroleum present inside it. Jason sits there in pain and agony and then receives a message from the broken down suit of armor. A screen appears and it’s Commander Aryan and he speaks “Hello, Jason A-01, you have been ejected into space. How’s the trip? .Well see the present I have for you in the suit.” Jason looks curiously and goes over to the suit to find it will self destruct in ten seconds. Jason worries with fear and tries to stop the count. He screams with rage as it counts down. He screams as it goes to zero. The chamber explodes in space, as the particles form into the matter present in pitch black space. While smiling, the commander speaks “Jason A-01 is no more, but for your punishment is coming now.” The members gulp, Aryan beats a member to death. The others gulp at the sight, Aryan walks back and forth and speaks “Tell me about the station and Yug A-01’s plans.” The members gulp in fear, Aryan speaks “Not talking then. Now just have to kill you all now.” He then shoots two members straight in the head, as one still remains unharmed. The last remaining member stutters “Y-Yug p-plans to t-ake over the g-government as he is t-training everybody on t-the station. He sent my s-squad and J-Jason to *gulp* k-kill you.” Aryan chuckles and speaks “Thanks for the information. Good Night, Forever.” He then shoots the last member in the heart. The commander speaks “Everybody will stay here while I, myself, will gather all the original people.” Everybody nods and clean the mess.

Chapter 5:

At the space station, vigorous training began of Aryan F-234. Yug intended to make him an emotionless killing machine. The body of Aryan was sore with all the training, until all the pain worked off. This was his last day training and he would battle Yug A-01. The captain moved around the chamber while the self proclaimed commander stood in place. Aryan charged at the villainous man and kicked him in the gut, dodging the punch thrown at him. Yug tried to punch his student but was kicked back and thrown into a wall. Yug groaned and then punched his student in the face causing Aryan to fall backwards. The clone then gets up and punches his mentor in the face and kicks him in the shoulder and punches him into the wall. Aryan then jumps at the head of Yug and grabs hold onto it and kicks the evil mastermind in the back making him fall down. Yug smiles and gets up and speaks “You are ready now. Let’s see what the lousy soldiers have been doing.” Aryan nods and follows but Yug turns around and speaks “I think you need a new name. What about Agent R.” Aryan nods and speaks “So, Sir why was your name YX.” Yug chuckles and speaks “I am YX as I was Project YX. They tried to mix Aryan, Anushka and Aashirwad DNA into clone of Yug. The others were projects themselves. There was never an evil batch to begin with. We the A-01 were all failed experiments. Like for example, Aryan A-01 who is deceased was Project XZ and they wanted to mix Yug, Anshuman and Jason DNA. In order to make an insane and savage Aryan who is both ruthless and smart. Well it didn’t turn out well. Aryan A-01 was like a pirate, sly like a fox and insane.” Aryan F-234, now renamed as, Agent R nodded and went along with the plan with the mastermind. Yug and Agent R arrive in the board meeting room with the captains of all the teams. Yug speaks as the others shiver in their seat, “Does anybody have any Intel on the idiot and Beta Task Force XII.” Nobody speaks up and Yug sighs in frustration until he smashes a soldier onto the table. The others stand up while Agent R is on standby. Yug looks at the fallen soldier; he mutters “Incompetent.” The soldier who was going to kill him was dead. Agent R looks at the dead body with some emotion until Yug snaps his finger and the emotionless killing machine goes into a stiff trance. Yug smiles at the work he has done to make the weak captain into Agent R.

Whilst with Commander Aryan, Aryan finds the location of Anshuman A-0 or the original. Aryan with a few armed guards enters an old, broken down ship. Some few noises are heard and Aryan speaks “Split up and find Anshuman!” They nod and go in separate ways. Aryan starts to roam to bump into Anshuman. Aryan speaks “Anshuman, how are you? It’s been a long time since we made the...” But Aryan is cut off by men with spears colored in white charging at them. Aryan then pulls out his light saber and cuts of the head of the first row. Aryan speaks “So, what did you do to make this tantriks angry!!” As the two old friends fight off and kill some few of the tantriks, Anshuman says “I, disrespected their goddess and took her golden necklace embedded with emeralds.” Aryan sighed and cut off another head, and speaks “Really, again with the old petty thief routine. You’re supposed to go big, steal the goddess statue and slaughter some few and steal some loot.” Anshuman nods at the advice and slices of the arms of the black magic users. Aryan shouted “There are too many of them!” The armed soldiers pop out of nowhere and shield the two of them while killing some tantriks. Aryan spoke “Sanvi, get us out of here.” through his walkie-talkie. On the other side, Sanvi nodded and brought all of them back to the ship. Anshuman gasped in amazement and spoke “The ship has been developed since the last time I saw it!” Aryan said “We were disbanded by Loyola itself, remember.” Anshuman spoke happily “She’s a beauty and enormous. I remember when I first saw her and called her a piece of junk when we were 25. It was around 2031.” Aryan nodded and spoke “I will be going out to get the others while you stay put here.” Anshuman nodded and Aryan spoke “Sanvi teleport me to Alcatraz 2.0 prison in System C.” Sanvi nodded and dialed the coordinates and Aryan was teleported into the better version of the famous facility. Aryan entered the prison and guards greeted him. Aryan spoke “Nice to see you after a long time, Major Ronit.” Ronit chuckled and shook his hands with the commander and spoke “You too, Commander. You wanted to meet the two prisoners, A-34567 and A-34569.” Aryan nodded and went with Ronit while the chubby major and spoke “Alcatraz 2.0 is the best prison in the galaxy and contains dangerous criminals. The two your meeting have been caught for pick pocketing, petty thefts and hacking the government of Sai Galactic Federation where my sister is the head and she’s not too happy about it.” Aryan nodded and met up with his old teammates, one’s insane and delusional while the other is cheerful and sketch artist. Aryan groaned and spoke “Really, Aditi and Anushka you had to get yourselves in trouble.” Anushka giggled while Aditi was not a tad bit amused and she spoke “So, Idiot are you going to get us a bail or not!” Anushka just chuckled to herself. Aryan spoke “Fine, I am here to get your butts from jail in a legal way. But, this is a last time. You should be lucky that the caretaker and head is my friend. So no pick pocketing and petty thefts.” Aditi and Anushka nodded while Aryan paid for the bail. Aditi and Anushka got out and changed into their clothing. Aryan looked at their clothing and mocked at them “Really, leather clothes and a gothic style you two.” Aditi stopped and spoke “Shut your mouth, grumpy old man.” Aryan replied back “If dare to insult me again, I will sue you. It will be the biggest which nobody in the galaxy will be able to pay for.” Aditi just shrugged and went back to the warp pad, while Anushka spoke “Let’s go! I choose you Aryan!” Aryan face palmed and spoke “Get onto the warp pad Anushka we are leaving.” Aryan spoke towards Ronit, “Thanks, Major.” Ronit nodded and replied back “No problem helping a friend!” The three stand on the pad and teleport into the ship. Aryan groaned as he saw the mess that Aditi and Anushka would create in the ship. Aryan just muttered to himself that “It’s just for a week. Just for a week and their bodies will be off this ship.” He groaned and drank a mug of beer to calm himself. Aryan walked off and snapped his finger was teleported. The planet that the commander had teleported to was taken over by the machines. Aryan had come here to find Aashirwad; the commander strolled over the barren land. Out of nowhere, a sentinel had appeared, but in surprise Aryan sliced the robot into two pieces. Aryan entered a base of the machines to find a group of humans scavenging the place of tech and guns while destroying control panels. They were worried and were trying to find something useful. Aryan smirks and speaks “Are you trying to find this?” holding the hydrogen bomb in his hand. The group aims their guns at Aryan when Aashirwad tells to hold back their bullets and speaks “Is that you, Aryan?” Aryan nods and smashes the decoy bomb in his hands. Sentinels start appearing in the base and then Aryan spoke “I brought reinforcements.” As soldiers of the commander teleport into the base and shoot down every sentinel in the base. Aryan speaks “I will be taking your leader for awhile. My soldiers shall stay here and take care of you all while your captain is gone.” Aashirwad gets teleported back with Aryan to the ship. Sanvi shows Aashirwad around the updated ship. The commander mutters “Six are here, only seven more to go.”

Chapter 6:

The commander sprang back into the warp pad, he was teleported to Planet ‘N’ or formerly known as Planet 4567 of System D. The 35 year old commander ventured out to find one of his companions, Jason. The strong willed, enormous. But if you got to know him, he was a softy and was a comedian. Aryan found himself in front of a replica of the Colosseum. In the middle of it all was a giant and the warrior against the giant was Jason. The crowd cheered and went wild. The crowd primarily consisted of clones of Nitesh. Nitesh, was the fast and strong-willed person of the academy center, where they were taught. Every single member of the 7-B quadrant was from the same batch as well as Nitesh. His wits lead to him and his clones to take over this barren planet. Aryan charged into battle shooting the giant’s legs to distract it away from his companion. Jason smiled at who had arrived and soon the two started to shoot the giant. The blasts didn’t kill the giant but it surely did make it immobile. The two’s ammo had depleted and then the two signaled each other in sign language. Jason climbed up the walls to the crowd and then leapt onto the waist of the giant while the commander distracted the beast. Jason then proceeded to climb the whole body and then did a flip in order to stand on the giant. But before that Jason activated his anti-gravity boots. The muscular companion ran up the body of the giant, Aryan smirked and grabbed the hammer of the deceased monster and threw it to Jason. Jason grabbed it and jumped in the air and smashed the giant on its head with the hammer. It ended the giant and cracked its skull. The crowd grumbled in annoyance except some few. Jason got down, but at the last moment the soldiers of the planet, burst through the gates ready to capture the two. Jason gritted his teeth and was about to smash them with the hammer, when out of nowhere a zero-gravity grenade was thrown and the troop of soldiers flew high into the sky. They were saved by Rashesh and Ayushman. The four ran out of the Colosseum and while running Aryan spoke “So, where were you two!” Rashesh replied “This guy wanted some McDonald’s. So, we stopped by!” Ayushman grumbled and then they warped back to the Chronicles Ship.

The three, relaxed at the ship as Aryan was ready to retrieve the remaining ones in outer space, Onkar and Kirti. He had already sent Sanvi, Anshuman and Aditi to find the whereabouts of their hungry teammate Yug. As, the whole team knew Yug would definitely do a stupid move and will try to be a hero and go to Yug A-01 to kill the evil mastermind. Aryan warped to Athena Incorporations. He went to an office room and pushed the door and spoke “Having fun doing taxes and stupid paperwork?” Onkar groaned and looked at Aryan while frowning. The commander grinned and Kirti shouted in frustration “I will wipe that smug look from your face! What are you here for?” Aryan spoke “Well, I thought that maybe you two would like to go for a space adventure?” Onkar spoke “Really? We can’t the Boss has made it strict.” The commander added “You could kick some few butts as well as Director Aashima ma’am has called for this mission.” Kirti lifted her eyebrow and Onkar whispered to her something and she spoke “We are both in!” The two’s Boss had appeared, it was Angela Athaide. Aryan grinned and spoke “Well, Angela thanks for allowing me to take the two.” Angela nodded and spoke “Anything for a friend. By the way they look like zombies. But, it’s okay.” Aryan nodded and spoke “You want to come for the adventure?” Angela replied “Nah, I was never good of a fighter in the academy. I was an average person, nothing special. I was a nerd but I am a geek now.” Aryan chuckled and left with the two.

Meanwhile, No Luck with Anshuman, Aditi and Sanvi—

Sanvi groaned and exclaimed “REALLY! You had to destroy the ship’s engine. Luckily it’s not an important one or it would get you into a lot of trouble with the Commander!” Anshuman spoke “Hey! I didn’t cause any damage to it, Aditi over here spilled peanut butter and jelly on the control panel.”

Aditi spoke “Shut your mouth and behave like adults! I’m calling an Uber.” Aditi typed some few buttons on her Iphone XIX and the taxi arrived in some few minutes.

The trio sat in the cab and then the driver asked “Where do you wanna go?” Sanvi spoke “The voice seems familiar, is that you Shreya!” Shreya looked back at them to realize it was her old teammates. Aditi spoke “ Going to live your dream as a producer didn’t live long huh.” Shreya spoke “Nope. What about you three?” Anshuman spoke “Actually we were trying to find Yug, that’s why we stopped at Handkerchief Town. You Know he was addicted on chewing stuff especially napkins. We forgot about you but you must come. These are the direct orders of Director Aashima ma’am.”

Shreya spoke “Hmm. If I get some tips and get paid then.” Sanvi sighed and spoke “Take us to Sector A008 in System C which is near the Chronicles. Discuss this with the Commander.”

Shreya spoke “Okay let’s go. I’m shifting the gear to hyper mode. Hold onto your butts!”

The cab/ship drifted at the speed of light, reaching in a matter of few seconds at their destination. The Ship docked into the Chronicles. The four went up the elevator and arrived to the top floor. Aryan looked at Shreya for a glance moment and went back discussing with a cadet about the plans of the war. Aryan glanced back and saw the whole team back together. Everybody was present except one person, and they knew if they couldn’t find him then something would go wrong for them or him.

Chapter 7:

On the other side of the system, a Quin jet zoomed through space, speeding up faster and dispersing its drones. This Jet would be landing at its destination soon. The Space Shuttle or now known as Base A of Yug A-001. The person steering this vehicle was Yug A-00 or else the original one. The thirty five year old launched his missiles onto the shuttle. On impact the glass cracked of the shuttle. Yug swiped his sweat and realized it would be tough to destroy the base.

Inside, the shuttle-

Every soldier was doing their own work when the whole base shook for a good five minutes. They look terrified as the glass cracked. A shout came from behind, a gruff one. Agent R spoke “GET BACK TO WORK, MAGGOTS!” His appearance had changed since; the guy was a cyborg now. Agent R grabbed a clone in a lab coat and threw him across the room and spoke with venom laced in his voice “If you stop working like him then you’ll end up like the guy!” The others gulped and ran hurriedly to finish their work quicker. A shadowy figure appeared behind Agent R, it was YX (Yug A-01 or Evil Yug). The man gave a devilish grin to Agent R and spoke “R, force the buffoon to enter the shuttle. “ The Agent looked at his senior and nodded.

With Yug,

The intercom of his ship was turned on; it was Anshuman on the line. Anshuman spoke “Yug, I know you’re near the shuttle. Turn around now.” Yug groaned and spoke “I can deal with it, okay. I’m not a child.” Anshuman replied back in a loud tone “You’re not doing anybody a favor. You’ll get yourself killed.” Yug smashed the intercom and fired more missiles when he realized there was no chance of the glass breaking. The drones attached themselves back to the ship. Yug gritted his teeth. He equipped his armor and grabbed two cyber pistols and a sword made out of the strongest metal on Mars. He docked the ship in the docking area and then used his anti-gravity boots to jump into the vents.

YX looked amused and saw the footage of Yug; He spoke in the microphone “The Bird has landed, R. Finish him.” The other man on the intercom nodded. Yug carefully ventured through the air vents and looked down to find Agent R and two other guards near the airlock door. Yug breaks down the vents and falls on top of the guards, he kills them with his blasters and starts firing at Agent R. The cyborg in front of him responds with bullets. Yug then aims at the shoulder of the Agent and he is disarmed.

Yug smirks but then he is suddenly knocked unconscious. He suddenly wakes up, strapped to a chair. A man in a suit gives a devilish grin towards him. Yug grits his teeth and speaks with venom “YX, I will kill you soon. You can’t keep me here for long.” The man smiles and speaks “I know. But, let’s get to the fun part. Let’s first peel off your nails.” Yug’s face became a frown and he started screaming in pain as slowly one by one, the mastermind ripped his nails. After an hour or so, the torture ended. Yug’s nails were peeled off and a scar on his chest. Yug knew his nails would grow back in a year. He was not being monitored anymore. Yug ripped the straps and threw the chair at the door. The door shattered on impact and Yug slowly walked through. He checked his surroundings. But to his surprise, he was punched in the face by YX. Guards appeared from the shadows. Yug gritted his teeth; the soldiers were ready to kill him. But, YX tried to punch him in the gut, but he dodged it and kicked the man in the chest. The two fought each other, but the corrupted clone got the upper hand and smashed the other into a door. YX spoke “You should have listened to your comrades. I am not a person to be messes with, but I’m happy to end your pathetic life, right here.” YX pressed a button; Yug’s face was ridden with fear. He was standing behind the airlock. The door opened as the vacuum of space opened, YX smiled and whispered into Yug’s ear “Ayushman Bhava.” The man pushed the other into space; he shut the airlock and went away with the guards to monitor his slaves. Yug lying in space, oxygen lacking from his breath, frowned at his slow and painful demise. His life was culminated.

In the Chronicles, everybody was discussing with each other on one topic, how to finish or prevent the upcoming war. They all knew it was inevitable but, maybe there might be a slim chance to prevent it. The large LED screen in the ship turned on automatically, connecting with the intercom. A menacing figure stood in front of them, Yug A-001 or YX. Aryan gritted his teeth and spoke “So, YX have you come to discuss or just sit there looking menacing.” The man on the screen scowled and spoke “Well, Commander Aryan. I have come to speak with you about the so called War.” Everybody looked intently at the screen, the cadets on board sweated. The mastermind continued “The war will be the most devastating one in Loyola Gov. History. You killed Jason A-001.” Aryan smirked and spoke “Scared? Hope not, because you have everything coming towards you.” The other man chuckled and spoke “You killed just a mere pawn in my game. It’s chess, my friend. You’re the black king while I’m the white one. Evil vs. Good, You knocked an elephant from my army.” Aryan replied “The color of someone or their clothing doesn’t matter. Even black which has been represented as evil can show you rainbows and it is the color of hard work!” YX smiled and spoke “It’s your theory. But, speak in a low tone, my friend. Because when you cower in fear and ask for mercy, I shall not give it when I shall make you bleed as how you put pity on the pawn and me, all those years ago!” Sanvi gave a response to the corrupted clone “You will not speak to the commander like that! You are just a mere clone which has gone insane and corrupt!” The villainous man chuckled coldly and spoke “Oh I might have gotten insane and corrupt but it’s your comrade who was stupid enough to try to kill me in my base! Your friend Yug has sadly passed away.” Anshuman sighed in sadness, while the others were shocked to believe it; Aryan clenched his fist and spoke “I wish you very bad luck in the war, my friend.” The man laughed like a jackal and spoke “You too, dear friend.” The intercom turned off automatically and the commander sighed.

Chapter 8:

The ship turned around as everybody mourned the demise of their fallen comrade. Aryan spoke “Activate the warp portal!” A gigantic portal appeared out of nowhere and the ship zoomed into it. The ship warped through it and arrived at System A. Aryan spoke “We’ve arrived, home.” This was their milky way, their home. Sanvi spoke through the intercom, trying to get a signal to home base. They arrived near about 20 meters of their base. It was built on Mars, the largest base of the Loyola Government. Sanvi got relieved that somebody responded and she spoke “Home Base, Do we have permission to land. This is the Chronicles Ship and fleet of army. Ready to dock, the commander is Aryan of the disbanded Quadrant 7-B.” A gruff voice responded saying reportedly “You have permission to dock your ship. Please, get down as quickly as possible while personnel will arrive to take you to the board room.” The ship docked onto the planet, the crew members stepped out as the reformed Quadrant 7-B stepped out and were greeted by a humanoid robot known as ‘Pari’. Pari spoke “Good day, commander” talking mainly towards Aryan “Director Aashima has gone to meet the Director of Sai Galactic Federation.” Aryan nodded and spoke “Give me the details of the position of Alpha B.” Pari nods and takes Aryan to the control room. Aashirwad goes into the training room with Shreya while the rest go off to bed.

The clock struck midnight as everybody slept, when two pairs of eyes awoke from their pretense of slumber, the two bodies tiptoed across the room and got out of it without anybody noticing. There were no guards in the building as this was the most secured base of the Loyola government. The two bodies entered the control room and searched all the files in the database trying to find anything useful to their purposes. A light was turned and the man behind them muttered “Aditi, Anushka what are you two doing here at this time of night.” Aditi and Anushka turned around to see Ayushman who was looking suspiciously at them. The two gulped and they started sweating, Aditi grabbed a ball from her pocket and threw at Ayushman. The ball turned into two sets of steel ropes which made Ayushman fall down. As the thirty four year old man tried to break free the ropes tightened his hands and legs together. The two women started running, Ayushman shouted for them to get caught as he soon realized the two were clones not the real deal as there were bar codes on their necks which only clones had. The lights of the whole base slowly turned on as everybody awoke from the shouts of Ayushman. The two clones started running as fast as possible to reach the docking bay to steal a ship and getaway safely. The two passed the airlock when they got knocked unconscious.

The clone of Aditi woke up faster than Anushka’s clone and looked around the room she was in. It was the T&I chamber. It was known as ‘Torture and Interrogation Chamber’. A glass of water was splashed at her face and she was drenched, in front of her stood Commander Aryan with Aashirwad and Rashesh. The commander smirked and spoke “ You can go down the good route or the bad one.” Aditi’s clone gritted her teeth and spoke with venom “Never!” A devilish grin came to the commander and a scream was heard in the chamber.

The scream awoke Anushka’s clone and she was strapped to a metal chair and in front of her was Ayushman, Shreya and Anshuman. Shreya nicely spoke “Tell us who sent you and where are the real ones.”Anushka’s clone opened her mouth but air only came out and she didn’t say anything. Anshuman cracked his knuckles at this. Shreya spoke “Then, if you want it hard then fine.” She looked at Ayushman and he nodded. He handed her a syringe “These are homemade drugs and after your little vaccine you will sputter all your plans and fall into sleep for about 10 hours.” Anushka’s clone grimaced at that and screamed in pain as Shreya injected her hardly.

The door of the chamber opened to be Aryan and Aashirwad. Shreya looked at the two and said “No luck cracking the other clone?” Aryan responded “Not a bit, I ripped of her fingernails and impaled her both hands and feet with forks but nothing. I left Rashesh to interrogate her and have fun torturing her.” The clone’s vision became blurry as soon as the drug mixed with her blood. Anushka’s clone started talking in a trance. All of the members in the room intently heard what she had to say. The clone muttered “Master YX has sent us in order to get all the files needed to invade the base and take over this government.” She spoke in a robotic voice “Task #1 Infiltrate the Quadrant 7-B and take out the real ones. Task #2 Steal all necessary files and information in a USB. Task #3 Divide the quadrant, make everyone suspicious and infuriated on each other and eliminate each member one by one.” The clone fell unconscious and started snoring. Aashirwad gritted his teeth and said “YX has taken Aditi and Anushka. We have to get a plan to take them back.” Aryan spoke up “I have to give credit to YX; he made a plan which had only 3% of failing. But, Aashirwad we can’t go into the shuttle barging in expecting him to greet us with cookies!” “I have an idea.” All of them turned around to see Pari and she continued “What if, Major Aashirwad go with Task Force XVI and blend in with YX’s mindless clones and get back Magistrate Aditi and Anushka back. But, we keep the two clones here for Sub-Magistrate Rashesh to take care of.” Everybody nodded and left to do their respective roles.

In Chamber AB, Aryan and Kirti started making Aashirwad look like a clone. Kirti spoke up “Aashirwad you and your soldiers must look like YX’s clones. So, I and Aryan are going to do your Uh, Makeup you can say.” Aashirwad changed into a soldier suit and Aryan applied the brown spray on his hair. Kirti set a button on his suit. The commander then put on the contact lenses which made Aashirwad’s eyes red.

Aashirwad got up and went through the body scan, the button which was set made his skeleton seem as a robot. The task force came in front of Aashirwad and they saluted him. The group followed Aashirwad into a ship and they set off for the shuttle. The commander hoped they would save Aditi and Anushka and would not be eliminated themselves.

He called all the members of Quadrant 7-B and spoke up “From today, your training session starts, I will also train with you all. Some of you had gone to the business industry” looking at Kirti, Onkar and Shreya “Some of you were off the grid and missing.” Looking at most of the crew, “So we begin our Training session.” All of them enter the hyperbolic time chamber and get dressed into gym wear clothes and Aryan informs them “In this chamber, time is very different. If we train for six months then outside it would be 6 hours. We will practice for 2 days time of outside world that means eight years in the chamber’s time.” Some of them groaned.

Chapter 9:

In System A, the ship containing Task Force VI and Aashirwad reach the shuttle, Aashirwad lies through the intercom “This is Aashirwad YX-457, permission to land.” A robotic voice responds through the intercom “Permission granted.” The ship lands and the task force and Major come out and enter into the cafeteria, Aashirwad whispers to them “Act as if we are robots and listen to every order remember, two of you stay with me.” All of them split up while two followed Aashirwad. A voice chuckles behind them and speaks “Major Aashirwad, what’s your report for me?” Aashirwad turns around to come face to face with YX, The major mutters “Sir, no suspicious in System A. The two clones you sent to infiltrate the home base of Loyola are successful in their task.” YX nods while Aashirwad’s sighs in relief but YX speaks again “Here take this card, return it afterwards to me. You must dispose of that Aditi and Anushka which Agent R captured from Alcatraz 2.0 and switching them with the clones.” Aashirwad nodded and relaxed when the mastermind left him. They continued searching the shuttle and found the room. He spoke “Soldiers, stand by.” The two members of the Force stood in the corridor and Aashirwad scanned the card and the door opened.

Aditi and Anushka were chained to the walls, Aashirwad locked the door behind him and spoke “Aditi and Anushka, it’s me.” Aditi gritted her teeth and spoke “CLONE! You shall not fool me!” Aashirwad removed his soldier jacket and whispered “I don’t have a bar code.” Aditi and Anushka realized this was the real deal and Aashirwad freed the two from the chains and put fake handcuffs on them and opened the door. The five continued walking when they were stopped by Agent R, He spoke in a deadly voice “What are you doing with these scumbags, Major.” Aashirwad gulped and spoke in a robotic voice “I have been assigned the task to dispose of these rebels by Master YX.” Agent R looked at Aashirwad as sweat fell from the task force soldiers behind the major. Agent R nodded and left the scene. Aashirwad sighed in relief and went along with the soldiers to find the rest. They found all of the other task force members in the cafeteria waiting for them. All of them whispered to each other and stood up and were going when one of the soldiers knocked over a plate. The sound of metal echoed through the room and all eyes stared at them. One of the mindless clones’ minds clicked and shouted “These are intruders! Imposters!” All guns were taken out and pointed at them, Aashirwad threw a grenade from his pocket and all of them started running. The room exploded and the team ran as fast with Aditi and Anushka. They reached the docking bay when they were surrounded with clones. Aashirwad gave a command and shots were fired, clone after clone dropped down. Aashirwad smirked and broke the handcuffs of Aditi and Anushka and gave them blasters. More clones arrived and shots rained down on each side. The captain of the task force yelled at Aashirwad “Sir! Get yourself and the other two into the ship. I and my men will handle this.” Aashirwad was hesitant but proceeded with the plan.

The trio entered the ship and was ready to take off. Aditi gave them the signal and the force started entering the ship dodging every bullet. The captain was shot in the shoulder and fell down, he screamed “Go on without me!” The ship started flying up and turned around. The back was open and Aashirwad standing there with a gun in hand. He shot more clones and grabbed the hand of the captain and spoke “No man is left behind.” The major lifted the captain onto the deck while shooting at the clones. They got into the ship and the back closed. The ship flew out of the shuttle and the crew was smiling. They had no casualties and succeeded in their mission. But, they were injured but happy. Aashirwad sighed and bandaged up the wound on his left leg and put the ship on auto pilot and entered the destination. The ship calculated it in few seconds and was set course to Mars.

Back in the shuttle, YX gritted his teeth in rage, as how could the intruders escape and fool him. Agent R entered the room and spoke “Master, we must get ready for the war. Sai Galactic Federation has accepted our terms to help us in this war.” YX nodded and waved his hand, and Agent R left the room. YX smiled at the thought of killing Commander Aryan while the man lying down on the ground impaled while his foot stepping on him as he pleaded for mercy. But he would get none from him.

While with 7-B,

Everybody came out of the hyperbolic time chamber exhausted and drenched with sweat. They were informed by Pari, that Aashirwad and the others would be coming. Aashirwad stepped into the hallway with a few scratches and a bullet on his left leg. Aditi and Anushka followed the major, Aryan smiled and spoke “It’s good to see you two.” He proceeded to hug Aditi, but Aditi pushed him away and spoke “No hugs at all from you or anybody else in this ship.” Aryan smirked and spoke “The real Aditi obviously.” Aashirwad questioned Aryan “So, what have you and the rest have been doing while we were gone?” The commander responded “Just an easy workout.” The rest of the team’s eyes widened, it was their most gruesome training session ever. They all remembered their hours in the chamber.

The chamber’s temperature was chilling, the environment was scattered with drones and mechs. The team scouted the room if there was anything ready to strike them down. Out of nowhere a mech appeared and started firing at them; Jason blocked the fire with his new hammer, saving everybody. Jason charged at the robot and broke it into pieces, when drones came flying, firing at every being in the room. Aryan dodged every bullet and then Onkar grabbed her pistol and shot some few rounds at the drones and they fell rapidly onto the ground. Everybody was unscathed. But then they heard a rumble and found a gigantic mech standing in front of them. The group scattered across into pairs. The plan was that Ayushman and Rashesh would lure the mech towards them and the others would start firing at it but Kirti and Anshuman would protect the other two from getting shot at. The plan failed as the mech went firing at random places in the chamber and Jason hit its right leg and Aryan put a sticky bomb onto its other leg. He launched the bomb and the mech came toppling down onto the ground. Rashesh stood on it and stabbed it through its engine. Everyone sighed with relief except Aryan and he grinned. The commander spoke “There are 52 more where they came from.” 20 mechs appeared into the chamber and most of them gulped while the rest facepalmed at the commander’s passion of fighting.

The rest of the team’s eyes twitched and they begged not to have another session. Aryan chuckled and opened the door to the T&I Chamber to check the clones, if they were alive. Aryan stared at the empty seats in front of him. He looked at the others and spoke up “The clones are missing! Search the base! They can’t be far.” The rest nodded and left. The commander went into his room to see if he could locate the two with his tracker. The room was pitch black. Aryan then staggered in the dark to turn on the light switch. As soon as he turned it on, he was stabbed from behind. He groaned in pain as he saw the clones present in the room. Anushka’s clone was still in a trance because of the drug. Aditi’s clone gave a battle cry and tried to attack him with a blade. He dodged the attack and punched her in the gut but Anushka’s clone awoke from the trance and charged at him, he punched her in the face breaking her nose and kicked her into his desk which broke apart. Aditi’s clone groaned in pain for a bit but tried to stab him in the chest but the commander held her wrist tightly and twisted it. He had successfully broken her wrist and kneed her into her chin as blood poured from her mouth and she fell unconscious. Aryan slowly got out clutching his wound and walking slowly to the control room. Sanvi was the first one to see him and helped him to sit down. The others came round him and the commander slowly spoke “The clones are in my room, Aditi’s clone has a bloody mouth and broken wrist while Anushka’s clone has a broken nose. The two are both unconscious.” He looked at Pari and spoke “Exterminate both of them fast.” Pari nodded and left with Ayushman and Kirti to deal with the clones. Shreya came to knee height and slowly removed the switch blade stuck in the back of Aryan’s. He groaned in pain as the blade was removed. Rashesh then took Aryan to the medical bay to get some rest and healed by the doctor.

After hours, a message was received by the control room; Sanvi spoke up “Everybody see this message sent by the shuttle.” The message displayed Yug and he spoke towards the camera, “I have infiltrated the shuttle even if the others think I am stupid to go here. I know I will die today but, I need to test the strength of this guy so you all can be wary. My message might be received by home base in some few weeks or so. Use Project MT. It’s our necessary means to survive the war. If we don’t use this then there shall be no quadrant 7-B anymore, also no more Loyola government.”

Everybody looked at each other, it would be a dangerous move but first they need to consulate with the commander. Sanvi hurriedly goes down to the medical bay and informs it to Aryan. He gets up from the bed and stands up. He speaks “Let’s do this. Let’s release Project Mt.”

Chapter 10:

The commander and his assistant went down to the underground levels of home base. Aryan muttered “There are thousands of doors here where shall we find it.” Sanvi responded “Commander, I know everything about home base. The door is VII-B.” They reached the door and Aryan showed his eye to the scanner. The device scanned his retina and the door opened. There was an emerald box on a pillar and the commander grabbed it with ease and they proceeded to head up. They got into the elevator and it started going up when the elevator shaked and the roof it. It stopped at the ground floor and the two went into the control room. Aryan spoke up “What’s happening?” A cadet with fear muttered “The war is beginning, commander! Sai Galactic Federation and that YX have made alliances.” Aryan cursed under his breath and ran towards the base doors. One million soldiers were ready at his command excluding the quadrant. Aryan gave a speech “Soldiers, this is your commander speaking. Outside this very door are those scum which threaten to kill us. To destroy the will which our founder Ignatius had! Those who want to join me can run out these doors and kill every single clone until your last breath but those who don’t want to participate, go hide in the washroom like the weakling you are! Now are you ready!” A chorus of screams came “Yes Sir!” The doors opened and the army charged with the intent to kill the mindless army of clones and their leader. Aryan smirked and his teammates appeared in front of him. He spoke towards them “Take each of these. If you’re going to die put them on a clone of yours. But,” There was a pregnant pause and he continued “If even one clone lives and YX lives to see another day then we lose. Not only us but the whole reason our founder made the government also looses. So, let’s go fight together.” They all nod and charge into battle being accompanied with Pari. Blow after blow was given on each side of the army as everybody fought for their reasons. The army of Loyola fought to protect others one more time, the mindless clone army fought for their master YX and Sai Galatic’s army fought for the bribe given by them by YX.

All the training given by Aryan to the quadrant was handy. They were using their intelligence and strength at the same time. Jason smashed everybody in the area with his hammer. Aashirwad in the lead slicing all the clones with the rest of the cavalry.

Aryan chuckled while killing a clone; it was fun to live this life again with friends by your side. He sliced another clone and rammed his dagger through his chest when the commander was impaled by a sword from behind. Aryan staggered and fell down. He stood back up strong. He was looking at Agent R, who was smiling like a jackal. The cyborg tried to give a death blow but the commander dodged it and stabbed him in the gut and kicked him. Agent R tightened his fists and enabled his blaster on his wrist and shot at Aryan many times but failed. Agent R threw down his weapons and glared at Aryan, the commander dropped down his weapons and rose up his fists and spoke “The old fashion way huh. Aryan punched Agent R in the face which the cyborg returned with a punch to the gut. Agent R tried to kick the commander’s legs but Aryan jumped and kicked the guy in the chin. Agent R spit out his blood and punched Aryan in the face. The commander staggered but proceeded to punch the person in the chest when he was shot by him. Aryan fell down to his knees and puked out some blood clotted in his chest. Agent R smiled and took out his sword and spoke “What are your last words, commander?” Aryan chuckled and threw Project MT at his neck without him noticing. Then in a split second, the head of the commander of the Chronicles ship came rolling down, Agent R was motionless. Some few soldiers were shocked. One of the mindless clone came to tap Agent R, because he was not recovering. But then the clone’s head was cut off in mere seconds. Agent R or Aryan smiled. Project MT stood for Mind Transfusion. They could transfer their to another person’s body. Aryan in the body of Agent R removed the cybernetic advancements to the body except the robotic arm. Jason looked over at Aryan and the commander gave thumbs up. Aryan sliced and shot every single clone on the battlefield with his new body.

A gigantic mech appeared on the battlefield designed by Sai Galactic Federation. It hits every single soldier and shoots down the robots. Aryan looks over at Jason and Pari who both nod. The trio charge at the mech. Aryan transforms his robotic arm into a gigantic blade and cut a leg of the mech. Pari electrocutes the mech with her voltage power, Jason jumps onto the mech smashing the head of the mech with his hammer and kicks it onto the enemies. The mech collapses onto the army of clones crushing it.

Their army was winning which Aryan realized. But, he got a message through his earpiece by Sanvi. She spoke through the earpiece “Commander, the core of the clone army is in the gigantic ship in the sky. YX is in the control room and the clone creator is the core itself. Go fast because one of our spies in the shuttle told us that YX is trying to make a clone of himself. If there was an army of YX then it would be the end of us.” Aryan nodded and spoke through his earpiece to the rest “Aashirwad, Anushka both of you come with me. Shreya and Kirti go to the core and destroy the machine.” All of them nodded, Aryan whistled as a signal. A robotic bike zoomed and stopped near him. Aryan put a saddle on and sat on it. The bike started zooming through the field dodging every attempt to kill it and its rider. Aryan looked behind and the others were following behind him. He saw a ramp up in front made up of clone’s body that could reach to the airship. He added more speed to the bike and it flew into the sky, Aryan jumped from it and grabbed a bar outside from the airlock of the ship. He opened it and the others arrived through the ramp with their vehicles. He got up onto the ship. Everybody did their respective roles.

Aryan was followed by Aashirwad and Anushka as they went upto the control room. It was dimly lighted, Anushka head over to the control panel and started hacking the cloning systems and deactivating them. Aashirwad had a feeling if something was not right. He then sensed a presence and dodged the hit by the cane like taser. It was YX in front of them. Aryan drew out his metal spear while Aashirwad got out his dagger.

While in the core, the clone creator was slowly creating the clone of YX. Shreya searched for the panel with Kirti, they found it when the clone was thirty percent done. Shreya typed and tried to decipher the code to stop the progress. Shreya grunted at her failed attempts as the progress became forty percent. Kirti pushed Shreya over and cracked her fingers and spoke “ I’ve been in business management for this only. It was handy for me to read those cipher books.” She rapidly typed it when she did an error and the progress sped up to sixty percent.

Aashirwad dodged another attack from YX; Aryan spoke “Aashirwad protect Anushka at all costs.” YX smiled and spoke “You can never defeat me.” Aryan gritted his teeth and swung his spear at YX which the mastermind dodged. YX hit Aryan with his cane like taser it electrocuted the commander. Aryan groaned in pain and stabbed Yug in the gut but was returned with a kick in the chest. Aryan fell down. Aashirwad tried to stab YX in the face with the dagger, YX hit Aashirwad’s wrist which made the dagger fall down. YX smiled and tried to hit Aashirwad on the head. But, Aryan hit him on the head with a metal pipe lying nearby. Aryan dropped his spear and they started a fist fight.

Yug dodged the punches of Aashirwad and Aryan and stamped the feet of Aashirwad’s. Yug twisted the hand of Aryan which the commander returned with a punch on the face breaking his nose and kicked him. YX landed near the control panel, he groaned and tried to choke Anushka. But, Aashirwad kicked him.

With Kirti, the progress of the machine sped up to ninety percent; the stress was shown on the face of Kirti who was deciphering thousands of codes in order to stop the progress of this disaster which would happen if she failed. A code appeared on the screen which Kirti was dumbstruck at, the percentage sped up to ninety nine percent, Kirti got frustrated and tried to think when Shreya pushed her over and stabbed the device with her sword. Electricity started sputtering from everything. The panel read “100 percentage: Deactivated” Shreya smiled but the core started sputtering with electricity. The duo started running from the incoming blast and jumped from the ship landing safely onto the ground. The core exploded and the ship would crash soon.

The ship started tilting and Aryan, Aashirwad and YX slid down the floor and held onto anything if they could, Anushka grabbed her chair tightly. YX took out his blaster in his pocket and shot at Aryan. It missed and hit one of the helium tanks in the room. The tank flew in the room and hit the roof and ground. Moving throughout the room, Aashirwad dodged the tank. Aryan screamed as it came towards him and jumped. The tank flew across and broke through the glass. YX gritted his teeth and shot some more. The other tanks got hit and flew across the room. The ship tilted on the opposite side. Anushka screamed as she held onto her seat dodging the tanks. The three men slipped across the floor falling onto the other side room. The ship tilting in the air, everybody on the field screaming and running from the incoming crash, while the clones remained on standby. Tanks flying across the room, one of them hit Anushka and threw her onto the field. Aryan cursed under his breath. He grabbed one of his daggers and stabbed the ground and laid down holding it. The glass shattered, YX grabbed his feet and Aashirwad grabbed the mastermind’s feet. They were over the ledge and if they let go then it would be their end. YX stabbed Aashirwad and the major fell onto the ground. He was falling when he was saved by Jason who grabbed him and ran out of the way of the ship. Aryan threw his pocket knife at the panel.

Electricity sputtered across the room and the ship went falling down. YX climbed onto Aryan and grabbed a chair and the ship came falling down onto the field. Every soldier screamed and ran away. While the quadrant of 7-B were waiting for their teammate. The ship crashed and the impact made everybody fall down. The ship started rolling across the field. Everybody ran from it. Anshuman started running while the others followed behind. The ship some few meters away from them, they jumped into the base. As the ship came crashing into the harbor of the base, it stopped and it remained silent. Out of the ship came out a silhouette, it was Aryan he was staggering as he gripped his left arm and groaning in pain. An arrow was shot in his direction by Aditi and the commander dodged it. He turned around to see the arrow hit YX, killing him once and for all.

Aryan smiled and gave thumbs up while the others nodded.

Epilogue:

It has been months from the war, everything was being fixed and built back. Aryan was sighing in his chair; he survived with a broken arm and a sprain in his foot. He walked slowly to the control room. He was called by Sanvi. She spoke “Good morning, commander.” He nodded and she continued “Our men have found the destroyed core of the ship which fell out during the crash.” Aryan nodded and followed Sanvi to the docking bay where the core resided. A soldier saluted him and spoke “Sir, unfortunately one clone has survived.” Aryan nodded and opened the container where the clone was. He gasped as the clone of YX survived. It woke up and Aryan smiled and gave a hand to the clone to pick him up. Aryan knew that YX failed and this clone had emotions and the best thing humanity.

Aryan spoke “Welcome to the world, Yug.”..............
