[Strange Boy 1] Chapter 3

..."Past"...

A long time ago, in ancient times, there was a beautiful and big island in the Mediterranean.

Do you know what the name of this island was?

Atlantis!!!!

Yes, Atlantis, that legend, but every legend has a beginning. We cannot say that something does not exist because we have not seen it before. There are many things that exist, but we did not see them, such as mermaids that disappeared at the bottom of the ocean and dragons that flew into space and disappeared.

All these creatures gathered in one place

Yes, it is the island of Atlantis.

Its inhabitants were no less powerful than these creatures, they were not normal human beings.

Atlantis was built from the power of the great gem that chose a princess to give her her strength. That princess gathered people and united them on this island whose size does not deceive you. Atlantis inside it can be even larger than a continent.

Believe it or not.

Atlantis lived for centuries with the magic of jewels, and its inhabitants changed because of its power. They could control magic, they had physical strength that was impossible to comprehend, this of course other than their scientific superiority. They were ahead of their time in every sense of the word.

The inhabitants of Atlantis were divided into clans of vampires, werewolves, mutants, fairies, monsters, some called them demons, and finally witches, and many, many other mythical creatures you may or may not know.

The question remains, where did she disappear to? Where did that island go? Where did the Atlantis go?

This was because they appeared to be savages, no force could stop them, they had no heart, they weren't zombies.

Anything they touch turns to ashes

"Runes"

Greece: the city of Athens [date: 4/28]

(9:15 a.m.)

Ark approaches Mary and looks at the vase in front of her

... Ark {Isn't this the vase that arrived yesterday... Wait what is this??? These engravings look like a story.}...

... Mary {what????}...

Mary looked at the vase to open her eyes wide. The inscriptions on the vase had changed, they had become the ones she had seen.

Mary did not understand what happened a few minutes ago, the vase had inscriptions in the form of flowers, how did they change?

This is impossible.

Ark looked at Mary in amazement

Ark {what do you mean by what??

... Have you not seen her... Martha, come look at this.}...

Martha comes to see the vase.

She puts on her glasses and looks closely

... Martha {Look at these drawings and these inscriptions, it sounds like an ancient language...but that's impossible}...

... Ark {Does anyone know her?}...

... Martha {I don't think this language even exists}...

While Ark and Martha were discussing this language, which they see for the first time and cannot understand, the third one looks at those inscriptions, astonished. She does not know this language. She has never seen it, but she understands it... Yes, you understand it. You can read what is written.

Mary furrowed her eyebrows. What is happening now? Mary tried to control her facial expressions so that she would not make them feel seriously disturbed. How would they react if I told them that she could understand this language that no one had seen before? If someone wanted to decipher any language, at least he would sit down. Months trying to decipher it, so how will you explain to them that she was able to decipher this strange language in less than a second?

While Eric and Martha are discussing this language, as well as Mary drowning in her thoughts, the lab is already full.

And now everyone is down to work

And in light of all this comes this old man with yellow hair and some white tufts because of his old age, wearing that black uniform. The president of the company, Mr. Harry, was known for his good manners and love for all his employees.

Mr. Harry stands in front of the door and looks at everyone who looks like bees, each of them doing his work without disrupting the other, knocking on the door to draw their attention, and he actually succeeds in that.

Everyone looks at him respectfully, everyone here appreciates him except for Mary, who seemed nervous, although she tried to hide the matter, but she could not hide anything from him, no matter how hard she tried.

He already knows about her superpowers. He has known Mary since she was a little girl when he visited her school one day and was impressed by her intelligence and her vast knowledge and then he met Laura, who became his wife and president of the largest charity in the world.

And because he had no children, Mary was exactly like his daughter, but despite that, he never wanted to help her in her career. He wanted her to rely on herself, even though he hired her in his company, but he treated her like other employees, and she started from scratch, and indeed, she was trustworthy, as she worked a lot until she reached her success. This and without any help from anyone, she was the most person who wanted to rely on himself and to prove to everyone that she is not weak and fragile as they think.

Mr. Harry turned towards these three to stammer

... Mr. Harry {what are you doing}...

... Ark {Oh Mister Harry look at this flowerpot}...

... Martha {Sir, look at those inscriptions, it sounds like a language of some sort.}...

... Mr. Harry {who discovered it}...

Arch and Martha look at Mary, waiting for her to respond, but she wanders off to know that she won't answer.

For Martha to answer, pointing at Mary

... Martha {I arrived yesterday from one of the sites that Mary supervises}...

Mr. Harry looks at Mary who was in a completely different world

... Mr. Harry {So this vase is Mary's work and she's in charge of it. If you want to help her, it's after all your work is done... you two go to your work}...

He says this so that the two of them bow their heads for a second and say together

... Ark and Martha {ok sir}...

They go to see Mr. Harry at Mary, who is still straying from him.

... Mr. Harry {aham ahem... marie..marie..mariustina}...

He said the last word out loud to get Mary out of her straying to turn to him

... Mary {Oh..Mr. Harry I'm sorry I didn't notice you}...

... Mr. Harry {You were in a whole other world}...

Mary lowers her head in shame

... Mary {I'm sorry, Mr. Harry, I didn't mean that}...

The gentleman smiles that sweet smile that everyone loved.

... Mr. Harry {It's okay Mary...if that's the case}...

... Mary "stutters" {Eh..it's nothing}...

... Mr. Harry {Really...put that vase in its place and follow me out}...

He said this to get out of the lab for Mary to sigh and carry the vase and put it back inside the cupboard and put it in this glass box and turn on the security service.

Mary came out of the lab and stood in front of the door to see the man leaning against the wall with his hands in front of his chest, his eyes closed.

Mary smiles, he is still the same as he was ten years ago.

Mary turns to him and looks at the ground

... Mary {Mr. Harry}...

As soon as she spoke, Mr. Harry opened his eyes and looked at her and straightened his stance

... Mr. Harry {come behind me}...

He said his words to start walking and Mary followed him.

Mr. Harry arrives with Mary in his upstairs office and tells the secretary not to let anyone in.

Harry enters his office and sits behind the desk and holds the file on his desk.

... Mr. Harry {Then it is... and don't think you can deceive me, I raised you from a young age.}...

... Marie {A..the vase}...

... Mr. Harry {what is it??}...

... Marie {Those inscriptions on it I can read}...

She said her sentence so that Mr. Harry looked at her

... Mr. Harry {I want to hear the story from A to Z}...

He said this to Mary swallowing her saliva and telling him everything since she lost control of her strength and those things she had seen until the inscriptions changed.

Mr. Harry listened to her without interrupting her until Mary finished chanting

... Marie {okay that's it}...

... Mr. Harry {You should go to the excavation site right}...

... Marie {Yeah...but why}...

... Mr. Harry {You need to know the whole story so I will tell the guards to let you in then we may really know your origin}...

Mr. Harry gets up and stands right in front of Mary and smiles at her, so she smiles at him too, and Mr. Harry looks at his watch

... Mr. Harry {Look, it's only a third ten, you have to go now or you'll be late for the workers}...

He said his sentence to Mary hugging him tightly and exchanging hugs

... Marie {Thank you dad}...

She said that to widen Harry's smile and move away from each other

Mr. Harry {Don't thank me again, understand....

... Now come on, you'll be late for work, there's still a long way to go, and then you'll have to come back again to check the trails you'll find.}...

Mary smiles at him and says,

... Marie {Okay, I'm going with your permission}...

She said this to Mr. Harry beckoning to her to come out of the room and sigh She would have felt really bad if she hadn't told anyone, since Mr. Harry, as her real father, was the only one she could comfortably talk to when the work time was over, of course.

While she's in those thoughts, she actually gets to her car to get in the car and go to the site.

...💜_________________*_______________💜...

Greece: Attica [date: 4/28]

(10:30 a.m.)

Marie has already arrived at the excavation site in Attica.

Mary parks the car and gets out of it to meet Heidi, one of the scientists who help her, as she is the supervisor of this site.

Mary smiles at her

... Marie {Hi, you're Heidi right}...

... Heidi {Yes, Miss Mariustina, I'm Heidi. I look forward to working with you}...

Marie crosses her arms in front of her chest

... Marie {Forget, I know you're supposed to be my assistant now, but I'd rather talk to him more comfortably. What do you think?}...

Mary looked at her surprised. It is not usual for someone to ask her to talk to him comfortably, especially since she is of a higher rank than her, as she is just an assistant.

When Mary saw the signs of astonishment on her face, she already knew what she was thinking, so she smiled and extended her hand to her

... Marie {Just call me Marie, I look forward to working with you}...

Heidi smiled at her realizing that she was lucky to have a boss like this

... Heidi {ok then marie}...

As soon as they finished talking, Marie went with Heidi to show her where the workers were

... 💜_________________*_______________💜...

Elsewhere [date: 4/29]

(8:00 a.m.)

This young man is sitting in his office with his back to him looking out that window.

That guy in his mid-twenties with red hair and blue eyes

Do you know who he is?? Of course you knew it was the weird vampire Felix

Felix sits fiddling with this black gem in his hand. Someone knocks on the door. Felix lets him in. His assistant and childhood friend Lux enters, with some files in his hand. He heads to the office and stands in front of him.

... Lux {Felix, you have to sign some papers}...

He said this so that Felix turns the chair and takes the files from him and begins to read them carefully and then signs them to blink while his eyes are still on the papers

... Felix {How are the stocks of our companies in humans}...

... Lux {It's fine. That human Arren manages everything well and knows I can move between the two dimensions thanks to the King and Queen who let me move when I told them we wanted to expand our stock}...

... Felix {if he gets ready because we have to go to the human world}...

Lux's face showed signs of questioning as Felix looked at him and took out the black gem to show it to him.

... Lux {I can't believe I got the Black Stone}...

... Felix {Yes, I had to deal with that chameleon yesterday}...

... Lux {I don't think I'm going to underestimate Arthur anymore......

... But really, Felix, do you think it's okay to take away the power of the princess?}...

... Felix {It's not like I'm going to release the runes, I just want my mom back...I know it's illegal but I have no other choice}...

... Lux {I'm always with you...so when do you want to go}...

... felix {now}...

... Lux {Well, since we need to personally supervise the human company, I will tell the king that there is an urgent matter and we must go today}...

... Felix {Thank you, man}...

He said this to give Lux those files for the other to take and go.

At this time he was thinking about it. He didn't want to hurt anyone. He didn't even want the princess's power. That power, power, money. All these things are for him. It's nothing. But now he needs it. He knows that no one will help him. He does it himself.

In the end, he left those thoughts and went back to work on his computer.

Exactly half an hour later, someone knocked on the door and Felix let him in so that Lux could enter

... Lux {We got permission}...

... Felix {so fast}...

... Lux {Yeah, you know I'm good at these things.}...

He pauses for a while, then continues

... Lux {but there is a small problem}...

... Felix {what}...

... Lux {You have to go first and I'll catch up. We can't leave things here without preparation}...

... Felix {okay that's okay}...

Lux {I prepared everything for you. I told Eren you were going and he would make an ID card and a bank account in addition to your car I'll move it for you just have to meet him} في

... Felix {Okay I get it... Thank you for being by my side all this time}...

... Lux {Say it again and I'll smash that face in your face}...

... Felix{ Hey, I'm your boss, do you know that?}...

... Lux {I know but I don't care}...

... Felix {I'm going to fire you}...

... Lux {believe me it will be the best day of my life}...

... Felix {Okay you got me... Let's go to the human world}...

He said this to Lux beckoning to him, so Felix gets up from his seat and heads to the door, followed by Lux, to go down to the garage to see his luxury car.

In less than ten minutes, the car arrived in front of the airport, but they would not take a regular plane. The driver and Lux get out of the car so that the driver opens the back door for Felix to get out, and as soon as Felix gets out of the car, the driver bows to him and blinks.

^^^ Driver {Bye Mr. Felix Atlantis will miss you I wish you a happy journey into the human world}^^^

Felix just makes a small gesture to enter the airport, but he turns to that sign on which he writes

"Human World / Please Get Permission"

He enters the door next to that sign to enter

that room that has control devices and with him Lux gives Lux permission to the guard, and after the guard checks it, he allows Felix to cross through this door that leads to that room, which is the difference between it and the room in which they are, a simple glass wall, and in the middle of that room is a blue jewel.

Felix enters the room and one of the workers contacts him and says

... Factor {Put your hand on the gem and think of a place or person you want to go to}...

Felix does what the worker told him and puts his hand on the gem and thinks of one thing

... ["Mariustina Andros"]...

As soon as he thought about this until that gem lit up and suddenly the place around him changed, it was already night, but in one second he was hit by that car to hear the voice of that girl screaming

... Girl {How did you appear so suddenly? And what is this light?}...

... {Hey, who are you???}...

... {Are you well ???}...

... {sir...sir}...

And so Felix fainted
