Across Book 2

Chapter 16 : Epilogue 1

Location : South Carolina, US

After the incident took place, Vijenshki was treated for the poisonous arrows he took. Four days later, Vinsh told him that there was someone who wanted to meet him.

Vijenshki wondered who it was, but Vinsh didn't reveal the person's name. Even while on their way back to South Carolina on flight, he swore his secrecy about the person.

Walking down the streets, Vijenshki followed Vinsh's footsteps until they arrived at the doorstep. Vinsh knocked on the door.

An old but considerably big man opened the door.
"Grandfather ?" Vijenshki's eyes widened as he recognised the person from the old photographs.
"Vijenshki," the old man said like a definite statement, "come in."

Location : Bosnia and Herzegovina

Mrs. Covic was busy with the household chores when the doorbell rang. Not expecting any particular guests, she went to the door to answer it.

"Mira !" Mrs. Covic was surprised to see her daughter.

Myra made herself home even though she had once said to never return home.

"What brought you back to home ?" Her mother asked.

"Tell me how you use your powers," Myra continued, "I want to use them to their full capacity. You've been using them for years. I want to learn."

Mrs. Covic looked at her daughter, and she was happy for two reasons - she not only came home but also wanted to know more about her abilities.

Location : Luxembourg

Rayman met Mary after the chaos. Upon meeting the question where he had been, he revealed some part of the question, ending with, "there are people who are immune to my abilities. I need be stronger."

"Don't tell me you're going somewhere again," Mary asked him.

"Don't worry, I'm here for a while. I also have to meet my friend James. Haven't met him in a while."

Location : ACROSS Headquarters

The empty room was lit when two individuals entered.

On this side of the room, seated William Hills and on the other side, Kevin Cafaro.

"For your actions of betrayal and attacking our members, you have been suspended for the time being." William Hills said.

"Do not care." Kevin Cafaro replied.

"I met you when you were a kid, and you still are one right now. I have said countless times that what you want-"

"I get it. I can't find my mother. I should let it go because it happened years ago. You're the person I begged to. I did whatever you wanted after that."

"Precisely why you got into trouble."

"It's useless to try, I get your point. Do not worry" Kevin rose from his seat, "I go rogue for good reason now," and left the headquarters.

Location : Kassel, Germany

Garion and Julia finally met after the mission.
"We talked all day in our heads," Garion said.
"It's not the same." Julia replied and kissed him.

Both had many plans after the mission that they happily went on for the next few days.

Location : Solihull, England

Jacob and Brock maintained their posts to operate on NEMYS safely through the underground passage, like William Hills gave his words. After two weeks their shifts had changed, hence they didn't need to further operate on it for the time being.

But Jacob wanted Brock on a train ride to Solihull, England. Jacob said he wanted Brock to meet his friend.

When they reached the platform, they both waited for a while until Jacob got up with a smile on his face. The person had arrived.

Brock was awestruck. He got up.

"Ava ? Ava Jones ?" Brock exclaimed. It was his internet friend, Ava, in front of him.

"Yeah, BrockAdler456, it's me." Ava laughed and shaked Brock's hand.

Jacob, while leaving for his hometown, thought as long as he was still near England, he would text Ava Jones for a meet up. After knowing Brock, Jacob had come to a conclusion that Brock wasn't going to meet her all by himself, since he was too shy to do so.
Hence Jacob decided to arrange the meetup.

Location : ACROSS Headquarters

Two individuals had taken their respective seats and few statements were waiting to be delivered.

"What made you think to join ACROSS ?"

"I recently came in contact with someone from the force. I thought it was cool. I want to use my abilities better."

"Well, I'm glad to hear that. We have various training equipment for the very purpose. Do you have any other questions ?"

"No, I think I already asked for all the necessary information."

"Very well then. Can you state your full for the record, please?"

"Ryan Browwne."

"Alright, I think I have everything I need. Welcome to ACROSS, Mister Brownne."

Location : HMP Belmarsh Prison

Wilson still couldn't find any trace of Brock and Jacob. Even if someone knew their names, their files had been deleted, or at least kept invisible.

And without the information the case was a dead end. Wilson tried to lead by the points but eventually gave up.

After two weeks since the incident occurred, they got an anonymous donation under the name, "For damages". The account when traced back had particular origin. It was a dead-end again.

But Wilson looked at the amount sent to them, and it was exactly, if not figuratively, the amount of money for the broken reinforced steel door in the maximum security room. Wilson realised it was the same person who broke into the prison system.
