The More You Gain, The Less You Have {Ejen Ali Fanfic}

Chapter 11

Chapter 11

(A longer chapter to make up for that previous short one.)

(This chapter may be a bit... Confusing?)

Normal P.O.V.

"No buts, I have great belief in you, don't waste it." Agent Rizwan spoke before walking off. Ali was left to stare at his spintop, thoughts rushing through his mind, thinking about what he needs to do.

"A minor upgrade won't take long." He spoke and clenched the spintop in his hand before rushing back to the Tekno pillar workshop to complete the said upgrade he needs. Agent Rizwan was right, he can maneuver controls using another electrical entity like Khai's R.O. Plus the upgrade that his mother already did on the spintops will be helpful.

It didn't take too long, maybe 10 minutes before he made a mad dash with his aero boots to get where he is needed to be, which was the transport waiting outside the academy. Ali panted as he stood in front of Agent Rizwan who seemed to look over at his wrist watch which is secretly another weapon before glancing over at the boy with a raised brow.

"You're late for 2 minutes and 13.2 seconds. Every second counts, therefore shouldn't be wasted in waiting." Agent Rizwan stated rather in a harsh way. Being friends with agents isn't a bad thing but when it gets down to business, he takes all matter seriously.

You will never know; one small thing can contribute to a greater impact on disasters.

"I'm sorry, I did a last-minute upgrade—"

"Every second counts, Ali. Let's not waste our time in elaborating." He cut him off mid-sentence and walked inside the large shuttle which takes them to the city. Ali scratched the back of his head and hurriedly went in to take his seat which was Beside Agent Geetha. He noticed that Comot came as well since she was being petted by Iman.

'Yeah, even my own cat never bothered seeing me anymore.' He thought to himself silently as the shuttle's doors slid closed and began the transportation procedure to the city. It no longer bothered Ali from the sudden speed, he was used to it.

He fiddled with his fingers, thinking about what is yet to happen. Yet another hand was placed on top of his, he glanced beside him to see it was Agent Geetha, smiling over at him.

"Don't worry, nothing bad is going to happen." She mentioned with another warm smile, grasping Ali's hands to soothe his slightly trembling fingers due to nervousness.

"I know that... especially when you guys are here. There is nothing to fear." The young tekno gave out a smile which the adult female nodded on to with acknowledgement before releasing his calm hands and straightening her poise.

The shuttle finally stopped its very fast motion and ceased into stillness. The electrical doors slid open and one by one did the agents went out. The last ones being Agent Geetha, Agent Rizwan and Ali himself. Ali feels more secure when in the presence of his mentors since after what happened, he is unsure if the others will be comfortable with him around.

After all, Rudy did say that his presence brings negativity to others.

It was already nighttime by then, and they hurriedly went into their positions on the Harbor. As much as Ali didn't want to separate from the comfort of his mentors, he quietly went to his group and headed to the west side of the harbor where Agent Rizwan's team is in the east.
