With the events that unfolded in the presence of MUSA, he came up with the hypothesis that ABU-BAKR developed extra ordinary feats which is due to his high affinity of ORION GENES. One of those feats is the foresight he developed when he was under enormous pressure. How his foresight works is based on two methods. The first being his nervous system having a high sensitivity rate which allows him to notice or analyze little things from his opponents. He then compiles those little things to be able to know their next move. This explains how ABU-BAKR was able to predict both of the soldier's moves before putting an end to them. The second method in which his foresight works is by creating illusions or mirages which ABU-BAKR can see in front of him. These illusions or mirages in a way showcase a few seconds of what his opponent will do visibly. It is a more accurate and complex method compared to the first one. But this second method has a flaw. That flaw is the limiter set on it. ABU-BAKR can only see visible mirages of his opponents for two seconds. Because of this limiter, he won't be able to use it frequently in the future but rather, he uses it as a trump card when he's in a serious life threatening situation.

MUSA then ordered ISA to restrain ABU-BAKR and throw him into the isolation chamber after explaining his hypothesis regarding ABU-BAKR's foresight. As ISA approached ABU-BAKR, he caught ISA off guard and attacked him. Because of his new ability, ISA found it hard to defend or counter against ABU-BAKR's attacks. Luckily ISA was able to draw his attention away from the others in which MUSA took advantage of and knocked ABU-BAKR out from behind. Just like that, all the commotion ended.

The next day around dawn, someone covered with a black robe unlocked ABU-BAKR's chamber and woke him up from sleep. As ABU-BAKR wakes up, he then said "not this again. When will you let me rest for one whole day"? Then the person concealed in a black robe told ABU-BAKR that he is not here to bring him out for torture rather he is here to break him out of the facility. ABU-BAKR then asked him "aren't you amongst those that captured me and want to use me as a weapon?" then the mysterious man told him that he has no interest with whatever they are plotting. He joined them for personal reasons. He then told ABU-BAKR "are you going to follow me or you will keep on blabbing words". Without any option of escape, ABU-BAKR decided to follow the mysterious man.

As they were making their escape, they didn't trigger any alarms due to the keycard the mysterious man has at his disposal. This keycard gives him unlimited access to the facility. Because of this, ABU-BAKR thought to himself "this man has to be amongst the top six that run this place due to the limitless access he has". As they approached towards the exit, the man stopped by in another chamber to release another victim. The second victim he released turned out to be Ethan. With no time for explanation whatsoever, they went out of the facility. He then took the two to the nearest road in which he then explained why he helped them escape. He said to them "the reason I helped you escape is because of your potential and also the intentions of the other five. The both of you have the highest affinity of ORION genes amongst the handful that exist on earth. He then further elaborated by saying, people with the ORION gene have star like DNA embedded in them. Due to the shape, when they are injected with a formula which a scientist made years back, they end up being super humans. The reason is because when the formula collides with DNA of such person, the star shaped DNA ends up absorbing only the positive ions of that formula which then causes a genetic mutation. This genetic mutation ends up transforming the host of the formula into a super human. By super I mean you will have extraordinary abilities that a normal human does not acquire. Such abilities include: super strength, immense speed, enhanced intelligence, adaptability in a fast rate and some of them even end up having regenerative abilities. The both of you that have a high affinity of ORION genes end up having extra feats that surpasses our arsenal. This is why MUSA and the others see you both as a core factor to achieving their plans of world domination. And in order to turn you into obedient and emotionless killers, he decided to break every bit of emotion and feelings you have towards anything or anyone by killing those dearest to you and also torture you".

After explaining majorly everything to them, the both of them were overwhelmed with the amount and state of the information that was revealed to them. The man then gave them a map that will lead the both of them into the nearest town to lay low before the heat on them depletes. He also gave them some money which will help them for a few days before they settle. The man also warned them by saying that "as from today, you will be wanted people by this organization. They won't stop looking until they find you both and complete their task. And never let your guard down because they are very good when it comes to haunting their prey". ABU-BAKR with anger portrayed on his face said "I will not rest until I kill those heartless monsters that killed my parents for no reason. I will make sure each and every one of them suffer a slow and painful death".

The mysterious man then told them that he is heading back. And he also wished them good luck in their future. Ethan then asked the man "why won't you reveal your identity and follow us?" the man replied by saying "I cannot reveal my identity to you because the enemy might capture you and make you reveal my identity. I don't want to be caught before I'm done with my mission. Furthermore, the both of you don't need me. You both aren't ordinary humans. If anything were to happen, I'm sure you will figure a way out of it. I wish you good luck and now I may take my leave". And that's how a new journey began for both Ethan and ABU-BAKR.
