NEXUS (The Awakening)

Chapter 3 : Nexus Must Die

Mike thought to himself about what had happened and he was lost in thought until James interrupted him. " Bro what's going on and what do you mean what happened to the real Mrs Berg and Tatsuya and what was up with that sword swing you almost killed someone EXPLAIN", James said whilst folding his hands in a very concerned manner. " Damn it James is on me , what excuse can l make this time , hmm this was bound to happen some day right
", Mike said to himself in thought . " Eyoo Earth to Mike ",Shouted James.

" Ooh yeah I know okay you might not believe what l'm gonna tell you but I'm a member of the Nexus and what you just saw where otherworldly being if I'm not mistaken and it seems like they took the forms of Tatsuya and her Mother , Mike said. " I believe you ". " For reals ". " Of course not you expect me to just believe that are you normal you must be crazy bro very crazy I'm out , James said in a very confused way. " Okay i knew you wouldn't believe me but you may believe this ". Mike opened a hologram that was showing the Nexus Organization and people who worked in it . " You see James that is the Nexus and our job is to protect the Galaxy even the Universe we work in a very different dimension and except for you only Nexus members know this , but thats all l can say for now." " That explains the times you were absent so you were going to another dimension, wow in the end I'm the loser and the nerd is the hotshot ", Said James. " Hey who are you calling a nerd ", Mike said with a straight face. "Anyways the issue at hand needs to be solved something tells me it's more than meets the eye.

"Naibu, tell me are you scared of death", asked Lynx. " What kind of a question is that of course not death is nothing to me but l have to accept that in all my hundreds of years of living I've never seen anyone use a sword like that." " Exactly with the scans I did nothing matches to that in fact there is something hidden on their planet that not even the dwellers know about but I'm very sure the Pillar is located nearby you can sense it too can you Naibu, you must go investigate about the other one he might be the key to our locked door and I'll investigate the one called Mike as well as about the NEXUS", Lynx said with a sinister smile.

Whilst James was going home he kept thinking about the other things Mike told him before they departed." But l won't blame him he's just the same age as mine but I know he's honest I'm the only friend he has and the fact that he was sent to investigate me still bothers me but the best part is I might have superpowers ", James said to himself in thought in a very excited way.

When James reached his house he came in and greeted his mom and went to his room."Haaaa some rest at last". Whilst he was taking off his shoes something he never imagined could have happened at an early time happened.

" By the way James your friend here came to see ya she's still here", shouted James' mom. James' heart skipped a beat and he felt shivers in his spine , " She ?? She ?? Who could that be is it Tatsuya but that would be bad news I can't even breathe properly calm down Smith you have a Black belt you can do this," James said to himself. " Okay I'm coming , it's 10 in the morning wait I still have that watch phew at least that makes me feel at little bit safe". James went down the stairs only to see Tatsuya sitting in the living room." I knew it they are on to us well lemme keep a straight face" James said confidently. " Well hello James, said Tatsuya.

" wats up you seem to be in a good mood ( 'As if you monster' said James to himself ) soo what did your mom say". " Actually nothing I was surprised she didn't react at all maybe she was in a good mood". " Well good then laughed James knowing her she would beat you to a pulp ". " Yeah ", said Tatsuya confusingly. " This kid he's not stupid that l can say what is he up to", Tatsuya said to herself. All of them then sat at the table and James sat beside Tatsu and he took hot tea and put Tatsu's cup aside." Let's see if you're human", James said as he faked missing the cup and spilled tea on Tatsu's legs. James was surprised about what happened then went on to ask Tatsu that it was hot tea. " Huh ". " Tatsu what do you mean huh that hot tea", said James' mom . " Damn it they got me that kid James hell pay what will l say then ahaaa hmf you're not wining this one human", said Tatsuya. " I mean oww yeah some tea spilled on my left leg my right leg is a fake if you can touch it James". James felt it and it was really a fake leg. " I can change my body stupid but we'll tried you'll die for that ", Tatsu said to herself. The three of them chatted but James kept on being cautious and Tatsu took her leave and James took her out . " Soo mind telling me who you are and what you want ," James said in a ready to fight manner. " What do you meaa.....", " wait when did he stick that blade in my kidney that boy wait it's the watch ", Tatsu said to herself. " I figured you're not human , so tell me who you are ", James said. There were not so many people available so James had prepared to kill but at that moment Tatsu teleported and James with her .

" Huh where are we is this the Shikoku Forest damn this guy is very cautious ", said James. " You're gonna pay for that do you know who or what l am", Tatsu said as transformed to Naibu "you will die here and now". James was in shock as he saw a Creature with four eyes and a huge tail and razor sharp teeth along with four huge arms at a height of about 1 meter tall. " I think I should run ", James said to himself as he started sprinting away , " Damn it I'm not gonna die today l can't die , I won't die I should just keep on running. As James ran he suddenly saw Naibu in front of him with his fist tightened , " aaah aaah are you telling me he covered 300meters in 2 seconds it's not possible what have l done this was a bad idea". " Now is not the time to reflect on your mistakes you should be cautious ", Naibu as he stretched his fist into James' face , James quickly put up his guard and the punch reached him with immense power and speed , " My hands are broken, aaaaargh ", James screamed in pain as he was hitting the trees in the forest finally a giant rock stopped him . " We're not done yet , said Naibu as he punched James for about 4 minutes. " Guess I'm dying here , what was I thinking sorry Mike I failed you".
