The Jinns Amongst Us

Chapter 31

Two years after the events of the previous chapter, on the Eve of Christmas where the Sin city of Las Vegas is at its perk of beauty, with a city being lit up once again after being closed due to pandemic situations.

Thousand of people, especially women had managed to find their way into this beautiful city despite being put a strict rule on limiting the number of people visiting this city.

As the bowels of gambling continues, a masculine figure, wearing a Guy Fawkes Mask with a Black Vollebak Relaxation Hoodie is standing on the centre of several casinos, looking around while no one seems to pay attention to him.

He constantly looks around his time and with only a few minutes to pass to reach a full hour, he turns on his phone and taps in a application, which shows a dark green button which the text "Game Time" is shown above.

When the hour reaches full hand, he clicks on the button as it begins its work. Within seconds, the entire city goes into complete blackout, with every buildings, towers, even signboards and the handheld devices of people such as smartphones and laptops goes black.

As the crowd begins to feel unwary of this sudden blackout, the figure's eyes start glowing away in green as he starts walking directly towards the stage where a band was supposed to play.

As he almost goes to step, he gets stopped by the bodyguards whom he takes out with instant punches and a mystical wave of dark energy that flows out of him which throws off his opponents.

As he climbs aboard the stage, he grabs the microphone from the singer and within a single tap, the microphone becomes online, with an aura like energy made of green colour flowing out of his hands almost like his eyes does.

"Greetings, people of Las Vegas, and man, what a beautiful city this is, if only the n***d bodies would stop dancing in the name of gaining attraction and the shitheads would stop throwing their money towards it." said the hooded figure who's true voice seemed to be masked with a electronic rough one which is louder and sounds more like a demon rather than a human.

Seeing how weird he acts, the singer tries to sooth him down to which he slams him off with a wave of his energy with throws him off onto a billboard.

This makes the people become shocked and terrified over this person as to then, every device that has a display suddenly casting casting his masked face to project his face throughout the entire city.

"As I was saying, today marks a important day in the history of mankind, the birth of Jesus Christ, a holy soul who sought to heal the earth with his hands, but instead, your greediness and hatred towards each other destroyed that very mission, look around us, is this the paradise you want to build? mothers and sisters who once sought to offer their hearts to heal this world are now forced to offer their bodies to gain recognition, and don't get me started around the men, you know the shitty things you do." said the hooded figure.

"Who the hell are you?" asked a woman from the crowd.

"I AM OB$|DI∆N, I have been sent from the stars above to cleanse this world from this corruption, starting from this place." said Obsidian as he launches on his wave of energy from his hands and eyes as he bursts out, inflicting a burning green eye on his iris.

The wave of energy spreads out towards all buildings that reside in Las Vegas, diving through every hidden vault where Obsidian uses his energy to burst out the door, lifting off all hidden money, gold with, even the jewellers the people wear come out as it bursts out of the doors.

The people run away in panic as police arrive just in time to shoot down Obsidian. "You can't kill me, I'm invulnerable you bastards! I am unstoppable!" yelled Obsidian as he returns back on his feet after being shot with several shotguns, whom he tears it off with the police officer holding it into pieces.

Without a single piece of electricity flowing through, the news of them being robbed by a mysterious person is hard to reach, but as Obsidian's energy grows stronger with all the resources being ingested by him to which he starts telecasting his projection to the entire country, with everyone's screen showing his power, all the way upto the White House where the president herself witnesses this.

She immediately rings on her phone and within seconds, it answers. "Get me Sebastian on the line, now!" said the President.

Meanwhile, within Las Vegas, Obsidian's power grows so vast, he explodes off buildings with a wave of his hand, which terrified the death out of many people trapped there, and as those who try to escape are being blocked by a dome which seems impenetrable.

The people within are suffering through the blackness Obsidian put through, and within a few minutes, helicopters arrive, with the symbol of Creed insignia. As the helicopters get closer to the dome, they start firing at it with rocket launchers which does ultimately nothing.

"The launchers did nothing sir, time to bring in the big guns." said the pilot. "Roger that, big guns are arriving." said the driver who rides an advanced military carriers with a whole squadrons of tanks approaching towards the dome.

Meanwhile, within the carrier, along with a group of supernatural soldiers is where Tim too resides, wearing the Combat armour of Creed as he sits beside and looks towards the photos of his family through his phone. "First time?" asked a feminine voice in front of him. "No, not really." replied Tim.

"We locked a demon behind mirrors about two years ago." said Khayun who now broadcasts his own voice through a transmitter installed on Tim's neck. "Really? that sounds fun." said the girl. "It was, until I got dragged by some idiots." said Tim. "I can relate to that." said the girl.

"Really? go ahead." said Tim.

"I will, once you explain why you have two voices." said the girl. "It is clear as day, we are of two person, therefore we have different voices." said Khayun. "What he means to say is, I possessed a kid and been living inside him ever since." said Tim to which the girl smiles.

"I grow tiresome of your insults." said Khayun. "You asked for it." said Tim. "I was taken away too, a long time ago by bunch of military dudes, right after I saw my friend turn onto a wolf." said the girl.

"A wolf?" asked Tim.

"You know, like a werewolf, you haven't heard of those?" asked the girl. "Only in fiction, wait there are actual werewolves?" asked Tim. "You seem surprised." said the girl. "He usually is, around women of his age." said Khayun.

"Shut up man." said Tim to which the girl smiles. "So, what's your name? both of you I guess?" asked the girl. "Timothy, demon's called Khayun, yours?" asked Tim. "Eveline, my friends call me Eve." said the girl. "Where are your friends now?" asked Timothy.

"It's.. complicated." said Eve. "A fate worse than death I presume?" asked Khayun. "Something like that." said Eve when suddenly the carrier stops. "Guess we're here, come on." said Eve as she heads with the soldiers deploying, carrying a Amaranthine with her.

"Is that a Amaranthine?" asked Khayun.

"You know about this?" asked Eve. "It's complicated.. as men and women would say." said Khayun. "Sheesh.. sounds like someone's emotional around women." said Tim as he gets down and walks along with Eve as they witness towards the dome covering the complete city of Las Vegas.

"Wow.. that looks weird." said Tim. "Hmm.. I've seen some weird s**t, but not stuff like this, we can't get in I suppose?" asked Eve towards the Creed soldier. "We tried everything we got, including the tanks." said the soldier as tanks start bursting out on the dome which seems to do nothing. "So far, no response." said the soldier.

"Did you try sending anyone through it?" asked Tim. "We couldn't risk it, thought we try going in after mind waver opens a way for us." said the soldier. "Who is mind waver?" asked Tim. "Me, get the soldiers ready, I can open a way for you." said Eve. "You can?" asked Tim. "She can, unlike you." said Khayun.

"Dude, it's not like she would move stuffs with her mind? can you?" asked Tim to which Eve smiles and aims towards the dome as she draws her energies into Amaranthine as her eyes glow purple. "I think she meant yes." Khayun.

"Yeah, got it." said Tim as Eve tears open a wave within a dome and widens it further with the energies drawn through the very Amaranthine she carries.

"That gem, it powers her, doesn't it? yeah, it looks kind of cool." asked Tim. "Alright move in, don't wait around like ladies." said the creed soldiers as the squad begins to move, along with Tim who rushes towards the door as he moves through like a wave of thick black liquid with breathes as it moves.

"Cool." said Eve as she starts running towards the teared hole and releases it after the civilans within the border move out of it.

"Alright, our objective is simple, find the bastard who did this, and put him out, you are to follow my lead, not the lead of the meta freaks, understand?" asked the Creed soldier.

"Meta freaks?" asked Eve.

"Yeah, it's what he and his teammates call us, supposed to be some kind of sick joke." said Tim.

"Well..at least we know who the real freaks are." said Eve as she and Tim follow the soldiers onto the centre of the city.

"This place, I sense a familiar energy." said Khayun.

"What do you mean?" asked Tim.
