S.P.E.C.T.O.R – [A Sci-fi space adventure with fantasy elements]

The hoverbike sped through the different sectors of Trillion’s lower city as Adam followed the directions his minimap was giving him for the neutron reactor plant.

”So are you going to tell me why you want to break into a sky tower security station?” Stacey asked as she continued to press herself against Adam’s back.

”To get the blackmail material needed to use against your boyfriend, ach,” Adam replied before he suddenly scratched in pain as Stacey punched his sides.

”Hey, I’m riding here, don’t suddenly pinch me.” Adam protested.

”Then don’t call that perverted dickhead my boyfriend.” Stacey huffed before continuing in a calmer voice.

”Why do you need to access the Sky Tower security, though?”

”Because the normal security has nothing on him, it’s like you said, they are basically gang members with badges and don’t keep records. Also, as Susan said before, the sky tower security branch is on a closed network, and you can’t hack them remotely.” Adam explained.

”So you’re doing it for me?”

”No, I’m doing it for the credits, helping you is just a bonus since you’re still my employer.”

Stacey heard his reply but didn’t respond and only smiled slightly.

The hoverbike continued to speed through the lower city as it headed towards its destination.

About thirty minutes later, Adam and Stacey entered the sector that housed the natron reactor and saw the giant floor-to-ceiling octahedron surrounded by pylons in the distance flashing as electric arcs shot between them.

Adam turned slightly and headed towards the giant tower-like building, which appeared to be undergoing renovations.

”Scaffolding or what Adam assumed was the futuristic version of scaffolding surrounded the tower, but instead of planks of wood being held up by metal posts. This scaffolding was a floating platform that hovered above one another with small orbs on the bottom of each, which Adam assumed were what made the platforms float.

All the windows were empty and without glass or whatever they used, and as they pulled up at the base of the tower, they found construction supplies and machinery lying around.

”Good, looks like no one is here,” Adam said as his eyes scanned their surroundings.

”Well, it is the middle of the night, the workers have probably gone home,” Stacey said as she reluctantly removed her arms from Adam’s waist and climbed off the hoverbike.

”You have a point.” Adam agreed as he also climbed off the bike before turning to Stacey and saying, ”May I carry your bag?”

”That’s more like it.” Stacey said with a smile before she handed him the bag while saying, ”You may.”

Adam chuckled before he swung the bag back onto his own back and said. ”Let’s go.”

Stacey followed as they both entered the building and headed towards the stairs.

”I don’t suppose the lift will function,” Stacey commented.

”Doubt it,” Adam replied as they passed a pair of elevator doors that were open and looked inside.

The lift shaft was empty and devoid of any lift as far as the eye could see, and nothing happened when Stacey tried pressing the button that called the lift.

”Well fuck, do we really have to climb all the way up? This building looks like it’s over a hundred stories tall.” Stacey asked.

”Hey, you wanted to come. ” Adam joked before saying, ”There is another quicker way. How do you feel about heights?”

”I’m fine with them, why?” Stacey asked.

”I could fly us up to the top using my armour’s anti-gravity drive, though I would have to carry you.” 

”I’m fine with that.” Stacey replied a little too eagerly causing her to blush slightly before turning her head and saying, ”You know if you want to.”

”Ok then,” Adam said before he approached Stacey and scooped her up in his arms.

”Wahhh.” Stacey squealed slightly as she was lifted off her feet before she quickly wrapped her arms around Adam’s neck.

Adam activated his anti-gravity drive, causing his wings and tail to appear as they lifted off from the ground before flying out of the tower and ascending straight up.

”Wow,” Stacey said as she looked around at the view. She had ridden on space ships before, but she had never flown like this using an armour’s anti-gravity drive.

After a moment, she noticed his wings and tail and asked, ”Why do you have wings and a tail?”

”It’s how my anti-gravity armour works. When I take flight, the wings appear. In the past, the tail always used to be present; however, I learnt how to hide it since it drew too much attention.”

”I’ve never heard of such a thing.” Stacey commented as she admired his wings and tail.”

[[*ALERT*]]

[[Trillion lower level security feed shows a shuttle approaching your location from your 5 o’clock.]]

[[Launching stream.]]

[[Stream description below:]]

[[Stream Title: Backup for the eighty sixers]]

[[Mission Parameters: A mega corp attempted to intercept the cargo the courier who hired you was transporting, but failed and has now agreed a price with the Trillion gang Eighty Sixers. The eighty-sixers suspect foul play, however, and have hired you as backup in case it’s a setup or something goes wrong.]]

[[Missions Goal: Watch over the eighty sixers as they make the exchange and give them support if it goes south.]]

[Forever1stCommenter (Earth): First.]

[Beczontop (Terrana 5): THAT FUCKING BITCH! GET YOUR HANDS OFF MY MAN.😡]

[1000yearsofdeath (Earth): Oh shit, the streamers already in trouble, Kekeke.]

[Tessisdabest (Terrana 5): Calm down.]

[Beczontop (Terrana 5): You calm down, that bitch is being princess carried by my man. How can I be calm.]

[Tessisdabest (Terrana 5): He’s not your man. 😮‍💨]

[OfficialLorelie (Terrana 5): …]

[OfficialRowena (Felinia 4 ): Oh my, is the chat always this lively at the start of the stream? Also, the streamer has wings and a tail?] 

[Tessisdabest (Terrana 5): Only when Beczontop gets jealous, and yes, it’s something strange his armour does. My apologies, Diva Rowena.]

[OfficialRowena (Felinia 4 ): No need to apologise, it’s quite entertaining, and I’m happy to see my granddaughter getting so close to a man.]

[Celebrityhunter69 (Earth): KEEEEEEEEE. TWO DIVA’S TOGETHER AGAIN, THIS MUST BE HEAVEN.]

[OfficialRowena (Felinia 4 ): Oh my, it seems we already have fans on this planet called Earth, Lorelie.]

[OfficialLorelie (Terrana 5): Indeed.]

[AlamoMatador4thewin (Earth): No, she’s just mad about any celebrity. Honestly, this chat is full of crazies.]

[Celebrityhunter69 (Earth): Who are you calling crazy? want me to rip your dick off?]

[Tessisdabest (Terrana 5): Rip his dick off, no thanks, that would involve touching it, and there is only one dick I want to touch, no, I plan to burn his dick off with plasma.]

[AlamoMatador4thewin (Earth): …]

[All the men in the chat: …]

[Tessisdabest (Terrana 5):🤦]

[OfficialRowena (Felinia 4 ): 🤣 Oh my, I don’t think I have ever seen such an entertaining chat.]

[OfficialLorelie (Terrana 5): That’s probably because you’re too busy to watch streams.]

[OfficialRowena (Felinia 4 ): I can’t argue with that, though I get the feeling I need to start making time in the future.]

”They’re early.” Adam suddenly said as he turned slightly in the air.

”What?” Stacey asked.

”Look,” Adam said, indicating where she should look with a nod of his head.

”Is that a shuttle?” Stacey asked as she could make out the faint outline of one before adding, ”But they’re early. Was Jessie wrong and there planning to have people wait in ambush before the meet?]

”That would be my guess,” Adam answered as he increased the speed of their ascent so that they could reach the top before the shuttle saw them.

”We’re not going to make it to the top in time,” Stacey said after a few seconds.

”You’re right,” Adam replied before he suddenly stopped ascending and darted through one of the missing windows that was a few floors down from the roof.

Adam touched down on the floor and deactivated his anti-gravity drive, causing his wings and tail to disappear before he hid behind a pillar.

[Noobkiller9000 (Earth): Hey his tail disappeared, I thought it was only the wings that did that.]

[Prestigious3horns (Vinox 2): You’re right, maybe he managed to learn how to control it better or something?]

[Beczontop (Terrana 5): Babe, you just landed, drop the bitch already.]

[DeverinianLordMalacoss (Deverinian 9): Even though I find this very amusing, I’m not sure calling a Diva’s granddaughter a bitch is a good idea.]

[Tessisdabest (Terrana 5): ...]

[OfficialRowena (Felinia 4 ): Hahaha, it’s fine, all is fair in love and galactic conquest.]

[Noobkiller9000 (Earth): I’m not sure that’s how the saying goes.]

[DeverinianLordMalacoss (Deverinian 9): When have you ever had to fight for someone you wanted as your mate?]

[OfficialRowena (Felinia 4 ): You have a point 😄.]

[Whostolemyduck (Earth): Focus people, it looks like the shuttle is slowing down.]

[SciFifanboy (Earth): That’s so Sci-Fi.]

”Is it me, or is it slowing down?” Stacey asked from Adam’s arms as she peered around the pillar.

”It’s not just you,” Adam replied as they watched the shuttle slow down as it flew towards the top of the tower.
