Chapter 102 - Part 4. Watch.

'The Bestiary' bar situated within the Gila Flat Test Base, inside, Ezekiel occupied a two-person table with a cup of coffee on his front as he observed the couple not far from where he sat. Though due to the lack of people and the quiet environment, both easily flirted with each other as they enjoyed their break meal together.

Shifting his gaze back to his Comic in his hands, Ezekiel read through the Golden Age of various heroes and villains as he slowly understood the surrounding of the world as it is. Unknown to all the organisms of this planet, today's day will go down and be known as the day 'God' shed his human body & descended upon Earth. Whilst reading, he did not forget to look at the watch he brought with himself as he wishes to know the moment the accident occurred.

Janey: "Jon? Did you fix my watch yet?" asked whilst her legs climbed on him, teasing and smiling at him seductively.

Jon looked and heard what she said, as he came to remember the watch, "as a matter of fact, I did! It's right…oh" searching through his pockets he exclaimed in an indistinct voice, as he remembered he placed the watch on top of the coat which he left behind in the Chamber.

Janey: "What's the matter?" she wondered, rubbing his foot.

Jon: "Nothing, I left it on my lab coat when we were resetting the Intrinsic Field Chamber this morning" he said pointing back towards the direction. Removing his girlfriend's leg entanglement he slowly got up, "just wait here, I will get it back" he said, before turning around and walking out of the door both came from.

Looking at his back, Janey took a second before she recovered her gaze and started to mix the sugar in her coffee.

Observing as the event started to take place, Ezekiel's right hand went inside his coat as he brought out a small and almost unnoticeable pill before getting up with the Comic in his left hand, leaving behind the untouched coffee on the table. Walking through the various tables, he took the path which passed through Janey's table as suddenly his left hand holding the Comic jolted up, causing it to fall below her feet.

Janey who was about to start drinking saw a shadow fall beside her, as she turned over and saw a Comic of a woman with a skirt floating up in the sky and the Comic's title 'Sensation Comics'. Looking ahead, she saw an extremely handsome man approach her as he bends down and picked up the Comic Magazine and heard him, "I didn't mean to startle you".

Janey: "No, no, it's okay" she smiled at him as she saw him leave by her side and focused once again down on her coffee.

Opening the door and leaving, Ezekiel put the Comic inside his coat as today's most important task was completed, throwing the pill within her coffee while she was distracted looking at him. Looking at the watch in his hand, he saw time ticking as with each second the accident became nearer, yet an uneasy feeling of something being wrong disturbed within his mind.

Following the same tracks where Jon walked through, he saw him outside the building with another man, who is also known as Wally Weaver, a co-worker and friend of his and the cause of Jon being together with Janey as he was the one who introduced both with each other. Waiting patiently, Ezekiel saw Jon's feet move as he too moved and walked towards the inside of the building as to not look as if someone is following him, though it is impossible to someone notices him whilst he is in camouflage.

Passing by Wally who had both his hands inside his coat as he observed the sky boringly, Ezekiel walked up the stairs and entered inside looking at Jon who was already inside the Intrinsic Field Chamber.

Jon: "Aha! Just where I left it" he said whilst picking both up. Outside the chamber, Ezekiel looked at the timer which was still left with [00:08] seconds before it automatically closed and waited for his doomsday.

Seconds left [00:06] and Jon walked out of the Chamber, proceeding to leave the building though not before turning around as if missing something and going downstairs to Wally. Ezekiel stood there with wide eyes, as after such a long time, a surprise which he hadn't felt for years took over him and he turned around looking at the Intrinsic Field Chamber closing itself and testing the chair.

Hurriedly moving to the door frame, he stopped as he listened to the conversation of Jon with Wally, looking to see if there is some sort of trick he cannot differentiate with reality or some sort of mistake which caused this reaction.

Wally: "Everything all right?" he asked while walking to him and taking his hands out.

Jon: "Fine. Found the coat just where I left it. Now I can give Janey back her watch instead of a handful of molecules" he said jokingly as he took the watch to his hands, "that's strange" he exclaimed as he saw the watch.

Wally: "What?" asked, approaching him more.

Jon: "I fixed it this morning, but now it's not working again. The second hand isn't moving" he described to Wally who listened, "it's frozen at 'one-fifteen'".

Wally: "Maybe you didn't fix it as good as you thought, Doc" he said, looking at the watch carefully.

Jon: "No, you don't understand. When I fix a watch, it stays fi-" suddenly he shut up, as he something different, "see, I told you I fixed it. Might have happened something, good Janey will like this" he said while showing it to Wally.

Wally: "Well, I guess there is a first time for everything" as he patted Jon's shoulder and both walked away slowly, both to their own destination.

Standing alone in the door, Ezekiel took out his watch as he saw his 'Time' too has changed from the perspective of his calculations. As if 'Time' had stopped literally for minutes.

For the first time, Ezekiel felt an excitement building within him as a different & newer challenge was placed on his hands. Turning his body around, he saw the Intrinsic Field Chamber evaporate the chair placed inside as all the natural forces joining its atoms and molecules separated.

Although 'God' ceased to exist in this world's 'Fate' trajectory, Ezekiel is sure to go back in 'Time' once he explores the consequences of such being not coming to exist and the world continuing in its track as it is.
