3 Shocking News *

It's been 1 year since the proper awakening and Lachlan couldn't get his information screen out of his mind. A shocking truth revealed that he was only half human and he had no clue as to what the other half could be. He has constantly hinted to it while talking to his mum, even straight out asked her, she always responded with the same reply.

"You're Lachlan, the son of Darius and I," Chloe said. He never believed it, Darius is the Father of everyone else but me. Adam, Jack, and Sarah are all full human but I'm only half. Lachlan stopped asking as she seemed to have no idea what he was talking about and was growing concerned as to why I kept asking.

Throughout the year Lachlan discovered more features about his eyes. One of his discoveries is that he can even see information screens for animals seen through a screen such as a tv or a computer.

He laughed at the idea that it could work through visual screens but attempted anyway. It was an animal documentary on Sperm Whales. The information screen that appeared was frightening, to say the least.

--------------------------------------------------------

Name: Sperm Whale

Age: Elder

Physical Strengths: Extremely strong muscles, enormous size and fast movement within the water

Physical Weakness: Unable to live on land and extremely restricted movement out of the water

Species Characteristics: Enormous body that's able to withstand dangerous water pressure with the ability to hold its breath for 90 minutes on average

Potential: 2nd Grade Potential

Current Condition: Healthy (Old)

--------------------------------------------------------

2nd Grand Potential was the highest Lachlan had seen. However, after that discovery, he decided to research as many animals as he can on the internet. Through this, he discovered a few other 2nd Grade Potential, some of the animals that reached this level were Orcus, Silverback Gorillas and Barbary Lions. Although Lachlan tried, he could never find an animal beyond 2nd Grade Potential.

Another Discovery was the storage setting. Sitting down Lachlan mumbled something beneath his breath.

"Storage, animals, land, carnivore" Lachlan said.

--------------------------------------------------------

>>Land:

"Lions, Barbary Lion, Adult"

--------------------------------------------------------

Name: Barbary Lion

Age: Adult

Physical Strengths: Extremely strong biting strength, large size and fast movement on land

Physical Weakness: Low – moderate stamina

Species Characteristics: None

Potential: 2nd Grade Potential

Current Condition: Healthy

--------------------------------------------------------

Lachlan was thrilled when he discovered this function. He also made the connection that the current condition meant the time when the animal was filmed or photographed, as the Barbary Lion he saw was from a photograph that was taken years ago and is most likely dead by now.

He felt someone suddenly grab his shoulders, looking behind he saw his mother, Chloe.

"What are you doing Lachlan? staring at thin air and mumbling to yourself," Chloe asked.

"Nothing really, just thinking" Lachlan replied.

"Okay, get properly dressed, in one hour we'll be going to see your grandparents," Chloe said.

Lachlan nodded before walking to his bedroom to change. After getting dressed he walked out and sat on the couch, Chloe was sitting there as well watching the news. There wasn't really anything new or different, a couple of drunks fought, and the weather is still unbearable.

"Breaking news, not long ago the President of America has announced a frightening statement," Said the news reporter. A clip appeared on the tv, there were the president and a bunch of other important figures within the government.

"Today, I'm here to address the world, 8 months ago it was discovered that a large celestial body three times larger than Earth is coming towards us. There is no stopping it, there is no destroying it. In 15 days that celestial body will reach Earth and destroy it. However, do not fear, although the destruction of Earth is imminent, the end of humanity is yet to come. Our scientists have worked for many days in creating our hope, and many months ago did it. We called it the Ark, it can hold up to 1245 people, we have created 30 of these Arks to save a total of 37350 carefully selected individuals. These individuals were selected for their intelligence, personality, and physical condition. In 10 days we are going to launch our first Ark and after that many will follow. In this time of darkness, I hope that people will not turn to violence and create chaos, but rather remain calm and cheer on the chosen. See you on the other side"

It was shocking the say the least, even news channels didn't know how to respond to this new information. Lachlan didn't know why, but he felt genuine fear for the first time in his life, a deep primitive fear coming from the very core of his being that's been long sealed away.

Lachlan could stop it, he began to cry, he quickly grabbed his Mother, holding on her arm tightly he continued to cry in her embrace. But Lachlan wasn't the only one crying while embracing her son Chloe was crying, she felt fear not only for herself but fear for her children.

"Mum, are we going to die?" Lachlan asked. Chloe didn't know how to respond, she only brought Lachlan closer to her and continued to hug him.

...

After that announcement panic quickly spread across the world, people began to create chaos, attacking people and stealing anything just for fun. After all, the worlds going to end and they're all going with it. The least they can do is spend the last few days doing actions that they've always wanted to do at least once in their life.
