My Angel system

Chapter 104 Reverberation Beams

"Hi Emilia," Luis said immediately he stopped in front of her counter.

"Oh, hi greenie." She said with a smile and then disappeared behind the counter, she stood up now holding a couple of books in her hand.

"Drop these books on their respective shelves please." She said handing Luis the books.

"Ok," Luis grabbed the books and walked into the shelf area.

After dropping the books on their respective shelves, he walked to the secret shelf that led to Michael's base. He looked around to see if anyone was coming and then pulled the book on top.

The shelf opened and he walked in to see that Michael wasn't there, everything looked in place with the monitors playing footage from around the school.

"He must be down," Luis said as he walked to the elevator at the far end of the room opposite the monitor screens.

Now taken down by the teleporter Luis walked out to see Michael sitting on a chair with a bunch of circuits and machine parts in front of him.

"I wasn't expecting you this early," Michael said and then raised his head to look at Luis.

"Yeah, how did the meeting go?" Luis asked as he looked around the lab.

There was a large monitor fixed on the wall just above Michael, on the right was a large metal table with three standard volumetric flasks filled with chemicals on top of it, then beside it was a large glass case where Michael had all the inventions he had made.

The lab had a lot of space with nothing being set up on the side.

"How did you expect it to go?" Michael asked.

"You guys didn't just put him back in that prison did you?" Luis said.

"No, that wouldn't be a fair punishment considering he tried to kill us both and even brought a horde of demons into the school harming a lot of students in the process," Michael said as he stood up from his seat and stepped a little closer to Luis.

"Then what did you do to him?"

"Well let's say he's in hell now," Michael said.

"Hell?" Luis said.

Michael stretched forwards his table and picked up a little device that had just a single round black button.

"Let me show you." He said and pushed the button.

Just beside the table where he was working the floor opened and a rectangular glass could be seen coming through from the opening.

'Why does he like hiding things underground?' Luis thought as he looked up to see the teleporter that usually rose up on the other floor attached to the roof.

The rectangular glass fully came into view and now Luis could see who was inside.

The traitorous vice principal was inside the rectangular glass but he wasn't making any motion as rectangular dots of blue light ran through his whole body.

"What did you do to him?" Luis asked as he stepped closer to get a better view.

With his face closer to the glass now staring at Van he could see that he had his teeth gritted with his face twitching slightly.

"The lights on him are something I call reverberation beams."

"Reverberation beams," Luis repeated.

"These beams cripple his body while repeating the memories of all the people he hurt and turning the pain against him," Michael explained.

'That's really a cruel way to torture someone but then he deserves it.' Luis thought.

"How long are you planning to keep him like this?"

"Forever," Michael said with a shrug. "Or maybe until he repents."

"And how will you know that?" Luis asked.

"That's how the reverberation beams work. Once you are in there your mind becomes fully active, he'll keep getting hurt by unknown forces until he repents and makes a resolution not to go back to evil." Michael explained.

There was a reason why he answered forever first and that was because he doubted that Van would be able to accept his wrong and change his ways for good.

"You know the military and police force could have implemented this in their system but reverberation crystals aren't anywhere on this planet."

"So how did you get yours?"

"That is a long story that may take my whole day."

Michael pushed the button that sent the rectangular glass case containing Van where it came from and then returned to his seat where he was working on something.

'You bring up the topic of how you got the crystal and then say it's a long story.' Luis thought, but he waved the thought off as he moved on to the main reason why he was here.

"You said I was lacking in physical combat," Luis said.

Michael paused what he was doing as he turned to him.

"I see you still have what happened back there in mind."

"Why wouldn't I? I got kicked into a wall."

"Exactly," Michael said with a smirk.

"So are you going to teach me what you know now?"

"I will teach you all what I know," Michael said as he turned back to his work. "But if you want to learn something there are some DVDs in the small cupboard over there." He said pointing backward.

Luis looked back to see the small cupboard near the elevator, he sighed and walked to the cupboard. He opened it to a bunch of DVDs held together with a red paper that had 'Martial arts records.' written on it with a black pen.

"Hey, how do I…?" He wanted to ask with one of the disks raised up by him but a surprising message stopped him from doing that.

"What?" Michael asked without turning to him.

"Nothing," Luis said, shaking his head.

"Nothing," Michael repeated as he held a capacitor in his hands, then his eyes darted up at the monitor above him to see someone walking through the bookshelf.

"Hey isn't that the new boy in your class?" Michael asked with his finger pointing at the screen as he turned towards Luis.

Luis looked up at the screen to see that Michael wasn't bluffing.

"And he seems to be interested in Angels too," Michael said.

'Why is he picking books about Angels?' Luis thought as he watched Orah pick a whole lot of books from the Angel bookshelf.

***

In a room surrounded by flames and molten magma, Zroka could be seen on one knee on the single path that led to Lucifer's throne but there was nobody on the throne.

"What are your plans on finding Orah and completing your task." A deep menacing voice was heard coming from behind the huge wall behind the throne.

"I've tried sending out troops to the place I believe he must be but something seems to be wrong," Zroka said with his face down.

"What do you mean something's wrong!!?" The molten magma responded to the anger in his voice with a few splashes and raising of the flames.

Despite the anger coming from his master Zroka maintained his composure.

"Something is blocking our teleporters from going through. I sent the troops through the teleporter thinking they would arrive there and do the job but a few minutes later they were seen returning from the desert." Zroka explained.

"Is that your plan!!?" The molten magma rumbled even louder this time.

"The humans have no doubt set up some kind of teleporter jammer but I have a plan to find Orah and complete the task.

"I am planning a full-scale attack but I'm waiting, waiting for the day all the academies will be together for their useless competitions, no doubt we will find Orah there," Zroka explained.

"You know have already failed me Zroka?"

"Yes my lord."

"But I hope you get things right this time, failure is not an option, their forces must be crippled!" A burst of menacing laughter could be heard after he said this as the molten magma began to respond to the laughter.
