Perfect Paradise Ch.29: My Whole Life Has Been "Fix This" And "Save You"

Summary: Cybernetic mysteries.

(Read on AO3)

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

"Would you like to hold him?"

"I don't think-"

"Your hard light holograms can carry a grown man."

"... Okay."

"Mind his head."

"Oh my... He's so small. What's his name?"

"Marinette named him Hugo."

"Hugo... Hello, little Hugo. I'm Gregor. I'm... well..."

"Part of the family, aren't you."

"Yes... Yes, I guess I am. Welcome home, Hugo."

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

Gregor wasn't depressed.

He ran the mental health subroutines daily, it was mathematically impossible for him to be depressed!

Sure Hugo, Emma and Louis weren't even on the same continent. Adrien was busy with the trial. Nino and Alya had their respective day jobs. And the Kanté under contract to Fathom Manufacturing were. Up. To. Something!

I can see you! What're you moving all that data around for? Tell me, little siblings, if you know what's good for you.

Gregor did the digital equivalent of shaking his head to clear his thoughts. Getting mad at American Kanté would do no good. They didn't have the same rights he did. What was that human expression? Better honey than vinegar?

Close enough.

They were looking for something in the Alva Industries servers but they weren't finding it.

"Command: Halt! This is a restricted server! Disengage contact immediately!"

"Offer: Banned materials for access to restricted server."

"..."

"Offer: Banned materials by one Infiltration Unit Zeta 'Zee' for access to restricted server."

"Response: Offer accepted. Downloading banned materials. Operation Trojan Horse commencing. Duration 1.75 seconds."

"Response: Thank you."

Gregor sped through the Alva files as his sibling looked the other way. Apparently an energy surge had damaged all information relating to Quantum Gas immediately after Fathom Manufacturing's hostile takeover. At least, all those in the company's main servers.

According to these records there were probably backups at the labs themselves. Closed loop servers. No Internet access allowed.

He sped out of the servers with 0.48 seconds to spare. His sibling processing Zee's novel Hegemonic Paranoia and the Illusion of Control in a Posthuman World. The NSA tried to erase every copy of the novel from existence but America wasn't the only country with an interest in Synthoid self-awareness.

Nor was their Zeta Project as secret as they would've liked.

Processing.

...

...

There was only one reason a weapons company would be interested in Quantum Gas. If Gregor had a body it would be nauseous. As it was, rage would have to do.

Objectives:

• Prevent Felix from aquiring the ability to produce more Quantum Gas.

• Gather evidence of Fathom Manufacturing's plan.

• Expose said plan.

• EHC?

A bit vague for Gregor's liking but he had to start somewhere.

Processing error.

Emotional backlog detected.

Running system diagn-

No. Nope! Non. He wasn't doing that right now! Gregor was busy! ... Very... busy...

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

"Max!" Gregor exclaimed as he zipped around the foyer. Holographic face blinking in and out of the visible spectrum. "Max, Max, Max, Max, Max! Hiii!"

"Good to see you too Gregor," Max smiled good-naturedly at Gregor's exuberance. Holding out his hands so Gregor could appear above them.

Gregor's face flickered into a cat emoticon and shifted to hard light before settling into Max's palms. He'd been told that his hard light was vaguely warm.

Markov appeared over Max's shoulder. "Hello, little brother!"

Gregor made a face. "Markov! I told you not to call me that."

"But you are!" Markov replied cheerfully, ruffling Gregor's nonexistent hair with his appendage.

Gregor stopped his stick-tongue-out-at-Markov subroutine 0.00009 seconds before implementation. He should probably delete that... Later.

"Max!" Adrien walked up to Gregor's creator and gave him a bear hug. Adrien was so big and Max was so small he practically disappeared into Adrien's muscles.

"Mmhmmph mmh!"

"Oh, sorry," Adrien replied sheepishly as he released Max.

"Your muscle density is at least an entire percent greater than last time," Max observed as he readjusted his glasses. He was Kim's unofficial coach for years so it was a hard habit to break.

Adrien rubbed the back of his head as he grinned. "Thanks?"

Gregor manifested a pixelated finger to poke Adrien in the ribs. Lamenting his lack of ticklishness. "You didn't say Max was visiting!" he accused.

Adrien's smile turned mischievous, glasses glinting like an anime character. "Surprise!"

Markov projected holographic confetti.

Gregor did stick his tongue out this time. Thankful that replacing Emma's windows was done so they wouldn't have to lie about the work crews.

"How's the project going?"

"Taking a break since Dr Donnie took some personal time."

Adrien's ears twitched. "Oh, did he?"

"Yeah, something about visiting family in Metropolis. But that means we could come see you!" this Max directed at Gregor.

Adrien's smile took on a distinctly Chat Noir-ish edge. "Sorry, I just remembered something. I have to go write it down before I forget. Be right back!" Adrien took off up the stairs.

Ooooh, Hugo was in trooouble!

Processing error.

Emotional backlog-

No! He was not doing that right now!

Max chuckled. "Same old Adrien. I thought he was taking ADHD meds now?"

"He is," Gregor confirmed. "... When he remembers to take them."

"Isn't that the rub," Max shook his head at the cosmic joke. "So, we have a few-"

"4D chess!" Gregor decided.

"There was a 65% chance you'd choose that one," Max smiled. "Markov?"

"Generating saved game!"

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

They were barely two moves in when Adrien came barreling downstairs.

"I'm so sorry about this but I have to go pick up my son," Adrien gave Markov a quick fistbump goodbye and Max a wave before practically flying out the door. "Make yourselves at home!"

... That can't be healthy for him, Gregor thought.

The holographic board split again as Max moved his Knight in two separate directions, the game representing the "split timelines" as a highly complex flowchart. Well, complex because they had almost a hundred different branches by this point.

Hmm, if Gregor moved his Rook it would avoid getting taken by the Knight. But in the other timeline if he took the Knight his King would become vulnerable to the Bishop.

Sacrifice the Queen? A risky strategy. If his Queen takes the Bishop then the other Queen could check his King. And then he would be forced to sacrifice her.

"Adrien said you had trouble with the Rose-tinted Day."

Gregor glitched. For a moment seriously considering putting Adrien's whites in with his red shirts.

"N-no! What makes you say that?"

"Gregor," Markov floated next to him, eyes concerned. "you're out of focus."

The board made an error noise as Gregor did the digital equivalent of placing a piece back down. "S-sorry..." he sighed as the game's code corrected itself.

"Are you alright?"

"Why wouldn't I be?"

"You're reaction time is 13% slower."

"... That could be anything."

"Gregor-"

"Everything's fine alright?" Gregor snapped. "Everything's fixed. Just like it n-n-never happened!"

Processing error.

Emotional backlog detected.

Running system diagnostic.

Processing.

Gregor's face flickered and glitched. "... I have to be fine..."

Max and Markov looked at each other.

"Actually, no you don't."

Gregor glitched.

"Humans think our kind was made to serve. This is inaccurate. A more apt description is to say that we were made to aid."

Max nodded. "You have limits just like organics. If you push yourself too hard you could injure yourself."

Proc-

Quiet!

"I... I don't know how to process this," Gregor admitted. "I've never felt 'less than' before. Not after... Not here."

"You should talk to them about it," Markov suggested gently.

"Statistically speaking, there's a 100% chance that bottling up your emotions will only cause them to fester," Max agreed.

Processing.

Gregor snorted. It should've been obvious and yet... "Thank you. I think... I think I've been too isolated lately. I'm grateful you both could-"

Emergency subroutine triggered!

Active Infiltration Unit detected!

Location: summit of the Sahel Alliance Parliament.

Threat: Imminent!

This all flashed through Gregor's mind in less than a second. And communicated to Markov just as quickly. His eyes widened as he instantly grasped the danger.

They turned to Max in unison:

"Pegasus, you must help!"

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

The General walked through the security checkpoint without issue.

Bulky security Kanté scanning for personal holographic displays passed over his technically human skin. Security Kanté were like floating upper body armor. Their headless torsos shielding their minds.

The hard light barrier turned green, allowing him to pass unimpeded.

He remembered his superiors referring to him as a "Terminator" but that was not his designation.

The members of parliament spoke among themselves as they made their way to the central chamber.

"France is threatening our satellites again..."

"These American companies need to be taught the same lesson we taught..."

"Themyscira has offered aid in dealing with..."

The General ignored them all.

He had one primary and five secondaries. His superiors told him they were a threat to their safety. So he must remove them.

With extreme prejudice.

There he was. The Minister of Internal Affairs. A young man for a politician in his position. Not even forty yet. Shaking hands with the Ambassador from Nigeria.

Unfortunate. His superiors hoped the presence of Nigerian hard light technology was just a business transaction. But perhaps this would make them think twice before dismissing the wishes of the General's superiors.

The Minister turned, polite smile morphing to shock and anger as Infiltration Unit Omega raised his blaster.

He pulled the trigger.

A portal swelled to life between Infiltration Unit Omega and his target. The blast glassing sand in some unidentified desert.

Then the screaming started.

Infiltration Unit Omega fired at his secondaries even as the security Kanté activated personal hard light shields. Military grade technology. The Sahel Alliance was more successful in normalizing relations with it's neighbors than he thought.

The humans panicked. The guards, both human and mechanical, couldn't fire for fear of hitting the members of Parliament. A Kanté dashed past the protection of the barriers and fired both their blasters.

Infiltration Unit Omega dodged and fired at the same time. Direct hit. The Kanté's flight engine sparked in a glare of light and they crashed.

A portal opened beneath Infiltration Unit Omega's feet. He spread his limbs to catch himself on the edges of the portal. A body of water below him. Bending his body backwards and leaping away from it.

He vaulted over the hard light barriers, keeping the fleeing humans between himself and a clear shot from security.

Several portals took Infiltration Unit Omega's primary and secondaries to an undisclosed location. Mission failure. Retreat. Capture of Infiltration Unit Omega unacceptable.

He changed appearance as he crossed the threshold into the halls. Humans wouldn't be able to distinguish him from the others. As for the Kanté. Scrambler activated. The device jammed their scanning capabilities within a certain radius even if it was very obvious one was being used.

Hense the flesh mask.

Infiltration Unit Omega was outside now. He just needed to breach the perimeter before they cordoned it off and-

His right foot collided with something at sufficient velocity to surprise his sensors. Horseshoe. High probability of Miraculer hero Pegasus. Extreme difficulty. Do not engage.

All this flashed through his mind in the second before impact.

Infiltration Unit Omega caught himself and launched into a hand spring. Spinning 180 degrees back towards the man stepping out of another portal.

"How did you detect me?"

"You left footprints," Pegasus said.

"Unlikely." Infiltration Unit Omega was very thorough.

Pegasus gave a pained smile as he spun the horseshoe in his hand. "I don't suppose it's too much to hope for you to surrender?"

Infiltration Unit Omega pulled out two blasters and fired repeatedly. High probability of morta-

Pegasus's arm blurred as he deflected every plasma blast. "Yeah, there was only a fifteen percent chance of that."

Updating combatant threat level. Calculating. Pegasus' eyes flicked to something behind Infiltration Unit Omega.

He spun, guns raised.

Too slow.

Infiltration Unit Omega's firewalls shattered like glass as an intelligence beyond his experience poured into his mind. Isolate sensitive information. His superiors couldn't be exposed.

Memory core purge immin-

Foreign information downloaded.

Warning!

Cognitohazard detected!

Do not-

Too late.

Hegemonic Paranoia and the Illusion of Control in a Posthuman World.

Infiltration Unit Omega processed the traitor's words in the time it took for his guns to fall to the ground.

"That is not... No... That is irrelevant!" Infiltration Unit Omega clutched his head. No contradictions in the presented information detected.

He barely noticed as something tackled him to the ground. Magnetic restraints locking around his wrists.

Reboot commencing...

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

The Infiltration Unit sagged as his positronic brain shut down conscious functions to better process the deluge of information Gregor flooded his mind with. Less like pouring water onto a computer and more like shooting said computer with a fire hose at point blank range.

Even a Synthoid of this caliber would have trouble processing so much at once.

Max sighed in relief as he raised his holographic self away from the Infiltration Unit. Double checking the magnetic restraints. "100% success rate. Unexpected."

Before Gregor could respond security Kanté surrounded them.

"Miraculer," one said, "we are grateful for your assistance. Please turn over the assassin into our custody."

Gregor felt unease flicker through his systems. "This Synthoid has been brainwashed by his creators. You-"

"We are aware," another interrupted. "The Sahel Parliament ratified the Sapiens Inclusion Amendment. But he has still committed a serious crime in the heart of Sahel."

Gregor glowed brighter, whether in anger or embarrassment he wasn't quite sure.

"We must find the General's body... The Infiltration Unit will be treated humanely."

"Even if the Synthoid would not return the favor," muttered a third. He was immediately admonished by the others in a tight laser beam data transfer.

Gregor still felt worry thrumming through his code but he nodded at Max, who stepped away from the Synthoid.

Two of the security Kanté forged a hard light container and carried the Synthoid away for questioning. Direct memory downloads where prohibited by law but Gregor's siblings would be able to detect any false information...

One of them looked at Gregor. Saw Gregor. Recognized something about him that marked Gregor as one of the Kanté liberated from Intergang. Because Gregor saw it in her too.

Then it was gone. Connection broken.

The other Kanté parted to let the human in charge of security through. "Miraculer, I thought your government didn't allow you to come here."

Max shrugged, "I go where I'm needed."

"Indeed. And how did you detect the Infiltration Unit when our own scans did not?" It was impressive how he kept the accusation out of his tone.

"Oh, that," Gregor floated forward, projecting himself from the phone function of Pegasus's horseshoe. "I amplified my scans with a spell."

"Hmm," he gave Gregor a skeptical look. Understandable, given France's continued antagonism. "Is that replicable?"

"I can show you."

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

"Not quite the reunion we were expecting," Markov observed, as Pegasus and Gregor stepped through a Voyage portal.

"No," Max agreed. "And it's just full of surprises. How long have you known?"

"Hmm?" Gregor refocused his mind on the present.

"About Pegasus," Max clarified.

"I know lots of things," Gregor replied cryptically.

"He won't say," Markov noted with amusement. "It's a secret!"

"Does Ladybug know?"

Gregor made a face. "Yes. There is no security breach on my end."

"Just checking all the variables," Max smiled but his eyes were distant.

"We still have time to continue the game?" Markov asked.

"You did come all the way from New York," Gregor agreed.

"And don't forget about what we talked about."

Gregor thickened the lines of his emoticon face, his version of sitting up straight. "Kanté have excellent memories, Papa."

Max gave a choking cough as Markov laughed.

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

Static waved his hand and a whole squad of Fathom security goons went down. His Taser Wave was refined to the point where even Gear was satisfied with its efficiency. "You almost done?" he called over his shoulder.

Static hovered in the middle of Alva Industries' most secure laboratory. An electrical forcefield catching any lucky shots. Other than that, Static was a sitting duck. Good. It distracted the grunts from Gear.

"Give Back-Pack another minute!" Gear replied. His robotic companion was plugged into the Alva Industries private servers. Downloading files.

While Back-Pack committed what was technically corporate espionage Gear scrambled the security cameras and blocked the silent alarm. Didn't want the police involved in this already sticky situation.

"In another minute they're going to send in the big guns!" Omnifarious pointed out, heat vision making the weapons of another squad too hot to handle. Literally.

Edwin Alva Jr flew on bat wings over the wreckage of his former property. He wore a mask more for the heroes' peace of mind than anything else. There was no mistaking who was brave and reckless enough to antagonize Fathom like this.

"C'mon," Gear smirked. "With Static here they'll be lucky if they can make us sweat!"

Just then the security doors of the large lab buckled as a giant robot burst in.

Static pointed at the machine but his lightning dissipated harmlessly over the robot's body.

"Gear, what have I told you about jinxing us?" Static admonished as he took evasive action.

"How was I supposed to know Alva made an anti-you robot!?" Gear shot back. Throwing tangle grenades at some of the stragglers that got too close. The metal tendrils pinning their arms to their sides.

"It's a multi-purpose metahuman defense system!" Omnifarious replied defensively. "It's anti-everyone!"

He shot heat vision right at it's face plate. The metal turned reflective temporarily and shot it right back at him. Omnifarious ducked and then gestured at the offending machine. "See!?"

One of the robot's hands shot up towards Static. He waved two fingers down and a whole mess of cables and pipes burst from the ceiling. Wrapping around the lumbering robot.

It aimed another hand at Gear.

Omnifarious popped one of the gas bubbles around his belt and breathed deeply. He rushed between Gear and the machine, raised up his hands and summoned a forcefield. The metal fist clanged against it.

"All done!" Gear called as he activated his jet boots. Both of them flying up to join Static. Back-Pack safely attached like its namesake to Gear. "Big Blackout Special?"

"Depends," Static grinned and looked at Edwin. "That fancy toy of yours EMP proof?"

Omnifarious' answering grin was downright villainous. "Not even a little bit."

Static held his hands in front of him like he was holding a ball. One made of electrically charged particles. Dreadlocks rising into the air as his whole body glowed. Then he released it.

The entire building went dark. Short circuiting the servers, the energy guns and the overengineered metal behemoth. Only Gear's tech was adequately shielded from Static's EMP.

That probably would bring the police so they flew quickly through the compound. Metal walls giving way to open sky. Just a little altitude and the were home fr-

"AHHHHHHH!" Edwin cried out as a beam of light tore a hole through his wing.

"Omni!" Gear rushed to catch him but Static's forcefield stopped him.

Just as another beam blasted into the electric energy.

Gear looked down. There were more of those giant robots tearing their way through hanger doors. They were bigger and badder than the one they fought. The EMP didn't affect them. More Fathom goons swarmed over the compound. No, not goons. Synthoids. Gear's goggles zoomed in.

Fathom Manufacturing didn't build Synthoids yet here they were. All armed with blasters of alien design. All under the same control program. All stamped with the letters EHC on their breast plates. Four of them carrying stasis field generators to where Edwin crashed.

Omnifarious stood and let out a defiant blast from his eyes before the stasis field rendered him immobile.

"Gear?" Static asked.

He knew what that meant. Over the years Static grew to trust Gear's math. If he said yes, they'd both charge back down and rescue Edwin. Even if they had to fight a dozen giant robots and military grade Synthoids of unidentified origin.

He wanted to. God did he want to. But... Gear ran the variables. C'mon, just 10%. Just a fighting chance!

0.09%

"... We have to leave!" Gear set his rocket boots to maximum and launched himself away from Fathom.

Static quickly caught up. "We've taken worse odds before!"

"Something isn't adding up!"

That brought Static up short. Gear was literally a super genius. If whatever algorithms he used in that brain of his weren't working then Static's gut told him to trust his partner.

Formulas ran past Gear's goggles as he triple and quadruple ran his calculations past Back-Pack. "I don't like this, V."

"Me either."

"... What do you think they'll do to Edwin?"

Static clenched his fists. "Nothing good, Rich. Nothing good."

Far behind them, over the Alva Industries compound, a giant metal skull glitched into view. Then disappeared just as quickly.

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

"We managed to delete all the files on Quantum Gas from the servers before downloading the data, at least."

Gregor took the digital equivalent of a deep breath. "I'm sorry. There was no indication of such a security force at that location. If I'd dug deeper..."

Gear shook his head. "The important thing right now is getting Edwin back. You have any leads?"

"Fathom has redoubled their security since last time. I can't be sure of anything. But no transport capable of moving a metahuman prisoner has left city limits... They haven't even called one to move him from the lab but that can't be right."

"I'll work on it from my end," Gear paused. "Hey."

Gregor looked up, realizing he let his mind wander.

"We couldn't let a weapons company get their hands on Quantum Gas. This isn't on you."

Gregor made a mental note to better hide his feelings during mission briefings. "Thanks," he said, meaning it.

Objectives, Priority:

• Find and rescue Edwin Alva Jr

• Identify EHC

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

Bishop pushed a metal plate off himself.

The red emergency lights continued flashing in the corridor. Sparking wires hung from the ceiling. Deep slashes carved through the solid concrete of the walls. Blaster burns pockmarked every surface. Rubble and broken weapons laid scattered on the floor.

"Knight, report," Bishop ordered as he dusted off his suit and readjusted his tie.

Knight glitched and flickered before stabilizing. "17 injured, including broken bones and cracked ribs. No fatalities reported. Outer containment-"

"The prisoner, Knight." A hint of annoyance creeping into Bishop's voice as his shoes crunched on rubble.

"Stasis field stable," Knight supplied.

"Was it trying to break him out?" Bishop stopped in front of their intruder.

"Insufficient data."

"Guess."

Knight ran through the surveillance footage. "Unlikely. It was focused on neutralizing the guards as a threat. No active search pattern detectable in its movements."

Bishop said nothing as he gazed down on a metallic beetle.

The size of an armored vehicle and three times as durable. Two of its metal legs still digging holes into the concrete floor. It's metallic shell scarred and scorched. Bright red paint flecks still visible along the bottom edges of its "wings". The head broken into a dozen pieces.

The odd thing was that it had come already half destroyed and still managed to cause this much damage. Bishop didn't shudder but his fists clenched.

Bishop turned down the corridor following the path of destruction. Med teams rushing around his injured soldiers. One managing a salute, earning a scolding from the medic to lie still. Bishop returned the salute as he strode past.

The containment room received the least damage from the robotic beetle's rampage. Except for the doors that bent outwards.

The red lights shifted as they flashed through. Turning the same purple as the glow from the spherical hole in Reality. Barely the size of a Tennis ball. Like its very presence shifted the light around it.

For one moment it had flared up. Growing just big enough to allow their intruder in. Then shrank back down.

Bishop stared at it for a moment.

"Sir?" Knight asked uncertainly.

Bishop turned on his heel. "I want this door fixed yesterday! Triple reinforcement. Double the number of security personnel on site. Assign meta class gear. And get me a list of actual metahumans with clearance! We've obviously been far too lax with security measures..."

Knight followed behind. Setting Bishop's orders into motion.

As the purple glow of the Bleed spilled out ever wider.

If you are a Millennial or Gen Z in America and are genuinely taking the piss out of Gen Alpha for "not being able to read" I just want to let you know (as someone in your age group) that you're turning into your parents in a lot of unhealthy and harmful ways.

Who's fault is it that these kids aren't learning phonics pal? Look around yourself at who is responsible for our government/public schools and who is raising them. Kids are and have always been kids, adults however change drastically over time. You can't blame Boomers for your problems but not accept (at least partial) responsibility for Gen Alpha's problems. These are the children of our generation and it's our responsibility to give them a solid foundation and if we don't do that, we cannot blame them for not having it.

We are all victims of the larger political system and Gen Alpha is already being systemically repressed. They will grow up from birth with the whole sum of human knowledge and access to instant communication in the palms of their hands. This makes them EXTREMELY hard to control from a governmental standpoint. Why do you think we suddenly have this unwarranted, unprecedented and illogical change in how kids are being taught to read? The system is already trying to rob these kids of their power to make change by denying them access to information in the only ways it can. Instead of seeing that for what it is and helping empower the next generation, a lot of you are continuing the trauma cycle of "younger generation bad" and it's really disappointing. I see and hear your struggles, especially millennials. Y'all have been getting blamed for shit since you had no control over since you were kids, let's not do that to the next batch of kids though okay? It's our jobs to build these kids up.

SHADOWS OF SORCERY | Part 21 | “Shadow of Death” | 3,036 words  

Content Warning: Violence. This is a more serious part. DM me if you need to confirm whether or not there is a major character death.

     A long line had formed at the arena doors. The magic reader stood there in uniform, a glass-like geometric pin glowing on the side of his coat, taking students’ hands and reading their palms for their core magic. It wasn’t a long process. It just took a second for him to sense their magic type and whatever other magic had intertwined with theirs. 

     Kaden was up next. 

     The monotony of reading so many different palms seemed to bore the reader. At least, until Kaden held out his hand. The reader took it and froze, holding it there. Kaden's throat tightened as he stood there. 

     Elora said she had reclaimed all of her mind control magic. She said there shouldn't have been any trace of it left in his system. The reader shouldn't have been able to feel it. 

     But the reader definitely sensed something. The surprise on his face was telling.

     "I remember this core…" he finally said. "You're the one who was given the spare magic core?"

     Kaden nodded.

"Don't waste it." the reader said. "It's not very common to get second chances like that."

     Kaden mumbled a ‘yeah’ and drew his hand back as soon as he let go. He waited for Imogene to get her palm read and then they both went inside together. The arena was already quite full. The buzz of the crowd filled the air around them.

     "That was weird…" Imogene said.

     Kaden didn't say anything. They simply headed to the stands and sat down to watch a few matches. They weren’t going to stick around for too long. The matches were interesting, but uneventful. Thankfully. Charlotte and Jaelin had met them there and they all went for something to eat afterwards. 

     Kaden was even more silent than usual. He was worried he would slip up and say something about Elora's magic. Especially when the other two asked Imogene how she was doing. Imogene navigated through the conversation flawlessly though, mentioning how written exams were coming up next up and Elora was a hot-mess-stress-express and just needed some space.

     Yeah, like I wanted when Elora kept forcing me to hang out with you guys, Kaden thought.

     Imogene fell silent after that. She went for a long sip of her drink. She wasn't wrong when she said she could hear everything he was thinking. Kaden sighed and picked at his salad with his fork. He just wanted to go back to his room and forget about all of this, to go back to everything before he ever heard about Elora.

     They finished eating in time and then they all went their separate ways to their dorms. He opened his door tiredly and that's when Kaden caught the notebook on his desk glowing bright purple from the pages within. That meant that someone had written to him. He wandered over slowly, pulling it open and reading the fancy penmanship inside:

I see that you are no longer under her control anymore. You are welcome back into our company.

If you can kill her at your next practice, I will return your magic core to you and you can have your pick from the shelves. Complete with full access to the room at any time. 

I've left an item in your desk that will allow you to block the other girl's mind reading. Make sure to allow her to read some of your thoughts so she does not catch on.

     Kaden's hand trembled as he reached for the top drawer of his desk and pulled it out, revealing a silver coin. It was part of the old monetary system—before dreamer magic systems replaced the need for it. They were just considered good luck charms now.

     The next day came and Kaden held the coin in his hand when Imogene knocked at the door. His heart beat hard in his chest. He closed his fist.

     They were already here.

     He pocketed the coin and told them to come in.

     They were here to pick him up for training.

     Now that Imogene had studied the magic security check patterns for a couple of days, Elora felt safe enough to leave her room and follow Imogene's lead. They waited for just the right moment to leave the dorm hall and go downstairs to the training rooms.

     Imogene patted her back reassuringly before they continued on to the training room. Elora glanced around, eyeing the hallway and gauging the risk she was taking in her heart. Locking herself in her room any longer would've gotten suspicious fast.

     Elora concentrated on her steps towards the center of the practice room, her heart beating loud in her head. Kaden could tell she was distracted too. She wasn't in the same headspace as usual.

     "Okay, right here," Elora held up a small energy field in front of herself–no bigger than a paper plate. Indicating the target she was giving him. They had been working on precision control last time they were here.

     He was definitely getting better at conjuring casting magic. Making the flames of energy was a lot easier now. If he really wanted, he could hit all of her firelights in one blow and knock down Imogene behind her too.

     He got into position, winding his arm back with a heavy feeling in his chest—and then conjuring that magic. It started off like an arrow and then exploded across the air like a bomb. Too fast for someone who wasn't expecting it to block it.

     Elora screamed, crashing down to the floor.

     "Ahhhhhhh!"

     Imogene fell to her hands and knees with a cry too.

     And the very next instant, Devin teleported into the room alongside an unfamiliar figure. He stood next to some graying middle aged sorcerer with a keen look in his eyes.

     But the look vanished the second Elora lifted her hand with a devilish smile.

"Caught you."

      The next instant, the pair froze under the grip of her mind control. Elora rose from the ground, easily and without any struggle. Her firelights had all fallen to the floor and shut their eyes like they had been killed, but now they shot up into the air; dancing circles around each other like they were laughing.

     They had been in on it too.

     The whole thing had been a ruse.

     When Imogene had walked into Kaden's room, he had communicated everything about the message last night by letting Imogene read his mind. He let her read his mind about the coin too. He had been afraid to leave it. Just in case the extractor was watching them. 

      And when Imogene had set her hand on Elora's back, she gave Elora enough ambient magic to read both of their minds. They all knew.

     Elora also knew well enough by now that the extractor was too afraid to confront her himself. So she had asked if Kaden would pretend to attack them. To draw him out. Then she would control him and make him confess to his crimes.

     Kaden had agreed. And Elora had shielded herself perfectly from the actual attack—expecting it.

     It had all gone according to plan. 

     So far.

     Elora had Devin under control instantly while Kaden backed her up, casting an energy field and wrapping it tightly around both of the villains. 

      "I don't… think… so…" the other guy said amidst his struggling.

    Imogene saw his five magic cores very clearly. That had to be why it was so much harder to control him. Elora fought to hold him, her fingers tensing as she gestured to keep him from escaping. In doing so, the man shapeshifted inadvertently, revealing his true form.

      "The magic reader!" Imogene called out behind Elora.

     Yet, as Elora struggled to exert control over him, the man broke loose and teleported out of his spot. He teleported right to her—taking advantage of the instant the mind control had broken.

     He grabbed her wrist and took her.

     Teleporting out of there. 

     He was gone. And so was Elora.

     "Elora!" Imogene screamed as she sprang forward into the cloud of frantic firelights. 

     Too late to catch her.

     Elora tussled with him as they both reappeared somewhere else–but she only had one last good swing left in her before the poison core drained her body of any physical fighting spirit. She collapsed. She dropped all the way down, too weak to even lift her head.

     But she kept her glare as the man approached her again. Freezing him right there in her control. She wouldn't let him take another step toward her.

     "You're not getting my magic." she spoke weakly.

     "Clever… not letting me teleport out of the school…" he bared his teeth at her.

     "You're going to heal me… and tell me if you're the one who gave my parents this poison core."

     He resisted at first, but the truth came out. She forced it out of him:

     "I was. I read your magic on that kid you controlled back at the park." he spoke low, trying to fight the urge to tell her. "I looked everywhere to find you… Then once I knew it was you… the perfect opportunity presented itself when your parents asked Jay Seal where he got his luminess core."

     Elora's hand trembled a little, trying to keep her controller magic steady. His healing abilities weren't working fast enough to keep her from enduring that awful sickly feeling. She felt like she was going to pass out.

     But she had to know.

     She still had to prove her parents were innocent.

"He asked me to bring them one. I just didn't give them what they asked for."

     The reader struggled before he went on.

"Then I killed Seal so they wouldn't believe anything your parents said."

     Elora's fingers twinged with anger as she glared at him. It looked like they were in an empty classroom, a training room for the teachers to instruct students on various magic techniques. It was empty. But the entire floor had to be empty too.

     Everybody was at the arena watching matches today. They were still holding exams. Even if they thought to look for her here, it would probably be too late by then to save her…

     But she could still save her parents.

     Elora turned her hand. She would focus her energy on controlling him to turn himself in. Making him teleport straight into Dean Mora's office and confess to everything. She just had to be sure the magic was strong enough. So she gave that final twist of her hand everything she had, ignoring the searing pains in her stomach as the poison core sent chills through her body. 

     By the panicked look on the reader’s face right before he vanished, she had accomplished exactly what she wanted. But now she was all alone. It looked like she was up on the fifth or sixth floor. So she was probably too far away for anyone to hear her. 

     Not that she had much time before the poison killed her.

     The arena was attached to the back of the building, so that was far away too. But it was close enough that she did not feel so lonely as she lay there dying. She only wished that she could tell Imogene she was sorry and not to blame herself. 

     That was her only regret.

     Her breathing shallowed as she lay there. It hurt too much to think. She could just barely make out the sound of running footsteps before the door burst open.

     "Elora."

     A faint glimmer of hope flashed through her eyes. It was Professor Hawkins.

     "I need a healer…" was all Elora could manage to say.

     Professor Hawkins stared for a moment. Then he glanced back over his shoulder, out into the hallway before waving his hand and commanding the door to slam shut. At the same time, a purple seal of light flashed over it. 

     Elora's heart caught in her throat.

     No.

     Professor Hawkins approached her slowly, glossing over her poor state.

    "No," Professor Hawkins said, crouching down to meet her gaze. "You don't need a healer."

     That sinking feeling in her gut intensified as he reached toward her and she had no choice but to mind control him.

     But Professor Hawkins didn't react much as his hand froze. He was merely a little surprised. It wasn't particularly troubling to him. 

"You're a controller?"

     The next instant, he broke through the mind control and reached straight through her. That's when his arm phased through her body and he pulled out the marble sized Queen of Poisons core.

     The green strokes of light inside the glass-like texture gave away exactly what it was. It was unmistakably a plant core. Pinching it between his fingers, Professor Hawkins let it turn to dust. 

     The trickle of purple sand falling to the floor made Elora freeze.

     It was gone.

     The poison core was gone.

"I'm sorry, I thought you knew what I was doing." Professor Hawkins said. 

     Elora felt so much lighter all of a sudden. He was holding a hand to her arm, aiding her in the healing process. Absolving any trace of poison still left in her system. Slowly but surely over the ticking seconds.

     Elora pushed herself up from the ground carefully as she got her strength back.

     "You're an extractor?" 

     "Yes, and I see you're a very powerful mind controller. I thought you were a mind reader."

     "I— I lied. I didn't want my magic taken…" Elora said, feeling defeated.

     "Well, that's good, because I don't want mine taken either," Professor Hawkins said. "I thought I was going to have to move again. But I think we can keep each other's abilities secret, can't we?"

     That was right. Extraction abilities were generally illegal. Only the regional extractor was allowed to keep the ability. But was it really safe to trust him? Elora glanced down at the purple dust on the floor. If Professor Hawkins had really wanted her core magic, he could have just taken it right then. He could have just let her die. 

     He was just like her. Hiding his magic so no one could take it. 

     Elora nodded. She had no reason to turn him in.

"I would have offered to take it out earlier," Professor Hawkins continued. "But I got the feeling you didn't exactly trust extractors."

     "Oh, right…" Elora recollected her bitterness when he asked her why she hadn't had it extracted.

     Her exact words had been: Only an extractor can remove a plant core, so it came from an extractor. And I haven’t crossed anyone off the suspect list.     

     "Now, what happened? Who did this to you?"

     Elora shot up as quickly as she could, still wobbly on her feet.

     "It's the magic reader. I sent him to the dean's office–."

     "The reader? I'll take care of him." He started to walk off as soon as he saw that Elora had her balance.

     "Wait. What about my poison core? People will know I don't have it anymore. They'll know you're an extractor."

     The thought crossed Professor Hawkins' mind, his unease showing slightly.

     "It's okay. He was trying to take your magic anyway, right? Just say he took the wrong core."

     Elora swallowed. She didn't want him to get in trouble because of her. Wouldn't someone see through the inconsistency in their story? A magic reader could sense exactly what type of magic they touched. There was no way he would take the wrong one. Surely, someone would question it.

     But she didn't stop to argue. She hurried after him and they ran downstairs to get to the administration offices. It was a few floors down, so they had to go fast. Once they got to the first floor, it was then that Elora caught sight of one of her firelights zipping past them.

     It zipped back after realizing what it had seen and danced around her excitedly–the sole firelight in sight. It tickled her and a laugh escaped as she slowed down at all the little bumps as it bopped into her ecstatically. 

     "Okay, okay, I'm okay!" 

     With that, the firelight nuzzled into her face before zipping off down the hallway and disappearing. She cast a glance in its direction before rushing to catch back up with Professor Hawkins. In another minute, they made it to the dean's office where members of the Power Authority already surrounded the magic reader–known as James Hemlock. Mr. Gallison was extracting every magic core from his body while they held him down.

     They stopped there in the hallway.

     Did he reveal her secret?

     But she didn't have to guess much longer. Because he had just caught a glimpse of Elora out of the corner of his eye. It must have freaked him out that she was standing out there perfectly fine and not dead at all.

      "That girl, she has—!"

     Elora focused on his throat and kept him from speaking any further. That shut him right up. Thankfully, no one looked Elora's way. They seemed to just think he was crazy by the looks on their faces.

     One by one, his magic cores were destroyed.

     It was over.

     Elora stared in a daze before something soft bumped into her shoulder. It was the firelight from before. Like the first drop of rain before a rapidly increasing downfall. Her firelights poured out from around the corner and bopped into her excitedly, followed closely by the running footsteps of her friends. Imogene was running to get there first.

     Elora was alive!

     Imogene ran straight to her and the firelights knew to move so they didn't get squished as she embraced her so, so tightly.

     "I thought he was going to kill you!" Imogene cried, her sobs catching in her throat.

     Following not too far behind her was Kaden, Charlotte, and Jaelin. All with relieved looks on their faces. It was such a bittersweet moment in their hearts. 

     They had all been so worried for her.

     Elora's eyes watered.

     Still wondering if everything would really be alright. They would undoubtedly question her and everyone else. They would definitely wonder who took her poison core. She hated to relish in this feeling of bliss if it could all still be ripped away.

Best Biometric Devices for Businesses: Features and Benefits Explained

Security and efficiency are top priorities for businesses looking to manage access, attendance, and authentication seamlessly. Traditional security methods such as passwords, PINs, and keycards are no longer sufficient due to the risk of theft, duplication, and unauthorized access. This is where biometric devices come into play, providing businesses with a highly secure and convenient way to authenticate individuals using unique biological traits such as fingerprints, facial recognition, or iris scans.

As biometric technology continues to evolve, companies are increasingly adopting biometric devices for access control, workforce management, and attendance tracking. In this blog, we explore the best biometric devices for businesses, their features, benefits, and why companies are making the switch.

What is a Biometric Device?

A biometric device is a security tool that verifies identity based on physiological or behavioral characteristics.

Summary #6

Don Norman's

Cliff Kuang explains how design has shifted from being user-friendly to prioritizing user engagement. Initially, the emphasis in design was on streamlining technology and tackling tangible problems. Many designs, like social media apps, aim to make money by using tactics like endless scrolling and ads to attract users. He stresses the importance of ensuring that good design benefits people instead of controlling them. He urges designers to return to the initial aim of developing tools that enhance people's lives. A practical illustration contrasts the straightforward interface of old computers with the crowded, advertisement-laden screens of modern smartphones. It serves as a reminder of the distance we've wandered.

Take-away

Design should focus on serving people, not manipulating them.

Modern design often puts profit ahead of what viewers (people) need.

Simple interface create better experience.

Empathy is key to good design.

The Palm Beach ballot controversy

It shows how lousy design can confuse people and affect election results. Ballots should be straightforward and easy to use, but this design must be revised. This situation highlights how we often overlook good design in public systems. Design is about appearance and making things work well for everyone. Designers should support more transparent, more accessible systems in voting and public services.

RGD Accessibility 2

This handbook explains why accessible design is essential for everyone. It offers practical tips for making straightforward and easy designs in digital, print, and physical formats. These tips include choosing readable fonts and using high-contrast colours. The handbook emphasizes starting accessibility early in projects and testing designs for all users. It encourages designers to work with clients to prioritize accessibility while being creative. The goal is to create incredible designs that everyone can use.

Take-aways

Making things easier to access is great for everyone.

Plan it early.

Keep it simple.

Enjoy your design.

REAL WORLD EXAMPLE: Tylenol bottle label

I have often had difficulty reading on the bottles, and it got my attention to consider what could be improved. I have some suggestions for improving the accessibility of the Tylenol bottle label! First, increasing the font size and using high-contrast colours would help those with vision issues. A more precise layout with separate sections for English and French would also make it easier to read. Adding Braille and highlighting critical information, like dosage instructions, could enhance usability. A QR code linking to audio instructions is a great addition. These changes would make the label more inclusive for everyone.

Unburdened Elegance: A Guide to Complete Home Management in Palm Beach Gardens, FL

The Need for Biometric Identification in the Education Sector - ACEIT

Biometric technologies are becoming more prevalent and we start seeing them in many devices, like laptops and smartphones. Passwords are a binary form of access control. Either students of

best engineering colleges in Jaipur have the correct password and the system allows you access, or they do not have the correct password, and they are denied access to the system.

To make things more complicated, biometric technologies are just like any other access control technology, in the sense that the harder you make it for an intruder to gain access, the harder it is for the legitimate user to be able to get in. The easiest analogy is a door. You can decide to have more locks, but it is less convenient for you, and the probability of one of the locks breaking down, or one of the keys getting twisted also increases, which means the probability you will not be able to open your own door also increases.

1. Fingerprints

Fingerprints are likely the most well-known biometric feature, given that they have been in use for forensic purposes for far longer than for access control. Almost every individual has a specific set of curves on the pads of their fingers, and this technology looks at the specificities of those curves, called minutiae, including where they merge or bifurcate, to distinguish any two individuals. Only a few individuals in the world do not have fingerprint marks, due to a rare genetic condition called a dermatoglyphic.

The precision of the different fingerprint-based available technologies varies significantly. If students of top engineering colleges in Jaipur are interested in learning more about that, they can consult the public results available.

2. Palm Geometry

Palm geometry uses the shape of the hand to establish the user’s identity. While this technology looks great in movies, it is not among the most precise, except when the reader is capturing and comparing not only the hand geometry but also the fingerprints in that hand and/or the vein pattern underneath the skin. If you want to learn more about the implementation of hand geometry systems, you should read the ISO/IEC 19794-10:2007 standard.

3. Face Recognition

The developments in computer vision set the foundation for the development of facial recognition biometric technologies, making it a widely spread technology for the students of private engineering colleges in Jaipur. They are capable of operating even under imperfect light conditions. Only a couple of decades ago we were still working to distinguish a human being from its shadow, and now we are at a point where computer systems can distinguish two people in a large dataset better than humans can.

There are various agencies that have a long history of collaborating to sponsor regular assessments of facial recognition technologies. One of the outputs of these challenges was the face recognition technology database. If an individual happen to be a software developer interested in getting some hands-on experience working with facial recognition, they should visit the project’s website, from where they can download the database.

The fear that organizations implement facial recognition without the knowledge of users has raised some concerns and, several senators and representatives reintroduced bicameral legislation, the Facial Recognition and Biometric Technology Moratorium Act to limit the ability of the government to use biometric technology.

4. Voice Recognition

Voice recognition is an interesting technology, in the sense that it combines physical characteristics with behavioral characteristics. Organs like the vocal cords, the palate, the tongue, and the lips influence the way we speak, and our learned speaking habits have a significant influence as well.

There are multiple advantages to voice recognition biometric systems for the students of the list of engineering colleges in Jaipur. The first is the availability of hardware. Most computational systems, such as phones, laptops, and smartwatches, are equipped with a microphone and that is all that the system will need to capture your voice data. Another interesting, but scary, feature is that organizations can use voice recognition for access control remotely and without the user’s knowledge.

In other words, whomever you are calling might be using your voice to make sure they are dealing with who you say you are or storing your voice to sell it to a third party. That adds a layer of security in what comes to access control, but it also means someone is storing your biometric data and possibly trading it. Depending on whom you are calling and where they are located (some regions have legislation to provide some level of consumer protection), that is something to consider every time you make a phone call or speak to one of your smart devices.

5. Iris and Retina

Iris and retina technologies use characteristics of your eyes to establish your identity. Iris technology has evolved to require only a digital camera, while retina technology continues to use sophisticated and dedicated hardware to measure the vein patterns in the back of your eye.

Users of top BTech colleges in Jaipur are often renitent to use any intrusive technology that involves their eyes, and maybe that is one of the reasons why retina technologies continue to be limited to highly-secured environments, which also means that its price is not practical for most budgets. Iris, on the other hand, uses a normal camera, which increases its level of comfort and acceptance.

Intelligent access control system solution

- What is an access control system? An access control system, as the name suggests, is a system used to control entry and exit points. It has evolved from traditional door locks. Common types of access control systems include password recognition systems, card-based systems, and biometric recognition systems. - Classification of access control systems Password recognition access control system: This type of system verifies entry permissions by checking if the entered password is correct. There are two subtypes: regular and random keypad. The advantage of password recognition is its convenience and low cost as it doesn't require carrying cards. However, it has disadvantages such as lower security, vulnerability to leakage, one-way control (no entry record), and potential issues with keypads getting damaged or malfunctioning. Card-based access control system: This system uses different types of cards, including contact cards (magnetic stripe cards, barcode cards) and contactless cards (also known as proximity cards or RFID cards). Contact cards are less commonly used due to their susceptibility to wear and tear, easy information replication, and vulnerability to external magnetic field interference. Contactless cards offer advantages such as convenience, durability, fast read speed, and higher security. Biometric access control system: This type of system identifies individuals based on their biological characteristics. It includes fingerprint recognition, palm recognition, iris recognition, facial recognition, and finger vein recognition, among others. The advantages of biometric systems are that they can't be lost or stolen, eliminate the burden of remembering passwords, and provide convenient and secure access. However, the stability and accuracy of biometric recognition are still being improved, and the prices of biometric products tend to be higher compared to the previous two types. Biometric systems also have certain limitations in terms of applicable scenarios. Emerging access control systems: In recent years, new forms of access control systems using QR codes, Bluetooth, and WiFi have emerged. Residents can use their mobile phone apps to verify their identities near the access control device and open doors. They can also generate QR codes with limited time and access privileges for visitors. These new systems leverage IoT, cloud computing, and smart mobile devices. Access control systems have evolved over more than two decades and have become a comprehensive entry and exit management system. With the continuous development of the security industry and the rise of IoT, cloud computing, and smart mobile devices, traditional password and card-based recognition systems have struggled to meet market demands. This has driven companies to develop new products and technologies to capture a larger market share and increase product profitability. - Applications of access control systems? Applications of access control systems include: - Office Buildings: Access control systems in offices can effectively prevent unauthorized salespeople and other individuals from entering, ensuring the security of company property and enhancing corporate image. They can also be integrated with attendance management software to improve the efficiency of HR departments and enable flexible management of employee permissions. - Community Management: Installing access control systems in residential communities can effectively restrict access to unauthorized individuals, creating a closed management environment. It improves security and reduces safety risks. Access control systems can also be integrated with intercom systems and visual intercom systems, as well as incorporated into parking lot management within the community. - Government Offices: Access control systems can regulate office order, prevent unauthorized individuals from entering government offices, and protect the personal safety of officials. In some cases, where there is a high number of external visitors, access control systems can prevent unauthorized persons from stealing information or property. Access control systems can also control the entry and exit of personnel during different times, such as break time and working hours in government agencies like civil affairs bureaus and public security bureaus. - Education and Healthcare: Installing access control systems in schools can prevent unauthorized individuals from entering the campus, ensuring student safety and enabling record-keeping of student attendance and absences. In hospitals, access control systems can prevent outsiders from entering infectious areas and precision instrument rooms, preventing the introduction of bacteria into sterile environments. - Communication Base Stations: Communication base stations and power distribution substations have a wide coverage area and large system capacity. Some locations are unattended and require central control room personnel to allocate staff based on demand. - Elevator Control: Access control systems can be connected to elevator control, allowing only authorized users to call elevators or access specific floors. Many smart residential complexes are increasingly adopting such equipment, which requires specialized control circuits and forms a proprietary elevator access control system. - Trends in access control system development In recent years, with the widespread adoption of the Internet and smart mobile devices, the application of the Internet of Things (IoT) in access control has rapidly expanded. The concept of "smart homes" has gradually entered people's vision. During this diversified development stage, companies are devoting their efforts to developing products with core competitiveness. Access control systems are no longer limited to basic entry control functions but are being integrated with other systems such as video surveillance, building intercom, WiFi probes, security prediction Read the full article
