news Victoria? Have you been watching TV and reading the newspapers since I’m not allowed to do that?”

  He stared at Victoria who appeared to gulp by her throat motion and saw her form a guilty look on her face as she spoke sounding nervous “Well yeah I have in the morning after I get up from bed while you’re sleeping. The servants specified to me that they were ordered to keep the TV unplugged along with keeping the newspapers away from you when you’re up and around.”

  He bared his teeth fisting his hands feeling himself getting angry as Victoria kept speaking still using the nervous tone “The servants have been tightlipped on who gave the order but I suspect it wasn’t from Grandfather but someone else who told them to keep you in the dark and keep you from leaving the penthouse earlier.”

  He snarled an angry sound feeling himself getting more furious as Victoria paused to gulp and spoke “That someone has told me to not to tell you some specific things I heard on TV or read in the newspapers. I was told to tell you all I told you.”

  He gave off a roaring sound and felt Willow’s claws digging into his thighs again. He snarled an angry sound as Victoria darted out of the room slamming the doors. Jinks angrily looked down at the cat and reached a hand as the doors slammed open which he looked up withdrawing his hand to stare with annoyance Barry flaring golden eyes with Tatiana frowning next to him.

  Jinks spoke willing himself to calm “You had something to do with this isolated kept in the dark joke did you Barry?”

  Jinks saw no reaction from Barry who kept his eyes flared golden along with Tatiana still frowning who folded her arms.

  He felt the cat digging her claws into his thighs again as Barry spoke with a firm voice tone “I know you better than you know yourself Jinks. I know how you think and how you react to situations including your connection towards Lance Richard, your father.”

  He felt his anger simmering to form a bewildered expression on his face as Barry kept talking “I know how you work with Lance in things and I know how you act from them. Believe me that kept in the dark joke is not a joke but a serious matter.”

  He heard Barry speaking in foreign language felt his boiling anger gone from him leaving him in a calm mood as the cat adjusted her position on his lap to sit on her side while purring contently.

  He frowned and spoke “Just who are you really, Barry?”

  Jinks saw Barry’s eyes stop flaring golden as the Builder spoke “Just someone who’s older and wiser to handle situations calmly without causing harm.”

  He felt himself confused to speak “That doesn’t answer my question, Barry.”

  Jinks stared at Barry who ignored his remark went to the chair next to his and pulled out the book from between the chair and cushion before sitting down leaning back.

  He watched as Barry placed the book on the table between them and spoke “Tatiana, handle Victoria will you?”

  Jinks watched as Tatiana faded from view with the doors slamming shut sounding in his ear as he looked at Barry with a frown on his face.

  Barry spoke sounding serious “That Human God blared by the tabloids was referring to you which they were forced to identify as you after Donald blabbed it to his newspaper and local news station he owns.”

  Jinks stiffened hearing that as Barry kept talking “The city’s local news had a field day discussing this subject repeatedly over and over with numerous city people coming forward claiming to know something about you. One of the tabloids revealed that they got the Human God information from some old almanac books with clear pictures of you.”

  He frowned remembering the almanac detailing him as a football player in High School as Barry continued talking “The tabloid in question did some background checking on you via the internet along with paying people workers in city halls in Connecticut and New York State to share their records on you illegally with them which they discovered no list of death found realized that they had a hot story on their hands started blaring this Human God status in their paper which other tabloids followed suit copying them.”

  Jinks groaned loudly as Barry paused to clear his throat then continued talking “The tabloids and the local news managed to figure out that the Jinks Montreal who once held the King position and you were the same person including figuring out that your deathless and ageless from leaked detailed historical documents from the Master Organization courtesy of bribery done.”

  He felt himself getting annoyed as Barry spoke “The documents according to the tabloid list your actual birth date and detailed that you were once declared dead at the age of twenty five after shot by a member of the organization but some medical test revealed that you were actually sleeping which went on for twenty years with your body slowly healing from injuries suffered. The tabloid also mentioned you waking up and starting life all over again and taking Karate to compete in tournaments becoming a champion in that while getting a black belt which there’s an internet site on Karate tournaments backing that up that has suddenly become popular judging by the hits it received after the tabloid ran that story detail. Also the tabloid mentioned there being a document detailing you having some deity like powers without specifically saying what they were. The tabloid detailed that you had an ability to change your eyes from Human like to all black and used that to indicate that as a mark saying that you were given that ability to mark you as a Human God.”

  Jinks willed himself to calm as Barry paused to clear his throat again before the Builder kept on speaking “I should tell you that after you were identified the internet started getting more hits in search engines focused on you. There’s a website dedicated to worshipping you as some deity lord while emphasizing that you answer to a deity god named Lance Richard who you were blessed with his appearance and power abilities while being marked by him with your eyes changing ability.”

  He sighed hearing that figuring out to he that it was the Master Organization that put up the website as Barry paused to thump his cane two times on the floor. He heard the doors open looked to spot Tatiana walking into the room with a questioning look on her face.

  He heard Barry speak “Did she react like I told you? And did you handle what I told you to do?”

  He frowned wondering what was with Barry’s questions as Tatiana spoke “Yes and I handled it as instructed.”

  He heard Barry speak “Good.”

  Jinks watched as Tatiana bowed then backed up shutting the doors which he looked at Barry who frowned before looking at him.

  Jinks frowned as Barry spoke “There’s another thing involving that incident Hettinger did to you including you causing the earthquake doing it twice. The press had a field day talking about you having powers due to your Human God status. The hospital where you were staying first leaked out through bribery a video recording of you having some lightening show while an earthquake was happening. Local scientists went on the local news shows blabbing that the two felt earthquakes originated from your location which they figured out that you were causing them. Some of the people attending the fight feared you would retaliate against them had you put in an asylum as a result due to them being afraid of you.”

  He gave up a nod during the talk as Barry continued talking “Your daughter Victoria was tested by doctors at the asylum manipulating her to see if she inherited your earthquake power with no results of that happening no matter how she tried.”

  He groaned feeling himself relieved as Barry paused then the Builder spoke “That sensor device implanted in you was to monitor and track you just to see what would happen should there be another earthquake courtesy of you causing it. The people I warn you are nervous about those earthquakes hence you having a sensor.”

  He rubbed a hand on his chest over the device implanted in him as Barry kept talking “The first earthquake that hit was at a four on the ten numbered scaled with one being not bad and ten being very, very bad. This earthquake was enough to cause minor damage but enough to be felt. The second earthquake that hit was a number six enough to cause
more damage. The doctors told the public with a detail report when those earthquakes hit that you were drugged and not at full strength.”

  Jinks sighed as he lowered his hand as Barry spoke “That sensor was implanted in you because those people are nervous on how bad the earthquake will be if you caused one while at full strength. Their worried that the earthquake will be a ten or above on the scale causing terrible devastation as in what happened to the city when they were attacked before the transfer to Shadan. So the sensor was implanted in you to leading to your heart organ to zap you unconscious if the monitors sense an earthquake that is higher than five on the scale.”

  Jinks widen his eyes and brought his hand to the implant on his chest in a fast motion as Barry nodded his head pausing from his talk.

  He felt himself getting annoyed as Barry spoke “You can control the earthquakes without the lightening show, Jinks. Just do it mentally and it’ll happen. You can mentally transfer your power to different locations in the vicinity of the city by thinking of that but there are something you must do for me involving helping Hettinger.”

  Jinks spoke lowering his hand “Why should I help him for what he did to my daughter?”

  He saw Barry’s eyes flare golden gulped as the Builder spoke with a firm tone “I insist for it’ll
