MAUnsealed: Psyche, the Agent of YURI

Y.U.R.I.
No one knows the acronym and the private agency’s hide-out. People just believe that it exists. I was once a member but I made up my mind.
I woke up in a wheel chair and bright lights shuttered my eyes. There were blurred visions of chatting people surrounding me and I was their subject.
“Comrades, I present to you our very victor, Psyche”
And everybody clapped with ease and amazement.
I don’t understand. Everybody does their work and gets an incentive but not this obvious. There’s something wrong. This celebration is a mystery.
Yesterday, I landed to India for an undercover mission. I need to retrieve Mahabhatur, a child prodigy, who was abducted by hideous scientists. They wanted to replicate the boy’s DNA and make another miracle child with the same ability. Of course, you can’t survive and you won’t be able to save a child if you don’t have the strength and knowledge of defense.
Cameras are just alternates for watchmen who waste my time to reach Mahab’s chamber. A simple trick is yet to be done. Using an invisibility cloak, an invention imported from Japan, I made an attempt to enter the boy’s room. The sudden silence trembles me. This must be a trap.
The scientists built the whole laboratory with virtual design in which they use engineered goggles to see the actual. It scanned the whole room with gamma radiation. This destroyed my cloak and revealed me. Just like in movies, I am now in a serious kick-off-enemies. For all I could remember, I carried the child with my own bare hands and we made it through the exit. After that, I felt dizzy. We were getting near in a chopper and a huge bombardment wrecked the laboratory.
Meanwhile, in my own wheelchair, I stood up unsure. I have just decided to quit as an agent. I whispered to my chief who was right beside me but he didn’t take it seriously. He laughed.
Something is really wrong at this juncture.
Late at night, I wandered the streets and took pictures. At the first place, I knew that they’ll be setting up other agents to look after me. Right after taking pictures, I made a stop at the carnival.
“Why did YURI hired you to chase me?” I said to those two guys who were 1 ½ meters behind me.
They stared at each other. It was then clear to them that I already knew that they were following my tracks. I told that I’ll still be loyal to YURI and I got no reason to leave. Well, that clarified their minds and later, they fade away as more crowds were approaching.
Five minutes and three seconds past. I returned to the quarters and printed my shots. All lights went off except in my room.
Midnight, guards knocked at my door and found no one inside. Yes, I escaped. I was a liar. It’s up to them if they can solve the mystery I left. , Hundreds of scattered photos, hundreds of bizarre evidences.
I took a trip to a certain place where they can’t ever find me. It was only yesterday when the whole town looked classical, but now, it was modernized. That’s why I captured pictures to make my own map of escape. I disguised by the name “Sky”. Psyche to Sky. I cut my hair with my own knife and dressed up like a sassy girl.
I started a new life and entered an academy being an engineering student. There, I met a dedicative writer whose name is also Psyche. It would be coincidence if I still use my old name. She became a friend.
At the library, we took our seats and she opened a conversation.
“Have you read the news?”
“News?”
“The YURI agency just lost its 11.2 billion dollar project.Geez, they always make history”
“Project?”
“Yea. Some sort of cloning I think. I’m a huge fan of that YURI. That’s why I wanted to be an engineer. Hoping that they’ll discover my inventive ability.”
“Dream on. If I were you, I’ll shift. You love lit, so marry it. There you could invent imposs-“
“Hey wake up bullcrap. Don’t cross the line. I really have the ability. An engineer and at the same time, a writer.”
Were just like that. We criticize each other but we’re still friends. From time to time, we were great partners topping in our class.
One night, we went to a restaurant. As we enjoy the cuisine, we heard an alarming sound of a thunder.
We never expect for a rain. The ground suddenly released its vapor and that made up our minds to stay inside.
In the next day, most of the students from the academy were coughing and sneezing. In addition, they were also spitting blood. No wonder that the whole city was triggered by the vast spreading of a disease. It became epidemic. The only way to stop it was the said vaccine of the R.E.T.S, another agency who dumps the fame of YURI.
All of us were quarantined in the academy’s private hospital. My friend was seriously ill. She described from the time she was vaccinated, she looses her self control. Something manipulates her body as well as her mind. So I thought that these RETS was planning to overcome everyone’s body system.
I did take the vaccine but I felt no effect. I wasn’t positive for the said disease. I’m still healthy and nothing to worry. For the first two to three hours, the vaccine indeed made the people to be at its normal state. But as it exceeds time, they become more ill and not like themselves anymore. With my conscience, I turned back for being an agent again. I smashed every vaccine breakthrough made by the RETS and intended to find a cure.
I made a stop at the highest peak of a tower and took an overview. The city was covered by a thick grayish fog. And there arose a man named Rex. He wears mask and his eyes were perfectly deep blue. He looks familiar. Yet, he confessed that he was my fiancé for the past 80 years. I was shocked and puzzled.
My memories suddenly came back little by little. It was a short headache.
Wayback, we were just kids chosen by YURI. Just like Mahab,Rex was a child prodigy abducted by scientists and was retrieved. He decided to join us and there I met him. My father, the right arm of the founder, chose me to be Rex’s partner. We were trained for our survival in a virtually designed world and 36 of us remained out of 57. The rest did not die. They were safely brought home alive with their parents. From the moment they thought they were dead, their memories inside the agency quarters were brainwashed. They really did not remember anything.
As we grow, I did not notice that Rex was actually dating me. I fell in love with him. His physical features and his beautiful soul attract me. He was like a model not a wrestler. He has a stunning accent that I really like. Most of the time, I mock at his way of speaking and that makes him think that I was teasing. Though he was too serious often, he cracks a joke and shares his cute and simple smile. I am comfortable with him. It’s good to have him as my partner in the agency. It’s just too crazy to think that he collects photos of me and tattooed a symbol of my name at his chest.
He was about to propose when our chief left an undercover mission for me to retrieve a child from India. Before taking my flight that night, I offered love to Rex and made him my fiancée.
In the next day, I went to India. And that part was retold by Rex. Without my knowledge, he followed me and he’s the one who set up the bomb inside the lab. In able to escape, he captured a gadget inside an unauthorized room. It was one of Mahab’s precious inventions, the gadget was capable of teleporting him outside with just one push of a button. There he saw me running carrying the child. I fell down to the ground. A scientist shot an antidote at my back which made my red blood cells turn to white. My body organs also were poisoned and my veins were hardened like a fragile glass. Rex was the one who retrieved us to the quarters.
“The next thing that I’m gonna say to you would be unacceptable but it is possible. They repaired your body and put you to the freezer chamber for 80 years. You were reborn to be the first bionic project of YURI. You are their perfect 11.2 billion dollar project. It was your dad’s whole idea anyways.”
“Unbelievable. Unbelievable. This is what my friend was talkin’ about. Did that teleport stuff brought you here? Because I’m wondering how you get here. Its past 80 years Rex. You must be old. You must have died. And you must have been married to someone.”
“Yes. I am married to someone. And its still you. It’s gonna be you. Mahab upgraded his teleport gadget with varying time. His secret was his own time machine. From that, I travelled through space and time finding my bride. And I also came here to tell you that you are the cure. Your blood is being designed by your father as the cure for all diseases. It rehabilitates the bad cells and a powerful stabilizer of the body system. A single drop of it can heal a single person at any rate. The RETS did this epidemic all along. They forced the clouds to rain and the sudden release of vapor from the ground triggered the bacteria which became part of the inhalation”
“I don’t get it.”
“You know water cycle right? The RETS spread nanotubed seedlings in the sky while condensation process. The seeds were contaminants of mixed bacteria. Through lightning and water, they multiply. The vaccine was another drama. It activates the bacteria inside the body and turns into a puppet. You know what I mean? The global database designed by the engineers of RETS manifest this nanopuppets. That’s why people loose their self-contro-.”
I kissed Rex and thanked him for not getting married. The conversation was enough to take things possible. We made a plan and departed after a conclusion.
Rex begs for an authority to a nearby air force to borrow a chopper by presenting his YURI I.d. He drove his way as I waited for him in our hospital. I let Psyche, my friend, to take the first treatment of my blood. Later, she felt the warmth of being herself again.
Not knowing that she has a secret knowledge about multiplying cells, she gathered 2mL of my red blood cells and examined the compatibility to her chemical multiplier. The results were fine. There were no side effects. She mixed it up producing half liter identical of my RBC.
I asked her how she came up with such formula. She answered that it was his father’s idea.
It was Mahabhatur, who died at 84th age. Obviously, her daughter was named by a savior during his young age. And it was me, Psyche who disguised as Sky. I never did make an attempt to discuss anything to her. We are in a middle of tragedy.
I have just sacrificed quarter volume of my blood. Enough to shower and treat people in the city by riding the chopper. The city was blushing as the residents rejoiced their sudden treatment. It was a success but after few moments, five jets from the RETS were chasing us. They shot the propeller and it burned at its fast rate. We landed at a park and hurried to escape. We fell down on our knees and a massive explosion happen behind.
One thing left me for being vengeful. A man from a helicopter shot an antidote at the back of Rex.Same effect which killed me past 80 years. I have no gun to avenge him. I also turned weak after the blood procedure. Helpless. My only strength was to cry.
Suddenly, two of the jets were being fired by another group. Thanks to YURI. They chased and hunted every aerial vehicles owned by the RETS.They also helped the government to seek the hide-out of this devilish agency and left no loyal workers alive. YURI captured me and brought me back to the hidden quarters along with Mahab’s daughter, Psyche.
They left me in a new room guarded by new recruit agents. Psyche was also in a room next to mine.
The moment we entered YURI, she knew my true identity. She was amazed and a little bit surprised.
Midnight, I went to my friend’s room. I wasn’t expecting that she was writing my story throughout. She noticed me by my shadow and spoke.
“Sky. I mean Psyche. Thanks for saving Papa. I knew you were extraordinary. I know it’s been a dilemma out there lately. I have a secret and I know that you deserve this. Your iris is the only access for opening Papa’s sacred room. There hides a blueprint and his gadget. The same thing that made Rex up to this year. I heard rumors that Rex gonna be their second project. It would take another 80 years for you guys to get married. Well, that’s hard partner. ”
“Mahab’s Iris Scanner. Rex. Another bionic project. The only way to travel up to 80 years is your papa’s invention. I can get through this. Piece of cake. ”
“I think. I’ll give you my GPS. This thing will help you locate our house at Italy. Don’t get caught. Good Luck.”
So my friend knows something how an agent works. A dedicative writer, an engineer and a new recruit spy. Just like his father, YURI discovered that she has a stunning ability enough to be the next me. Since things here were done for me, I left. And that explains my sudden disappearance travelling through a special time to my future husband.
