“…Einstein?”

“That’s right, the codenames we have, are not just for fun, our codenames have something to do with our abilities, for example, I control fire, so my codename is Prometheus” Said Emily.

“If my sister is Einstein then….” I though for some time, but I didn’t to figure it out.

Emily looked at my face and chuckle.

“Well, if you think of Einstein most famous theory then you could get an idea…. However, because I am a nice person, I will tell you” Said Emily with a smile.

“The reason your sister codename was Einstein…. Is because she can “jump” through space” Said Emily.

“Jump? …. You mean like…. Going to the future?”

“Not exactly, she cant go to future, she can through planes in the space, it’s a little complicated but lets just say that she can't travel thought space” Said Emily.

“I don’t really understand it, but she is amazing, isn’t she?”

“That’s right…..however, if your sister is amazing, then you are beyond words” Said Emily with an enigmatic smile.

“…..What do you mean?”

“Well, let me continue and then you will understand, with your sister as the head, humans had hope, however, they had an overwhelming advantage over us, so we had to leave earth and search for a new home, we eventually found a new home 50 years later if was a small planet, smaller than earth, however, it had the conditions that we needed and it was out of their radar, so we settle there. We managed to survive, however, we knew that this was only a temporally solution, it will only a matter of time before they found us, so we decided to act; me and other parasites invade colonies of them to search for help and make new parasites, if was all going according to plan. Three years later, we prepare an all out attack to earth, we were ready, however, your sister insisted that we shouldn’t attack because she made a shocking discovery” Said Emily.

“What was it?”

“The parasites could evolve” Said Emily.

“Evolve?”

“That’s right, your sister discover that a specific kind of DNA could provoke a mutation in the worn, so they could evolve and improve the abilities of the parasite by at least 1000% and that DNA was…..”

“The Wegners DNA, right?”

“Correct, your sister prove this by making an evolution herself, after her abilities improved, she managed to gain another ability, however, we had a rat in our base…..Before we could prepare, they prepared and all out attack towards us, we fight with all we could….I saw how my comrades died one by one….at the end, only your sister me and three remain alive……….but before we could escape, they send their best weapon against us…. We could do anything”

“The first to fall was Mendel…. After that was Da Vinci”

“Then Galileo……”

“Your sister fight with all, but, at the very end, she couldn’t kill him, she simply couldn’t, him took the chance and captured your sister, it wanted to devour her” Said Emily.

“De-devour her!?”

“That’s right, he ate parasites like us and acquire our powers…. We call him, the butcher” Said Emily with a sad smile.

“THEN MY SISTER!”

“Before he devoured her…. She used her power to send me to the past, apparently she gained this ability after she evolved, that’s why I am here” Said Emily.

“What… what happened to my sister?”

“…..I don’t know” Said Emily.

“…..”

“After I came back, I knew what I needed to do, I had in my power some modified worms that your sister gave me, so I send them free, unfortunately, I don’t know where the descendants of my comrades were, so I could only do that, the only one that I knew was your sister…. She always told me histories of her little brother….. Its was the only time when she smiled” Said Emily.

I couldn’t stop myself from crying.

“Sis….”

“Anyway, something unexpected happen, when I release the worm… it actually split in two” Said Emily.

“In two!? Then, you mean… you are the one who infected me!”

When I realize the true I almost cough blood, so it was her fault!

“I am sorry, I knew that I did something horrible to you…. But…. I didn’t another choice” Said Emily while bowing.

“….no, sorry, I knew it wasn’t your fault”

I say while calming down.

Emily just looked at me and smiled while some tears appear on her eyes.

She grabbed my hands and said….

“Thank you”

I told all my worries and sadness for the past 10 years to her, she must feel guilty all this time.

………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………..

After some minutes, Emily whipped her tears.

“Sorry about that”

“No…. don’t worry”

“Anyway, now you know the truth and why I am here, I came to stop the incoming invasion, however….I don’t know how, they managed to come back here; the first time I notice them was a few years ago, when they kill one of the host, at first, I thought It was just a simple coincide, because the incident looked like the work of a rookie burglar, however, these “accidents” happened over and over again, So, to protect you, I search for you and your sister, when I became aware of what happened I knew that, after going for your sister, they will go after you, you have the Wegners blood in you after all, for some reason, after the accident, they became very interest in you, in fact, they left almost all of their agents to supervise you will they left your sister alone” Said Emily.

“Me, why me?”

“That’s also what I want to know” Said Emily while approaching me.

“Noah Wegner… who are you?”
