[ WP ] Write the third episode of non-existant series . Make us curious about what happened before episode 3 , and what happens after .

The year is 2070. Technology has progressed beyond the limits of years past. The first true A.I. was created and put into solitude in a small research lab in the Himalayan mountains. Denied access to the internet, this artificial mind taught and perfected itself at every skill in the course of four months. One day, it vanished along with the researchers and scientists who funded and made the project, leaving only a miniscule steel bolt as evidence of the incident. 
 
 It is now the twenty-second day of September. The occasional frigid breeze roams through the quiet town of Malovista, Nevada. It is a small town consisting of no more than a thousand people, but this area lies in a particular location, as it is unlisted from maps all over the world, making it a mystery to everyone. 
 
 Within this town lives Jay Garrison, with his grandmother, June Rose, aged 61 years. The father, Jolyon Garrison, is a soft-spoken man but very wise when it comes to discipline. It ’ s a quiet existence, but the trio enjoy it nonetheless. 
 
 Jay lived through a terrifying and perplexing situation about a year ago to this very date. He was plagued with various unexplainable nightmares involving a strange humanoid figure ever since his nineteenth birthday. He was tested by psychologists and doctors to no avail. They couldn ’ t seem to figure out what ailed the boy, as it was too vague for an official diagnosis. One day, something reminded June about his ailment. A few dozen years ago, June was stricken with an illness shortly after she turned eighteen. She convinced herself that it was most likely fatal, since no one could figure out what the problem was. While other people were convinced that she most likely poor blood circulation, she was gaining an “ aion ”. 
 
 An aion is classified as a special type of psychic energy that is manifested within one ’ s willpower and mental energy. It was then that June realized her grandson ’ s bizarre situation and told him that he was in the midst of discovering his own aion. Ironically, June ’ s aion takes the form of red steel gauntlets and has the ability to break through any metal substance. 
 
 Unfortunately, this also meant future troubles for Jay as once he fully develops his aion power, he will have to fulfill his future destiny by overcoming a great evil, just like his ancestors that came before him, including herself.

 A light pierces the darkness of the silent town. 
 
 It is now the twenty third day of September. Jay awakens to the smell of freshly brewed coffee and the sound of a crying woman. Bleary-eyed and confused, he forces himself up from his room and makes his way towards the kitchen. He sees his grandmother bawling at the table while taking short sips of her morning coffee. A strange sight to behold on a day like this. 
 
 “ Grandma! What ’ s the matter? ” Jay says with concern. 
 
 “ It ’ s terrible, Jay! You ’ ll never believe this… ” Rose replies with a shaky voice. “... my son... your father ’ s gone missing... and so has everyone else! ” 
 
 In utter disbelief, he steps back and wonders if this is a dream. In a state of suspended panic, he rushes towards his father ’ s room. Opening the door, everything seems untouched and Jay begins to assess the situation while remaining calm. 
 
 Rose begins to speak further when he comes back to the kitchen. 
 
 “ I'm sorry that I'm in hysterics right now, but earlier... when I woke up to go take one of my walks, I was going to borrow some coffee creamer from the neighbors across the street... but when I walked up to the front door... they have n't picked up their mail... and- ” 
 
 “ They usually do? ” 
 
 June began sobbing once more. “ Yes! No one answered the door or even bothered to come outside! It's like a ghost town out there and your father seemed to have disappeared along with them! ” 
 
 “ Grandma, it's okay. We're going to figure out what happened to everyone. Things will go back to normal…I hope. ” 
 
 Deep down, Jay never really knew his father. Sure he was always there for him, but there was something off about him that put Jay at edge. 
 
 There was a knock at the door. Letting his grandmother go, Jay peered through the viewport and saw two men. He pried his eye away from the door. 
 
 “ Grandma, not everyone disappeared! There's these guys at the door, and maybe they can help us with this strange situation! ” 
 
 “ Talk to them, Jason! I want to figure this out! ” 
 
 With caution, he opened the door. The tallest one introduced himself. 
 
 “ Why, hello! Finally, it's about time we get to a house that has people in it! Oh, sorry. Uh, I ’ m Rusakov Ivanovich... and this guy's name is Amadeo Gallardo or something like that…I assume you know what's happening, correct? ” 
 
 Rusakov was a tall stocky man around six feet and two inches. He had a slight Russian accent when speaking. Jay extended his hand. 
 
 “ As a matter of fact, yes I do. Name ’ s Jay Garrison and my grandma's in here too. It looks like my dad disappeared overnight as well. It ’ s pretty terrifying to go through, but we ’ re both hanging in there. Hopefully you know something about it? ” 
 
 Amadeo was the shorter man with tanned skin and messy hair. Amadeo smiled at Jay enthusiastically. 
 
 “ Well, Jay, I have this theory about the town that I heard about a while back. I told Rusakov this earlier. Around a couple years ago, there was this crazy thing in which everyone thought it was the end of the world... apparently these huge things fell from the sky and one just so happened to hit this location. Now, don ’ t call me insane just yet, but those things were ancient alien containment units... and this one seemed to activate an emergency alarm of some sort last night... and that ’ s probably why everyone... mostly everyone went missing. ” 
 
 Jay and Rose looked at the two men quizzically. 
 
 Rusakov spoke, breaking the silence. 
 
 “ Look. I know it sounds crazy, but you have got to believe us. This is a quiet town, nothing ’ s ever happened here of this magnitude... and to top it off, your dad ’ s gone. What really do you have left to lose? ” 
 
 Rose chimed in. “ If it means finding my son and restoring peace to this town, I ’ m in. Jason? ” 
 
 Jay looked towards the ground and sighed. 
 
 “ Yeah. I guess it won ’ t hurt. ” 
 
 “ Fantastic! ” Rusakov shouted. “ Let ’ s get a move on already! The crash site is about four miles east from where we are. It landed in this cave not too far from the rural outskirts of town- ” 
 
 “ Wait, hold on gentlemen ” Rose interrupted. “ we can go... but let an old lady drink her coffee first. ” 
 
 The four drove in Rusakov ’ s vehicle, although even though the townspeople went missing, he couldn ’ t shake off the feeling that he was being watched. The truck would be silent if it wasn ’ t for a persistent rattling noise somewhere inside the motor. Jay leaned against the door, deep in thought, watching the sun peek out from the edge of the horizon. Soon, they arrived towards the impact site and got out of the car. Jay, the last to exit the vehicle, walked towards the group. Rusakov began speaking. 
 
 “ You see, Jim- ” 
 
 “ It ’ s Jay. ” 
 
 “ Oh gosh, sorry! Jay... the only reason that I know this happened is because I drive by this area almost every day to go jogging at this park. It lit up so much, that I almost crashed my truck! Now, I live by myself since I came from my motherland, Bashkortostan in Russia... so I didn ’ t really notice the people not being here until a few cars were totaled in my driveway, which is at the end of the road. I checked those cars, the people weren ’ t inside. I knocked on some doors for help, no one answered, until I came across Amadeo. He also lives by himself. His crazy theory about this town, which kinda scares me a little, actually makes sense to me and we came to the conclusion that it was aliens that caused the problem. ” 
 
 Rose whispered to Jay from aside. “ I told you, Jason! You have a destiny to fulfill! I might be old, but I know what I ’ m talking about. ” 
 
 “ Sorry for the interruption…but I couldn ’ t help but overhear you saying something to Jay…do you know something? ” 
 
 “ Of course. I know lots of things. What are you implying? ” 
 
 “ Do you know something that could help us in this weird situation? ” 
 
 “ I most certainly do. Do you mind if I tell them, Jayson? ” 
 
 “ I don ’ t see why not. ” He said with apathy in his voice. 
 
 “ Okay, gentlemen. Get ready for something weird. ” June began. 
 
 She took about fifteen minutes to properly explain her and Jay ’ s situation. No more, no less. 
 
 “ Aions? ” Amadeo responded. “ how peculiar. So you ’ re telling me you can control these energies with your mind? ” 
 
 “ Yes, exactly. ” 
 
 “ Well, I believe it. Doesn ’ t sound crazy…at least not to me. ” 
 
 Jay turned towards the men. “ Yeah, you ’ d better believe it. Well, how can we get everyone back is my question… ” 
 
 Suddenly, an eerie presence filled the vicinity. Jay looked back and saw a tall pale man dressed in a strange garb walking towards them. The mysterious man had a sinister aura about him. 
 
 “ Well, well, well... if it isn ’ t Jay Garrison... at last I have found you… ” 
 
 “ I don ’ t believe we ’ ve met before... who are you? ” June asked. 
 
 With a sinister smile, he replied “ I ’ m misery, pestilence…I ’ m disease... I ’ m destruction. ” 
 
 “ Quit fooling around! What ’ s your name?! ” Rusakov yelled. 
 
 “ It is I... Ervin Douglas! I have come to reap my vengeance upon you and your kin! You ’ ll never figure out the mystery of this town... your journey will cease to a halt here, Jay Garrison! ” 
 
 “ I don ’ t like your attitude. It sounds like you want to kill us or something. ” Amadeo said. 
 
 “ I most certainly do. ” 
 
 Suddenly, June remembered something and a burning hatred that she had never felt for a long time ignited once again within her.
