<p>Just at this point, the platform came to a slow shuddering stop. Jake was now 20 meters above the ground and he could see more of the sphere than he had previously been able to. ""It was a sphere. A perfectly round and smooth sphere."" Jake carefully placed his hand on it. ""Apart from it's size and the knowledge of how it arrived here, there wasn't anything remarkable about it."" Jake removed his hand again. ""Or was there? Jake wasn't sure, but for a split second after removing his hand, parts of the metal where his hand had touched seemed slightly discoloured."" As the person chosen by the board to accompany the combined militaries to study the sphere, Jake had to closely follow any little abnormality he detected. As such Jake immediately started jogging towards the tech truck that controlled all the cameras and sensors that had been set up.</p> <p>(Jake) ""Hey Seph""</p> <p>(Seph) ""Hey bro, whats up?""</p> <p>"I need you to pull up a couple of images for me. I thought I saw something for a split second, but it was to short to really know.""</p> <p>"Alright."" Seph responded, and started punching keys at a rapid pace. ""When was this and where did you think you saw something?""</p> <p>"Go back about 5 minutes and zoom in on where my hand touches the sphere."" Jake replied.</p> <p>Seph tapped some more keys and brought up several camera angles of Jake putting his hand on the sphere. A couple clicks, drags and key punches later, the big 20*30 inch main screen had 4 different angles and a bunch of sensor data beside each one.</p> <p>"Alright now slow it down right when I'm taking my hand away."" A few seconds later both men stared at each other with wide eyes, because there on the sphere they both saw..... Start reading to find out :)</p> <p>Author's Corner: Hey everyone, this is my first book I'm writing and it's basically just a try to see how good I am. Personally I think the story idea itself is awesome, now it only remains to be seen if my writing skills do it justice :P . As such I'm looking for and happy for feedback, comments, etc. Especially if you find mistakes or have an idea for how the story could continue, I'd appreciate it. Cheers :D .</p> <p>On a side note I wasn't sure about the Mature tag rules on RR. There will be fighting, blood, etc. so maybe I should add it?</p> <p>.</p> <p>.</p> <p>.</p> <p>P.S. IMPORTANT: Because it's my first story, the first couple chapters may not be so interesting. I hope you decide to stick it out to chapters 17+18 cause that's where the real part of the story starts and I think it will be enough to have you decide to stick around :). If you are really having trouble reading the first bits, you can just skip to chapter 16 and see if it's more interesting there.</p>
