Episode 13: Countdown. (Live Action) Rave the Restorer

Months after her promotion, Rave led Smart Tech Systems’ IT and cybersecurity team alongside Maya and Sergio. When a new employee, Selena Rivera, joined, Rave noticed her unusual interest in the restricted R&D wing housing the company’s time displacement technology. Selena was quiet, efficient, and highly competent, but something about her behavior raised suspicions. One rainy Thursday, Selena suddenly disappeared, leaving behind her ID badge and an empty desk. Although HR claimed a family emergency, Rave suspected something sinister. She ordered an emergency systems audit, examining servers, access logs, and R&D equipment. After four days of searching, the team discovered a micro-fusion charge concealed behind a cooling conduit near the time displacement core. Cloaked by quantum dampeners, the device had evaded detection and possessed enough power to destroy the entire building. Suddenly, the bomb activated, displaying a holographic countdown. Panic spread as alarms blared and security initiated lockdown procedures. While technicians evacuated the facility, Rave remained behind. Conventional disarming methods were too dangerous, as any interference could destabilize the chamber and trigger catastrophic consequences. Realizing she could not overpower the device’s destructive entropy directly, Rave decided to use her restoration abilities to reverse its state, returning the chamber to the moment before the bomb was armed. With the countdown relentlessly ticking, she focused on the lives she had saved and the trust others placed in her. As reality warped and unstable energy pulsed through the chamber, Rave faced her greatest test yet. More than a battle against a dangerous machine, it was a defining moment of responsibility, courage, and sacrifice. With time running out, her extraordinary power stood as the facility’s only hope of preventing disaster and restoring stability. Story and characters created by: Francis O.
