Chapter 1: Foreigner in Panama City
The enigmatic time traveler, Dr. Vetril Kuros, found himself disoriented and bewildered in an abandoned concrete mammoth of a building. His clothes burned like he had been rolled around in a charcoal BBQ pit. His face, arms, and legs burned like he had been laying face up under the sun for three days without protection, small scratches everywhere. In the bunker he was in, the dilapidated structure, once an armory during the American presence in the early 1900s, echoed with the ghosts of a bygone era. The air was heavy with an oppressive stillness, as if time itself held its breath. It was the type of World War 2 bunker you would store large scale ammo for tanks and planes. When Dr. Kuros awoke in agonizing pain and bewildered, he found himself in a metal goblet-shaped coffin with a hatch on top, large enough to fit only two adult people embracing, so needless to say, it was confined to any sized adult. He started screaming in the darkness and started reaching out with his hands until he grabbed a metal lever and pulled as hard as he could until in made the metal hatch pivot open, damp humid air got in which gave him fresh oxygen and inhaled air like a newborn again.
As Dr. Kuros emerged from the depths of his disorientation at the same time he was moving and trying to escape the dark concrete structure. He found a heavy metal door which had a manual lock which could be opened from inside and he did so. It was open but stuck, he had to kick it several times before it pried open. He walked out still dazed and confused. His mind felt like fragments of shattered glass, memories flashing in disjointed snippets. He vaguely recalled searching for his friend at his military office, Dr. Stevenson, a fellow scientist deeply entrenched in government black ops. He had clearance because he had been a consultant for various military projects before and he was known in those circles. He had worked with some marine mammals who had dual capacity to breathe both underwater and normally inhaling air. He had discovered some had a mutating gene which allowed the lungs to fill with liquid water and extract its oxygen to actually breathe. He was even friends from high school with some of the military personnel with clearance who worked there for many years. He even gave a briefing to the White House military top chief of staff on his findings, he wanted more grants to continue his research. He scaled back his findings once he knew that the end game was to weaponize his newly found biological applications. So, his grants were suspended temporarily but he still had influence and kept his intermediate clearance status. He knew some upper brass there also, so it was not a big deal for him to walk around that facility freely. Yet, his purpose seemed blurred, lost amidst the chaos of his sudden journey through time.
Dr. Kuros stumbled through the bustling streets of Panama City, Panama, his mind still reeling from the bewildering journey he had just undertaken. Disoriented and disheveled, he had unknowingly become a time traveler, thrust into a future where the world lay in ruins. As he meandered through the city's vibrant chaos, his senses were bombarded with a whirlwind of sights, sounds, and scents.
Panama City stood as a testament to the confluence of old-world charm and modern progress. Tall skyscrapers reached towards the heavens, their mirrored windows reflecting the rays of the sun, creating a mesmerizing dance of light and shadow. The city's vibrant colors adorned every corner, from the colonial architecture of Casco Viejo to the sleek lines of the contemporary buildings that lined the waterfront.
As Dr. Kuros wandered through the narrow streets, the rhythm of the city enveloped him. The cacophony of car horns, street vendors' cries, and the laughter of passersby merged into a symphony of urban life. The intoxicating aroma of freshly brewed coffee wafted through the air, mingling with the scent of exotic spices and tropical blooms.
Lost in his thoughts and trying to make sense of his inexplicable journey, Dr. Kuros found himself drawn to the sprawling expanse of Punta Pacifica, an affluent neighborhood nestled alongside the azure waters of the Pacific Ocean. It was here, amidst the towering structures of concrete and glass, that he discovered the Multiplaza Mall.
The mall rose before him like a modern-day temple, its grand entrance beckoning him inside. Its sleek architecture and pristine façade created an air of anticipation and curiosity. Dr. Kuros hesitated for a moment, feeling the weight of his past and future colliding within him. With a deep breath, he stepped through the mall's glass doors, ready to uncover the mysteries that lay within.
Inside, the atmosphere shifted from the bustling energy of the city streets to a sanctuary of retail and leisure. The scent of new merchandise mingled with the crisp, cool air-conditioning, creating a refreshing oasis from the tropical heat. Stores adorned with glimmering displays lured shoppers into a realm of indulgence and possibility.
Dr. Kuros navigated through the labyrinthine corridors, his eyes taking in the array of shops, each offering its own allure and temptation. He became enveloped in the seamless blend of cultures and styles, as international brands stood shoulder to shoulder with local artisans, showcasing their artistry.
As he meandered through the mall's vast expanse,
