“What the fuck do you mean, he's been captured?” Rumi blurted, a frown twisting at her lips as she regarded Taylor coldly. Another psychopath in Law’s merry band of them. The girl was young, around the age she would have started going to UA, and back home she already would have been a dange...

“So, you've been stuck here for around two hundred years trying to create the ultimate panacea… and you succeeded?” I questioned with a slight tilt of my head as I looked through the window of a lab. On the other side, there was a robot. A Mr. Handy, as the series was called. A ball shaped ...

Without boats filled with treasure, the sail back to Norland was relatively quick even with the much slower Abbasid ships. After a quick day of sailing, we arrived at the docks to cheering applause that didn't diminish even when they learned that we came back empty handed. That, I suspected, was ...

The battle was a fierce one, but Acre still fell to us in little time. And not wholly because we managed to overcome the defenders. I felt it in my bones that Hadi, the commander that had proven to be a thorn in my side since this war began, was behind it. They contested our landing, drew what bl...

I was pretty satisfied with how things had turned out, I thought, looking down at the sea of Abbasid soldiers that we had managed to pen in. It had been a challenge, but for weeks, I had been slowly setting the stage for this. It hadn't been easy and the cost was honestly higher than I would have...

Things were not going particularly well, Hadi acknowledged as he stared at the report written on a scrap of parchment. He felt an exhaustion deep in his bones, as in the three weeks since their landing, he had yet to sleep well. The most he had gotten was when he was unconscious and he was half t...

“Oh, fuuuucckkkk…!” Johnny groaned, eyelids butterflying as his eyes felt like they were rolling from the back of his skull. He opened them, just to catch a glimpse of blinding light that stabbed daggers into his brain. It might have been a good fifty years since he had had a hangover, but ...

The tender moment was abruptly cut short with the announcement that the base had three minutes left until it self-destructed. Taking out my GBM, I pointed in the direction of the docking bay, and fired a single shot that carved a long line towards it. It was a dangerous method, but given that we ...

“L… take them out,” Kaiden said as soon as I delivered the news that I had a bead on Arasaka's location. “We have everything locked down on Earth. Smasher was only a problem because we didn't know about him- about them. David's in for repairs and we'll start picking them off when he's don...

“All things considered, that went as well as it could have,” I remarked, up and out of the hospital bed that I was carted to. I looked in a mirror to see a fresh set of stitches held together my eyebrow from where Vicious tore them with those hamfists he called hands. Despite getting hit with...

I felt calm as we descended into the belly of the beast. There was fear there, pooling in my gut, but it was firmly in check. I controlled it rather than the fear controlling me. If I had to describe what I felt in a single word, then the word righteous came to mind. And if I was being honest, I ...

“Left, left, left, right, left,” I chanted, running next to Mankey and I had to admit, I was doing a lot better than I thought I would be after a solid three hours of running. Pokemon humanity seemed to start at a base level of Olympic athletes and only got better from there. My t-shirt was s...

“Lickitung,” Larry said, bringing out his fist pokemon. I had a plan to deal with him, but given how he had crushed Brawly, I had to assume that he planned around my planning. Which meant I needed to plan around his planning… or, I could flip the board on him.

Taylor caught a glimpse of red hair as they stepped into the dilapidated Hallucigen building. Her insects detected something in the air, but their senses couldn't detect exactly what it was, but to be safe, they entered the building with gas masks on. The building wasn't any more dangerous or run...

“If I'm dead, then Jahannam has a poor sense of humor,” Hadi croaked, laying on a bed in a tent, with Alim seated next to him with a book that probably weighed as much as he did across his lap. Alim looked up at him, blinking owlishly at the sudden address, before he offered a small smile. ...
