《The Parasite》Chapter 4
Advertisement
Rose cleaned the shelves of the library after her last few guests left. What had happened between those two girls earlier? She wondered. All Rose could do was guess as she dusted off the books. She glanced at the clock in the center of the room, 10:22 PM. Only 2 more hours before her shift ended.
She moved to the other side of the shelf, before proceeding to dust the shelf off. She had felt a weird presence in the days she'd been there. All she could guess was that the library was taking its toll on her health. She knew she needed to quit soon. She was getting too old for this.
Rose slowly walked to a empty area, before staring at a bright light. It was the computer Henry and that girl had been sitting at. They must've forgot to turn it off. Rose stared at the computer, and saw the tab it was on. It was of a news article. Along with the photo of a wolf.
Rose got startled just by staring at it, the picture showed what the wolf looked like. It had a ripped ear, blood splattering out of it. One eye appeared to just be TV static, while the other eye was covered with the goo. Blood mixed with dark blue goo drenched it's body. It had a dark twisted smile, gum and goo dripping out of it's mouth. Finally, fur was scattered throughout its body, as if it had merely been taped on. The rest were just patches of bare skin.
Then she heard the chuckle...
Rose turned, startled. "W-Who's there?! I'll call the police!" Rose yelled. Rose grabbed a flashlight and walked toward the direction the voice came from. It lead her to a book. However, Rose noticed there was goo on it...

Rose backed up, startled. She walked off, now alert. Then Rose turned, and saw the computer. It had been turned back on. Rose walked up to it, now confused. The same picture was visible, except... wasn't the Wolf sitting before? Rose knew it had been. Now, it was propped in a standing position, staring at the camera.
Once again, all Rose could do was shut off the computer. Outside, a large storm started to brew. Several thunder cracks erupted throughout the sky. Rose sighed. Fall stunk.
Rose suddenly smelled something... foul. Rose turned toward the smell and saw it was near the doorway of the building. She gagged at the smell, not wanting to step any closer to that door. However, she found herself creeping closer with every inch. Finally, she reached the door, and pulled it open...
Immediately, she was jumped by something furry. She felt something hit her face as it slid down. Rose opened her eyes... and screamed. The Wolf from the picture was standing right above her. It was twitching, as if it had been waiting for this moment. As if it had been watching her before. It opened its mouth to speak, and a loud static sound emitted from it. It hurt her ears.
Rose booked it, running as fast as her legs could carry her. The Wolf followed in quick pursuit. It's smile... It acted as if this was just a game of tag. Rose didn't wanna know what would happen if it caught her. What was that thing? Who was that thing? All those questions swarmed her head.
Running toward the center of the library, Rose saw several books fly out as the bookshelves. A shelf slammed down with such a force that it rattled some of the computers, one falling off the table and causing the screen to shatter.

Rose looked behind her, the animal was gone. Running into a unknown door, she suddenly tripped to her knees, scared out of her mind. She fell hard on her back, she felt like she had broken it. That's when she noticed the lights had gone dim. Rose turned and realized she had tripped over the big, bulky generator. That's when she realized she was in the Electrical Room.
The lights must've been shut off when she tripped. She looked at the watch on her hand, 11:11 PM. Suddenly, she heard something. It sounded... happy. It was a music box. Rose turned toward the source, and nearly screamed. What greeted her was emerald eyes flashing in the dark, along with a gaped open mouth, also flashing, the blue goo coming out as if it were water.
It walked closer, grabbed her head... and smiled as it started to pierce.

Sand (Hiatus-2/01/18)
‘If you can survive the trials of treading a million nails, would you still go? If you are willing to encounter death at every step, dreading the next, are you still willing to enter? If you leave and experience the trials further still, would you do so? If you find yourself being pursued by everyone and everything, chasing you down to the edge of the cliff, would you jump to certain death or fight back and be labeled as a monster? You can choose whether or not you want to change your life right at this doorstep. If you do say no, then nothing will happen to you. If you say yes, then your life will change. Succeeding will bring you great power. And if you fail, then you will be enslaved within Oblivion for eternity. What is your answer?’ Tus heard the ancient voice that sounded like sandpaper as he stared at the altar with the land and sky frozen in motion. The words repeated themselves over and over again, forcing him to answer without the chance of taking it back. Armed with a borrowed sword and cheap armor that looked like wood, he said aloud without hesitation, “Yes!” The altar hummed, a green light flickered in the surroundings, and Tus ceased to exist.

Anchor Points: Age of Heroes
If you had a chance to reset history, knowing what we know now, would you take it? Six years after kicking an alien expeditionary force off the surface of the Earth back to their staging bases in the asteroid belt, and aided by stolen alien technology, the United Terran Republic Navy has finally achieved enough warship production to put the enemy on the run. Despite the facade of unity projected by the Earth's new federal government, deep cracks still lie under the surface that threaten the stability of world peace and the ability to protect humanity with a unified military response. Within this backdrop, the North American Union, now a mere state in the greater union, has created or reopened multiple off-books projects and black sites to house secrets both old and new that would be far too toxic or dangerous to be known to the wider world at such a delicate stage in world history. One of these secrets will draw Captain Henry O'Toole from his comfortable posting with the Jupiter Fleet straight into a world of conspiracies and secrets that could destroy the new, still fragile world order. Captain O'Toole will take command of mankind's first true starship with a secret mission that would be seen as treason by the new federal government. His orders are to use a prototype faster than light drive to travel through dimensions higher than spacetime and ride the expansion of the universe to create an off-books colony solely for the NAU. There are consequences for escaping time's jealous grasp, which instead position them to have a chance to change the course of human history. Fate has called the Indomitable Will and her crew into the Age of Heroes, will they be able to rise to the challenge?
