《Break Neck Alley》14. On the Precipice
Advertisement
“Welcome to my cousin’s humble abode.” Jade said dramatically as she opened the door.
Az entered the apartment to find that it was fairly tidy, although faint traces of alcohol hung in the air.
“I told him you were coming over which doesn’t really matter since he’s in Kukulkan with some friends.” Jade said as she closed the door.
She the led Az to the couch where she gestured that he sit.
She sat next to him before switching on the TV, but Az quickly noticed that she didn’t really care about the TV.
“So… you’re friends with Zoey, huh? She didn’t force you into it, did she?” Jade asked.
“No, not really. She did some questionable things at first, I think she’s alright.”
“Oh? So, have you two gotten close?” Jade asked.
“What do you mean?”
“I mean like, on a scale of one to ten, how well do you really know her.” Jade asked.
“Mmm… that’s hard to say. You can never truly know someone, so the answer’s not ten, but it definitely isn’t one. So I’d say three or four. Why do you ask?”
“I’m just curious. Say, have you met Lucas yet?” Jade asked.
“Yes.”
“Really? Umm… can you do me a favour next time you meet him?”
“What?”
“Can you ask that he remove me from his register?”
“Register?” Az asked.
“Ugh, Lucas is one those meticulous types. He keeps books on just about everything. Two years after I graduated from high school, I wanted to make some quick cash and so I asked him if he had any work for me and he did. He had me work as a waitress in one of his shops. I kept his boys entertained and he paid me-“
“Entertained?”
“Calm down, Romeo. It was just some dancing. Lucas made sure no one touched me. That other job was for the other girls. Anyway, unfortunately, Lucas does this thing where he makes you agree to work for a certain amount of years and since I was young and dumb, I agreed to four.”
“How many do you have left?” Az asked.
“Two. Ugh, I don’t want to work for him anymore. I plan on getting a real job after I graduated and maybe getting a place of my own, but I can’t do that until Lucas let’s me go.” Jade said with a sigh.
“OK, I’ll ask him, but him and I have barely ever spoken, so don’t expect much.” Az said.
“Ah-ha! That’s where Zoey comes in. If you can convince her to tell him to remove my name then I’ll be as free as a bird.” Jade said with a bright smile.
“What’s the penalty for not showing up?” Az asked and Jade's expression darkened considerably.
“A lot of things can happen. He could make you pay up with money or… just talk to him for me, ok?” Jade asked.

“OK-“
“And say I’m your girlfriend. That should help.”
“Oh, ok.” Az said with a sigh.
Jade then removed her hoodie, revealing her small perky breasts.
“All this talk about freedom’s got me all fired up.” She said before sitting on Az’s lap.
“You walked around shirtless?” Az asked as her wrapped his hands around her waist.
“Yeah… I didn’t see the need to wear one.” Jade said as she ran her thin fingers through Az’s hair.
“Hehe, understandable.” Az said before pulling Jade closer.
He then pressed the side of his head against her chest and listened for her heartbeat.
“What are you doing-?”
Az took Jade’s hand and pressed it against his chest.
“Oh my goodness.” Jade gasped as Az raised his head.
“I’m nervous as hell right now.” He said with an awkward smile.
“I can tell.” Jade said before leaning closer to Az.
She then pressed her lips against Az’s and the two kissed passionately for a moment.
Az pulled his head away from Jade before suckling her left nipple as he gently squeezed her ass.
Jade then removed Az’s jacket.
Her eyes widened upon seeing the countless scars that lined his skin.
Az saw the concern on Jade’s face and so he kissed her again before sliding his hands into her pants.
“No panties?” Az asked.
“Are you gonna scold me?” Jade asked as he gently pushed her onto the couch.
“Maybe.” Az said before removing his shirt.
He then kicked off his pants while jade took of hers.
Az grabbed her and pulled her closer.
He then pressed body against hers before kissing her again.
Jade gently held Az’s head as their tongues touched. She made sure to savour every bit of Az that she could while Az made sure not to loose focus.
He ripped himself from Jade’s grip before lightly kissing her neck. Her then kissed her nipple, then her belly, then her thigh.
Az then kissed her clit before linking it rhythmically as Jade’s moans filled the room.
Jade crossed her legs, locking Az’s head as he ate her out.
“That’s enough! Fuck me already!” Jade eventually said as she uncrossed her legs.
Az nodded before readjusting himself.
He then slid down his boxers, revealing his fully erect cock.
Jade gasped in anticipation as Az rubbed the tip on her clit.
“Az-” She tried saying but Az shoved his cock into her pussy, silencing her in the process.
Jade gasped loudly, but before she could even catch her breath, Az pressed his lips against hers as he rhythmically moving his hips back and fourth.
Jade pushed Az’s head to the side allowing herself to breath he continuously fucked her.
“Az! Az! AZ!” Jade screamed which Az shoved his cock ever deeper into her pussy.
Az then let out several loud grunts as his movements grew more frantic.
“Fuck! I forgot to bring a condom.” Az said without stopping.

“I don’t care. Just fuck me!” Jade cried before kissing Az who tightly squeezed her before cumming inside her.
Az pulled his head away from Jade’s and desperately gasped in an attempt to catch his breath.
Jade let out soft whimpers as Az collapsed onto her.
“That was…” Jade gasped.
“Yeah…”
“Wanna go again?”
“Yeah.”
.
..
“Az.”
“Az, wake up!” Jade yelled, prompting Az to open his eyes.
“Mmm?”
“Aren’t you supposed to be home by now? Tomorrow’s school, right?” Jade asked as Az rested his head on her chest.
“Ah shit- crap. You’re right.” He said as he sat up.
He checked his phone and saw that it was a few minutes past eleven. He looked out the window and saw that the sky had grown completely dark.
Az then looked at Jade.
He then looked at her nipple before sucking it, but Jade gave him a chop on the head in response.
“No you don’t. Those are sore as fuck now. Also, don’t get distracted. Get up.” Jade said.
“Fine.” Az sighed as he stood up.
He then clumsily got dressed along with Judy and the two left the apartment before making their way towards the train station.
“Dammit! I’m so hungry.” Jade cried.
“Me too. Next time we should order extra, extra large pizza’s.”
“Yeah.” Jade said as they walked down the eerily empty streets.
Az offered Jade his hand and she accepted it immediately.
“Fuck, all this walking sucks. Why must the station be halfway across the district?” Jade complained, but just as Az opened his mouth to speak, Jade stopped.
“Hey, Az. Listen… about the whole Lucas thing. I take it back. Don’t talk to him.” She said.
“Mmm? Why not?”
“I only said those things in the heat of the moment, but right now I’m asking that you stay as far away as possible from him, ok?”
“I-“
“I know it’s complicated because of your whole thing with Zoey, but please. Don’t involve yourself with Lucas.” Jade said.
Az sighed before lifting her hand and pulling her closer.
“How about this: I ask him to remove your name from his register, then I steer clear-“
“No, Az. I mean it-“
Az kissed Jade lightly, silencing her.
“Trust me. The worst he can say is no, right?”
Jade’s eyes widened.
She then lowered her head.
“Are you always this stubborn?” She asked.
“It comes and goes.” Az said with a smile.
“Ok, but if things go south I want you to run straight to me, ok?”
“Ok.” Az said.
Jade then accompanied his the station where they parted ways. He then boarded a train and made his way back home.
He eventually arrived home and after knocking the door lightly, he entered.
Rose lifted her head from the couch and greeted Az with a wave.
“Hey.” Az said before sneaking into his room where, after kicking off his shoes, he went to sleep.
.
..
Az awoke rather early.
He completed his morning routine before heading downstairs to find Rose sitting by the kitchen table with a laptop in front of her.
Az grabbed a nutrient bar before sitting next to her.
“Looking for a job?” He asked.
“That and a place to stay. Lots of cheap places in Acan, but I don’t want to move too far away.” Rose said.
Az nodded before finishing his bar.
He then gave her a pat on the back before leaving. He looked around and saw that his father’s car was gone, but he paid the thought no mind as he made his way to the station.
He then got onto a train which sped to station G03 where Az hopped off.
He then made his way to school where Holly and Zoey awaited.
Zoey saw Az approach and so she ran up to him before eyeing him over as Holly approached.
“What are you doing?” Az asked as Zoey sighed.
“Somethings not right. You seem… different.” Zoey droned.
“How so?”
“I don’t know. My gut’s tellin’ me things and I gotta listen.” Zoey said with narrowed eyes.
Az rolled his eyes before turned to Holly.
“Good morning.” He greeted.
“Hey.”
“Are you and Zoey friends again?” Az asked.
“No. Not exactly. We just figured that the best way for all of us to be happy is for me to start being honest with the two of you and myself. As for Zoey, she needs to stop using her brother to get her way.” Holly said.
“She does that a lot.”
“Hey!” Zoey cried, just as the bell rang.
“Come on. Let’s get inside. I’m glad you two worked things out.”
“We didn’t really. We just realized that it would be selfish for one of us to monopolize you, so we’ve decided to share.” Holly said.
“You speak as though I’m a rare commodity.” Az said as they walked down the main hallway.
“You are. There’s only one Azizi here and we don’t want to lose you.” Holly said before stopping.
“I don’t want to lose either of you as well… now get to class.” Az said with a smile.
Holly nodded before walking towards her classroom.
Zoey, on the other hand, didn’t move.
“Somethin’ on your mind?” Az asked.
“Yeah, I- I’m kinda happy. This is kinda what I had planned from the start only we’re all different people now.” Zoey said, but Az her his pinkie in response offered.
“All that matters is that we’re together, right?” Az asked as Zoey linked her pinkie with his I the empty hallway.
“Right.”

Ars Magica
Our vision comes back into focus. Our eyes, while being able to perceive the immediate surroundings, still leave us with our minds uncomprehending towards what is actually occurring. Sure, there are definitive things that we can focus on, like the fact that we're either out upon the open sea or the open ocean, there not being much of a difference with no land in sight, as well as the fact that we appear to be upon a haphazardly constructed metal boat, whose seams are barely able to keep a hold of themselves in the crashing waves. However, that does not let us understand what exactly is causing the waves in the first place. If we were to rewind time, we'd find ourselves upon a calm sea under a peaceful sky with the only difference, being a small whirlpool that would be the precursor towards this uproar around the boat. Lightning flashes in the sky, with no clouds being near, and anyone actually manning the boat has either died towards the cause of the smashing tides in the first place, or are fighting amongst the flashes of lightning, all while trying not to become devoured, demolished, and utterly decimated by the beast roiling in the whirling waves. To better understand exactly what is happening here, there is one singular event that needs to be understood, that needs to be explained, and that is the arrival of a creature named Dave. Stepping back from current events and going towards this creature's first appearance in the world, we begin to hear the sound of water slowly dripping across rocky ground. The cavern is utterly silent except for this one constant, its cause feeding channels downwards, sloping towards cracks in the rubble along the floor from broken stalagmites and stalactites. And there, lying on top of something which had fallen over recently, judging from its cracks, is a person, the creature named Dave. His form is fast asleep, either from the impact or from an intoxication, judging from the smell upon its breath. A bright light suffuses into it for a second, giving life towards the pale skin, before it slowly dies down back to the comfortable black of the cave that it's within. Before this moment in time, Dave did not exist in the physical world. At least, not in the reality that he finds himself born into. We do not know whether or not his existence is simply a cosmic joke, or something that is being played out on purpose. All that we do know, is that one moment, the body was not in the cave, and simply formed in the next. The actual earliest time that we know Dave exists, is the interpolation of the memories of J-209, which we'll begin looking into shortly to gain context towards the coming narrative that is being written and hastily trying to keep itself written. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Warning: This story has several things which might turn its readers away. The first is that this story has shifting points of perspective. Don't worry about that previous sentence too much though, as the main character will always have a first person perspective associated with them. However, any other character from which we're viewing the story from will either be in third-person, as we are not necessarily in their shoes at the moment, or in first person, given that the narrator is an actual physical presence within the story. For the most part, chapters will be self-contained with their perspectives, so there will not be an abundance of switching perspectives within the same chapter. The most that an average reader would have to worry about is the fact that perspectives can switch between chapters. The second thing is that the main character is a bit on the 'special' side of things. He's not exactly mentally there most of the time, so there will be some times that his personality or his thoughts do not actively align with his actions. The third, and final thing of importance, is the fact that past the first couple of chapters, nothing has been planned in advance. There are arcs and plots that I want to do, want to implement, or have already been set into motion from our main character's introduction to the world, but the method that I use for my story writing and generating leads towards a bit more random chance being enabled. Basically...there's a lot of dice rolling behind the scenes. To not complicate the story further than its regular LitRPG elements, the rolls will not be publicly available. However, there will be knowledge within the author's notes on whether or not there were positive or negative critical rolls that had occurred within the chapter. You have been warned. Updates: Mondays & Fridays (Schedule permitting) Typical Chapter Length: (2,000-3,000)
