《A Short story collection》The detective

The man walked along the rainy and muddled streets paying no attention to the rain that bounced off his trenchcoat and hat nodding to the peacekeepers as he went. His pistol was in a hidden side holster and his rifle cleverly hidden using a type of molding technology it was expensive sure notoriously So, but it was worth it for the Private investigator. His phone rang and he ducked into an alleyway before answering it "Hello?" I Asked smoothly "meet at 5th street Newark doesn't Be Late" I ducked out of the alleyway and headed to the garage with a sigh my eyes darting the rooftops looking for snipers I reached the garage before heading to my bike and pressing the button to start it up and it roared to life as I zoomed toward the avenue as my hand brushed my hidden sidearm I pulled over putting my Bluetooth earpiece and continuing on my way before pulling over my bike once again and walking the rest of the way there. My phone rang and I pressed the earpiece "good, good you're here take a left there should be a man in a black su" his voice was cut off very suddenly then three things happened at once I rolled to the floor as guns began to open up from everywhere and the man returned "I was not expecting this either" "no shit" i growled pushing myself up as i pulled myself behind a tree. I tapped a button on my trenchcoat and my gun seeped forming itself in my hands.I cocked it and started firing it shattering the windows as people finally began to run and a black limo began to make its way towards me "that one of your guys?"I asked the man on the other end. "No why?" the Limo rolled passed me. The guns started opening up again. I hadn't noticed they stopped. "Right two on the balcony 3 on the 3rd floor and all look like they have heavy armament" I muttered before running from tree to tree. I ducked behind a concrete barrier. my rifle was in range and I let loose firing at the men on the balcony and they dropped like rocks. I grinned and fired at the third-floor windows watching as all three of the men took hits and I cursed "Shit time to switch AP" I put a round in each of them causing them to stagger before I fired off a burst at the men getting one down before I heard sirens and military humvee pulled in front of me as the bullets peppered the glass "Get in" I hopped in pressing a button on my rifle and it molded back into my trench coat."Who the hell are you" I knew that voice it was the man who I was working with "that doesn't matter right now" We pulled Up to the garrison and I got out "ID" the soldier groused I handed it to him "seems in order you and your friend are clear to go" I nodded and hopped back in the Humvee as we drove In and we both got out again. I nodded at the man as we went to the control tower. "Hello again shadow" sitting across from me was a man with back turned to me he swung his body around to reveal a scarred face and the red eyes of a man I thought dead.

The Grey Realm, an Erebus Story.
Written by: Staugroan and The Inklets. Edited by: Claudia Adams. In the beginning there was a god, who watched over and made one world his own. Soon after the god grew restless, but happened to stumble on a small world filled with life. This world was named Erebus by its peoples; humanity. The god was so fascinated with this new world that he started to copy it back home, creating oceans, forests, deserts, and so forth. Then the god created life and eventually his favored creations who would be immortals and be the better of mankind in every way-the elves. So often the god had traveled to Erebus that the two worlds became linked by magic and their inhabitants could cross at will. Relations between the races flourished, and a great empire was born in the Grey Realm, home of the elves. But the god once again grew restless, and set loose great beasts that stood at the top of any food chain, the apex. At first the elves met the challenge and fought them head on. But mankind was not so lucky, they died in droves to push back even a single apex. Something had to be done. Elves and man worked together to begin sealing off the worlds to protect mankind, to limit the ways in and out to better fight the apex off and keep their fellows safe. The ritual had adverse effects the likes of which neither the elves nor man could predict; the sealing of the worlds started slow, but the magic had never been done before, and in their ignorance it spread to completely cut the two worlds off from one another. It ejected the apex, and other magical being back into the Grey Realm, saving Erebus. At first the elves were content, they would find a way back once the apex were dead and gone. But the seal had done more than keep Erebus locked away. The powersource of the seal was magic itself, from both worlds, and it consumed it all greedily. The elves, weakened without their magic, crumbled into ruin, and the apex were free to hunt the other races of the Grey Realm. Two-thousand years later a strange phenomena is occurring and magic is slowly returning to the Grey Realm, and tears open that allow passage to Erebus. Thu'lain and a few elves must make the journey to fallen kingdom of the elves Anosora, in the hopes of reclaiming what was once theirs. They must face their nemesis the apex, and survive not only the species that have turned against them, but a terrible being left behind by the god to kill even the apex. Uch'l'thein, the faceless terror.
