《Aliens.exe》Chapter 47 - Revelling in Responsibility
Advertisement
“Officer! Are you there? Over,” blared the radio.
“Yes, Officer Bouncer reporting. Who is this? Ruff.”
“Eric Smythe, Head of FOG. Over.”
“What? The weather people?” replied Officer Bouncer. “I’m a little busy here.” Officer Bouncer was in the middle of one of the most fierce mini-battles of the war so far. Four Rearguard Beagles ships were surrounded by what must have been a hundred Crawkling ships to begin with. They were down to about fifty, but this was still a vast number to keep your eye on at one time. If Officer Bouncer was honest, it was probably harder than when there was a hundred. It was well known that Crawkling soldiers were out for themselves more that the team, and the first part of the war was always settling petty little vengeances. The “friendly-fire” seemed to have stopped, so the Rearguard Beagles would have to take down the majority of the rest of these ships themselves.
Fortunately, Officer Bouncer had attended many Flying Under Considerable Distraction lessons, so even though he was chatting to Eric Smythe, he wasn’t (F.U.C.D.)
“That’s what everyone thinks. We’re actually the secret police. I’ll keep this short though, I don’t want to ruin your battle. I understand that there are difficulties maintaining contact with Flight Cruiser Lexonus, so for the moment I have taken charge of strategy. Over.”
“That’s not a good idea, Sir. Without wishing to sound rude, you are not familiar with Basic Beagle Warfare. Over. Ruff.”
“I have plenty of experience thank you,” replied Eric Smythe. “And besides, I’m putting every tactic past Officer Howler first.”
“Worries vanquished,” replied Officer Bouncer. “Howler is one of the best.”
“Excellent. You may have noticed that your radar has become a little sparse.”
“I had. Ruff.”
“That’s because all Beagles are turning off their radars. There are still thousands of you. I need you to finish what you are doing, and retire to co-ordinate 23423484729. We are lining up an ambush.”
“An excellent plan,” replied Officer Bouncer. “I’ll let you know when I’m there. Ruff.”
It didn’t take Officer Bouncer long to lose his enemy, and retreat to the position he had been told. Rearguard Beagles loved a good ambush, this was proper warfare.

Obsession x Mana
The modern world had become exposed to a new element which became unanimously known as "Mana" after a freak meteorite incident, creating people with superpowers and monsters that threaten life on Earth. Perun, the "Progenitor" of the meta-humans retired as a war hero and created a Dark Guild, its members being the war orphans he had adopted throughout his career. His peaceful life of filling paperwork begins to collapse as the nightmare of his "Awakening" becomes increasingly unbearable, forcing his once-powerful abilities to turn dormant. Unbeknownst to Perun, the problem children he had adopted since young, have grown up into girls with cheat-level abilities due to the properties of his mana; they became meta-humans far beyond the level of humanity, powers that contest a twisted love monopoly for their father. Should anyone bare their fangs (or romantic interest) towards their beloved one, their sweet facades shall break with no hesitation. When their seemingly unaware Master is forced to return to the center stage again as a "Level 1" character like the rest of the world, his obsessive daughters shall move beneath the shadows to create his new legend. This is the story of yanderes & obsessions.

Recovery of a Life
The prince of a kingdom was erased from the world. His very existence an enigma. Follow Xopil as he forces his life into a world that refuses to acknowledge his presence. I tried to write a novel without including all the standard things you find in certain genres, or if it is included, I hope it's at least a fresh take on it, this includes me breaking the fourth wall, probably too much. I'm wondering if that helped with humor at all, and also reconsidering if that should be a part of the story. I'm going to be rewriting every chapter at this point... and that chapter I'm extremely disappointed with could likely be deleted if not redone entirely. Now that this story is marked 'completed', I'll be going through each chapter and fleshing out the story a bit, as I found it severely lacking, and I've been saying to myself "I could have done more with that." way more often than I should be. And that speaks to my own dissatisfaction with my writing. I make no warranty-express or implied-as to the quality of these chapters, or the story as a whole. Cover art by Roman Valeyev
