《Empire of Death Saga: How A Sword changed my Life》Chapter 9: Taeko vs Gen part 2
Advertisement
Taeko's sword was heading towards the giant's hand. A perfect cut. Without noticing Gen was in Taeko was in his face. He had a never seen before speed.
Their fists almost collided. Their fight was interrupted by someone. The fire started emerging out of the ground. "Is this one of your powers, idiot?" said Taeko with an ironic tone. "Unfortunately, not. It is my sister. Well, before I can get rid of you, we must stop her." "Is that so?" "I'm afraid she could kill millions if not stopped."
Taeko looked to his left. He saw Ami. She was smiling, she looked angry. She had a blue fire around her. "She looks like the devil himself." "I'll go left, you go right, understood?" "Like it would be that hard.". Gen looked at him seriously. He barely could've seen his face throughout the flames of the fire. He still understood that the situation was, unfortunately, a serious one.
Gen's hand got a blue-ish look. Turned out he could've used those flames to all this time. Taeko charged with a punch towards her head. She screamed once.
She explored the area around her, sending Taeko and Gen flying. She was heading towards Taeko. She smiled while slowly getting close to her.
A thunder-like light appeared. For the next seconds, everyone was blind. Taeko heard a loud bang from his right side. "Crap, what if this is Kaori. We're all dead then." he started thinking fast, trying to find answers. He finally could see. It was Katashi looking pale and angry. "You've got some guts to cause all of this disaster.".Taeko rested his head, relaxed because of finding out who the mystery person was.
Chapter 9.2: Plans for a Raid
Gen, Ami, and Taeko were in a hospital. "Where the hell am I? I woke up from the bed. It probably was all just a dream. Right, a dream." "How dare you cause this much trouble?" Katashi said it disappointed. "Look, it was not my fault. Where am I, anyway?" "I heard the full story. You're in the school hospital."

He was in a room with only a bed and a desk. Pretty blank for a hospital. "At this point, waking up in random beds is something basic." "I am disappointed in you. But, proud that you learned to use your powers." "Thanks..." "Rest for now. Tomorrow we shall go fight Kaori." "What did you just say?" He screamed at Katashi.
Gen's room was no different. A plant, a bed, and some tables to fill out the blank spaces. "Did it all happen in real life? It would be great if Fujita didn't find out. He is such an asshole about things like this one." In the corner of the room was mister Fujita sitting in a chair reading a book. Fujita is one of the first fire benders and Gen's sensei. "Ahem." Fujita tried to get his attention. Seeing Fujita gave Gen chills, it was like his worst nightmare happen. "Please don't make me clean toilets for free at some restaurant again as a punishment." Bowed Gen to Fujita. "Not even close. As payback for you stupid acts. You shall help us defeat Kaori. "Seems easy." Everyone went quiet until Gen realized. "Kaori??" Gen exploded.
Katashi walked in Ami's room to find out her sleeping. Fujita was there near her watching. "You did talk with Gen, didn't you?" "I suppose I did.". "I hope we can end his army once and for all. Anyway, Fujita. I have a request. I want you to make contact with the people from the Island of Peace."
Chapter 9.4: A new Visitor
Taeko kept staring at the ceiling. He was thinking of different scenarios. "Either way, if I don't try. I would die as a loser." He told himself.

He heard a knock on the door. "Who could it be? Probably Gen. He must want to bow on his knees for forgiveness." He started laughing. "Get in!" He screamed at the person knocking. A girl's figure appeared. It was none other than Yumi.
He jumped to hug her but fell on his right arm. He screamed because of his pain. Yumi helped him get up. "I am so happy to see you." Said Taeko. "We need to talk." "Sure, I have nothing to do anyway." Yumi was not looking him in the eyes and seemed shy. "I am moving. I am going to study at a different school."
Taeko's expression became blank. "Don't forget, we'll always be together. We love each other." Yumi's facial expression rapidly changed. She burst into laughter. "Come on. Why would I ever like you? Anyway, we'll meet again." She wore an evil-looking grin while saying her last words. She left the room.
Tako became angry and sad. "Stop!" he screamed after her. Katashi rushed into the room and found Taeko reaching his hand. "What is it? Everything ok?" "Didn't you see her? Yumi was here."
"She moved yesterday far away. I am sorry, I forgot to tell her." "Are you sure you never saw her today around here?" "Not at all, we even have a sensor for the entrance and windows so my idea would be for you to rest. Your tiredness makes you have hallucinations." Taeko agreed. But, he knew something was surely up.
Meanwhile, Fujita arrived at the floating island of peace. He knocked on the gates. "Hi, Fujita." He turned around to see a familiar figure.

How the Stars Turned Red
Announcement as of 05 July 2022: I've been diagnosed with some pretty severe nerve damage in my left arm, rendering me unable to write effectively, and as such this story is on hold until it is healed. I am so sorry, and I promise to get back to writing as soon as possible. In the latter half of the 3rd millennium CE, humanity has spread across the stars, inhabiting close to five-hundred worlds across the Orion Arm. Earth has become irrelevant, a historical has-been. The galactic map is dominated by two mega-factions, both controlling vast amounts of territories either through direct control or through their many allies and treaty signatories. The Kingdom of Aurora is the political and economic hegemon despite consisting of only seven inhabited worlds; their strength lies in the Royal Union, an interstellar commonwealth composing an internal market and a common defence pact. These member worlds are myriad and varied, culturally as well as politically, but they all flock to the same banner. The Independent Systems Alliance, spearheaded by the Republic of Elysium, is the ascendant challenger to Aurora and the Union. A pseudo-federal multi-system polity, the Alliance economy and military is rapidly expanding, but at the cost of effective democratic and meritocratic involvement by its people. However, with two superpowers as this, chafing along a common border, and with a constant clamour of polemics, both sides have become convinced the other is constantly preparing for war and are on the look-out for any perceived weakness in their opponent. The predictable result is a huge arms race and a cold war spreading across the stars, requiring only a spark to set the galaxy aflame. Drawn into this game of high stakes are ordinary men and women, their peaceful lives, hopes, and aspirations swallowed by the vortex of conflict and distrust. This is their story. Cover art by Rhodex Designs (FB). Hope you like long chapters and adjectives. Note: English is not my first language. Another story set in the same universe, written by a good friend

Two Existentialists | S.R.
"How many existentialists does it take to screw a lightbulb?" Spencer asked with a small laugh. Once again the room was silent. You faintly heard Agent Rossi mutter, "Don't.""2. One to change the light bulb and one to observe how it symbolizes an incandescent beacon of subjectivity in a netherworld of cosmic nothingness," he said. The room was silent still, until you laughed. His eyes looked up at yours in confusion. "Wouldn't they sit in the dark and hope that the bulb decided to light again? An existentialist would never change the bulb. He would allow the darkness to exist," you questioned.-#1 #spencerreid#1 #mgg#1 emilyprentiss
