《Marvel elixir: Rise of mutant empire》chapter 14
Advertisement
While Joshua was deep into his research the world was in turmoil.
Frost P.O.V.
My name is Winston Frost. The owner of Frost inc. My company deals with pharmaceutical and perfumes. We are a top giant in this business. I have 4 children but only my 3rd daughter is somewhat capable. I am a ruthless and cold-hearted person and I am proud of it. I am here by being that person.
Now everything was going great. Then one day the news got out that Foley industries are entering the pharmaceutical market. It should not have bothered me but the news which came after that was bothering. Apparently, Joshua Foley was not any green kid but a genius of Tony Stark level. And it is very very troublesome because no one knows what kind of drug he will introduce in the market. It will put us in a very tiresome situation.
Also, they are not even selling the company shares like that Daily Planet newspaper. It is all his. If he has introduced it in the market I would have to buy its share without a hitch. But now it is very bothersome. Only the news was enough to make my company's shares value decrease by 3 percent.
I know I have to do something. So I bribed the government individuals to not give the Foley the medical license. Also, I support the Directors in his company to revolt.
I think he is just a boy who will give up. Oh, how wrong I was. He is not a boy, he is a monster. He killed Peter in front of all of them in broad daylight and also killed his family. The others were so scared that they sold their shares to him happily.
I tried launching an investigation on him and he was ahead of me. He bought the investigating officers and those who he was not able to buy, he killed them or threatened their families.

Then he destroyed the carrier of those who were not sectioning him his medical license. One of the Senator even suicide
due to him.
He published their dark secrets into the newspaper and all was done. The pressure from above was more than enough to break them.
I truly miscalculated. I thought of him as a normal boy but he is a wolf in sheepskin. Everyone at Club wanted him to join. Shaw is even considering him to directly give a strong position in the inner circle of the club.
But I was still underestimating him. He is a monster. He knows that I was the one pulling the strings behind all those events. I think he will let me go or I was discreet enough but he strikes back.
He published my son's sexuality. He is gay that's why I didn't name him as the new C.E.O.
He published it in the newspaper. He has my son's explicit photos with his partner. But he didn't stop there. He killed his partner and my son, that love-struck fool believes that I was the one who killed his partner. He goes in front of the media and tells them that I am his partner's killer.
This has a very devastating effect on companies P.R. Our share value decreased by 50 percent in one day. The share which has a market value of 30 dollars is now 15.
Plus I have an inquiry on me. I have to leave my M.D. post. I have become a laughing stock. But I am not defeated yet.
3rd person P.O.V.
Mr. Frost was in his penthouse making plans about how to kill Joshua Foley. At that moment a butler dressed in the uniform comes to his room with a food trolley.

" Sir, your food. Should I put it on the table " he asked.
Winston still lost in his thoughts "yes do so."
Winston was looking out of the window at that time. The butler has a smile on his face. And then the Butler picks the knife and without making a noise move toward Winston like a tiger moved toward his prey. He slowly closed the distance between them and then with one hand he put a hold on Winston's forehead and put the knife on his neck.
" Mr. Winston, sir Foley sends his regard." And with that, he slides the knife cutting Winston's throat.
Winston was wide-eyed. He didn't anticipate that the boy would strike so soon. He truly regrets now but to no avail. He poked his fingers at a monster and the monster retaliated in such a fierce manner that he didn't even think about it. He takes everything from him to his company, his reputation, everything.
And with those thoughts, Winston said Goodbye to the world.
The vampire coven P.O.V.
The family meeting of Galahad.
" ok, so what you are telling me is that we lost another one of our assets to that black Damphire." An elderly voice asked. He is Galahad.
" yes, Lord father. We lost Tyler Matthew our human supplier and newly turned vampire" a sweet sexy voice replied. This voice belonged to Velvet, Galahad's daughter. She is very beautiful and sadistic bitch.
" We have to do something about that Bloody half-blood and soon."
" put down every man on his tail and order the death at sight. Also, put him as a criminal in vegas police files. And put someone else on Tyler's post. Meeting dismissed"

The Arcane Fanatic
"A strange thing Drives us all..." An unknown voice echoes out through seemingly darkness. "The will to live." "But what is it to truly live? It is different for everyone but for me it is magic." "To feel the power at my fingertips and see mysteries unfold. To create and manipulate magic in a way that has never been done before. To be a pioneer of magic... that is what I live for. --- In the world known as Arcane, we follow a young gentleman that goes by the name of Max Blacklock. The strange thing about Maxwell is that the soul that is currently inhabiting his body isn't the original! A stranger with no recollection of his memory or thoughts takes place in a near-dead Max and takes to the world like a fish in water. Mysteries lay in the world of arcane in spades and Max will be the one to find them with his thirst for knowledge. But will Max find the mysteries that lay in his mind, body, and soul? This book is just for fun and to practice my writing skills. My previous book met me with frustration after sitting for hours in a day trying to get words to come out. It became something that just wasn't fun to me anymore. So here I'm going to try and just have fun writing a story I would have loved to read. If you want to read what I write then be my guest. I love to critique and hope that I can get better through writing this story but I don't know if I will be able to keep a stable upload schedule until I get into the flow of things again.

Starchild
“It’s life’s illusions I recall. I really don’t know life at all.” from the song, Both Sides Now, by Joni Mitchell Starchild is an adventure novel set within an understanding of reality that is rooted in Eastern spiritual traditions.It takes as its starting point experiments in remote viewing that were genuinely undertaken by the American military in the nineteen-nineties under the name of the Stargate Project. It then imagines how a more advanced attempt to weaponise the capabilities of consciousness might have been developed in the present day.The story then explores how Ultimate Reality might respond to such a threat.Deep, elemental forces thus bring together Samantha Martin and Sahadeva Varma, old colleagues from the Stargate Project, to avert the apocalyptic consequences of this military attempt to weaponise consciousness. This fast-paced story spans genres including romance, action, adventure, science fiction and more. Although this story is based on concepts drawn from established spiritual traditions, these have sometimes been extrapolated to the point of very extreme speculation for the needs of an adventure story.Much of the underlying philosophy, however, as explained in the dharma talks given by Samantha Martin, is paraphrased from the guidance of respected spiritual teachers. Scheduling: Starchild is a previously unpublished novel of one hundred thousand words which was serialised in weekly instalments over twenty-five weeks from 15th November 2021 to the 29th April 2022. Each instalment contains five chapters – an average of approximately four thousand words in each instalment. Acknowledgements: All the mandala images, with one exception, were drawn by Brian Huggett using the Spirality mandala drawing application.
