《The Fisher King》X-I. Hello There
Advertisement
The morning is bright, the birds chirp, the rivers rattle, the sun shines like a ray of blindness. A stray ray of radition peak through the windows and into Mallary's eyes. "Five... more minutes," he mumbles, pulling his hands over his eyes. "Hmm... Soft... these aren't... What the hell...?" He squeezes the arm he's holding, "Sigh... Is this going to be another Taheteh?" Mallary opens his eyes to see the Silver-Haired girl right up in his face, sleeping. "Not the worst thing I woke up to."
Mallary flings her back towards her, but she moves it back. He flings it back again, but this time her arm grabs his and twists it one-eighty. She then grabs his chest and curls her head up next to it. "Fuck, that hurt." He shakes his hand, cletching his fingers together a few times. "At least she didn't break anything." He sighed. Mallary placed his hand down over the Silver-Haired girl and pats her back with his arm stiff. "Holy shit. What do I do! If I move she'll wake up. If is stay here, she'll wake up." He thought to himself. "Well, I'll just have to pull something out of my ass."
As Mallary finished his last thought, he felt the girl stiring. She squeezed herself tightly against him and relaxed, her face now pointed towards Mallary. She lazily opens her eyes and yawned, "Hey Kiva, when did you get her?" The girl closed her eyes, reaching her arms to her face and rubbing them. As she looks back at Mallary again, now awake. "Am I dreaming?" She rubs her eyes again and looks back a Mallary. "Ok, I'm not dream... Why I-" She was about to yell at him, but he cut her off.

"Hello there," Mallary smiled, showing a little teeth. "Seems like I've got the high ground now. Since you've decided to sleep with me. Would you kindly give me your name?"
The girl scowled at him before pushing Mallary back. "Hmph!" She kicked him with her legs, thrusting herself off the bed and into the floor. As she glides to the floor, she turns vertical with her head dashing toward the ground. She tucks her head in and rolls over a few times, then stands up with grace. "I don't have to tell you anything. Even if we did sleep in the same bed." The Silver-Haired girl walked towards the wooden desk and picked up two black bowls. "Here catch." She spins around and tosses the bowl towards Malary. The bowl spins like a little flying sauser dead set on hitting its target. Mallary lifted a pillow and caught the bowl.
"You throw like a girl," he said, placing the pillow back down. Mallary removed the bowl from the pillow.
"Well, you catch like a girl," she shot back with a glare.
"While I have your attention. Can I show you a much simpler way of getting out of bed?" Mallary kicked his feet out and leaned forward. "See?" He started walking towards the girl.
The girl looked out the window and ignored Mallary as he approached her. "Grab some food, and get out." She said, not even turning to face Mallary.
"Ok, Ok. But first, I think we got off on the wrong foot." He bent downwards and spread out his hands. "Salutations, my name is Mallary. Now may I kindy ask what thy name is?" Mallary got back up and stared at the girl.
"Fine, I'll tell you mine name since you won't stop asking. My name is Waylan," she grumbled, still looking outside. Waylan turns back towards Mallary, "Now, over there." She points to a large jar in the corner of the enterance. "In that box, there is-"

"My bastard!" He shouted, interupting Waylan.
Waylan grabs her face, "What!?"
"Oh! I just realized I lost my sword."
"How it that my problem! In that BOX THERE IS FOOD!! SCOOP SOME OUT AND SIT THE FUCK OUTSIDE!!!" Her face turns bright red like a cherry.
"Ok, jeez... You don't have to be so rude." Mallary walk toward the jar and drags it outside, slamming the door behind him.
"Finally," she says, falling to her knees. Waylan lies her head up on her chair and groans. Her mind is in shambles. She felt like her head was going to burst any second. "I shouldn't have drank so much." She rolls over and leans her back against her chair. Crossing her arms and lying her head on them. "She's right... No. She's wrong. I'm perfectly fine, I just had a little too much." She felt her stomach grumbling. Waylan grunts and wraps her arms around her stomach. Her stomach tightens up as something comes up her throat, giving her a burning sensation. She starts gagging but is ultimately able to swallow it back down. "See," she gasp, the burning in her throat made her voice raspy and painful to breath. "Just fine."
The sun fades in the shadows and darkness spreads out, covering the room. Waylan shivers as the coldness floods the room like a plague. A feeling of emptiness drowns her as she rocks back and forth. "I don't need anyone. I'm fine. They don't need to worry. I've always been fine."

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
