《The book of forever》Chapter 4: A brighter future
Advertisement
We have expanded across the known world, our civilization now at its peak. Death rates drop by every coming day, truly I am blessed to live in this time. Standing, the apex of society, from here I can see grandiose futures, from here my worries shorten as I laugh. My friends of two hundred years by my side, an infinite future in front of us; The possibilities make me shudder. Joining the second generations group, I never once doubted I’d end up here. Standing on this ark over the blue world, A gem which shines among the brightest stars. Where else can you find such life, varied kins. Where else can you find laughter in silence? I’ve not lived a short life by any means, however I cannot wish for much more.
However the world is slowly rotting, from it’s corners to it’s very blue core. The young ones lack foresight, I shall guide them. I dream of forever, they dream of feast; I dream of tomorrow, they struggle now. Such brightness would it be to have freedom, not even I am unafraid of death, can I escape to the stars for slumber? No… there is no better place than right here, at least we have not yet found it, empty. The search for a second world to feed us, one untouched by human greed, need; one we can have for ourselves, ones called “elves”. Our search has been futile, but life’s long. Let's hope that in but a few short decades, we see a utopia brighter than.
“The stars dim compared to humanity, but can we search for something brighter than…?”

Bon Week-end
He runs the underground. She’s made it her playground. Their time together--the stuff of pulp fiction. When a corrupt corporate conspiracy threatens to tear them apart, they blast back with their offbeat brand of crime and chaos. This story is just one from the pulps. Film critic Roger Ebert once described them as ‘cheap, disposable entertainment that you could take to work with you, and roll up and stick in your back pocket.’ So do just that--and read it on the weekend. Bon Week-end is a novel written in the tradition of Jean-Patrick Manchette’s neo-polar, existing now as what shall be known as the neo-serial. This is Nippoten’s second serial following the superhero epic Entirely Presenting You. This novel will have a rather unique release schedule compared to others. To stay up to date, check out the main site and more specifically the chapters page.

Hush | on hold
"Your name?"When I stayed silent, he repeated himself. "Your name?""Jeyri." I let out quietly."And last name?""Rae...""Jeyri Rae..." He crouched down next to me and moved the hair from in front of my face, "I dislike when things get difficult, I end up doing things I'd much rather not do. Do you want to know what happened to the last person who made things difficult for me, hmm?" He asked, leaning into me. Is he talking about me calling the cops? He pressed his gun against my head and frowned, "You get it don't you?"I nodded quickly. "Good... And if you tell anyone what you saw today, I'll know." He pressed his finger against my lips and smiled, "So hush."
