《Emerald》63
Advertisement
The day of Fleur and Bills wedding, was a bright sunny day.
The wind was warm and light.
I wore one of Ginnys dresses, which was light green.
It was long and tight fighting.
After Hermione and I got ready, we walked into the tent with Harry and Ron.
People were talking and drinking, everyone seemed to be enjoying themselves.
Hermione and Ron walked away to talk with others.
"Well, hello." A soft voice said from behind us.
We turned to see Luna smiling, accompanied by her father.
"Hi, Luna." Harry said.
I gave her a hug.
"How are you?" I asked her.
"Very well, I can see your still upset about that blonde boy." Luna replied.
"Luna, dear..." her father hushed her.
"It's alright." I laughed.
I swear Luna could read minds.
"When I choose too." Luna spoke to me as he father talked to Harry.
Harry listened to him, as he glanced at the chain around her father's neck.
"Come now, father. Harry doesn't wish to speak to us anymore. He's just too kind to say it." Luna took her father by his arm, and led him away.
"I guess it's just us then." I looked at Harry.
His attention was directed across the room, he wasn't listening to me.
"I'll be right back." Harry quickly said, walking into the crowd of people.
I sighed to myself, as I walked over and grabbed a glass of champagne.
"I guess it's just.... me." I told myself sipping my drink.
The last time I was dressed up, I was at a party with Draco.
I hated how everything made me think of him.
Everything pulled my mind back to Draco.
I couldn't help it, he was under my skin.
A loud crash interrupted my thoughts.

Glass and decorations flew too the ground, as deatheaters entered at every side.
People screamed and ran, as the lights went out.
"Hermione!" I yelled, as I pushed through people.
She grabbed my hand, and pulled me close to her.
Ron and Harry ran to us, putting their hands on ours.
Hermione flashed us out.
We appeared in a an alley way.
"Where are we?" I asked.
Hermione took her bag off of her shoulder.
"Down town London... somewhere..." Ron replied.
"What about the others? What about our things?" Harry frantically asked.
"Shhhh," Hermione hushed him as she dug in her bag, "We can't go back. Everyone there probably flashed out and went into hiding. I've had our stuff packed for weeks now... it was only a matter of time."
Hermione pulled out a set of clothes for each of us, and we quickly changed out of our wedding attire.
We walked down the street a few blocks, and into a small coffee shop.
"What can I get for you?" The woman asked us.
"Cappuccino, please." Hermione said.
"Same." Harry replied.
"Yeah, what they're having." Ron said.
"Regular cup, with some cream." I smiled at her.
She walked to the back, and began making our drinks.
Two men walked in, I watched them as the other three talked amongst themselves.
I had a weird feeling about them.
I gave Harry a little nudge with my elbow.
He turned his head to them, just as one of them pulled their wand out of their pocket.
"Get down!" I yelled.
The two turned around, and casted at us.
The four of us ducked under the table, just in time.
"Stupefy!" I casted at one of them, knocking them back and to the ground.

Harry casted at the other, he too fell back.
The lady walked out with our drinks.
Once the sight of the destroyed room hit her, she dropped everything in her hands.
"Leave! Go, now!" Hermione yelled at the woman.
She frantically ran out of the back off the room.
"I'll look the door, and close the blinds." I replied stepping over the rubble.
"I'll get the lights." Ron said pulling something out of his pocket.
He flicked it open, and the light from the room went into the thing in his hand.
"Where did that come from?" I asked as I locked the door.
"Dumbledore, the guy came the other day and gave us stuff from his will." Ron smiled.
"Yeah, I got the golden snitch that I caught." Harry, said coming over to me to help me with the blinds.
"Where was I?" I asked.
"Sleeping, which reminds me..." Hermione dug in her bag.
She pulled out a small gold chain, and a set of small jars.
"This is what Dumbledore had for you." Hermione stuffed them back into her purse.
We quickly turned to the two men who were laying on the floor.
"Not very smart, are they." I said pushing ones face with my foot.
"Let's ki-" Ron began to say pulling his wand out.
"No!" Harry cut him off.
"Suppose he did Mad Eye?!" Ron argued.
"We will just wipe their memories. Quickly, we need to get out of here." Hermione told him.
Ron casted Obliviate on them, before we flashed out of there.
She brought us too the 12 Grimmauld Place.
We entered quickly, and went into a room.
We laid down for the night.
"Hermione, can you get me that gold chain if you could?" I asked her.
She dug through her bag.
When she found it, she tossed it to me.
As I placed it around my neck, I noticed a small loop and clasp.
"What's this part for?" I asked Hermione.
She reached her hand out and examined it.
"Don't know, the only things there for you were the jars and the chain." She whispered.
She turned her back to me, and closed her eyes.
The jars were very small, only about an inch tall.
That's when the idea popped into my head.
I pulled the small jar of Peruvian Instant Darkness Power out of my pocket.
Just as I thought, it latched onto the necklace.
"Perfect, now I can't loose it." I told myself as I laid down.
"Shhhh." Someone hushed me.
"Don't hush me, I wasn't being loud." I laughed.
"Who are you talking to?" Harry asked me.
"What do you mean?" I sat up quickly, "one of you shhhhh'ed me."
The others sat up, and Ron let the light into the room with his illuminator.
"That wasn't us." Hermione spoke nervously.
"Someone else is here." I began breathing heavily.
I could hear small footsteps in a cabinet across the room.
I stood up quickly and rushed over.

I Was Reincarnated as Someone's Mana??
My name is Magnus Karlsson, and by a series of rather unfortunate events that I had absolutely no say in, I was killed and reincarnated. In this story, you will follow Magnus as he tries his very best to survive in a world that's been thrown into chaos, together with the man whose mana he is, Allan Woodsworth. Well, not a man per se, more of a little boy who has no idea what the fuck is going on, but, you know... I'm sure it'll be fine. Nothing bad will happen to the pair. Nope. No abandoned kids here. Anyhow. The world that Magnus has been thrown into is one perversed by the will of a great mage who, three thousand years ago, decided that it would be a great idea to infuse all the people of the earth with so-called "orbs". These magical crystals allow their handler to control and generate mana, which they can then use to become mages. Most barely use them, since the mana cost of doing such a little thing as a fireball spell is absolutely ridiculous. Said mage, Theodore Cromwell, Magnus used his resources to infuse not only humans with orbs, but animals as well, giving rise to what the mage community calls "horrid perversions of nature", but what the common folk calls "monsters". Orbs can be used for much, and it is through orbs that people keep track on their level of mana and such, and destroying the orb of a monster is A, the only way to kill it and B, a good way to absorb extra mana and raise ones level. It is such an orb that Magnus has been tranformed into. ------ To those that care, I'm very sorry about the title, it's just that, well, it's very good to be blunt about isekais like this since people such as myself search precisely for this, so having super-serious names like "The Magnus of the World of Orbs" would turn people wanting a simple and fun isekai off. I hope you give this story a fair chance! ------ Edit: IWRASM now has a deviantart page!!! https://www.deviantart.com/thefunartcorner

Den of Vipers
The Year is XXXX, and a deep, heavy fog sets in all over not just the planet, but the whole of the universe, sending all within into a deep, deep sleep. When they awake, all has changed, and both for the better and the worse. Everything has changed, from the new, impossibly massive planet that all now occupy to the terrain to the very rules of reality themselves. But what has changed the most are the people. It seemed as though Humanity was alone in the cosmos, but no longer, as new, monstrous races have been born from the flesh of those whom the Fog singled out. With the survivors rewarded for each altered former human they kill, along with each heroic (and villainous) act that they engage in, those who have changed are forced to run, hide, and try to fight back. But in a distant place, a single altered person stirs from her sleep as the Fog fades. With no Humans for hundreds of miles and a [Quest] that all other Altered share guiding her newly inhuman mind, the newly born serpentine but humanoid monster will have to fight for survival and dominance in a world hellbent on her death, with that violent, pathological hate coming not just from the remaining Humans.
