《The Diamonds》What the keys are for

{Ron}
"Shit, shit, shit and shit again!" I snarled as I started to destroy the room in a temper tantrum. I started with the pillows first. I took them off the bed and ripped them in half. "Dr. Crow you fucking bastard!"
I snatched the sheets off the bed next and tore them to shreds. "Goddamn you! You bastard! You bastard! You bastard! YOU BASTARD!"
I tried to destroy the bed but whatever the bed was made of didn't allow me to. The mattress on the bed spring was nailed down to the bed. I heard Asher and Wrinkler talking in the doorway.
"Okay," said Asher, "I think Ron has officially gone nuts!"
"No kidding!" Wrinkler said. "You think maybe we should go talk to Patty about this? She'll know what to do!"
"I. AM. FINE!" I roared.
"Okay, okay, calm down please!" Asher pleaded. "You're scaring us! Do you need another slap to face? Because I can do that if need be."
I took a couple of deep breaths and sat down on the bed and composed myself. "I spoke to Abigail again."
Wrinkler paused. "Huh? How? She's not here, unless she managed to escape and returned to HQ?"
I shook my head. "No that's not it. She's still with Dr. Crow. It's hard to explain but for whatever the reason, I can speak to Abigail in this weird limbo connection we have."
Wrinkler gasped, "Did you just say limbo connection? Now way! I've heard of that happening before and it only happens between two Diamonds when they're in love! And it has to be true love! But how? You two only got together a few days before she got captured!"
"I knew it!" I snarled. "You did know more than what you lead on! Tell me what you know!" I sank to my knees after I got off the bed and I pleaded with Wrinkler. "Please, help me understand Wrinkler. I need to know what I can do to save Abigail."
Wrinkler nodded, closed the door and locked it. He made me sit back down on the bed and sat down next to me and Asher. He sighed, "This is a long story and it's going to sound like a fairytale. Are you sure you want to know?"
I nodded and I looked over at Asher and he nodded.
"Okay then, here goes…" Wrinkler began his explanation and he was right, it did sound like a fairytale. "A long time ago, there was a planet called the Diamond Planet. On that planet, lived powerful beings called the Diamonds. They were pretty much indestructible in every way. Anyway, the Diamond planet was said to be indestructible but then one day, it got destroyed. No one knows who did it until this day. But the Diamonds escaped and went to Earth and when they did they went to a castle in the center of this very city called Shaw Castle.
"They stayed there for a short period of time when the Government found them. Their leader who was a queen at the time Queen Pearl made a peaceful relationship with them. Shortly after that, for some reason the Diamonds transformed into humans and lost their memories. Their memories, their powers and everything that made the Diamonds who they are were hidden away in the form of a key.
"From what we were able to gather, the powers that lie within these keys can lay dormant for a short period of time. When they start to become active then they need to be brought to the one that they belong to immediately."

I looked down at my key I had on a necklace around my neck and grabbed it, squeezing it in my hand. "So this key wasn't given to us as an upgrade for a high ranking agent. This key was given to me to help me remember who I really am? Why wasn't it given to me sooner?"
"Because your powers along with the others that were given those keys remained dormant until now," Wrinkler answered.
"So what happens if the key isn't returned to its owner?" I asked.
"From what I've seen along with the others that know about you guys," said Wrinkler. "The key will return itself to its original owner but in that process it will cause as much destruction as it can in its path. So yeah once the keys become active and they unlock everything about you you won't need them anymore as a matter of fact, the key will disappear.
"Now tell me, what did Abigail say to you in that limbo connection you two have? The more information I know the more I can help you."
I gulped, "She said Dr. Crow used the Breeding Crystal on her."
"What?" Wrinkler gasped. "The Breeding Crystal! Why would Dr. Crow want her to give birth to a child?"
I shook my head. "That's not the case. Dr. Crow wants a child but he doesn't want it in the same manner that you think he would. He doesn't want Abigail to carry the child because he knows Abigail doesn't want to be pregnant so it won't work. He wants to carry the baby!
"And he also told her something else, he wants not only to put her underneath the Fog again, he wants to use a weapon called Brainwashing on her."
"Why that bastard!" Wrinkler snarled. "How on earth did he get hold of Brainwashing Crystals?"
I tilted my head. "Huh? Brainwashing Crystals?"
"What do you mean by that Wrinkler?" Asher asked.
Wrinkler sighed, "All you have to do is gather nine of those crystals and lay whoever you want to brainwash on an altar. You take all nine crystals and surround the altar with them. It takes a while, a day to be exact and once it's done whoever has been brainwashed, their reception about what the world is is distorted. But there is hope within the darkness when the brainwashing happens."
"What might that be?" Asher said. "How can there be any hope?"
"Abigail's reception of what reality is distorted," said Wrinkler, "her memories won't be. She'll remember who she is and digging deep inside her memories you might just be able to restore her to her old self."
I looked at the key again and smiled. "Come back to me…"
Asher raised an eyebrow. "Come back to me? What are you talking about Ron?"
"It's a code phrase I came up with for her," I explained, "hopefully, the next time I see her… If I have to fight her… She'll remember her love for me and come back to me. Listen, I don't know if I'm going to lose the limbo connection-"
"I doubt that will happen!" Wrinkler declared.
"Huh? What do you mean?" I asked.
"You love her don't you?" Wrinkler asked.
I nodded. "Yes."
"She loves you doesn't she?" Wrinkler asked.
I nodded. "Yes she does."
"Then you shouldn't lose that connection," Wrinkler said with a smile, "No matter what happens from this point forward, you two will always be connected."

I looked when I heard Asher sniffle. I smiled. "Are you crying Asher?"
Then he said the classic every guy says just to save face, "No I'm not crying, I got dust in my eyes that's all."
"Uh-huh you know that's the classic line every guy uses just to save face right?" I said.
Wrinkler snorted, "Yeah well at least he hasn't tried a gross pick-up line on me yet. And no I'm not saying what it was either! It was just gross and I just ate before you did so I don't feel like throwing up right now."
Asher gagged, "Yeah don't remind me. I hope I never have to work with another Agent Jaws ever again! What on earth was Patty thinking? And how in the world did someone so fat get to become a DA? Gross! That's all kinds of messed up!"
Wrinkler, Asher and I got a good laugh out of that thought. I stopped laughing and looked around my now destroyed room. Thankfully, my dresser with my clothes in it was spared from my temper tantrum. "Well I guess I'd better clean up the aftermath of my temper tantrum."
"Yeah but this won't take long to clean up," Asher said. "I'll help you."
"And I can help out too," Wrinkler said.
So Wrinkler and Asher helped me clean up my room and it didn't take long.

When Wrinkler and I went to talk to Patty about what Abigail told me, she wasn't too happy about it.
"Breeding Crystals!" Patty snarled, slamming a fist down on her desk. "And Brainwashing Crystals next!" Patty was livid with rage at this point. "That bastard!"
"That's exactly what I said when I destroyed my room in the process of a temper tantrum," I said.
Patty paused. "Uh, huh?"
"Oh yeah," Wrinkler said with a nod, "Ron was freaking maniac! Although that's understandable considering what's happening now with Abigail. Do you have any idea from your informant where she might be?"
Patty shook her head. "Unfortunately, for the time being nothing. It's almost like Abigail just dropped off the grid or something. But if Dr. Crow's getting ready to brainwash her, I don't know if we'll be able to find her until after she resurfaces. Did she give you any clue as to where Dr. Crow is keeping her Ron?"
"Not much," I replied, "she didn't seem to know where she was either. All she said was she was in some sort of dungeon that was set up to look like a room."
"Okay that sounds like a place in Shaw Castle," Patty responded, "or it's a place that's in one of Dr. Crow's lair's. It's hard to say so you and Asher will have to be on call until she's spotted again. I'm sorry but I don't think there's anything we can do to stop the brainwashing. I'm not sure if that can even be undone."
"Oh," I said.
"But what about me?" Wrinkler asked. "Shouldn't I be on call as well?"
Patty shook her head. "No, you're my assistant and one of the higher ranking agents," She paused. "Actually, you're being sent out on missions might work in our favor. The sooner we can spot Abigail, the better. More than likely after the brainwashing is done Dr. Crow will be sending her out to capture other DA's and bring them to him so he can brainwash them as well."
Wrinkler nodded. "Makes sense to me."
"Can I make a request for when Asher and I get sent out to go after Abigail again?" I asked.
"What is it?" Patty replied.
"Can you please not send a low ranking fat DA with us?" I said. "Because that was ridiculous! I mean the guy pretty much ate as much as he weighed in food every chance he got."
Wrinkler snorted. "And don't forget the gross pick-up line he did on me."
"Uh, gross pick-up line?" Patty said.
"You don't want to know," Wrinkler said.
"Alright then," said Patty, "well now that that's taken care of, Ron and Asher will wait for my call when we've spotted Abigail."
I nodded. "Oh and one more thing, what do we tell the others about why Abigail's been out on a mission for so long? Usually DA's, especially the high ranking ones like her don't take this long to come back from a mission. The others are starting to get worried."
"Okay just tell them that she's on a really difficult mission," Patty said. "She's the only one suited for the mission so that's why it's taking so long. We don't know when she'll be back because of that."
"Okay then," I said. With that, I got up and left the room. I didn't like the fact that I would be on call waiting for Abigail to resurface. But I also had hope that with Wrinkler still being sent out on missions that we would be able to find Abigail and she would once again be safe with me and I could once again hold her in my arms.

{Dr. Crow}
I smiled as I laid in my bed holding Shinjin in my arms after I had just slept with him. I looked over at the Brainwashing Altar where Princess Black was sleeping. I couldn't wait until the process was done so I could be with her again. She's mine whether she wants to be or not, she'll just have to deal with it. The same thing goes for Shinjin and he knows it too. The same thing will be for Prince Silver when I get my hands on him. Shinjin, Princess Black and Prince Silver are the only people I want in my bed and they're the only people I'm actually interested in. I've given my heart to them but they don't feel the same way which is understandable because I take them against their will every chance I get.
I can't help myself, their bodies are so sexy to me and what I want I get by any means necessary and they know better than to reject me. Honestly, it's too bad that when a person is going through the Brainwashing Ritual they are automatically put to sleep because if they're not asleep the Ritual won't work. Even though I like taking Princess Black and Shinjin against their will, I'd rather have them awake for it. That's because I love seeing their reactions to me.
As I kept thinking about all of the wonderful things I'm going to do to Princess Black when she wakes up, Shinjin stirred and opened his eyes. I love those eyes of his. Those beautiful gray eyes.
He rolled over and looked at me. It always made my heart melt when he gave me that puppy dog look and I knew what it was for. But he knew that if he begged me not to do something I wasn't going to change my mind. But he always tried to reason with me even still.
"Why?" Shinjin asked. "Why did you have to brainwash her? Why wasn't putting her underneath the Fog enough?"
"You know why I did it Shinjin," I responded, "it's no fun if she doesn't come to me willingly. Even though I loved her sassy remarks to me when I tightened the Fog, I want her to come to me of her own accord. The sex is even better that way. It's way too much work when she fights me. She has more will than you or Prince Silver to try and get away from me. Not to mention in the future when I decide to make her my wife, I want her to think that she said yes to me of her own free will."
Shinjin looked at me in horror. "You're going to force her to marry you? You know that's all kinds of messed up right? Even if she does think she's doing it of her own free will, it won't be real love if that's what you're going for."
Shinjin did have a point. Although I loved Princess Black, I knew she would never love me the same way that I loved her. I loved her the very moment I laid eyes on her back at the Diamond planet. I was one of King Ibee's trusted advisor's. I had tried to win her over the regular way but for whatever the reason she was afraid of me. I also found out that Princess Black was in love with Prince Silver. Her father King Ibee and her mother Queen Pearl had already decided that Princesses Black and Prince Silver were to be married within a few years.
Then King Ibee left to go to earth to make peaceful relationships with the humans in case the Diamond planet was destroyed. They had no idea that I was the one planning to destroy the Diamond planet and I was going to take Princess Black and Prince Silver with me and we would be one big happy family together. Even if it wasn't real love, I would have them and they would be mine.
When King Ibee didn't return from his mission to planet earth and I became the King in place of him it was easy for me to put my plan in place. Once that happened I knew I wasn't a King anymore because I committed the ultimate treason against my people by destroying their home.
"Yeah I know it won't be real love," I said, "but at least it'll look like it. Ever since I got my memories back, I remembered being in love with Princess Black even before I became the King of the Diamonds. I found out she was in love with Prince Silver and that pretty much broke my heart. When I became the King I took full advantage of those two. I must say I didn't realize how sexy they were until I got them in my bed the first time. After that I was pretty much addicted to them."
Shinjin sighed, "Well, I guess there's no talking you out of this is there?"
I smiled. "Nope I'm doing this. Princess Black and Prince Silver are going to be mine whether they want to be or not."
Everyone that I love knows that when I want them I will have them. I won't stop until I have them so they have no choice but to be mine.

Tales From the Terran Republic
We tried, you know… We really did. We tried so hard to be… better… We actually were better once. No, seriously. We were enlightened, generous, peaceful… Stop laughing! We were! We were peaceful, dammit! No, I’m not “tugging your winglets.” It’s true! Look, if you’re going to be like that, I’ll just push the launch button right now. See ya, don’t wanna be… Oh, you ARE interested after all? Ok. Hey, I just got word that your captain will be ok. We were able to get him into a med pod quick enough… Of course, we tried to save him. Just what sort of people do you think we are?... Now that was harsh… completely accurate, mind you… but harsh. Anyway, like I was saying, we were a prosperous, peaceful people, and war had been nothing but a distant memory for over five hundred years before it happened... Before Yellowstone happened! You don’t mean to tell me that you didn’t know about that… massive supervolcano? Blew the Hell out of our planet? Two years where nothing grew?… Anyway, that’s what started it, the Sol Wars… Oh, you have heard about those, huh? Well, needless to say, all that enlightened, generous, and peaceful didn’t exactly make it through the two years of complete famine and the wars that followed… Maybe it’s more accurate to say the enlightened, generous, and peaceful among us didn’t survive… (laughs)… You’re right. It does explain a lot, doesn’t it? Probably for the best, though. “Enlightened” and “peaceful” aren’t really all that useful out here in the galaxy at large, are they? That reminds me; thanks for the ship. You guys did a great job with this one. Oh, don’t be like that. At least it was us what got you and not one of the really messed groups like the Harlequin or the Black Angels. We’re just going to take your shit. It could be worse… trust me... Well, anyway, we loaded the life pods down with some good food, and you guys can drink alcohol, right? We put in a couple of fifths in there, too. It’s about forty percent ethanol, so be warned. Most species will want to dilute that. We’ll drop your wounded off somewhere safe once they are stable. Your fleet patrols this area fairly regularly, and we’ll drop the distress beacon right before we jump… Well, It’s been fun and no hard feelings, right?… Oh, you want to know some more? Sure. I got time to kill… Let me tell you about this one pirate and her crew. They’re Terran scum, but they are still… Why do we hate the Terrans? Hoo Boy… How much time you got? *** It’s the thirty-second century, and humanity is now part of a galactic civilization comprised of hundreds of worlds. Humanity has been savaged by natural disaster and war and has been fractured into several separate populations, all of which loathe each other (some things never change). This is a gritty drama-driven rambling tale that swings between action, drama, horror, and plenty of very, very dark comedy. Warning: contains adult situations, absolutely horrible language, bathroom humor, implied ultra-violence, actual ultra-violence, drugs, alcohol, pirates, mercs, xeno prostitutes, moral ambiguity, deranged AI's with identity issues, giant commie space slugs, and a poor little frog girl who just wants to sell coffee. Updates twice weekly on Tuesday and Friday. *** Note: This story can get rough. Those warning tags? They aren't for show. I recently received a review and as a result I want to make one thing clear. Portraying something is NOT endorsing it! Many "heavy" topics are touched upon and just because a character says or does something does not imply that the author feels the same way. I selected the "Anti-Hero Lead" and "Villainous Lead" tags for a reason. Rule number one of this story is "no good guys". A good description of the story is, "bad people doing bad things to worse people". There are a few good characters, here and there, but they are the exception to the rule. If you want a hard-hitting, exciting, gritty sci-fi story that doesn't pull any punches, or shies away from "difficult" concepts, welcome! If you are set on a pure and noble knight that runs around and slays conveniently evil monsters and rescues totally innocent princesses... or your sensibilities are easily offended... You're not going to be happy with this one.

What if the world was an RPG?
What if the world turned into an rpg? Throughout my entire life I always dreamt about magic, fantasy and otherworldly stuff that could never exist in my world.I would constantly daydream about being a hero in another world or maby a demon king in another world. Not only would i dream these dreams for years on end, but i would also ask myself questions such as "what would happen if people got superpowers" or " What if there was a RPG-system that gave you a class and powers and so on". These were just some of the questions i would ask myself on daily basis, well rather than to ask myself questions about it. I dreamt about it, I wished for it and i begged for it, but to no avail. So what was to come now, when a bluescreen suddenly popped up infront of my face and my surroundings turned to white.

Sage Fall
Out of hiatus, but with a hitch. . Read most recent "chapter", Status Update, for more info. Trapped for thousands of years. Betrayed by the ones he held dear, the ones he called family. Finally set free by happenstance, Amrin sets out to find the ones that locked him in the heart of a mountain. Find the answers he's been asking himself while conscious within the darkness. The world has changed in his time away. Learning new things, meeting new people, struggling with questions he may never get the answers to. He will journey through this new world and search for the "family" that betrayed him and figure out why they did it. If they did not have the answers he was looking for, there would be consequences. *This is a VERY HEAVY story driven fiction (read: can be slow!). There are some sections of action, drama and soon/eventually, mature related content (sexuality and gore). There are going to be sections with lots of text and little dialogue. There's going to be sections with lots of dialogue and little descriptive narration. ***Word of warning and advice. To save yourself the potential disappointment! The MC is mostly a pacifist! If you're looking for a super OP protagonist that uses his powers to get what he wants and to hell with the consequences, this story IS NOT for you. There are times when it should be obvious why, other's it's only implied. Either way, if you are expecting "shoot first ask questions later" mentality from the MC, regardless of how powerful he is, save yourself the disappointment and look elsewhere. I want to give a HUGE THANK YOU to all the readers and commenters of my story. It's all the positive feedback and comments that really give me the motivation to keep going. Honestly. It sounds cheesy, but it's true. So, again. Thank you!
