《Finding Emma》Chapter 12
Advertisement
Peter crumples to the ground, yelping. Evelyn holds a gun, staring at me.
-
-
Tris' mouth is still wide open, and she stares at Evelyn. "Th-thank you," she says. I place my hand upon Tris' back and I rub it tenderly.
-
-
Evelyn nods. "Now, what do we need to do to get the city to cooperate?" She asks me.
-
-
"This isn't about containing the city anymore," I say, shifting Emma on my hip. "This is about the people outside of that wall. They need to come into the city and be saved, and the people in the city should be able to leave if they want. We need to notify them on what is going on, now."
-
-
"I've already made a video, before I came to save you," Tris says to me. "Can I project it on the screens.. Like Jeanine did?"
-
-
"Yes," Evelyn says, opening up her computer. "Here. If you give me the flash drive, I can upload it for you..."
-
-
"Thank you," Tris responds to Evelyn, pulling a flash drive out of her pocket and handing it to her. "I need to find Christina and Caleb," she says to me. "Do you want to come with and bring Emma?"
-
-
"Sure," I reply. "Emma, we're going to find Christina and Caleb, okay?" I ask her.
-
-
She looks up at me. "Dada," she says. I give her a small smile and kiss her cheek.
-
-
Tris and I find both Caleb and Christina talking with Uriah at one of the top levels of Erudite. We're about to walk up to them, but then I hear Tris' voice on the loudspeakers.

-
People bustling around Erudite Headquarters stop and look at the video projecting in the middle of the building. I know people are listening outside, too.
-
-
Emma looks around, hearing the voice, and then she looks at Tris. She gives Tris a small smile and points to her with her tiny pointer finger. "Mama," she says.
-
-
Tris suddenly smiles so big at her. I hand Emma to Tris, and Tris pokes her on the nose. "I guess we're a family now, aren't we?" Tris asks little Emma, who giggles in response.
-
-
I put my hand on Tris' back as we watch the video together with Emma and the rest of the city. We're like a little family now, the three of us.
-
-
It is our time now to decide what we need to do to fight back. David can be defeated. We need to not only save the city, but the people in the Fringe. Once and for all.

To Snag A Vampire
Where you would expect a brother-knight to be a paragon of virtue, discipline, and modesty — Oliver Arborough is a little off the mark, what with his frivolous, flippant nature and the tendency to give in to worldly desires. Teetering on the line between the finer things in life and the order’s tolerance, he faces a challenge that might just send him over the edge; On a routine assignment to kill some local legend terrorizing a rural countryside, our strapping young knight encounters an unparalleled beauty in the form of a young woman called Lenora — who happens to be said local legend terrorizing said rural countryside. And so begins the tale of a young knight and his reluctant companion, in a journey that the order most definitely would not approve of and could very well spell a life of hardship and strife for him in the future — but hey, doesn’t that just add to the thrill of it?

Aoi
The sea of stars. The momentaneous lifeforms that flicker far away. Our futures — a sea brimming with light. Each and every shimmer in the starry canvas serves as one’s infinite opportunities in the vast sea of the future. On a once unremarkable day, a mysterious girl displayed powers beyond the capabilities of humans in front of many onlookers who knew only the ordinary: Powers of Ice creation. Riki, a normal young man in the midst of the crowd, was astonished to see such a spectacle, but this astonishment quickly transforms into dismay. From the appearance of calm, yet scorching blue flames, he realized the sole reason she was using powers in the first place was to only protect herself from two who have possession of powers akin to hers. And in failing to do so, the last thing Riki saw was the angst look in her eyes before she disappeared from his sight. That was the only one remaining memory he can recall. Thrusted into an organization filled with supernatural stargazers, Riki's only goal is to retake everything back: a journey to take back both his past and his future. Through this journey, it will mean to discover the underlying truths of the world. Any illustrations I use for covers and chapters are illustrations I have drawn myself unless otherwise stated.

Something about him was familiar, as though I had known him for years.One hand still grasping mine, he moved his other into my hair, stroking softly. His warmth surrounding, his touch calmed me.I couldn't move. I could barely breathe. My mind was blank. It was like nothing I ever felt before. I was lost in his eyes, in his warmth, in the feeling that I was safe. At that moment I wished to stay forever. I also knew better than to remain here. However, my muscles went numb under the warmth of his hands. I couldn't move.I layed there him stroking my hair in shock for what in my head felt like forever. Eventually, he leaned down and spoke into my ear making my whole body shiver."My dear, I have waited for this moment for years," his voice was beautiful, strong and warm. Like the wind on a summer day. He had humor in his eyes and I found it extremely unsettling.There was something off about his tone. Almost like I was dreaming, but I knew it wasn't one. Something powerful and dangerous was in his voice... Ohhh no! This wasn't some random mortal standing over me. This.... this... this was a god...Credit to Rick Riordan for building such a wonderful world to put stories into and creating some of these amazing characters.
