I AM HUMAN
Humanity had reached the stars and all was at peace with the world. That’s what the human representative federation tells the masses these days, acting as though a large majority of their planet wasn’t beyond recovery. Humans had violently discovered they weren’t the only things amongst the stars, bringing together in a long and devastating war, new cultures, new races, some more technologically inclined, some borderline sorcerous, possessing powers beyond measure and of course, monsters beyond any they could fathom.A figure rolled on the floor, their body bruised and their body trembling in pain, his assailants giggling at them each time they jerked in pain, he was human, a regular powerless human being with nothing to them other than being alive. “Come on Normie, stand up, I know you can do it”. The urged them to stand, yet they remained unmoving save for their trembling body. Perhaps in a better world a human like him would be celebrated alas after the war anything that lacked
Wrong
The place had no sky only a grey metallic ceiling, their rooms which existed more like cells had no lights, they had only a singular opening allowing them to gaze outside at their captors or perhaps at the distant cell. The sounds of foot falls had brought many to the narrow windows of their cells to catch a glimpse of what would be happening today, they gazed upon a pale skinned boy with white hair, his hair was cut low and his ruby eyes were lifeless. The boys face lacked any discernible expression, if anything he simply looked empty, hollow even, his hands hung limply in front of him bound by his shackles, the faceless enforcers and researcher leading him to his new residence. “Subject 256, this is your new facility”. The woman with red skin and obsidian horns adjusted her frames and looked at her holo-deck, no one actually needed glasses these days, it was mostly just an accessory. The boy looked up at her and slowly nodded. The shackles came apart with a click and he trudged
Overload
The facility was crumbling faster and faster with each passing second under the crushing might of the boys black hole sphere anything that couldn’t withstand the strain reduced to atoms in his presence, luckily his companions where doing well. Sona, didn’t get any actual boots in combat ability as her own power had to do with the restriction of the abilities of others, this would be fairly dangerous in most situations, perhaps make for a star law enforcer in the federation, if abilities where still scarce that is. She quickly learned however that it did nothing to racial traits, which may seem like abilities and had almost no effect on transformation-based abilities. The era of abilities and many ways to be supernatural her abilities where strangely limited . In this situation however it had spared them from being crushed under the might of their friend and get as far away as possible, “Should we help him?”. Demiurge asked after knocking down an enforcer with his partially transf
Grand jester
He opened his eyes in Darkness, unyielding darkness and silence, his body was sore, his entire mind was aflame with pain although he bore no visible wounds. He couldn’t help but sigh in relief however as such pain at least meant that he was alive. While he relaxed himself the darkness stirred, something massive was moving, it made a loud dragging sound that echoed in the endless expanse of darkness, it drew closer to him until the sound was just beside his ears, laughter came next, reverberating, loud and chilling laughter.Through the darkness a large face was outlined like it was pressing against something, stretching the space around it as it pushed against the darkness until it tore apart like paper. A clown’s face had emerged the bells on its head jiggling. It tilted its head from side to side and observed him in silence before pressing more of its body through the darkness, it contorted and squeezed until all of its body fit through the gap its face had created, the clown st
Pretty Little Doll
They sat him down with some of the nurses bringing in his food, he gradually shook himself free of the influence of his fear while also feeling a little ashamed of himself for his previous outburst.“Are you okay?” The asked after seeing him sigh, they had never dealt with something like that before and as such where a little lost as to how to handle it, waiting until he calmed himself down before asking, faces full of concern. “I’m fine,” he waved them off and took a second look around him “where are we anyway?” The two looked at each other awkwardly and tried their best to tell him what they knew, it hadn’t been long since they had gotten there themselves so they didn’t know much. Zed quietly listened to the two and found himself astonished by how stupid sentient races could be, with the abyss beasts destroying ships and obliterating people’s sanity, somehow the ability to experiment on the less fortunate never eluded them.“Hmm, well at least, we won’t be test subjects anymor
Hugh Ranking Doll
Zed eyed the creepy girl by his side with confusion his facial expression warped into a strange questioning look while the small woman kept smiling “why in the worlds have you been just following me around then?” The doll like girl giggled and tapped his nose, her matching crimson eyes staring into his own, “I thought it would be interesting” he eyed her suspiciously after her response, he was more inclined to believe she had never done this before and thus just ended up being awkward. ‘I feel sorry for her’. He sighed and shook his head, he didn’t even know what to say While Demiurge Just reminded silent, which he found rather strange, he had never known the fiend to be silent this long turning his head back to his friend he raised an eyebrow and asked. “What are you so quiet for?” The chimera like man tugged at his collar, recalling his first interaction with the pretty little doll that had awarded him quite a few broken bones, he looked back and forth between the two with suspic
Training from hell
The boy was gradually adjusting to his new field of view, after taking a deep breath and calming himself he slowly rose to his feet. It felt like he was on a boat, he could feel himself tilting to one side but never truly tipping over, the ground was obviously solid but felt like he was standing on pillows “You’re adjusting quite well” The man nodded and rose to his feet and took a step forward walking towards the level ground and was now standing upright like he was. ‘This is quite disorienting’ He thought as he had some what overcome his initial fear of the man or at least he had hoped so. He looked up the sky seemed to extend forever, with no clouds, no sun, just endless white, the place was brightly lit so he couldn’t help but wonder where the light was coming from “what is this place?” Zed had momentarily closed his eyes trying his best to steady himself , the memories of had rampage had left him with a lot of lingering pain. The man with the trench coat chuckled flicking
