Home against Titans
Dana's heart pounded quickly, her mind experiencing a large influx of thoughts, emotions and worries. "How did mother become a titan?" She wondered. The Queen, high and mighty in her Titan form relaxed on the platform, then leaned towards her. "You seem quite surprised. This is what happens when you leave home and mother dearest." She sneered. Horror was still written on Dana's face, her inability to comprehend what had just happened was flooding her mind.She stuttered, "How… How?""I expected your reaction. You see? This was the plan from the first day, but you never waited for it to be actualised. You were hot headed. You wanted to be alone. Well, this is it now. Welcome home, Dana." She explained. David noticed the freeze in her. The system had glowed before him and informed him that the mission was null. He was relieved to know he didn't have to make a decision ahead of Dana, but he also didn't want her to break down at the horrific sight of her mother who was a Titan. He ste
The Rumbling
Life seemed futile, light, and even fragile in the atmosphere. The stench of death, rot and fear mixed together, bathing every occupant of the currently destroyed courtyard belonging to the Royal family of Titanos. The titans, all lined in their best gait, stood behind David and his crew, awaiting their signals to pounce on them. David's crew knew fear, however they were also ready to battle everything out. Death was not an unfamiliar concept to them, they understood what was needed to escape their scenario as soon as possible. Queen Anne, high in her Titan form laughed at the pitiable sight of all of them. The unconscious Audrey and Elias amusing her mostly. "Dana you foolish child. This is why you need counselling with leadership. Why did you bring children to a battle front?" She teased. Dana grumbled. She didn't want to attack first because she knew she could receive a surprising move. It was better to defend first, then attack, so she waited as her mother taunted her with ev
A Goodbye for everyone.
Ladus resonated beauty and tranquility. A town that had experienced its highs and lows in recent times. From what was an uneventful, family filled gold mining town to an expanded settlement, accommodating people of other towns and kingdoms. And finally, their own forest becoming home to Fairies from another realm. Ladus represented change and growth, two qualities only a few settlements could boast of in the continent. The day was still bright as ever. Their heroes had just left the town to deal with an emergency that seemed an imminent threat to the entire continent. The Fairies had decided to hold up their own promise to defend the land and had set up their guards, aided by the remaining knights of Esmeralda to protect Ladus from any other disturbances. As the day went calm, moving from morning to noon, everything suddenly went dark. Darkness Ladus had only experienced twice against the void had returned, and it was different. It didn't feel like a life destroying force The Void
It's all up to you now.
Meena walked out of the portal last, her mind still stuck with Dana's last words to her. She held the advice tight and already considered it…She was going to see her family right after and tell them the woman she had become since she left. Her eyes adjusted and she noticed the absurdity, the entire atmosphere was dark. Suddenly, she froze, her gaze landing on the rest who were all sprawled on the floor. She immediately turned invisible and quietly walked toward them. She looked above and her eyes met the mysterious figure of The One Beyond All. She trembled, reading an immense amount of power from the latter. She wondered how fast they took the rest down. Her gaze went to them again, they were still alive. Then she wondered,"Where is Audrey?" In that minute, she felt someone dashing from behind her and sidestepped. Audrey, coated in her armour of both light and darkness flared intensely as she charged at The One Beyond All. Suddenly, she froze mid air. By instinct, she shot beams of
Level 99; The revelation
David stood exactly opposite the System, an angry look on his face. He hated it, the things it did to him, the things it made him do. From the first minute he got into the game, it directed him towards a path of violence, gore and death. It made him do just one thing…kill. Kill without remorse, without feeling, without thought. But David was only human, he could feel the guilt from ever kill he made, even the worst of the worst he killed hurt his conscience, and it made him despise the System. Even if he had been on the dark path, he was still good enough to realise that the source of such evil had to be gone. He wondered if it would transfer its legacy to Audrey, shaping her after it. He knew he wouldn't be able to deal with that, especially when he left the game. He didn't have the words to say, all he wanted to do was attack, and he did. He lunged towards the system fastly. The latter sidestepped his attack, and slammed its hand into his back, the force slamming him against the ha
Mother Knows Best
Ten years ago, Jasmine Anne Hart got up from her bed. It was her son's birthday, but she could not afford the luxury of celebrating the entire day with him. She had work, and he has school. She was early, helping Martha, the maid to prepare the meals, especially David's favourites, then left, leaving behind a gift to him with a heartfelt note. Within her, she smiled. "He'll definitely love it." She drove outside the estate and on to the road, heading towards her workplace. Being the wife of a billionaire CEO of a software development company, it wouldn't take much to deduce that she worked for him, but did on her part… what would be known as her own project. She was close to a break through, a milestone she has always envisioned since she started drafting her plans. She didn't bother seeing her husband or his closest friend, she just went straight into her workspace, kicking off her work for the day. She settled on a chair and tapped quickly on the keyboard, inputting codes and
It is over, Mother.
Audrey's eyes opened, meeting David's frame covering her. She was sprawled on the floor, watching David exchange words with The One Beyond All. She had been conscious enough to hear that the mysterious being was David's mother, who in a sense was also her mother, given the fact that she gave her abilities when she was just a baby. Slowly, she crawled back. David needed help and she intended to give him that. She saw David glance at her, checking every other person alive in the laboratory then he faced his mother back. Slowly, she gathered her strength and rose, just in time to see her kill David. "No." Escaped her mouth. Her body froze for a few seconds, her mind still struggling to comprehend what she had just seen. She looked at Jasmine who had an evil smirk on her face. After all her words on wanting to end David's sufferings, she didn't exhibit a sign of regret, rather pleasure at what she just did. "Audrey. Dearest child. I'm afraid it is time you joined David." She spoke. A
Level 100: The end.
Brett, Bill, Scar and Sarah were all silentl watching David encounter his last opposition. They also received the ultimate shock of David's mother being the villain behind everything and were reacting to it differently While the others views it as confusing and shocking, To Brett, the news seemed like the closure he had sought for a long time. He was still lost him his stream of thoughts, words unspoken as they rummaged his mind. Sarah kept her eyes glued to the screen, then out of anger, rose as Jasmine killed David. "I've had enough. We can't just sit down and watch David fight for his life." She spoke. Their attentions shifted to her as though she had something additional to say, but there was nothing. Brett took his glasses off then wiped his face with his palm. "I don't know Sarah. From what we're seeing, there is nothing we can do. David is dead, and even if he has any tricks up his sleeves, I don't see him defeating his mother or leaving. This is the system that literally
Goodbyes
There was a smooth ambience creeping over space and time. Nature seemed out of the picture, but the serenity made the environment calm. David found himself in the centre of the realm and he was confronted by what he would consider, his past. Before him were all of his friends in the game's world. He smiled, he knew he was dead, and they also were. He would be with them at that moment, probably seeking a "Happily ever after" ending. "Guys." He breathed, approaching them. They were all smiling, giving him loving looks. He stepped forward, and a few metres away from them, he stopped. It seemed as though an invisible barrier separated him from them and he frowned, wondering, "Could this be another mind fuck?" Before he could say a word, challenging the system, Colleen spoke. "David. You did it." "Did what?" He wondered. He knew he defeated his mother already and was already an S rank player. However, his mind was stuck on one confusion, he desired to know if he was truly dead, or in
Revelation…
The night was unusually cold, an element indicating the beginning of winter. People moved around, coated in their thick sweaters and some slipped their hoodies on. It had been months since David had returned to the real world and life seemed to move fast. He easily adapted to his new direction in life, enjoying the benefits and privileges he got, acknowledging the man he had become after his experience in the game. With him and Sarah making up, burying the relationship he had with Colleen in the past, they both got engaged, and had their wedding plans shifted for December. Life seemed good, and would obviously get better. For Scar, he was glad his life was on track, with his daughter happy and him getting fond of David, he tried to hard to suppress the bulging thoughts in his mind, and finally, he decided to let them out to the subject of his thoughts.He sat on a bench park, watching teenagers stroll, crack jokes and occasionally, fight. He shook his head, wondering if he could e
