Xena
The silence in the small room stretched like a blade. Liam’s breath still came ragged, his chest rising and falling as if he’d sprinted a marathon. The weight of her last words sat on him like an anchor dragging him to the bottom of an ocean.The girl sighed. Her eyes flickered with something softer, something almost human. She looked down for a moment, then back up at him.“Look,” she said quietly. “I’m really sorry. I didn’t mean to put your life in danger.”Liam froze. He wasn’t expecting remorse from her.. not after everything.She continued, her tone steady but edged with genuine regret. “It wasn’t my intention to force the system on you. Things… weren’t supposed to happen like this.”Liam swallowed hard, steadying himself. The storm inside him hadn’t settled, but her words gave him something to cling to. His brows furrowed, suspicion mixing with curiosity. “What are you talking about?”The girl took a slow breath, as though steadying herself for a confession. “I should probably
Soul Bound
Liam’s eyes fluttered open, heavy and sluggish. His throat felt dry, his head pounded like a drum, and the faint metallic taste of blood clung stubbornly to his tongue.The ceiling above him looked familiar; cracked plaster, a faint water stain near the corner… the same he had stared at countless nights when sleep refused him. It was his room. And he was in his bed, his sheets were tangled around him.For a moment, he almost convinced himself it had all been a nightmare: the alley, the crowbar, the hooded figure… her. The memory of the girl’s sapphire eyes burned behind his eyelids. The last thing he remembered was her face hovering above him before darkness swallowed him whole.He groaned, lifting himself with trembling arms. His ribs ached from where he’d slammed into the dumpster. “How the hell am I back here?” he wondered. “Did someone drag him home? Was it… her?”But then something caught him… a presence. The kind of primal chill that skitters down your spine when you’re not a
Green Serpent
As Liam and Ben pulled into the dining room, they were greeted with a chaotic scene.Four men were trashing the place, flipping tables and knocking trays to the floor. Customers had already fled, the few who remained were pressed against the walls in fear. The men all wore green headbands, fingerless gloves, and their exposed arms were covered in tattoos. And on their headbands, stitched in dark ink, was the sigil of a coiled serpent. Liam’s frown deepened. He could feel a hot surge of anger building. But Ben, instead of shouting or lunging forward, let out a weary sigh. He walked calmly towards the destructive intruders, his hands held up in a placating gesture. "Gentlemen, gentlemen," he began, his voice remarkably even. "What seems to be the trouble?"The leader, a hulking man with a shaved head and a cruel smirk, turned his gaze on Ben. "The trouble, old man," he sneered, "is that your weekly tribute to the Green Serpent gang is due. And we haven't received it."Ben exhaled slo
Ben’s Burgers
Nate was the kind of bully teachers feared to touch… his father ran a gang, and that automatically gave him immunity. He ruled the school unchecked, and scholarship kids like Liam were his victims.The moment Nate and his lackeys walked in, the chatter in the class died. And the remaining students scattered, slipping out the door without hesitation. No one wanted to be caught in Nate’s shadow.Soon, the classroom was empty, except for Liam at his desk… and Nate’s gang closing in.“Heyyy, Nate. How’s it going?” Liam muttered, forcing a smile as the bullies reached his desk.Nate didn’t smile back. His eyes were cold. “The physics assignment, Queen. What happened?” he asked sharply. Liam blinked, pretending to be confused. “Huh… what assignment are you talking about?” he shook his head innocently.BAM!Nate’s fist slammed down on the desk, the wood rattling under the force.Don’t bullshit me, Queen,” he growled. “Or my fist lands on your skull next.”Sweat beaded on Liam’s forehead. He
Clovis
The neighborhood stretched before them; cracked concretes, rusted pipes, buildings leaning against each other like drunkards.Their block still had running water and flickering power, which was a rare luxuries here. Its walls were bare, but it stood upright. Others had caved balconies, roofs patched with tin, and doors chained with rope.This was the city’s slum… a rough, breathing ghetto of survival.Clovis city was a Tier Three city, which meant it lacked a lot of nice living conditions. But it was still a lot better than the wasteland of Tier Four cities, where Rita’s mother still lived. Those were lands of chaos: lawless streets, no utilities… just gangs for government.In comparison, Clovis was paradise, with a semblance of order and normalcy still existing.Tier Two cities on the other hand, were worlds apart… basically half-utopias still haunted by crime, but extremely better than tier three cities.But Tier One cities? Those were heavens. The homes of the Awakened and elite h
Sacrifice
Liam stared at the screen, dumbfounded. "What the hell...?" he blurted out.Then a sharp, bitter laugh burst out of him. "Great. Now I'm in some kind of hentai game. Whoever's behind this, you win. Joke's over." he scoffed.The system. The screen. The quest. The preposterousness of it all. A delusional person might have probably indulged in the madness of the system and begun to look for ways to get laid before the clock ran out.But Liam wasn't delusional. And he certainly wasn't some horny pervert. So he simply took it as a joke. Some kind of elaborate game or prank, a glitch in his tired brain. But yet again, the screen looked so real. It felt genuine. And for a split second, Liam wanted to believe it was. But he quickly snapped out of it, shaking his head vigorously. "Nope! I'm not gonna fall for some ridiculous prank. Not today. Not ever." Then he tried to blink it away, to shake the screen out of his sight, but the translucent panel remained stubbornly in his line of sight.
