《The Typhoon’s Wife》The Typhoon's Wife
Advertisement
Neil drove the car angrily and went straight towards Mi Rae's house.Calling his informants in the media places,he said, "I want to know who is trying to create a wedge between me and my brothers and who is responsible for Attorney Zheng's defaming news pieces."
Receiving a positive reply,he put down his phone and tried calling Mi Rae but her phone was switched off.Cursing and worried about her,Neil stepped on the accelerator.
Her house was surrounded by the press reporters.They immediately leapt in his way when they recognized his car. The two security guards who had been having trouble handling the media heaved a sigh of relief.This was a simple residential area and they didn't have much experience with handling such matters.
Neil's face turned colder at the horde of reporters.This morning someone had released the news of Attorney Zheng being fired from her company for having broken client confidentiality.Alongwith that Neil had also been accused of using underhanded means to win his case as well as obstructing justice by helping a client flee before judgement.Though Imitating had not specifically mentioned,enough pointers had been given for people to guess. Someone had decided to use Neil's previous method to defeat him.Just as he was about to alight the car and face the jackals , his informant called him back. "Two forces are at play. The news houses received news from attorney Zheng's company and from the Hu's PR.
Since both had a common factor-You, they naturally linked both pieces.And now they are speculating that how you are involved since you are outside Attorney Zheng's house.. "
Neil smiled at that. They were in for a surprise.He smiled at the his person's updated information and gave him a scoop of exclusive news as a reward.

The door to the black Rolls Royce latest edition opened and out stepped a foot encased in crisp black trouser pants.
The cold and uncaring face was nowhere to be seen and in it's place was a charming and smiling face.
Like a mask, no one could have guessed this was the man whose brain was currently plotting against the media and his multiple enemies at the speed of light.The moment his face was recognized,the press was excited beyond expectations. Nobody knew where the Long Brothers lived so they couldn't wait at their doorstep and they had already been chased away from Lance Inc. And now the opportunity had walked to them. They surrounded him and fired questions at a rapid rate.Neil smiled at them and some of the female reporters almost felt themselves faint.
He looked around and drawled,"Seeing all of you here I expected to see an idol or a beautiful actress and here you all are coming at me.So my wonderful people how can this simple boring lawyer help you?"
Neil's laid back and open approach put the media at ease and they relaxed in their questioning.
One of the reporters asked softly, "Do you mean you are not aware of the news circulating about you and Attorney Zheng?"
"News? About us?Wow!You guys are fast.We only started officially dating and you already know?!I hope you people are not going to follow us on our date."
And the diversion worked.Forgotten were the pieces of news that they were waiting for. And this was much more interesting to their readers and thus better selling.
Before he could be bombarded with more questions,he further stared at the female reporters and asked,"Ladies,am I looking good for the date?Do you think my date will like me? "

The ladies all laughed while the men just shook their heads.The guy would look good in anything.They were the ones with the ordinary looks who had to worry about being appreciated by their dates.One of the female reporters remarked,"But why would you come empty handed?Very disappointing Mr Long."
But Neil just smiled and opening the back door of the car took out a big bouquet of flowers making the girls all swoon.
Waggling his eyebrows, he preened and made his way towards Mi Rae's house.But some reporters still retained their senses and asked, "So Mr Long,you know nothing about the accusations that have been alleged against you and Attorney Zheng?"
Neil stopped in his tracks and asked arrogantly,"Accusations?What kind of accusations?And if there are and you are waiting for a clarification then you are going to be disappointed.Because since I am not aware of any thing that I could have done to be accused then obviously whatever news is false.And really do you expect me to check the news and be late for my date?Goodbye everyone and please don't be here when I come out with my date.Goodbye."
Leaving them behind he went inside with a swagger but his expression had changed again and set into the same impassive lines. They thought they could defeat him using his own strategy.Attacking him and his integrity?They were going to suffer.Looking down at the flowers in his hands,his mouth settled in to a thin line.He knocked on the door of Mi Rae's house, he called out her name so that she would know who's come.The door opened a sliver and a pair of big eyes stared at him.

The Underbelly
There's something wrong with Port City. In the aftermath of the Hyde Park massacre, the city increased its police force dramatically, and Wyatt Milter found himself in uniform, with a gun, a badge, and dreams of someday making detective, but with no clue how to actually make it happen. These days a new, ugly kind of violence is rising on the streets. As a bizarre group of characters emerges from Port City's underbelly, Wyatt will be forced into making a difficult decision. Will he remain a cop? Or will he serve a different kind of justice? (Author's Note: I started writing this about 10 years ago and only now got around to the idea of uploading it. As a result, much of this predates the rising popularity of the Green Arrow. I'm uploading as is, but future drafts will make minor alterations to the character to differentiate it.)

The Swarm
Anthony had been looking forward to playing the hottest new virtual reality game. When he put the VR helmet on he was met with a prompt asking him if he wanted to take a test to become a swarm knight. Thinking that this was one of the classes in the game he accepted. Instead of finding himself in the game, Anthony found that he was transported to a different planet. A planet where he would learn the greater truth of the universe. Everything was based on magic in the universe. Except that magic was based on nanorobots, called the swarm, that had been created through highly advanced technology. Genetics determined the access level and the amount of control that someone could wield over the swarm, and therefore their status in this society. Long ago Earth had been cutoff from the swarm. Now that it had been rediscovered, Earth would be reintegrated into the swarm. Unfortunately when that happened all the current technology on Earth would fail and be replaced with the ability to use magic. In effect, it would be the system apocalypse. As someone able to control the swarm, Anthony found himself in the unique position to influence how Earth was reintegrated into the swarm. Perhaps he could change things enough to save most of the people on Earth. But first he would have to learn how to control the swarm and become one of the leaders in the society he found himself in. Warning: If this fiction was a movie I'd rate it somewhere between PG-13 and R for occasional scenes of violence, gore, and nudity.
