The time machine had appeared in New York City’s central park. Robot David climbed off the bike and covered the time machine with the cloak to make it invisible.
‘Okay gentlemen, we are now in the field. This is not a drill, I repeat this is not a drill’ - said the colonel
‘Marking time machine location’ - said the captain
‘Very good captain - now let’s get moving and into a normal human animal behavior program. Starting recording devices’ - said the colonel
‘Yes sir’ - said the captain, flicking switches and turning dials.
Robot David climbed from the bushes and walked to the path, Robot David was near Strawberry Fields and was walking towards Columbus Circle.
‘Are you getting this captain?’ - said the colonel
‘Yes sir’ - said the captain
‘This is indeed very different’ - said the colonel
‘Hey buddy!’ - said Robot David to everyone walking past - ‘‘Hey buddy!, Hey buddy!, Hey buddy!, Hey buddy!, Hey buddy!, Hey buddy!’
Robot David was walking with a strange gate, and taking extra long strides. Robot David had a fixed grin on its face.
‘Hey buddy!, Hey buddy!, Hey buddy!’ - Robot David continued
‘Go fuck yourself’ - said a man walking past
‘I FUCKING LOVE JESUS CHRIST MY FUCKING SAVIOR!’ - shouted robot David at the man.
Robot David arrived at Columbus Circle, and then crossed along the top of the park towards 5th Avenue.
A man was sitting in a carriage with two horses, waiting to take tourists on a tour of central park.
‘OH MY FUCKING GOD. I LOVE YOUR DOGS!’ - shouted robot David at the man.
‘Hey buddy!’ - shouted the man in the carriage - ‘Get away from the horses man, you are scaring them’
‘All looking good colonel’ - said the captain
‘Very good captain’ - said the colonel
Robot David continued to say ‘Hey buddy!’ to everyone he passed.
‘Fuck you asshole’ - said a woman
Robot David got to 5th Avenue and turned, heading south.
‘Okay, let’s pick up the pace a little bit’ - said the colonel
‘Yes sir’ - said the captain, and turned some dials.
Robot David started to run down the sidewalk of 5th Avenue, still saying - ‘Hey buddy!’ - and bumping into people.
‘Hey fucking watch it!’ - dozens of people shouted at robot David.
David got to the corner of 5th Avenue and 49th Street.
Pamela Stinton, an NBC journalist, was walking out of the NBC studio at 49th Street and she looked up and saw David Sterling running down 5th Avenue wearing olive green fatigues and black boots shouting “Hello buddy!” at everyone on the street.
As David Sterling approached, Pamela stepped out and robot David stopped.
‘Hey David’ - said Pamela
Pamela had interviewed David Sterling many times, and they knew each other well.
‘Hey buddy!’ - said robot David, jogging on the spot.
‘What are you doing?’ - said Pamela, looking at robot David’s strange smile.
‘Oh, me and the boys wanted to buy a new car’ - said robot David, still jogging on the spot.
‘On 5th Avenue?’ - said Pamela
‘You know, I just love magical creatures. Do you love magical creatures as well?’ - said robot David
‘Are you feeling okay David?’ - said Pamela
‘Hey, we should hang out’ - said robot David
‘You want to get a coffee?’ - said Pamela
‘Milk and two sugars please’ - said robot David
‘Sure, you want to go to Starbucks?’ - said Pamela, smiling at David Sterling’s odd behavior.

‘Initiate companion mode’ - said the colonel - ‘This human animal is a female of the species and may want to mate with us’
‘Yes sir’ - said the captain, turning dials
‘You are very beautiful’ - said robot David, stopping jogging on the spot.
Pamela blushed.
‘David, you are acting very strange’ - said Pamela
‘How do I love thee? Let me count the ways. I love thee to the depth and breadth and height. My soul can reach, when feeling out of sight. For the ends of being and ideal grace. I love thee to the level of every day’s. Most quiet need, by sun and candle-light. I love thee freely, as men strive for right. I love thee purely, as they turn from praise. I love thee with the passion put to use In my old griefs, and with my childhood’s faith. I love thee with a love I seemed to lose. With my lost saints. I love thee with the breath, Smiles, tears, of all my life; and, if God choose, I shall but love thee better after death.’ - said robot David
Pamela laughed, and covered her mouth.
‘Let’s get that coffee, David’ - said Pamela
Pamela led robot David by the arm into the Starbucks on the corner.
‘You sit down David and I will get you a coffee’ - said Pamela
‘Milk and two sugars’ - said robot David
‘Sure David’ - said Pamela
While Pamela was getting coffee, robot David sat.
‘Are we getting all this?’ - said the colonel
‘Yes sir’ - said the captain
‘This is some pretty crazy shit’ - said the colonel
‘Excuse me’ - said a woman to robot David - ‘Are you David Sterling?’
‘You know, I just love magical creatures. Do you love magical creatures as well?’ - said robot David to the woman
The woman looked at her friend.
‘You know Mr. Sterling, what you have done for this planet is just amazing. You have saved this world’ - said the woman
‘Me and the guys were going to check out some new guns, do you want to come?’ - said robot David
The woman didn’t know what to say.
‘I was just wondering if I could have a selfie with you?’ - said the woman
‘I am going to look for a new job. I need to get some money so that I can buy a microwave and a set of golf clubs’ - said robot David
The woman stared at robot David.
Pamela came back to the table with their coffees.
‘Mr. Sterling isn’t feeling so great today’ - said Pamela to the woman
‘So no selfie?’ - said the woman - ‘I wanted to put it on the Facebook’
‘Not today’ - said Pamela, smiling
‘Here’s your coffee David - milk and two sugars’ - said Pamela
‘Milk and two sugars’ - said robot David
‘David, are you feeling okay? You seem to be acting kinda strange’ - said Pamela - ‘and you are dressed kinda weird!’
Robot David sat for a moment.
‘I FUCKING LOVE JESUS CHRIST MY FUCKING SAVIOR!’ - shouted robot David
Everyone in the Starbucks stared at Pamela and robot David.
‘David, you are scaring me. Do you want me to call someone?’ - said Pamela
Robot David picked up the coffee in front of him, and drank the steaming hot coffee in one gulp.
‘Hey, listen. I had a great time but I am going to head out now. Me and the guys are playing golf tonight’ - said robot David

‘Okay captain - let’s move this along’ - said the colonel
‘Yes sir’ - said the captain, turning a dial and flicking a switch.
Robot David stood and jumped through the plate glass window. Glass smashed over the tables. Robot David started jogging, and continued down 5th Avenue.
‘Was that David Sterling?’ - people were asking Pamela
‘Someone call the cops!’ - someone else was shouting.
Robot David continued jogging down 5th Avenue. Two police cars with their sirens blaring were heading up 5th Avenue towards the Starbucks.
Robot David turned at 42nd Street and continued jogging over to Times Square.
Times Square was packed with tourists.
Robot David slowed his jog and started walking with the strange gate saying ‘hello buddy!’ to everyone.
‘Well this is a new level of crazy!’ - said the colonel
‘Yes it is sir’ - said the captain
A guy was dressed up as Elmo, and was posing for photos with the tourists.
Robot David walked up to the guy dressed as Elmo.
‘Hey, that is a beautiful dog!’ - said robot David
‘You want a picture buddy?’ - said the man dressed as Elmo
‘You know, I just love magical creatures. Do you love magical creatures as well?’ - said robot David to the man dressed as Elmo.
‘Buddy, if you want a photo put a dollar in the hat and get your photo’ - said the man dressed as Elmo
‘I FUCKING LOVE JESUS CHRIST MY FUCKING SAVIOR!’ - shouted robot David
‘Hey you fucking crack head, why don’t you just clear off. I am trying to earn a fucking living here!’ - said the man dressed as Elmo
‘Hey, me and the guys are playing golf tonight. Do you want to hang out?’ - said robot David.
‘Okay you crazy bastard!’ - the man dressed as Elmo pushed robot David.
‘Okay - here’s the violence that the major warned us about’ - said the colonel - ‘Buckle-up and go combat mode’
‘Yes sir’ - said the captain, turning a dial and flicking a switch.
Robot David’s right arm shot out and struck the man dressed as Elmo in the throat.
The man dressed as Elmo collapsed.
‘Hey listen. It’s been great hanging out but I am going to go now’ - said robot David.
People were crowding around the collapsed man dressed as Elmo. They removed the costume head.
‘He’s dead!’ - said a woman
Robot David walked off, saying ‘hello buddy!’ to everyone.
‘Stop that guy!’ - someone shouted.
“Okay, clear the area’ - said the colonel
‘Yes sir’ - said the captain
Robot David sped up until he was sprinting. Robot David could run faster than a human.
Robot David continued to run along 42nd Street, and then slowed down to a walk - saying ‘hello buddy!’ to everyone he passed.
‘Hey sweetie’ - said a woman standing outside a strip club.
‘Hey, me and the guys were just going car shopping’ - said robot David, stopping outside the strip club.
‘We got 2 for 1 cocktails baby, and nude in the VIP rooms’ - said the woman
‘Let’s hang out sometime’ - said robot David
‘You wanna come in baby?’ - said the woman
‘Another female of the species attempting to mate’ - said the colonel
‘Yes sir’ - said the captain, adjusting dial
Robot David pushed past the woman and entered the strip club.
‘Hey buddy’ - said a man in a booth by the door
Robot David turned and walked to the booth.
‘I FUCKING LOVE JESUS CHRIST MY FUCKING SAVIOR!’ - shouted robot David
‘$10 cover’ - said the man in the booth
‘You know, I just love magical creatures. Do you love magical creatures as well?’ - said robot David to the man in the booth.
‘Hey buddy, its $10 or take a hike’ - said the man
‘Hey, we should hang out sometime’ - said robot David
‘Stacy, get Rocco’ - said the man in the booth
‘Rocco!’ - shouted the Stacy
A muscular man wearing a vest came out of the club.
‘What the problem Frank?’ - said Rocco
‘Get this crazy piece of shit out of here’ - said the man in the booth
‘Time for you to go’ - said Rocco
‘You know, I just love magical creatures. Do you love magical creatures as well?’ - said robot David to Rocco.
‘If you don’t go now, I will put a lump on your head so big - you will look like a fucking magical creature. A fucking unicorn!’ - said Rocco
‘Hey, me and the guys are playing golf later. You want to hang out?’ - said robot David
Rocco pushed robot David, and robot David struck Rocco in the throat.
‘Savages. So violent!’ - said the colonel
Rocco collapsed.
Stacy screamed.
‘You fucking crazy bastard’ - shouted Frank in the booth, pulling out a shotgun.
‘Hey, I love your gun. Did you buy it with money?’ - said robot David
‘Okay - let’s move this along’ - said the colonel
The captain turned some dials and robot David left the strip club. Frank shot at robot David as he was leaving.
David started running again.
Robot David ran back to Broadway and sprinted towards Union Square.
Robot David arrived in Union Square, and there was a large flower market going on.
Robot David slowed to his strange walk, and started saying ‘hello buddy’ to everyone he passed. Robot David wandered between the flower stalls and then stopped at one.
‘Looking for anything special?’ - said a woman
‘You know, I just love magical creatures. Do you love magical creatures as well?’ - said robot David to the woman.
‘Hey, I know you’ - said the woman.
‘Hey, me and the guys were going car shopping. You want to hang out?’ - said robot David
‘You are David Sterling, the inventor’ - said the woman
‘Hey, the cops are looking for him’ - said another woman - ‘I just read it on NBC’
‘My brother is having a barbecue, do you wanna come?’ - said robot David
Two police officers were walking into the flower market.
‘That’s him there’ - said a man to the police
‘Hey, are you David Sterling?’ - said one of the police officers
‘You know, I just love magical creatures. Do you love magical creatures as well?’ - said robot David to the policeman.
‘Okay Mr. Sterling - we are going to need you to put your hands above your head, and to turn around’ - said the other policeman.
The police men both drew their guns.
‘Hey, I love your gun. Did you buy that with money?’ - said robot David
‘Put your hands on your head Mr. Sterling’ - said the policeman
‘Okay, it is has been great hanging out but I think I am going to head out now’ - said robot David
‘Hands on your head Mr. Sterling’ - said the policeman.
‘Okay - let’s move this along captain’ - said the colonel
Robot David started running out of the park. The two policemen ran after him.
‘Stop or we will fire Mr. Sterling’ - shouted the policeman
Robot David accelerated to a sprint, and headed south on Broadway.
‘Dispatch, this is patrol 49. We are in pursuit on foot of the suspect - David Sterling. Suspect is running south on Broadway’ - said the policeman.
‘Copy that patrol 49’ - said the voice in the radio - ‘Sending backup’
‘Man that fucker is fast’ - said the other policeman
Robot David had left the police far behind.
‘How do you think the mission is going captain?’ - said the colonel
‘Very good sir’ - said the captain
Robot David continued to run down Broadway, and a police car pulled alongside him.
‘Jesus - how fast is he running?’ - said the policeman in the passenger seat.
‘Dude is running 25 mph. World’s cleverest man and the world's fastest man!’ - said the policeman driving.
‘Hey - stop!’ - shouted the policeman in the passenger seat.
Robot David slowed down and stopped.
The two policemen stepped out of the car.
‘Hands on your head Mr. Sterling’ - said the policeman
Both the policemen had their guns drawn.
‘Hey, I like your gun. Did you buy it with money?’ - said robot David
‘Hands on your mother-fucking head Sterling’ - shouted the policeman.
‘Hey, me and the guys are playing golf later. Do you want to hang out?’ - said robot David
‘Last chance Mr. Sterling - hands on your head or you get a free ambulance ride’ - said the policeman.
‘You know, I just love magical creatures. Do you love magical creatures as well?’ - said robot David to the policeman.
The policeman shot robot David in the thigh.
‘Incoming fire captain - battle stations!’ - shouted the colonel
‘Yes sir’ - said the captain, lifting a cover and pressing a red button.
Robot David leapt at the policeman who had shot his leg, and grabbed him by the head. Robot David jerked to the side, and ripped the policeman’s head from his shoulder. The other policeman shot robot David, and robot David leapt at the second policeman, punching him in the throat. The policeman collapsed.
Robot David picked up the policeman’s gun. Another police car pulled up, and the two policemen jumped in front of the car.
‘Drop the gun’ - shouted the police.
Robot David fired at the police, killing them both. More police arrived, and they began shooting at robot David.
‘Okay, time to move on’ - said the colonel
‘Yes sir’ - said the captain
Robot David sprinted away from the police cars. A helicopter was now flying above.
‘Breaking and wild news coming out of New York City’ - said the TV news presenter - ‘A massive manhunt is underway for the famous scientist and inventor David Sterling. Sterling has been described as the world’s cleverest man, but is wanted in connection with the deaths of two people in midtown Manhattan, and we are hearing reports of four policemen injured in Tribeca that are linked to Sterling. We are now going over to Pamela Stinton from NBC news. Pam, can you hear us?’
‘Yes Barbara’ - said Pamela
‘So we understand that you were with David Sterling earlier in the day?’ - said the news presenter
‘That’s right Barbara’ - said Pamela
‘And how was David Sterling when you were with him Pam?’ - said the news presenter
‘David was acting very strange, he as saying all sorts of crazy things’ - said Pamela - ‘We were having coffee, and he drank his coffee and then just jumped through the window of the Starbucks and then ran off down 5th Avenue’
‘Sorry Pam, I am going to have to cut you off. We have live footage coming through from City Hall Park’
The camera cut and showed video of robot David attacking dozens of police officers. The police were shooting at robot David, and he was jumping and leaping around and punching and kicking the police.
‘These are terrible scenes from City Hall Park. Scientist David Sterling appears to be in a running battle with the police. He seems to be attacking them, and they are shooting at him but he just seems to be unstoppable’
The footage showed robot David ripping off another policeman’s head, and then the footage cut.
‘We apologize to our viewers for these disturbing scenes. Our thoughts and prayers are with the brave police of New York City’ - said the TV news presenter.
‘Okay, let’s move along’ - said the colonel - ‘The major was right. The animals definitely love their violence and guns!’
‘Yes sir’ - said the captain
Robot David sprinted out of the park and continued running down towards Wall Street.
The rest of the 24 hours the royal commandos spent in New York City was spent in running battles with the police. The city was put into a lockdown, as dozens of policemen lay dead up and down the city.
Robot David walked back through central park heading towards where the time machine was hidden.
‘Hey buddy!’ - said robot David to a wino walking through the park.
The royal commandos found the time machine, and set the coordinates for 67 million year ago.
‘Well my lads’ - said the colonel - ‘I think we can consider that mission a success!’
‘Yes sir ‘ said the captain
‘HUZZAH!’ - shouted the other commandos.
The time machine fired up and then disappeared.
The time machine appeared back in the hangar onboard the aliens giant ship, 1 second after it left.
The royal commandos made more trips to the future. London, Cape Town, Paris, Shanghai, Los Angeles, Berlin, Rio De Janeiro, Lagos, Toronto, Mumbai, Cairo, and dozens of other cities.
The commandos started bringing back human artifacts.

Legend of the Seven
Humans were cast out of Eden for committing the original sin. Now Seven will answer, should Humanity live forever? But first, join Team Six in their rescue mission turned daring prison break from death. Author's Corner: Welcome to the Legend of the Seven series #LOTSseries, my Guardians.This is my first novel turned webnovel. I'm returning to this fictional world after a 6-year hiatus with a lot of personal growth and insight. Insights gained from being a lifetime reader.I was the kid who read Harry Potter and Percy Jackson. I was the new adult who read I Shall Seal the Heavens and Ark. I've lost count of how many fictional worlds I've visited and lived through for I grew up on western novels but discovered eastern novels in my college years. This is my attempt to marry those two literary styles.It's my hope that this journey becomes more than just a book. If you're reading this simply expecting an ego power trip then turn back. There'll be action but with a lot of metaphysics and discussion on life with its accompanying issues. I strive to ground and make this webnovel relatable with verisimilitude. This webnovel is about choice. Freewill and its consequences. I give my characters autonomy to do and be themselves which sometimes leads to me rewriting and replotting because of pleasant surprises from my characters. Even the character who dies within the chapter they are introduced can have a massive impact with several ripples. So, there'll be stories on love and loss, hope and despair, but most importantly, it'll be a story. Release schedule: M, W, F - I aim for afternoon (1pm to 6pm) MST. I'm working on a project, codenamed "Guides' Sanctum", to make LOTSseries even more alive with special voice-overs, extra stories, behind the scene stuff, and so much more. But it can only come online when certain benchmarks are reached. The listed goals will help us get there. Goals:50 readers will unlock 4 chapters a week - Extra release on Thursday100 readers will unlock 5 chapters a week - Extra release on Tuesday250 readers will unlock 6 chapters a week - Extra release on Saturday500 readers and Project Guides' Sanctum comes online!Links:Lotsseries.blogspot.comSocial:@tonyswag0 - twitter@lotsseries - FacebookI'm thrilled at what is happening and what is still to come. Never be afraid to drop a comment. My DM is open. I'll work to keep this work free to access but I ask you to enjoy it from official sources so that you can be part of the discussion. There's magic in reading together to form a shared experience.Again, welcome aboard, my Guardians.
8 144(First Draft Old Version) Ruins Of Isulia ~ Book 1 : Awakening of the Emarine
My updated version has been released but this version is still getting views so I will leave it up for now. This is the old (First draft) version. Go check out my latest version. **************** Creatures once believed to be legend have invaded the kingdom of Vulkira. King Erik must overcome this crushing responsibility or let it consume his people. A haunting past eats away at the Queen of Xer. Cara is hellbent on protecting the ones she loves and the future of her kingdom. Balancing the greater good, she fights to keep her head above the waves of guilt. In a remote town, Henry, an energetic bookworm is thrust into the world as chaos engulfs his once seemingly peaceful world. His lord has a task for him, one in which will change his life forever. Wars brew, betrayal is at each corner, shadows step into the light, a supernatural force awaits the time to strike. Awakening an ancient civilization from their past may be their only hope now. A spiraling doom awaits the world of Isulia. **************** I put the gore and traumatizing warnings not because my book is overly gory. However, there are a few moments that may be traumatizing to some people. As for the gore, it shows up fairly often but not extensively. I've always loved violence in movies and books, (The Boys, Banshee, Kingdom of heaven, Vikings, etc.) I am descriptive of the scenes with gore. So be warned :) I have multiple MC and as a nooby writer, I've had a harder time writing from a female POV. Just a heads up. Don't kill me if I make the woman in my book seem weird. If you'd like to consider supporting my work, there is a link to my Patreon.
