《A marvel rise》Chapter 24
Advertisement
Over lunch Peggy explain the mission, at the agency she was now working the SSR. She had manage to decode a message that link Howard, a secret group called Leviathan and children. Her boss wanted someone that knew the territory in Russia, she had already contacted the howling commandos they had agreed to meet them their. She was hoping to rope in one more ex soldier to this mission.
"James should be going, so why are you in need of my help? Cause from what you've explain, you have a part of the howling and some of your guys from the SSR are going as well. So what is my role in all this Pegs?" Alex said as he push away his empty plate.
"I think hydra might be involve. And theirs a secondary location that I need you to hit, while I go with the rest." Peggy said as she lowered her voice.
"Wait, what? What do you mean second locations? And why is it that I'm going in alone. Tell me Pegs, what really going on here." Alex said any cheer he had over the deliciouse fish an chip left him.
Peggy sigh. "Howard is in trouble, someone is framing him. I was helping him finding out who but when I last spoke to him, we got into a nasty fight. So I left, then two days ago I come in to work, only to learn that the SSR have captured a coded message. Its about Leviathan, Howard and a weapon deal, that somehow involves an orphanage, near where the deal is about to be struck. The problem is, that my boss is going to ignore the orphanage and focus on the deal. So I need you to go in my place at the orphanage, and see what it has to do with a child package they mention." Peggy said she had started by looking down, only to slowly raise her head as she poured out her heart to him.
"And why alone, you and I both know what you're capable of on your own. Who was the one who volunteer to get capture as bait, without weapons, and by the time the rest of the team enter, everyone inside was either dead or knock out cold. We found you in their kitchen making a sandwich, complaining that the food they served you was crap, so you decided to make your own food. You broke out of prison, killed almost everyone, without weapons or back up." Peggy said as she stared at him, with a look that challenge him to deny.

This was also another reason everyone else of the howling called him crazy, the time were he done something for food or thing he consider important for culture was numerous. But they all had one common factor, when Alex went berserk, his allies had nothing to be worried about they where safe. Not so much if you happen to be his ennemy, if you where it was wise to run like never before.
"Well shit." Alex said
"Languages!" Peggy said in a teacher like not approving tone.
"Sorry, fine you've convince me, il go and see what I can dig up. If hydra is involved, I get rid of them, and if something shady is going on with the little Olivers, Il give them some porridges." Alex said as gave her a grin.
"Thank you." Peggy said as she smiled. Knowing that if Alex went then whatever happen it would be resolve.
Somewhere over Russia.
"You know it been a while since ive done this." Alex said to the pilot as he shouted over the noise.
"Are you sure you just want me to fly over, and leave you all alone out their?" The pilot said for the tenth time.
"Frank, life is like a mystery box, sometimes you just got to rip the lid off, and yell at the hidden puppet inside." Alex said in his best sage voice.
"My name is Roger, not Frank, Chis, Paul, Bob, laurence or any other names you've called me during this flyte. Isn't my name Im called Roger." Roger? the pilot said in exasperation.
"Sure, sure, your name is your name. But I kind of think you look more like a Bruce." Alex said with a grin. Alex very well knew what the pilots name was..... He just wanted to pist him off a bit, ever since he told him he was parachuting alone over Russia, he'd ask one to many times if he was serious. Hence the name calling.
"Whatever where here." Bruce? The pilot said
"Ok see you on the other side Jane." Alex said he jump out of the plane. As he jump he swore he hear, the word "asshole" being shouted from somewhere, must be his imagination.

As Alex descended, he went throught what found out before coming here. The location he was going to investigate was a real orphanage, foreshadowing much, officially it was own buy a small shell company who provided weapons. So it was a shadow site no questions, probable governmentally funded to hide whatever it is they where hidding. So this mission was going to go south as soon as he was spotted, the question was does he step in and help if he finds any living victims, or does only smash and grab any info. He would figure it out once he eliminated all hostiles forces.
He landed without any problem, he pack up his chute, unhook the front bag he had on him, taking out his equipment for this mission. For this mission he brought a map of the area, a compass, a flash light, a sniper rifles scope, M1911 pistol with a silencer with extra amos, a ka-bar knife, a nifty little device that coiled a steals wire in it which it could also be use as a garrote, a nine inch nail that had a long flat rectangle head for better support in one palm, six trowing knives, two flash bangs, two smoke grenades, goggles of his own designs to see in the dark, a mask that filter smoke and water and a rope with a grabbling hook.
Of Course he was also wearing the lates body armor as well, he was still a normal human, he still hasn't gone throught the first phase yet. He was only missing a few more things, before his first step into a life full of new possibilities, he should have everything he needed by time he got back.
Thanks to his night goggles, he could approach the orphanage without any problem. From where he was to their it was about five miles from what he could gather from his map. It was still pretty late so if he hustle he could make it before sunrise. Alex treck in the forest making good time, watching his step as he made his way to the orphanage.
It was still dark, but soon the sun would rise. Alex was observing the place. "Either the people here really like fortes, or all the orphans are super important to this country." Alex said as he was looking at the fortify building before him.
It was surounded by a two meter stone wall with only one gate to come in or out, their was about four building inside. One look like it was somekind of storage, another look like a garage, another look like some school and the last looked to be a forte build to resist a siege. Add the guard tower that were at all four corner, the patrol also going around. And well this started to look less and less like an orphanage an more like some shady millitary operation base.
"Possibles training facility for some sort of super spy or soldier, and if kids are involve, then its more then likely that their being brainwash. Great not only do I need to watch out for the guards and teachers, but the kids might stab me in the back." Alex said in frustration
"Well Im going to get some rest, observe them during the day and I'll sneak kill them tonight, if nothing fuck up happens during the day." Alex said as found a nice hidding spot to grab some sleep.

The Worldforge: Warlock Rising
Abandoned as an orphan, Mar was tested for magic by the Mages of Orelm and was found to possess immense magical potential, but when he grew old enough to start his training he found he was unable to cast so much as a single spell! Embarrassed by their mistake, the mages threw him in the library where he read books and tutored the mage students for a bit of money. All the while, he can’t help but envy the the students who are living the life he had so eagerly awaited. But when an object of great and malevolent power promises to make good on all the promises the mages broke to him Mar is thrust into the world of magic. Mar will find that fate had something more than a life confined to the library planned for him after all. Authors Notes: I consider this to be a comming-of-age Sword and Sorcery story based mostly on the style of classic western fantasies. So if that's your thing then I encourage you to take a peek. Something I want to mention though is that the main character starts of pretty wimpy, and that might not be your thing. That being said, if you stick with him he's got a long way to grow. Also, while this version of the story is meant to be fully readable, more dicerning readers may want to wait until I move out of rough draft phase. There may be some inconsistancies with character and plot while I am still in the rough draft phase. I'm sorry for this, but this is my first web novel and from what I've read the best way to get a good novel out is to write write write, and then edit ruthlessly after you're finished with the book, so that's the plan I'm going to follow. Again, this is a rough draft. Everything you are reading is subject to change, including the name, title, and cover photo. This may no longer be the case once I've decided I know where this fiction is going and I have a reasonable understanding of the characters and their behavior. You're reading what comes off my keyboard as it's made, with very limited editing. There will be mistakes in the text. I do a quick spell check to take out the worst of the errors, but there will be some I miss. You can point them out in the comments if they are particularly confusing or glaring and I will try to fix them, however I am not overly concerned about minor errors as this is not the final draft by any means.

Founding of Humanity - Animalist
This is the dawn of the age of mankind. It is time to push back the wilderness and establish the kingdoms and empires that will govern this land. Players, the elect of the gods, are now coming to help humanity fight back. The dark ages are ended, and now is the time to lay the foundation! Now is the time to establish civilization! This is the Founding of Humanity! I am building this world for my own amusement, releases are not on any kind of schedule. I got to thinking "what if a beast tamer was changed by what they tamed" and this game mechanic sprung to mind. I do not know where this story is going. The main character is becoming a skill hoarder, as that is an advantage of the class design. The game system in this story is insipred by Log Horizon and Sword Art Online, where you get a skill and that is the skill, instead of getting a skill and then leveling it through tiers and rankings.
