********************************************
3 weeks have passed since that day, lot of things have happened. Lots of things have changed in my life. Right now I’m moving through a deep forest east of Zuma, known as Akan Forrest. Miss Aby & her team took me under their wing, I was to follow them to their destination & then they will see what to do next. Frankly I was a little surprised when they told me to join them or rather Javel picked me up & ordered me to do so. Let me tell you, up-close he’s very scary...so I joined their expedition. Ever since that day Miss Aby would nag me & hit me on my head for no reason what so ever. I think that being pretty gives her some kind of right to hit me...*smack*...what??
Aby: “Come with me, boy.”
Me: “Why? Where?” *smack*
Aby: “Don’t ask unnecessary questions & quietly follow me.”
Me (rubbing my left hand on my head): “Yes Miss Aby...”
Lot of things happened after Elder died. I was bombarded with questions like “What were you thinking?” “From where did you get that weapon?” “How did you move so fast?” “What are you?” “What Rank are you?”....I mean so many questions...my head was spinning.
Finally getting cleaned from all that blood, I felt quite nice or peace whichever sounds good. I saw my reflection on the mirror. I was at a loss...I look completely different from any Zumas I have seen or met. I have a red slit pupil on white eyes, two short horns with black tip, light red body complexion with black streaks on my shoulder. I was also close to 5’8-9 ft tall. What is this appearance? Only one way to find out “Status”.

After cleaning up, I went to the Council hall to listen to the will Elder left me...of course my new guardians came with me as well...they said that they were just going to talk with Councilwoman Je’Lec about my situation but I know better...they want to know what how much fortune did Elder left me with... *smack* ahhh...
Me: “What?”
Aby: “You were thinking something bad about us...weren’t you??” small grin forming in the corner of her slender lips.
Me: “No...No...Absolutely not...how could I!?”I smiled innocently at her.
Aby: “Remember Boy...you are still inexperienced...everything you think or do will be known to us instantly...be careful...this forest is pretty dense...” her grin got mixed with her sharp eyes turning into one hell of a scary face.
Me: “Yes...I understand...Miss Aby.” looking down towards the earth.
Aby: “Now hurry up; we don’t have a lot of time.”
Upon reaching the Council hall, I met the Councilwoman, talked to her for a little bit. She was quiet shocked to see me...well everyone was so no big deal. Then handed me a paper & told me to sign it. It was Elder’s will. After reading & signing it she handed me a small triangular crystal, black in colour. She told me to drop some blood on a part of the crystal. I did what she told me, a screen came appeared.
ENTER THE DOCUMENT CODE:

I entered the code written in the will.

The Undead Revolution
This was my first attempt at writing a story, in hiatus indefinitely. This story follows Silvy, half-elf, a rare race despised by both humans and elves. Having never met her father, the first years of her life were spent together with her mother, who had to leave her native village because of the blasphemy she had committed by giving birth to Silvy. At the age of eight, Silvy became an orphan and was left to fend for herself. Her mother had died of illness, Silvy’s life turning upside down: the child went from living in a modest but cozy home with poor but daily meals to live outside the walls in the slums, where crime was commonplace and food was scarce. Luck had yet to abandon her completely though, because a group of orphans like Silvy decided to help, integrating her into their group and teaching the tricks of the trade; that is, stealing and swindling. But fate had not yet finished playing with her. Kidnapped and frightened, her life will turn upside down again when she awakens as undead, but still able to think clearly.

But on the very first mission with my new partner (who I’ve had a crush on since we were kids. Don’t ask.) things get complicated. What should be a simple case quickly reveals layers of conspiracy I could never have imagined. Everything I thought was solid truth begins unraveling beneath a web of lies and secrets.

A Tyrant: Unshackled
A man once lived in a modern world, surrounded by the tragedy of humans, he was despaired. He did his best to ignore it. Did his best to hide in the safety of his own circumstances. But eventually the tragedy reached him. And when it did... it left a broken man, who was tired of the world and it's circumstances. He took things into his own hands. He would change the world. But this story isn't about that. For after all was done, the man dying peacefully on his own terms, he would have a new life ahead of him. Now unbound by attatchments and responsibility, in a completely new world for him to explore, he would make sure his new life didn't end up like the last one. This fiction won't be updated regularly due to my own circumstances and while I will try to update it often, I won't always be able to. That being said I hope you enjoy this little work of mine. I'm not an experienced, and don't consider myself a good author in any way. But hopefully some people will enjoy this fiction like I do writing it, regardless of that.
