《Caves of Gods》10: The Importance of The Axe
Advertisement
Journal,
We rode for many hours. After, we found ourselves on an island. I looked and then saw Abaddon gallop. I followed him as much as I could. I looked behind me and saw Fiona and Toby running. Fiona seemed to run fast as me. I started running faster. Fiona saw me run faster and started running faster. Then, Toby started to run faster. We ran for a few minutes then noticed we had lost Abaddon. We ran around to find him. Fiona eventually found him. Abaddon was standing in front of a cave.
"What's wrong?" I asked.
"Nothing. Let's go in." he said. He walked in. We followed him. We walked for an hour. Abaddon stopped us.
"Be silent don't talk just stay silent." he said.
"Why?" I asked.
"Because," he replied.
"Tell us why." I pushed him.
"Because, now shut up!" he screamed.
"No, tell us why." I pushed harder.
"Shut up," he screamed. He quickly turned into a human. He grabbed my shirt. I pushed him away.
"Whatever," I said, "Let's just go and I promise to stay quiet. Do you guys promise to be quiet to." I looked at Fiona and Toby.
"Fine," Fiona said. "Fine," Toby said. I looked at them a bit angry. I wanted them to push Abaddon like I did. I understand though, I mean who'd want to push Abaddon harder especially after that. Honestly in general, Abaddon is a pretty unapproachable. We walked for another few minutes. Then we saw, Yolikarey. Yolikarey was a beautiful white horse with a blue mane and violet eyes.
"Hello, Yolikarey," Abaddon greeted."
"Hello Abaddon," she said. They walked closer to each other then they started attacking each other. They violently tried to bite each other. I ran to stop them. Abaddon pushed me to the side. Fiona and Toby then tried to push them away from each other. Both of them were pushed to the ground. Then, Cyna and Thessaly pushed them away. Abaddon attacked Cyna and hit toward the ground.

"You dare attack our daughter!" Yolikarey screamed. She pushed him back to the ground. I ran to the side. Fiona and Toby were still stuck in the middle. Yolikarey started brutally attacking Abaddon. Thessaly tried pushing his mom away from Abaddon. Cyna attacked Thessaly to let her mom attack Abaddon. Toby and Fiona tried escaping. Toby was hit in the face from Cyna. Fiona tried to get him to help him stand up. Toby saw that Cyna was going to try attack Thessaly but could miss so he hugged Fiona. Cyna did miss and hit Toby's spine. It made Toby hit the floor and stopped standing. Thessaly saw that Cyna hit Toby so, he ran toward Cyna trying to avoid Fiona and Toby.
He managed to avoid Fiona and Toby but, Abaddon and Yolikarey were fighting. Yolikarey slammed against Toby and her teeth grabbed a part of Toby's body. The part of Toby's body that Yolikarey's teeth grabbed was his belly. Toby and Yolikarey both scream in angony. Yolikarey screamed in pain because surprisingly, Toby's body was strong enough to make Yolikarey's tooth come off. You could see an organ and a bone from Toby's body. Yolikarey ran to Abaddon and made Fiona run out of the way. Fiona went over to me and grabbed my bag. She got my axe and ran away. I chased her. I catched up to her and jumped on her. Fiona tried to run away but hit me in the eye.
"What the hell!" I yelled. I grabbed my eye and got off her.
Fiona stood up and I looked at me worried. "I'm so sorry," Fiona said and walked over to me.
"Fiona what were you thinking you can't kill. I'm so sorry you can't." I told her.
"I'm so sorry." Fiona said and ran away. I grabbed my axe and ran away to further in to the cave. I stumbled through out the way. I found my way to the end of the cave. I've read a lot of books but, not many about caves so, I don't know if caves have ends. I walked a little of by about three feet. I threw my axe to the cave since I was mad about the recent outcomes. It got near the cave's endings and something lit up. I looked at it and the light came from a hole on the left half that was axe shaped. My axe went into the hole. Then the whole cave trembled. The ending opened. It opened to a platform onto the stairs. I heard gallops coming to me. All they gods were running towards me.

"Jeffrey, you did it!" Abaddon screamed.
"I did what?" I asked.
"You opened the- woah what happened to your eye?" he asked.
"Fiona happened." I responded.
"We'll fix your eye later."
"I'll fix it." Thessaly said, "Close your eyes."
I closed my eyes and felt my eye socket open.
"Duh, it's so ugly." Cyna said.
"Shut up," Thessaly told her. I felt something cold in my eye socket.
"Open your eyes," Thessaly told me. I opened my eyes. I stared onto the world in one eye normal, in the other eye the blue was in a shade of blue. I got adjusted to my new view in a matter of a seconds.
"Anyways, you opened the Cave Palace." Abaddon said.
"The what?" I asked.
"The Cave Palace, our home." he responded, "What was your way to open it?"
"My axe. I threw it and it attached itself to the door." I responded.
"Your axe was what I was looking for where did you get?" he asked.
"It was in my family for a long time." I spoke.
"Your family stole it. It was our only key to our palace. Father punish him." Cyna commanded.
"Jeffrey, were from who did your father get your axe from?" Abaddon asked.
"My grandfather who got from my great grandfather who got from like a bunch of great grandfathers before him." I responded.
"The person who got you the axe is probably already dead." Abaddon said, "I can't punish the proper human. Jeffrey go downstairs, then go right for two hundred dekameters, and then go right to the fourth door. After then, wait for me to get to the room."
"Okay," I said scared. I did exactly as he did. I heard many gallops after I got downstairs. I got to the room which was a huge room with many books. There was a suit on the bed and shoes. The room was connected to the bathroom which I used to freshen up. Right now, I'm waiting for Abaddon to show up. I've just finished brushing my hair. Right now, as afraid as Abaddon as I was on our first meeting.

8 71Nameless Hypocrite
"Bastard, surrender yourself!" "You think you can escape our encirclement?!" "An omnicidal fiend like you can only atone in death!" Despite his precarious situation, a young man ignored the union's provocations. His violet robe was in tatters, showing the incredible number of attacks he received, yet there was no sign of injury. Noticing the light smile tugging at his lips, the pursuing heroes warily watched him, cautious of a final attack. It was only by working together that they could corner a monster like him. An arrow pierced the air, beelining towards the young man. A malicious gleam revealed itself in his eyes; he unsheathed his sword, a long, curved blade, and deflected the projectile, spiking it into the ground. The archer's eyes widened before being split in two. He died suddenly and indignantly. The group backed away; their former confidence diminished greatly by the invisible counter. It was then that the young man sighed, his voice full of lament and self-pity. "Being a saint truly is difficult, even the world cannot understand my righteous actions." The expressions of the surrounding heroes turned ugly. Such blatant hypocrisy! Yes, the protagonist is a villain. We don't do morals here. New chaps when I write them
8 177Path of Defiance: Isekai Cultivation
CURRENTLY ON HIATUS High-school senior Rowan doesn’t have a bright future ahead of him. He has no plans, his grades are average and he isn’t exceptional at sports. When faced with the choice to fade into obscurity as a mindless drone in corporate hell or try his luck in a world where mere mortals can battle gods, his choice is clear. Little did he expect that he’d be thrown into an alternate world very much like his old one where everyone he knows is present, but their roles and personalities twisted to fit the cruel world they now reside in. The worst part is, his bully can and will kill him for the slightest offense and Rowan happens to have picked a fight with him. The story is set in a Xuanhuan-based world (basically Xianxia, but extended to include Western concepts). This story is also posted on Neovel. Cover Art from Asviloka's Free Cover thread.

8 166After the End: Serenity
We all want to believe we are heroes of our own story - unless we want to be the villain, of course. At the end of everything, the Final Reaper decided he hadn’t been a hero. Driven by a desire to right the wrongs he was subjected to, he killed everyone who wronged him or his people - which turned out to be everyone that wasn’t killed by someone else first. He'd won - but it was a hollow victory. Eventually, Order’s Voice found a way out. If the only existing being would agree to give up most of his power, the Voice could reset the multiverse to an earlier time with a few minor changes. Of course, the Voice couldn't ask it that way. It could only ask if the Final Reaper was willing to start over from when Earth was first brought into Order. It was an easy decision, and yet it wasn’t. Was he willing to go through eons of pain again to not be alone? Yes. In a heartbeat. Not that his heart beat anymore. Now it would. Perhaps he could even be a hero, this time. When he landed in his old body - more or less - on Earth, the Final Reaper once again became Thomas. He was both and neither. He needed a new name for a new life. Serenity. ------------------------------------------ While this is technically a System Apocalypse story, it's a System Apocalypse that is designed to have a large percentage of the population survive and prosper. There are a lot of problems that come with the appearance of the Voice, and it's entirely possible to lose. Earth has some special opportunities, but also special challenges. The first time around, Earth won the first round and lost the second. Serenity has ten years from when the Voice arrives to prevent that from happening. It will be a group effort; Serenity can't win alone - which is difficult for someone who's been alone for as long as he has. Of course, that's only his second priority. ------------------------------------------- Updates Daily A note on the nonhuman lead tag: He isn't human, and hasn't been human for a very, very long time (or maybe not long at all, depending on how you count it). He still thinks of himself as human, either way. The content warnings are mostly to give me room to write; this fiction is not intended to be edgy, but once in a while a character will swear or someone will get seriously injured. The cover image is a Chandra/Hubble composite image of VV 340 / Arp 302 / UGC 9618. While we're not going to space itself any time soon in the story, people from elsewhere are coming to Earth and Serenity will visit other planets. Plus, I like space imagery.
