《Wolf of the Wasteland》Wolf of the Wasteland - 7 - Mechanized
Advertisement
Wolf stood at the top of the sand dune overlooking the dilapidated factory.
She could just barely see the travelers from her sandy knoll.
One of them began to light a bonfire before the sun set while the other three scavenged the dead bodies of the Flesh-eaters for weapons, loot and wearable clothes.
Wolf had never sat with company beside a fire before.
She watched from a far curiously, she knew the risks of traveling with groups.
Wolf looked over at her sword and sheath decoy and placed her sweaty palm against the hilt of the sword.
She grasped the hilt firmly and pulled back.
The sword drew from out of the sand, revealing a thin, single-edged blade of iron.
She tied the metal scabbard to her belt at her waist and secured her sword in it.
Kneeling down on the mound of sand, Wolf licked her chapped lips and whistled a tune.
The raven soaring above descended towards her, resting on her extended arm. It cawed, stretching its wings.
As the tune finished, the sand began shifting beneath her. It poured like water rushing down hill around her feet.
A large metal floor emerged from under the shifting sands, and continued to rise like a sub-marine in a sea of sand.
An enormous mechanical walker lifted from out of the sand, revealing a walking tank the size of a small two-story building with legs.
The shifting sand below her feet poured off of the giant contraption, lifting her up on top of the enormous bi-pedal machine.
The machine's outer metal shell was round, and crab-like in appearance, and had a large hatch built in on the roof.
The tank stood up out of the sand with both arched legs extended.
Wolf stood on top, high above the desert below. The winds of the wasteland swept her ashen blonde hair back and tickled her sweaty skin. She could see far down the horizon from up high.

Two long-reaching mechanical arms stretched out from the side of the machine, dusting the remaining sand off the outer shell. Wolf whistled, commanding her tank to move forward. The machine stepped forward one foot at a time until it reached a steady pace following the tread marks away from the the travelers and old factory.
Wolf looked at the group one last time. The four of them sat together at the bright bonfire sharing water and meat.
Wolf turned her eyes to the tread marks down in the sand and then glanced back at the bonfire once more before exiting over the horizon in pursuit of her prey, the last remaining Flesh-eater.
"Let the hunt begin."

8 170The Rebirth of a Emperor
An Emperor reaches the end of his days, exiled and living in misery in a faraway land together with his entire dynasty and some friends from his time of rule. He regrets never being able to return to his beloved country and wonders if he made the right choice by leaving his throne to avoid a massive conflict but tries to comfort himself knowing many lives were spared. As he dies however, visions of a strange future appear as if to answer his doubt, making him shed tears of remorse, for his country's fate is not a good one after him, making his end truly a miserable one. However unexpectedly, his eyes open again to a place never seen before to a people he had no recollection of, in the embrace of a woman he at first has no idea of who it was. This strange, absurd situation quickly makes him realise what just happened, he does not know how he came to grasp the situation, but something made him understand this: This isnt his world and there is no turning back, no way to see his homeland again nor his family. In this horrible realisation, he cried, much like the infant he was now, marking his rebirth to this new world, which he saw as a punishment from God for his actions. ----------- Note from author: this story is the first i ever published, so please, to anyone who takes an interest in it, have a bit of patience with me and if you can, give me a bit of good old criticism. For now i will publish small chapters for i am not very confident in this, but as i write more and gain some experience i will release longer and better ones. Also English isn't my mother language so any advice or correction is welcomed.
