《Lucky SP》Chapter 6 - First Encounter
Advertisement
"Alright then, let's go ahead and pick up where we left off in your American History books. Please turn to page... " The day passed quickly as the special class for orphan recovery continued on. It ended without much of a hassle. At the end of the day, Lucky walked out of the classroom and the messy haired boy caught up to him. "Hello Lucky" Lucky glanced at him while continuing out the school doors. "Who are you?" "Ah, my name... well I call my self Zero since I don't have a number like most recovered merchandise." Zero smiled self deprecatingly. "Er, alright. Nice to meet you." Lucky continued walking. Both Lucky and Zero continued walked towards the school on campus dorms. It had turned out Zero lived on campus to. Actually, all the members of the special orphan recover class 309 lived on campus. Lucky saw Marian and his buddy walk into a dorm room together talking about watching a movie later at the theater. Lucky said goodbye to Zero and shut his dorm door behind him and jumped on his bed. He stared at the ceiling but suddenly he felt his hair stand on end. Something was wrong. He sat up and cautiously looked around the room. Out of one of the corners, a small egg entity waddled over. "Hunnngrryy" It creepily said. Lucky's eyes focused and he jumped off his bed. He took the bed pillow and held it in front of him. "The hell!" He had goosebumps all along his arms. This thing is so unsettling. It looked like it was cloaked in human skin and it had one eye. It looked like an elongated egg where the middle was a cylinder. "Huuunnnggrrryyy" the top of the creature opened like a lid and the lines and rows of teeth were visible. Lucky immediately turned and ran. The hairs on the back of his neck were standing on end. He swung open the dorm door and ran into the hall at full speed. He breathed heavily and the sounds of the creature crunching on something behind him made him run even faster. A scream sounded from a girls dorm and another door flew open Tonya and 77 flew out and ran into Lucky. They fell over each other. Tonya looked into Lucky's eyes and realized he was also afraid. He must have seen it too. "Did you see it? Do you know something?" she grabbed Lucky's collar before looking at 77. She was watching the inside of the dorm room in a daze. Lucky stood up hurriedly and glanced inside. The girl 22 was lying dead with many holes oozing thick blood the size of about 1 inch in diameter. A crunching sound echoed from inside her body. Lucky's eyes widened. "We need to go." he dragged 77 away. And Tonya recovered almost immediately. "I got her, you go get the boys." Lucky nodded and turned around knocking on Marian's dorm room. "Marian, we need to leave right now. Hurry up." "Fuck hold on" Marian opened the door. The other boy in the Chicago Bear's jersey continued playing with a video game controller. "Oh it's gay boy dad fucker right? What the fuck do you want?" Marian sneered. Lucky gritted his teeth. 'The fuck is your problem.' "We need to leave there is a strange creature..." he stopped midway as his gaze fell onto the small egg creature was slightly bigger now. Marian was curious and followed Lucky's gaze. "FUCK. WHAT IS THAT CREEPY THING?" Marian instantly screamed. The other boy stopped playing and immediately looked over at his scream. He followed their gaze, but did not see anything. "Marian, you think I would fall for a trick like this? I know you're tricks." He turned back to continue playing his video game. Lucky and Marian looked at each other. "Can you see it?" Lucky asked the boy. "See what?" the boy absentmindedly said. "Andy get over here quickly. You need to get away from that fucking creepy thing." Marian annunciated slowly and seriously. At this moment, the entity leaped towards the boy. "Hungrry" it eerily said. ZKkkcchchch The top of its head opened like a lid. It drilled into the boy's body like a worm drilling throughout he ground. The sounds of crunching were heard. The boy's eyes widened in horror and he opened his mouth in a soundless scream before collapsing to the ground. Lucky and Marian both shut the door immediately. "Fuck FUCK FUCK!!!" Marian shouted as he sprinted down the corridor. Zero lazily peaked out of his dorm room door at the sound of Marian's screaming. "What are you screaming about?" He then saw Lucky running along side Marian frantically and his eyes widened. "Lucky what happened? Is there a fire?" Zero asked. Lucky grabbed Zero's shoulder. "We need to leave. Now." He looked him in the eye. Zero glanced at the goosebumps on Lucky's arm and nodded. His gaze became unnaturally sharp almost instantly, completely losing the laziness which was there previously. "Okay." He shut his dorm door and looked back down the hallway from where Lucky and Marian had run from. He saw a small pale skinned cloak covered a round creature drill through Marian's dorm room door. It sounded as if a chainsaw had cut through the wooden door. He immediately turned and ran following Lucky and Marian. "Lucky, what the hell is that thing?" Marian turned to him while sprinting. "You can see it? Fuck thank God. I thought it was only me and this motherfucker." Lucky said "No, I think Tonya could see it too. And maybe 77." ZZZZZZTTTZZzztz The sound the entity bouncing off of the walls and wood shredding sounded. It continued to get closer and closer. "Fuck it's catching up!" The three of them threw open the dorm room door and rushed outside. Tonya and 77 pointed 2 shivs at them while waiting.

Dirge
All things are. We once dreamed of a sky filled with possibilities. Of neverending knowledge. But those were conceited times, filled with quibbling. Now we look up and fear the vastness. We fear that there’s no edge to infinity. Humanity pulled itself together. Not like you’d expect, not like you’d approve of, but the results are spectacular. We call ourselves Utopians now, to make it simple for our kin in the cosmos. We’ve moved out into the Omniverse, to unlimited resources, and to dominance over the weak. Not for gain, but to the ends of permanence and peace. The cessation of their suffering. At the apex, looking down on those confined, those unenlightened, we felt safe. So few stand shoulder to shoulder with us. Fewer yet of them are so united as we. Porter, a godkiller for the Eidolons, is out of the job. Christopher, a Magus in the Guild, has him a new one, but with motives questionable. Kendall, a failing student at the Monastery, has to deal with secrets he never wanted. Anna, her entire life just fell apart, leaving her bereft. And Doran, he awakens. Each of these people, connected as members of the Omniversal Utopian Commonwealth, are helpless to the dark truth closing in. Not even the artificial intelligence, Aku, keeper of all Utopian power, can stop the Ouroboros. It’s not a new dawn. The light is dying. Hold your breath and go gently.

8 131Zeroth Knight re: Dawn
Isekai, fantasy, with the core themes of Identity and Fate. Story contains a, mostly, lesbian cast. Updated twice a day. Evangeline Sayagawa makes the ultimate choice at the cost of the ultimate sacrifice: She decides to leave her world that she fought so hard to return to, and return to Arsea in hopes of saving everyone. Little was she aware of just how bad things had gotten. The world she was returning to was cast into chaos and on the precipice of being destroyed. She awakens in this new kind of Arsea, after having witness the end of a dear friend. The world now belonged to the monstrosities of old, the Beta, and their corrupted human warriors, the Eld. With her fake identity, that which defined her in this world, being stripped from her, she now has to navigate a darkness in which not even the women she loves recognize her. This is book 2 of the Evangeline Sayagawa "Zeroth Knight" story, with book 1 being found here. The first "chapter" posted here is a hyper-condensed version of volume/book 1, in case anyone needs a generalized refresher of events, or for those who wish to start with this book instead as it is faster paced and more action-packed than the first one. Suffice to say, but most of the details from book 1 are lost by doing this; however, enough of the more-important information is present to allow one to understand the general idea of what is going on. This book features a mostly lesbian cast and deals more so with fate and crises of identity more than anything else. However, there is much more action in this one than any of my other stories thus far and brings about the end of Evangeline Sayagawa's story arch... sort of. I have another story up, a short story drama with light yuri and supernatural themes: "Escape The KNIGHT" Share the story if you think it's good. And please rate some stars and leave reviews guys. It will help encourage other people to take a chance with the story and get to know this wonderful journey with us. Also, a friend has made a Discord for the "Zeroth Universe" if anyone wants to join and hang out to talk about the stories, theories, or just general fun chats with us! https://discord.gg/f3Bc4TR Follow me on Twitter @Ozefen0 to stay up to date on my stories and what have you.
