《Bounty Cats》Book One: Chapter 6

After the elevator stopped, the doors opened, revealing an empty gray hallway with doorways and a white shiny marble floor. Rei followed Luna through the hall and stopped toward a metal door.
She turned to Rei and pointed her thumb at the door. "This is where you will get your identification chip. The armory is next door."
"Are you going in with me?" Rei asked.
Luna crossed her arms and leaned her back against the wall. "Don't take long. The office doesn't have a toilet."
Rei glared at Luna before stepping through the door. What is totally up with her?
The office was small with one desk, a couch, and a landscape painting of a mountain over a forest. Kind of boring with plain walls and a carpeted floor without unique textures.
A chipmunk lady sat behind the desk, chewing on an enormous chocolate bar with nuts in it. Pieces of chocolate sprinkled across her blue uniform from her wood chipping mouth. Her body was shaped like an egg, kind of like a round toy figure a kid would find at a dollar store. Chipmunks like to eat a lot when they get hungry too often.
Rei waved to the officer. "Excuse me, I'm here for my identification."
The lady glanced at her, mouth covered in chocolate. "Huh?"
"I'm here for my-"
"Oh yes! The commissioner told me you are coming." The officer wiped the chocolate off her mouth. "Hold up your hand."
When Rei did, the chipmunk pulled out a stapler and pushed it on Rei's palm. With a click, sharpness shot into Rei's hand, making her moan. "Ouch!"
The chipmunk placed the stapler down. "There you go. Hold out your hand. You will see it."
Rei could see a tiny metal patch on her palm. She held her hand up as a holographic blue projection appeared in front of her.

“This is cool!” Rei exclaimed. “My photo is cute too!”
The chipmunk lady smiled. "If your arm gets cut off, we can always replace your implant with a bionic limb. Remember to show it so you wouldn't get arrested by mistake. Good luck."
"Thank you!" Rei strolled out of the office. Time to get her first weapon.

The Oath of Oblivion
Rane could draw power from the dead and make it his own. For some, such an arcane birthright would be a boon and a blessing. To Rane, it meant being forced on a path of bloodshed and death based on the whims of his slavers. To commit acts that went against every human instinct he retained. Years of torture and captivity have left his body weak and his mind in shambles, yet he still retains a few, fragmented memories. They hint at a life beyond what his prison and what his cruel masters have allowed him. At a family he's lost, and a promise he's already broken. To escape, Rane will have to face fierce beasts, unhinged mages and the true essence of what it means to be human. And as the peace between ancient kingdoms grows uneasy and the world plunges headfirst into madness, the cost of freedom might prove high. In the chaos of conflict and men’s ravenous ambitions, the true name of the world has been long forgotten. Nations wage bloody campaigns with remnants of ancestral magic while nature itself crumbles around them. Only one pillar of stability stands unshaken for millennia, anchoring the realm to balance. One single truth that no mage has yet to break. Oaths, once sworn, cannot be broken. Under the Arbiter's watchful eye, civilizations rise and crumble. People live and die.
