《Parrotise》6 - I'm not Torra
Advertisement
After 2 weeks of my favorite chocolate, Toblerone, being unavailable at the local Target I was a bit surprised and simultaneously amused. Had Wayfinder noticed my quirk? I didn’t leave any evidence that she should be able to identify. It would take a trained eye that knew what to look for. Wayfinder was pretty smart but not that smart.
It was curious. As this world's savior, my imperfections are far beyond the notice of common men. I know that sounds quite arrogant, but it is sadly the truth. Statistically speaking, there shouldn’t be anyone at my level on Earth and maybe 3-4 somewhere close. We’re not just talking about intellect here, believe it or not I am a psychopath and my ability to perceive other people’s emotions and act normal is precisely why no one could find me.
Because of my curiosity, I decided to look into the toblerone disappearance. Not with the internet of course, that would be too normie for me. I simply activated my tobleradar. A reprogrammed satellite that one of the world governments had thought was destroyed. They allowed it to crash back into the earth’s atmosphere and made sure that it got wrecked.
The way I did it was by recovering the crash pieces of a satellite everyone thought crashed over the ocean and was irrecoverable. Then, I convinced them that one of their current satellites was going bust and they should crash it and replace it. Then I just hacked the satellite, reprogrammed it to stop signalling to their towers, simulated a satellite crash and gave them the pieces of their old satellite which they thought was irrecoverable.
One must not skimp out when building trackers for the ultimate creation of human ingenuity.
…
Dr. Ratine stared at Sally confused.
“Soooo… do you go by Dr. Ratine or Torra?” Sally had asked him.

She said, Torra. Not Sora. Who the hell was Torra? Wait, was his son innocent and he simply got mistaken for someone else?
Sally blinked, waiting for an answer. Dr. Ratine did his best to hide his thoughts.
At that moment, Captain Wayfinder walked in.
“I’m not Torra,” Dr Ratine said.
Captain Wayfinder narrowed her eyes. “Y’know, you’re gonna have to do a better job than this if you really want me to believe you aren’t Torra.” She then pointed a handheld projector at a wall and it displayed a video of a computer.
It was Captain Wayfinder’s computer and the screen was black with some green words on it. It read, “Dr. Ratine is not me. I, Torra, am still at large! I recommend you let Dr. Ratine goes so that he doesn’t waste any of the precious class 12 containment resources. I assure you he isn’t bright enough for a quarter of those security measures to be put in place”
Reading this Dr. Ratine almost wanted to cry. This Torra person was doing this on purpose right?
If Captain Wayfinder had any doubts that he wasn’t Torra before when her computer was hacked, those doubts had greatly diminished because of how suspicious it was that he claimed not to be Torra immediately after she got this message. She wasn’t stupid.
Dr. Ratine was slightly wrong. It wasn’t that her doubts of him being Torra were diminished. They were totally wiped out! The message only appeared after she typed “Dr. Ratine” into a search bar!
“I’m really not Torra. The only reason I remained silent was because I thought you thought that I was Sora Ratine. Sora is my son and I just wanted to protect him in case there was a misunderstanding!”
“Oh yeah, sure you its a misunderstanding…” Captain Wayfinder sarcastically rolled her eyes. “Just how stupid do you think I am?”

Unbeknownst to her, all four people in the class 12 prisons were thinking she was pretty stupid at that moment. They just didn’t say anything because, if Torra had hacked into her computer to leave her a message, then he had another weakness. Pride! He wanted to be recognized for his work and wouldn’t allow someone like Ratine to take his credit!
…
This thought process of theirs was a bit too self centered. Unlike those selfish class 12s, I am quite selfless. I am, after all, doing what I’m doing to save the world. Most importantly, I wasn’t messaging Captain Wayfinder to get her to release Dr. Ratine. I did it to distract her so I could sneak out some of my precious!
…
Captain Wayfinder decided to take a walk while her computer was being replaced. As she did, she unconsciously found herself in front of the warehouse where the Toblerone were kept. Walking inside, she grabbed a bar off of the nearest crate and expertly opened it up, broke off a piece and put it in her mouth. She savored it. She had begun to understand why Torra got addicted to this. Her moment of bliss made her completely unaware of the other entity in the warehouse. And so this entity just left as calmly as they came, except with a giant box of toblerone.

Tim the Engineer
Summoned against his will to a world of swords and magic, an engineering student struggles to find a way home under the shadow of a world devouring threat. ***************************** Updates: 5/13/19: Revisions to several chapters for clarity, grammar, and style. 4/29/19: A short side story and artwork has been added to the blog. 4/8/19: A Side Story has been updated on my new blog (every writer is required to have one). https://talesfromliahar.wordpress.com/ ***************************** “The summoning scenarios are broken down into groups of ten.” Emi Ito stated. “Don’t, don’t you dare say another word.” Muttered Genzo Uchida. His eyes had turned bloodshot and his hands shook with rage. “The first thirty…” “Shut up!” Genzo bellowed “How dare you help these disrespectful gaijin?” Flecks of spit and madness flew from his face, his fist raised ready to strike. But Emi did not flinch, instead she was about ready to continue when Yuma Takeuchi interrupted her. “Uchida, please,” her sweet sounding words could melt ice. “I think we will have a better chance of getting home if we all work together.” When she glanced up with her sleepy looking eyes at Genzo Uchida he deflated visibly. “Were not getting home.” Uchida said coolly. “Group summoning, large, that puts us in the 60 series. No one came to greet us after five minutes of arrival. That leaves scenarios 68 and 69. In scenario 68 there is something that binds the large group together; they are all classmates or a single family. But thanks to the gaijin” he spit out the word “I think we are scenario 69 with no way home.” Ikko Inoue’s eyes went wide, while Katsukno and Hayata started muttering to themselves. Tim took on a serious look and rubbed his scruffy chin. Emi maintained her stoic expression while trying to find something to refute. McKenzie glanced at Randall and giggled. Randall took the prompting of his teammate and followed up by approaching Genzo. “Uh, so we are in a sixty-nine?” “Yes.” Replied Genzo with the seriousness of someone who’s life was about to end. McKenzie covered her mouth and snickered. “You and me, were stuck in a sixty-nine situation?” Randall pushed with a grin. “Yes, we are all stuck in a sixty-nine scenario together!” Genzo retorted in anger. McKenzie fell on her butt laughing. “What the hell is so funny?” Demanded Genzo, whose face had turned red. “It’s a problem with the automatic translation.” Retorted Tim. Randall, who seemed unable to quit started in again “So, about this sixty-ni…” Genzo interrupted Randall with a swift punch to the face. But, because of their height difference it was a bit of an uppercut that left Randall rattled. Tim and Ikko moved to step in between the two, but Genzo showed no further hostility. Instead he just stared at his clenched fist with such intensity it grabbed the attention of the room. “I unlocked a skill.” He said bluntly. ***************************** This is not a light novel, but people who like light novels should enjoy the themes of this book. ***************************** A Map of the Region

The Eye in the Sky
People have always thought that the undead would come from hell - that they would rise from their graves to bring their torments upon the earth. They never thought that they would come from the heavens instead and rain upon the world like divine judgment. Ten years had passed since that day. Evan had thought that he had seen all there is to see. What remained of civilized society couldn't recover. Millions of zombies wandered in every city, and thousands more roam the countryside. Every day was a struggle to survive just as it had always been. He, as well as most of the survivors that remained on earth, had resigned themselves to a life of wandering until their deaths. Their last hope was news of an underground settlement being constructed to the far west, outside the eyes of the wandering and falling undead. But then they encounter a girl who had survived in the middle of a heavily-infested city. She claims that she knows of a way to end the apocalypse once and for all. What should he and his group do?
