《A World Without》Running
Advertisement
I gasp for air. What? What? What?
Maybe they were right.
I turn.
Maybe the devil is me. And it's taking me over like ivy strangling a tree.
Killing me over the last 8 years. Letting things slip. Letting people get suspicious. Letting them get doubts. Letting them get fears. Just like the revolution.
It's suffocating me, draining me. Where is he? Where am I? Is Kirk real? Are there other's? Other people taken by the devil? Others like me?
Hands touch me suddenly and I punch Matt in the face. I cover my mouth with my hands as he reaches out for me. I can't. I can't.
Shaking my head I sprint off past Emily and the others. Out into the desert's wasteland. I can feel the devil clawing at my face and my feet. His hands squeezing my heart and howling into my ears. Just make it STOP!
I want to leave the accusations behind but the further I run the closer they get,
“....5th sense or something?” I hear my classmates echo in my mind.
“...creeps me out.” the words echo around my head.
“So sure of herself?...”
“...possibly know...”
“...she's possessed...”
“...the devil,” The word bangs against my skull.
“is the devil.” Bang!
“But Kai is.” I become aware of tears forming in my eyes.
“Thank you Kai.” Ffion's voice is now raw and sharp as it darts around my mind.
“Thank,”
“You.”
“Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.”
“Kai!” I snap back into reality.
“They're suspicious you know” I shake my head at the voices.
“You're not normal.” I am normal! I am! I shout.
My legs keep running on and on.
“The way you find us.”
“The way you walk.”
“Talk”.
“Ticking” At that word my pace slows.
Ticking.
“Ticking.”
Ticking.
“Clicking!” Megan's poisonous voice rattles through me as I speed up again,
“...immersed in thought...”
“...go around...”
“...suspicious too Kai.”
Kai.
Kai?
Kai?
“but it's perfectly understandable”
“understandable.” It echoes round my head.
SMACK!

The Princess And Her Warmonger
"Let me tell you a true story about a mouse and a Warmonger, and the unlikely relationship that sprouted between them in the time of endless war." Nostalisk is a world in endless constant war. The Factions of this world endlessly fight for power, this fighting called the Great Wars, a war that has been alive for over four million years. Currently, one of the largest Factions has withdrawn from the endless fighting. This Faction, known as the Kingdom, hopes to forget their past of endless bloodshed and how they were almost destroyed because of it. In the Kingdom, Princess Isalene, the only princess of the Kingdom, is stuck choosing a new personal guard after her previous one died. Despite her father, King Robert, helping her choose a new guard, Isalene decides to head to the arena to see how the knights on the list her father gave her act outside of the eyes of royals. When she arrives at the arena, she sees a knight fighting that is not on the list her father gave her. Named Cruel Knight, this knight is a vicious knight with confusing morals. Despite hating violence, Princess Isalene can't help but be drawn to the knight and their graceful yet cruel fighting style and strange weapons. Princess Isalene continues to watch them and soon learns that Cruel Knight is a Warmonger named Sharia, and is female at that, meaning she is a prisoner. She isn't in there for something simple as disobeying a direct order or killing a noble, but for prolonging a war. Despite knowing this, Princess Isalene can't stop thinking about the Warmonger and suddenly gets a "smart" idea. She'll make Sharia her new personal guard to find out more about her! What could go wrong? And so begins the odd relationship between Sharia The Warmonger and Princess Isalene. One is a peace-loving sheltered naive princess who hates violence and the other is a vicious, cold, twisted, and cruel Warmonger who hates the kind of peace Isalene and the current Kingdom loves. Polar opposites. Yet, even the Warmonger can't help but grow a strange liking to her new "annoyance". But, can the two really get along? After all, Sharia's whole mindset sees Isalene as a waste, and it seems that everyone Isalene talks to tells her to fire Sharia before something terrible happens. But, then again, during this time of budding danger, this odd couple may be what the Kingdom needs. After all, when a large faction such as the Kingdom starts growing soft and weak, they become a rather irresistible target. [After thinking on it, I decided to start a re-write of The Princess And Her Warmonger, adding more details, fixing the switching POVs somewhat, and fixing some of the issues with the story. Don't worry, all of the chapters are still here, I am just making new ones and replacing the old chapters one at a time] (This story can also be found on Scribble Hub and Webnovel) [Cover art is not mine]
