《Different》Chapter 4 - Rainfall
Advertisement

Soro felt some energy coursing through his body, he had gotten a complete adrenaline boost and could almost ignore the physical pain he was currently in. He slowly got up from the tree he was leaning on and slapped his cheeks to knock his senses back to normal.
["What was that voice ?"]
Soro began to walk towards the lake, however it was no where to be found, the water which filled it had completely vanished and all that remained was a large hole. He caught a glance of the shining blue spark, which now had the shape of a lightning bolt dug onto the center of the hole. He was aware he would not be able to climb back up if he went down the hole due to his injuries, instead he grabbed a stick from the ground and threw it towards the spark, the stick was instantly burnt into ashes.
["Woah! just how hot is that thing ?"]
Soro felt a sharp ache on his legs and completely lost his balance, he fell over onto ground.
"Aghh!"
["Damn these legs, I should probably lay low and try to get some rest for now"]
He closed his eyes and relaxed his muscles.
["Ah this is nice.....I need to pee though"]
A large rumble came from the sky as if a deadly storm was about to take place. Soro jolted his eyes open and looked up at the sky. He saw tiny sparks of blue lights covering the entire sky. It was as if all the stars in the sky had turned blue.
["That's strange, didn't Akame say her dad saw something similar last night ? "]
The lights started to grow in size over time.
["Why do I get the strange feeling that they are moving ?"]
The sound of the rumble grew stronger as time passed by and it wasn't till a short while that Soro realized they where falling down.

["This is bad.."]
The sparks started accelerating downwards and some where bouncing off each other upon contact. Soro leaned forwards from the ground and tried to get up but it was no use, although he had the energy to his body was far too injured for him to be able to move much.
["No no no, not like this!"]
He attempted to crawl on the ground towards a nearby boulder to take shelter, but before he managed to reach the boulder one of the sparks struck the boulder and broke it down into little pieces.
["Shit!"]
The other sparks started to reach the surface and pierce there way into it like arrows. Soro had just about lost all hope for survival there were too many of them falling, it was only a matter of time before one hit him he thought.
["I'm sorry Takimi, your big brother won't be here to take care of you any longer..."]
He heard a quiet buzzing sound in his head and the voice awoke once again.
{{"You have not answered my question"}}
["It's you again"]
{{"I will ask you once more, Do you wish to live ?"}}
["It's impossible, even if I managed to get up, one of those things would definitely hit me"]
{{"That's not the answer i'm looking for"}}
["I guess if it were possible, It would be nice to live a little longer"]
{{"Very well then"}}
The buzzing sound in his head completely stopped and the voice could no longer be heard.
["Something's off, I feel completely normal"]
Soro got up off the ground and started shaking his legs around, he then put his hand over his forehead which was bleeding earlier on and then looked at his hand, there was no trace of blood to be found whatsoever, his wounds had somehow magically recovered.
["I can't feel any pain, what's going on ?"]
One of the sparks from the sky landed right next to his right foot nearly grazing his shoe. He leaped away from it as if his reflexes acted on their own.

["I can worry about all this later, I have to get away from here first"]
He began to sprint into the forest as fast as he could pushing passed bushes and plants in his way, he leaped over small boulders and even swung on some branches of short trees. He had no intention of stopping, but it was only a matter of time before he became tired. After running past a phew more trees he paused for a while to catch his breath.
"Huff.....Huff.....Dammit!"
He placed his hand on his chest and gripped it tightly as he spoke.
"Hey....huff....I know it's been months.... since I made you work this hard before.....huff.....but..."
The boy looked down at his chest with a worried face as he leaned down from all the fatigue of running.
"We are both going to die this time if you don't push yourself beyond your limit!"
He then leaned back up straight and raised his head up slightly to the sky.
"Oh who am I kidding!"
He then reached for the left pocket of his trousers and slipped out his smartphone then stared down at the screen showing the current time and date.
"Ah it's 8:27 PM, at least now I will know the time I died haha..."
["Why am I getting a slight feeling of deja vu ?"]
He slipped his phone into his pocket and began to run again
["How have none of them hit me yet ?"]
["Could it be that they are actually holograms and can't actually damage me ?"]
He stopped for a moment as if he was willing and brave enough to find that answer out for himself.
One of the sparks fell down at a enormous speed and went right passed the boys face while slitting some of his hair off like it were nothing and pierced its way through the solid ground. His eyes widened in shock.
["YEP THAT'S NOT LIKELY!"]
Soro took another leap away from it and started running now faster than ever. He eventually spotted a small glimpse of what looked like a large rocky boulder with a hole around the size of a van and stared at it with a surprised look on his face
["A cave maybe ? Could I really be saved !?!?"]
He started running towards it and jumped over a log in front of him with a somewhat joyful expression on his face and yelled.
"I'M SAVED!"
He started to reach closer and closer to the cave and after a couple of seconds he finally reached it but stopped just before entering to catch his breath.
"Huff....huff.....I did it!"
He raised his head up to the sky and put a huge grin on his face as he shouted.
"HAHA YOU CAN'T GET ME YOU BLUE LITTLE PIECES OF SHI..."
At that moment one of the blue sparks slightly brighter in color than the rest shot out of the sky at jet speed as if it had just been shot from a laser gun like the ones seen in sci-fi movies and pierced its way right into the boys right eye as blood splashed out of it like a bucket of paint exploding.
He no longer had a look of joy on his face. No, it was more like....a look of terror.
His entire body was launched onto the ground with great force from the impact of the horrific bolt now covered in his blood.
The boys mouth opened widely as he screamed from the bottom of his lungs to the very tip.
"AAAAAAAAAAUUGHHHHHHHHH....!!!!!!!"

Mordheim: Servants of The Damned (A Warhammer Fantasy Fiction)
“The Great Library,” Stated the stranger with a pause. “You know of it?”“Of course I do. In the Merchant’s Quarter?”“Yes, in the Merchant’s Quarter. I have gathered that there is an… artefact of importance within its walls.” Slowly, the figure produced a rusted key from the furls of his robes and held it in a black-gloved hand. “This opens the door to its chambers. It is the grimoire of Gunnar von Krugenheim, and I believe that it would serve better in the world than locked away in a dusty room.” Behind the cursed walls of Mordheim, warbands and gangs of all stripes are embattled in constant wars for resources and power. The cursed city attracts throngs in the thousands, searching for treasures, artefacts, power, and sometimes all three. The Cult of the Hidden Brethren is no exception, and when an opportunity to extend their reach is discovered, the cultists are eager to take the opportunity. However, not all is set in stone, and soon the cultists discover that the lure of power alone may not be enough to give them the drive required to see their quest done... --- Mordheim: Servants of the Damned is a fanfiction set in the world of Warhammer Fantasy, which is not owned by me but by the company Games Workshop. I of course, lay claim to nothing in this story but the characters I have created, and the core events of the story itself. This is my first true foray into fantasy writing, let alone Warhammer Fantasy, therefore any feedback is welcome. (It should be noted as well, the cover art is merely an artwork I found online and is not mine, therefore I do not lay claim to that either.)
