Chapter Twelve—Return
The explosion sent a shockwave of debris across the forest floor. Kyle jumped behind a tree root for cover as the ground underneath him shook.
Thanking the gods that these trees provided a lot of cover and protection because of their extremely thick trunks Kyle snarled. “Fuckers!”
Getting back up from his sudden cowering from the laser, he peeked out and fired his entire clip through the canopy at the Strogaus shuttle.
He knew he was hitting it, because the sound of his lasers impacting the hull were thunderous and explosive.
Lasers from the ground came through the ferns. One of them nearly fried his head as he ducked down.
“May!” he called. “May—are you still alive?”
“No thanks to you!”
“I’m coming!”
“I’m almost out of rounds. I got one mag left!”
Grunting heavily as he got up, Kyle leaned out and a laser scored the tree in front of him as he moved back jerkily.
“I’m pinned!” Kyle said.
“Fuck!”
“As much as I’d like that—I’m kinda busy.”
“Not the time, Kyle!”
The coms chirped, indicating the third party speaking after remaining silent for some time. “The ship’s ready to go.”
“On our way,” May said. “By the way… Kyle?”
“Yeah?”
“Staxx just called me a minute ago.”
With a sigh of relief, Kyle put his rifle out while keeping under cover and shot off an entire clip of energy rounds—then he lurched out from his place of hiding and ran.
Lasers came through the clearing and crackled past him as he came to a cops of particularly thick trees.
Because of the protection, he kept running as lasers scored the trunks, but none of them came through the gaps.
May in her black latex came into view as he ran through a group of ferns. She was sitting down behind a fallen tree. She saw him just as a Strogaus agent all in black rounded the upturned roots.

She lifted her rifle and fired a fusillade of lasers at him. One landed, cracking his BD-S unit, the energy barrier shattering as Kyle fired the finishing round that scored a direct hit on his chest.
As he ran to her, lasers passed him overhead making the air crackle with lethal energy.
“Kyle—you idiot!” she screamed. “Get down!”
He landed on his hip next to her. “Hey!”
“I knew you were crazy—but I didn’t know you were nuts.”
The Strogaus shuttle hovered over the trees, blowing the canopy about violently. May covered her face with her arm as Kyle did the same thing.
“If they know we’re here, we’re done.”
“Let’s go!” Kyle screamed.
“We can’t! They’ll shoot us in the back.”
“Shit!”
The sound of a rail gun echoed through the trees. Kyle glanced about.
That’s got to be…
“That’s John!”
“How do you know?”
“I know!”

{The Dragon Within} (Completed)
Meeting his fate at the hands of seven great heroes, the wicked drake now stands in Death's hall. Met with the Grim Reaper itself. Defeated and its pride broken, the drake doesn’t beg or grovel, it simply awaits judgement. It waits for the God of the afterlife to send it on its way, to either the heights of bliss and peace or where it knew it would be sent. The depths of agony and torture, the halls of Tartarus, the father of monsters. Grim looked up from its oaken desk and down at the creature that would have otherwise, if grown wiser and older, matched the reaper itself in power. Its faceless guise, hidden by a black hood and whirling shadows, it briefly stared at the drake. “You are unfit for the sky yet also too fit for the abyss,” Grim spoke, its voice a cracking whisper. “Your time came too soon, the actions you have taken will lead your world to ruin…Be reborn, pitiful serpent. Yet remember what you have done, see what your actions have made that realm into. Let me show you, how your greed and gluttony have warped such a wonderful place and time.” Grim raised its black-feathered pen towards the beast “Be reborn, as the weak pitiful creature you should have been born as. Take this both as a punishment and…a learning experience. For failure, can be the best teacher.” The drake took a step back, hoping to escape this cruel fate. Yet none escaped Death, less so its embodiment. Screaming shadows engulfed his form, ripping away at his body and shape. Fangs of darkness sinking deep into his draconic flesh, warping it, changing him into something else… Opening his eyes, the wicked drake felt none of its power, none of its magic and none of its might. As it stood at the edge of a cliff, looking down upon a ruined valley of rot and miasma. It glanced down at itself, seeing none of its sturdy scales or sharp claws. The drake had been reborn... As a Human. Will also be posting on CreativeNovels found here; CrN Where chapters will be posted earlier than RRL.

When the rebels-turned-kingdom Lirsk breached the peace treaty between them, war broke out. But Lirsk Kingdom was by no means fair, and countless underhanded matters was done in the military compound, pointing to a cause: there was a traitor amongst them. With the ever-wary, wrongly-accused young Major Dev, they tried to uncover the unknown: who was the traitor that caused hundreds of deaths? [Book 1 of the Guardians of Forewood series]

The Origins Of The Races [Español!]
Primero quiero decir que como veras esta historia esta en español ya que mi ingles es muy malo para hacer una novela. Segundo puse todas las advertencias para más libertad de expresión. En un mundo tan grande, los orígenes de las cosas pueden ser muy interesantes desde la casualidad, por Dios o por simples mortales. Al haber muchas razas cada uno tiene sus Orígenes ya sea el más débil o el más fuerte cada uno tiene su razón de estar hasta el que dicen que si se extingue mañana no pasaría nada. porque las razas no son solo un grupo de seres ellos representan una emoción o más y aunque otros pueden sentirlos no viven por ello. Vamos a ver desde el punto de vista de muchos personajes históricos de este cosmos como se origino muchas razas, hechos de culturas, tecnología, frases, facciones y demás. ¿Te atreves a leer estos mitos? Soportaras el intento inútil de Finnegan, verás como Stacy tiene una mala infancia, verás como Yare hace todo lo posible por amor aunque el sea un Yandere. Si te atreves a leerlo porque esto es solo el comienzo. Quiero decir que si quieres saber bien de qué se trata la historia con leer el prologo no basta ya que solo lo hice para dar un trasfondo a la historia y no se puede tomar muy en cuenta de cómo es la historia, si quieres saber bien cómo es lee el primer capítulo y el primer pensamiento del autor que está después del primer capítulo. La portada tiene de base una foto de Fotos de Stock por Vecteezy y editada por mi. Horario: lunes,miércoles,viernes y domingo por ahora la hora especifica está en cambios.
