《Nekana, One in Billions, Lost.》Chapter 2 - The Seat Matters
Advertisement
Presently, the protagonist of this story is in class. The class attended was not about magic, archery, nor was it even about alchemy! Nor was it swordsmanship classes. It wasn’t Greek classes whereupon Nekana had wished upon; she hoped for a chance in demi-god class whereas Greek would just mysteriously pop into the language section of her brain.
Disappointingly, no. She still dreamed though.
Said class presently had History. The majority of the class had problems staying up but Nekana was currently flipping through the more interesting part of the textbook. Definitely not the one the teacher was on however.
Nekana sat at the back of the class. Left-handed on the very last row, second seat by the window. Normally, the window with splendid green scenery would’ve helped (In inspiration obviously, just kidding) but not in this case. She was rather grateful in her current sitting, as her class placed on the third floor and by the wall side (where Nekana ALMOST sat) was bird feces all over. The waste matter were splattered artistically all over the ventilation box thingy where it was hanged and it wasn’t a pleasant sight.
Next to her was her best friend (first seat by the window, folks!). She went by the name of Yasmine; and Yasmine was a very fabulous person (gone by Nekana’s standards). Yasmine was a self-proclaimed: drunk giraffe, and her social group were all in agreement.
She was Maldivian and her religion let not alcohol so her nickname was not in a literal meaning. Even so, she certainly acted drunk enough. Yasmine was one of another comrade in arms when it came to the bookdragons because bookworms sounded wimpy. Unlike Nekana, the Maldivian was deeply in depth with the sea similarly to her country. If the topic of ships were brought up, Yasmine could go on for hours.

The fangirl had dark skin and smooth black hair that curled at the tips. She had a blunt nose and large, sized right, light brown eyes. They glowed even more beautifully when reflected by the sun. Above said eyes were her near perfect eyebrows which Yasmine was very proud of. Her lips were neither too plump nor too thin. Nekana’s deepest impression of Yasmine were her eyes, which seemed so full of life.
Nekana had to admit, although she was sometimes play insulted by her best friend, she admired Yasmine. The Maldivian was a very open-minded and cheerful person. Unlike Yasmine in several ways, the brunette was somewhat reserved; and she admired people like Yasmine.

After the End: Serenity
We all want to believe we are heroes of our own story - unless we want to be the villain, of course. At the end of everything, the Final Reaper decided he hadn’t been a hero. Driven by a desire to right the wrongs he was subjected to, he killed everyone who wronged him or his people - which turned out to be everyone that wasn’t killed by someone else first. He'd won - but it was a hollow victory. Eventually, Order’s Voice found a way out. If the only existing being would agree to give up most of his power, the Voice could reset the multiverse to an earlier time with a few minor changes. Of course, the Voice couldn't ask it that way. It could only ask if the Final Reaper was willing to start over from when Earth was first brought into Order. It was an easy decision, and yet it wasn’t. Was he willing to go through eons of pain again to not be alone? Yes. In a heartbeat. Not that his heart beat anymore. Now it would. Perhaps he could even be a hero, this time. When he landed in his old body - more or less - on Earth, the Final Reaper once again became Thomas. He was both and neither. He needed a new name for a new life. Serenity. ------------------------------------------ While this is technically a System Apocalypse story, it's a System Apocalypse that is designed to have a large percentage of the population survive and prosper. There are a lot of problems that come with the appearance of the Voice, and it's entirely possible to lose. Earth has some special opportunities, but also special challenges. The first time around, Earth won the first round and lost the second. Serenity has ten years from when the Voice arrives to prevent that from happening. It will be a group effort; Serenity can't win alone - which is difficult for someone who's been alone for as long as he has. Of course, that's only his second priority. ------------------------------------------- Updates Daily A note on the nonhuman lead tag: He isn't human, and hasn't been human for a very, very long time (or maybe not long at all, depending on how you count it). He still thinks of himself as human, either way. The content warnings are mostly to give me room to write; this fiction is not intended to be edgy, but once in a while a character will swear or someone will get seriously injured.

While we're not going to space itself any time soon in the story, people from elsewhere are coming to Earth and Serenity will visit other planets. Plus, I like space imagery.
