《A generic love story: disturbance》Chapter 8

*Ringtone plays*
The sound of an incoming call suddenly interrupted their quarrel. Frustrated, Tatsuya sighed and went to get the phone. (Perhaps it`s Kura). But it wasn`t. Tatsuya suddenly felt chills down his spine as he looked at the unknown number on the screen.
“Hey. Is this… ehh Shidehara Tatsuya?” A gruff voice entered his ears.
“Yes, who is on the other side?”
“Not important. Listen, we have your daughter in captive, her name is Emiko, eh… the natural blondie that have just entered Toudai.”
Tatsuya`s heart dropped. The blood cell started a mass exodus away from his face, and Narumi`s expression changed into pure dread upon seeing her husband`s. However his nerves were not that of ordinary people, and Tatsuya replied with a stern voice:
“What do you want?”
“Ah, wait now, we don`t need to go into that subject yet. Answer this, do you remember xxx incorporated?”
“What are you talking about? Where is Emiko!”
“You are one impatient geezer aint cha. Xxx incorporated is a company that, well unlucky ‘nuff, “got in the way” of the rampaging “Shidehara group” back then, and went bankrupt. That company, united with many others, attempted to sue Shidehara group. And failed miserably, thanks to all of the chairman`s connections, mister Shidehara. In short, you and your group fucked up my old man`s livelihood and in turn fucked my whole life up. . Tell me, do you even remember how many small businesses have you hungry bastard devoured?”
“I don`t fucking care! Is she safe right now? How much do you want?”
“Haaa… such a perfect businessman from start to end… Not wanting to waste any time eh? Fine, disband Shidehara group and resign from your position now. I don`t need your dirty money. She comes back when I see the official news. And do be hurry, I`m real horny right now and I just wanna fuck some blondie.”

“Teme…” Tatsuya grinded his teeth
“Well, Mistar Shidehara, seeing that you are a busy person, I shall leave your sorry ass alone now. Remember to not touch the police; I`ve got connections. Peace.”
The call ended, and then silence reigned. Narumi`s sobs broke out, but only to further deepen the air that was already saturated with despair. In the midst of that situation, yet another phone call came. His eyes read “Kura” on the screen, and he instinctively picked up.
“Hello?... Kyoya said he has seen your daughter this evening… Yes, I`ll give him the phone…“
Another voice, this time gasped and trembling:
“Ah yes… This is Kyoya… Hai… about Emiko… I saw her entering a bar this evening. The place is very far from your house… on xxx street, and I`m sure it was her… the club is on the ground floor but the building is an apartment complex…”
“…“
“Is there anything else we can do?”
“…”
“Emiko… is being held captive. Some random bastards… they kidnapped her…” His reply was like a hammer dropping down on Kyoya`s mind.
The clock showed half past nine at Kenichi`s place. Someone pressed the bell on his front door, and as Kenichi went to check it, he heard what sounded like an argument.
“This is a horrible idea, Kyoya!”
“Please mom, trust me for this once! We need to help her!”
“And exactly how are you going to do that? Crash into a yakuza`s turf and get killed?”
“Mom! I need to help her!”
*Sigh* ”Why the hell did I take you here in the first place.”
The door`s handle was twisted, and it opened. A man in his late thirties, tall, thin and hardened, greeted them. Without any formalities, Kyoya frantically explained everything for him. Kura followed up with her objections. When it was finally his turn to speak, Kenichi slowly explained:

“I know that I have no rights to tell Kyoya what to do, since I`m just his grade school PE teacher. The final call is completely up to you, Miss. However I do recommend going there and taking a look. According to what Kyoya said, the enemy is unaware that we know their position, thus the bar shouldn`t be too tightly secured. If you allow, I`ll bring Kyoya there with me and scout around, maybe we can help the police a thing or two.”
“Ugh… I don`t like this at all…”
“Mom!”
“Fine! You fucking twerp! But just look around OK? Promise me that you won`t do anything rash!”

Dreams or Another World - Not a Zero (Update 09/19/21)
(Updated 09/19/21) Hello and welcome. If you made it this far and the book title sounds interesting, I'm hoping you'll read a few chapters. Here's a sample from chapter 1 of "Dreams or Another World - Not a Zero."Slowly starting to wake up, I become aware. It's like coming out of a fog.Head hurts.Body hurts.There's a conversation in the room. This isn't my bed. Someone is touching my arm. I crack my eyes to look. She doesn't notice. Is she praying for me? Her hands do feel good…do feel... Slipping back unconscious, my eyes slowly close. I didn't notice the soft green glow under Jenn’s hands.*******************"It does look like he saved them or at least stalled them long enough for us to get there." says the man dressed more like a park ranger than an officer of the law. "I did think he was part of it at first" he continues "but the evidence shows he wasn't there and they were certainly fighting on that back road where we found them""I don't care who he is." says a woman as she enters the room. "He saved and protected my Jenn. I will make sure there's not a mark or a scar on him before he leaves". As she continues the few steps over to the men speaking, even though dressed simply in common clothes, there is no doubt the race of elves is in her heritage. The grace and lines of her form. The elegance and lightness of her step. She glances at her daughter, still watching over the young man in the bed. "Do we know who he is yet?" she asks no one in particular."Not yet dear" a man in a white coat responds. A handsome middle-aged man. Fit, but not that of a fighter or ranger. "I asked Talon to bring another identification stone with him. I was hoping ours was just broke, but it's reading the same.""What do you think is wrong?" Talon asks."I'm thinking we just have to wait until he recovers. I have heard of cases where the stone didn't work. Powerful spells can hide or wipe a person clean. I doubt he's a spy or a criminal. Spells like that are just too high level if, they're used at all. My best guess is, there is just some disconnect with him being unconscious. When he wakes, we can ask him or use the stone again then."I find myself waking up in a hospital bed. The attending Doctor finds it odd that he cannot identify my class. An Officer says I’m a Hero for saving a girl from being kidnapped, but he’s asking too many questions for my liking. I know an accusing tone when I hear it. I don’t remember any of it and I need to find my way home.Author’s notes. Original work. First draft and update of chapters 1-16. Inspired by various fantasy games and books. Written with a focus on character development and interaction. Combat, progression, leveling, classes, but no numbers or stats. I’ll try to keep the language clean, PG-13, no smut. I’m in the US, writing in English. Almost fifty chapters are completed as I pen this introduction. I intend to complete this story or at least bring it to a proper ending. I have a destination in mind. I find as I write, doors and ideas open, while others close and are discarded. The tentative release schedule will be once a week. I'm new to creating. My apologies now while I learn. I have not settled on a book cover or artwork, still looking for something that fits. Registered & Protected #20VjeKDv2U6nynW6

Suddenly, a succubus
The protagonist is a personality like an iceberg: introspective, asocial and completely uninterested in the world and its people beyond necessity. Approaching ships beware! A succubus, on the other hand, lives for desire and interaction, playing mortal hearts like a fiddle. These clearly mix like oil and water, so what do you get when you combine them? This is a story of that kind of emulsion. *** Completed with 62 chapters + epilogue (total of 111k words). *** This novel is bit of an experiment for me. I haven't written fiction before, for one. I also chose a character context that I normally wouldn't, and let the characters drive the story, especially in the beginning. Overall the main focus will be the main character's own story rather than the events of the world. The setting itself uses many familiar fantasy elements, though I plan to add my own twists. Note that I'm not really planning to write any steamy scenes, despite the said character context being literal demons of lust and all. There are of course jokes and scenes that skirt around the subject, but this is not a romance story of any kind. So, is it a mess? Probably. But I hope it's an entertaining one at that.

False Reality
Wildbridge was a sleepy town. Nothing much happened there. Well, not since... Martin. And that suited Serina just fine. But everything was about to change. Or had it already started changing, and all that was about to happen was that people were going to start noticing? Well, it's difficult not to notice when people start turning up dead. Murdered. Especially when you're a senior member of the Serious Crime Investigation team. Meanwhile, many light years away on the non-aligned planet of Jahanna, changes were already afoot, and there were whispers of rebellion and revolution on the streets. But death is not far away here, either. As the well-oiled machinery of the bureaucracy begins to stutter and creak under the weight of murder and betrayal, just how far will the Council go to maintain the status quo? How could the events in Wildbridge possibly have any bearing on Jahanna? And what exactly happened on Bershevah?

Blood of the Past
He awoke in a startled rush feeling as though it had been centuries since last he had opened his eyes, but alas, it had. His thoughts returned and he heard the screaming of his people and the great pain from the burning fires set against them. He was shunned and outcast along with the rest of his people, and the wars, the terrible wars fought because they could not understand. The Humans could not understand and would not understand him and his peoples true nature. He stood, his strength returning to him, as he did so the dust that had gathered on him fell to the floor. He looked around the cave which he hid in all those centuries ago and he found the way out. He made his way towards it, wanting to see the same as which he had when he entered, wilderness. He made it to the mouth of the cave and found it to be near midday, and he saw naught but wilderness. Save a lone tower far in the distance clearly overgrown and abandoned. His blood boiled as he stepped into the light and the harsh reality of him and his people rushed back into his mind. He would wait for night, and then he would move.
