《DOPEMAN》Lookout: Watching Angels Sing

"Hey..."
"Huh? Where am I?"
"Do you like her?"
"D-Dani?!"
"Well? Answer my question."
"Yes, I do."
"Then why do you still think of me?"
"What do you mean?"
"Let go."
"Dani, you're not making sense..."
"Let go. Let go. Let go."
Another long night, I felt guilty. Sera doesn't deserve this turmoil. She moved in with me in the tent unofficially. She latches on to me for dear life once we sleep, must be a natural thing, cause she sleeps peacefully. She's so beautiful like...
I can't think about her. I can't.
I walked out to see the troops in lukewarm spirits as they saw Kyle walk around. He recovered in a matter of a few days and helped me out with a new operation to get rid of the Angel Waste. I call it Operation: Wing Clipper. With the task force set up, all we need was to scope out the battlefield and get a map set up. For now, I got the news that communication across southern Nevada was now set up. One of the soldiers tells me that a woman from Badland was attempting to call me. Well, who can guess that?
I get to the radio and turn on the mic. "Haper?"
Some static, then finally I hear a voice. "Yeah? Dopeman! Finally!"
"How did you know I was even at camp?"
"Well, I called the main base, one of my connections told me you were here."
"Slick. So how are you? You got my letter?"
Haper laughed a bit. "Yeah. I'm happy that you even remember to send me a letter back."
"You're a good friend, Haper. I like talking to you. When this is all over I want us to be good friends!"

She starts sniffing as the connection worsens. "You... W-well, I can't wait till you get back! I'm sure you got a ton of stories to tell! The people are really liking what Dopeman did to the war so far."
"Like, Dopeman or Foolish Courier?"
"At this point, it's about half and half."
"Good. Well, I got more work to do, keep spreading the good name! Stay safe!"
"You too, Dopeman!"
As soon as the moon went up, the scouting party was on. I wanted it to be in teams of two. I teamed myself with Fisher. We rode to the field, taking in a position in the grass. Fisher pulls out a recorder for note-taking purposes.
"This is Dopeman. Date is November 2nd, 2092, 12:50 AM. I see..." I zoom in a bit with my binoculars. "Five catapults. They are separated too far for a bombing run. Maybe we have to go on foot destroy them. Next to the catapults are tons of Angel Waste." I pull out a camera to take a picture of the placements and the waste. "I also see Tribe Trastorno." I take a picture of them. "I also... Crap."
Fisher looks up. "What? No..."
"It's NRF. NRF is working with Tribe Trastorno. This ain't good."
They were supplying them with men and gear. I had to take a few more pictures of the men together. The NRF wore riot gear usually. They had their large shield logo on the side, making sure we knew what they are. Once we got the shots, we rode out.
"So," Fisher said while we were just about at the fort. "What now?"
I laugh. "We just kill them too."

Restless Night, Pleasant Dreams
I lived my life as a dream. Waking up to attend parties with those of my elk, sleeping with the bright and pretty, leaving behind many promises and lies. I woke up from all of that nonsense. No... it is better to say that I was— shock awake.. I watched my father die like a dog trying to protect my mother. I watch my mother take her own life after my father died. I clearly remember sitting in the steam carriage, nursing a hangover. Praying for this trip to be over. I clearly remember the amber eyes and twelve foot wing span. I clearly remember the sound of iron doors being ripped open as if it was paper wall. I clearly remember other drivers screaming and the sound of collisions and explosions as people rekt in panic of escaping. I remember the death around me and the fear that gripped me. The soul stirring feeling that sent me fleeing while my parents were suck clean of blood. I remember thinking, berating myself hours later. Gripping my hair, slapping my palms into my forehead, questioning why I didn't carry my tools. Weeks pass since that time.. My guilt is gnawing at me and this pain isn't something I like. I almost feel like the man in the mirror isn't me. The me I used to be. Maybe, if I take revenge. I can put these demons to rest? Maybe, if I put these bastard in a grave. I can be someone new? Maybe, after they all die. This mirror won't haunt me with their faces?

Return of Chaos
For the longest time, it was thought that the citizens of Earth were the only denizens of the galaxy incapable of developing superhuman abilities — but recent events have flipped that assumption on its head. Between Austin Travis, Mote Emerson, Pierce Bradley, and their friends, Earth is now host to 12 Chaotics… as well as a myriad of mysteries surrounding them. From a new nemesis in the form of a clone, to connections to ancient technology from a long-lost civilization, to the ability to summon powerful legendary weapons, these 12 Chaotics have unknowingly become entangled in something larger than any of them have ever imagined. As if in response to these discoveries, the sinister machinations of galactic evil are churning. The metallic infection, a calamitous nanotechnology “disease” thought to have been vanquished 20 years ago, is slowly returning — and alongside it, a number of conflicts thought to be long past. While they only seek to better grasp their own abilities, Earth’s Chaotics will soon find themselves in the crossfire of returning threats and old heroes. These superpowered Earthians may not have chosen this path through life, but it will still be up to them to determine if history remembers them — to determine if history remembers the saga of the Keys. Return of Chaos is a direct sequel to Chosen Chaos, which begins the Key Saga novel series. Be sure to read Chosen Chaos first, to understand the plot and the characters thus far! Additionally, the Key Saga as a whole takes place 20 years after Rise. You will not need to read Rise to understand the events of Return of Chaos, however the latter will spoil many of the events that occurred in Rise, due to the simple chronology of taking place later in the timeline.
