《The Land of the Unknown》Episode 23 (Part 2)
Advertisement
Deep within the dark and stormy skies, a sky fortress appeared in ruins. Kira took Tommy’s body toward the place as she waited for Aehaby and others.
From the corner of her eyes, she could witness the loch ness monster rise out from the sides of the ruins. Aehaby stood on top of the beast with her hands on her hips. Stels and Papeht stood next to her and also gave out some nasty glares at Kira.
“Oh hi, fancy seeing you here.”
“You know why I’m here. This feud all ends now; this is your final warning.” Aehaby warned her. “Give back the boy’s body or else.”
“Of course not, but I’d like to see you try!”
Kira blasted out some dark magic firing at the group, but the loch ness fired out a laser with its breath to block it off while the other three jumped off the monster and landed on the ground.

After Aehaby had pulled off an impressive landing, Kira used the Earth gem to summon the field to move at a quick pace. Aehaby looked down below her feet. She noticed a boulder being created out of the ground itself and booked it. She kept jumping off the stone to stone, trying to get back onto the battlefield. Giant rocks continued to appear as they chased down the group.
While getting distracted, Papeht and Stels rushed over to gang up on Kira. However, she had gotten the better of them and used magic to stop the guys from moving and made them hit each other a bunch of times before knocking them down to the ground. Reaching the edge, Papeht got stuck in a tight spot between a rock and more rocks. He and Stels looked and realized that more stones headed towards their view. The two rolled away to avoid the collision damage as the rocks crumbled into smaller pieces.

Kira then used the water gem to spread water onto the ground beneath their feet. Aehaby and the others grew confused at first, until Kira activated and turned the water to what of an ice rink. As Aehaby, Stels, and Papeht struggled to stay balanced on top of the ice, Kira swooped in no problem and laid a shocking punch to Papeht, which caused him to fly back. She teleported to another location to deal with the same amount of damage to Stels.
Next, Kira activated the wind gem to blow Aehaby and the guys away. Aehaby slid fast down the ice due to the steady gusts of winds. Before reaching the end of the road, she slammed her feet down into the ice before going off course.
Papeht held on to some columns and pillars beside the ruins while Stels tried to hold down on his balance but kept slipping, sliding, and heading toward the edge of the rubble. Aehaby extended her hand to grab him by the arm before he could fall off.
“Come on, Aehaby, just give it up!” Kira taunted.
The loch ness monster drew fire from its breath and unleashed it out on Kira. Kira saw it from the corner of her eyes and reflected it off with her deflective shield that she pulled out of thin air.
“Ha, you’ll have to do better than that if you want to beat—”
A force knocked Kira off to the ground as if she got pushed. She turned and saw Papeht standing from an angle.
“Oops, I guess that didn’t work.” He said playfully.
“You’re going to pay for that.”
Papeht stepped back and tried to run off. Kira jumped back on her feet and moved her hand to summon the fire gem.
However, nothing came out. Kira looked up and found it no longer in the slot as it was supposed to be.

She glanced at the gemstone bouncing off of the crown. Aehaby and Stels extended their arms as they tried to reach the jewel which came their way, as quickly as they could. Unfortunately, Kira used dark magic on the gemstone to levitate it over to her grasp once more.
“A-ha, now I got this again. Time to work my magic. Now, where were we?”
She grabbed the gemstone and tried to activate the fire gem to unleash upon the other group, but nothing would come out. Kira tried to shout out the name again, but still, it didn’t appear to be working.
“Why won’t this stupid thing work? I did everything I could too—”
“Looking for this?” A voice called out. Kira and Amy turned around to find Maggie there, who also had a red gem in her hands. “I had a feeling Antonio would double-cross us and take the jewel from us, so I had the fake one out in the open while keeping the real gem hidden away in my backpack.”
“What?”
“And now you’re going to get it!” Maggie used the gem for sprouting out fire from it.
Kira separated the inferno and made it go around her. She then spewed out lightning on the ground from near Maggie’s feet, causing a significant fire to erupt and grow. Maggie sucked the heat into the gemstone, Kira tried to rush over and punch her, but Maggie blocked the impact with the gem and pushed her back.
Before Kira could charge up another attack, Maggie walked over and stood with her head held high, and fists clenched.
She shouted, “Tommy, please, get out of there! We know you’re in there somewhere, you can’t give in like this!”
“What are you doing?” Aehaby asked. “Didn’t I tell you not to get in—?”
Kira couldn’t help but scoff at the remark. “Do you think that will work? Please...”
“Fight it off!” Antonio shouted from a distance. “If you can hear us, then I’m sorry! Just come back to us, please!”
“Antonio?”

Dark Matter
In the year 2023, scientists investigating the nature of dark matter caused a blackout throughout the entire world of Coranth. With this blackout came the appearance of supernatural and near-magical elemental abilities able to be wielded by all. By harnessing the dark matter in the environment, even ordinary humans now accessed powers that would have been deemed fantasy. These abilities include Wind, Fire, Lightning, Water, and Terra, being the five natural elements of which dark matter is absorbed by the planet itself. Additionally, the two moons orbiting Coranth offer the "Superior" elements of Dark and Light. The year is now 2041, and Dark Matter will follow the story of an adolescent boy named Raiden Sullivan in a dystopian future, 16 years old, eldest of 2, and son to Marcus Sullivan. Raiden is an intelligent young man belonging to a poor family with an absentee mother. He partakes in daily chores to cover living expenses after school and his home life is surrounded by his caring father and younger sister. In truth, this is my take on urban fantasy with slight LitRPG that keeps the "magic" elements somewhat scientific for a more realistic story. In using the dark matter surrounding our universe, humans can now harness elemental abilities as well as absorb dark matter from the beasts/monsters to further strengthen their abilities. For the most part, that'll be the main premise of the power system. Full transparency, this will be the first story I write and also the first story I publish, so please be patient with me. For some context, I'm an avid reader and after 4 or so years of only consuming, I feel that it might be time to try my hand at writing instead. Please feel free to add your opinions and criticism, it would be much appreciated. With that said, I hope you enjoy Dark Matter!
