《Shadow’s World》contest part 2
Advertisement
I can understand Isis not caring about him but everyone else. Hercules and Goldfish should know that the other two kids don’t have a chance in winning this fight, but they aren’t rooting for my boy. Wait, is no one interest in this fight? But how can that be, Anasnai and Isis have gathered everyone to this event? They even got creatures that were comatose and woke them up for this fight. At least there were a few people cheering for him. His friends that Anasnai bought with them. This crowed is going to be hard to win over, but I know Alexander can do it. Now for the next brat. “For Alexander’s opponent, we got Wilfred the boring little kid.” There were a few cheers here and there. The boy looks around and is surprised he got those cheers. He gives his little fan base a wave. “I wish my disciple had more confidence. I, a mighty dragon, trained him.” The black dragon digs through his mouth with his teeth. “Hey shadow, why didn’t you tell the audience that my boy has the biggest salamander on record, for his age?” The black dragon asks me with a glare. Oh, does this stupid dragon dare glares at me? With one flick of my finger, I cause the dragon to slam his head on the desk. “I said nothing about it because it doesn’t matter. Alexander is going to win this fight in less than 3 minutes and that stupid spider and the rabbit are going to eat their words.” I smirk as the dragon rose his head.
“Shadow, get on with it, my little girl is waiting to be announced.” Isis jump on the table and was tapping her foot on it. Why is she so impatient? Ok, ok, I will announce the last one. “For the last of my progeny, I give you Wendelin.” The crowded burst with an applause. Out of the corner of my eyes, I saw Anansi put on some ear muffs on the side of his head. He is a spider but loves acting like a human. I was wondering why he put them on. I could never expect that she have gain so much support over the years. Her brother knew this was going to happen. He put his fingers in his ears. What did I miss? “So, how do you like my little girl now? Humph!” Isis speaks to me through my mind. “Instead of only paying attention to Alexander. You have missed the development of these two gems. Anansi picked them for a reason.” I ignored her. “That is my disciple down there. How does it look, Blackie? Doesn’t she drew in a crowd? Wait, you guys like being in the shadow of greatness? How does it feel?” The white dragon pulls in the black dragon by its neck. “I can’t believe I have to say this again. Being in the shadows is better than burning bright and fading quickly. Don’t worry about my disciple, but make sure yours don’t burn out to quickly.” The black dragon turns towards me. “That goes for Alexander.” I roll my eyes and ignore both stupid dragons.

“Start!” With that one announcement, the salamander shoots a huge fire ball at Alexander. I feel bad for the boy he has such a poor match up with Alexander. I doubt he is going to be any use in this fight. Alexander with one swing of his hand causes the fireball to spit into two and fall beside him. “Boo! Where is the explosion? I wanted to see an explosion.” There were members of the audience that want an explosion. What do they think this is a movie or something?” Why would fire cause an explosion? I turn to Isis and say, “Everyone that was looking for an explosion should be forced to take a bunch of different science classes. They should know better than this.” She nods her head in agreement. “And right off the back Wifred sends a message to Alexander. Who attack first wins the fight.” Hercules said into the mic. Oh yeah, we are supposed to be commentating on the match. “Oh Blackie disciple, launch the first attack. But my disciple is running head first into battle.”

As the battle is starting, I’m getting a bad feeling. The shadow is rooting hard for Alexander, but the other two seem to be up to something. Why did they easily agree to the 5 minutes? I can sense they are both as powerful as me, but the boy has a tremendous disadvantage. This fight would easily be over in less than 3 minutes, so why did those two take the bet? Let’s look back at what we know.
The Shadow Pov
I’m surprise the boy isn’t doing half bad. Alexander has tried to bait him a few times, but he refuses to take the bait. He knows Alexander is waiting for his attack. He is stuck sitting back and watching his sister brutally beating. It must be tough, but I have to handle to him for not attacking. The dragons trained these two well, but it is all for naught. The little girl tries to pull a little trick, but it backs fire hard on her. Wait! “What in the world was that!?” I angrily yells at Isis and Anansi. “Are you two trying to cheat in helping them win?” Isis scuffs. “If we have cheated, you would have flown into the arena and stop the fight right there and then. You refuse to watch their growth and now look at them. Do the audience seems surprise by what happens? Look around the only people that is surprised by what has happen is you, Alexander, and his friends.

The Life of an Undercover Conqueror at Specialized High School
2093 ADEarth's natural resources have been depleted. We Humans could survive only just for a few years. We became desperate, we search and search for new resources for us to exploit, but we never found them. Until someone thought of something. "The society of the past even though they had different problems, they must have an answer to their conundrum. Perhaps we can use them too." We continue our research, nights and days have passed, however all of our research only lead to one thing and one thing only the Philosopher's Stone. It could generate energy without having to take any energy. Basically, it broke The Laws of Thermodynamic and Einstein's Law Conservation of Mass Energy, no, all the rule and law that we know of, doesn't apply to the Philosopher's Stone. But how? Where can we found this crimson colored gem? 2094 ADWe the researchers at the Genesis Lab finally found our answer. The Philosopher's Stone is not a Gem or any other precious mineral. It is an Organism, that can replicate itself perpetually. Our greedy minds have already started thinking of various thing especially about 'how can we abuse this poor thing' kind of thought. We can feed them to livestock. Additionally the excrement of those livestock can be used as a fertilizer. Voila! Infinite food and oxygen. But still, we don't know where to find this crimson colored life-form. Spring 2095 ADWE FINALLY DID IT!When we are deciphering some sort of ancient text related to the Mayans, we found out about where it was and how can we obtained it. The method that ancient people used seems to utilize human sacrifice as an offering to Gods. But hey, now we know that Gods exist, and more importantly Their whereabouts. If the ancient people used human sacrifice as the toll to open the portal. Then, we the modern people could simply use some sort of mini-sized black hole with specific coordinate to force this hidden life-form come to this world. Fundamentally, we just needed to mimic the portal that Gods himself open to answer their offering. Allright, let's do this. Summer 2095 ADEverything is progressing as we wanted.Every trivial thing on our side seems to be working in order.We can commence the operation 'Child's Play' early next year.-LB-
