Chapter 8- “Weekend”
1.5
“Disaster Provoked”
Side Takoshi(Tithi)
While I was humming a catchy tune on my way to the plaza, an explosion was heard nearby and the pressure of the wind can be felt from here.
“What the heck was that?” I jumped high and saw flames around the plaza,
“It’s nearby plaza! Something is going on there, I better get going” I landed and ran at full speed at the place. I heard screaming when I almost arrived, along the way a rock was thrown at me and I punched it away.
“The hell?! What threw that?” Arrived at the place many bystanders ran outside of the plaza and I saw Jia Cheng fighting a large being.
“Takoshi!” I turned around and Kotora was severely injured,
I took Kotora in both of my arms and carry her to a safe place“Hey your bleeding! What is Cheng fighting with?”
“Can’t really tell, it kept disappearing and reappearing” Kotora Replied
“Are the others okay?”
“I don’t know where they went”
I stood up and gave Kotora bandages from my bag “Alright get healed and if your done find the others, I will take care of this” I walked away from Kotora and went to Jia Cheng.
“Cheng!” I jumped and catched Jia Cheng when he was thrown away, Cheng was bleeding and badly injured,
“Dude you okay?!” I laid down Jia Cheng at a wall,
“ (Cough) tch! That monster, me,Paiz couldn’t handle it and Saher just went somewhere” Jia Cheng stood up slowly “I will settle this once and for all” I pulled him down at the wall and told him,
“No, rest… your hurt” I gave Jia Cheng my bag with a white cloth, “Use that to cover your wounds”
“S-Sure but how about you?”
“Me? Well I will be fine” I replied and jumped away from Jia Cheng confronting the beast in the smokes in front of me,
“Hey come out before I go omae wa mou shinderu on ya” No voice nor sound was heard when I screamed then I lay out my hand towards the being standing there, a small ball of energy slowly appearing.
“This should settle it…. Chi blast” I fired the energy ball straight at it before it even hit the energy ball was deflected away exploding the glass ceiling above, thousands of little pieces of sharp glass fell,

“Your no ordinary monster heh what a day to spend a weekend” Then smokes started to clear exposing the body and face of the monster Sharp Eyes like a hawk, long claws, hundreds of spikes on his body and gills?
{Reaper Bipedal
Age: ?? Height: 35 meters
Feat: Live in the depths of the lake an ancient awake, Bipedal is the reaper of the sea with thousands of spikes on his body to protect none sea creatures came dare to attack, the Reaper Bipedal is the commander of the sea eating the lives of living beings to grow stronger, the maximum height it can contain is 55 meters it breaths in land and water, it can disappear for a brief moment to swiftly attack its prey}
“Humans…..” the Bipedal spoke,
“Yeah?” I replied,
“You are the source of internal damage to the land and water, you all will be disposed from the world and the creatures below and above soon shall rise to take over your world, the lords our devil will soon show us the way humans soon will be our slaves the end will come-“
I interrupted the talk “Yeah Yeah take over the world, eat us and this that blah blah, can we start this?”
The Bipedal disappeared winds of attacks hit me several times and the last blow sent me flying upwards,
“Fools to think you can defeat the commander of the sea, i hold the second strongest strength of the sea. a full strength of mine can even destroy a city alone along with you humans with it!”
"Sure...." I appeared in front of the Bipedal, “Sup, great attack you talk big for someone your size..haha get it? Big Size?? hahaha”
"Perish from the surface of the earth!" the Bipedal started to glow from his eyes and shoots out red beams, i dodged it smoothly from above and flew down at the Bipedal and punched the Bipedal away leaving a large hole mark on the body of the Bipedal, it coughed out green acids.
“You will Pa-“I didn’t even bother to let it finish his sentence and punched it again to the sky,
“Talking to much gave me an ear bleed but you’re an annoyance. See you soon I guess” from the ground I shot my small energy chi ball once again and direct hit on the Bipedal causing a huge Explosion exploding the Bipedal to pieces.

“Guess that’s that” I went over at where Jia Cheng was laying down but as soon as I got there most of my friends were gathered outside ambulance and other polices and firemen arrived at the place,
“Takoshi You’re alright!” Kotora exclaimed,
“Glad you’re alright Takoshi, our wounds are already healed by the doctors. How was the monster?” Jia Cheng asked
“That monster was okay but it said something about the world being controlled by something something” I replied “Either way my clothes is still okay but some of you got it messed up anyway Saher what were you fighting anyway?”
“Well Long story short, there are also another monster nearby while me,Atari and Luke were walking along the alleyway and I got to tell you Luke fighting was incredible” Saher explained,
“Luke can fight?” I asked
Luke walked over to me with a depressed look “So you think I look like a bit thin doesn’t mean I can fight right?”
“N-No not at all, how about Kouda where is she?”
Everyone looked around but Kouda was not here,
“Shoot! I think she is still in the Plaza!” Jia Cheng replied,
Then a voice was heard behind all of us, “umm actually, I am here” all of us looked behind and Kouda was standing looking fine,
“Huh? How did you get here?” Atari asked
“Well it was you guys fault for leaving me behind, I tried to follow one of you but you didn’t even notice me so I wanted to look for you guys but I got missing so I went to the police! You guys are mean!” she started crying
“It was Jia cheng’s fault! Let’s all blame the tanned man” I told all of them,
“Yeah!” all of them said including Jia Cheng who was clueless,
“Yeah!...... Wait what?!” Jia Cheng looked at me then Kouda stared at Jia Cheng,
“(Stares and Looked away,) Meanie…” Kouda Said in a small voice,
Jia Cheng glared at me and chased me, all of us laughed then our weekend ended.
I walked back home and kept thinking about the incident with the Bipedal earlier,
“*End? What end could it have meant? Maybe more monsters coming? * well I was hoping for actions but It could be more dangerous in this society considering the slowly appearance of each of them, meh I couldn’t care less I will hope for something stronger anyway”

Side Narrative
Takoshi arrived home and when the door was opened, Imouto was the one opened the door and saw Takoshi without clothes.
“Umm Brother, what the heck happened to you?” Imouto asked then followed by Hinari who just went out of her room
“You looked terribly injured!”
“Uh no not even close to that Hinari, well earlier when I walked home…”
*Flashback*
At the road before Takoshi almost reached his home, he was blasted by a large fire behind and a small being with fire all over its body appeared from the shadows.
“(a weird laugh)KreKreKre! So you’re the one that defeated our commander?! Heck that commander was always weak not even you can survive my flames of death, i should have been the commander!” The being then walked away before it could escape Takoshi patted its head from behind and the being turned around feared, seeing Takoshi horridly glared at the monster.
“Going somewhere?” Takoshi asked
“EEEK!!!” Takoshi smashed its body to the ground once and it sent the being straight down the ground downwards,
“Seriously a surprise attack of all time? Good thing I protect my bag and your not even suite to be a commander anyway, oh yeah thanks for the heat i needed it outside these nights are cold”
*Present*
“And yeah that’s it, now I am gonna go to shower and getting ready for school tomorrow today was a great weekend” Imouto and Hinari was questioned,
“Oh yeah Hinari and Imouto I bought you both a gift for each, here” Takoshi gave both Hinari and Imouto a different gift,
Imouto got a new Console and a game Pocket Monster Ultra,
Hinari got a new brown shirt, a small yellow monster hairpin.
Both of them thanked Takoshi,
“Thanks for the Game Brother it’s what I needed! And Hinari seemed cheerful for her gift too!”
“Yeah I am, thanks big brother”
“No problem you both, well now I gotta get a shower” Takoshi replied and went to the bathroom.

The Dawn of Blood
As the saying goes, "Ignorance is bliss." That is a good way to describe us. We are constantly seeking to improve, to evolve. Coming up with laws and theories to better understand the world around us. But what if it was all for naught. What if what we think is truth is nothing more than the actions of higher beings, far beyond our reach. Upon the discovery of an entire new reality, remaining ignorant is certain death. The only way to live is to grow, to evolve, to adapt. This is my first novel so any feedback and criticism is greatly appreciated. I hope that I'm able to grow as a writer through this and hope that people enjoy my work. Credit for the cover image goes to Richard Luong. Check him out at https://tentaclesandteeth.deviantart.com.
