《Tails of life》Chapter 24
Advertisement
"This just in are monsters real? there a hundred of videos online about a man holding a light and people turning into the monster we now go live to the scene." But the camera never switched over. "It appears we are having technical issues" "wait I'm getting something from the newsroom ok yes but sorry it appears to be a hoax we now return to the television program."
With that, we turned it off "what happened?" "MID stepped in" they can do that holy hell. "Anyways let not this ruin our day we need to train Jeff." For the rest of the day, we all worked with Jeff to get his telekinesis strengthened as the was sunsets dad came home. "I'm home" welcome home dad is this over "I'm afraid not it seems the same thing happened everywhere at the same time."
What is going to happen now "well the school has been canceled for tomorrow we are calling it teachers day that should let it die down quicker." But humans have seen monsters now it's all over the internet "son there is always stuff like that on there we just make it sound fake in the comments." If you say it alright then I guess it will be. "Now if I'm not mistaken you two have your first-day work together tomorrow."
After dinner, we went to bed. When the morning came the panic from yesterday was still fresh on the internet people started to come up with ways to find who is a monster. The running theme is to ask someone three questions and if they hesitate then they are a monster. The questions are one what does a human taste like, two how many claws does a werewolf have, and three does a dragon just breathe fire? As we close the computer Jeff and I when downstairs after reading all posts online. "I can't believe the church did that would it not expose their monster as well" "yes but they can pass them off holy creatures unlike a werewolf or a dragon."

Morning "morning" I heard you two talking do we know why the church did this "we don't know much but from the contact we have in the church they want to bring all monsters out in the open but for what we don't know." What about Erin do we know anything about him "we did not ask sorry."
As everyone comes in "so now that everyone is here I have news from MID I light of yesterday's incident all monsters that have to go out are to travel in pairs and no one is to be out after eight o'clock PM." But what about our jobs "just talk to your boss and see if you can get out by seven."
I guess I could ask we all had breakfast the news came on "breaking news now this just in a video was sent into the station and has been authenticated some of the images may be graphic for some viewers we will play it now." In the video, it shows a werewolf holding a human in his clawed as it cuts his stomach and it gets blurred out after that it goes back to the anchors "that was very unsettling I can believe this is real."
As dad stands up he pulls out his phone and calls work the news anchor looks like they are getting a message "we are sorry lady and gentlemen but it seems it was another hoax video." "Hey who are you someone call the police." As we looked at the TV men in white priest robes with hooded came in with some people tied up "Good morning on this holy day" the minute Hoshi, mom, and I heard that voice we knew who it was.
Erin! "today the church will show the world the power of God by revealing the unholy beast that lives with us" as an angel steps in front of the camera he holds out an orb of light as I glow brighter the illusion around on of the people goes down "there you see humans a monster was here the whole time" as the Male anchor looks over at her. "Esmond that monster I saw on the news" the other started to speak "no this can't be real your not a monster are you?"

The female monster brings her wings to her face and starts to cry. "Well this is the end of our program as he makes a golden spear and walks toward her then the guy stands in front of her "I don't know what is going on here but you will not hurt her I may not know what's going on here but she is my friend no matter what she is as he turns his head to look at her. "Fine if you like this unholy creature then die with it" as he goes to stab him the female monster grabs her co-anchor and teleports away.
"Well, this is a surprise I only wanted to show the world monster are real I did not expect to find love anyways if you think someone is a monster give the church a call and we will rain holy judgment down on them." As they left the tv went dark what the hell does this mean "we all need to be extra careful now."
As the rest of the day went on Jeffrey got better at his telekinesis but you could tell he was scared but I think everyone is now "Esmond I'm scared to go home" I know but you have to sooner or later your parents are probably scared too.
As the day went on it was time for Jeff and me to go to work. Dad drove us because it was on his way to work "so Mr.Morrow what is going to happen now?" "Well, Jeff I really don't know nothing like this has happened in our lifetime just be careful that all I can say for now."

Dimensional Descent
The Third Dimension is collapsing. The Fourth Dimension is descending.
8 616The Loyal Ones [Dark Biopunk Fantasy]
TLDR; A slave monster survives horror, war and servitude, while trying to live with himself. Thralls are a race of monstrous slave soldiers, in a universe where biological magic takes the place of technology. Centuries ago, their ancestors were desperate humans, who volunteered to be transformed for the Poison War. Today their unfortunate descendants are still soldiers and laborers. In contract law they are 'corporate wards'; slaves owned largely by arms dealers. Dally Harper starts this story as a champion cage fighter. He is one of the 'lucky' ones. It's all downhill from there. Content Warning: Explicit violence and gore, slavery, implied sexual assault. None of these are framed as positive or glorified, however they do have a strong impact on the plot and main characters.
8 178Hellfire Across the Heavens
Three centuries of FTL space travel has spread the people of Terra far across the stars and for nearly half a millennia people have asked the question, "are we alone in the universe?" The answer to that question is a resounding no. To one side, humanity is boxed in by an ancient empire whose light has burned up long ago. To the other, is a federation of alien races known as the Senate. Mankind rejoiced the knowledge that they were not the only life in a cold dark galaxy. But as first contact was made, ET's who transited into the Warp seemed to disappear without a trace, technologies traded with the other races malfunctioned or refused to work entirely, and simple translation errors led to grave misunderstandings. Before long, humanity was outcasted by the Senate and relationships soured, but even still the sons and daughters of Terra worked hard to earn the respect and trust of the Xeno's.
8 125Demon Blade
Ryuken is your average 15-year old high schooler, living his life in an ordinary way, until he comes across a mysterious katana and is pulled into the world of unbelievable supernatural.An anime-inspired passion project of mine, sparked from my childhood love of shounen anime. I have big plans for this world but we'll see if I get to stick around long enough to finish it.Enjoy! Notes: 1. My writing style is mostly script-like with some 3rd person-ish narrative sprinkled in, and it is VERY dialogue-heavy. 2. It can be pretty slow, as I tend to focus more on characters rather than action. 3. Since the story is set in Japan with Japanese characters, I will be using Japanese honorifics whenever the characters are interacting with each other. To learn more about Japanese Honorifics, you can go to this website here. I apologize if I used them wrongly, or if I forgot to use them from time to time, or if it turns you off. 4. I don't have a fixed release schedule as I don't have time to write regularly at the moment. I may update tomorrow or next year. Who knows. I'm like your dad who's gone to the store for some milk. I'll be back. Cover Source
8 178[NaNoWriMo] The Mortal God's Melancholy
Meeting a wouded person overnight to being trudged in a battle that will decide who the God of gods will be, Kaellum Wright becomes the new god, Vixalis, replacing the forgotten minor god of the four seasons. Sent to a world where Gods battle their hearts out for surpemacy. Will he emerge victorious, becoming God by force, will he fall before them in disgrace, or will he choose his own destiny. ----- 3500-4000 words per chapter. Don't worry about it making sense. If it doesn't when you expected one, then I am sorry. Awkward plot, forgive me. I had a really late start. Terribly sorry for those seeking a really great story, character, and plot. I made this to let my imagination run wild, no matter how irritating it might get, but I'll still accept criticism, it'll serve as a good teacher for the future. It's just something to make in my free time, that and the contest itself. Hope you still enjoy it though! :) Credits to Deadheadz for the great cover art! :)
