《Harmony: An Assassins Tale》Chapter 49 : Demon Support
Advertisement
"Wait, are you serious Hazen? You are getting married?" and he smiled, something I almost never saw. "Yes! I am, why isn't this great!" and I almost forgot about what Hazen was before I met him, a sad looking boy, always looking down, now seems to be happy once. I knew this wasn't the time to congratulate them, because of what was occuring at the moment. Trine arrived at the scene, but she already knew about the engagement. "Actually I influenced them, it seemed interesting, they have.... chemistry." and I looked at her, then Hazen, then her again. I couldn't tell what was the influencing words, but I can guess why it had happened. "Anyways, all this aside, we have been able to successfully defend Heaven, but sadly, Raizel got what he wanted, the Kagayaku Kyu. From our... meeting, I've learned that first off, we are destined to fight on the 800th KiJi, whatever that is, and that he is going for the Kurai Kyu next, located in the Demon Dimension, which is most likely his next target, so we are to prepare to support our Demon brethern." and Trine seemed intrigued . "The 800th KiJi? I haven't heard that word in a while, Kiji that is. I can explain it to you , if you want that is." and I put my hands together
"Go on, Trine." and Juni fell on Hazen's lap. "Ehm.. anyways, the KiJi is the universal calender, so, the 800th KiJi as in the 800th day of the Kiji, is when this destined day is supposed to happen. Originally, the Kiji calender was going to be implemented in every dimension, but since the Gregorian Calender was implemented in the Earth Dimension before, we decided to follow that as well, but for our respective locations. Now, a brief explanation of KiJi is when all the dimensions make a full orbit around the center of each dimension, The Traffic, or Void (most commonly known) . Seemingly, The Void/Traffic is a big blackhole, which has sucked everything into it, except the dimensions, as they were too large. Each of these dimensions had there own seperate giant atmosphere, which prevented the planets from in it to enter the Void, but the Dragon Dimension is the closest link to it, as half of the Dragon Dimension has been sucked into The Traffic. According to Earth's time, one KiJi is around 9.8 million years, so on the 7.84th Billion year , is when the 800th Kiji is to occur, well, in theory anyways, because KiJi is always changing, so , in about 5 years from now on, on 27th April, it should occur, The Fated Kiji. " I was still intrigued into what this was, but everyone seemed bored of it, so I ignored it for a later time.
"Alright, alright! Wake up all of you! It is time we take action!" and Hui, who had fallen asleep on my lap, woke up, drooling. "Okay, okay, just 10 more minutes, mom." and she went back to sleep, on my lap once again. Hazen was awake, and he simply nudged Juni. "Sweetheart, wake up, we have to go now." and she woke up , slowly. "Oh, okay, so, what are we doing, Johnny?" she said, half-awake. I asked Trine to do something, and in a snap, they all woke up . "Trine~Dono! How many times did I tell you not to do that. I won't be able to fall asleep now!" Hui said, a bit angry. I calmed down, and said. "Okay, I need you three to join me while we go to the Demon Dimension. Trine will stay here, because the flugres have just recently stabilized. Are you ready? Pack your stuff, let's go!" and they went, bored out of there mind, because they had to fight once again. After two hours, they were ready, with everything they wanted. I gathered some information, and that was about all I needed, Yagrik supplies me with pretty much anything. "Yoshi! Let's go!" I said, and we went to the portal room.

"Okay, okay, Demon Dimension. Ahh, there it is!" and I spoke the words and we started the Jump. "Ahh, this feels so nostalgic, I haven't jumped in a while!" Juni said, while we went in our Bus. Since it was a small group, I went for a more small but quick Bus. We saw The Void's center, which was a massive black ball, which continuously consumed the light from the Dimensions. "So that's the black hole, IE the center of the dimensions." and Juni nodded. "Yes, according to Trine~Sama , anyways." and I noticed another group going towards the Demons. "God Damnit! I didn't think Raizel would've prepared this quick! But still, seeing the size of its Bus, it'll probably take 2 or 3 days, that is plenty of time for our plan to occur." and Hui looked at me. "What plan? You didn't tell us!" and she stomped her feet. "Now, now, Hui! I didn't tell you because you would've slept through it." and that seemed reasonable enough for her. I already knew what I was going to do after all this, ever since I noticed Jennifer.
We managed to enter the Demon Dimension. It was more advanced than I imagined. Those people from the Demon Dimension weren't joking, not at all. I'm going to study on this later, I thought to myself. When we first entered, it was a more automatic system, which required a passcode, and had Bots guarding it, so I knew that the Demons were most likely in a population decrease, and that there number was few. I felt a quick kick in my rift. While everyone went asleep due to the journey, I decided to check on what it was. "Hey! What's wrong here?" and Mikasa threw something at me. "It's so small here! Make it bigger!" she kept on whining, but I sighed. "You were the one who said you wanted to be my familiar, and you were the one who went into my rift to begin with, but alas, I shall listen." and I increased the size of my rift, which was seemingly difficult, guess that this personal space worked on a totally differenet basis then most things, I'll learn about this eventually. "Next time, if you want something, send me a message, rather than causing pain, you do know you can talk to me directly via telekenisis, it's apart of our agreement anyways." and she looked up, and said, "Oh, of course! I didn't forget about that or anything..." and she bluffed, and forcibly closed my rift, and I sighed.
"What was that about?" Hui said, awake , being annoying as usual. "Oh, nothing. Wake up the others." and she noticed that Juni and Hazen were cuddling eachother. "Gross! Onee~Sama! Wake up!" and she woke up. "Ugh.. I don't feel so good, how long have I been asleep?" and I said, "5 hours, we have been wasting time! I already opened the doors, and disabled the bots , so no worries." and Hazen sighed. "Well, that's good." and he charged forwards, which I thought he would've done, so I rigged a small pot to hit him when he entered, and he simply dodged it. "Come on Johnny, I may act childish, but I'm always on guard," and I totally forgot he was the Lord, he just doesn't seem so... wealthy. We entered into the headquarters of the Demon Dimension, ignoring the urban location, which Hazen and Hui wanted to go to so badly, because they saw billboards of food . Juni was the only one who didn't stray from the path, but she did drag Hazen. "Come on! We have to got his way." and he started whining. "B..bb...but food!" and when I took Hui, she started crying. "I WANT FOOD!" and I sighed, and setup a quick kitchen and started making food, with Yagrik. After another wasting of 30 minutes, I managed to feed Hui, but I can tell we have been spotted, due to the smoke that arised by the flames . "This food is great and all, but I think we should go now," Hui said, with a stuffed mouth. I agreed with her, but since I knew she was going to take her time, I took out Unis, and transformed it into a magical carpet. I took Hui, Hazen, and Juni, and threw them up on Unis, and patted its back. "Unis! Go to 89.32.41 X-09 , Y-881.2 Z-32.52 , and it went to the co-ordinates, extremely quickly. The guards had arrived, but they weren't caught in the crossfire.

"Time to see how tough you guys are," and these hard-coded bots didn't seem to react to my words, but said something else, in a more robotic voice. "Target-Z09-21 aquired, Mission: Apprehend and kill Targets Z09-21, Z09-22, Z09-23, and Z09-29." and I guessed the other 3 were us. It called two more robots, and we fought. I knew how coding worked, so it was a simple task to reprogram them, and rather than killing me, they had a new set of parameters, "Serve Z09-21 , and listen to his commands," and they answered without question, and I managed to get the required details, and also managed to erase our presence from the system, which still made us unanimous, thankfully.
I then went to were I dropped off Hui,Juni, and Hazen, which was a storage shed in the headquarters, the details I managed to snatch from a group of demons walking by, chatting. "How was that, did Unis treat you well?" and Hazen seemed half-dazed, and Hui, fully. Juni however, was normal, cleaned her shirt, and said, "It is a fast one, I'll say that," and that made Unis feel better, and he dispersed himself back into my rift. "Okay, from the robots, I managed to find the directions to the Control room, so follow me." and they followed me, and I took them towards the control room.
There, I saw a woman talking to a man who was seemingly the brains behind the robots. I then told them to wait outside, and then took the intiative , and went inside, The door was locked, but the woman seemed to leave, so, as to hide our presence, I made Yagrik make a layer of Kakushinuno (HIdden Cloth), and watched her. She went to the room which was pretty close to the control room, and the plate read out, "Skieans Office" . Hazen knew her, so I asked him to give her a call, and to say something weird, to make her think we have bad connection. I already hijacked there wifi, so it was no problem. He was about to call her, when Skiean called him, instead. "Pick it up." I urged, and he did, I couldn't hear what she said, but he said, "Y..e... you... need... ramen?" and I facepalmed. "Really man?" I mouthed. He simply shrugged, and Skiean fell for the bait. He then said that we are trying to hack into the Wifi, that about it, and asked her to open her office door, and she did just that.
When we entered, I heard a voice, which reminded me of the incident with Raizel . "Welcome, To Skien~Dono Humble Abode," it said. I then told her why we came here, and asked if there was a spare room for Hazen and the others, else they would be bored to hell by what I was about to tell her. She gave them a room, and I started to explain everything , my plans, and all that.
After telling her, she seemed a bit confused about it herself, but she understood. She then left to grab something, and I was so tired, I couldn't help myself but sleep, I hadn't slept for 3 days, so it was normal for me to sleep. I woke up, and saw myself on a comfortable matress, with a blanket and a pillow, and the voice had returned, this time, only I heard it.
Johnny, how are you doing? Are you prepared? I notice that Mikasa isn't with us, that's saddening, no matter, tell me, you need any help with anything?
"Yes, I do, I want to understand more about this '800th Kiji' and your, well, our connection with the Kurai Kyu, Kagayaku Kyu, and the 800th Kiji." and his tone changed.
My boy, you are still to young to understand such things. You first must prepare yourselves. I hope ... Hell-Version Cyclops explained to you what your goal is?
"I remember, I have to increase my power, to 10% of Wellington~Sama was it? May you please explain this to me?"
Oh boy, it is not time yet, all will be clear at The Day of Reckoning, the 800th KiJi, it is a very important day for me, and for you. That has been your destiny since you were born, that's why you are so smart, why you are different from others, why you see things other can not, why you feel which others can not, I will explain later, when I have returned back to my body. I can't retain this form much longer, I will be leaving. All will be clear soon.
I tried to call back to the voice, but it didn't respond to me at all. I felt like my hopethisis was getting closer and closer, and then I realized that Mikasa was gone, so I looked around . The room we were given, the control room, the office, I couldn't find her. Then I saw a room, that had a plate saying, 'Skieans home, DO NOT ENTER' but I entered. In there I saw her sleeping on the ground, with Mikasa on the bed, murmuring something about Kami~Sama and Satan. "Wake up Mikasa! Why did you leave, again?" and she woke up, and rubbed her eyes. "Oh, oh... it was uncomfortable there, I feel better here, and can you stop staring at me, please?" and I felt embarrased, even though I didn't mean to look at her , like that. When Skiean woke up and saw me, she through a pillow at me. "The hell are you doing here! Can't you see the sign? I already told Nium so don't worry!" and she started mumbling something I couldn't clearly tell.
I then woke up Hui, Juni and Hazen, and then started making breakfast. They came out after 30 minutes, all of them very sleepy. I made everyone a cup of coffee, and gave them a simple breakfast: two toast, scrambled egg, bacon on the side, and ground beef . "It is good, eat it." and they all took it. When Hui took a bite of it, her eyes opened fully, and she loved it. She started gobbling it up, and in 2 minutes flat, she asked for seconds, and I sighed.
Nium then rushed into the control room, and said. "We have a problem, Skiean~San, they are here, and we are only half prepared, these are so detailed!" and I sighed. I stood up, and said, "Come with me Hazen, let us stall them for the time being, so that the rest can be made, how much time will it take, Nium?" and he said it, plain and flat. "We need two hours, minimum, and maximum 8, if you are with us, it will be accelerated by a lot." I then sighed once more, and called out Yagrk, and created a single, Perfect clone, taking all of Yagrik, which had 80% of my brain's capacity, I still don't have mine big enough for a pure clone. I told the clone to accompany Hazen, and I stayed in the control room, and started the coding. "We use a mixture of Python,Javascript, and atom. I hope you understand these well enough," and I smiled, "Heh, I learned all these by heart when I was 7, this is going to be a piece of cake." and it took me 3 hours to get it prepared, but to run it, took more time. It was time for us to defend the demons. "Let's go!" I said, and we all walked out, watching the terrain change, to what I had changed it too. I didn't debug it, because I trusted in my abilities.

Incursions
This blurb concerns Incursions book 1: Incarceration. If you could buy superhuman abilities, but they might kill you—or worse—would you do it? Ten years ago, in a world not so different from our own, people with powerful abilities appeared. The new powers were dangerous, dangerous to acquire—dangerous to have—dangerous to wield. World governments raced to find and eradicate the abilities and those who possess them while using the media to rule by fear. Whereas corporations sought to exploit the abilities for profit. Raz Owens was living the dream - a rising star at a job he enjoys, a girlfriend he loves, but it all comes crashing down when Raz disregards his late father's advice. He is pulled into a chaotic underworld of clandestine labs, shadow organizations, and super-powered criminals. Used as a human test subject in a place where few survive the day, he must last long enough to escape. His only advantage? A power that seems nearly useless—a heads-up display. Contains: monsters, violence, death, dismemberment, gamelit, superpowers, superpower consequences, good guys, bad guys, good guys who might be bad guys, bad guys who think they are good guys, good guys that might go bad, bad guys that might turn good, guns for hire, competence, incompetence, continence, incontinence, conspiracies, and some of what I just said wasn't true. This story is written in third person limited POV. That means you can expect to know many of the thoughts and inner dialog of one character, and only see the actions of other characters. This POV does include scenes without the main character, and thus the reader can and will know things the main character does not. Further, this means characters act on what they know, which is almost always less than the reader knows. Something else to know. These books do not hold your hand. If you're reading it and thinking "Gosh, why aren't 'they' doing some 'obvious' thing." Bad news. You probably missed something that explains exactly that. If you're seeking a light read that doesn't ask much of you as the reader, you're invited and very welcome to come on in, but this might not be the story for you.
