《THRAK》Yours Is No Disgrace #1

The next day, 12:30 at the school Cafe.
“ Where's Syd? ”
“ He's talking to his colleagues on the phone at the back of the Cafe. He should be back in a minute.”
Jody sips the coffee, then continues.
“How about you? Are you really okay with Mickey?”
“ Not really. It's more like uncomfortable. We haven't talked that much.”
Sera sips her tea,
“ Firstly, I thought he would be some kind of emotionless, smart-act personality like those characters presented in many media.I'm a little surprised that he's more chilling than I thought. He's just a dude who wears glasses, you know.”
“ Well, don't stick up with what those books&Cartoons or manga or whatever represent this cliche type of glasses people to you. There's a lot of people out there who wear glasses but don't need to have that personality.”
Said Jody.
Sera then pointed out :
“ Yeah, but it comes to my mind. Why do authors always make the glasses guys look like a cold, silent-smart type all the time? What's wrong with them? I mean... I- I don't watch a lot of Anime-shows... But I can spot at least 10 characters who share all these same personalities. Like those authors run out of the idea, so they copy and paste the personality to their created character instead.”
“ I don't know. I assume it is the glasses itself is the symbol of intelligence? Like the characters who have more obvious Canine tooths, it shows that they're more likely to be aggressive people.”
Jody answers, she continues.
“ Or twin tails highschool woman? I heard they call this type of character
Tsundere.”
Sera twisted her eyebrows, she then asked.
“Bloody hell does that mean?”
“ Imagine you like a guy.”
“ Uh-huh”
“ But you act to him that you don't like him”
“ Huh?”
“ You show a gross towards him, talking shit to him, act in front of him as if he disgusts you.”
“.... What? Why? Aren't that very rude manners? And why the hell would I do that? Why don't confess to him or texting him?”
Sera questioned Jody's explanation which she thinks it's nonsense.
“ That's why they call her Tsundere.”
Said Jody.
“ Jody is that Sun-son ... Sun something popular in the eastern anime industry?”
“ Of course they are.”
“ Sigh ...Oh my god... What the hell?”
Sera slaps her forehead.
“ I mean...uh...uh...w-wouldn't she gets punched in the face if she keeps acting like that? And how the fuck are those guys going to know? I don't understand! I don't really understand their thinking process at all! If you like him, then you should confess to him! If you act like you hate him, he will really take it and never comes to you again. Aren't that a self destruct? Don't the guys getting annoyed or anything, really? I mean if I were the guy, I'll also get mad and never talk to her again.”
Sera said, she still goes on.
“ What are they thinking to create such kind of ironic characters out of the paper? I understand if you kinda reject when friends or anyone who ask you if you like that guy because of embarrassment. But acting so childish over him? Pfft-- that's very stupid.”
Sera takes a sip.
Suddenly, a boy's voice coming from her back.
“ I also don't understand why that type of character always comes up with twin tails hairstyle either.”

Sera and Jody turn around, He's Syd.
He then joins the table after finishing his business.
“ There's plenty of hairstyles over the world, but why twin tails? I hate rules, but you know what? Since we were a child, I don't allow Roxxy to have that kind of hairstyle. Like Never.”
Syd continues,
“ As a half Asian, I can at least confirmed that not all the eastern folks prefer that character, Sera. They also have the same thoughts as you. But the industry keeps pumping that kind of shit ass out the printing block anyway.”
“ You watch Japanese anime-show? ”
Asked Jody.
“ Yeah. I don't really watch only Japanese anime. I watch their movies too. All the media such as movies, Hollywoods, Sci-fi and so many of them. To be honest, some of the movies are even better than Hollywood.”
Syd takes a cup of tea and sips it.
“ hmm, this tea is so good. What is this?”
“ That's a black tea. My favorite.” Said Sera.
“ Syd, got any updates on the mission?”
Asked Jody.
Syd turns back into the serious mode.
“ Yes. The operation starts this evening. Looks like we have to go to the Roxy club to find about that Bett Moretz.”

[ Cut the scene to Syd Barrett house, evening: 18:00 ]
The big picture was shown on wide smart TV by connecting the Laptop through the Bluetooth.
The picture is Roxy Club, 3-5 Rathbone Pl, Fitzrovia, London W1T 1HJ, United Kingdom.
Roxxy standing next to the TV, the rest is on the sofa, listening to her.
Roxxy starts giving info:
“ This is the Roxy club. The place where Palmer Lake has claimed that he bought a pill through the middle man name Bett Moretz. We will be there by 21:00 pm and look for her. To avoid the suspect, there should be only 2 persons going in. And the other 4 will be waiting outside.”
“ Should I go in?” Toshi speaks out of sudden,
“ I can be Palmer Lake. It should make our job easier.”
He said.
“ Palmer said Bett Moretz only sells 1 pill per one person. How could we come up with excuses if you disguise as Palmer? Want to buy another one? I don't think so.”
Roxxy said.
“ hmm, ... How about sending Syd and Jody in there? They both look old enough to be over 18. They've fooled Palmer once.”
Mickey suggested.
“ Hmm, that's a good idea” said Roxxy.
“ Alright. I'll take it. Jody, you're in?” Syd turns to ask her.
“ Say no more.” Jody holds up her air-bullet, Smiling in confidence.
“ But I'm sure that there will be guards. Those are a pain in the ass. Toshi, you better go with them. But try to disguise as the guards. Can you do that?”
“ Understand, Roxxy." Toshi nods.
“I, Mickey, and Sera will stand-by outside the nightclub. Try to get her out through the backside to avoid any witnesses.”
“ Okay.”
“ And this mission, the above have confirmed. You guys all have executed authority. But Bett Moretz needs to be caught alive.”
“Allow killing anyone who gets in our way except Bett Moretz herself. Understand.”
Mickey nods.
“ Jody, let's go dress-up as some party animals.”
Said Syd.
“ Honestly, I don't like going to the night club but okay.”
She replied.
“ Me too. But a job is a job.”

He and Jody then went up the stairs to prepare themselves, leaving the other 4 downstairs.
“ Here, You need this.”
Sera turns her face to Mickey, seeing he's handing her a tiny pistol.
“ ?! ”
Sera startled. Because since she's born, she never touched a gun before.
“ What ...? ” She asked in a little shocked voice.
“ Never hold a gun before?”
Mickey asked.
“Y...Yeah..” She replies.
“ Hey, don't fucking do that, dude. She's a civilian, remember? It's hard for a normal person to suddenly hold a gun. Y'know what I'm saying?”
Toshi said to him.
“ Just in the case. Trust me you need this. Sure that we are the ability users, but not all abilities are faster than a bullet.”
Mickey explained.
“.... That's reasonable...” said Sera.
Sera receives a tiny pistol from him. Its size is smaller than her hand.
She then holds the gun tightly and uses her power on it.
“ How to use it? How can I reload? ”
Mickey then took it from her and demonstrate it. Then he gave it back to Sera.
She then takes the bullet off and put it on her hand.
“.... Hey, what are you doing?....” Toshi asked.
“ I'll create the bullets. So that I won't have to beg for your supplies.”
“ OH shit! That's right! With your power, we can have an infinite amount of supplies!! ”
Toshi realized.
“ And we can steal the disc without even have to take away the real one. That's what Syd said to me. Your ability is very useful. When the mission ends, and if we succeed. I guarantee that we will clear all the illegal trades you've made. Sera.”
Roxxy said.
“ R...Really???” Sera eyes widened.
Roxxy turns her face to her and asks:
“ Isn't that a fair trade?”
“ Yeah!... I..i mean... That's a fair trade....yeah.”
Toshi tackled Mickey's shoulder.
“ Hey, you don't have anything to say to Sera? ”
“ Nope.”
Mickey is still silent.
“ Bro, She's not a bad person as far as I observed yet you still build a wall between you and her?”
Mickey didn't reply.
“ What the fuck are you, Donald Trump?”
“....”
.

21:00 Arriving at the Roxy Club.
On the back of the club, in the monitor room. The guards were already been taken down by Mickey and Roxxy.
They have control of all the cameras inside this place.
Syd and Jody were both in the party clothes standing in front of the night club.
Needless to say, they can feel how wild inside is from here.
“ Wtf I can even hear the bass boosted over here.”
Syd said in frustration.
“ Come on, let's go,” said Jody.
“ right.”
They both walked to the club entrance.
The guards over the doors suddenly stop them from going in.
“ Your ID card, sir.”
“ Oh yeah, sure”
Syd shows the guards a fake ID card.
Easy as a piece of cake, with his face, the guards aren't suspecting him a bit.
“ Now, the lady---”
“ Oh, for her... Can you take THIS Instead???!!!”
As Syd finished, he punches the guard in the face, with his hands that had already been swapped its aspects with a metal bar, it knocks the guard off immediately.
Another guard next to him was shocked at what happened... But not for long as Toshi appears behind his back.
Pew! Pew!
Toshi came up with a small pistol and shot him in the back.
He collects the guard's blood and pastes it on his Japanese mask and wears it. Suddenly, Toshi turns in to that guard.
He nods to both Syd and Jody.
After they clear all the bodies and went in, Sera and Mickey show up.
Sera uses her ability, creates the LED sign that says “ Closed ”, Mickey gave its electricity. They and put them on the front door so nobody are going to interfere from now on.
.
.
.
.
.
.
They get themselves inside the club, The bass of electronic songs are blasting into their ears and the spotlights shook left and right...the atmosphere just like in the movie. Crowded with people, hot chicks, etc.
Toshi in the guard appearance fades away from Syd and Jody into the crowd, they both walked straight to the woman bartender.
“ Hi~ pretty boy, what can I do for ya, Luv? ” She asks Syd.
“ Gin fizz. Less sugar. Please.”
Syd said.
Jody whispers to him:
“ You know about the alcohol stuff?”
“ Well, this isn't my first time entering a place like this. What about you?”
“ Mine's first time.” Said Jody.
“ Nightclub is just a party but with loud songs and burning liquors n shit. Pinned that in your head. There's nothing so excited about it.”
He said.
“ Here you go, Luv.”
“ Thanks.”
Syd drinks it.
“ How about you, honey? Don't want a drink?”
The bartender talks to Jody.
“ Uh, No... I'm good.”
“ Are you his partner? Girlfriend? Or something?” She continued asking
“ W...What... U,uh---”
Jody's face turns a little red on the cheeks, but Syd cuts her off.
“ Oh, yeah miss. She's my girlfriend. We've been together for the last 2 weeks.”
“ Uuuuuu~ huhu... Burning lovers, I see”
“ Anyway...uh, I came here for a person name Bett Moretz. Do you know her?”
As Syd asked, the bartender's face changed into serious mode.
“ What did you just say?”
She asked again.
The tension between them starts growing.
“ Bett Moretz. Do you know her?”
Syd asked again.
“.... What do you guys have to do with Betty? ”
“ I'm a friend of Palmer Lake... Very close friends who've been together for a long time and trust-worthy. Palmer told us that Bett Moretz has goddamn good stuff secretly for sale... I didn't believe him. So I came here to check out whether his words are true...or actual bull shit.”
Said Syd.
“ Oh.... Mr.Palmer... I see You're a friend of him?”
“ Yup.”
Syd looked into the bartender's eyes.
“.....”
“.....”
“.....”
“ Alright... Follow me.”
The bartender leads the way to a secret entrance.
They both are followed by the guards from behind, Syd and Jody peek their eyes behind them and spot that Toshi was already among one of the guards.
Finally, they stopped by the red door.
The woman Bartender knocks on it.
Knock, knock.
“ Betty, there are people who'd like to meet you. They said they are Palmer's friends.”
“ Palmer?”
“ Yeah. Palmer Lake.”
“ Oh, I remember him. They're their friends?”
“ Yeah.”
“.....”
“.....”
“ Then come in...”
The door opens, Syd and Jody walk in.
Inside, appearing a 40 aged woman in a black dress sitting on the table.
She glared at Syd and Jody, showing her yellow eyes like a cat.
“ I'm Bett Moretz. What has brought you here?”

Tim the Engineer
Summoned against his will to a world of swords and magic, an engineering student struggles to find a way home under the shadow of a world devouring threat. ***************************** Updates: 5/13/19: Revisions to several chapters for clarity, grammar, and style. 4/29/19: A short side story and artwork has been added to the blog. 4/8/19: A Side Story has been updated on my new blog (every writer is required to have one). https://talesfromliahar.wordpress.com/ ***************************** “The summoning scenarios are broken down into groups of ten.” Emi Ito stated. “Don’t, don’t you dare say another word.” Muttered Genzo Uchida. His eyes had turned bloodshot and his hands shook with rage. “The first thirty…” “Shut up!” Genzo bellowed “How dare you help these disrespectful gaijin?” Flecks of spit and madness flew from his face, his fist raised ready to strike. But Emi did not flinch, instead she was about ready to continue when Yuma Takeuchi interrupted her. “Uchida, please,” her sweet sounding words could melt ice. “I think we will have a better chance of getting home if we all work together.” When she glanced up with her sleepy looking eyes at Genzo Uchida he deflated visibly. “Were not getting home.” Uchida said coolly. “Group summoning, large, that puts us in the 60 series. No one came to greet us after five minutes of arrival. That leaves scenarios 68 and 69. In scenario 68 there is something that binds the large group together; they are all classmates or a single family. But thanks to the gaijin” he spit out the word “I think we are scenario 69 with no way home.” Ikko Inoue’s eyes went wide, while Katsukno and Hayata started muttering to themselves. Tim took on a serious look and rubbed his scruffy chin. Emi maintained her stoic expression while trying to find something to refute. McKenzie glanced at Randall and giggled. Randall took the prompting of his teammate and followed up by approaching Genzo. “Uh, so we are in a sixty-nine?” “Yes.” Replied Genzo with the seriousness of someone who’s life was about to end. McKenzie covered her mouth and snickered. “You and me, were stuck in a sixty-nine situation?” Randall pushed with a grin. “Yes, we are all stuck in a sixty-nine scenario together!” Genzo retorted in anger. McKenzie fell on her butt laughing. “What the hell is so funny?” Demanded Genzo, whose face had turned red. “It’s a problem with the automatic translation.” Retorted Tim. Randall, who seemed unable to quit started in again “So, about this sixty-ni…” Genzo interrupted Randall with a swift punch to the face. But, because of their height difference it was a bit of an uppercut that left Randall rattled. Tim and Ikko moved to step in between the two, but Genzo showed no further hostility. Instead he just stared at his clenched fist with such intensity it grabbed the attention of the room. “I unlocked a skill.” He said bluntly. ***************************** This is not a light novel, but people who like light novels should enjoy the themes of this book. ***************************** A Map of the Region
