The One, The Enlightened
-Hikari: Okay, calm down! When was the last time any of you two saw Raiden?
-Miyuki: Now that you mention it.... I don't think Raiden came to the school at all...
-Akihito: I haven't seen him either....
-Hikari: We need to search for him.
-Miyuki: But.. We can't leave Michi like that! Someone needs to protect him. You go looking for him and I will stay here to look after Michi.
The two of them surprised again by Miyuki's confident speech, agreed to the plan.
-Akihito: Ok Miyuki. We will leave now, ok?
-Miyuki: It's fine. Really, it is. I could never abandon him.
-Hikari: We know Miyuki. You really care for him. Not that you don't care for the rest of us but you know...
-Akihito: I don't think it is the right time to discuss these events. We have priorities. Come Hikari. Miyuki, we will return soon!
-Miyuki: Bye...
Miyuki waved at them whilst shedding a tear. She is carefully watching over him and also tries to wake him by mildly slapping him. Michiaki seems unresponsive from the slapping. There is nothing she can do so she continues to watch over him. Meanwhile, Hikari and Akihito decided to follow the road which they took to come to school. They finally reached the spot where they met the old lady. Akihito goes inside a small passage that leads to the back of the grocery store. To his surprise, he finds Raiden, and in front of him is someone with a very big hood.
-Akihito: Raiden!
Akihito calls out for Raiden. The moment he does, the person turns around to look at Akihito then turns back to Raiden. He tells something to Raiden then snaps his fingers. With that movement, he disappears.
-Raiden: What took you so long! I thought I was gonna die in here!

-Akihito: I am really sorry, Raiden! Your brother collapsed and he had to take care of him.
-Raiden: Of course he gets taken care of first. My perfect brother.
-Akihito: Don't make me remind you of what you did. You are really lucky that he still speaks to you!
Raiden looks at Akihito with an expression that is a mix of annoyance and sadness.
-Raiden: ...
-Akihito: Come on! Let's get you back. We need to enter the school.
-Raiden: FIne..
Raiden not being able to make even one step collapses.
-Akihito: Raiden! Not you too! Hikari! In here! Quick, I need help!
-Hikari: What happened? Did you find him?
-Akihito: Well, look for yourself! The brothers share the same fate.
-Hikari: What happened this time? Did you find him like this?
He then explains everything to Hikari.
-Hikari: What? Are you high? Did you eat anything rotten?
-Akihito: I swear! This is what happened!
-Hikari: Then how are you so calm? What you described to me was terrifying and really strange!
-Akihito: I really don't know....
-Hikari: Why didn't you ask him what happened? We could have easily learned something!
-Akihito: I was waiting for him to calm down, alright? I didn't know that he would collapse! Stop blaming me now and help me carry him back to school!
While Hikari and Akihito were struggling to fix the situation, Miyuki accidentally fell asleep.
Michiaki suddenly wakes up. He tries to get up but realises that Miyuki has rest on top of him. He gently tries to move her as to not wake her up but the inevitable happens.
-Miyuki: Hm.....?
Miyuki still half asleep realized what she had done. She gets up extremely fast and hides behind the corner in embarrassment.
-Miyuki: I-.. I a-.. I am really sorry, Michi....
Michiaki laughs it off and approaches Miyuki.

-Michiaki: Come on now! You didn't do anything bad! You just fell asleep! Truth be told, I should also thank you. Thank you for protecting me and staying beside me.
Miyuki becomes more embarrassed than before. She slowly comes out the corner and tries to speak with her head glued to the ground.
-Miyuki: You have nothing to thank me for.... I have only caused trouble.....
-Michiaki: Don't ever say that! Now, come here and tell me where the others are.
Miyuki explains to him what happened.
-Michiaki: Interesting... This situation is getting unnecessarily problematic. However, I have something more important to speak to you about, Miyuki.
Miyuki waits silently for Michiaki to start speaking. Michiaki leans into her right ear.
-Michiaki: This is a really big secret, so please don't tell anybody about it. This will stay between us, ok?
Miyuki nods in agreement.
-Michiaki: So.....
Michiaki says something to Miyuki. Miyuki starts getting really anxious. Midway through, she is clearly in shock. After a few seconds, she starts crying. Michiaki finally finishes. Miyuki quickly hugs him. She starts crying on his chest uncontrollably.
-Miyuki: I don't want to believe you... How.. Why... I can't process it.....
Michiaki pats her on the head.
-Michiaki: Don't worry, Miyuki. The pieces will eventually come together. I still have a large portion missing, but I am sure we will find it together. All of us. The truth will prevail.
The dark shadow appears again. This time some pieces of clothing can be seen. It wears a plain black t-shirt and black pants. It's shoes are black and white.
-???: Yes... Plan activated. Everything will come back together. There is still hope.... Right, Akira?
A yellow cat lures from the shadow figure.
-Akira: Let's hope that this time it will work. The one to save us. The one to save everybody... Here's to you, The Enlightened.

8 136Defenders of Fantasmyth
DROPPED: this story is unfinished and will likely remain that way. If you are looking for quality work that is still being updated, you're better off checking out my fanfiction. No, really. That wasn't a joke. Jakyra, a young-adult coairse* dragon with an affinity for wordplay and skill in fighting, is a pest to her government the Dragon Crown. This odd relationship leads her to make contact with a long-lost magical, draconic construct of great renown called Ismat, leading up to a string of bizarre, humorous, and troublesome events. Chance brings together the impulsive dragon, her quiet, resolute elven friend Sauda, amiable, honor-seeking dwarf Gunnar, and the construct Ismat. The Omniguards, Defenders of Fantasmyth, are born. *No, that is not a typo.
8 220Alternate Worlds
This is actually a group of short stories I did some time ago. The first group are 3 stories, all starring the same Protagonist but with different foes and ways of how the stories play out. Past this I have other story lines that I have done this with and will likely use this heading to put them out there. - Note: The Book Picture is the location of the Portal the car went through. There are 4 such statues set across from each other and then two of the large pillars, set across the street from one another. New Story Line: Lost is about a man lost in a world that Used to have summoned hero's, ones where the mages who did the summonings did not close the pathways properly, so sometimes people from all across time, space, and dimension end up falling in to their world. Some become heroes, some 'Demon Lords' and some something else. I have 3 versions of this story which I will put here, one chapter a day. 2cd version was massively flawed, which I only realized while sharing it. As such I am skipping it and moving on to the 3rd version. The 3rd Story of Lost is about a man who mysteriously fell in to a world based on video games, complete with leveled zones, levels of skills, professions and so forth. Being from a world like ours, with the knowledge of these things, gives him a decided edge and better potential than normal. --------------------------------------- New story - New Life, Old Soul is the story of a man who used desperate experimental magic to grant himself a new life in a new world. This is an Iseki story with a single twist as no outside force dropped or summoned this soul to its new life. Come and see what sort of world and life this willing traveler of Realities unknown experiences. I will try and post once a day, though times may vary depending on my the wierdness that is my life. ^-^ ------------------------------ Cosmic Chaos A Void Maker tried to destroy several realities, by forcing their crystal shells in to each other. The AOs of those realms fought back the best they could, including a desperate play of opening random portals between the divergent universes and the void. Several things, peoples, and animals fell through these portals. In the grand scheme of things very little of this had long reaching consequences. However, Some of these universes gained new time lines from these events.This is a story of one such event, of one very lost traveler dropped in to a very different world than the one he came from. Tags: Isekai, Gender Change (Male to Female), Magic, Drama (lets face it most of my stories have a bit of this in them even when I don't tag them thus, though I don't know how 'Realistic' the characters are.) -------------------------------
