《C.O.L.A. BERATION》CHAPTER 23
Advertisement
Charlie and company are staring at Kindra.
CHARLIE
WHOA! What the hell happen to her?!
FRANK
There's something I got to tell you guys. She-
Kindra is directly in Frank's face after he blinks and his eyes widen.
FRANK
(SHIT! She's too fast for me to track!)
Charlie, Candice, and Cindy lost track of Kindra.
CHARLIE
Where the hell she go?!
They all look around until Cindy spots Kindra directly in front of Frank.
CINDY
THERE SHE IS!
Charlie and Candice looks in the direction Cindy points toward and sees Kindra in front of Frank.
CANDICE
FRANK!
CHARLIE
(Now way! How did she get there without any of us noticing?!)
Kindra puts her index finger on Frank's lips while she still has an evil-like smile on her face.
KINDRA
Shhhhhhhhhhhhh. There's no need to tell them about me, Frank.
Kindra quickly punches Frank in the stomach while her finger is still on his lips. He coughs up blood and is about to fall to his knees, but Kindra held him up.
KINDRA
I CAN JUST SHOW THEM INSTEAD!
Kindra kicks Frank on the side of his head, causing him to fly off the top of City hall and onto the street below.
CHARLIE and CANDICE
FRANK!
Kindra looks at Charlie and company.
KINDRA
I'm not finished playing yet!
As Kindra licks her lips, Cindy aims her pistol at Kindra.
CINDY
LET'S DANCE, BITCH!
She fires multiple rounds at Kindra, but Kindra is easily avoiding the bullets by slightly moving her body left and right.
CINDY
She's way too fast!
She pulls the trigger, but the gun clicks.
CINDY
FUCK! I'm out of bullets!
She looks down and reaches into her pockets to get more ammunition. She reloads her gun and aims her gun, but Kindra is nowhere to be found.
CINDY
Where'd she go?!
Kindra reappears behind Cindy.

KINDRA
Behind you.
Kindra chops Cindy in the back of her neck. She passes out and falls to the ground, dropping her pistol in the process.
CHARLIE
CINDY!
Charlie gets angry and charges toward Kindra.
CHARLIE
YOU ARE GOING TO PAY!
CANDICE
WAIT!
Kindra disappears and reappears behind Charlie. Afterwards, she chops him in the back of the neck.
CHARLIE
But...when did she...
Charlie passes out and falls to the ground.
KINDRA
One to go.
Kindra looks at Candice and Candice starts to sweat.
CANDICE
(nervous)
(There's no way I can keep up with her speed.)
Kinda and Candice are staring each other down.
CANDICE
Fuck it! YOLO!
Candice charges toward Kindra and throws a punch, but Kindra stops her punch with the palm of her hand.
CANDICE
WHAT?!
Kindra quickly pulls Candice toward herself and grabs Candice by the neck. Candice is struggling to break free.
KINDRA
(disappointed)
This isn't fun.
Kindra slowly lifts Candice in the air, choking her.
KINDRA
You disappoint me, Candice? You could've been like me if you hadn't escaped. I bet you're feeling pretty regretful, huh? Well don't worry. The regret that you're feeling is going to be gone real soon.
Kindra starts squeezing Candice's throat. Candice is struggling even harder as the pain increases. Seconds later, she stops moving and Kindra feels something touching her.
KINDRA
Huh?
She looks down and sees Charlie on the ground, holding onto her ankle.
KINDRA
You want to play some more?
CHARLIE
I...told you before...I'm never...giving up...
Kindra starts laughing and releases Candice, causing Candice to fall to the ground. Kindra kicks Charlie's hand off her ankle.
KINDRA
Haven't you heard the saying, kid..."Never say never."
She kicks Charlie in the stomach and he coughs up blood.
ALBERT
What did I tell you?
KINDRA
I know. I'm just playing around with him.

Kindra picks Charlie up by his shirt and starts dragging him to Albert. Candice slowly opens her eyes and see Kindra dragging Charlie. She reaches her hand out toward Charlie.
CANDICE
Ch...Char...lie...
Kindra drops Charlie in front of Kindra.
KINDRA
Here you go.
ALBERT
Excellent. And just in time too.
Albert kneels down beside Charlie and takes off Charlie's eye patch.
ALBERT
I'm going to be taking that eye of yours now. Not to worry though, it will only hurt a lot.
Albert reaches his hand toward Charlie's left eye, but Charlie grabs Albert's arm.
CHARLIE
Dad...please...
ALBERT
Being stubborn will get you nowhere. Now release me.
Albert removes Charlie's hand off of his arm and grabs Charlie's left eye, pulling it out of his eye socket
CHARLIE
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
Charlie places his hands over his left eye socket. There is blood coming from it. Candice starts crying after watching what had happened.
CANDICE
CHARLIE!
Albert stands up with Charlie's left eye in his hand.
ALBERT
Yes. I finally got what I wanted.
Albert pulls out a remote and presses a button on it. The machine behind them opens up to reveal a seat inside of it. He begins to walk toward the machine.
ALBERT
Now you can kill him.
KINDRA
With pleasure.
CANDICE
No...
Kindra raises her foot, preparing to stomp Charlie's head in.
CANDICE
No...
Kindra brings her foot down with great force behind it.
CANDICE
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Suddenly, Frank comes from out of nowhere and punches Kindra in the face. She flies backwards, but regains her balance. She lands on her hands and feet, but is still sliding backwards. Frank quickly grabs Charlie and retreats to where Candice is lying. He drops Charlie and faces toward Candice.
FRANK
Candice, are you OK?
CANDICE
Frank...I'm glad...you're OK.
Frank has a depressing look on his face.
FRANK
There's only one thing left to do. Candice...do you trust me?
CANDICE
...Yes.
FRANK
Thank you.
Frank stabs his hand into Candice's stomach. Candice is in a lot of pain and is speechless from what just happened. Frank starts giving Candice his energy. Kindra stops sliding backwards and her evil-like smile goes away.
KINDRA
Damn you, Frank! You keep getting in the way! I guess I'll have to take care of you first!
Kindra stands up and sprints toward Frank. Frank removes his hand from Candice's stomach.
FRANK
Candice, just remember one thing.
Kindra appears behind Frank.
FRANK
I'll always be with you.
Kindra kicks Frank's head off of his shoulders and Frank's head is sent flying off of City Hall while his body falls to the ground.
KINDRA
Finally got rid of that bastard! Now it's time to finish the rest of you off!
Suddenly, Candice begins to glow.
KINDRA
What?! This is impossible!
Candice's eyes close and she begins to float in the air.
KINDRA
That shot I gave you earlier should've gotten rid of what was in your body! Unless...
Kindra looks at Frank's body on the ground.
KINDRA
FRANK!
Candice slowly floats down to the ground, landing on her feet.
KINDRA
I don't care what kind of power you have!
Kindra disappears and reappears behind Candice.
KINDRA
YOU STILL WON'T MATCH UP TO ME!
Kindra goes to kick Candice in the head, but Candice blocks it with her forearm.
KINDRA
WHAT?!
Candice grabs Kindra's leg and swings Kindra around before slamming her to the ground.
KINDRA
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
Kindra quickly jumps to her feet and jumps away from Candice. She has blood running down her face. Candice begins to slowly open her eyes and, once fully opened, her pupils revealed to be blue.

Cheep!?
Charles Monroe survived the disappearance of his parents, did his best to hold things together for himself and his sister. He survived when she, too, vanished, leaving behind nothing but a cryptic note. He was devastated, but he kept moving forward as best he could. Cancer didn’t put him down, and after suffering through several rounds of chemotherapy, Charles Monroe thought that things might finally be looking up. That is, until a virulent strain of ebola swept through the city. With his immune system strained as it is, the odds don’t look good for Charles. Now, on the bridge between life and death, he hears a voice claiming to know where his family went. It claims that it needs his help and that it can give him a second life, one far away from all the pain he’s ever known. So, Charles answers as any reasonable person would. He says no. Charles isn't ready or willing to die yet. But, as with everything else to this point, even his choice to keep fighting is taken from him all too soon. With no other option but the dark oblivion of death, Charles chooses to make a deal with the spirit of a distant world that's seeking a wild card in its battle against the gods, monsters, and mortals that threaten its existence. Someday, he’ll find where his family went. Someday, he’ll uphold his end of the bargain and hunt beings powerful beyond anything he’s ever known. Someday, he might even – hatch? “CHEEP!?” Things to Know: -Cheep!? Will release on a minimum weekly schedule. -After a backlog of chapters, posting will slow, but in the interim you can expect a chapter a day up until roughly 25 chapters. -This story at times will potentially carry some heavy moments, but the tone is intended to be lighter overall. -There are invisible game-like elements in this story, but nothing so concrete as a dedicated gamelit novel. -I personally have some issues with anxiety, so I may or may not interact with the community a lot. I'll try if anyone has questions, but I can't guarantee that it'll be consistent. -MC is a non-human lead, and will never actually become human. Romance will potentially happen between side-characters, but not with the MC. -MC IS NOT THE ONLY VIEW POINT. I have to put that out there because people sometimes hate alternate PoV's in a story. None of them will be filler, and they'll be there only to give a little bit more nuance and meaning to the world that the MC has stepped in, or is about to be imminently important. I'll try to keep them down, but this also helps to prevent me from burning out getting trapped in one view. -Most of all, I hope that this story is enjoyable to you, and that you have a great time reading it! -Written by Michael Adams, Cowritten/Edited by Summer Kent

STEEL ABYSS
A new era is upon Kailsh. Floating above the waves of her endless oceans, the great cityships of humanity are undergoing a revolution. Ancient flotillas and sailing boats, once the lifelines of a dying race, have been transformed into towering metropolises and mighty vessels of steel through the ancient salvage upon the sea floor. It is a time of war. From once disparate tribes are born nations, fighting over the remains of dead gods deep in the abyss. Battleships sail across elysian seas and fighter jets carve trails upon a pale blue sky: a world turning upon itself in the throes of conflict. And one Coalition Warship to save it all: the battleship Archipelago. Crewed by an emergency crew of raw cadets and an artificial mind salvaged from the ruins of ancient civilizations beneath the waves, the Archipelago will face not only the enemies of the Coalition, but of humanity’s very existence on Kailsh. For some secrets are better left undiscovered, and in the embrace of the STEEL ABYSS.

After the Old gods had been killed, the new age of freedom had begun. For two centuries, the people that had once been played against each other in pointless wars have worked hard to make new lives for themselves, unknowing of those that had retreated into the shadows beyond the realms.

Those who know them work to foil their plans, those that know of them covet what they bring. Those who remember, fear the return of the old. This is the story that follows one such protector, dedicated to the elimination of those that have grown strong in the outer realms, gathering others from within to push them back. Will try and update each week. Also posting on Scribble Hub and Webnovel.

El's Revenge
“Revenge is not for the dead- we, as the living, take revenge to relieve the burden we feel,” I whispered into the air. “Salvation for the people who suffered because of you,” I watched as the city burned in the flames. “Salvation for the people like me, who believed in the proclaimed heroes when in reality they were the devils.” I smiled faintly as the ‘holy land’ of those ‘saints’ was destroyed. I heard rustling sounds as Charlotte came to stand next to me, grabbing my hand. “El, are we the bad guys?” If I was still the same as I was before, I might’ve broken down and started crying. Now, it was different. “A villain is just another victim. They cry and mourn, it’s just that no one heard, leading them into madness. It’s one of the reasons why we know the most, but care the least.” I took a deep breath. “We may be the bad guys in other peoples’ eyes, but in my story, we’re the heroes.” Charlotte took in my words for a while and pondered, before nodding in agreement. “As children, we loved the heroes, as adults we understand the villains.” I looked at her and bonked her on the head, earning an angry glare from her. “Hey! You’re barely an adult yourself you know,” she grumbled. I laughed and ruffled her hair, before countering her. “At least I’m not 12. You can’t even be considered a teenager at that age.” After that, we silently watched the flames ravage the land, before leaving.
