《Dawn Rising》Chapter 56: Aurora
Advertisement
My trembling hand lifted to my face and my fingers came away covered red with blood. I stumbled. My feet carried me without conscious thought away from the threshold that emptied onto the balcony, where the rising dawn painted the sky.
I turned and staggered. My legs struggled to bear my weight.
That’s when I saw him.
The iron door was open. Impossibly bent, the metal hung from twisted hinges.
Aidon was on his knees before it, a hand clutched over his heart. And he was pale. So, deathly pale. His eyes lifted to mine, those silver orbs wide and shocked. As if he didn’t know me. As if he was seeing me for the first time.
His bloodless lips formed my name. But I couldn’t hear him. I couldn’t hear anything but my own panting breaths and the blood that rushed through my head like a pounding drum.
The world shifted. It canted sickenly to the side.
Too much, I’d delved too deeply, cast too widely. My knees gave out and I was falling. Molten silver eyes held me, the shock there deepening to pain and fury and fear.
His eyes were the last I saw before the dawn faded to impenetrable night.

Follow Grant Legate’s trials and tribulations through: Memories, Made, Realities, Crash, Together. Memories: A man broken by despair and depression, Grant Legate finds himself in a once-in-a-lifetime situation after receiving an Ultimate Edition copy of Continue Online. All he wishes for is a distraction from the thoughts plaguing his waking hours. He dives in headfirst, unknowing of the AIs intentions. They offer him the chance to play as one of their own, a NPC deserving of a proper send off. What he discovers during the journey shakes Grant to his very core. Made: No longer playing as a Local from the world of Continue Online, Grant Legate’s adventure can begin. The Voices offer him a unique title along with a test and reward. To start—he'll have to survive underground horrors, old girlfriends, become a warrior. To win—he must become an imp familiar and kill another player, one with a dozen tricks up his sleeve. Realities: Worried for his sanity after poor in-game choices, Grant Legate’s sister, Liz, blocks access to Continue Online. With no way around the restriction, he ventures into a new world—a VRMMO game based in space—called Advance Online. There he must help his companion AI, Hal Pal, overcome an identity crisis, race to the center of the universe to bring back his true love, and figure out where he stands on the scariest implication of all; AIs are bringing the dead to life. Crash: Grant’s prior adventures tie together and he finds himself back in Continue Online, as Hermes—in jail. He's forced to experience life as a digital convict and earn redemption points to gain his freedom. Each in-game death pushes his goal of helping his friends out of reach. The AIs Grant’s grown to love, trust—and sometimes fear—are facing extinction, he holds the key to their survival. Together: The game is no longer about adventures in a new world or exploring fantasy lands. Grant’s digital wife faces deletion, along with everyone else he cares for. He, and those who know this is more than a game event, search for clues to salvation left behind by the game's creators. Even if he finds them all, the Voices have one last task for their messenger. A sacrifice.

Follow MC through his journey, where he will meet his new enemies and old rivals. P.S. : This is my first novel also English isn't my first language so please don't be harsh. P.P.S: About mature context… There might be a bit of gore (if there is a battle so there got to be at least some blood) and I won't deny some adult material. On HIATUS
