《Nano Mage》Chapter 13 Quarrel
Advertisement
My heart was throbbing wildly. (How should I answer?) While I was thinking that Shadow Void butted in.”Leave him alone!” His hand was covered in a layer of shadow and he began to make a fist. Roaming Thunder was completely silent. She had a bewildered expression on her face. Her eyes kept altering between blinking repeatedly, and not blinking at all. Autumn’s expression mad chills run down my spine. (Where have I seen that look before?) Sharp swords were constructed and now floated around edge. These weapons were inching closer to me with each passing second. Silver was slowly backing away, and as she did, the grass was being coated in a thin layer of frost.
I breathed in to calm my nerves. While taking in my breath, everyone else stopped theirs. Everyone but Shadow Void that is. “It was an adrenalin rush.” I blurted out the fist thing that came to mind. No one but that. “Um lets take the dragon corpse and go back to the campsite.” Even with them in this state of mind, it was better to do something to get their minds off it for a little while at least.
Slowly we dragged the dragon’s corpse back to our camping site. “Should we move way from the mountain?” Shadow Void asked everyone. “How about we move away from Sylphire?” Shadow Void slapped Silver across the cheek, while coating his hand in a thin layer of Shadow. “He is our comrade, and he also just saved our lives.” Roaming Thunder has yet to say a word, and just keeps staring at me. She stared at me before, but this feels different. Edge is giving off an aura of a murderer. As for Autumn? (Wait where is Autumn?) I have a very bad feeling.

Autumn
(Why is a dragon here?) As I wondered this Sylphire began to give out orders. I complied to these orders. What he was saying made a lot of sense. The battle was going relatively well, until it took a bad turn, at least that is what should have happened. After having his arm bitten, Sylphire suddenly changed. I heard a cracking as he twisted one of the dragons arms. (That is not possible?) The next thing I knew the dragon had a huge dent in its check. In the next couple of minutes I felt something warm and wet land on my dress. My blue dress was now turning purple. Earlier I heard some sort of grinding noise. (Wait this is blood!) The dragon suddenly collapsed to the ground. Staring at the dragon and then back to Sylphire I asked. “Sylphire just what are you?” My question was harmonized by the voices of the others asking the same question.
While everyone was quarreling, I was deep in thought. I was recalling the days back in the tamers valley. Sometimes we would find an unusual monster. We would study its strength by sending in strong beast to see how it would fair. Some displayed remarkable skills. I remember there was a wolf who after fighting with a thunder bird learned to use lightning magic. (What would Sylphire be capable of if pushed?) I smirk crept along my face as I was thinking this. Was it my imagination or did Sylphire just shutter as I was thinking this?
Currently I wanted to test out that Idea. I would not try to find another dragon, that would just end my life. (A here it is!)
Sylphire
I could hear something far off in the distance. (Was someone running?) It sounded like footsteps, but there were six of them. Four lumped together, and two ahead of it. “Help thunder boar!” Autumn was running towards the campsite. I front of my eyes was a boar, but it had a horn like a rhino, that horn was in the shape of a blade. As specks of purple began to cover it, I began to feel dizzy. In the next instant lightning shot into the sky, then I passed out.

When I woke up Autumn was leaning over my face. In the next instant I did something unexpected, I kissed her. Her face became bright red. After hearing a strange sound,Autumn was suddenly unconscious. Behind her stood Shadow Void and Roaming Thunder. “What was that sound just now?” The two of them responded. “Nothing!” “Ouch!” A slight pain like a mosquito bite made its way to my neck. A large pool of blood started to form near my body. “Kill it before it kills us!” Edge was saying something strange. As a flood of black and purple engulfed the area around Edge, I once again passed out.
I woke up again, but next to me were to unconscious people. Edge and Autumn. (Autumn still hasn’t woken up yet huh?) Wait why does my nose feel cold? Looking around I noticed Silver who was currently poking my body. Each place she pocked I felt a winter chill. (Oh frost magic!)
Silver was shoved to the side by both Shadow Void and Roaming Thunder. They each leaned in closer while trying to push the other aside. A sudden tingle vibrated on my lips. (Huh?) the first one felt uncomfortable, but the second seemed more natural. It was then that I clued in. They both just kissed me.

SWTOR: The Alpha Legacy - Alexandra 'Under the Black'
This was the first character backstory and first full story in The Old Republic era after 'Project Alpha: A Summary: 'Old Republic to Current Operational Era'. This one was actually written much later. Several of the full stories were done and there was a need to introduce the Mother of several of the main characters. Much later on I started a timeline and this seemed to fit nowhere else, but right after the introduction story: Alexandra De'nabre lost everything on one of the moons of Felucia. But life found her again. As a Mirialan Jedi, she was sworn to the Unity and to the Force; casting both away once she believed both left her. The Force finds her again. And brings her back a part of her life she believed she lost. Her children. But in a cruel twist of fate, the very Republic she once defended is suddenly out to get her. Not because in her new life as an infamous pirate she committed crimes against them. The children she lost are now wards of the Republic and a special project called: Alpha. And they will stop at nothing to keep Alexandra from reclaiming them.

YAOS 1 - Limitless Adventures - Yet Another OP Story Book 1
December 23rd 2018: Book 1 is now up at Smashwords and at Amazon. December 30th 2018: V1.1.2 of YAOS Book 1 is out, some content additions, fixed typos. Amazon's enhanced typesetting now displays tables properly. YAOS is shown through the eyes of some genius athlete getting OP inside a VR, ah wait, Full Immersion game, ?F.I.O?. Not a Hero, not a Nerd, just a driven individual paying for mistakes made, biding time until he can return to the Real World. He isn't defined like you'd normally do it, you can pick his looks and name all on your own, just like you do in video games. Believe it or not, keeping his looks undefined is harder than you think. His backstory isn't expounded in detail, but it drives his choices. Book 1 isn't about depressing sob stories but about fun and rushing forward, pursuing new horizons. Oh, and you'll end on a cliffhanger! Well, most serials do, so you will probably expect that without being told explicitly. But it isn't that bad, there's a lot of reveals and more to come once this book, that is the first in a planned three-part series, is finally ready for release on amazon et al. The published version will have: 1.) Godawful speaker tags, I hate them, they make you stop thinking and speed up editing so much. In hindsight they should have been in to begin with. But I stand by my goals proclaimed earlier. You guys should think while reading, that is the whole point of the exercise. Apply the knowledge and ideas, improve yourself, get creative! 2.) Pretty colored tables, the damned blue boxes, a lot of work, 69 in one book. Finally fixed amazon's centering issue. Can't say I liked the hours needed to debug that. 3.) The promised Mitara chapters. 4.) A cover! 5.) And lastly, updated polished versions of several chapters. MC shares more of his past, some terrible chapters (esp. 32) finally work. Some new scenes, minor rewrites in parts. Text flow and other issues. The current challenge is to maintain essential ambiguity while satisfying people wanting to know more without thinking three steps ahead. Balancing one with the other is tough. The smut which was in remains, but the story told is not to be superseded by it. A 15+ rating for the first book is also important, not to mention, YAOS wasn't meant to contain any smut to begin with. If the Author can turn to writing full time his output should increase, so please support YAOS #1 once it does finally release. ~Thank You~ No maps so far, that should be in, but is really hard to get done right. Again, tips are appreciated. Update September 2017: Stubbed chapters, sorry guys, currently don't have time to upload them elsewhere, polishing book 1 and 2, writing 3, takes precedence. Book 1 is in heavy editing, too much to keep synced and continuing editing. I'd need a site which offers JS-free rapid managing of chapters and comments. Coding one myself or setting a premade up is out of scope until I'm done with the books. RRL-old offered that, nuff said. This is only here because the author believes in fairies, nobody reads this, most likely. October to December 2017: Life threw some curveballs. February 2018: Book 2 draft 1 completed, at ~150K words. Book 2 is fairly epic in scope, requires 1 rewritten chapter, some editing. Tables and miscellanea are in, but needs at least a grammar pass. March 2018: Book 3 at 28k words, first arc, rest needs serious planning for spin-off and satisfying conclusion. July 2018: Yet another proofing/editing session of books 1-3, 101+ chapters, ~300k words. B3 at 48k, starts out great, but no ETA, no wordcount limit, in flux. But prioritizing my writing cannot be done, I hate the delays as much as you, but you will prefer the whole released in a timely fashion rather than wait. Knowing myself how excruciating waiting can be, at least you'll get significantly polished versions and an ETA on book 2 by release of book 1. December 23rd 2018: Book 1 is now up at Smashwords and in the process at Amazon et. al.. . To all who wait patiently, offered feedback, thanks again!
