《Rise of the Henchman》Chapter 18: Scary Opponent
Advertisement
“I Just confirmed it, the Blond is Shelly Duncan and she is on our wanted board. She’s a serial killer that will gives unwilling men a “sex change” while they are awake and the lucky one’s die during the procedure. Also she got on the board for her work on a guild member, he wasn’t as lucky.” Said Jason.
“Why hasn’t she been caught?” asked Ash.
“She has an annoying ability, it’s teleportation. If she can see it then she can teleport to that spot and that’s all we got on her about the ability. We are gonna need to be careful, she has killed three full-fledged blacklist agents already.”
“Damn, this sucks. So, what will she do to the two girls?”
“She will kill them. The only comparable situation to this one is when she killed a guy and his girlfriend. When the girlfriend came home unexpectedly. As for the girlfriend, she only received a stab to the heart. Now on to the plan, we are gonna wait for sundown and you will be near the house waiting. You will go in and kill everyone after I take a shot at Shelly from my sniper rifle. I will come and back you up if needed but you're on you're own for the first few minutes. I need to stress this, even though I am confident in my sniping, there is a very good reason for her to still be alive after being put on the board.”
With the sun down Ash is crouching down near a window waiting for Jason to take his shot. Inside the two guys and girls were playing drinking games while Shelly was upstairs with her next victim. While waiting Ash did his best to keep his composure, this is easily the most danger he has ever been in.

“Crack.”
With the glass breaking, Ash then gets up, smashes the window, and jumps inside. Like a deer in headlights, John was blankly staring at Ash. Ash then charged and stabbed John in the chest, penetrating his heart. After the stab, Ash then takes out a handgun and shoots one male and two females with two chest shot and a headshot.
After killing four people, Ash uses his goggles to look for the remaining two. With infrared he finds one person in the second story of the house but they were not moving even with the noise. The thing that stood out the most was that there was only one person. Before he could contact Jason, he felt a presence near him and instinctively drove forward. Even with the quick reaction, he still got a large cut across his back.
When he turns around, Shelly stood right in front of him with a large knife. Then she disappears and out of desperation, Ash jumps out of the broken window. Without a chance to catch his breath, she appears in front of him and swings down her knife. Before she could connect, a shot rang out and Shelly fells to the ground. She then disappeared from sight.
“You alright Ash?”
“Yeah, just a cut to the back.”
“Good, I winged her shoulder just now but we need to be weary of her attacking. Before we leave we should check on the guy upstairs.”
With that dialog done we proceed upstairs and entered the room the guy was in. He is out cold, he has clearly been drugged, but he is alive and hasn’t been operated on. After confirming his situation I proceed to slit his throat and we took our leave.
I can now look forward to getting stitches, thanks Shelly.

Earth Exodus
Elliot isn't the first one taken, he was the last, or one of them at least. Careless divines, gods, or higher powers had been snatching humans through numerous means over the years. Those that returned brought minor tokens of their previous power if anything at all. Over time unrestrained magic became commonplace on earth. Which must have brought attention to us. The earth is ravaged by increasing levels of rogue magics, divines, and a war over resources and experience. Eventually resulting in a mass exodus of the remaining powerless humans by a coalition of gods.Now translocated to Vauthia where everyone has been given a path to power. They're met with an unfortunate reality. They've only been rescued from one dying world to be tasked with saving the new one. While at the same time they're apparently supposed to compete with one another. Meanwhile Elliot wasn't just given a path to power. He was given a choice. The opportunity for true power is offered. When as he reaches for it the power isn't all it's cracked up to be.Systemless in a world where everyone else has access to one Elliot must grapple with a multitude of problems from without and within. The 'gods' might actually be incompetent, uncaring, downright malicious, or all three. His power is constantly three steps behind those who chose the quick path to power. There's also the antisocial tendencies he's brought with him from earth. Can he trust the 'god' who seems to be taking him under their wing? Will he be able to catch up to his fellow earthlings who're ever increasing in power? Is it possible he may just break out of his shell along the way?*** What to expect ***The initial start will be quite slow, building the setting, history, and individuals involved. There is a small bit of progression in these early chapters for the MC, but more along the lines of figuring out how their systemless power works. though once the story gains traction it won't stop.*** Don't tell Elliot, but ***Elliot hates to admit it but he's very clearly antisocial. Not to mention troubles with thinking that stem from several un-diagnosed disorders he'd rather believe don't exist.*** Image Copyright *** //In this satellite image released by Copernicus Sentinel imagery, 2020 twitter page dated Dec. 31, 2019, shows wildfires burning across Australia.
