《Rise of the Henchman》Chapter 20: A Fathers Grief
Advertisement
“Before I train you on information gathering, you should watch the news. The police found Johnny and his friends.” Stated Seel.
Following her instruction I turn my attention to the nearby t.v. and watched it as the news had the breaking news logo on and had under it the title “Falcon’s Son Murdered” and had two analysts in a heated conversation.
“Someone is trying to take down the heroes and they are going after their families first!”
“No, we can’t go there, the cops found booze and drugs at the scene. Furthermore, there has been word of a sixth person in their group that has not been found yet.”
“And she got close to John and killed him. They are an agent to bring down the heroes.”
“I just said they had booze and drugs scattered around, they easily could have angered their dealer and he killed them. And what are you getting at by saying the heroes are targets?”
“Come on, after the Phanuel travesty, people have been in an uproar and terrorist groups are sprouting left and right.”
“Stop spouting nonsense, there is no proof of anything you're saying.”
“We interrupt this program to bring you live to The Falcon’s news conference.”
“Yesterday night I learned of my son’s death. He was a bright boy with a great curiosity.” The Falcon is standing stoically, making sure his words are clear as he continues, “My son wasn’t perfect but he was still mine. I raised him from a baby to a man and even though he stumbled he was still supported. I still love him and I knew that my bright little boy could come back and shine brightly but this tragedy has ended his potential. Someone took him away from me. He took away his opportunity to change. He took away the most precious of all things, his future.”

The falcon looked coldly at the camera. Killing intent permeated the air. He then slowly said, “The person responsible… WILL PAY DEARLY.”
Hurrah, my first nemesis.

The Dungeon of Evolution
The greatest mage and researcher in the universe, Ian Irwin, known to only his closest friends died at far too young an age. For their own goals and to give the mage another chance at life, the Gods and Goddesses reincarnated him into a dungeon. Most would shudder at the thought, in fact Ian did, but not for the same reasons. The plants, animals, fungi, and monsters that inhabited dungeons fascinated Ian in a way nothing besides his wife had. Ian had studied everything he could about dungeons and now he could be one. Traumatising Content: Besides the purpose of dungeons, the presenting of evil morals as a positive is not present in this novel. Evil morals themselves, however, are present. Combined with the gore tag, there will be imagery present that could be considered traumatising. The absence of the sexual content tag means there will be no scenes of that nature. I, the author, apologize to any previous readers that, due to my previous clarification, read the story with the belief that scenes of disturbing imagery would not be present.

Edge of the Storm
A thousand years after narrowly escaping extinction, humanity still fights for survival on the fringe of space. On the alien, hostile world of Deana, Taro is tasked with dealing a mortal blow to an enemy that has pursued the last dregs of the human species across light years. From the Wild Summer hyper-carrier, Taro must strike out at an enemy that seems like it would stop at absolutely nothing to ensure humanity's time in the universe draws to an end. The key to it all is Valerie, a human bred super-weapon, and the discovery she makes aboard the enemy craft Delirium. What to expect from Edge of the Storm: You will find here a slow burning story that is punctured by moments of high flying action, intense mecha battles, gory hand-to-hand combat, tough decisions and sacrifices. What you won't find are black and white morals, harems, cute girls, big boobs, or anything else that might bring me troves of readers. You have been warned. Update schedule: Saturdays (and maybe Wednesdays).
