《This Book》Chapter 32: Invisible War (Zoe)
Advertisement
I had been undercover as George Blackwell’s nurse for five months, bided my time, gathering Intel, finally got the go ahead to kill the bastard, and now the young woman who had inherited his fortune had passed out in front of me. At first I was worried she might be dying, but her pulse seemed okay when I checked it. At any rate I didn’t have time to waste. She was at least easy to drag downstairs, she was only about 5’2 and was probably under a hundred pounds, and load into the trunk of my car. As I closed it I nearly panicked as I noticed another car approaching the driveway. Thankfully they weren’t close enough to see. I decided to play it casual, I suppose my alias would have its use one last time.
The car parked and one of the relatives from the party the other day emerged from the front seat. I recognized him as one of the grandchildren, but I hadn’t bothered to commit his name to memory. “Hey, you’re my grampa’s nurse?” He said, acting like he had any kind of relationship with the man. “What are you doing here?”
“Mrs. Blackwell asked me to pick up a few of her things she forgot.” It was even true. Last night she called from her beach house, it was pure coincidence, but a lucky one, one I intended to use.
“Need any help?” He said.
“Uh no, I’ve pretty much got everything already. But thank you.” I said. “I was actually just about to leave.”
“Alright.” He said. “Call me sentimental, I just wanted to see the old man’s place… One last time.”
A likely story. At any rate it didn’t affect me, so I left him with whatever it was he was doing and drove off. It was about nine hours from here to Virginia Beach, once there I’d be directed to a remote site nearby considered “safe”, although I wasn’t sure such a thing existed with the enemy we were fighting. Even though I know I’d been absolutely discreet, I couldn’t help but worry that they were watching. Perhaps I’d been fighting this war so long that it was the only thing I ever knew. I’d spent my whole life in the shadows, fighting an enemy almost no one knew existed. An enemy that also had the ability to influence everything.

If my mission was successful, if we were able to turn the Blackwell heiress to our side, we’d finally have a way to find our enemy’s weakness. And maybe, just maybe, finally bring down the Seraphic hegemony.

Displaced
Sucked into the void without warning, a handful of people from around the globe suddenly find themselves in the foreign world of Scyria, a place filled with people who can jump three times their height, conjure fire from thin air, and perform any number of other inhuman feats. Scattered across the realm and armed with newfound powers far greater than those of the native Scyrians, they each struggle to find their path in this unfamiliar reality. Their unforeseen arrival sends tremors throughout the world, toppling a centuries-long age of relative peace, prosperity, and progress as they each leave their mark on the world in their own ways. But Scyria has its own share of intrigue, even without these unwelcome guests. A major metropolis is wiped from existence out of nowhere, triggering a manhunt across the continent for those deemed responsible. Two feuding nations decide to bring their hostilities to a new level. Blades clash, nations fall, and plots years in the making begin to reveal themselves. This is the story of some unwilling trespassers, taken from their lives against their will and thrown into situations they barely understand. This is the story of some unfortunate Scyrians, their lives blown apart by the newcomers’ sudden and destabilizing existence. This is the story of Scyria, a world with a lost past buried beneath millenia. But as both the Earthlings and Scyrians are about to find out, sometimes the past doesn’t stay buried forever... I marked the story as having Gore, Sexual Content, and Traumatising content because it does contain a bit of all three, though not what I believe is a significant amount. Just wanted to be safe. It does contain a whole lot of profanity, though. That one is very much deserved. I post one chapter ahead on Patreon here, you can get it for a dollar: https://www.patreon.com/IrateRapScallion My Discord server for discussing the story and whatever else: https://discord.gg/uycZBbv Please vote for my story on Top Web Fiction by clicking here: http://topwebfiction.com/vote.php?for=displaced Thanks!
