《Origin of Flames》19 Nature always wins
Advertisement
I chuckle in a daze and slow motions to push myself up, "I told you, you can't change nature." He snickers, "You are resilient for someone so small." I shake off the daze, huff and a flame engulfs my hands, "I'm not a meathead like you. Also, I'm proud of my streets I grew up on."
Kevin McAllister - Play Dirty
Ice engulfs him as he charges in, I duck and the air smacks against my air. I punch at his shoulder, a huge chunk of ice melts away and my fist hits bone. I pull away at the pain and he kicks me in the crotch. Then a one-two, the force of aluminum bats into my sides. I punch in with desperation, but he leans in and hugs me, "Pitiful!" A huge slam with his knee, it sinks into my gut. Again, the air escapes me. I stare at him in pure scorn, I can hear them. So many ghosts with regrets. I'll live for them and they'll live through me. Flames engulf my whole body and he roars in pain. As my eyes adjust, he jumps away and pats off the flames. His hands bleed bad, but his frost quickly stops it. He's patching himself up with ice? He roars, but Calico's thundering roar seems more important. I rush after her as Wendell shouts in pain.
I run in and find her hiding, bleeding from small bullet holes. Her almost human-like arms tremble with kitten in them. "Kid, take her." "Are you ok!?" She smiles with a dead look in her eyes. "No, no! You're going to survive!" She mewls, "They're coming with the storm." I sigh and take kitten, she snuggles up into my torn jacket. "Scale the wall, snow should break your fall. Run." I gulp and look upon it. Stairs lead up to them, Wendell shouts and fires wildly at me. I run away and up the stairs.

When I get up, there's an even worse blizzard cloud rolling in, behind me, a gunfight breaks out between the civilians and the Onyx Order's militia. I look down and make a jump. A jerk back by my hood, "There's no escape!" He throws me onto the wall and I fumble kitten out my coat. She cries as flames engulf me. New additions to his body, inhuman hand of ice. The frostbite travels up his arm like extra veins. "You don't have to do this!" He rushes in and throws a punch. "I'll kill you!" I step back and throw a punch into his face and he reels back. He punches me and I grab his throat. He screams as blood drips down my hand. I jump and back up. Whoa- What!? He takes a knee and ice envelops his neck. He should be bleeding out by his neck! His face scrunches up tight, his face turns tomato red as he gurgles out blood to a scream in a raspier tone, "Die you inhuman garbage!" Ice envelops him, he turns giant. I freeze in place at the sight. He's insane!
Calico pushes me out the way and I scream, "No!" I look over and there's a huge cavity in her body. I turn to him and rush in, He hammers down, but I'm willing to take that hit. "You killed her, damnit!" He screams as I grab his arm tight, it melts, burns and then he starts bleeding further. He pushes me and I slip off the wall, my fingers manage to grab the ledge. He holds an icicle out his severely burned palm, "Hope you freeze in hell!" Kitten leaps in and bites his hand. He screams and throws her into the snow. I look down and drop to get her. He's healing, "Mommy!" I yank her by the scruff as an army of animal screams draw ever closer. "We have to run!" I rush out into the snow as Wendell shoots large icicles at us. The blizzard smacks against us, I fall into the snow to keep a grip on her scruff. I shove her in my jacket and summon a flame, a large spider towers over us. Hundreds of them leap over or run around the light. I get up and trudge ahead, through the stampede. Kitten mewls loud through the snow, "Mommy!" I growl as panthers rush past, but then a bear walks up . It's eyes widen and mine do too. That's the bear that threw that car while chasing me. I glare at it as it walks up. I lower the flame and it brushes against me, as if it was a blessing. I nod and carry on. No government or militia can stop me, nature's on my side. For that blessing, I'll make sure to be everyone's light. I'll find a way to lift these deadly clouds above us.

Dreams or Another World - Not a Zero (Update 09/19/21)
(Updated 09/19/21) Hello and welcome. If you made it this far and the book title sounds interesting, I'm hoping you'll read a few chapters. Here's a sample from chapter 1 of "Dreams or Another World - Not a Zero."Slowly starting to wake up, I become aware. It's like coming out of a fog.Head hurts.Body hurts.There's a conversation in the room. This isn't my bed. Someone is touching my arm. I crack my eyes to look. She doesn't notice. Is she praying for me? Her hands do feel good…do feel... Slipping back unconscious, my eyes slowly close. I didn't notice the soft green glow under Jenn’s hands.*******************"It does look like he saved them or at least stalled them long enough for us to get there." says the man dressed more like a park ranger than an officer of the law. "I did think he was part of it at first" he continues "but the evidence shows he wasn't there and they were certainly fighting on that back road where we found them""I don't care who he is." says a woman as she enters the room. "He saved and protected my Jenn. I will make sure there's not a mark or a scar on him before he leaves". As she continues the few steps over to the men speaking, even though dressed simply in common clothes, there is no doubt the race of elves is in her heritage. The grace and lines of her form. The elegance and lightness of her step. She glances at her daughter, still watching over the young man in the bed. "Do we know who he is yet?" she asks no one in particular."Not yet dear" a man in a white coat responds. A handsome middle-aged man. Fit, but not that of a fighter or ranger. "I asked Talon to bring another identification stone with him. I was hoping ours was just broke, but it's reading the same.""What do you think is wrong?" Talon asks."I'm thinking we just have to wait until he recovers. I have heard of cases where the stone didn't work. Powerful spells can hide or wipe a person clean. I doubt he's a spy or a criminal. Spells like that are just too high level if, they're used at all. My best guess is, there is just some disconnect with him being unconscious. When he wakes, we can ask him or use the stone again then."I find myself waking up in a hospital bed. The attending Doctor finds it odd that he cannot identify my class. An Officer says I’m a Hero for saving a girl from being kidnapped, but he’s asking too many questions for my liking. I know an accusing tone when I hear it. I don’t remember any of it and I need to find my way home.Author’s notes. Original work. First draft and update of chapters 1-16. Inspired by various fantasy games and books. Written with a focus on character development and interaction. Combat, progression, leveling, classes, but no numbers or stats. I’ll try to keep the language clean, PG-13, no smut. I’m in the US, writing in English. Almost fifty chapters are completed as I pen this introduction. I intend to complete this story or at least bring it to a proper ending. I have a destination in mind. I find as I write, doors and ideas open, while others close and are discarded. The tentative release schedule will be once a week. I'm new to creating. My apologies now while I learn. I have not settled on a book cover or artwork, still looking for something that fits. Registered & Protected #20VjeKDv2U6nynW6
