《Origin of Flames》24 Bella's Adventure!
Advertisement
I wince, grab myself and quake at the pulsing and seething pain. I weakly shout, "Bella?" I sniffle and shout in pain. Did she leave? Oh, right. She went to get food. Oh no, she'll die in that cold. She doesn't even have a thick coat yet like Calico! I reach out to pet her in a sudden daze. I close my hands and hug myself. Damn, I wish she was here.
Ah, this is the life, being cozy in this coat of hers. She asks, "What is your name, little cat?" "I don't like names." She teases, "Oh, come now! Having a name is the best!" I tilt my head, "Not a chance." "Whenever someone says Marigold! Marigold! I get all giddy inside." "Not me." Her baby kicks me, again, she jumps in reaction, "Not yet- oh! There's that old soul!" A hefty country accent echoes through the blizzard, "Marigold, what brings you here?" "Hello Gus!" Deep whiffs, oh no! That better not be a mangy dog! "Is that a cat I smell?" Another kick from Marigold's stomach forces me out her pelt with a loud meow.
Looking up, big droopy ears, fatty brown fur and the worst of all! A big long snout! "Hello Cat." I arch my back and my hairs stick up. I hiss, yet he just glares on those appalling stubby legs, shriveled snout. Marigold puts a foot down, "Enough! Both of you!" "Why'd you bring a cat here, Marigold!?" I growl, "I'm hunting Stonekin, that's why!" He closes his eyes and smiles, "There's no damn way a cat like you even touched him!" Marigold jumps, "Gus, there's a heavy blood trail! It's gotta be him! That means food for you." He jumps away through the snow, "No chance in hell I'm helping." I look down, this is pointless. It's not like I owe that human anything!

Gus stops and takes deep sniffs in the air, then he turns around and sniffs closer towards me. My hairs stick up and he snarls, "You have a human friend?" I look away and lick my paw, "Nope." He pokes into my fur and I jump away as he takes a deep whiff. "Is he alive?!" "Not for long." He sniffs again, "That IS Stonekin's blood. That human couldn't have taken him on, unless-" He exhales, "I'll help, but for the human's sake, not you, trash bin." I growl, Trash Bin!? He bites lightly into my scruff and I go limp. He then marches and hops through the snow, "Get back home, Marigold!" "Stay safe, you two!"

The Other World
Every living being becomes a Traveler while sleeping. This means that part of what is called “consciousness” detaches from the rest, carrying us towards worlds located in parts still unknown of the universe. Most of these places have things that inhabit only our dreams. Worlds were physics is not the same one we know. Where magic exists and mythological creatures walk amongst the people. Most of the Travelers become mere spectators in this world, unable to influence it. With some luck, they can go back to their bodies and wake up with the memory of a pleasant dream. Others do not have the same luck and end up stuck in the limbo, unable to return home. There is one other category of Travelers. These are the ones strong enough to create bodies and separate themselves from the life they had before. These Travelers start a new life without ever thinking about returning to the place they once called “home”.

The Chronicles of Tyfoon, The Chosen One
For hundreds of years the galaxy was kept in order due to the diligent work of The Council, the number one authority in the whole galaxy, and their appointed guardian of the galaxy, The Chosen One. The Chosen One was the face of order and justice in the galaxy and was the head over all the galactic military forces, answering only to The Council themselves. But after a rebel enemy force known as the Doomaki rise to power, they overtake The Chosen One and his military forces, known as The Peacekeepers. One final battle leaves The Peacekeepers outnumbered and The Chosen One is overtaken and presumed dead. Just when it seems the galaxy might fall to the evil reign of the Doomaki, they disappear without a trace. With the thread of the Doomaki gone, the crippled galaxy begins to try and rebuild and find a new Chosen One to lead them and prepare for whatever new threats may come. Tyfoon, the Chosen One's only child, was born during the battle that his father disappeared in, and the ensuing battle left him without a mother as well, dying soon after childbirth. 18 years from that night pass and Tyfoon is ready to follow in his father's footsteps and serve The Council, perhaps to be The Chosen One when he is ready. But this plan is cut short when the Doomaki resurface and threaten everything dear to Tyfoon. Tyfoon must rise up and finish the task his father failed: defeat the Doomaki once and for all.
