《Trust Me》Chapter 8.
Advertisement
Today I woke up from the nightmares as usual. It was still 4 am so I had some time to take a walk.
It was still dark outside, but I always found an odd peacefulness in the dark.
The slight breeze hit me as soon as I exited my trailer so I zipped my jacket and put my hands in my pockets and I decided to roam in the dark roads of Hungary.
I decided to get back as soon as I saw the sun rising. It was 6 o'clock so I needed to start getting ready.
As soon as I walked into the parking lot I heard a bark. I furrowed my brows in confusion as I didn't know we had a dog. I decided to follow the way the bark came from, and then I see this black and white American Akita, he was so fluffy and big that he looked like a bear. I got closer to him and let him sniff me and then he started licking me which made me laugh.
"Hello beautiful, who are you ?" I say to the dog in a puppy voice while getting down to his level and patting his head. He replied by licking me again.
"Kal" I hear someone shouting. The dog stopped licking me and turned back to face his owner, as did I.
His owner was no one else but Henry.
He let out a breath of relief as soon as he saw the dog.
"Seems he already found my replacement" he sighed jokingly as he petted him.
I chuckled and stood up to face him.
"What can I say? Dogs love me" I exclaimed proudly of myself.
"I can tell why" Henry replied with a wide grin.
He caught me off guard, I really didn't know what to reply to this, so I just smiled instead.

"So is Kal his name then? Like Kal-El? I ask him remembering that it was superman's name back in Krypton.
"Yeah, exactly. So you've watched man of steel ?" He was now paying full attention to me.
"Unfortunately" I said almost under my breath and looking a down hoping he didn't hear.
But he did.
"Unfortunately?" He was furrowing his brows in confusion.
"All I'm saying is that Tony would be a better name" I folded my arms as I chuckled.
"Tony? As in Tony Stark ?" He raised an eyebrow getting my hint easily.
I nodded in agreement.
"So you're a Marvel fan, my mortal enemy" he put his hands in his waist.
"I'm not an enemy if there's nothing to compete with to start with" I paused for a minute "cause nothing compares to Marvel's greatness" I continued, enjoying myself.
"Ohh, we're so having this conversation after filming is done" he was pointing his finger in my face jokingly.
"Its on" I say mimicking his movements.
He walked me to my trailer to get my camera and then we silently walked to the studio where we waved goodbye for now.
Since I couldn't see Freya nor Anya on the set I decided to put my earphones on and get to work as usual.
I was lost deep in the music when someone tapped on my shoulder almost scaring me.
I turn around and I gasped. I saw a hunchback girl with raven hair reaching barely her shoulders, a kind of deformed face, and purple contacts.
She started laughing. "It's Anya you dick", she couldn't stop laughing.
I rolled my eyes at her "I was deep in the zone, you scared me you dick" I tried to mimic her tone. And then we just burst out laughing.
I was the one to first stop laughing. "Wait, I thought you started shooting tomorrow?" I asked as I remembered the talk we had yesterday.

She nodded her head in agreement "I do, but we had to practice the makeup before my big debut I also really wanted to scare you " she was still laughing. I rolled my eyes and laughed at her.
"Okay, I'm going to take this all off and come back to keep you company, deal ?"
I just nodded my head in agreement.
This time I took my earphones off in case Anya wanted to scare me again, and got back to work. They were shooting the fighting scene between Geralt and Renfri, which took quite some time as They had to switch back and front from the stunt double to the actress.
I could hear Anya behind me huffing in displeasure.
She comes next to me "ughh Lucy, I really hope she fucks off after this" she sounded frustrated.
"Why do you hate her so much? She seems alright, she is focused on work and Henry seems to be in good terms with her" I looked at Anya clearly confused.
"No" she cut me off "You're focused at work and you're not a selfish prick, you didn't come in and start complaining about everything. And about the Henry thing, I don't know, I feel something fishy going on there . " she huffed again as she glared at Lucy.
I furrowed my brows in confusion letting her know that I didn't understand what she said. She got my hint "all I'm saying is that I don't think Henry really wanted her here, but he has to accept her and work with her because he is a true professional" was all she replied to me.
I took her words into consideration as I saw Henry on set starring back at me with pain in his eyes.

A cataclysm occurred in the world, which rolled back its development for many centuries. The power in it returned to the church, because otherwise, as the "2nd coming", the event that destroyed the earth, cannot be called. A big war is brewing, humanity has already mastered all places suitable for life, and the rulers are trying to expand their possessions at the expense of others. Our hero, Marzio, lives in one of the free Italian towns. He is the bastard of a major feudal lord who made his name in the war. His mother, despite her righteous lifestyle, practices quackery. For which one day, on an unremarkable and ordinary day, she is sentenced to death. Seeing the burning of his own mother and losing faith in people, Marzio begins his journey. Thanks to the connections of his small family, he escapes from the city and, together with a trade caravan, moves to another city, where he plans to enter the academy and become stronger. Along the way, he contacts people who call themselves "diggers" - plunderers. So, he finds himself in the ruins of the old world, which was much more developed and finds more and more evidence of the terrible secret of the true cause of the fall of the world, which the church so zealously hides. But the second coming gave not only the suffering and wrath of God, but also monsters from mutated animals. In a fight with them, he falls into the eyes of the detachment of the sacred order, after which they, having estimated its potential, take it to themselves and, with their patronage, he enters the academy. At the academy, he meets new friends, and his origin is revealed there. Since he is the only male descendant, he can claim the title and possession of his father. Thanks to this, our hero receives a certain amount of attention from the opposite sex. After training, Marzio learns about the so-called knowers who are aware of the artifacts of the ancients and how things truly are. New prospects are opening up for him, but also new dangers. He becomes part of the squad that helped him. And using modern for us and futuristic for the Middle Ages, small arms are engaged in protecting the secrets of the church and persecuting a group calling themselves apostates, who want to reveal all the cards that will drive the world into a new branch of chaos and the fight against the regime. As cover, his order sided with minor rulers to fight the old-fashioned way and maintain the balance of power. More and more secrets are revealed to Marzio, and a serious intriguing game unfolds behind him, into which he is sucked in with more and more force. But the hero is the hero, in order to grow and cope with the twists and turns of fate, he stoically withstands all trials and even not knowing about the threats from the east and another continent continues to go forward to meet his fate, for the sake of freedom, revenge and struggle.

This fiction belongs to the same universe as Ancient Blood. English is not my native language, so please don't be harsh. This story is an adaption of an idea, that we, a friend of mine and me, have developed over a few months while taking a break from learning. Some parts were written by Emberspark. Thank you for allowing me to work with your ideas and letting me publish this as a whole. Updates... I will try to frequently update both of my fictions... Well in case you are interested I post it on Scribble hub, too. I really don't steal from myself 😂

Memoirs of an old traveler:First Rebirth
If life gives you lemons, you make lemonade. Life sometimes gives you handouts and sometimes not, how would you take control of your life or would you let yourself be adrift on the sea. This is my story of rebirth, the start of a journey between the worlds. Will you take heart from the lessons I have learned or will you take without giving and continue the cycle? ___________________________________ A story with my take on reincarnation, expect somewhat of a more serious writing style but still a bit casual. I like to story build, to craft a universe, so don't expect quick action. Can be a bit of a heavy info read at times so if you don't like that best steer away. Chapters are expected to be at least 1 a week perhaps 2 a week depending on response and how much of an inspiration I get. Credits to multiple authors(too many to count/remember) of both web/light novels and the authors here on RRL for inspiration.

Meaning usually there will be 3 chapters a week, there will be weeks with 4 chapters. Anyway it's just easier that way to set the timer for the chapter releases Disclaimer: This is a work of fiction and any characters or events that might resemble something in reality is a coincidence that's weirder than krillen beating jiren.
