《Boundless [COMPLETE]》XX

The sun rays penetrated through my eyelids making me groan and raise my arm up to block out the sun. I could hear people whispering which made me force my eyes to open as panic ran through my veins.
Men in black suits.
Then, everything seemed to dawn upon me and I remembered last night's events. I wasn't caught!
I stood up, making them cautiously watch my every move before I sped out of there and tried to find an escape.
What was I thinking when I came here yesterday?
However, I was not fast enough and two of the men caught me within seconds.
"What's going on here?" asked a deep masculine voice. I fidgeted in my place as I tried to pull my arms away from the 2 men holding me.
"Sir, we found this...lady sleeping in one of the corners here. She tried to run away as soon as we saw her," said one of the men.
Damian's emerald green eyes suddenly met mine and made me freeze in my place.
"Why are you here?" he asked trying to maintain his cool.
"I-I.." I tried my best to let the words come out of my mouth but to no avail. I had no idea why I ended up here. Why was this the first place that came to mind?
He sighed, his patience clearly running out.
"Either you answer or I'm calling the cops for trespassing."
Rude.
"I came here to tell you everything you wanted to know," I finally settled on saying. I don't know what I was thinking. Why was this the first excuse that came to mind?
His face contorted to confusion for a second before it went back to being void of emotions.
"I thought there was no more to the story?"

"I lied. I don't think that's anything new though," I grumbled the last part.
It was then where he looked at my current state and realized how distorted I looked. My legs were swollen from all the running that I had done yesterday and my hair was disheveled in more ways than not.
"Are you okay?" at least he had the heart to wonder about my wellbeing. No, I was not okay. I wanted to scream at him and ask him what my state clearly shows but I held back my tongue. He didn't have anything to do with this so why would I be mad at him?
I nodded.
"I'm fine. We need to talk."
He did nothing but stare at me for the first few seconds before he gave in.
"We do," he said as he strode off and I wasted no time in following after him.

Lethal Combo (Weapon-Based Martial Arts Adventure)
Quang is a slacker that doesn't have much going for him except for his skills in Chinese kickboxing and his proficiency with a pair of nunchucks. Selene is broke but still manages to overestimate herself. The fact that she's knows Hapkido and how to handle a set of tonfas doesn't help either. Together, they're going to get into a lot of trouble. Just like everyone else in the sweltering West Coast city of Isla Lucrecia, Quang Nghiem is struggling to get by. His family’s business can’t make ends meet, his childhood friend has vanished without a trace and the self-imposed local “Union” threatens to tear down the family restaurant if they can’t pay their dues. Fortunately for him, part-time lifeguard and fellow out-of-practice martial artist Selene Olwagen has nothing better to do and is more than willing to help Quang track down his missing friend. However, there’s more lurking in the shadows of Isla Lucrecia than typical street gangs and criminals. Almost every chapter will have illustrations to accompany it. Heavily inspired by fighting games and classic martial arts films. Expect that kind of tone of going in. Updates twice a week, (mostly) on Wednesday and Saturday. Illustrations and covers were done by Ati: www.instagram.com/serious_ati/ Check out more art of Lethal Combo and my other projects here: www.instagram.com/fgc_checkmate/

*'The System's' POV* Egocentric humans, are the parasites of the plane "Eden" which they, with much audacity, refer to as Earth. They have done too much damage and destruction to Gaia, the embodiment of nature, the deital guardian mother. To name a few, overpopulation, creators of nuclear machinations, material wastage, environmental demolition, cruelty and obliteration of other species(even to themselves!) Unmatched and unchallenged by predators of equal standing, they festered and corrupted much of everything. Little do they know that Eden is dying. And so is the Otherworld. A world of myths and legends. It is therefore, through my righteous powers, let both worlds be fused to save both! As I decree, And so shall it be done! Now that I think about it, since pests such as yourselves are treating the world as your playground, why not make a game out of this? Ahahahaha!~ So! Amuse me humans. Tell me the tale of your quest for survival! Unlock the powers i've scattered all throughout the new world. Show me...the Lore of Vermins!

Jack, despite having greater than average aptitude, has never cultivated. Every time he has thought to try, he remembers the looks of hate and fear on the faces of friends and neighbors when they found out his affinities.

When he recieves an invitation to become an outer disciple of Frigid Mountain, the cultivating sect that watches over the area, he leaps at the chance to leave his village and the people who view him as a remnant of a past better left buried. Watch Jack as he attempts to rise above the sins of those that shared his features, and seeks to become a force for good in the world, rather than destruction. ----- Photo used for cover by Oussama Elhaidi
