《Son of Jaune Arc》Chapter 10 Taken
Advertisement
NO POV
Jr eyes slowly opened as he regained consciousness. The first thing he realized was that it was cold. When he could see again he realized that he was in some sort of warehouse. Slowly he got back on his feet, trying not fall over. He started to walk forward but suddenly plummeted to the ground. He felt something on his ankle. He looked over and saw a chain attached to his ankle, connected to a pillar.
Jr yanked on the chain but it wouldn't break. Seeing how there wasn't any chance of snapping it off he took in his surroundings. The warehouse was completely empty, except for the few pillars around the room.
Jr: Where am I? Why is it so cold?
Jr crouched into a ball to try and conserve heat.
Jr: Where's mommy?
He clutched his pants, he was after all just a little boy. A little boy separated from his mother and family and has no idea where he is.
???: So the son has awoken.
Jr looked up and saw a cloaked figure standing right in front of him. Startled, he jumped back and crawled backwards until his back met the pillar. The cloaked figure merely laughed.
???: Funny, back in Argus you had no problem running through grimm infested woods.
Jr: Who are you?
???: Very well, I'll show you.
The cloaked figure removed their hood, revealing short black hair and an amber eye. Her other eye being covered with an eyepatch.
Cinder: My name is Cinder Falls.
Jr: Cinder...Falls.
Jr had heard that name some where before. He searched through his mind until he realized what it was. His eyes widened.
Jr: You killed my dad.
Cinder chuckled.
Cinder: You're smart for such a little guy, but yes I am the one who killed your dad.

Without even thinking Jr lunged at Cinder, only to have the chain around his ankle pull him back. Cinder chuckled, and then kicked the boy right in the face. Jr now lied on the ground as he held his injured face, tears started to leak out from his eyes.
Cinder: Looks like you and the father have the same tendency to rush into battle without thinking. That's what got him killed, and you might end up the same way. Hard to believe that moron managed hook up with Pyrrha. Looks like her standards are low. I guess both of your parents are idiots.
Jr: Don't take about my mom and dad that way.
Cinder: Or what kid, you think you can beat me.
Cinder got right in front of Jr's face, mocking him. Suddenly Jr spat in her face. Cinder reared back as she wiped the saliva off her face. In an instant, her hands were wrapped around the young boy's throat as he was lifted in the air. His legs thrashed as he tried to free himself.
Cinder: Not so cocky now kid? How does it feel to be choked, to have your lungs feel like they are on fire as you start to realize you are getting closer to death.
Finally she dropped Jr onto the floor. Jr tried to regain his breath as Cinder glared at him.
Cinder: I have no problems killing you, but unfortunately I'll need you for my plan in order to work. So for now, enjoy being alive.
Cinder walked away, leaving Jr all alone in the dark and cold room. Jr merely curled up into a ball and cried. Waiting for this nightmare to end.
The past few days have felt long for Pyrrha. When they first arrived in Atlas, well snuck in, they had to snuck around Mantle and were soon confronted by grimm. Later on they were captured by the authorities and taken to Ironwood. Luckily for them he let them go and now has them working alongside him.

She now had free time to check up on what was going on in Argus. She found a phone and was now calling Saphron.
Saphron: Hello.
Pyrrha: Hey Saphron, it's me Pyrrha.
Saphron froze, she had yet to tell her of Jr's disappearance.
Saphron: H-Hey Pyrrha.
Pyrrha: You okay, you sound nervous.
Saphron: Well you see... oh what's the point of lying? Listen Pyrrha there is something I have to tell you.
Pyrrha: What is it, what happened?
Saphron: It's about Jr.
Pyrrha froze, she didn't want to find out what happened but had to know.
Pyrrha: What happened?
Saphron: I'm so sorry Pyrrha...Jr is missing. We have searched all over the city and even in the forest, he's no where to be found.
Pyrrha's whole world had stopped. The phone fell from her grip and landed on the ground.
Pyrrha: My son is missing.

Golden Age
In the latter half of the 21st century fully immersive virtual reality has finally become mainstream; a brand new game company called Aurum Productions promises to bring about the most realistic fantasy MMORPG ever created with their flagship title, Golden Age. A new player who goes by the name, D0n, loads into the world of virtual reality for the first time in his life thanks to these promises. But what catches his attention isn’t the wild monsters, the in-depth quest lines, or the ability to perform superhuman feats — what draws D0n at first is a bit more… mundane. Sure he’ll put in the time to level up his character… just as soon as he can finish applying the last layer of paint on his new coffee table… and after he lands that triple backflip he’s been trying to do all day… not to mention the lady next door was talking about a new horned rabbit stew recipe she was working on… Sure a world of swords and magic in virtual reality means a whole slew of fantastical experiences you can’t get anywhere else, but it’s not like those are going anywhere. And virtual or not, D0n is determined to live out his reality with a pace and vision that suits him best. It’s just a shame that his habit of a personalized play style has some far reaching consequences even Golden Age’s dev team could have never predicted. New Chapters uploaded every Wednesday.
