《Bloody Heart 3》Глава 24
Advertisement
Мангл сидела, осторожно обхватив Кэтрин за плечи, пока та плакала. Это был первый раз, когда черноволосая была так расстроена. Девушка с белыми волосами осторожно поглаживала по голове свою подругу, опустив собственные ушки.
- Почему Салли?,- в который раз кричала она, всхлипывая и вытирая красные от слез глаза.
- Кэтрин, все будет хорошо, я тебе обещаю,- успокаивала ее другая, хотя сама не знала, что сейчас с ребенком, Пойдем со мной.
Подхватив подругу, Мангл отправилась к заднему входу из пиццерии, который вел на улицу. Солнце ярко светило, слепив глаза, а чистое голубое небо, покрытое перистыми облачками только портили настроение девушки. Подружки легли на землю. Мягкая и тонкая трава щекотала тело, окуная в воспоминания о детстве. Кэтрин тяжело дышала, чувствуя запах свежей травы, постепенно приходя в себя.
- Помнишь Тима?, - начала разговор Лили, сложив руки на животе.
- Тот, что с задней парты кидал в меня карандашами?У меня после каждого урока спина болела,- ответила она с неким возмущение, от чего между бровями образовались маленькие морщинки.
- Но он тебя спас от дворовой собаки, на этот раз ответа не последовало, а черноволосая приняла сидячее положение.
- Он просто за мной бегал.
Пару минут подруги сидели в тишине. Легкий ветер разносил листья вокруг, подбрасывая их в хаотичном танце, начало осени как никак.Если бы не новая внешность Лилии, она могла бы с уверенностью сказать, что вернулась в студенческие годы.
- Иногда кажется, что все это просто сон. Каждый раз открывая глаза, я надеюсь, что он не закончится, - протянула лиса и скривила рот в подобии ухмылки.
- Если это сон, то ты рано или поздно проснешься. Тогда радуйся тому, что имеешь, радуйся каждому днюЯ, проведенному с теми, кого любишь и по настоящему ценишь.

Дверь с шумом распахнулась и в ней показался яркий поток света. В комнату вошли двое мужчин, бегая глазами по помещению. Глаза желтоволосого парня зрачки сузились, больше походя на маленькие звездочки. Скотт прошел вперед, наконец заметив своего ребенка.

- Салли!, радостно закричал он, собираясь бросится к дочери, но дорогу ему преградил Спрингтрап.
Салли нервно сглотнула. Когда заяц собирался подойти к друзьям, девочка спрыгнула с рук Голдена и встала перед ним, расставив руки. Робко сжав ручки в кулаки, девочка сделала серьезное лицо, от чего создавалось ощущение, что она вот вот начнет плакать.
- Сал, что ты делаешь?,- с хрипотцой спросил Трап.
- Я не пущу тебя к мишке, - со стороны это выглядело странно. Девочка ростом чуть меньше метра угрожает двухметровому мужчине. Спрингтрап решил не перечить девочке, надеясь, что она бросится к отцу, и постарался смягчить взгляд.
- Сал, мы не тронем твоего "друга", мы просто заберем тебя. Знаешь, как переживает мама?
"Мама...",- пронеслось в детском сознании, но это не остановило ее. Девочка твердо решила.
- Нет.
- Почему нет, милая? Этот гад что-то тебе сделал?,- Скотт сделал несколько шагов вперед.
- Нет, папа. Помнишь, что ты говорил? Если что-то дорого тебе - защищай, как бы трудно, как бы больно это не было, не сдавайся, даже если приходится рисовать жизнью, защищай изо всех сил,- девочка устремила свой взгляд в пол, быстро говоря и путая некоторые слова,- Он мне дорог.

Coeus?
Author's Comment: I was asked about reading my work on other sites. The answer is simple: Currently I am not active in any other networks than royalroadl.com. Only here, I correct mistakes and errors. If you read it anywhere else and have to pay for it, or have to deal with an annoying amount of advertisement, You Are Being Betrayed. You would do good if you make other people in that network aware of it. This is a free project of mine for the purpose of having fun. And if people try to make money with it you shouldn't bother visiting their website. The only one whom I actually allowed to have my work on his website is Armaell who invested the time to compile them into pdf. (http://armaell-library.net/author/andur) ——————————————————————————————— Reading Order of the Multiverse-Books ——————————————————————————————— About a boy who isn’t quite normal and doesn’t see himself as a human being, but is taught differently as he finds out about the world's secrets. Though not everyone is happy about his existence. This is inteded to evolve into a full blown space opera with elements of magic thrown into it. ——————————————————————————————— The OneShot goes FullStory. Trying to go a little more SciFi and alternate reality this time. I am not entirely sure how this fiction will turn out. And I am not sure on the tags either. They may change. Bear with it. As always, how chapters turn out is up to my mood.

He is thrown directly into danger as a twist of fate places him in an area designated, by the automated systems of the Hegemony, for the containment and disposal of eldritch energy - areas also known as dungeons. Without the aid of tutorials, or the orientation areas commonly known as "newbie zones," Augustus will have to make his own way to survive in unforgiven circumstances. He will face monsters, aliens, other humans, and his own darkness as he struggles to grow strong enough to face the countdown to the apocalypse. *** Author's Note: The rewritten version of Book 1 is here: https://www.royalroadl.com/my/fiction/19458

Saga of Fallen Kings, Book I: The Revenant Prince
The Philosopher King once conquered the known world, his power seemingly unlimited and his armies inexhaustible. Since that time his might has slowly unravelled, and his once steadfast empire has begun to crack, splinter and devour itself. In the isolated Southern Realms, where even magic has abandoned them, none of that matters. For years it has been filled with warring kingdoms, where as many kings die to the blade as to old age, and constant battles tear apart the land. When one such kingdom invades its old enemy, the King and his heir, Prince Caden, are killed. Unable to accept the loss of his family Prince Arian is broken, and when the Philosopher King stretches out his hand in aid, Arian takes it without a second thought. When Caden wakes from death, he's different. His eyes and soul have changed, and he finds a world filled with friends who no longer trust he's even human. Suddenly thrust onto the throne and indebted to the Philosopher King, Caden has no choice but to keep going - he must finish what his father started, and try to survive the machinations of the figure who now owns his fealty. Meanwhile something beyond death stirs for him, desiring nothing more than to drag him back into its embrace. Author's Note: This story used to be known as "A King of his Own", but after some consideration I have decided to rebrand it. The first reason is that I was growing increasingly dissatisfied with the title. The second is that I have come increasingly to view this story as a 'saga' containing multiple 'books' rather than one long, continuous publication, and as I did so I realized that as I was quickly getting to a point in the story where I wanted the first 'book' to end. This doesn't mean I'm going back on the things I said below - they're just going to continue in the next book of the Saga of Fallen Kings. :) Also, be aware that I do plan to edit this at some point. Though I take care to squash out any obvious errors when I proof-read, and do simple edits in that process, at some point I'm almost certainly going to do large edits that might significantly change parts of the story. Old author's notes: This started as a completely random writing session. There was no purpose or direction, but as I kept typing an entire world began to form in my mind that I knew I had to write about. My plan is to turn this story into a veritable medieval fantasy epic that spans an entire world, follows multiple character and storylines, and takes place over many years. The story has quite a grounded, almost 'realistic' start, but many more fantastical elements will be introduced, expanded upon and become central to the narrative. I have ideas for this story that make me genuinely excited and I hope you enjoy my work as much as I enjoy writing it, and join me on what will hopefully become a truly massive fantasy epic. If you do enjoy this story please consider following, rating and leaving a review. I'm also happy to answer any questions or comments you have.
