《Solangelo oneshots》Above the sea

A/N Here's part two of Under the sea
It's believed that there is a cave where you will see your significant others face.
I want to ask Will if that also works when it's a boy, but I don't.
'I know where it is but I haven't actually been there. To be honest, I'm kind of scared.' Will says with an awkward smile.
Ten minutes later I'm staring in awe at the beauty in front of me. No, it's not Will, although he is hot. Wait, did I just think that. It's the island I'm staring at. It clearly was once a volcano but it had died out and was withered away by the weather now
Will chuckles: 'your mouth is hanging open.' We swim towards the shore but just before the water gets to shallow Will dives down into an almost invisible hole between two rocks.
When I'm in the cave I'm kind of disappointed. The only thing I see is Wills face (although that's not bad) in the reflection of thousands of crystals shattered around the cave. Will is sitting on a rock where you can oversee the entire cave. I sit down next to him.
'Will I think you've been lied to or tricked. The only thing I see is your face.' I say but I think your beautiful face.
Will starts to giggle which soon turns into a fit of laughter that echoes around the cave. It sounds like music to my ears. 'I didn't tell you everything about the legend'; he says. ' The legend explains that the crystals in the cave don't show your reflection but the image of your significant other. If you say you see my face just like I see yo..'; He suddenly blushes furiously and scratches his neck:' Just as I see yours......

For a few moments I stare at him in stunned silence while I feel the heath spreading over my face. 'I think the cave is here, my dad told me about it.' An all too familiar voice suddenly drifts in from outside the cave. Before we can react, a blonde mermaid pops up and next to it, and I silently groan in utter disbelieve, Percy. He stares at me, then at will and at me again.
'Er...... Hey Nico. I didn't think anybody would be up here. This is Annabeth, my um.... Girlfriend.' Percy looks extremely awkward, and possibly even more than me.
'Hey I'm Will, son of king Apollo. You must be Percy, son of Poseidon. And you, judging from your appearance Annabeth, must be a daughter of Athena.'
Will sure is very observant. Annabeth waves and says: yes I am. Nice to meet you two. Hope you have a nice day here. Percy mumbles that they will be back later and they turn around and leave.
-----------three hours later----
The entire evening has been awkward. But when I'm about to fall asleep, I hear Wills voice in the dark: 'Nico about earlier, no never mind.' I still turn around and get frightened by Wills face really close to mine. He leans forward and without hesitation I lean in and kiss him.

Tales From the Terran Republic
We tried, you know… We really did. We tried so hard to be… better… We actually were better once. No, seriously. We were enlightened, generous, peaceful… Stop laughing! We were! We were peaceful, dammit! No, I’m not “tugging your winglets.” It’s true! Look, if you’re going to be like that, I’ll just push the launch button right now. See ya, don’t wanna be… Oh, you ARE interested after all? Ok. Hey, I just got word that your captain will be ok. We were able to get him into a med pod quick enough… Of course, we tried to save him. Just what sort of people do you think we are?... Now that was harsh… completely accurate, mind you… but harsh. Anyway, like I was saying, we were a prosperous, peaceful people, and war had been nothing but a distant memory for over five hundred years before it happened... Before Yellowstone happened! You don’t mean to tell me that you didn’t know about that… massive supervolcano? Blew the Hell out of our planet? Two years where nothing grew?… Anyway, that’s what started it, the Sol Wars… Oh, you have heard about those, huh? Well, needless to say, all that enlightened, generous, and peaceful didn’t exactly make it through the two years of complete famine and the wars that followed… Maybe it’s more accurate to say the enlightened, generous, and peaceful among us didn’t survive… (laughs)… You’re right. It does explain a lot, doesn’t it? Probably for the best, though. “Enlightened” and “peaceful” aren’t really all that useful out here in the galaxy at large, are they? That reminds me; thanks for the ship. You guys did a great job with this one. Oh, don’t be like that. At least it was us what got you and not one of the really messed groups like the Harlequin or the Black Angels. We’re just going to take your shit. It could be worse… trust me... Well, anyway, we loaded the life pods down with some good food, and you guys can drink alcohol, right? We put in a couple of fifths in there, too. It’s about forty percent ethanol, so be warned. Most species will want to dilute that. We’ll drop your wounded off somewhere safe once they are stable. Your fleet patrols this area fairly regularly, and we’ll drop the distress beacon right before we jump… Well, It’s been fun and no hard feelings, right?… Oh, you want to know some more? Sure. I got time to kill… Let me tell you about this one pirate and her crew. They’re Terran scum, but they are still… Why do we hate the Terrans? Hoo Boy… How much time you got? *** It’s the thirty-second century, and humanity is now part of a galactic civilization comprised of hundreds of worlds. Humanity has been savaged by natural disaster and war and has been fractured into several separate populations, all of which loathe each other (some things never change). This is a gritty drama-driven rambling tale that swings between action, drama, horror, and plenty of very, very dark comedy. Warning: contains adult situations, absolutely horrible language, bathroom humor, implied ultra-violence, actual ultra-violence, drugs, alcohol, pirates, mercs, xeno prostitutes, moral ambiguity, deranged AI's with identity issues, giant commie space slugs, and a poor little frog girl who just wants to sell coffee. Updates twice weekly on Tuesday and Friday. *** Note: This story can get rough. Those warning tags? They aren't for show. I recently received a review and as a result I want to make one thing clear. Portraying something is NOT endorsing it! Many "heavy" topics are touched upon and just because a character says or does something does not imply that the author feels the same way. I selected the "Anti-Hero Lead" and "Villainous Lead" tags for a reason. Rule number one of this story is "no good guys". A good description of the story is, "bad people doing bad things to worse people". There are a few good characters, here and there, but they are the exception to the rule. If you want a hard-hitting, exciting, gritty sci-fi story that doesn't pull any punches, or shies away from "difficult" concepts, welcome! If you are set on a pure and noble knight that runs around and slays conveniently evil monsters and rescues totally innocent princesses... or your sensibilities are easily offended... You're not going to be happy with this one.
8 682Tale of an Anomaly
It was supposed to be a normal weekend, staying a little bit longer in bed, not worrying about work, spending quality family time, or partying late night for some people and hoping to get a little lucky. Then why the hell were half the buildings disappearing right in front of them? What was the big message in the sky supposed to mean? And why the fuck was there a dragon in the middle of the city?! Follow Bharat, an ordinary freelancer out for a job, who, after getting caught up in an unfortunate series of events finds himself all alone in a forest full of dangerous creatures out for his blood, along with a strange screen in front of him that felt awfully similar to the games he used to play and the books he used to read as a kid. Maybe his countless hours of gaming weren’t useless after all! Release Schedule: 4 days a week About the author: Just an amateur writer from India who started writing as hobby during quarantine. English is not my native language, so any kind of feedback is most welcome. Don’t take the tags and warnings too seriously though. It’s just to prevent flames later, just in case.

Just the story of Karl who will become a strong and rich noble (or perhaps better) after being reincarnated into a fantasy world. *The summary may cause irrational hate for an unknown reason* *Greatly inspired by korean novels* *This novel is maybe written in Engrich* *Probably not very original* *Certainly not meant to be well-written* *Invisible Dragon is perhaps better than this novel* *Nobody forces you to read so you are reading this at your own risk* *You are supposedly not supposed to read this novel* *You read this and didn't like it? No problem*
