| Usapang Torpe |
Pumasok ako sa classroom na nakapaskil na sa aking mga labi ang ngiti at pagka-excite.
"Mukhang maganda umaga natin, ah?" mapang-asar na tanong ni Raico sa akin kung kaya'y inirapan ko siya at tsaka tinungo ang aking upuan sa bandang gitna ng aming classroom.
Mang-aasar na naman ang lalaking iyon! Ha, anong akala niya sa akin, magpapa-apekto sa kanya? Pwes, hinding-hindi ako magpapa-apekto sa kanya lalo pa't maganda ang araw ko ngayon. Ayokong mabahiran ng pagkairita ang mukha ko kung kaya'y kailangan ko na lang siyang iwasan.
Napatuwid ako ng upo ng magsidatingan na ang iba naming mga kaklase at ang pagdating ng aming striktong teacher sa Filipino.
"Magandang umaga!" seryosong sambit ng aming guro at gaya ng nakagawian ay tumayo kaming lahat tsaka yumuko at bumati rin.
"Magandang umaga, guro!" sabay-sabay naming sabi bago kami umupo sa aming mga upuan. Nasa likod ko lang si Raico kung kaya'y dinig na dinig ko ang pagtawag niya sa aking pangalan kahit na nagsasalita ang aming guro sa harap.
"Shaina." mahina niyang bulong mula sa aking likuran. Hindi ko na lamang iyon pinansin ngunit paulit-ulit pa niyang tinatawag ang pangalan ko at ginagalaw na rin niya ang aking upuan kung kaya'y inis akong lumingon sa kanya.
"Magtigil ka, Raico kundi ay--" hindi ko na natuloy pa ang sasabihin ko ng pumagitna ang aming guro sa pagitan ng aming upuan ni Raico at nakataas ang kilay niya kaming tinignan.
Napapikit na lamang ako. Pakiramdam ko ay mapapatay ako ng katarayan ng aming guro kung kaya'y napayuko na lamang ako at hindi agad nakapagsalita.
"Nagtuturo ako sa harap ngunit bakit kailangan niyong mang-gambala sa kalagitnaan ng aking pagtuturo? Ganyan ba ang isa sa mga ugali ng mga estudyante?" saad ng aming guro at pareho kaming tinignan ni Raico.

"Ganito po ang ugali ng isang torpe, mahal na guro. Nagpapapansin sa taong kanyang gusto kahit pa sa kalagitnaan ng inyong pagtuturo." halos makatang sabi ni Raico kung kaya'y taka ko siyang tinignan mula sa aking pwesto.
Ano bang pinagsasasabi niya?
Lalo pang tumaas ang kilay ng aming guro na parang maaalis na ito sa kanyang noo sa sobrang taas.
"Kung gayo'y, bakit mo pa kailangang magpapansin sa taong gusto mo kung maaari mo namang sabihin ito sa kanya ng direkta?" saad ng aming guro at hindi ako makapinawalang tinignan siya. Bakit nagtatanong ng ganyan ang aming guro?
Nilibot ko ang aking tingin sa lahat ng aking mga kaklase ngunit sa amin din sila nakatingin. May ibang kinikilig. May iba namang nagbubulungan at walang pakialam sa kanilang paligid.
Nang tignan ko naman si Raico ay sakto naman na tumingin din siya sa akin kung kaya'y umiwas agad ako ng tingin at pasimpleng lumunok.
Hindi ko alam kung ano itong bagong nararamdaman ko sa aking puso. Parang kakaiba ang tibok nito at wala ito sa normal niyang estado. Mabilis ang bawat pintig na tila ba'y hinahabol ako ng napakaraming kabayo.
"Ayoko lang po kasing masaktan, aming guro sa kung ano mang sasabihin ng taong gusto ko pagkatapos kong sabihin na gusto ko siya sa kanya. Bago lang po kasi ang pakiramdam na nararamdaman ko, aming guro kung kaya'y hindi ko pa sigurado kung siya nga ba talaga. Ngunit handa na po akong magpakatapang, aming guro, masabi lamang sa kanya ang aking nararamdaman. Ayoko na pong maging mahina pa at hayaan na lang na iba ang pumasok sa puso niya. Kaya, Shaina, gusto kita."
Mahaba niyang saad at naiwan na lamang akong nakatulala sa mga mata niyang sinserong nakatingin sa akin. Kung gayo'y, ako ang taong kanyan g-gusto?
Nahihiya akong tumingin sa aming guro ngunit mas lalo pa akong napatulala sa kanyang huling sinabi.

"Mabuti at nasabi mo na sa kanya ang nararamdaman mo. Mas maganda kasing mas maaga mong sinabi kaysa ang maging huli na ang lahat at mawala na ang pag-asa mo sa kanyang puso." sabi niya rito at tsaka niya tinapik sa balikat si Raico.
"Sana ganyan lahat ng lalaki. Hindi torpe o mahina ang loob na sabihin sa taong gusto niya na gusto niya ito. Hindi katulad niya na hindi agad sinabi sa akin na gusto niya ako dahil naging huli na ang lahat," dumausdos ang luha mula sa mata ng aking guro at kita sa kanyang mga mata ang hinanakit at poot na kanyang nararamdaman.
"Dahil wala na ang pag-asang meron siya. Dahil may asawa na ako."
Hindi nga lang humugot ang aming guro kundi totoo talagang nangyari sa kanya ang ganoon.
Hindi naging sila ng taong gusto niya dahil nagpaka-torpe ito.

Tale of a Cruel World
A world where civilization is worthless and the meanderings of the wild bend humanity to its knees. This the tale of a cruel world, seemingly destined never to find peace. Through calamity after catastrophe, through silence and storm, its people have survived. Though, soon the final calamity will come. A clone of the strongest, most feared mage, Calamitas, bioengineered to only feel 'positive' emotions, and an ordinary hunter fighting to protect his dying sister begin their journey with a wish to rid a city of plaguebrought strife. (This is based on the Calamity Mod for Terraria, but should be perfectly readable to any normal viewers. To make its universe into a living, breathing place requires liberties enough to make this almost 'my own' world, so keep in mind that this isn't a very 'conventional' fanfiction(or maybe it is, I don't actually know the conventions).)

A special day has come, a day that Earth has awaited for oh so long. The day where they are finally going to try and run the reactor.

I won't go into too much detail, but only simply explain what happened. Due to some malfunctioning and incorrect assumptions, the reactor overproduced energy. Something which should have been impossible according to all the known knowledge of a really advanced Earth. I mean, they have even started colonizing planets. Have done countless simulations and even built test stations in space. Yet now, something had gone when they did the same on earth. Bizarre, right? This malfunctioning and imploding of the reactor caused a massive explosion due to the instability of space itself. This is also what allowed the story to exist, as our main characters were all transported. The method is not known, nor why they survived. We can say it is for the story, for now... They all now find themselves on Ethos, eating a mouthful of dirt as they struggled for breath. Some find their situation horrible, others find it relaxing and peaceful. Some see death, others see life. Despair and hope, madness and sanity on an edge. What has fate given you? Welcome to Ethos, a planet of magic.Welcome to Ethos, a planet orbiting an exotic star.Ethos wishes you luck in surviving. Maybe, just maybe... You can someday go back, or not. -----------------Release rate: 3 chapters(1200-1400 words) a week.

In ancient times, so long past that even the few immortals still around can barely remember, there existed beings who no one could stand against. Four entities of such might, reality eagerly bent to their very word. But they had a problem common men are not usually around for long enough to experience. The indifference of time. The ever-repeating cycle of events. Live a thousand lifetimes and everything is one big replay. Same events, different faces. Different events, same faces. Like a bad movie, on repeat forever. And yet, time presses on relentlessly, never stopping, never wavering. Pointless. Indifferent. The supreme ones would not accept it any more and so they decided to sleep, waiting for change to come. They separated the void, their home, from the other planes of existence and fell into a mindless state of unconscious bliss. Aeons came and went, until one day, change would finally come. That day is soon to arrive now, the veil concealing the League of the Void about to be lifted.
