《Future untold》The Mission
Advertisement
It had been weeks since Barry locked Killer Frost away. No one new was in town. Cicada's body was buried under many feet of dirt, where he can't hurt anyone. Now the team was figuring out how to destroy the dagger. But today they had bigger fish to catch.
Carry stood on the gravel above the city. Nora was nearby.
"Did Thawne know this would happen?" She asked.
"Ca-"
"Did Thawne know?"
"I don't know."
"You have to tell them."
"Thawne sa-"
"Thawne is manipulating you!"
"He is helping me defeat Cicada!" Carry laughed at that.
"And created a much worse Cicada in the process!"
"We are working on fixing that."
"If you aren't going to tell the team the truth, I will." Carry turned around and walked toward the door. Nora sped around and blocked her way.
"I can't let you do that."
"Get out of my way Nora!" Carry pushed her backwards and attempted to run to the door. However, Nora quickly recovers and pulls her back.
"I'm sorry for this then Carry." Nora threw her into a nearby air conditioner. Carry cried out in pain as her back hit the AC. "Thawne needs this mission to be a secret."
Nora sped to Carry and lifted her from the ground. She threw her to the otherside of the roof. Carry screamed as a metal pole went through her shoulder.
"Y-you going t-to kill me?"
"I'm doing what I have to to complete the mission."
"What is going on?" Barry asked as the steady beeping picked up pace.
"Carry's vitals are off the charts. Where did she say she was going?" Iris studied the monitor.
"She said she was going to bed," Caitlin answered as she went over to the monitor and tapped it a few times.

"Then what is she doing on the Amertek building?" Iris said as she watched Carry's tracker stay completely still.
"I'm on it, find out where Nora is, she could be in danger too." Barry changed clothes and sped up the side of the Amertek skyscraper and onto the roof. "I don't see her."
"She's 16 feet in front of you. Barry, her pulse is slowing down." Caitlin spoke through his earpiece. He stepped around the AC unit and found Carry who laid on her side, facing away from him. A puddle of blood surrounded her.
"Carry!" He went to her and rolled Carry onto her back. She sputtered up blood as a result of her wounds. There was massive trauma all over her body, including a hole in Carry's shoulder.
"You're gonna be okay," he said before speeding back to Star Labs.
"Oh my god Carry!" Caitlin and Iris ran to her as Barry set a now unconscious Carry on the exam table. "There's s-so much blood, I don't even know where to start!" Tears uncontrollably poured out of her eyes. Barry was at her side in seconds.
"Hey, hey, take a breath, your daughter needs you to take a moment and think." Caitlin nodded, took a deep breath with Barry and wiped her tears.
"I need to take out the chip."
"Won't that bring out an unwanted friend?"
"It's the only way to save her, so give me a scalpel."

Familiar In Chains
Familiar: A magical beast of one type or another which forms a magical bond with a mage who possesses a similar magical trait. Thus entering into a master-servant contract. Due to their abilities as a familiar, they possess all of the intelligence and knowledge of a human alongside the instincts and nature of a beast. Sourced From: My First Familiar Assigned text for third-year mages For young mages, obtaining their first familiar is a momentous occasion. Their magic forms a symbiotic relationship with their bonded mage, amplifying their's strengths and covering for their weaknesses. Often the strength of one's familiar is a key factor in how far a mage will go in their career. They are considered a necessity in the Empire of Afaron and the surrounding nations. Once familiars were caught in the wild and brought back for training and bonding. Eventually, however, the wild magic beasts were hunted to the point that they could no longer be found. Those that had been bred domestically would often produce magicless offspring. Nowadays the mages of Afaron know nothing of how familiars are bred, raised, and tamed. Once every three years, the Order of Beast Tamers come down from their mountain strongholds with caravans loaded with familiars purchased by noble families and magic academies. The Beast Tamer's generosity hides a dark truth. If you can't find a magic beast, make one. (Warning: Mild Nudity)

So here’s the deal: my name is Kihri Vyas, and I’m dead. (That’s not really important, it happened ages ago, but it’s good to have the context.) Anyway, me and my sister Zarah (the only person who can see or hear me) have basically been on our own since I kicked the bucket, surviving on the streets of Kaila and sort of just being miserable and bored and tired a lot. I mean, I haven’t, cause I’m dead, but she has. It sucks, but that’s business as usual for us. What isn’t B-A-U is that a bunch of other homeless folks have been disappearing in the last few months, and some of them have been turning up with anatomically-improbable, but extraordinary fatal, injuries. Cops don’t give a shit, of course, and my sister’s a boneheaded bleeding heart, so we’ve been investigating them ourselves. And, well, we’ve found a bunch of weird shit. Stuff made of solid light, ghost attack dogs, people glowing black, somehow, some kind of living robot… Actually, you know what? It’s probably easier if you see for yourself. blacklight is a modern fantasy story it's not about being gay but rest assured its gay as fuck nevertheless it updates fridays at 2 p.m. AEST on its own site at https://spectrochroma.wordpress.com/ Chapters are uploaded here one week after they finish on the main site.
