《The Beginning of the Age of Heroes》Chapter 19
Advertisement
The next day the team of heroes were in the throne room again and this time they had to tell Ras the names that they had come up with. This was the point of no return. Once they had come up with their new names there was no going back to the way that things used to be. They would be leaving their old lives behind and become full members of the League of Assassins.
"So, have you all come up with your new names?" Ras asked.
"Yes we have master. I am going to go by the Arrow." Oliver said.
"Very well. What about the rest of you?" Ras asked.
"I will be going by Black Canary, master." Laurel said.
"I will be going by White Canary, master." Sara said.
"I will be going by Artemis, master." Thea said.
"I will go by the Flash, master." Barry said.
"I will be going by Supergirl, master." Kara said.
"I will go by Athena, master." Shado said.
"Those are all good names, but where did you come up with Supergirl and the Flash. Those names don't make much sense to me to tell you the truth." Ras said.
"They are just names. I will go by Supergirl because I am faster and stronger than I look, while Barry is the Flash because he has above average speed." Kara said.
"I guess we will have to see about that. Now, get back to your training. You still have much to learn." Ras said as the team knew that was him saying that it was time for them to leave the throne room.
. . .
When they got to the room that they would be training in that day, Nyssa was there waiting for them. "Those were some interesting names that you came up with. I like them though. So, let's get to your training. Let's see how much you picked up from yesterday first." Nyssa said and the heroes nodded as they showed her what they remembered from the previous day.

"Very good. You have all remembered what you were taught yesterday. Let's work on some new techniques. If all of you keep picking up your skills like you are doing now, you will be out in the world dispensing justice very soon." Nyssa said.
"I am glad that we are doing so well, mistress. We are willing to learn everything that you teach us. We will use everything that you teach us to the best of our abilities for the rest of our lives." Laurel said.
"Yes you will. I have no doubt about this because of the dedication that you have been showing as of right now. You might well end up some of the best assassins that have been taught here once all of your training is complete." Nyssa said.
"We will do our best, mistress." Thea said and Nyssa couldn't help but smile at the young girl.
"Good. I will show you some new techniques and then you will work on them by using them against each other. I find it is easier to learn when you use the techniques against a real person instead of something fake." Nyssa said and the heroes nodded as she started to show them the new techniques for the day.
. . .
After training was done for the day, the team was now with all the other assassins in the mess hall where they would be eating dinner. "Wow, I didn't realize I was this hungry until I saw all of this food." Barry said.
"Barry, since you got your speed you will eat just about everything that is put in front of you." Oliver said.
"I know. It must have something to do with the speed. Maybe I have a faster metabolism now than I did. Kara can't talk. I think she eats as much as I do." Barry said.

"She always has. It must be something about her DNA as well." Thea said.
"It is. Anyways, I am hungry. Let's eat unless you are wanting to give Barry and me your food." Kara said with a smile which made the other friends laugh as they started to eat their food so that Barry and Kara wouldn't steal their food.
. . .
Later that night they were all in their rooms and laying on their beds completely worn out. Even Kara was worn out which should really tell a person how hard this training that they were going through really was.
"I normally don't get tired, but there is something about this training that is wearing me out. I don't know what it is though." Kara said.
"I know what you mean. I had gotten to where I didn't get too tired now that I have my speed, but like you I am completely worn out." Barry said.
"I know we had plans to do some stuff tonight, but I am too tired for that right now. Can we push that back for a while? I just want to go to sleep." Kara said.
"I agree. I am too tired to even think about that right now. We can do that stuff anytime though. So yeah, I am fine with pushing that back for now." Barry said.
"I knew there was a reason that I loved you." Kara said as she kissed Barry and then laid down and fell to sleep instantly.
"I love you too, Kara." Barry said as he laid down and was sleeping just as fast as Kara was.
. . .
"Damn, I can't believe how sore I am." Sara said.
"I know. I don't think I have ever been this tired and sore in my life. I guess that means that we are learning new ways to do things and that is what is making us sore." Shado said.
"That makes sense. I think I am going to pass out right now if that is ok with you." Sara said and Shado nodded as she watched Sara lay down and saw that she was already sleeping.
"Good night my love." Shado said as she laid down and went to sleep as well.
. . .
Oliver had just walked into the room with Laurel and they found Thea completely asleep in her bed. "I remember watching her sleep when she was a baby. It was my way of protecting her. I know that it might sound weird, but I still do that sometimes because I don't know what I would do without her in my life." Oliver said.
"It's not weird that you love your sister, Ollie. I used to do the same thing to Sara until she found me doing it one night." Laurel said.
"I guess that makes sense. So, how about we get some sleep as well. We are going to have to be up bright and early in the morning for more training." Oliver said.
"I think that is for the best. I am so tired I don't think that I can stand anymore." Laurel said.
"Yeah, same with me. Good night Laurel. I love you." Oliver said as he kissed Laurel.
"I love you too, Ollie. Good night." Laurel said as they went to sleep.

The Head That Wears The Crown
It's a tale as old as time. Boy goes to funeral. Boy gets sucked into a different world. Boy has to lead a settlement. Boy has to lead a settlement? Boy has to lead a settlement. This is a story about that settlement, and some other stuff. Maybe. Disclaimer: Not sure if it qualifies enough for a gore tag. There is a description of someone's death somewhere in this, but I don't think it is descriptive enough to justify a gore tag. Disclaimer part deux: I initially started writing this as background for another story but got so into it I just ended fleshing it out a bit. Disclaimer part tres: People love reading disclaimers don't they? It's why I've included so many. They're just for you. Disclaimer part four: I know, this is getting egregious. You're starting to find it less funny. Just wait till the twentieth disclaimer, it will start being funny again. Disclaimer part five: I'm kidding, this is the last one. I don't promise I'll read every comment or message, but I certainly welcome your feedback. Disclaimer part six: I lied, it wasn't the last one. I wrote this story without breaking it down into chapters. It just goes, that means that the chapter ends when it ends, not when there is a convenient break in the story. That means that it's very annoying for you as a reader since chapters can end mid sentence. Hah! Sucker! Disclaimer part seven: Get ready for slow updates. Who knows when this will continue. Toss it on read later and come back in fifty years. Disclaimer part eight: Cover Photo by Arthur Ogleznev on Unsplash

I Only Want One

I can think of someone who would be happy to be your choice mate." I spit at him and he stops pacing to face me. "I don't want to reject you, Natalie. I want you. As our mate and our Luna. We're twins. We're a packaged fucking deal." He snarls and I shake my head, crossing my arms over my chest and squaring my shoulders. "I don't care." I say. "I only want one."
