《Finding Emma》Chapter 12
Advertisement
Peter crumples to the ground, yelping. Evelyn holds a gun, staring at me.
-
-
Tris' mouth is still wide open, and she stares at Evelyn. "Th-thank you," she says. I place my hand upon Tris' back and I rub it tenderly.
-
-
Evelyn nods. "Now, what do we need to do to get the city to cooperate?" She asks me.
-
-
"This isn't about containing the city anymore," I say, shifting Emma on my hip. "This is about the people outside of that wall. They need to come into the city and be saved, and the people in the city should be able to leave if they want. We need to notify them on what is going on, now."
-
-
"I've already made a video, before I came to save you," Tris says to me. "Can I project it on the screens.. Like Jeanine did?"
-
-
"Yes," Evelyn says, opening up her computer. "Here. If you give me the flash drive, I can upload it for you..."
-
-
"Thank you," Tris responds to Evelyn, pulling a flash drive out of her pocket and handing it to her. "I need to find Christina and Caleb," she says to me. "Do you want to come with and bring Emma?"
-
-
"Sure," I reply. "Emma, we're going to find Christina and Caleb, okay?" I ask her.
-
-
She looks up at me. "Dada," she says. I give her a small smile and kiss her cheek.
-
-
Tris and I find both Caleb and Christina talking with Uriah at one of the top levels of Erudite. We're about to walk up to them, but then I hear Tris' voice on the loudspeakers.

-
People bustling around Erudite Headquarters stop and look at the video projecting in the middle of the building. I know people are listening outside, too.
-
-
Emma looks around, hearing the voice, and then she looks at Tris. She gives Tris a small smile and points to her with her tiny pointer finger. "Mama," she says.
-
-
Tris suddenly smiles so big at her. I hand Emma to Tris, and Tris pokes her on the nose. "I guess we're a family now, aren't we?" Tris asks little Emma, who giggles in response.
-
-
I put my hand on Tris' back as we watch the video together with Emma and the rest of the city. We're like a little family now, the three of us.
-
-
It is our time now to decide what we need to do to fight back. David can be defeated. We need to not only save the city, but the people in the Fringe. Once and for all.

Embrace the Ether
To burn away the old, rebuilding it anew. Countless years ago, a terrible war came for the ancient Primordials, casting down their once believed immovable dominance and securing the rise of a new empire. The Ether was fractured, broken into numerous pieces as peace was hard-fought. Thrown into this new hectic land, Deus must come to wield an unexplained power, one that threatens both his sanity and life simply to use. If he wishes to survive, he must learn not only how to harness this strength but how to grow and expand it, altering the path of those around him. What he doesn't know is that he's found himself involved in a terrifying plot hosted by those demons of old, a game of sorts to decide the fate of Midnight. Does Deus have what it takes to survive, or has he found himself trapped in a plot he has no hope of escaping? Note: This story has a slow-build and takes awhile for the pace to get going. If that isn't your thing, this may not be for you. Heavy emphasis on world-building and character creation and progression. --------------------------------------------------------------- • Release Schedule • Chapters will be released weekly, with some occasional alterations throughout. This may not be a permanent adjustment, but I'll do everything I can to remain active. --------------------------------------------------------------- • Important FAQ • Q: What is the cover art from?A: The current cover art for ETE is called 'Run Boy, Run...' which is a work from Gustavo Arteaga's collection, which can be found here - https://gusart.artstation.com/https://www.instagram.com/sirgusart/ If you're the original artist of the work and would like me to remove your content from my cover art, please send me a private message telling me so. I'm not making any direct profit off this story or the cover, as everything here is a passion project. Also; This story and all its chapters are a work-in-progress, and may be altered at a later date. Don't expect perfection, but I am trying my best. Look at everything posted on this fiction as a first draft.

The Key of the Ancients
Unknown to all races, due to its corruption and faithlessness, the destruction of the universe and all its inhabitants were already set by the Gods of the Ancients, paving the way for their idea of creating a new world. But one of the Gods objected, and created a key that could save the creation from the brink of destruction. Alcee Salva had always wanted to live peacefully, aiming to become the most reveled fowler in his generation. But, fate dictated for him to be the key in opening the magical world that was hidden by the Gods of the the Ancients to all creation. On his 12th birthday, his destiny was fulfilled, and 10 individuals of different races and of different universe were forced to stand up and journey to the world of the Gods to face their verdict, and if possible, stop it. Note: I have already finished writing 100 chapters, and I am planning to release 1 (one) chapter per day, but if many rates the novel or writes reviews, then I'd be glad to release more. So please...:D :D
