《More Than What He Seems - A Fortnite Story No.1》Chapter 11 - Midas' Office
Advertisement
Later that morning...
"Attention henchmen and agents! Your old boss, Midas, has returned. He's come to make an announcement." Ocean reveals to the Fortilla through a microphone connected to a bunch of speakers scattered around.
At once, all henchmen halt their patrols and conversations and draw their attention to the speakers.
"Greetings henchmen and agents, old and new, on this great island. This is Midas, your boss and leader of Ghost."
A few henchmen mutter in surprise seeing their boss is still alive after 2 months of silence.
"In my absence, this island has descended into madness. Chaos Agent's shadow has fallen across the island as he and his henchmen have overtaken the Agency that was once ours." He continues.
Sophie and Skye listen closely to Midas' speech.
"He's a really confident guy, Midas." Sophie sighs, turning to her friend.
"He really is. Every week back at the Agency, every Monday morning, he'd always have a meeting planned." Skye tells her, adding to Midas' confidence.
"You might think that he's cornered us. That we have nowhere to run. But this is simply not the case. You've been hoping for a miracle, but you need to understand, that miracle can only come if we unite and work together." He goes on. "That is why I'm calling on all of you to rise to the challenge! Spread the word to everyone. Friends, family, colleagues on the island. With enough support, we can turn this war around and take back what was once ours!!"
Cheers and applause erupt from the henchmen and agents down below as Midas' message spreads about, with some already leaving with Ghost flags and posters to inform the people of the island that this war wasn't over yet. Not if Midas had anything to say about it.

"I think that went well sir." Ocean smiles, turning the microphone off.
"I agree, don't you think so too, Agent Skye and Sophie?" Midas admits, turning to them.
"Yes sir!" Skye grins, while Sophie gives him a smile and thumbs up.
"Well, with that out of the way. Sophie, Skye. I have a mission for you."
Sophie smiles, excited, as Midas motions them to follow him.
"Agent Ocean you're in charge until I'm done with these 2, understand? I'll only be gone 5-10 minutes."
"You can count on me M!"
*****************************************
Wow!! I'm already going on another mission! And with Skye! I wonder where we're going to though?
Midas leads us to a newly refurbished room in the main part of the Fortilla. Skye recognizes a majority of it from the old Agency.
"Woah bossman! It's just like your old office!!" She exclaims.
The room has many golden artifacts from his old room including a statue of him holding the earth, his golden file cabinet filled with documents and intel. Atop the cabinet sits tons of golden trophies and medals, a golden fish trophy sticking out as the bigger one. In the left side of the room, I notice a few golden instruments such as:
A piano
A ukulele
A Banjo
And a violin.
"Jesus Christ where can he find the time to play so many instruments?!" I question.
Last of all, encased in a glass box on the wall is a golden drum gun, most definitely belonging to Midas.
"I see you are impressed by the office, are you not?" Midas remarks, seeing my face in awe.
"Oh! It's certainly very impressive Midas." He hums to himself, sitting down in his chair.
"I'm glad you agree. Now, in regards to your mission: I believe I'm missing some files from my draws."

"You want us to get it back for you?" I ask, excited.
"Patience, dear. Now, agent Skye. Did you, before the Agency's explosion and Shadow's attack, happen to grab the files and intel from the Shark?" Midas questions, putting his feet up. "Because the Shark's draw seems to be empty, don't you think?"
Skye lets out an embarrassed laugh, scratching her head.
"Heh, oops. Must've slipped my mind." She smiles awkwardly.
"Mhm, I would like you, if you can, to take a boat and Sophie to the Shark and recover those lost files. If I'm right, like every other agents files, they should be in the vault."
"No prob bossman! You can count on us! C'mon Sophie!" Skye agrees enthusiastically.
"I'll be with you in a second Skye!" I call after her, getting up from my chair.
"Hm? Can I do something for you Soph-"
Midas is taken back by me suddenly embracing him with a big hug.
"Oh, are you quite alright Sophie?" He asks, concerned until I let him go and say:
"Thanks Midas! We'll be as quick as we can!" And with that, I leave him alone in his office, chasing after Skye.
As she runs off after Skye, my mind races:
This child... she's really trying her best. And she seems to know how to keep me happy. But, she still has a lot to learn before our assult against Chaos Agent that won't be for a long time yet.
And yet, I seem to care about her safety a lot more than I let on...
What have I gotten myself into?

Chronicles of Xod (returning from hiatus)
After a long recovery over a chronic motion sickness issue, I feel I'm ready to return to writing this book. It might be slow at first, but I'm hoping to pick up where I left off. I apologize again for the long hiatus. The pages following are a true account. An account of how I, Josh--a teenage nerd from modern suburbia--ended up in a strange world filled with fantastic magic, bizarre creatures, and terrifying dungeons. Despite the troped-up fantasy feel of the world, this is hardly an ordinary tale. For one, don’t expect a happy ending. With the trials I’ve been through, the horrors I’ve seen and the atrocities I’ve committed, believe me when I tell you, this is not a happy tale filled with friendly rainbow bears or teenage flying unicorns. It’s more likely you’ll finish this book mentally scarred as I will not spare the details of my unfortunate adventures. With the help of my trusted companion Gui, I gain an insight that no one else in the world has. This knowledge allows me to exploit and, for lack of a better term, metagame the system which gave me a clear advantage over its residents. “With great power...,” someone might begin to quote to me. In my defense, I think maybe even you, reader, might have acted similarly with how this reality changed my view of good and evil. This story will be updated regularly on Wednesdays around 6 PM. There will only be about 1000 words per update. The focus is to finish the story before doing any major changes or editing. Please read as if this is a work in progress, not a finished product. Feel free to let me know if you see any error, whether glaring or minor. If you help me out, I'll be sure to add you to a thank you list at the front of the book when it is published. Chronicles of Xod is a first-person fantasy novel that follows the adventures of a young man from Earth. Through unknown circumstances, he finds himself in a fantasy world where life is not all wonders and happy endings. The story takes common fantasy concepts from my favorite video games, books and movies and gives them an adult edge. It also introduces some taboo concepts often glossed over by stories written for broad audiences. The style is meant to be immersive and heavily detailed. The short novel will be written in a way that attempts to bring a sense of realism to an unrealistic genre. Where there are realistic consequences and dangers in a world populated with violent monsters, cruel demons, bloodthirsty undead, and immoral bandits. In this fantasy world, the inhabitants are essentially gender blind as far as sexuality is concerned. There is also more variation amongst male and female physiology. This isn't meant to be any kind of promotion or demotion of social behavior in reality. Just a concept I thought would be an interesting idea to have in a fantasy setting. I highly discourage anyone from reading this material if you are personally concerned with being offended or traumatized. Both violent and sexual content will be graphically detailed. All characters involved in sexual scenes are mature and of the age of consent(18+).
