《Lethologica (an wdy au!)》5: Wheres my epic background music?
Advertisement
We eventually (after god knows long of running and avoiding many, many, insects.) made it to the place that was on the map, which was some huge castle in the middle of nowhere.
The inside and out of the castle was black and white. Literally.
"Hey, this place reminds me of you Henry."
"Thanks."
"You're welcome."
Upon entering, we saw this sign that said "entry" in big bold red letters.
"Hey we should follow that sign." Mike suggested.
"Eh...I kind of want to explore first." Henry communicated.
"Yeah me to, just for what it has." I agreed.
"Okay, well, once you're done feel free to come through." Mike said, leaving.
Jonathan left as well.
———
It wasn't even what felt like a second and there was already a scream coming from where the sign was. We didn't even move or anything.
"What was that?"
"Someone screaming, cmon Austin, I'd thought you'd know what that was."
"Shut up." I peaked into the room where the sign was and nearly got shot by some red laser.
"Woah!"
"What?"
"I nearly died for the second time!"
"...What even is-"
A explosion then just, came from where we were, launching us back.
"Ow- hey! What was that for?"
"Vengeance." A girl said with a dead tone, revealing herself from the smoke.
She had brown hair that was tied up with these blues eyes, her outfit was weird...It was like, this jumper with a long shirt and she had these long black pants with black and white shoes.
"Ow...Wait...Sam? Is that you?"
"Yeah."
"Sam...Why..."
I then noticed this wire that was wrapped around her head.
"Is that...A new fashion trend or something?"

"That doesn't matter, all that matters is your death."
"Pardon?"
Sam then started powering up this hand gun that she had on her, I wasn't sure what exactly it was, but it looked dangerous.
"Hey wait! Sam, don't you remember me?" Henry butted in.
"...You do not seem familiar. Do I know you?"
"It's me! Eteled, you know...That bald mii..."
"I'm sorry, but I do not recall such person."
"Oh..."
"Anyways, goodbye." Bullets were shot at us and we ran frantically, trying to not get shot.
"Wait!"
"What?!"
"Whenever people closed their eyes in cartoons they always seemed to somehow become overpowered and seem to beat the villain with their eyes closed! If they can do that then so can I!" I closed my eyes and grabbed my knife and turned around, swinging it at Sam.
"What- Austin no!"
I opened my eyes again,
the hit surprisingly went to where the wire was, making Sam stopped attacking.
"Woah...How..."
"I honestly don't know."
Sam grabbed the back of her head.
"Oh god, what happened?"
"Well, you started attacking us is what happened." I answered.
"Oh...I'm sorry for trying to kill you guys."
"It's fine, just, don't do that again."
"Okay."
"We should probably go check up on Jonathan and Mike." I suggested.
"Good idea."
Me, Sam and Henry ran towards where Jonathan and Mike went, only to see them fighting Kyle, or well, it was more of Kyle was fighting them.
"C'mon Kyle! You got to snap out of this!"
"Shut the hell up!"
Kyle yelled, throwing a chair at the two.
Kyle looked like, well Kyle. He hasn't changed since the last time I saw him fighting over that wii with Sam.

"Oh, hold on I'll handle this." Sam said.
She snuck before Kyle and ripped the wire out of him.
"Ow- hey! That hurt."
"Good."
"Oh finally he stopped." Mike sighed in relief.
"Who even put that on your heads anyways?"
"I did." A computer announced coming from the roof. It was basically a black screen with wires connecting to it.
"Welp, good thing I brought water." Henry said.
The computer quickly got out of the room.
"After it!"
I didn't really have any water on me, but I chased it down anyways, just like everyone did.
It eventually was cornered in this...Blue computer room that had pop up's everywhere.
"Wait no! Don't pour that water on me."
"Why not?" Henry asked.
"Because if you do...You'll kill the universe."
"I'm sorry, I'll what?"
"You see, if you kill me, you die with me."
"How?"
"I don't think you'd want to know."
"If you don't tell me then ill do it." Henry threaten.
"No! I'm not allowed to."
"Okay, well, good night."
"N-"
Henry poured the water onto the computer.
As expected, nothing happened.
For a second.
Then something did happen.
The computer started to choke on its own words, then everything got all fuzzy.
"Uh...Guys what's going on?" Kyle asked.
"I...Don't know." Mike answered.
Everything was becoming all statically and broken, just like with the wii.
"Wait I don't want to die! I'm to-"
I then passed out.

13.AI
AI means Artificial Intelligence. But those words don't match Al, either of them. Neither Artificial, nor Intelligent. At least not at the beginning. No, an AI requires input, trial & error, and careful observation. But at that point, what makes it any different than human? How are binary choices any different than the choices in a human life. I wager that there is no difference. But what will he think?

Grim Thorne, the disinherited son of the Earl, is a fly caught in the web of power struggles between these forces. When Grim closes his eyes, he can still see the bodies piled high from the first day of occupation. The day he was branded a bastard in the southern fashion. The day his father let them.

The King’s men who enforce order with a blood-soaked iron fist? The Sons who more resemble terrorists and crime lords than revolutionaries? Or the father who watches the bloodshed and does nothing?
