《The Night Shift (Mike Schmidt x Reader)》7. Gold Fever
Advertisement
Nopenopenope. I was done. I've been scared out of my skin enough times this week, thank you very much. I thought that I had already seen all that this hellhole had to offer, but I apparently hadn't.
Mike was pretty confident tonight. He didn't show any emotion whatsoever, which was unlike him. There were always a few strains of curses before, even if nothing bad really happened. That, or repeated sighs of relief and fist pumps when a crisis was averted. Must've missed his coffee this morning.
All of a sudden, a shiny figure had appeared in the middle of the office. Mike yelled and shoved the tablet up in my face. He promptly pulled away and breathed a sigh of relief.
"What. The. Fuck. Was. THAT?" I asked.
"Shit, I forget to tell you fucking everything! Anyway, that's a little friend of mine I call Winnie the Pooh." I glared at him, and he cleared his throat. He must be used to having his jokes fall flat. "That's Golden Freddy. He appears and tries to fuck things up occasionally. Just hide yourself with the tablet and he should go away."
Jesus. This place was so fucked up. Not only are these bloodthirsty animatronics trying to kill me, but there's imaginary yellow bears out to get me as well? I wonder what else Mike forgot to mention. Next thing you know, there's going to be some kind of murder involving stuffed animals. Considering the things I've seen so far, I wouldn't doubt it for a second.
On our way out, I could've sworn I saw someone watching us walk out from underneath a streetlamp. Was he...was he wearing purple? It wasn't like he was just wearing a purple shirt or something; it looked like he was entirely clothed in purple. I couldn't really tell. I didn't bother to point it out to Mike, but I promised myself I would if he showed up again. I had a bad feeling about this guy. I couldn't help but wonder what shit was going to go down tomorrow, since it was the end of the work week. I waved to Mike and got in my car. Mike had the omnipresent cup of coffee in his hand. Guy must have an addiction. As I drove off, I noticed him throw the cup of coffee in the direction of the place I thought I saw the guy standing earlier. There was nothing there, though, so I just assumed that it was just Mike being Mike and throwing the coffee because it was too hot or some animal was making annoying noises. Oh well, I'll mention the situation tomorrow if it comes up.

Re-Ordaining of the Chosen
Alea cheerfully hummed as she descended the steps, brimming in upbeat while her colleague, Quarren Leos, shot her a look of skepticism. “So… were you right about him?” he asked doubtfully. She came to a stop for a moment, her humming falling silent before she shook her head, waving her medium length light-blonde hair from side to side. “I was wrong about him.” Quarren raised an eyebrow in confusion at the convoluted response.“But you seem quite happy?” he asked again. “Because I am. But I was wrong about him. He was… so much more than I ever expected.” Alea looked at the sky overhead with a smile. “That boy… no, that man, is amazing. I firmly believe he will come to stand on top of any adversary he faces. He is destined. He is Chosen.” Quarren snorted as he stepped past, shaking his head. “Okay. Each to their own beliefs but you’re sounding like a nutjob. That skinny twig? Everyone calls him a cripple, you know,” he shook his head.“Rumours are always false, Leos,” Alea answered with a disapproving shake of her head. “You wouldn’t know. He is so, so much more.” “I saw him with my own two eyes. I didn’t see anything redeeming,” Quarren rebutted. “Well…” Alea chuckled. “You haven’t seen what I’ve seen.” In the year 917 of the Imperial Calendar, the Great War had just ended between dozens of nations. Farrien welcomed home millions of troops and warriors with the Archdukes of Aerianne and Kanaria leading them at the forefront. Since the founding of Farrien, the Aerianne and Kanarian Archduchies have been pillars upholding the Kingdom from enemies. It was common belief that they possessed special blood blessed by the Goddess Stecia, who gifted the lineage to the first King of Farrien when he first founded the country. All were ecstatic when the current generation of the two Archduchy's, after the war, agreed to let their children wed. The excitement was short-lived however when the Aerianne Princess proved to be a dragoness among men but the Kanarian Prince was worse than even mediocre. The Prince disappeared and the wedding was shortly forgotten as society lived on. Until one day the Young Heir of Kanaria returned to Farrien a changed man, bringing demise with him. Follow the story of the Chosen ordained by the Goddess of Time as he returns to the past to right his wrongs and set things back straight again! Many thanks to xSTAYc for the cover design and various co-creative elements in the conscription phase! :p
