《Changed》Chapter 13

"Ugh..." Haley groaned. Her head was pounding like a drum. Her ears were ringing and her vision was blurry.
"Thank god you're awake." A voice sounded from beside her. Haley squeezed her eyes closed and moved to massage her temples, but found that her wrists were bound. This caused her to snap out of her daze. Her eyes flew open and slowly adjusted to the darkness around her.
"W-What happened?" Haley inwardly cringed at her scratchy voice. Todoroki was sitting, chained by his wrists to the wall next to her.
"I don't know." Todoroki thought back trying to remember as Haley slowly sat up. "I remember hearing something like a gunshot and you fell. I think the same happened to me."
"Wait," Haley felt fine. "Gunshot?" It didn't feel like she just got shot. Todoroki recognized her confusion.
"I think it some sort of dart."
"Yeah, I got that." Haley snapped. Now realizing that she was talking to Izuku's ex. Todoroki was taken aback by her sudden outburst but decided that it was because of the stressful situation they were in. Is this how Bakugou felt when he got kidnapped? Todoroki thought.
"Who kidnapped us, then?"
"I don't know," Todoroki admitted. "But I think it's the League of Villains."
"Oh, that crew of villains that keeps getting into UA somehow?"
"Yeah..." Now that Todoroki thought about it, they did seem to get into UA a lot.
"Talk about poor security," Haley grumbled.
"I'm sorry, I can't do anything about it." She just rolled her eyes at this.
"What do we do now then?"
"If this is where the old LOV base is," Todoroki trailed off. "Then there should be a door in front of us to our left."

"Wait, how do you know this?" Haley questioned.
"Well, Bakugou got kidnapped by the LOV not too long ago and we came here to save him."
"Oh." Haley snarled at the mention of Bakugou's name. Todoroki pieced it together now. She's bitter about me cheating on Izuku...
"Hey," Todoroki looked down at his chained hands.
"What?"
"Well," He shifted uncomfortably. "I'm sorry." Now it was Haley's turn to be confused.
"For what?"
Todoroki sighed, "I know you're mad at me for cheating on Izuku and Bakugou for me cheating on Izuku with him."
"Damn right I am."
"I just wanted to say I'm sorry. I-" Todoroki was interrupted by Haley.
"I'm not the person you're supposed to be saying sorry to am I?" Todoroki shook his head before realizing that she could really see him.
"No... But, I'm too scared." He confessed. Wait, why am I pouring out my feelings to this random person? Todoroki mentally screamed at himself. I guess I just need to talk to someone about this...
"Why?" Haley somehow felt as if Todoroki was actually sorry about this, and Izuku had said that he was going to forgive him. I guess he didn't tell him yet. But why would Mr. I'm-so-cool-guy be scared about?
"I-I... I'm worried that he won't forgive me. And I know, I know, he probably shouldn't and never will. But, I'm still worried. I love Bakugou now, and I can't deny it. He also found someone and I'm happy for him. But, I scared that it's going to become too awkward between us and he's going to hate me. I still want to be friends..." Haley sighed.
"Well, if it's any help. Izuku came to us this morning, at least I think it's still the same day, and he said that he was going to forgive you guys." Todoroki's head shot up at this.

"R-Really?"
"Yeah... Hey," Haley smiled, even if he couldn't see it. "You're not too bad." Todoroki chuckled.
"Thanks. I needed that."
"No problem."
"How cute..." Someone cooed. The two in question had their defenses up immediately.
"Who are you?" Todoroki demanded.
"Hmmm....who am I?" That voice... I feel like I know it. Haley thought. "I don't know. But, I sound familiar, right, Haley?" Haley narrowed her eyes at the mention of her name and how the voice, who sounded like a man, was correct.
"You know who I am." She stated. "Who are you?"
"Aw... You seriously don't remember me? Well, the same goes for your other friends. Their reactions were priceless when they actually found out." Haley was getting impatient.
"Who are you?"
There was no answer. Suddenly, a bright light fizzed on and both teenagers had to squint their eyes at first. When they finally adjusted to the light, a single black feather drifted down and landed in the center of the spotlight. Haley froze.
"No... it can't be... Carlos..?"

Synapsis (Liber Telluris Book 2)
Ancient biotechnologies, psychotic satellites, and incomprehensible enemies… The weaponized strain of the genophage—the disease that ravaged the world, turned men into monsters, and ended the Last Era—is in remission, but the effects of its attack on the genes of the Nethress family linger… Tvorh, an adopted Nethress biomage with everything to prove, is tasked by his liege Dorsin to invent a permanent inoculation against infection. At Tvorh’s disposal is an unprecedented resource: a princess of the Last Era, recently released from cryostasis. In this diminished age, her knowledge and power are unmatched. So are her psychoses and power-hunger. When the quest for answers drives Dorsin, Tvorh, and their companions into the deepest wilds of Tellus and the blackest voids beyond it, they will learn the single terrible secret binding synapse to synapse, biomage to genophage, man to Chimera… Past to present. Land to sky. And prey to predator. Because while fractious bloodlines war across Tellus’s surface, the true threat glides unrecognized through the void of space… Heading straight toward Tellus. *** Synapsis is the second book of a biopunk science-fantasy epic inspired by the altered philosophies and weird technologies of Dune, the ever-present familial machinations present in Exalted's Scarlet Empire, and the endless conflict of Warhammer 40K. The first book, Genophage, may be found on Royal Road.
8 203Red Wheat
Skylar Kylee Wintersong was born an Indigo Child. Celebrated by her parents, who ensured that she suffered no restrictions that might hinder her powers, ability or genius, she has grown up knowing that she was a member of the elite, born to rule and guide. However, the cruel whims of beings who are Gods have intervened, and not only dropped Skylar in a savage reality of magic, muscle, steel, and blood, but granted her all the powers she thought she was entitled to. Her knowledge that she's been born to rule and guide, that she was a chosen one, has been made real, with all the terrible burden that entails. How will a 21st Century Earth girl survive on the Six Worlds of Shtar? A place known as "The War Worlds." The entire thing is somewhat tongue in cheek, fun high fantasy with a touch of satire. Rather than adding in likable and relatable characters, the three Earthlings are supposed to be caricatures and somewhat satirical, as I was making fun of the type of fantasy that was being spit out all over the place at the time I wrote this about a decade ago. It is currently unfinished and on hiatus.
