《SHARP ▷ PIETRO MAXIMOFF》12

"You didn't see that coming?" Pietro mocked as I lay on the ground. Pietro's moves being better than mine annoyed me but I smiled through the stinging pain in my back. "Actually, I did." I replied earning a frown from Pietro, later followed by a kick in his stomach.
"Nebudete hrať pekne." . He mumbled as he stood up from the ground he fell on. We dropped the sword fights five minutes ago to do hand on hand combats and I must say, Pietro wasn't as bad as I expected.
"Hrám však chcem hrať."
Pietro hasn't used any of his speed in the time we have been training. And I am honestly thankful for that. It's only fair.
I lifted my foot up to try and kick him in the area but he stepped back and grabbed my foot with his two hands and scoffed playfully. "We don't kick there, moja láska."
"I thought I only had two pet names."
"The more you mess with me, the more you get."
His left hand grabbed me by my upper leg while his right hand still held me by my foot and the twitched my whole leg which made my body moved in sync and I fell to the ground. My back slowly arched from the pain and I stared up at the full moon until he let go of my leg and offered me his hand. I took it but instead of standing up, I pulled him onto the ground and rolled on-top of him, straddling his waist as my hands were around his neck. Not too hard, careful not to actually choke him to death.
He looked down at the position we were in and looked back up to my eyes. "Princezná..." he muttered and I took the clue to stand up from the really uncomfortable position we were in. I cleared my throat as soon as I stood up and offered my hand that Pietro gladly took. As soon as he stood in front of me I awkwardly smiled at him as he returned that same awkward smile. I straightened my —now— dirty clothes and walked towards the stairs of the house with my swords in my hands and with Pietro by my side. His smile never seemed to leave his lips.

"Who's that?" I asked looking at the man with the eyepatch standing in the middle of the kitchen suspiciously. "That Elena, is director Nick Fury."
I uncomfortably smiled as I took place next to Pietro by the kitchen table and followed the conversation the team had before I came in.
"Ultron's gonna evolve." Bruce said.
"How?" Fury asked, playing with the orange liquid in his glass.
"Has anyone been in contact with Helen Cho?"

"I'll take Natasha, Clint, Wanda. You take Elena and Speedy." Steve said as he put his shield on his back and turned around to face Tony approaching him. "All right. Strictly recon. I'll hit the NEXUS."
"The what?" I asked confusingly and Tony smiled knowing I'd like it as much as he does, "Hackers heaven." He clarified and I smiled widely.
"I can't leave Wanda." Pietro interrupted. That kid couldn't be further than a mile away from his sister or he'd cry already, let alone be in a total different continent. "Alright. I take the speedster too then. Take Elena." Tony nod and I smiled weakly at Pietro before whispering to Tony. "If you want to hack, you could actually use a speedster who types double as fast as you." Tony, Steve and I turned around to Pietro who was talking to his sister and Wanda nod. Did she hear me? "Pietro go with Elena. It's okay." She reassured her brother and he weakly smiled at his sister. He really didn't want to leave her alone but he didn't have a choice.
I followed Tony out of the building with Pietro by my side and Fury and Bruce behind us, "I'll drop Banner off at the tower." Fury said, disappearing with Bruce in a car while Steve, Natasha, Clint and Wanda disappeared in the Quinjet on their way to South Korea to bring a visit to Ultron himself.

Tony gave us the directions of where to go and took off with his suit, leaving me and Pietro dumbfounded. "I can follow him?" Pietro said and I nod. He picked me up bridal style as he followed Tony to wherever NEXUS was.
•••
NEXUS. You could indeed say it was hackers heaven. Tony stood by the computer typing in codes as fast as he could but I interrupted him. "Let the speedster." I whispered at Tony who took a step aside to make space for Pietro. Tony began rambling codes that Pietro typed quickly and faster than Tony could ever do into the computer. Three other people were in the same room as us. One of them stood by, watching us all carefully while the other two took pictures with the famous billionaire.
I listened carefully to my comm to hear Natasha grunting, Steve fighting and Clint ticking on the keyboard of the Quinjet. "I think they need us." I whispered to Stark who simply shook his head.
"They'll have to do it without us for now." He said as he kept saying the codes for Pietro to type in on the monitor. I simply nod my head as I looked around the building. Hackers heaven indeed.

Unliving
[Participant in the Royal Road Writathon, November 2021] For the longest time, Aideen Fiachna had only one prescient wish; to be the daughter her parents could take pride in. The idea was a tall order, especially as her father stood at the head of the Templar order, and her grandfather as the Pope. However, she endeavored to try nonetheless. Yet fate had a different path in store for her. For all her efforts, all her best laid plans, were but the broken off crumbs of 'one day'. That day, she was brutally slain by a vile, accursed undead being. Though, not even restful eternity awaited her in death. She awakened inside a coffin. Her coffin. During her own funeral wake. Discovering, to her horror, that she had risen. Not somehow resurrected, no, but back in the form of that most hated of beings--the curse of undeath. What will fate deal her next? Chapters will range from 1-2.5k words, scheduled for release every day from Monday to Friday. --------------------------------------- Expect: -Character progression in a journey of self discovery that spanned the ages -World building -Tragedy and Comedy in roughly equal measures -Occasional action Do not expect: -Much in terms of romance -Politics, barring passing views and mentions -A lighthearted tale. This story will be a good bit grimmer than my previous one Any comments, reviews, and criticism will be much appreciated. And thank you for reading. --------------------------------------- Disclaimer: This story is my original work and only posted on the Royal Road website. If you should find this story elsewhere or under another name, please let me know.

Whisper of madness
Thanks to an oath, Mana had been forced to become a living cage of the god Miazanoapte. But his sudden awakening after fifty years has ruined the plans of the gods who are now forced to think of a new alternative. Because Mana was pure voratomores, his body was ideal for the god Miazanoapte to steal. That’s why many of the gods decide to kill him immediately, certain that Miazanoapte will never find a living voratomores to steal his body. The first to doubt the decision is the god who found him and delayed his death for a month until the new sorcerers’ competition where Mana had to show what he was capable of. But because a problem will never come on its own, his lack of memories and weaknesses from birth would prevent him from having an easy path. Placed with other human children, some of them natural-born talents, Mana must learn to overcome his disadvantages to earn the right to live.

Sensus Wrought
Three millennia past, Gods descended and gave the world sensus. With their gifts came their primordial clash of notions, and so began the wars. Once, there was a place war dared not touch. Once, Evergreen was a haven for all the miscellaneous souls who did not care for the glory of their divine rulers. Once, for when Merkusian, Emporer of Evergreen, was slain, his empire fell into the hands of his widow and children, and thus morphed into the very thing he sought to protect his denizens from, twisting into a warmongering empire the likes of which had never been seen. Aki is stuck. Stuck in and as a Mud. He knows that'll change. Death or power will bring him rescue. Until then, he'll have to survive the road his ambition has chosen for him. It is a perilous path fraught with danger. Some might say it's an impossible path. He’d disagree. Knite is stuck. Stuck in a mask of his own creation. He knows that'll change. Time and opportunity will come and then he'll be free. Free to seek the revenge he so craves. He's never wanted anything more. His family introduced him to pain. He didn't much like their meeting—at first. His kin would rue that day, for he's made pain a friend.
