"What!" I yelled, the surrounding Crowns around me flinching back at the enraged voice. My eyes read over the messages again, flickering back and forth from the messages to the people around me before I finally sighed as my eyes fell. "Shit" I spit out, my head that was lowered to the ground allowed me to conceal the loss of light that my eyes could not conceal. I had worked so hard, so much pain and suffering to create a haven for the Crowns around me but it would all come crumbling down because of that…-

Our lips parted, a string of drool connected us, the chaste kiss that we started with turned into one of passion. I lifted my body so that I could get up and take a good look at Aoif. A flushed face met my own as she looked at me with lidded eyes. Though that didn't last for long as the pain in my wound flared up, my own face scrunched in pain as it was not quite healed. When I opened my eyes again I came face to face with Delta, her form towered over my own. An impassive green eye stared into me. "I…

I arrived just in time to see the death of the commander. I watched as the spear the girl held inexplicably pierced through the commander's sword with such force that it continued on till his heart. I saw the widening of his eyes as he fell, as he died. All the while I was running towards him, towards the enemies that dared kill a commander of the Empire, one held in high regard. However I was too late, the girl had picked up the boy and had already leaped through the barrier and past my range. Though…

'Neck, eyes, then neck again' I thought to myself, the lines of attack clear in my eyes as I easily dodged the rapid attacks, watching as the girl retreated with her attacks in vain. Though it was not her fault, she was just not skilled enough to deceive my predictions. It was a talent that I carried throughout my life, a brain akin to the most powerful of calculators, able to calculate all the relative probabilities and find the perfect way out. Of course it wasn't omnipotent, if someone was…

Through the forest of trees that littered the mountain, I walked. My feet carried me towards the location of my adversaries, my mind focused on nothing in particular. It was once I reached the end of the trees and into a clearing that I found them. Sat on a mountain of corpses were the two kids that had invaded previously, their eyes were closed as they leaned upon the other as if in meditation. I sneered, my hand holding my sword to the side. I placed my other hand on it and so too did my eyes close as…

With a final slash of Memoria, the head of the last elf around me was torn off. The last remnant of fear could be seen in his eyes but I was indifferent to it, not caring at all about the death of these elves nor my part in it. No, the only thing that even remotely mattered to me was watching Aoif. When I had looked over to see how Aoif was handling enemies I was instantly entranced by her battle. By the dance of death she had created, one so brilliant that I could not bring myself to look away. It was…

"Wha-" my eyes widened, the breath being taken out of me by the claw sticking out of both of my lungs and my neck. The giant moles that I had been killing for the past few days taking their revenge. The world darkened, my brain losing oxygen as I ran out of breath. With my life force gone, I was not able to live any longer. I couldn't even self destruct as a final 'fuck you'. As my consciousness left me I couldn't help but regret, regret that I hadn't taken revenge, that I hadn't lived enough, that I…

"Tsk" I clicked my tongue, the mole that stood under me prostrating as he dug out a small hole out of anxiety. "An undead, hunting my moles" I muttered out loud, remembering the moles that had worked so hard to create this underground kingdom, of the innovations and challenges that came from living underground. I swiped the notification away, annoyed. This little notification had been popping up like every now and then over the last few days. That damned undead was hunting me like crazy like we were…

CLANG CLANG CLANG The sound of blades clashing against blades echoed throughout my ear. I looked to the side as Darwin blocked dozens of attacks, the archers too cowardly to even think of causing collateral damage. When I looked towards them I saw their gritted faces as they tracked Darwin's movement. My attention soon was drawn by the voices of fear, the cries of pain, cries of sorrow, all a melody to my dance through their ranks. With a thought my dagger was reflected, another appearing in my hand as…

The top of the warehouse opened, just as the engines turned on, my ears were deafened by the noise that reached my ears. Before the jet had actually started to move, Aoif grabbed my attention and had me strapped to a seat when I sat down next to her. The roar of the engines reached its peak as the tip was pointed upwards, angled so that it would reach the distant mountains. I looked at Memoria, who was just like me strapped into a carrier that made sure that she would not be knocked around and…
