I just needed to get it over with. I wasn't scared, not there was a difference in what I felt here than fear. Fear is where something scares you. This was just not wanting to get turned into metal filings when I hit a mountain or the impenetrable invisible wall. Slow deep breaths and aim for the tree. I filled my body with power and reinforced my structure so that I wouldn't completely fuck myself, or get ran through by a tree. I wanted Eva to be able to fix me after, and that wouldn't happen if I died…

"I hope that wasn't a joke," Eva said, taking her form and floating up beside my presence. "No, well, ya, but, ya. So, speed, according to the download thinger. I can go really fast, but I drain power, not fast, but it does drain it out, and then...really? I have to be idle and meditate like this to gain it back? What kind of cockamamie bullshit is this? I have never had a limit or a constraint to the amount of power I could use other than the Gates themselves," I said, feeling a bit miffed. "Hyde, your…

I pulled myself up and off the ground, and started to run back through the forest I had been tossed over. I ran with hands in front of me like a snow melter with rocket boosters. "Dodge Left!" Eva called out over the speakers. I rolled and jumped back up and burst through the trees. That bastard had thrown a boulder half the size of me, but I was back at home now, and I turned up the speed. I cut a path through the snowstorm and high-tailed it out of there. I didn't even bother to look back, no point. I…

I carried my Wolf Princess into my room, and it was exactly how I had left it. There were still the free trophies I had got from hockey and football, and the right kind, not soccer. I turned and smiled; a space about two meters tall and three wide was filled with old newspaper cut out of the Sun Shine girl from every newspaper I could find. "So this is the skeletons on the wall? You can barely even see them, and most of them don't even look as cute as I do!" Kyra said cuddling into my chest. I turned…

"If you think it's weird we can just go in your room," Kyra said, wrapping herself around my arm. "No, It's fine, we can shag in my parent's bed," I said looking forward. "You don't want me to go in there! Hyde Kline, what skeletons do you have hiding in your closet?" Kyra asked, poking me in the side, making me jump. "They are mostly hanging on my walls, umm, I collected new paper articles as a kid…" I let myself trail off as we got into the house. Inside the Bones and one of the females was in…

"Uh, Hyde are you sure about this? This guy is a little bit, don't you think?" Kyra asked from inside. "Nope, I am not sure at all, so strap in and hold on. Eva engages extra seat belts and makes sure to strap the food down. I am pretty sure I will have worked up quite the appetite if we survive this!" I said laughing. "Hyde!" Krya yelled at me. "Babe, call down I got this, I think, but he is pretty big, eh?" I said as I got ready to...something. The walking forest looked down at me with big glowing…

It was like shining summer into the depths of winter, but the weird thing was that it stayed that way. Even after I passed no snow fell and even the grass was green. We even took the time to stop and left everyone out and see what it was like. For me, I was half in and half out of the snow so I was a bit jade, and even though everyone was out, I didn't want to change back to myself and ruin what was all done on the inside. I wasn't sure if transforming back would wreck anything, but I didn't want to…

"But, wait! You gave them the choice!" The dragon whined. "They didn't drop me into a thirty-meter hole!" "In my defense, it did say not to stand there! Come on! Don't be such a hard ass! I can cook! Yes, I am a very good cook!" "You're a dragon, I would like something other than burnt to a crisp to eat," I said, crossing my arms. Kyra was giving me a tongue lashing about being a big old meanie, but I wanted my treasure before I accepted any more orphan monsters. Plus, this was a bone dragon, what…

The tentacle stopped, and then the massive body of the monster rose out of the water. It blinked the oily tar out of its one big eye that was turned on me and stared at me for a while. It held its tentacle floating in the air about two meters away, but I could see the mouth on the thing opening and closing. The rows upon rows of jagged little teeth looked a bit menacing, but I tried to just ignore it and wait to see what it was going to say. "What do you offer us?" Asked a very female voice. "A chance…

Last time I went without a plan, but this time, I had Kyra and Eva with me. On top of that, we had a map and set locations to go to, but that still didn't mean it was going to be easy. The snow was knee-deep and even though I could keep myself warm with my engine heat, I still feel the biting chill hit my plates. This wasn't like when I had piloted the MAS Suit Diamond Edge. I was inside that suit and I was using the suit's power to boost my own, but now I was more than just wearing the suit. My power…
