Arc Chronicles Euphemia
EuphemiaBefore I got woken up by the pounding at my door, I was dreaming of the past. When I attended the Imperial Academy"Arc!" Coach Monarey yelled, shaking me. I looked up at him. "What's going on with you, girl? Are you hurt? Injured?"If this was anywhere else, I wouldn't have been treated that way. I was part of the imperial house, but at my school, they are trained to treat me like everyone else.I shook my head. "No sir.""Then why the hell have you been ignoring me?"Coach Monarey's face was an inch from mine, and I did his best to ignore the spit."I-ignoring you? I would never, sir-"The coach shoved the pole into my hand and pointed. "See that? You're going to try and jump over it with this pole, do you understand?""... Yes, sir.""Good. Then GO THERE AND START RUNNING!" he yelled.I ran over to the start of the field. Coach Monary was glaring at him, arms crossed. I took a breath, cursing myself for daydreaming in Coach Monary's class. Of course, the jerk would call on
Arc Chronicles Calixte
Calixte ArcThe last meeting had turned into a circus and it hadn't stepped until I left with Tanya. It was bad enough that Mireille had gone overboard antagonizing her Tanya, but my fiery red-headed wife couldn't let it go. And to top it all off, I had to go and get caught up in the middle of everything, like I didn't have enough to worry about. It was at times like that when I wanted to go back to Karafuto and see Kaya. The Oyashimese princess was easier to get along with than my two wives when they were at each other's throats. Which was constantly, after that meeting.I should have been better prepared. I should have factored in that they might uncover me. Having the two of them in the same room was now unbearable. Which made things difficult, because the two of them were constantly with me. It was rare I would have time alone with one of them and not the other.I could only hope the two of them could set aside their differences today. I wasn't sure why we had to get Mireille onto
Arc Chronicles Euphemia
Euphemia ArcI had lost my virginity a long time ago, but thankfully no one would know. Bianca had ambushed me, and before I knew what was happening, Bianca had her shirt on the ground and she was taking her bra off. We were both sixteen and it might have just been my teenage, hormone-ridden body, but her tits were firm and her stomach was toned. She slipped out of her green pants easily enough, wearing a lacy pair of panties. She undid her ponytail, letting her long blonde hair slip free, and pulled down those paints.Then she jumped me, in a literal sense. She was on top of me before I could process what was happening. Then we were a tightening knot of flesh being drawn together. Her hands were tangled in my hair, pulling me closer. Her breath was hot, and it was in my mouth and she tasted strangely like strawberries. Her breasts smashed against my bare chest which she just uncovered. She smelled like flowers and ripe apples, a musk that I hadn't noticed despite spending the last ho

Calixte Arc"So you touched the wall of that building and you were inflicted with... A vision?" Mireille repeated.I tried not to squirm. "Visions.""Plural." Mireille nodded. Everyone was standing in a loose semi-circle in the spot where her plane had landed. Behind her, nodding silently, stood Professor Carlos from the Imperial Aquroyan University. He was the expert on ancient civilizational magic that the Office of Secret Intelligence recruited. For some reason or another, this structure was important to the emperor. "Professor?"Carlos shook his head. "I am afraid that I have not seen such a phenomenon myself, but there are records of similar experiences. The ancient Egyptians, for one, used powerful forgotten magic to protect their pyramids. We are far from Egypt, it is true, but whoever build this building might have trapped it with magic. Of course, when Lieutenant Bian touched it to remove his hand, she suffered such side effects. Curious."Mireille nodded. Before any of us co

Calixte Arc"Are you okay?" Tanya asked, turning me to face me. She looked me up and down, but my vision was still swimming. I could see her, the Roslachnian village, and the rest of my team, Mireille and the professor, but it was like they weren't there. It was like staring at the illusion that was weaving in and out. "What did you do to him?""I wanted to see the effects of this building," Mireille said. I think I heard just a hint of regret in her voice. "Calixte? Are you alright?""Is he alright? Of course, he's not alright."I shook my head. "I... I'm fine.""He sounds like he's drunk!" Tanya said through her teeth. "He certainly isn't fine."I wanted to defend myself and Mireille. I didn't want to give her and Tanya another reason to be at each other's throats, especially behind enemy lines. The Roslachnians could be back at any time.Yet the building or the tower or whatever it was wouldn't let me. It had one more vision for me.The end of my quiet, peaceful life came in the fo
Arc Chronicles Interlude Student
Interlude: The StudentThey wanted him to attend the military school in Tyché. That would be his cover. Princess Euphemia's Imperial Guard and the Tyché Colonial Guard were working closely with one military school in particular, and that would be the best place for him. The things he did for Britannian.At least this time he wasn't going to be sent to a boys' school, however. If he was going to be forced to attend, it wasn't going to be an all-boys school. Zane had had enough of sausage parties in my past life.It was an officer's school and with his records and abilities, he was sure the Tyché Colonial Guard or the Imperial Guard would come calling.A few days before his departure, he was summoned by Intelligence to one of the local bureaus. From the outside, it looked like an office building. That was part of the trap. No one would think to look here for an intelligence office or the black site that was underground. They even had real office workers who knew nothing about the buildi
Arc Chronicles Interlude Student
Interlude: The StudentHe wore the same cadet uniform that the rest of them, but emblazoned over his right breast was a bronze medal that bore the inscription: "Special Services to the Academy." On the color of their uniforms, we were bronze bars. One bar for each year we attended. As First-Year Cadets, Charlie and Julius each bore a bar. So did Alfred, but unlike them, his bars were silver."Special services to the school have been rendered. That's why his bars are silver. I don't doubt that by the time he graduates, he'll be wearing gold bars. While ours will be bronze," Charlie muttered, glaring at his back."You sound so sure of yourself.""His uncle is the headmaster. The man is the one who pushed Alfred's name through on that award. So his nephew could wear an undeserved medal on his chest. House Kessner doesn't play fair in Hawaii. Better get used to that now. They may not rule this dukedom officially, but they have their claws everywhere here. They unofficially rule.""How so?
Arc Chronicles Euphemia
Euphemia ArcAfter that bombshell, I was glad when my mother left. Though I guess it shouldn't be too much of a bombshell, I knew since I was a little girl that my mother wanted to marry me off, to find me a match she would approve of, but I did not expect it to come so soon. I should have. My mother threw a fit when the emperor assigned me this position. I had been taken out of her control, removed from her influence, and sent to live halfway across the world.Yet she couldn't let that go. Despite what I thought before and what she said, I was sure she spoke to Victoria about the same thing, but unlike me, who was too much of a coward to tell her no, Victoria would have denied it out of hand. She had her eyes set on the throne, she knew what she wanted. Plus, she was already married, and none of her husbands were of my mother's choosing.I should have refused out of hand. I should have put my foot down and told her no, that I wouldn't marry Damon Frey or anyone else that she wanted m

Arc Chronicles Volume 1: Finale
Calixte Arc: FinaleThe plan was simple: divide and conquer. Once we finished dealing with the Roslachnian soldiers, it was a simple matter of planning the attack. Because of the vision, she showed me, I knew where to find that room and we were going in guns blazing.Bian and Alphonse were in first, charging power to their shield gems. The hail of gunfire was deflected from the shields and all the focus was on them.Rolo and Sasha followed, making another loud entrance, to draw the rest of their attention.I was sneaking in last. As the room was filled with the sounds of bullets and magic, I sprinted in under the power of a cloaking spell. It should have been called a camouflage spell because that's what it did. In the chaos of the assault, no one was going to notice me sneaking in.The plan played out perfectly. As I slinked in pressing myself to the wall, I looked around for her. For my enemy. Emer Gallagher, the woman who's haunted my nightmares since she almost killed me in Morocc

The passanger
We were supposed to board the plane at three, but we didn't get on the damn plane until five. Five o'clock, TWO HOURS after we were supposed to board. We should have been in the air by that point, but Charles de Gaulle airport was never the most efficiently run place.As we were at last allowed to board, I took one last look at the City of Lights. In terms of architecture, Paris was my favorite city in the world. I didn't get to visit often and I realized I was going to miss it. The three days of relaxation had gone by in a flash and I wished I could stay just a little bit longer. It was a very beautiful city and these days I never had many chances to relax.My life was my job. At least my sacrifice was about to pay off...***"Of course, sir. Please, enjoy the complimentary-"I waited for her to continue, but she didn't. My eyes were on the Paris skyline, but her silence drew me over. She was standing by my chair, holding the wine bottle. She was frozen. Not moving."Enjoy the compli

Calixte Arc
Calixte ArcAs the world swam around me, I was jolted back into a familiar scene. One that had happened less than an hour ago. This was the freshest memory I had ever gone back to.The dark figure formed a black ink sword out of its arm. It was large and bulky, and it pointed it at us. Before I could react, the creature leaped forward. Despite how bulky his sword was, it moved like a fucking ghost. Before I could defend myself, it was right in front of me. Its sword-arm gleamed in the light and he struck me in the chest full on.The question was, how did I get into this memory? The woman in that room must have been the one assailing me, but how did she do it? It had felt like she forced a spike of ice into my head and then I was here.That mental assault was more powerful than anything I have ever felt from her. I didn't know she had that amount of force. If she had... If she had... Why didn't use it before?I found out the creature was made of mana because my shield gem flickered to

Master Shadow - Calixte Arc
Master ShadowShe glared at the man in white, hunched over his crystal ball. She hated that she had to rely on him, but without his guidance, they'd be blind. Still, it didn't sit right with her."Where are they?" she demanded of him. Master Shadow had half a mind to run over and peer into the ball herself, but she didn't have the spells to work it. So she was left standing there, waiting."They just left the room," he said quickly. He didn't want to draw her anger, which proved he had a brain in his head."Where are the prince and the other one going?""They're heading towards the other intruders."Master Shadow rubbed her chin. They wanted to link up, did they? Her instinct wasn't to allow that, but it might be better. If she could cripple the prince in dreams and memories...But she had already tried that. He was resisting and the protection he put around his mind was strong. She could pierce him one more time, but after that, she wouldn't have enough power left. One last time and

The Inspector
The InspectorAs he was brought into the room, Inspector Calares watched him closely. The young man sat down with that calm demeanor of someone sure they weren't going to be executed. It wasn't an act and that surprised him more than anything else. If he was in that young man's position, he wouldn't have been able to remain so calm.If this interview went poorly, if the higher-ups decided he was guilty, Sanctus wouldn't just kill him. He'd be subjected to tortore as a tratior to the People's Union, a fate arguably as bad as hell. Of course, they would never send his soul to hell. The Party went to great lengths to ensure their people had a frame of reference to what happened to traitors.This man would be made an example of and Inspector Calares sure as he didn't want to be the one to send him there, but he had a job to do. If he failed, they'd turn their sight on him.The young man didn't say anything. He just grinned. Inspector Calares didn't meet his eyes at first. He picked up his

Calixte Arc
Calixte ArcThe enchanted bullet struck through the shadow, but I didn't have much time to admire my handy work. I thought I clamped down on my mind with iron, but the force drawing me back into my memories came back with a vengeance. The world swam again and drifted into the misty reality of my mind and my memories...Only it wasn't my memories. I could tell by the context of the misty world that there were memories. I was all too familiar with this state of mind now, but as the mist swirled around me and became solid form, I was in a room I recognized.Only because I was just there when I followed the source of these attacks back. This was the room of the woman who was orchestrating the memory attacks on me.She channeled her mana into the crest, watching as the Aquitaine team slowly surrounded the trap.As more plans landed and they were forced to retreat, the watcher brought her mirror up. She channeled her mana into it, creating a two-way reflection with her team."Commander.""W

Calixte ArcI couldn't do anything but watch as the shadow melted out of Alphonse's own shadow. At that moment, it truly looked like the grime reaper ready to begin its bloody work.The world turned to slow motion as the shadow swung its scythe. I aimed, looking down the sights at the monster about to reap my teammate.I channeled my mana into the bullet. I had to shoot now, or that thing would kill him- the world started to spin. No! Not now. I had to keep my eye on the prize and save Alphonse.I pulled the trigger before the memory could suck me in."You're probably right.""Calixte... Calixte and Tanya. Why are you so familiar?""Rolo, pin him down for me, will you? My arm's getting tired.""Roger."I took a deep breath and kept my arm in the same position. I closed my eyes and in an explosion of light, I was back in the real world.The monster cut through Alphonse's shoulder, but the wound didn't look deep. Or life-threatening. Alphonse fell to the ground, but that was just to rol

Shadow Master - Calixte
Shadow MasterShe watched as the prince blinked out of existence, not that he was truly there to start with. He had followed her mind back here, something she hadn't planned for. The boy was talented, but he was still new to the effects in the grand scheme of things. He shouldn't have been able to follow her."That boy." If she wasn't so furious, Shadow Master might have been impressed. As it stood, she was going to make him pay. He should have kept his guard up the whole time because she has a small point in his mind.With her shadow attaching him, the prince didn't have the time to stroll down memory lane. She'd throw him back into one of the memories he'd already experienced. Sure, he'd resist, but with that monster coming at him...She set the shadow to kill. She no longer cared what Emer Gallagher wanted. If the girl became a problem, Shadow Master would use the shadow to end her life as well. The Central Party couldn't fault her. Emer Gallagher was a hired assassin, nothing more
