Away From Eden Freeze Dance Game
The players hold their breath when the music started to play. The sound that reverberates amidst the dance floor sounds creepy that they had just forced themselves to dance, except for Lizie. It seems that she had been really induced well with the substance mix in the meal served a while ago. The music played for some minutes until it stop. The players were alert that they all freeze synchronously not minding how funny they look right now. There was silence for seconds. The players felt like they were waiting for an eternity until the music began playing again. They sighed in relief when they heard it reverberating amidst the dance floor again, thankful that nothing unusual is taking place... yet. Then the next music goes on for seconds and this time it starts to go quite suspenseful. Fear and anticipation become visible on the player's face. The music stopped. The players freeze. They tried not to move. But then seconds have passed the music isn't playing yet. After a while
Away From Eden Roc And Phoenix - A Love Story In Hell
Jair And LizieThe birdcage was made of iron. It was made that way for iron is known to be the phoenix's weakness. A phoenix could burn once they touch an iron. Jimmie Vaughn had no intention of killing Lizie. He still needs her for the game, but he needs her phoenix ability to awaken. Since Carsen had put it to slumber, he thought that the sense of an iron object would trigger her. Also, to ensure that Lizie will let out all her fire, he placed Jair with her, for once the phoenix comes out, one of the mythic creatures in Jair will be triggered too, the Roc. Besides, he needs Jair's Roc so Lizie won't be fully consumed by her own fire, thus it will prevent her from dying. Yeah, for the Roc, is the only creature that has the ability to cover the phoenix's fire without getting burned. "Lizie..." Jair grasped at Lizie's pale cheek. She was still unconscious yet she have a pulse. He's certain then that she's just too worn out with the game. Also, she has been acting out since the beg
Away From Eden Of Songs And Serpent
" How come the phoenix was awakened when I locked it?" Carsen rushed to contact Lucas through telepathy when he felt something is happening with Lizie. "Has my sealing weak?" " No Master, you didn't just know that no matter how you bound the phoenix it is susceptible to answer the call of his lover," " Lover?" " Yeah, the Roc," Carsen sighed. He is frustrated. He's certain now that Jimmie will soon harvest the phoenix ability of Lizie given Lizie's state that she doesn't even know how to use her gift. The song which Lizie hummed why it sounds familiar to me? Have I heard that before? ----Flashback - The Harlot Song and The Phoenix SongThe Vilgroi's furious face was a sight to look at. He was standing in front of his allies, of those boundless beings whom he had successfully manipulated. Now, in front of them, his power and influence are enveloping great that everyone that hears his voice, that hears his command will just obey without inquiring. Meanwhile, deep in the da
Away From Eden Taming The Flame
For the players, perhaps the peaceful place in this game world is the training center. Here in the Grand Banquet, working out, and practicing was their kind of rest. At least inside the training center, there's no threat of surprise or any conditions for them to use this place. Well, they can use this freely for months. Thanks to Jair. Sitting on the bench is Carsen. He was watching Janesi and Lizie doing some sparing. It has been days since the game armies release Lizie and Jair from the birdcage. Since then the players were wondering how they become close this time. Well, they know they're close but this time their closeness is different. Also, when Lizie came out of that bird cage, she become calmer, yet a strange mark appears on her skin. The other players don't know what is it, but not Carsen. Lizie's mark was an indication that she had lost the phoenix song. She may have the fire, but her ability isn't as powerful as compared when she has the phoenix song. I now get...why thes
Away From Eden The Bounded Boundless
Talyn and UsiuTalyn slammed Jimmie's assistant on the prison floor. There was no resistant that could be traced on the assistant's face. He was like a lifeless puppet, moving but not really living. The assistant was transparent before the watcher's eyes. Somehow, Talyn felt pity on him, and pissed off at the same time for not remembering what he truly is, and worst for forgetting his power. But she cannot do anything about his condition for she isn't like them. She is a watcher. He is a boundless being, an angel, as what earth settlers called them. Though he is belongs to the weakest race of angel unlike the Ethereals, but still he is. Talyn clicked her tounge watching at the assistant with his head bowed down. He looks meek. " Usiu," Talyn called the assistant in his name.But he never even responded as if he isn't the owner of the name she uttered. Talyn sighed. " What the hell?" he whined. The sight of this assistant is breaking her yet making her blood boil. Talyn grabbe
Away From Eden Angel Who Forgets His Halo
"Brother!" Talyn's voice interrupted from his back. Orin turned to scold her sister for such reckless action. " Do you think if Jimmie will notice he won't be looking for his assistant?" " No, he won't I have a plan," Orin brushed his hair in distress. His sister is really stubborn and it's annoying him. " Look...we don't even know if he's the real---" Then why don't you go and check, that's basically the reason why I abducted him," Talyn cuts him off. Aside from that, they could copy certain forms, his brother Orin also had a shapeshifter awareness ability. He can perceive what's real or not. The Prime Emanator had trained him well with this, that he too is immune to illusion and mental manipulation. Unlike his brother, Talyn was a rookie when it comes to this ability. While his brother has the ability to see reality, which enables him to feel and understand everything that is hidden or complicated as well as the facts and mechanics that underlie it if he is being lied to,
Away From Eden Heart In A Casket
JiggsAmong the players to be honest there's only one he likes most and could feel sincere and real, Carsen Adams. This guy really had gotten to him. If ever they come to a point here where they need to battle with each other. He admits he will waver. He couldn't hurt him. He's pure to just be tricked. If not only his brother then he wouldn't be joining these party games. He didn't expect how hellish would be life here. He wanted not to give his heart like not f***n care at all about anyone here because that's only the way he could shield himself from being hurt. Death. This is what he hates most. Ever since he saw his brother dying he swore to himself that he won't cry again for he would shut his heart from being attached to anyone or anything, not even a friendship or a romantic relationship. He's bleeding. And since there's no way he could alter the reality of a human being a mortal, then he would do something he thinks he could control - lock his heart, and bury it in a casket alo
Away From Eden Spoiled Brat Daughter Of A Psycho
Where is that here in this house? The last time I see it was when he grabbed that from Usiu? Talyn wondered. It has been days since she was here in Jimmie's house disguised as Usiu, his assistant. Good thing Jimmie's Vilgroi ability hasn't yet at its peak or else there's no chance for her to shapeshift on his presence without getting detected. In fairness his house is very human...high security, spacious, luxurious, and few humans inside. It's obvious that both Jimmie and Vilgroi's personality is melancholic, and introverted, aside from that he's a psycho. Talyn observed. Huh? What is that? Talyn asked. Her eyes were directed to the glossy wooden floor going to the room in the end. She was hearing a sound as gently as a fountain that is ebbing and making fewer surges. At first, the note sounds relaxing, and soothing to the ears, but as it goes further, it becomes sharp and emotionally evoking. The flute?!She couldn't be mistaken it was the sound of the flute!But just when Ta

His Paradise
Everything in the cosmos has become a void. Almost a third part of it has fallen into blackness and emptiness. At this moment, Prime had been transported back to planet Earth but nothing was left in there. This planet has been long in desolation but this time it is very different, even dreadful, even emptier from the previous. Perhaps this is the earth's worst state. The planet has come into the void, and what was left were just vast barren, dry lands. There's not even a single drop of water. The planet is no longer the blue planet, the life-sustaining, and Prime knows that it would be just an hour before this entire land would disappear, and this planet would turn into just -- "a darkness", like those what happened in the cosmos. Seeing the planet's most devastating state, seeing its travail, and dying state, Prime couldn't help but be overwhelmed by emotions. He's late. There's not even a single life he had caught in here when he arrived, and that's so disappointing. Remorse, yeah, h

Void
The High Council's realm is a serene scenery. It is so beautiful that it gives the beings there a sense of peace. It also has a kind of vibe that will make anyone feel in awe and somehow hesitant. But Prime Emanator has been used in this place. He no longer felt any intimidation. He moved inside. His steps were sure to where he was going -- to the Council hall. When he arrived there, he was met by a group of creatures in their human-like figure, yet their aura tells they aren't humans. "Oh, so gate did not reject you!" one of the Council commented. "We can see that you are now completely back, Emanator," one said. Prime ignored their comments. He has no time for that. "I bet you all know why I'm here," he said. The council who were sitting at the center seat raised his eyebrow for Prime's snobby attitude. "Careful, know where you are and who you are talking to," said the council. Prime scoffed, " I wonder if you still could act like high and mighty when all of us here got w

The Song Of Destruction
The stability of the planet was just a temporary relief but it was never the cure to what Earth is going through right now. Today is another menial day for the people. Some were bustling down the streets. At least now, though in a short time, city streets had become alive, again. Though there were remains of ruined buildings, at least the streets are no longer ghost towns. People are starting to go out and live their normal human lives. Friends and families gathered for a common work, for a meal, while the rest of humanity are beginning to get up again. It was particularly interesting to watch everyone having life in these busy streets, some walking busy, some walking leisurely, they're the symbol that the planet is now recovering. "This is disheartening to see," Talyn whispered. She was there in the side street, observing, and perhaps guarding. Usiu didn't reply for he felt the same way too. These humans didn't know that the peaceful lives they were enjoying now were just tempora

The Final Becoming
"So, how would I achieve that kind of state?" Carsen asked Tadhiel. He flexed his grip and his Mithril came out. Tadhiel clicked his tongue, " That's not just that," he muttered shaking his head. Carsen's brows furrowed, "What then?" he asked. "The battle you'll be in in the next days no longer needs combat, but it will be a battle of abilities, of powers. If you really want to stop the Vilgroi, you need to surpass him," Tadhiel explained. Then, his gaze trailed at Carsen from head to toe. " Aside from that the High Council will reject you, you won't win against the Vilgroi with that state of yours, so human, or a superhuman? No," Tadhiel stated. Carsen sighed, "Okay, so what are we going to do here?" "I will guide you in tapping into your full state as Prime Emanator," Tadhiel said. "Uh, but wait, erasing my humanity would that mean I'll forget all my memories as Carsen Adams?" he asked. Tadhiel chuckled, "No, you're not like the Vilgroi, that thing happens only when on

The Song Of Destruction
The gathering of all the gems in the pillar was the collapse of the entire game world. Because of that, no game realms would exist on planet Earth no matter how powerful the Vilgroi and his boundless are. Carsen and the Outsiders made sure of that. With the help of the supplies and lands they personally cultivated, and together with those gems, the Outsiders were able to at least restore the planet's vegetation a little. Such a thing has a big impact on human lives for that means, now supplies, food and all the basic necessities they need for living would no longer be denied of them. For a little time, the world was back to its normal state where the people's lives had been lived normally like before Jimmie Vaughn rose to power. However, Carsen Adams, and the Outsiders, know that this isn't the end yet, that there's still a threat out there, and perhaps there will be until the Vilgroi is alive. "It's like there's an eternity in each sound in this moment here in this farm," Uncle Br

Outcast And Forbidden
Now Carsen is on his way to the trail to the pillar to collect the last gem he needed on it, the cruxible. "This is perhaps the last time I will be helping you dude," Takii said to Carsen. "I'm already quite obvious to the other hunters." Carsen tapped Takii's shoulder, " It's fine, bro, thanks for this anyway," he said. "But if I may ask, the game hunters, what are they?" Takii's brows furrowed, " What do you mean, what are they?" "What are they? Like are they like you? A human?" Carsen asked. Takii laughed, " Of course, but unlike the players, we weren't given choices to side with. Our allegiance must be with Jimmie Vaughn alone, and what I'm doing now would certainly risk my life." Carsen sighed, " This is the last time you'll going to be doing this anyway," he muttered. The trail to the pillar is extremely dangerous compared to the others he has gone to. Takii told him that it was a different world there beneath the portal, yet he needed to accomplish it all in a design

" I'm opening the cell gate now, master, but I can't guarantee your powers will work out fine when you guys come out," Talyn informed Carsen. They were still communicating through telepathy. "It's okay, Tal, I don't have time to play this game, can you give me some information about those voices we heard in our headphones?" Carsen asked. Talyn swiped the large monitors in front of her, and as she did so, certain images popped out on the hologram screen. She was quite surprised to see who were those. "Uhm..master based on the voice recognition here, it's Adeleum and Mihr," she told Carsen. "Adeleum? Mhir?" Carsen muttered. "Mihr?" Usius interrupted when he heard what Carsen had just uttered. Carsen turned to him and asked, " Yeah, why?" Usiu's eyes gleamed at the recognition of an old friend's name. Yeah, how could he forget such a name? Mihr and he grow up together in their realm. He was a childhood friend. Mihr even learned first to sing than him. He used to look up at hi

Carsen's eyes lit up as he sensed the Adeleum and Mihr's arguing. Although it isn't clear to him who's the creatures behind manipulating them into this game, he could sense right now, that whoever is behind this, they're not on good terms. My ability is working despite the unknown. Now, what I needed to know was to learn who are the boundless behind this! Sadly, I can't communicate with Talyn. Carsen thought to himself. The cell gate sounded again. This time, the game soldiers are fetching another player. The players hold their breath, expecting that one of them will be chosen to face their death. "It's now your turn, doctor!" Todd was startled at what he heard on his headphones. His face went pale in fright. He looked around as if asking for help from his fellow players but he knew that they couldn't. Todd looked back at his co-players when the game soldiers took him. Meanwhile, Dizal banged the cell in frustration. "We must get out of here!" he muttered. He then turned to C

The cell gate opened. The players all hold their breath anxiously. This time, the first one to play was called. It was Jair. Hearing that, Lizzie broke out in tears and begged she'd replace him instead but the operators were too deaf. It's unusual this time that there aren't any explanations or rules given before they were called out, before the start of the game. The more reason that the players get nervous. They wonder about the uncertainty, and they know its possible danger so it's scaring them. The rest of them remained quiet, while others had violent reactions. Like Lizzie who was crying on the floor now, and Dizal who was hitting the cell door and cursing at the cameras above them. While Carsen on the other hand just sits calm, thinking in the corner. "Urgghh!!! Let us all out of here!" Dizal was screaming. He tried to throw some force field on the cell bars but it just bounced. The prison cell where they are held is indeed resistant to their ability as Carsen said. Aside from
