Richard Rawlings (The Invicible Hero) Chapter 18:- Father-in-law
The elder was completely oblivious to Richard's presence, the scientists didn't notice him either.Richard thought of calling his father-in-law's attention, but he was not ready to face six scientists who might shape-shift into bear-like creatures.He hid and watched them closely as they talked.Richard observed from his hidden vantage point, trying to make sense of the conversation."If my father-in-law is an elder in Skuller's group then that makes Scarlett directly involved too." He thought to himself.His eyes suddenly lit up."She sent the assassin after me.""Bloody hell, my wife tried to kill me."His anger boiled intensely.His father-in-law gestured emphatically, his voice rising as he spoke.The scientists nodded in unison, their eyes gleaming with intensity."....the serum is ready," one of the scientists said, holding up a vial of glowing liquid."We can proceed with the transformation.""Ooh, the serum is not for me," Richard's father-in-law responded."It's for my daught
Richard Rawlings (The Invicible Hero) Chapter 19:- We Need Fuel
As they descended into the submarine's depths, Richard's mind was occupied with thoughts of Scarlett and his father-in-law.He couldn't believe he had been foolish all along."How long have they been involved in Skuller's group?" he pondered."I can't believe I fell in love with someone like Scarlett.""What are they up to? Well, I'm glad I destroyed the serum, that will get on their nerves.""What would I do when I eventually confront my father-in-law again or Scarlett?"He struggled with the thought of killing his wife and his father-in-law."They tried to kill me, though; why should I spare them?"He sighed in exhaustion and stared at the screen displaying a school of fish swimming in front of the submarine.His mind drifted to Kate and agent Caroline."I wonder how they're doing, they probably think I'm dead."He was brought back to reality when Mia tickled his ear and brought him back to reality.She offered him a glass of wine and sat down beside him.This time, she had changed
Richard Rawlings (The Invicible Hero) Chapter 20:- Aliens
Richard's heart sank as he watched the aliens move towards them. He knew they had to act fast."Mia, we need to get out of here, now!" he whispered urgently.Mia nodded, her eyes still on the aliens."Follow me," she whispered back.She pulled Richard through the streets, dodging alleys and side streets.They could hear the aliens' heavy footsteps behind them, their thick voices shouting orders.As they turned a corner, Richard saw a group of humans huddled together, frightened."Mia, look!" he whispered.Mia's eyes widened. "We have to save them," she whispered back."But how?""I'll draw them to myself, and then you get them to the boat." "No Mia, I'll draw the aliens away, you take them to the boat and contact Evelyn to come pick them."Mia smiled. "I admire your bravery, but I'm the soldier here.""Which is why you have to take them to the boat, what if we get ambushed on our way by another patrol? You have the skill sets to deal with that.""Fair enough, Rick, I'll take them,
Richard Rawlings (The Invicible Hero) Chapter 21:- Intimacy
As he burst into the bathroom, he saw Mia standing in front of the shower naked, her skin glistening with water droplets.Richard's eyes widened in surprise, and he felt a sudden jolt of arousal.He quickly averted his gaze, his face burning with a flush.He had burst into the bathroom expecting to find Mia in distress, but he hadn't expected to find her naked."Mia, I..." he started, his voice trailing off as he took in the sight of her.Mia turned to him, her eyes locking onto his, "Rick," she said, her voice barely above a whisper.Richard's gaze scanned over her skin, taking in the droplets of water glistening on her shoulders, the curve of her neck, and the swell of her breasts.He felt his heart race, his pulse pounding in his veins.Without a word, he reached out and wrapped his arms around her, pulling her close.Mia melted into his embrace, her body pressing against his.As they held each other, the tension between them was palpable.Richard's hands traced the curves of Mia's
Richard Rawlings (The Invicible Hero) Chapter 22:- The truth
He reached her side and dropped to his knees, cradling her head in his lap."Mia, please," he whispered, his eyes scanning her body for any sign of injury.The bullets had hit her in the arm and chest.Richard stopped time and carried her away from the aliens, to an enclosed area.With a swift motion, he ripped open her jacket and shirt, revealing a mess of blood and torn flesh.Richard's stomach churned as he saw the extent of the damage.His face suddenly lit up, "She's a super soldier, she can't die," He blinked his eyes to resume time.As time resumed, Mia's body jerked in Richard's arms, and she cried out in pain.Richard's heart raced as he saw blood oozing out of her.”Mia, no, no, no," his voice trembling with fear."You're supposed to be healing?"Richard's eyes widened in horror as he realized the truth."The weapon they used. It's an alien tech, isn't it? That's why you're not healing."Mia's face contorted in pain, and she nodded weakly, "Yes, Rick."Richard's heart sank,
Richard Rawlings (The Invicible Hero) Chapter 23:- The Plan
Mia's eyes widened in shock, her face pale. "Scarlett, my sister? Working with Skullers? That can't be true!"Richard's face twisted in anguish, "Scarlett is Mia's sister!""Yes, Richard. Scarlett is Mia's sister. And you're her husband. You've been playing us all along, haven't you?"Mia's voice trembled, "Scarlett, my sister, how could you Richard? How could you betray me like this?"Richard's eyes pleaded for understanding."Mia, please listen to me! I didn't know Scarlett was your sister, I swear! I'm as stunned as you right now."Mia nodded her head, "You expect me to believe that? That you didn't know Scarlett was my sister? After all the lies you've told us?" Richard's eyes filled with despair, "Mia, I didn't know! Scarlett never told me about you, about your relationship. I didn't even know she was working with Skullers until I saw her father at that facility."Mia's eyes snapped back to Richard, her gaze intense and searching, "You mean you saw my father at that facility?"E
Richard Rawlings (The Invicible Hero) Chapter 24:- Loosed Ends
They got to the submarine, with Richard's hands tied."So here's the plan: you're going to fix bombs around the submarine, and when the time is ripe, we will blow it up," Richard rehearsed.Scarlett's men were grinning, their eyes gleaming with excitement, as they gestured to each other and nodded in anticipation. One of them, a burly man with a cruel smile, stepped forward, his hand outstretched to take Richard from Evelyn."Ah, the legendary Richard," he sneered, his voice dripping with malice. "We've been waiting for you. Scarlett's going to be thrilled to see you."Evelyn's expression was cold, her eyes flashing with a warning. "Don't think about it, Richard," she whispered, her voice barely audible over the din of the engines. "Just go with them, nice and easy."Richard's eyes locked onto hers, a flicker of understanding passing between them. He knew what was at stake, and he was ready to play his part.With a nod, Evelyn handed Richard over to Scarlett's men, who dragged him awa
Richard Rawlings (The Invicible Hero) Chapter 25:- Richard Vs Scarlett
Scarlett's heart pounded in her chest as she stepped into the chamber.She had known Richard so intimately, once upon a time. But that was a lifetime ago when she naively fell in love with Richard.She had just escaped from the SSP with her father, leaving her sister behind. Baldur offered her father the power of immortality if he joined him.Scarlett’s father, mesmerized by the promise of eternal life, accepted Baldur’s offer. In return, he sacrificed Intel on SSP to the Skullers, offering the lives of Soldiers as a price for his immortality. Scarlett on the other hand, sacrificed her love for Richard. To prove her loyalty, Scarlett had been tasked with betraying Richard. It was a difficult choice but her love for power overpowered any love she had for Richard.She infiltrated Richard's life, using her charm and beauty to lure him into a web of lies. She knew he trusted her implicitly, and she used that trust against him, stealing information from his ship and his comrades, all wh

Sophia shivered. “Is it just me, or is the water colder?”Richard glanced around, his senses on high alert. “Keep moving. Stay calm.”Addams gave a nervous chuckle, trying to mask his growing fear. “Sure, because calm is exactly what I feel right now.”The serpent’s head rose just below the surface, close enough that its outline could be seen if anyone dared to look down. But it remained hidden, trailing them silently.Medusa suddenly stopped, her body tense. “Did you hear that?”Richard paused. “Hear what?”Medusa shook her head. “Maybe nothing…but it felt like something moved beneath us.”Addams’ face paled. “You mean, like a fish? A really big, man-eating fish?”Sophia tried to stay composed. “Let’s not jump to conclusions.”The giant monkey suddenly halted, sniffing the air again. Its low growl rumbled through the water. “Something is here,” it muttered, loud enough for only Richard and Medusa to understand.Richard’s heart raced, but he forced a calm expression. “Keep going,” he

As they began their trek through the thick underbrush, Richard slowed his pace to walk beside Medusa. “There’s something waiting for you when we leave this forest.”Medusa raised an eyebrow. “A surprise? You’re not exactly the surprising type.”Richard’s lips twitched into a rare smile. “It’s not what you think. But you’ll see.”Medusa studied him for a moment. “Do you know about the dragons?”His expression darkened. “Dragons? No. Why do you ask?”“Just a hunch,” Medusa replied, her voice laced with suspicion.Behind them, Addams sidled up to Sophia, his face unusually serious. “I had a dream last night,” he muttered.Sophia glanced at him. “A dream?”“More like a nightmare. We all died in this forest. Every single one of us.”Sophia frowned, brushing off the chill that ran down her spine. “You’re always so negative. It was just a dream.”Addams gave her a look. “Yeah? Let’s hope you’re right.”Suddenly, the giant monkey halted, its massive body going rigid. It sniffed the air, eye

"Do you think Richard will be okay?" Sophia asked, glancing at Medusa."I'm optimistic he will," Medusa replied calmly."Come off it, ladies. Richard's not coming back, and we're screwed in this cursed forest," Addams cut in.Sophia shot Addams a glare. "You're always so negative, aren't you? Richard will come back," she said firmly, though her voice trembled slightly.Medusa remained calm, folding her arms. "Addams, your pessimism is exhausting. Richard has faced worse than this."Addams scoffed, kicking a loose branch. "You know I'm right."Sophia clenched her fists. "If you’ve given up, feel free to leave. But stop dragging the rest of us down."Medusa smirked. "He won’t leave. He’s too scared to wander off on his own.""I would, if that giant gorilla decides to come with me," Addams countered with a smirk.Sophia rolled her eyes. "Ignore him. Medusa, how do we get out of this forest?"Medusa leaned against a tree, her expression calm but weary. "We've been trying for days, and it'

Planet GethenOn Planet Gethen, the beasts arrived at the throne room, seeking an audience with their King. The King of Gethen, seated on his iron throne, watched them carefully. Beside him stood the Berserker beast, a fierce warrior dressed in heavy armor.One of the beasts stepped forward, bowing its head. "We come on behalf of the Ghost Rider. He seeks an alliance."The King's eyes narrowed, "Why would a Ghost Rider seek my aid?""The aliens have invaded Earth," the beast replied. "He believes only an alliance with the Berserkers can stop them."The colonel crossed his arms, "Why should Gethen concern itself with Earth's war?"The beast raised its head. "If the aliens conquer Earth, they will not stop there. Gethen could be next. The Ghost Rider offers a pact: fight together, or risk standing alone."The King leaned back, a smirk curling his lips. "And what does Earth have to offer us? Nothing but weakness. Tell him his offer is rejected."The colonel add

"Very well, Ghost Rider. I have three questions for you." The dragon growled."Answer them correctly, and I'll bond with you. Answer wrong, and you'll be reduced to ash." The dragon halted, its golden eyes fixed on Richard.Richard took a deep breath and steadied himself, meeting the dragon's gaze. "Go on," he said.The dragon’s voice was low and ominous. "I am the whisper in the wind, the shadow on the wall, the echo of a distant call, yet I am not sound at all. What am I?"Richard furrowed his brow, thinking carefully about the riddle. The dragon's golden eyes never left him, and the air around them felt heavy with the pressure of the moment.His mind raced, but he forced himself to focus. He thought for a moment before speaking, his voice steady. "Silence," he said. The dragon's fiery eyes glinted, a hint of approval in its gaze. "Correct," it rumbled, its massive form shifting slightly. "One down. Two to go."Richard let out a breath of relief but stayed focused, knowing he still

“Why do I feel like this is a terrible idea, coming here?” Richard muttered, his voice barely audible over the oppressive silence. He glanced around, weighing his options, thoughts of retreat flickering in his mind.But before he could take another step, a voice echoed through the cavern—deep, guttural, and inhuman.“I can smell your blood... Baldur.”A chilling fear raced down Richard’s spine as the booming voice reverberated through the cave. His breath hitched, and his heart pounded in his chest.“It’s been so long since a Ghost Rider dared to seek me out,” the voice continued, dripping with malevolent amusement. “I almost forgot how delicious they taste.”The ground beneath Richard's feet trembled as the heavy, deliberate footsteps of the dragon echoed through the cavern, each one shaking the cave like distant thunder. The heat intensified, and the air thickened with the scent of sulfur.Richard swallowed hard, the realization sinking in: he was face-to-face with the black queen.

As they continued deeper into the cave, the darkness became suffocating, consuming every hint of light until there was nothing but the flickering glow of Richard’s lightning illuminating their path."So," Doris broke the silence, her voice echoing softly against the cavern walls, "apart from controlling lightning, what other powers do you have?"Richard glanced at her, the soft crackle of electricity sparking from his fingertips. "I can stop time," he answered simply.Doris raised an eyebrow, clearly intrigued. "Stopping time is cool."He smirked. "It has its perks. But what about you? Speed can’t be your only ability."A mischievous grin spread across Doris’s face. "I can stop people’s hearts. Kill them without laying a single finger on them."Richard stopped in his tracks for a second, impressed and unnerved. "That’s… intense," he admitted. "I guess that’s how you handled those aliens earlier."Doris nodded, her smile lingering. "It gets the job done.""And Medusa?" Richard asked, g

Doris flipped between the aliens and the chained baby dragon, her movements fluid and precise. Richard stayed back, watching with cautious eyes."Eliminate the foreign threat," one of the aliens commanded in a cold, mechanical tone.There were twenty of them in total, all heavily armed. The baby dragon struggled weakly against its chains, pushed forward by a machine.The aliens opened fire, but Doris moved with lightning speed, dodging every shot. She was a blur, too fast for their weapons to track.Richard’s eyes widened as he took in the scene. "She’s a speedster," he muttered to himself. "That’s her superpower."Doris twisted in midair, landing gracefully behind an alien and knocking it into the others with a single, powerful kick. She glanced back at Richard, a smirk playing on her lips. "Still just watching? Thought you might be useful."Richard clenched his jaw, frustration flickering in his eyes. "I thought you wanted me to sit this one out."Doris laughed softly. "Changed my m

The dragon stood towering over them, its massive wings unfurling with a powerful gust that sent dust and ashes swirling around Richard and the ghost rider. Its glowing blue eyes locked onto Richard, and for a moment, he was certain this was the end. The dragon's mouth opened wide, its jagged teeth glistening, and Richard braced himself for the inevitable burst of flames.But instead of fire, a deafening roar erupted, shaking the very walls of the cave. The sound echoed like thunder, reverberating through Richard's chest, leaving him momentarily stunned. He felt the raw power of the beast's fury.As the echoes faded, the dragon lowered its head slightly, exhaling a deep rumble, and then, to Richard’s surprise, it turned away. The massive creature walked slowly toward the back of the cave, each step shaking the ground, before settling down into its hide, curling its wings around itself like a protective shield.Richard let out a breath he hadn’t realized he was holding, his heart still
