Jaden's body trembled with exhaustion, his chest rising and falling rapidly as he struggled to regain his breath. Beads of sweat dripped down his face, leaving damp imprints on the ground beneath him. Frustration gripped his mind, as he realized he couldn't even land a single blow on Miss Thompson or Alex. He cursed his physical limitations, yearning to break free from them and grow stronger. He knew he couldn't give up, for his own sake and to unravel the truth behind his father's untimely demise.

Miss Thompson observed Jaden intently, her gaze fixed upon him. "You must push through, Jaden. Don't give up now," she urged with a sense of determination.

Suddenly, Jaden straightened up, his eyes scanning the surroundings as if searching for something elusive. Then, without warning, he jerked back as if struck by an unseen force. His eyes rolled back, leaving only the whites visible, and his body convulsed as if seized by a powerful tremor.

"Jaden!" Alex and Miss Thompson cried out in ala

    As he watched the little lady sleep, her head resting on his lap, he couldn't help but feel her soft breaths brush against his thigh. The old wooden chair creaked as he leaned back, the rough fabric of the cushions rustling beneath him. The room was dimly lit by a solitary candle, casting flickering shadows on the walls.So many thoughts raced through his mind as he studied her intently. The musty smell of the old cottage filled his nostrils, a mix of damp earth and aged wood. The sound of the wind whistling through the cracks in the walls added to the eerie atmosphere.She had been staying in his house for more than a month now, and it wasn't until today that she had finally spoken to him. Maybe that was the reason he hadn't forced her to leave yet. He couldn't forget the way she had looked at him, begging him not to abandon her.At first, he assumed she was mute since she never spoke to him, even when he yelled. But he found it difficult to maintain his hostile demeanor because ever

  • Screams from the Abyss   I Am Arcanis

    Jaden was left utterly bewildered by the whirlwind of events that had unfolded. Miss Thompson's words had left him grappling with the unsettling idea that someone else had wrested control of his very body. His thoughts involuntarily circled back to the reflection he had seen in the mirror—the voice that always seemed to brim with irritation and arrogance. Yet, beneath the veil of egotism, he sensed an undercurrent of anguish in that voice. The question nagging him was: who was this person, and what were their intentions?As he pondered, Jaden's mind involuntarily drifted back to the tomb where his ordeal had begun. Vivid memories surfaced—the details of his arrival, the cryptic bracelet that had led him to the tomb. Suddenly, he realized with a start that the bracelet was absent.

    "Love," He mused, gazing up at the expanse of the universe. "What's that, what does it feel like, where does it exist? In the vast space, the very fabric that clothes the universe, that gives it meaning?."In the great chamber that was always illuminated by a blinding light, the other gods couldn't approach without a permit. The being that clothed itself in light was a beautiful splendor of grace."Arcanis, what have you done!" boomed a deep voice in the chamber, causing the very foundation to shake from its power. Arcanis felt every part of him vibrate as his body started to feel feeble from the overbearing energy that pressed down on him. He could feel his energy slowly leaving him as his knees grew weak and a burning sensation coursed through his skin, causing him to quiver.He tried to look up, but the light seemed to be getting brighter, forcing him to shield his eyes with his arm. The overbearing energy in the room kept growing, causing him to fall to his knees. Slowly, his skin

  • Screams from the Abyss   The World Is Changing

    Jaden had spent the night in school, since he couldn't go home because the fact that he didn't have total control of his body, and the fear of Arcanis popping out at anytime was the reason Miss Thompson had taken him to the school infirmary where she could watch him.After he was treated, the doctor had briefed them about his condition. Arcanis possession had taken a serious toll on his body, causing him to break down. If he had spent any more time in possession, Jaden would have died. But it seemed that Arcanis was aware of this, which was why he didn't go any further in the battle.Amazingly, Jaden's recovery was quite fast, which surprised Miss Thompson, but she could only assume it had to do with Arcanis present in his body which piqued her curiosity. Who was this entity?She couldn't help but feel guilty for what had happened to Jaden. If she had been closer to him, if she had paid more attention, she would have noticed he was missing from the group earlier and could have prevent

    The boys followed behind Miss Thompson, as she led them through the city streets towards her home. They had never been to their teacher's house before and were eager to see where she lived.As they approached the building, they could see that it was a tall and modern structure, with a sleek design that stood out against the surrounding buildings. The entrance was an impressive glass door that slid open as they approached, revealing a lobby with high ceilings and marble floors.Miss Thompson led them to the elevator and pressed the button for the top floor. As they rose higher and higher, Jaden and Alex could feel their excitement growing. Finally, the doors opened and they stepped out into a wide hallway, with the sounds of a fountain filling the air.Miss Thompson led them towards the end of the hallway, where a set of double doors stood. As they entered, Jaden and Alex were speechless. The penthouse was enormous, with floor-to-ceiling windows that offered a panoramic view of the cit

  • Screams from the Abyss   Fight!

    Jaden was in a dilemma, carefully weighing the options laid out before him. He knew Arcanis was only interested in using him, and didn't care about his feelings. However, he needed to have a little control over Arcanis, and making this deal could give him just that. The terms of the deal would have to work in his favor too, so that he could gain enough power to be able to uncover the secret behind his father's death. It was an uphill task because apparently the forces at play were way beyond his current level.Jaden was acutely aware that Arcanis could read his thoughts, which meant the he already knew his decisions before he made them. "It's no use," Jaden sighed, running his fingers through his hair, revealing his gray eyes. A newfound determination shone in them, and he looked directly at Arcanis with a wide grin. "Let's do it," he declared, his grin widening."Good" Arcanis replied."But," Jaden interjected, "I'll agree to your terms only if you agree to mine. And you can't just c

    Jaden felt his consciousness slipping away, the familiar voice of Arcanis growing distant as darkness enveloped him."No... I can't stop... I have to keep going," Jaden screamed inwardly, fighting to stay conscious.Gradually, everything turned black, and a profound silence surrounded him. He felt detached from his senses, as if suspended in nothingness. "It's so quiet... Did I fail? Am I dead?" Jaden's voice echoed in his subconscious, filled with uncertainty."You've gone far enough," a deep, familiar voice echoed through the darkness."Dad?" Jaden's voice rang out, puzzled by the presence of his father in this ethereal realm.Slowly, Jaden opened his eyes, greeted by the fragrance of flowers and the gentle rustling of trees. He found himself lying on his back, gazing up at the night sky adorned with shimmering stars.Rising up to sit, Jaden surveyed his surroundings, trying to make sense of where he was. The lush trees embraced him, their branches swaying in harmony with the breez

    During the grueling training, Jaden had lost all sense of time, feeling utterly drained both physically and mentally. His determination and the constant urging of Arcanis were the only things that kept him going.As he struggled to comprehend how long he had endured in that desert, Jaden couldn't help but question Arcanis. His brows furrowed in confusion as he asked internally, "Where did you take me, Arcanis?"The perplexity on Jaden's face was unmistakable; he knew that everything he had experienced was undeniably real, evidenced by his wounds and overwhelming exhaustion."A space between realities. Time behaves differently there," resonated Arcanis's deep voice in his mind.Jaden fell into a brief silence, his furrowed brows reflecting his attempt to grasp Arcanis's explanation. Frustrated, he snapped in his mind,"Just speak in a way I can understand, damn it."Arcanis sighed internally, exclaiming, "This child is clueless."

Not just learning, but challenging everything we've taught." Raven's essence expanded, probing the far reaches of their transformed reality. "I sense it too. The cosmic curriculum we've created... it's sparked a kind of universal critical thinking. Entities across all realities are not just absorbing our lessons, but actively interrogating them, pushing against the very concepts of balance and harmony we've established."

    The Prism of Infinite Perspectives

    The guardians struggled to comprehend the growing refraction. It wasn't a fracturing of reality, not a breakdown of the eternal moment, but a concept so profound that it threatened to redefine the very nature of perception and existence itself. In a way that defied every logic they have come to understand.Lyra's voice cut through the quantum foam, tinged with a mix of wonder and confusion. "Something's... different. It's like the moment is being viewed through countless lenses, each one showing a completely different aspect of existence."Raven's essence expanded, probing the edges of this cosmic anomaly.

If that wasn't a joke, what else was? Lyra's voice, chorused with a thousand voices of different melodies, but in it held profound sadness. "I can't... I don't know how to create anymore. Every song I could ever compose already exists in this eternal moment. How do we bring about change or growth when everything that could be already is?" Raven's vast mind, now a repository of all knowledge across all time, struggled to form new thoughts. "The concept of discovery has become... obsolete. I know everything that can be known, past, present, and future. How can we learn or progress when all information already exists simultaneously?" Zephyr, his will now both eternally resol
