A loud bell rang and Finn jolted up, he had never heard that bell before. Or at least he thought he had never heard it, he looked around, and Ander who slept in the same room as he did had already left. "At least wake me up." He got up, walking toward the rack he hung his clothes on.The day had started accordingly for each of the members as Finn walked down the stairs he slowly understood what that meant. Sophia who handled their finances from last night was with the innkeeper, haggling the price it would take for their second night. And it seemed like she was pretty good at it with the way the innkeeper kept her expression. It was the face of a woman who was getting 'bargained' harder than she ever had before.He walked out of the door, looking toward the weapon rack on the side of the reception. They were forced to store their weapons there before retreating for the night. Safety measures, the inn-keeper said. He looked at it and both Ander's Great-sword and Rook's Staff were absen
"Ander, your left!" Finn shouted as he slashed at a rat using his sword. "Thanks!" Ander swung his sword killing several rats all at once.They were currently using the first plan and it was more or less going great, they were en route to killing all the rats, and Rook and Sophia were far away from them, safe while they fought. "This is too ea-""Do not jinx us, Sophia," Rook warned. "Too late," Sophia screamed as she heard the screeches of rats as they approached her. "Finn, Ander!""Go!" Ander commanded as he slashed at another rat.[Double boost] Finn boosted into the air once and then maneuvered toward them with the second, while in the air he counted five rats that had climbed a rope to reach them. [Spell creation active]"It's not completely special but it's a useful variant of what I already have."[Fire Magic: Hellblaze (Seeking spread shot)] Finn pointed his arm at them and shot out a scattershot of flame magic, it was newly created and it wasn't mastered yet but that was f
The fire wavered and shook as it created an atmosphere of calm and warmth, Finn and Sophia were the only ones sitting at the fire, while seated beside each other, they avoided making eye contact as they conversed.In the days leading up to this mission they had been alone multiple times and although they had picked up on each other's feelings, they were still awkward. "Do you want my advice, sir?" Dusk whispered and Finn instantly murdered the 'shut up!' He was about to scream."Good weather we have," Sophia said, looking away from the fire as she had just said one of the worst possible things she probably could've."Yeah good—- weather." Finn looked at the sky and chuckled. "I'm guessing you're just as nervous as I am."Sophia finally turned her face and looked at him. "Was it that obvious?" She smiled and Finn walked closer as she did.Since their accidental meeting that one evening in the dorms, they had been together throughout their time in the academy, and even after they graduat
The blood of Sophia was on his arms, the blood of Ander was on his clothes and the blood of Rook was on his face. What happened? The same instant Dusk told him to dodge what seemed like flash of light tore through all of them in an instant.His mind wasn't working well, he was going crazy. The one person he had finally wanted to spend the rest of his life with in this world was dead and her killer stood before him, nonchalantly talking to himself like this was just another day. "Oh you're still awake?" The creature in mans clothing walked toward him."If I remember correctly your the imitator right? Or no your the second one whats it called. Something about patterns.... Kaleidoscope yes!" He bent down, "I can't eat you since we're making a cauldron but I don't think we need you alive." He didn't care about what the creature had been talking about, that was the point at which he was. All he cared about was Sophia, he looked at her, praying and hoping to the Gods he had never served tha
The small western like doors of the bar were opened and they walked in. They looked around as they did and they sat down on the opposite side of the bar where they could see its entirety."What do you want, Sir?" The waiter walked up to them, holding a check-board in her hand."We're fine on the food, all we have are some questions." The man on of the two spoke. "Come closer." The waiter, stopped for a while before putting her head closer to the mans face. "Do you want to die with these people?" He asked and she stepped back."Darwin, you're gonna scare her to death." His companion hit his knee. "Sorry darling, we just mean. Do you want to go down with the dumb fucks in here?!""And here you are making it worse, Paige." Darwin slammed his head as he sighed. "So whats your answer waitress-lady? You gonna out the demon you guys are hiding in the back or are we going to have to tear through the building ourselves."He knows about the demon kill them!" One of the men got up, within his ar
The entire world was black, or atleast his vision was. He opened his eyes, and he was stood in the middle of a road, opposite him was a woman he didn't recognize.Now that he thought about it, he didn't recognize anywhere he saw, he looked around and to his sides were nightmarish figures that escaped from the depths of a broken humans imaginations.Octopuses with the body's of humans, crabs with the body's of horses, dragons souring the skies, cows dressed in formal attire, as if going for an interview at a grand establishment. He couldn't fathom what was happening currently, however even after looking around for what seemed like minutes the only other human he saw was the one that had stood right in-front of him. He glanced at her and so did she, it was almost as if they had the exact same thought process. Because as if connected to the same brain both of them ran away toward an empty alley away from all the weirdness that polluted the main roads."Please can you tell me what the fu

As they stepped into a carriage headed for Gales in the search of Ethan and the party he set out to create, Taera and Ashley kissed as they lay in a stack of hay.Their bodies were warm and their grabbed themselves, getting further aroused in their warmth. "I love you, Ashley." Taera said as she kissed her partners mouth, before whispering sweet nothings into her ear.Ashley moaned as Taera bit her ear, slipping one hand into her pants trying to pleasure her as well but as they got into their mood for their erotic play. The door that shielded their room away from outside had burst open, causing them to jolt up in fear. "What was that?A tall figure walked into the building, his silhouette was made dark due to the fact he was blocking the doors light, however when he approached them a little bit they saw blood all over his clothes. "Bad time?" He chuckled."Who are you?" Taera asked as she used her hand to defend Ashley."That little rat really did give up your locations, looks like the
