Chapter 127
It was the day after she’d watched Martin. Sonya stepped through one of her portals and into the quiet interior of her office. The lights came on of their own accord as she strode over to her desk. The wall-screen came on line and the feeds immediately appeared, spreading around her. She barely paid any attention to it, her astral eyes already forming on the ceiling and observing. If somethin...

Sonya sat back in her chair, her expression thoughtful. The story that Chunhua had told was strange, she didn’t recognize any of the characters in it but her gut told her that it was important somehow. It was like Chunhua was trying to explain something without explaining it. She rubbed her chin, Did it have something to do with her vision after ascending to the next stage of her ability?...

Chunhua settled in a bit, she felt a little bad about scaring Sonya, but that was some payback for the forgiveness comment earlier. She smiled a little to herself and scratched her nose. She’d never outright forgiven Chunhua for what she’d done and how she’d acted. Though it was a little funny coming from someone who had a hard time accepting forgiveness for herself. She rubbed her neck a...

The walk across the sand was short, but in that time Sonya had a lot to think about. She thought about the aspirants, about how far they’d all come in such a short time. The kind of effect this place had on people. The hard work they’d put in. She thought about the people she knew, she’d affected, and the people she’d killed. She thought about the past and the future, where she came fro...

Sonya slurped at her drink, leaning against the rail of the patio outside of her beach house. She watched the aspirants enjoy themselves as the sun continued to move further and further down. She wished she could have joined them in the water herself but a single thought back to the last time she attempted to jump into the water made her pause and frown. She sipped irritably at her drink as the...

Just like the entrance to the hallway, the stairwell was hidden in plain sight by the walls simulating the outside. It would have been much easier to see if they had been deactivated, but Ollie figured that this was kind of the point. Navigating this place required an understanding of it. More importantly, most of what he had already seen in the living room alone was clearly experimental. He co...

Val shoved his hands into his pockets as they walked in the dark, leaving the brightly lit pseudo hallway behind them. He glanced over his shoulder only once to see Greg and Alex making their way towards the first door they saw. Val reached down and scratched at his elbow, sniffing a little and glancing over at John. Among their little circle of friends, he was closest to John. The guy’s stoi...

Greg hurried after Alex as he disappeared into the hallway. It was disorienting. The walls in the hallway were set up to meld with the walls of the living room, giving it the illusion that the hallway didn’t even exist unless one was standing right next to it and saw where the opening was. Ahead of him he could see where the illusion finally broke, the hallway splitting into two dark paths th...

Here it is, the infamous 100. There's a TW. It may or may not be necessary but I'm being careful here. Please enjoy, be kind to one another, and remember it's just a story.

Greg crept forward, slowly moving across the carefully trimmed grass. His fingers brushed against the surface, his powers set to as low as possible. Just enough to reduce the sound of impacts from footsteps and ease the pressure on the grass itself. It was great practice, really, he should honestly do it more often. Just maybe not in this particular context. His gut twisted nervously again and ...

Hey supervillains! The release this week is shifted just slightly. The short is coming out on tuesday and a full chapter on wednesday. It'll make sense. Enjoy!

Sonya smiled at the young couple as Lillian broke into a brief dash before scooping Snow up into her arms. She thumbed her nose and walked past, chuckling to herself and patting Chunhua on the arm, “Thanks for playing along,” She said as she winked at Alex and Greg who were both staring at the pair, dumbstruck.
Chunhua shrugged a little while Marta and Carla caught up. “It was fun,...

Lily threw the bag over her shoulder, tugging a bit on the strap to make sure it was secure. She scratched at her neck and looked around her bunk, making sure she hadn’t missed anything. Over the past four weeks the space had evolved from a place where she crashed after a long day of training into a real home for herself, so to speak. One of the girls had an ability that was able to shape raw...

Reinforced heels clicked against the marble floor as three men stormed down the halls of that sacred place. The sound resonated through the space, warning any who were thinking of stepping out to think twice. Two guards walked at either side of a man in a suit and tie. They both wore white robes fitted with hoods, sheer black masks lined with polished steel covered their heads. He himself wore ...

The lurker prowled across the top of the building. It had eaten well that night. The creature it had hunted was succulent, tasty, the faint flicker of mana within making the meal all the more nourishing. It would grow stronger with each kill, wiser, every correct decision another step towards something more than it could comprehend. It was a predator and this dusty, dry, unforgiving land of sto...

The camp was abuzz, as always, everyone was talking about the big trip. Apparently the Chernovna woman was going to be taking them to the beach the next day. He wasn’t fond of the beach, but it was a good enough way to get some air he supposed. He had been stuck here for four weeks, going through the motions and following the instructions set before him. Play nice with others, make a few frie...

Sonya marveled at the disk floating in her hand, it was beautiful, but also a little scary. That golden glow looked a little familiar too. She’d seen it once before, though not in this state. Like it was on the cusp of becoming something so very much more. She cradled the sparking and twitching disk for a moment before gently putting it to the side with the others in her warehouse....

Sonya and Chunhua held one another’s gaze. A silence stretching out between the two of them. Chunhua’s expression fell for a moment before she closed her eyes and sighed. She put her hands on her hips and shook her head, “You really don’t take half measures,” She muttered and looked up at her. She smiled, though the expression was one with a bit of pain in it, concern. She scratched t...
