The Calm... Part 86
I'm awake. Man, I was really motherfucking tired... If i was still a normal person I'd probably sore as hell. Lovin' this healing factor. In spite of everything that's gone down, I'm relatively content right now. My girl is back. First win of the year. I'm far from being absolved, but i feel like now I've made progress towards making up for my failures.

What The Hell Are All These Squiggly Lines? ... Part 85
"What are we doing back here?"
"I needed some place to go and this is kind of the only place I have."
"Why did you choose this place? You have mountains and crystal caves and undiscovered abandoned ruins, but you choose to meditate here."
"It's the only place that makes sense. No one can find me here. If we were playing hide and seek, I would never lose."
"It is not my job to question your decisions. I was just curious to know why we were back ....... here."
"It's still your home. You don't have to refer to it as some foreign place."
"This has stopped being a home for us some time ago. We like to refer to it as our prison."
"I understand. I apologize for bringing you here then, we will leave as soon as I am ready."
"No need to apologize, you didn't force us to come here. We are here voluntarily to update you on our assignment."
"Assignment?"
"The scrolls, sir."
"Oh shit, all this training made me completely lose focus. What news do you have?"
"We have them in our possession."
I felt as if this was a joke. All the time I spent getting these scrolls and Raven just assembles them and brings them forth. If it was anyone else, I wouldn't have believed them but Raven doesn't seem to have a sense of humor. That is definitely something to work on.
"Wow, in that case could you please take a more humanoid form. It feels rather weird to talk to a panther."
The transformation was almost instantaneous. The form Raven took was rather peculiar. The female form looked familiar but at the same time no name came to mind.
"Is this satisfactory?"
"Yea thats great, who's form is that?"
"It is a combination of the forms of our people and the forms of the population that we encountered on our journey."
"You really know how to put on a show."
"Thank you, now are the lights off for a reason?"
"Lights?"
"Yes, the lights. We're going to go look if the training rooms have been repaired and turn the lights on. We apologize for interrupting your meditation."
"It's perfectly alright, but before you go, could I get those scrolls?"
"Certainly."
Raven walked off into the distance. After Raven disappeared from sight a clicking sounds started to echo throughout the room. The clicking paused and the door closed shut. I assume Raven took the form of the old man for old times sake. The lights came on shortly after the door closed and I laid out all the scrolls and the heart of Dracula before me. It took several minutes of looking in amazement at this collage before I realized that I had absolutely no idea what the scrolls had to say. I can't believe I had half of them all this time and never bothered to look at them. Why can't something be easy for once. I needed to find someone who knew what was on these scrolls. Just as the thought took place in my head the doors behind me opened and the clicking of the cane resumed to echo in the room. It was a hell of a chance but it was a chance that couldn't be wasted.
"We see you finally looked at those scrolls."

And so the story continues ... Part 84
It has been several months since I began my training as a horseman and I must admit, it was rather entertaining at the beginning. Animals waging wars and humans battling to their dying breath with nerf guns is entertaining but does eventually get boring, but no matter how fun everything has to come to an end. As I killed of the remainder of the cows that were winning in yet another cow/horse mini-war I decided that it was time to head back and that my powers were under enough control for now. I set out to the underworld.
Which was surprisingly empty. I was rather confused, everyone was gone. No minions in sight, no generals, no advisors. Every room was empty and still as if no one had entered them since we all separated. I couldn't help but feel lost and confused. What has happened since our departure? Where is everyone? Why is the underworld so ..... dead? Questions flooded my mind and the lack of answers brought a fog to my head. I was walking aimlessly from room to room hoping to find any sign of life or death but none appeared. Even the news held no answers but did have an interesting bit on some exploding nebula that might create a second sun. Sounded like a complete load of shit to me but who knows, anything is possible.
After awhile I gave up my search and went to my room. Nothing had been moved, even the crumbs from something I ate before leaving.
It felt like a dream. It could only be described as a vivid scene constructed by my subconscious and I wanted to believe that it was but everything was so real. I wanted to deny what I was seeing but it was right in front of me. The empty void that used to be so full of death. The stillness is surreal in comparison to the busyness of the place before I left, granted it was going through a change in management. I knew I couldn't stay here, it was too quiet, too still.
I pulled a portal from my jacket. The motions have almost become fluid from practice. It was the last place I wanted to go but at the same time, it was the only place to go. All I could do was close my eyes and step through the portal.
The rushing currents welcomed me. It seemed like the whole city was aware that I had arrived, or maybe it was just the souls of the previous residents in the pocket of my jacket. It was nice to feel welcomed nonetheless, even if it was in the most solitary place no one knows exist.
I opened my eyes to complete darkness. I hadn't anticipated the time. I wasn't tired but felt exhausted. I pulled out something that glowed and a mat to sit on. I sat and began to meditate.
The world slowly drifted further away, all the cares were dissolving and any thought of the mission that was ahead siphoned out of my mind. It would be an understatement to call the feeling bliss. All I knew is that I didn't have a care in the world and that I was alone in the most secluded place on Earth. So I did the only thing to do.
I waited.

Nerf wars and suicide wishes ... Part 83
I was lost. I didn't know what to do. I had the power of War. What am I supposed to do with that. Ramsey and Zac had left as well leaving me alone in the underworld. I went ahead and portaled out since there was nothing left to do in hell and I needed to get used to these new powers. I arrived somewhere in Europe. I didn't exactly know where I was but decided to go ahead and practice here. A couple of strangers walked by as I emerged from the alley. I didn't catch the language they were speaking. I was still slightly sick from eating the heart but contiuned on with trying to find somewhere to practice these new powers.
I later found a large pasture of cows and horses. I thought it would be interesting to see such a battle. I focused my energy and suddenly the horses began to run circles around the cows.
Shortly before I left, the horses were being trampled by the herd of cows. After the cow/horse fight I portaled to an office building. It was still rather early and no one has had their lunch break yet. I began my plan. Every person who left for lunch came back with a large shopping bag. No one questioned these bags due to my control over them.
As the day came to an end and the time for all the office prisoners to go home neared, every one disappeared and reemerged as a small army with Nerf weapons. The battle broke out as the clock stroke 5:00 pm. The acting performed by these office workers was rather impressive. People were falling all over the place, guns were being taken from "corpses".
As the army fell, the boss emerged from his office and took out the remaining peons still standing. As the boss finished his massacre, all involved started to come back to their senses, I did not stay long enought to watch the aftermath, my work was done. I ported back to hell and met up with Raven.

Good Night... Rude Awakening
So... let's just say I'm tired of waiting and I decided to write a little mini story of my own. I may or may not continue writing. No fantasy, all possible, real life type stuff. The main character (also narrator) is a douchebag. You can tell. The second character is a crazy bitch (or is she?). He deserves the craziness except for the fact that no one deserves that... except for him...? I dunno. Anyway, hate him, idolize him, whatever you want. If I keep writing I'll probably develop him into even more of an asshole. And her into a very clever, very devious person. I guess you could call it a satire? I dunno. Maybe not. My thoughts are kinda jumbled right now... Oh, and I would love feedback. Anyway, here's the story. Starting... now.
Its a good night. I can tell. I just dumped my girlfriend and kicked her ass out of my apartment. Yep, I'm feeling good. So now I'm at the club behind this chick, and she is puttin' it on me. Damn. I think I'll take her to the crib. I give her the "it's getting crowded in here" cliche and we get in the car and head to my place. It is a good night, and a good morning. We take care of busiess until at least 8 AM but eventually I tire her out and we fall asleep.
Later that morning I wake back up ready to kick her out and get on about my business. Instead, I wake up to her beautiful smiling face and an equally beautiful breakfast in bed. They say the way to a mans heart is through his stomach. I can't say that thats completely true, but it'll definitely give you a leg up on the competition if you can make a mean breakfast. That, and a good message. But I digress.
She made a mean breakfast. She had a stack of blueberry pancakes drowned in syrup just like I like it, smoke sausage, scrambled eggs and cheese grits. She even had milk, OJ, and Welch's Grape Juice on the side, just in case I didn't like one of them. I didn't even know I had all of this in the fridge.
At first I hesitated. Doesn't she know proper club etiquette? Guy meets girl. Girl and guy go home. Girl and guy have sex. Girl leaves, never to be seen again unless the guy decides that she is worth it, in which case he gets her number and calls her when he feels like it.
I shrug. She can't be that dense. She just did this because I'm the best she ever had and she just wants to repay me. Yeah, that's it.
I decide I can wait until afterwards to kick her out. She deserves an extra hour of my time. I wolf down the most delicious breakfast I had tasted since I lived in my mother's house, then we jump in the shower to wash off the alcohol and smoke that is native to the club.
When we emerge, I have to admire myself in the mirror. "They call me the heath inspector." I flex for her. "Look at me. All glistenin' and shit." Then I go ahead get dressed. I give her some boy shorts and a button up shirt because, hey, it looks sexy.
"Can you drop me off by my place?"
"Hell, why not. Yeah, I'll do it. But only if you give me you cell number first."
She navigates me to her apartment. I pull up in the parking lot in front of her place.
"Thanks. See ya!"
"Hey, no problem. I'll call you sometime."
She giggles.
"Alright."
I watch her as she walks away. She's got one nice ass... I snap a couple pictures as she walks away.
"Hey! Bend over for a sec!"
"I was wondering what that camera was for!"
I take a few more. She just laughs. That's a keeper.
Once I leave her place, I call up my boys. We decide to meet up at Ricky's house and play poker. I always win, but I let them get back just enough to where they'll keep playing. I'd estimate about $300 in earnings between the 5 of them tonight. They all got paid today so I'll be able to take more money. Not bad at all. Not for one night among friends that is.
After a great game of Texas Hold 'Em, I drive back home with $342 in my pocket. Great, even more than I thought. I get to the door in front of my apartment and notice something strange. I hear the TV on. I don't remember watching any TV today... Oh yeah, that girl. She must've watched it this morning while she was making breakfast. I put the key into the door, but to my surprise it opens and I'm looking at an all to familiar face.
"What the fuck! How the FUCK did you get in my apartment?!?!"
She gave me a very confused look.
"Since we were already going to be moving in together I took your keys and got that one copied. Why do you look so surprised?"
I can't even think up a good response to that. The best I manage is a facepalm.
"W.T.Fuck!"
