Fool's World: The Start (ch. 30)

In a perfect world, we would have a grand fleet of nine ships and freed a total of a thousand prisoners. We wouldn't have taken any losses either. But, my entire existence was a testament that we didn't live in a perfect world. Freeing a thousand ...

Fool's World: Prison Break (ch. 29)

"Zuko lied, but Iroh's answer lined up with the consensus," I said, drawing a circle around the stretch of ocean between Kyoshi Island and Omashu. Some of it had been guesstimates by members of the crew, but the firebenders had better intel. Some ...

Legends Never Die: Hard Living (ch. 3)

The pace of change was a fickle thing, I learned. It can crash over you like a tidal wave, sweeping you out to sea. Yet, other times, it was slow. Gradual. Glacial. Like the slow encroaching of a glacier. Change was something that you couldn't run...

Legends Never Die: Forewarned (ch. 2)

Another two years passed without incident, making me twelve years old. Everything returned back to normal after my visit to the Wise Woman. Mother had just embraced me when I returned, and Father had told her what had been said. She had said that ...

See No Evil: Do No Evil (ch. 90) (Finale)

Jason Todd looked at me like he barely recognized me, his gaze sweeping over my attire. I cocked an eyebrow right back at him, taking in his ratty red hoodie and cargo shorts. "What are you wearing?" He asked me bluntly, sounding actually disquiet...

See No Evil: Speak No Evil (ch. 89)

"I won't accept this!" Kalibak, one of Darkseid's favored sons, a half man half beast looking god. He was a powerful warrior. God-like, but not a god in truth. Darkseid had conceived him in every universe because despite his shortcomings, he was a...

Gone Native: Old Enemies (ch. 46)

I breathed in deeply, holding the air in my lungs, before letting it out slowly after a long minute. Only once my lungs were empty to the point it felt like they were going to collapse did I repeat the process -- taking in a long slow breath, hold...

Gone Native: Big Leagues (ch. 45)

The power that surged through me wasn’t an explosion of strength like what I associated with the Wrath State or Super Saiyan transformations. My ki didn’t multiply several fold, granting me impossible strength and speed. It didn’t feel like ...

Gone Native: Killing Because I'm Hungry (ch. 44)

Even as I absorbed the power into myself, I could already feel it fading. Much like a flickering candle in the wind that slowly ran out of wick to burn, but it remained lit with stubborn defiance. With my expanded senses and the ability to feel th...

Gone Native: Hard Truths and Training Wheels (ch. 43)

“What am I witnessing?” I heard Diana mutter to herself as we watched a battle of gods erupt in the skies above Themyscira. Ares apparently hadn’t needed his chariot to fly, but he seemed to prefer fighting in it as the two streaked across t...

Fool's World: Sliver of Hope (ch. 31)

"Your first deadly challenge shall be… to beat me in a game of Pai Sho," The King of Omashu declared after a dramatic pause that made everyone else in the room tense. I waited a moment, vaguely familiar with the game on account that Iroh had als...

Fool's World: Clashing Tides (ch. 28)

Firebenders, I quickly found, were very easy to read. Zuko, the scarred prince, channeled his bending from a deep well of resentment, anger, and frustration. It welled up from deep in his gut that he channeled up his chest, down his arm, then thro...

Legends Never Die: The Honored One (ch. 1)

“Pot licking, foul-assed, bitch,” I cursed, getting Havi into a chokehold. He was my least eldest brother, though still three years older than me. We didn’t share a mother, but no one really cared about that. In response, Tormond, one of my ...

See No Evil: Hear No Evil (ch. 88)

Apokolips was hot. Of all the things I could have noticed when I stepped out of the wormhole through time and space to arrive on the homeworld of the evil New Gods, that was it. The sky was completely pitch black, not so much as a star to be seen ...

Risk It All: Gambling Principle (ch. 38)

"You killed him," I heard myself say, my gaze looking beyond Klarion the Witch Boy to the fallen form of Kent Nelson. He laid on the street, his white shirt dyed red as his blood seeped out into the pavement. I couldn't see his face. I… I hadn't...

Gone Native: Battle of Gods (ch. 42)

"So, if I call this Zeus guy a sissy, he'll come down to fight me?" Elery questioned and, upon reflection, I realized I made a terrible mistake by bringing my family to this event. Because my mother wasn't any better.

"Or make fun of his dic...

Fool's World: War and Peace (ch. 27)

"I think you're wrong about Aang," Katara informed me as I leaned over a few maps. They seemed a bit dated, but the terrain was unlikely to have changed that much. I had a map of the Earth Kingdom and the Fire Nation that marked villages and citie...
