UNRULY AY-THE FOURTH RAIKAGE
Ay watched Namikazee standing there, those orange markings underneath his eyes showcasing the mastery of senjutsu, a technique that only a handful of shinobi had ever mastered.
To his senses, that bastard’s chakra felt at ease, calm like an ocean, even though his senses screamed at him to run and escape, and yet he could not do that.
He was teh Raikage, the leader of his village, and if they we...

PAUL ATREIDES
Paul’s decision has been made for him. Despite his sparring with Chani and all the other preparation he had undertaken, it was becoming evident to him that he truly had no choice but to undergo the ritual and embrace his destiny.
It was a risk, one that he felt that he had no choice but to take. And so, after asking Chani for the details, he picked up his bag discreetly, hoping that his movements would escape the n...

OTTO HIGHTOWER
Otto Hightower could scarcely watch his daughter scampering with the son of the damned Rogue Prince, and yet he could do little at the moment as he stood there and observed the feast and celebration.
And what celebration? In his mind, it should be a mourning, for the Crown has only weakened with the bonding of Silverwing and Aegon. The court could sense it, too. Yet the King languished in the finest of vines and mea...

HIRUZEN SARUTOBI
Hiruzen Sarutobi had become truly old; he was amongst the oldest shinobi alive today and had seen the shift of the eras from the Warring State Period to the era of the Five Great Nations, a change led by his sensei and his brother, Hashirama Senju.
It was a step towards the establishment of peace, a step towards making sure that no young children would be forced to fight anymore. And yet the dream had failed to de...

The word, the visions they had only gotten stronger with every passing day. The Spice in the air began to grate away at his senses, heightening them in some ways, altering them in others.
And while in the past he had only glimpsed scenes, fleeting images, now his visions were more akin to a movie, a short one, and yet made of people and scenarios that had never happened. That may never happen.
And in nearly all...

MAYUMI SAEGUSA
With the Nine School Competition set to begin soon, she is going to get rather busy. The convention with the course two students had healed much of the wounds and scars caused by the riots and the terrorist attack and had brought the school together.
It allowed her to address the issue of prejudice openly and started a positive conversation about the issues and the division at school. She had laid the first brick fo...

Pain and stillness had long become her friends as she lay there in her bed, waiting for a death that never came. Her body burned from the inside, a power so unknown, ate away at her slowly, yet the embrace of death never came, as if afraid of her.
And then, only years later, she would realize the truth, realize that death was indeed afraid of her, or rather so of the one who stood behind her. The news had come from a whisper, a desperate cr...

Much had changed for Kushina Uzumaki in the last two years, and her life, which at one point seemed like a directionless ship, was now filled with activity once more.
The birth of her son, the learning of the truth of the bijuu, becoming a complete jinchuriki, and so forth, she could argue that she had grown more in the last few years than she had in the last decade.
And now, as she blurred through a throng o...

The sense of betrayal and loss she had felt learning of her father’s actions had sent her into a trance that had taken her weeks to come out of. All her life, Irulan had known of her father’s desire for a son, had felt overshadowed by that desire and had pushed herself beyond the norm to fill the gap, to make it so that she could one day if asked, fill the shows of the heir her father so sorely desired.

Deep under the castle at the center of Arrakeen was a prison, a place of sheer deprivation and cruelty. Before the ‘independence,’ it was known as Animal’s Layer, for this was the place where Rabban, the Baron’s nephew and governor of Arrakis, would bring the prisoners to be tortured for information or entertainment.
Inzal himself had broken out many a Fremen from this very place, had seen with his own eyes t...
