THOMAS WAYNE
It had been a week since he had woken up, and though he had yet to complete his recovery, Thomas was getting frustrated because he didn’t like hospitals and so after a week of oversight, he had finally managed to convince the doctors that he could sufficiently finish his recovery at Wayne manor.
“I still believe you should stay in the hospital for a bit longer,” Rahcel’s voice cut in from behind as Alfred help...

AKIHITO SHIRAHOSHI
“What?” he questioned once more as the servant reported the news.
“Indeed, my lord. The Daimyo-sama passed away in the morning,” and the words shook him to the core, for he had received little news about the daimyo-sama’s illness, and the news of his death was rather out of the blue.
“How?” he questioned after a second, trying to piece together the whole picture.
The servant handed him ...

AENYS TARGARYEN
Aenys Targaryen sat in his solar, waiting for the upcoming meeting as he played around with a letter opener, as the castle entered the final phase of preparations for the upcoming nuptials of its heir and Princess.
The wedding had been pushed forward by two weeks to accommodate the lords, who were reaching the capital from all corners of the continent and hence had been brought to quite near the date of Daemon’s ...

THOMAS WAYNE
“It is good to see you, Dr Isley,” he said as he lay there on the hospital bed; the redhead woman stood beside him, a bouquet of flowers in her hands, a small basket of what seemed to be fruits dangling from the other one as she smiled nervously.
“It’s the least I could do,” she said as Selina walked forward and took the bouquet from her, motioning for her to sit down.
“No. No, it’s fine. You shoul...

TATSUYA SHIRAHOSHI-The Third Prince
The Third Prince of the realm stilled at his mother’s words, his emotions roused by a sense of betrayal and rage at the actions of his now-dead father.
“What are we to do now?” he questioned, in a snarl filled with rage and anger at the naming of that jumped-up bastard as the next daimyo. How could his father overlook his own blood like that?
His fists balled up in rage, yet a part o...

ONE MONTH LATER
BRUCE WAYNE
Today marked a month since the calamity now known as the ‘Toxic Rain’ struck Gotham, devolving the city and causing havoc and mayhem all over. Despite the heroic actions of the leaders of Wayne Enterprises, the city did not come out unscathed.
The rain had begun before the antidote could be distributed widely and had caused a massive amount of destruction all over. The League ...

Chapter 2-I am Back!
A small boat rocked violently as it traversed across the Narrow Sea, though for its size the ship had on it only a few men and amongst them a single woman. Clad in a red dress that hugged her body, she found herself sitting opposite the burnt body of a man.
No. Not a man.
“You!” the man snarled in rage as he looked at the red-haired woman. The fire had rendered his body writhed in pain.
“It was ...

AKIHITO SHIRAHOSHI
Akihito Shirahoshi felt his body ache as he made to open his eyes. The vision was blurry, the injuries from the battles last night had been extensive enough that he had lost consciousness halfway through the journey to the western fort, yet it didn’t matter.
For they had won.
At great cost, though, of the initial hundred that had ridden out with him, he had lost twenty-three men last night, yet the numbe...

“Rhaenyra is pregnant!” she questioned incredulously as Aenys settled down beside her on the bed, and he nodded.
“Yes, I confirmed it myself in Vale,” he continued, quashing the notion that her ears were playing tricks on her. But that was news to her, and she was elated, of course, but she was more worried.
For she lived with Rhaenyra and her brother, Gwayne. And thinking of them as parents, well, ...

And it had all begun from right here, as he stood outside the burning building of Wayne Tower. Two hours ago, he had received a warning from an unknown source from Wayne Enterprises of an impending ...

The whole clearing was in drop silence as the Sword of The East, Watashi Masamune, fell to the ground with a thud, his chest unmoving as the ground around him was dyed red, his blood dying the glass in deep scarlet.
His whole body was weak, drops of blood dripping down the hilt of his blade, his breaths labored as he himself collapsed, falling down on one knee, his sword clattering on the ground, as he huffed as...

He was regarded as one of the best samurai in the whole continent, and tho...

Her chakra rippled through the room, its sheer force and density a massive surprise as the very lights in the apartment began to flicker as the Kushina stared at her.
“Because you are not the last of the Uzumaki,” she told the redhead, who stilled at those words, her eyes widening as her face went through a mirage o...

The fall of Uzushio had taken her by surprise, and, with that, had begun a continent-wide hunt for all the remaining Uzumaki; they had been hunted down one by one by the three Shinobi villages of Iwa, Kumo, and Kiri.
