It was a bitter pill, acknowledging that I wouldn’t be able to keep the terrible truth from Renji. I had tried, I had put on an act with a level of control over my body that many would consider completely inhuman. Renji, being Renji, had seen through it instantly.
There was pride too. Pride that I had created something as special as Renji, for I hadn’t expected him to come so far. In only a few weeks Renji had gone from an unquestioning pawn hy...

The beasts had been put to sleep. A specially created sedative formed straight into their bloodstream rendering them comatose until I administer the counteragent. As much as I appreciated the uncomplicated love they provided, I needed time to think.
So I dedicated a background program -my recent unconscious episode had revealed much of my own inner workings- to reviving and transporting the rest of the dog-like war forms to somewhere safe that they...

“Once the data compiles and uploads you should have everything my systems were able to capture,” Colin said, still just as brusque and to the point as his Ward days. At any other time Legend may have asked Colin how he was doing – asked whether he had made any new friends or if he was still stubbornly insistent on remaining professional in his day to day life.

My eyes remain locked upon the explosion. The light was no impediment to me, though it would have liquified the eyes of any who viewed it too closely. It was not just my sight that was unobstructed, my senses could also parse the explosion and what lay within.
To me, the world was a sea of molecules and atoms. A reality made of building blocks upon building blocks, going so far down that even I could only grasp the barest glimpse of what lay below ...

Taylor walked, shoulders sagging from both the weight of her troubles and her school backpack. She had taken to carrying everything in it after the bullying started, if she didn’t she would only find things missing.

Ben groaned, the movement making his chained hands flare in pain. The cuffs were so tight around his wrists they threatened to rub his skin raw.

Their equipment had been on the fritz the moment they began falling, and eventually began insisting that their position was deep underground....

Life went on after the attack from C.U.I forces, people were gradually becoming used to their accommodations while my paragons invested all their effort into the city. A more prepared attack was likely inevitable so Taizong had ordered the outer districts of the city to be fortified in preparation.
I personally thought it would take many more attacks before a method of breaching into the city was devised, but I guess it was good to start early.

The tea swirled gently in his cup, the small spoon being used to stir the brew was held delicately in his hand. The milk quietly dispersed and muddled with the surrounding liquid, transforming the dark brown tea into a lighter blend. Taizong sipped the tea, the table in front of him covered in maps and reports.
The city of Chizhou was marked in red. The city was one of the C.U.I’s ‘re-education camps’, to any who could read the careful subtext ...

-Within the Tunnels of Alexander (wait that sounds lewd)-
Within the tunnels forged with a singular will and vision there was darkness. This area of the tunnels was hundreds of miles away from the miniature star that Alexander had wrought with magic beyond mortal means. There was only the occasional click and chirp of insectoid drones languidly roaming the depths, ordered to repair any damages that may occur by their absentee creator.

One day. He had left the capital for one day!
The smouldering wreckage surrounding him stunk of ash and fear, the huddling masses stared at his procession from broken windows and doors.

As he looked around he saw all of the work he had put into hi...

Taizong and the rest of his ‘advisors’ had set up in one of the many empty buildings I had constructed. The room was large, almost forebodingly so, and in the center was a circular table big enough to fit almost all of us.
I say almost because I was there.
Due to my bulk I was forced to take to the corner of the room, ominously overlooking the sitting participants.
It was awkward. Hopefully no one talked to me.

It had been three days since I started and finally the last of the buildings rose upwards, finally settling with an almost anticlimactic thunk.
This would be the third time I had ‘finished’ the city.

Hence I would often finish constr...

Ben was never one to take himself too seriously.
Heck, it was practically in his name! He had chosen Chubster as his hero identity precisely because he didn’t want to get a big head. He also thought the PRT could use some humour after the death of Vikare and Hero. Those were some grim times.
