Wish upon the Stars chapter 109

We didn't find anything on our list when we searched the cloaked  guys, and when we set off their beacons they all got picked up quick as  could be, so we headed back to the hatchery with our spoils. Spoils  which included the Humminbird Blossoms and a fairly rare golden pear  called a Calamity Fruit, that was at the very least worth money. The  thing looked delicious too, but I was warned against eating it by my  girlfriend.

She plucked it out of my hand w...

Today  was the day. Wait, no, that sounded stupid. Who even talked like that?  Regardless, it was party time. Or it would be in a few hours. It was the  thirty first, which meant it was officially time for the big event.  Which is why I was meeting Zee at her place with my crew. I'd brought  Bonebreaker, Cherry, Waylon, and after quite a bit of waffling, Barbie.  My redhead had been there when Drench ha...

Wish upon the Stars chapter 108

This was starting to feel depressingly familiar. Still, eight wasn't  too bad. I noted there was two less than the group standard of ten or  below, presumably those two Jessie were following were scouts or  something. What an annoying bunch. Still, it was surprising they'd  stayed hidden from Callie. Granted they were far enough away to make  hiding easier, but still, the idea that all of these people had higher  Perception than my girlfriends one hundred fifty p...

We  headed up to the roof, leaving Morana and mom to play with Hana. I  admit to being slightly nervous. I'd gotten much stronger since I met  Gojo, but regardless of who I'd run into so far, his aura was  always...next level. It was like looking into the heart of a black hole,  just raw, endless power. It was profound in a way I'd never seen from  anyone else. Qualitatively different, as well as q...

I tried to trade him for his service for the rest of the hunt first  thing, but unfortunately it wasn't enough. In the end he traded me  another two points of Might. I was happy enough with it, I had gotten  some Might from taking down Aiden, and I suspected Tony had too, but  Might was a key stat in so many of skills and abilities, and that made  it an important part of my Wish power, not to mention my DS Mastery.  Once it was done Cark ran off to find and check...

"So  this magic super bar is in Gotham?" Because I felt like I'd have heard  of the Oblivion Bar if it was around here. I may not have lived in  Gotham most of my life but I spent tons of time here. Then again I  doubted most people in New York knew about Midnite's so maybe expecting  to know all about obscure magical shit was unrealistic. For all I knew  there was a magic barber shop under Gotham Stati...

Wish upon the Stars chapter 106

The next day found my team all up on the top floor of the hatchery  meeting with Jessie. She'd taken the rest of the night off to spend time  with Cassidy and eat and generally just relax a bit. The siege had been  hard on everyone and it seemed like the right call to just relax a bit.  I'd spent the evening with Callie, just talking, telling her how I was  feeling about everything and then once I was fed up with babbling just  sitting together and watching the s...

I  wasn't sore when I finally woke up. I'd slept the night, which was  plenty of time to recover. When I finally got up though I was alone, so I  went looking for the others. Zee and Dreamer were with Morana and Jim  in the map room. They lit up when they saw me, Zee running to me and  leaping into my arms with a laugh. "Well hey there sleepy head. We were  beginning to think you were going to nap...

Wish upon the Stars chapter 105

Cark brought his sister over to say hello after their reunion. The  kid was hands down the most outgoing child I'd ever seen in my life.  After such a crazy ordeal I expected her to be reserved or timid, I know  I would have been, but Cassidy was grinning ear to ear and chattering  away as they came within range. Cark had a big smile on his face despite  the constant eye rolling and groans of annoyance at the nonstop  talking.

When she came within range of ...

I  was jarred out of reading by the sound of a frustrated shriek and a  book hitting the wall of Zee's library. The sorceress and I were poring  over books with a map Strega had given me of the ritual sites in town,  twying to figure out what the hell "Doctor Gotham", was planning to  actually DO. So far, we'd been comparing ritual circles and spell  diagrams to the map trying to figure out what symbols...

Wish upon the Stars chapter 104

It took about twenty minutes for Zeke to call me back, and we didn't  talk much until he did, just kind of sat together. I picked up  immediately and he gave me an amiable grin. "Mission accomplished. Got  the kid with me, she wasn't fully under yet, which is a good thing, but  it means she's fire spitting mad. Though not literally thankfully, she  hasn't Ascended yet if she's going to, but then she's about nine and  that's early as hell. We're on the shuttle on ...

The  ridiculous mustachiod weirdo fighting my girls was...shockingly tough. I  didn't jump right in, since I wanted to know what I was getting into  and my girls could take care of themselves. Zee was going full battle  goddess, hurling purple lightning and an endless string of spells from a  distance while Dreamer got in close and was hammering away at the  distracted biker guy. Despite all...

Wish upon the Stars chapter 103

I wasn't the only one shocked by the offer, and someone must have  gasped because Aiden laughed mockingly at all of us. "Oh come on. It's  not that complicated. If you idiots can't figure out why I want a quick  death I really shouldn't bother telling you anything. No point sharing  if you're too stupid to use the information I give you." His tone was  way too relax and amused for someone who asked us to kill him, but then  again he obviously wasn't playing with ...

It  was getting inconvenient how magic users blacked out when I came inside  them. Like, in terms of fun factor watching some crazy magic bitch  orgasm her brains out on my dick was a blast and felt great, but  practically given my location I ended up having to carry Strega to my  car and dump her in the back. I made a mental note to upgrade this car,  preferably with some stain resistance...

Jessie and Grimmengap made it down in record time, and the first thing  my blonde teammate did was heal me. I needed it, I'd been so out of it I missed the notifications for the points I got for the win, though I made a note to check them later on . A quick laying on of hands and a  minute or two of concentrated life energy took care of the cuts, but it  took almost a half hour of consistent healing to fix the cracked bones.  Once it was done I was not only feeling no pain...

I  hit Metallo first. Obviously. Lex's bullshit armor would be annoying,  but whatever the fuck he did to the former cyborg was clearly the bigger  threat. I felt the thrum of joy and violence pulsing through me as I  pushed the armor forward. Magic, ghost powers, summoning, they were all  fun and it was a blast to see them at work, but there was just no  beating the raw physicality of direc...

Wish upon the Stars chapter 101

Callie had given us each our moves to start out, and the first up was  Cark. A huge wall of blue flame leapt up between Aiden and us, limiting  his access to us. With the trees still keeping vigil to prevent him  from leaving he was penned in. He strode forward purposefully, and Mr.  Gray faded out of existence as his boss passed. Cark, Callie, Cold Snap,  and Benny were all on primary for the fight with Aiden, but my job was  to take care of the stealth attacked...

I  tried to get my hooks in deeper with Strega as I followed her back, but  while I could do some basic monkeying with her desires she seemed to  have some natural resistance to deeper changes. Which put me in a bit of  a pickle, because aside from adding in a bit of extra interest in me,  it meant I couldn't tamp down on her desires at all only build them up,  and her particular kink wasn't usuall...

Wish upon the Stars chapter 100

I had to point out the obvious as we looked around the mostly empty  clearing (at least if you didn't count the unconscious bodies of the  sleepers) "So...thematically I feel like the wings aren't really  suitable for the whole murder cultist image. Does this seem jarring to  anyone else?" I looked around, seeing Cold Snap raise his hand until  Benny smacked him in the back of the head. The...semi-reformed cult  mercenary? Glared at my friend and rubbed his head ...

Luthor  didn't seem amused by my commentary. In fact, Luthor didn't seem amused  at all. He looked actively pissed off. That probably should have been  scarier with him standing there in big strong armor, but honestly it  mostly just made me want to laugh. He gritted his teeth. "Who are you?" I  raised an eyebrow at that, because I'd expected better. This was Lex  fucking Luthor, he should b...

Wish upon the Stars chapter 99

The fight had gone a completely different direction at this point.  Granted I'd tapped our quite a bit of my resources and broken some ribs,  but two to five odds weren't that bad. The Prophet was mainly avoiding  any engagement directly, trying to let his minions soak the damage as he  looked for a way out. He'd hit the tree line and been pushed back by  lashing roots and branches in the mist multiple times, but he was  looking for any way to get through.

It  took Jade all day to track down Strega. Apparently the evil red clad  serial murderess was more subtle about what she did than how she  dressed. Eventually though, I got directed to a bar in New York. Luckily  Gotham was pretty close, so I was able to make the drive in just an  hour or so, and I finally arrived at Papa Midnite's clubs at around  eight PM. As I pulled up outside I made sure my m...

Wish upon the Stars chapter 98

Sucking Mud was a solid and effective skill to use on a group. They  started sinking, and of course the puppet master had them scatter to  avoid the suction. of course, given the fog muffling their senses, he  also almost immediately lost track of where they all were as they left  the range of each other's Perception. I grinned to myself. I'd known he  would make them scatter, and since he used their own senses instead of  some overarching map, the fog actually p...

I  was beginning to get tired of this whole 'calm before the storm' powwow  we had every time we were about to attack a fortified position. It felt  so climactic, always made me worry once of us would get killed or  something. I had wracked my brain on how to make sure the vibe was a bit  more relaxed, and as I looked around at all my friends I nodded  solemnly to myself and then pulled a bi...

Wish upon the Stars chapter 97

As I stared at the traps I considered exactly how they worked. I'd  wanted to try to soften up the ones that were coming in, but I didn't  want to kill them. The poison from Touch of Tears would work pretty well  for that. It was way too dangerous to use on someone of lower rank  based on what I'd seen, even if I didn't take add the fire damage from  Consecration of Flame. But I had a way to change that.

I  knelt behind a tree I was using for cover and reac...

Zee  was so jittery from the supercharged cum I'd dumped up her ass she was  twitching like a junkie on a caffeine high, and as much fun as the sex  was, I didn't feel like listening to her jittery, too fast voice change  topics three times a sentence. I made a mental note that apparently  taking magic cum up the ass made people like Zee lose it. I guessed it  was like the Homo Magi version of but...

Benny had to head back down to check on the prisoners, so Callie  finished up the last few wishes. Same as Benny she contractually  obligated herself to the role she'd been planning to take anyway, but  she took it one step further, and also paid for a wish with the promise  of her best possible skills being used in the battle. I wasn't sure it  would work, but it did, and not she had a geas keeping her at peak  efficiency for the duration of the fight. I could t...

This  place wasn't as nice as the other park I took Dreamer to. I'd heard  some big goofy guy ranting about it at a burger place I went to, and had  decided to check it out as a fun day, but it was kind of run down.  However, that didn't stop us from going, or stop our daughter from  deciding to tag along, completely ignoring all mentions of dates and  proclaiming this 'family fun day'. Zee had fi...

New tier for WUTS fans!

Hi all, added a new tier for readers of my OG novel. Patrons can design a minor character (with some reasonable restrictions) and pick an ability an backstory for them. Excited to see what any of my upcoming patrons come up with and I'll be in touch directly with any patrons who sign up.

Since Celine was helping Jessie, Cark was patrolling the clearing,  and Martin and Sarah were tagging along with their boss, Benny, Callie,  and I were completely alone when we got to the top floor. We'd put the  strap guy and all the H outside, and Benny was keeping them doped until  after the fight, when we could hopefully come up with something to free  them, once there was no one to trigger them or blow up their heads out  of spite.

Luckily with enough ...
