Adventures in the Space Between Universes
Arkay Psiksi tried to remain calm as he tidied up around the large, Rethan home, picking up everything from torn cushions to shredded clothing to pieces of wood. Most of the house was open-plan except for the upper bedroom level that overlooked the main living area. The homeowner was currently somewhat quiet, but that probably wouldn’t … Read more
Yisini smiled to herself as she sneaked up on her little brother, Arkadin. He knew Yisini was there, but Arkadin was pretending to ignore her. He was waiting until Yisini got really close, until Yisini was almost breathing down his back. “Hi, sis.” The Allbirther leaped back in shock. “HOW DID YOU KNOW? HOW DID … Read more
“Good morning, Retvik Rethianos. Welcome to your orientation meeting.” Retvik’s eyes snapped open as he was rudely awoken from his sleep. He was strapped to a chair, sitting in a bright, white room. Strangely, Retvik could see his breath, condensing then on the glass window in front of him, making Retvik realise how… cold he … Read more
“Good day, General Gath Tsoriou, how are you doing?” Rethais spoke calmly and slowly down the microphone of his communicator. He had been in the hospital all morning, mainly there as a sign of leadership and support to those injured in… recent events, but also to help facilitate in the removal of his brother to … Read more
Captain Relkai didn’t expect to suddenly find himself in a hospital in the Rethan capital. Seven 100th Legion soldiers had intersected him on his way home after he finished his work shift, picked him up, bundled him into the back of a transport vehicle and zipped him away without any much warning. They then dumped … Read more
It had been a while since Retvik was… of sane mind, at least sane enough to begin to piece together what had happened. None of it was good. His arm plating was basically gone. His tail was ruined. Pieces of his armour were burnt and singed and flaking off. And standing at the end of … Read more
“Hiii!” Kairos didn’t expect Phovos to be in such a good mood today, especially compared to Kairos himself. He was feeling a bit miffed about sibling things and knew Phovos often had the same issues. He also didn’t expect Phovos to be holding a large brown paper bag in her hands. “Hi, Phovos, how are … Read more
Most of the anti-fire systems had cleared out the larger parts of the hospital, but this room in particular was having trouble. Mainly because the source of the fire was still here, rampaging around, panicking, not sure what he was doing. There was not much the mortals could do, but Arkadin was there to stop … Read more
“You look glum. Less glum than when you’re in one of your moods but more glum than when you’re not in one of your moods. What’s wrong?” Arkadin had been sitting on the roof of this Rethan hospital for a few hours now, watching as the injured moved in and the dead moved out. Behind … Read more
Gath took a deep breath as the two little Skyavok knocked on the door, bearing gifts. His parents had always told him to be weary of Skyavok bearing gifts, but thankfully Gath did recognize these two Skyavok. They were Psiksi and Kass, one of Retvik’s friends and his partner. “What are you doing here?” Gath … Read more
Mastakon had no idea how many were dead. All he knew was that he was to blame. The rest of society didn’t know yet, but they didn’t have to know. As far as everyone else was concerned, this was a freak incident, a sudden solar flare that had caused massive electronic issues across large parts … Read more
“You are so damn lucky that I like you…” Retvik was pretty certain he wasn’t dead. He couldn’t feel his arms, legs or tail, he hurt all over and he stank of burning plastic and scorched flesh, but he had been hearing voices for a while. He certainly felt like he was nearly dead, but … Read more
In a mere moment, Retvik’s situation had gone from perfectly fine to utterly catastrophic. The satellite has been knocked from orbit, the ship had been disconnected from the satellite, everything was shaking violently and there was no power what so ever. Breathable air levels were dropping, the space shuttle was spinning wildly as it was … Read more
Retvik felt unreasonably worried. Not because everything had gone wrong so far, but because everything had gone right. Every single thing, from major planning to tiny, almost insignificant things, had been perfect. Everything. It was almost… unnatural how well everything had gone so far. Even now that Retvik was floating in orbit, in a tiny … Read more
“Don’t do this.” The appearance of a bright yellow Rethavok-like in the middle of the secret control room was strange, but no one seemed to really be reacting to it. Almost if teleporting Rethan ghosts were only uncommon, here in the 9th Legion bunker. “Arkadin, why are you here?” Retvik asked. Unlike the majority of … Read more
