Ruined Birthday Aftermath

The Raptor had raced back to Retvik’s villa as fast as she possibly could, and she’d brought some of her guards with her. But as she reached the front door and was let in, Phovos realized she didn’t really need to. “Hello, Queen!” Talok clicked. The little Vohra seemed chirpy on the outside but she … Read more

Broken Father

“Son?” Tenuk had been woken up by the sound of a door opening and soft, fluffy footsteps. Slowly approaching the massive, cozy, self-heated bed was the last person Tenuk wanted to see. Fear though petrified Tenuk, making him unable to move as Ahvra, the Lord King of the Spasts, came closer, whispering, weeping. “Tanos, is … Read more

Battered and Bruised

Retvik gasped for breath as he suddenly woke up in his bed, his head spinning and nausea in his throat. Something… something had happened. Retvik hadn’t gone to bed. It was 2pm. Far too early for bed. The memories slowly trickled back. It was his birthday party. He had friends round. Kuta was there. So … Read more

Birthday Mess

Phovos didn’t know what to expect as she knocked on the front door to the large, fancy villa. The only indication that she was in the right place was a single red balloon tied to the lamp post in front of the house, next to a red and gold Rethan bicycle. However, as the door … Read more

Triumphant Crown

“Dude.” “What?” “Dude!” “What?” “DUDE!” Retvik snapped to attention, realizing he was in a bed. Standing over him were some familiar faces. Immediately, something blue and fluffy forced its way into Retvik’s arms. This was followed by far too many people trying to hug him, and a shower of confetti. “Dude, you fucking did it!” … Read more

Fight of a Lifetime

The sun had just set, and the audience was eerily quiet as the two gladiators stepped into the main arena. Retvik’s footsteps were almost silent compared to the heavy crunches of Telumeus and his mechanical suit, but both of them were wrapped up in heavy armour, both of them were armed and ready for the … Read more

Preparing for Battle

Telumeus sighed to himself as he watched the final touches being added to his mech by his team of technicians and assistants. His MK9 mech wasn’t ready yet, it didn’t have all the features he wanted, so he’d been forced to use his MK8 mech again. That wasn’t too bad, the MK8 model was perfectly … Read more

Into Temptation

“Oh hey, you’re a cat again!” Kayel smiled as he let himself in, immediately took off all his clothes and threw them into the washing machine. Kayel blatantly didn’t care that he’d just stripped off in front of the God of Death, he was hot, sexy, young-ish and had been trying to sleep with the … Read more

Challenge Signed

It had been a while since Retvik had visited the Certification Chamber, a fancy building where contracts and things were signed. The chamber was designed to be luxurious since most of its visitors were there for political purposes, ironing out the terms and conditions for arena battles to settle disputes rather than going to war. … Read more

Taking Out The Trash

Retvik smiled to himself as he chucked a bag of rubbish into the large, metal skip, then dusted off his hands, raising the ambient temperature around them to kill off any bacteria. He’d had a nice time, but the wedding and the party and all that were now over, most people had gone home and … Read more

Strange New Friends

“So, what the fuck are you doing here on Portalia?” Thassalin shifted awkwardly on his seat. He was a Thraki, he wasn’t used to sitting on chairs. At least, not Temthan chairs. While Temthans did vary greatly in height and size, they were all upright beings and they all had long lizard tails, so their … Read more

Battered Pink Thraki

Nyssi had planned to go to the Torn Islet on her own, to check in with her cousins and help them move into new accommodation, but since Retvik didn’t have any plans and had been pacing around being anxious, she’d decided to bring him with her. Not only did Retvik need some distractions, but he’d … Read more

After-Party Drunken Chats

“There are so, so many drunk people here!” Telecharm grinned as he and Eksi sat down around the large camp fire, both with satisfied looks on their faces. “Or I am seeing double. I don’t know.” “Actually, I think a lot of people have already left. At least, the dastardly Void Lords are already gone…” … Read more

Challenge Accepted

Retvik rubbed his eyes as he sat up and looked at his communicator, which, for some reason, was ringing. Ringing, but not with a number Retvik was familiar with. Rethan phone numbers were particularly long and consisted of their ID numbers randomly scrambled, an area code and a planet code, plus an extra status code. … Read more

A Humble Ceremony

Elkay shuddered briefly as he made his way down the stairs, towards where everyone was sitting, watching and wating. By his side was his brother Retvik, who had kindly offered to walk him down the aisle. In front of them was Tahvra, the adorable little Vohra who had taken the role of ‘Sparkler’, and was … Read more
