MK3 Miscellaneous

It was the 6pm rush hour, and many Rethans were running around trying to get home, or get to get to work to start their shift. But in a small, quiet cafe, four Ksa sat peacefully, watching the world go by. Their 12 hour shifts had finally finished. They all had sugar-free drinks, with a … Read more

Teekay rolled his eyes as someone knocked on the door behind him. He’d been moving boxes around on behalf of the Vice General all evening and wasn’t in the mood to speak to anyone. “Yes? What do you want? Can’t you see I’m busy?” “Do you have a moment to talk, Teekay?” Immediately, Teekay realised … Read more

Nine Threan-type Rethans sat at wooden, unfurnished desks, each with a small, wooden stool, in a hall made mostly of concrete. There was little decoration to the room, apart from a handful of weapon stands. Two of the seats in the room though were currently unoccupied. At the front of the hall, a wooden door … Read more

“You ever feel like we’re treated like slaves?” Teekay glanced up from the book he was reading. The other handful of Ksa, all spending some time relaxing after a hard day’s work, did the same. “Pardon, Veekay?” Veekay hesitated for a moment. He’d been sitting at his desk, reading about the Kalsa Warriors of Kolasi … Read more

“They are going to kill me, medic!” Deyar cowered in the corner, terrified of everything going on around him. He was having a panic attack, and the medic in the room was trying her best to keep him calm. “I don’t want to go in there!” “Deyar, you know they are fellow Rethans, they would … Read more

“I want to know about you.” Aziten pushed his uneaten steak across his plate, ignoring the Threan sitting opposite him. After a few huffs and puffs, he finally looked up. “Why do you want to know about me, kid?” Arkay shrugged. He’d finished his dinner ages ago but had remained at the table to keep … Read more

“My, my, how you have let Death affect you, little children…” Every Deitic in the large, lush, palatial room froze. At the entrance of the Great Hall of the Anexartitai stood a towering monster, its face clad in a mask of gold, with tattered antlers growing out of its head. The collection of Deitics, ranging … Read more

“So I have Death visiting me while I’m awake and now you’re visiting me in my dreams?” Your mind wanders. Your mind seeks. She is inbuilt into you. “Of course Death is. She brings us to life then kills us and reincarnates us. Unless you’re unlucky. What are you doing here in my dreams?” Like … Read more

Patient: I wish to talk. Medic: You haven’t spoken to us about anything in three years. Patient: I know. I know. The Light. The Shadow. The things are different now. I know better. Medic: Very well. Lay down, please. Patient: I wish to sit. Medic: Then sit. Talk when you’re ready. Patient: I… I lose … Read more

Teekay sat impatiently in the waiting room, twiddling his sharp, clawed thumbs. Every moment spent waiting here was time Teekay should have been spending with the Vice General. That was his job, to defend the second most powerful Rethan alive with, well, his own life. Yet here Teekay was, waiting impatiently in a hospital goodness … Read more

“He’s breathing. Stable pulse. A bit low but definitely stable…” “What happened?” “We’re looking into it now.” Kaldoran held a thermometer strip against the Threan-type’s forehead. His skin temperature was a bit warm, but nothing too out of the ordinary. He placed a second strip on their tongue. This result was much more worrying. A … Read more

Aybee-en slapped Zitel round the head, hissing for him to shut up, as the younger Ksa approached. “Ahem, hello kid, what do you want?” “You two were whispering about me.” Zitel lowered his head, seeing who it was. “Uh, no, no we weren’t.” Arkay tutted, then pulled up a chair and sat down next to … Read more

Jaydee tutted as he flicked between the channels on the entertainment system, not sure what he wanted to do with himself. He’d been in the Exemption Bay for a year and a half, and he still felt he hadn’t quite settled in yet. The D-Class Ksa’s internal thoughts were interrupted by the sound of someone … Read more

“Are you sure the others do not mind me staying here?” Gath asked for the third time as he dumped all his belongings on the floor. Retvik smiled as he closed the door behind him, before nearly tripping up on one of Gath’s bags. “I told you already, it is fine. Absolutely and utterly fine. … Read more
