Adventures in the Space Between Universes
“The fastest ship in the sector…” Tenuk couldn’t help but admire the beauty of a ship standing in front of him. He had never really been hugely interested in space craft, but this elegant, sleek design, it was simply gorgeous. And painted black, having come straight from the Skyan military. Or K-Class, as they called … Read more
“So, you finally got your name changed…” Kayel sat up straight to see who was talking to him. “Teekay? What are you doing here? Shouldn’t you be-” Teekay wagged a finger. Unlike most Skyavok, Teekay had rather pale skin and bright orange armour. But like Kayel, he was a former Phantasma. And Kayel’s former captain. … Read more
Amazingly, no one had died. Sure, a small ship had just crashed into Zero Zero, the large park in the middle of the Skyan capital of End One, but it was early in the morning so no one had really been around on the ground. The same couldn’t be said about the occupants of said … Read more
“Oh thank the gods, there is actually a ship here!” Tenuk, Kayel and Retvik all stared at Nyssi as they finally reached the top of the staircase. “What?” “I think we all know only one god is responsible for that ship being here…” Retvik tutted. “I never thought I’d be thanking the Thantophor!” Nyssi was … Read more
“Oh I don’t like that…” “No, I don’t like that shaking feeling either. We need to move. Faster.” Tenuk was trailing behind Kayel. Normally, if he planned on doing lots of running, he would shape-shift into something with longer legs. But thanks to the horrible gases in these horrible labs, Tenuk’s body just wasn’t properly … Read more
“Hello, Arkadin.” Arkay blinked several times, trying to work out where he was. From the smell of the air, he could tell that he was inside a metal ship, having been abruptly torn from his fledgling universe, the one he and his siblings were in the middle of building. “Hello…” “I have some questions for … Read more
“You are very attractive and the primal part of my brain wants to have intercourse with you… I cannot believe i just said that out loud…” Arkay stared at the delirious Rethavok as he helped him off the ground, then sighed. “I appreciate the kind words, Retvik, but that’s not you talking, that’s the gas. … Read more
Tenuk opened his eyes, only to be assaulted by the colour pink. Not a nice, calming pink, the hard, grotesque pink of toxic flesh. The air stank of weird pheromones, and the first thing Tenuk could think of was that he was vaguely horny. However, that emotion was quickly replaced with a wave of terror … Read more
“Ey, Retvik! Welcome home!” It had been weird, having three strangers in his home, but Retvik had very quickly gotten used to the presence of Kayel, the Skyan he had essentially adopted. He still wasn’t so sure about Nyssi and Tenuk, but that was mostly because they were very different beings. Nyssi was erratic and … Read more
“Hey, Sini, you said you had news about… What are you two doing here?” Arkay stood in the doorway, holding a bloodied shovel. He had just finished burying a field of recently dead soldiers when he got Sini’s message to meet her at her southernmost lab. He assumed it was important, so he had rushed … Read more
“That battle was so cool! I never thought I’d be friends with a dude who literally choked a Thragger to death!” Nyssi had been beaming with joy, ever since she’d watched the previous day’s gladiator battles on television. It had been a whole day of various fighters taking on and murdering various local wildlife, mostly … Read more
Retvik closed his eyes as he flicked a small medallion between his fingers. It was his lucky charm, a small engraving of the symbol of the Panelix, embedded in an old slice of battered metal, made for him a long time ago. Normally, Retvik felt like he didn’t need luck, he relied on his own … Read more
It took a while for anyone to speak as they all climbed into Nyssi’s car. Nyssi sat in the driver’s seat, with Retvik sat next to her and Tenuk and Kayel in the back. Tenuk muttered something about feeling like a child, but no one paid attention. “So, uh, Kayel, how does it feel, knowing … Read more
“If this address is correct, I will eat a scarf…” Retvik cursed as he, Nyssi, Tenuk and Kayel all stepped out of Nyssi’s truck, onto an empty, muddy patch of land that served as a small car park. There were several other vehicles all parked nearby, most of which were small Skyan hover-crafts. Across the … Read more
“Ah, you have both returned. Please, come and sit down.” As Tenuk and Kayel entered the large home, they both noticed just how… threatening Retvik seemed. Maybe it was because he was still wearing (some admittedly rather tattered) armour from his arena battle, but he didn’t appear to be in a good mood. Or maybe … Read more
