"why did you say goodnight when you meant to say was goodbye?"

in which a girl says her final last words.


lowercase intended.

Alynna's steps were heavy.  She looked at Stella who was happily skip-hopping beside her as she held her hand.  Stella let go of her mother's hand and ran all the way upstairs.  She waited at the top of the stairs with her hands on her waist, as if she had done something triumphant.  She couldn't wait for her mother to get there so she could try to beat her to the bedroom again.

Alynna looked back to where the kitchen was, where Josh was.  She half-heartedly wished he would be behind her, following them upstairs but she knew he wouldn't be.  She looked at Stella who was now wriggling her hips, waiting excitedly for her mother.  Alynna slowly climbed the stairs.

As soon as Alynna got to the top of the stairs, Stella ran again as she had planned, beating her mother to the bedroom.  She went to the bathroom and turned on the shower.  Alynna quickly followed Stella and turned off the shower.

"No, dear, not like that.  The water's too cold.  Here, let me do it."  Alynna adjusted the temperature from the water heater.  She tested the water and when she thought it was okay, she called Stella and bathed her.

Stella loved showering at night. It was her favorite bedtime routine.  Cleaning up and brushing her teeth meant a story would follow afterwards.  She giggled at the bubbles foaming at her hair.  And when Alynna turned on the shower, she excitedly watched the bubbles gather at her feet before going down the drain.

Alynna toweled Stella dry.  She then brushed Stella's hair. 

"How time flies." She thought.  "Has it been three years?"

Stella brushed her teeth while Alynna prepared to shower herself.  She went in the shower and turned it on.  The warm water touched her bare skin.  She imagined all the dirt flowing down the drain, off her skin.  She looked at her body.  She saw some bruises and inspected them.  She always tried to remember how many bruises were on her body every time she showered.

"Alynna," Josh called from outside the bedroom.

"Yeah?" Shouted Alynna from the bathroom. "Wait, I'm almost done." She quickly soaped her body and shampooed her hair without turning off the shower.  Then she dried herself and put a robe on.

Josh was standing outside the bedroom with Stella when Alynna got out of the shower.

Josh thought she looked beautiful, her cheeks flushed from the bathing. Embarrassed, he quickly looked away.

"I was just gonna say the dishes are in the washer, and I'm done with the rest.  Would you like me to do anything else?" Josh said as he stroked Stella's damp hair.

"No, it's okay.  You can rest now.  I know how tired you are from working all day." 

"I'll rest as soon as I'm done with the dishes." He glanced at her, ever so quickly and then went down back to the kitchen.

Alynna put on her night gown and began blow drying her hair.  After that, she tucked Stella in and read her a story.  

Stella loved bedtime stories.  She would choose three books for her mother to read to her but sometimes, when her mother is too tired, they would only read one story and then it's sleeping time.

"Just one story for tonight, okay?" Alynna said as she picked the shortest story from Stella's choices of books for the night.

"Can it be two books, Mommy?" Stella asked, hopeful her mom would agree.

"Sorry, honey, not tonight. Tomorrow, okay?" Alynna smiled. She hated declining Stella's requests but for tonight she had to.  She and Josh needed to talk.

Alynna opened the book and started reading to Stella. The book was about a girl waiting for her mother to pick her up from school.  Her mother was late in picking her up and the girl started imagining all sorts of things that happened to her mother, like she was taken by eagles or snatched by dinosaurs.  Or maybe her mom road a turtle on the way to school because their car broke down.  But in the end, the mom finally came and when the girl asked why she was late, her mom told her that the car ran out of gasoline and she had to take a cab.

Stella loved that story.  She can't wait to go to school. And she would always make Alynna promise that she would never be late in picking her up from school. And Alynna would always promise that she would be there before class is dismissed.  Stella would smile and then go to sleep peacefully.

Alynna kissed Stella's forehead and tucked her in.  She turned off the lights but Stella's scared of the dark so she left her unicorn nightlight on.  She slowly walked out of the room and softly closed the door.

Alynna walked down the stairs and saw Josh putting the clean dishes in the cabinet.  Josh looked tired.  He turned around when he heard Alynna walk in the kitchen.

"I thought you're already sleeping?" Josh asked as he wiped a plate dry and placed it in the cabinet.

"Can we talk?"

"Is Stella asleep?" Josh asked again, purposely ignoring what Alynna last said.

"Yes, she is.  Can we talk?"

Josh took a deep breath and let the air out through his nose. It looks like he won't be able to dodge Alynna tonight.

"What is it? What's on your mind?" Josh said as he turned towards Alynna.  He saw that she was already wearing her nightgown, her frail body silhouetted underneath the thin fabric.  Her long wavy hair gathered on one side of her shoulders. She lost a lot of weight since the accident but her beauty is still evident.

"I just want to talk about us, Josh."

"What about us?"

"I mean, where are we headed?"

"I don't think it's the right time to talk about that, Alynna."

"When is the right time, Josh? Tell me.  And I will wait until then."  Alynna pulled out a chair from the dining table and sat down. Josh knelt in front of her, his hands on her knees.

"When you're okay. When the doctor says you've fully recovered, then we can talk about anything you want."

Alynna eyed Josh, studying him. She hurt so much she wanted to cry but Josh hated seeing her cry and would reprimand her saying she should be strong — not only for herself but for Stella.

She wanted to tell Josh how much she longed for him but Josh became emotionally distant since the accident.  He was physically with them but his soul is somewhere else.

"Do you love me, Josh?" Alynna boldly asked.

"Of course I do. I love you and Stella."

"I didn't ask you if you love me and Stella.  I asked you if you love me, Josh. ME."

"Frankly, I wish you would just stop asking me that constantly." Josh stood up. "I'm here with you and with Stella.  If that doesn't make you think that I love you, then I really don't think I can say or do anything that would convince you.  I'm here and that's what's important, right?"

"If you say so, Josh. If you say so, then I believe you." Alynna slowly stood from that chair.  She bit her tongue to keep herself from saying anything she might regret later.  She was about to walk away but Josh hugged her. 

"Please stop worrying yourself.  It's not doing any good for you." Josh said as he let go of Alynna.

Alynna nodded, though deep inside her, she disagreed. 

"Goodnight, Josh." Alynna kissed Josh on the cheek.

"Have a restful sleep, Alynna." Josh said as he watched Alynna walk out of the kitchen, going back to the bedroom.  He then continued putting the dishes in the cabinet.  It was so late he thought he would fall asleep before he's finished with his chore.

.  .  .

Josh was laying down now, his arm over his forehead.  He had been so sleepy earlier but was now, lying wide awake as he remembered all the things that happened that day — Meeting Amanda, the confrontation with Lee, the lost documents that were later found, working late with Amanda, Alynna wanting an assurance that he loves her. 

"A lot happened today," Josh thought to himself, "but meeting Amanda was the best."  He smiled at the thought of Amanda.  He couldn't wait to see her at work next morning.  He resolved in going to work early, with the hopes of catching her walking on the street to the office building.  And since he knew where she parks her car, he thought of waiting up for her there.   He thought of what to wear for work.  He thought of a lot of things that are connected to Amanda.  He used to notice the bumps of the couch he slept on but tonight, the couch felt different — he felt different.  Something inside of him lights up every time he remembered Amanda and it made him feel different.  He turned to the side, folded one arm underneath his head and closed his eyes, wishing he would dream about Amanda that night.

Mandy's got it all. Being the lone heiress to a multinational  business, she could take life easy and just wait for her father to give her the key to the company when he retires.  But she doesn't want to take over their business.  She wants to pursue a different path.  But how could she say "no" to her dad?  He wants to prepare her for the work she will do in the future by working undercover in their own company as an Office Assistant.

Mandy tries everything to get out of the company, that is, until she meets two men - one is a fellow low-ranking employee and the other, a director.

Things get complicated when both men try to pursue her.

Will Mandy follow her dad's wishes to take over the business that he built from the ground, up? Will she ever be able to tell people who she really is?  Will Mandy be able to choose between the two men?

I hated my first day of kindergarten. I was wearing what my mom thought was the definition of kindergarten chic...a white dress with neon blue bows at the hemline, which only went to my knees. 

I wanted to wear my usual jeans and a t-shirt with a pun phrase on the cover which back then I only saw as colorful designs. But no, instead my mom got me a whole new wardrobe of frilly dresses and glitzy accessories.

Needless to say, I wasn't happy. I was even unhappier when my mom kissed me goodbye after dropping me off. I didn't care who saw...I wailed. The kindergarten teacher looked distraught as the tears kept on coming. I remember her saying things like, 'We're going to have so much fun!' or 'Do you want to color!' Nothing helped until my mom got down on one knee and pulled me in for a hug.

She whispered, "Don't cry, baby. You look beautiful and you're going to make some amazing friends here." After she broke from the hug, she held my hands in hers. "Who's my fierce firecracker?"

"Me?" I answered weakly. 

"That's right!" she answered enthusiastically before waving good-bye to me again.

Before I could start crying again, my kindergarten teacher placed a box of crayons in my hands and steered me to a table filled with other little girls. There was only one seat left. I sat down and said, "Hello!" 

"Hi cryer" said the most beautiful girl I ever saw. With grey blue eyes and sun kissed blonde hair. 

"My name is Kat," I replied. "I'm not gonna cry anymore."

Another girl at the table with frizzy Brown hair and a smattering of freckles said, "Good, but you should find another table to sit at." I was about to ask her why when she said, "My momma said I'm not supposed to talk with black people."

"I'm not black. I'm American," I answered with unwavering confidence. "My mom isn't from America. She's from Columbus." Back then I didn't know how to say Colombia. Or, my whole first name for that matter.

The girl with frizzy Brown hair said, "Well whatever your name is, get away from us."

I didn't know how to react. I was shocked but still in my seat. Till a boy that was playing with dinosaurs ran too close to our table and knocked me off of my chair. "Watch it!" he yelled at me as he picked up the plastic dinosaurs from the floor.

"I'm sorry," I replied as I handed him a dinosaur. He didn't grab the one I was holding.

"Hmm?" I asked as I waved the plastic dinosaur I was still holding in front of him. He took a step away from me in disgust. "You can keep it. I don't want to catch your cooties."

"What's that?"

"An illness girls can give to boys by touch. It's deadly." That's when I noticed the girls and boys sat separately from each other. So, I knew whatever this boy just told me must be true. 

Which is why I ran to my cubby to look for the thin gloves my mom got me. They were unnecessary in the state of Arizona but my mom still insisted on thin gloves and a sweater just in case. I slipped on my gloves and held the dinosaur once more as I ran to the boy who was so informed about the cooties. 

He was talking with another boy who asked him if he could play with the dinosaurs too. The boy with all of the plastic dinosaurs shook his head. "I don't need you. I'm fine on my own. Now git!"

"Um, hello," I said as I handed the dinosaur to the boy who claimed all of the plastic dinosaurs in our kindergarten class as his. "Here you go." I again, held out the plastic dinosaur with my gloved hands.

The boy looked at my hands cautiously. "You sure that will be enough not to spread the cooties?"

"I think so," I replied. It was good enough for him as he snatched the dinosaur away. 

I was going towards the table with the girls again, when I noticed another girl was in my seat, coloring from the book I was just coloring in. "Aren't you going to go back to your friends?" dinosaur boy asked me. 

"I don't know," I replied. Then, I had an amazing idea. I was going to ask dinosaur boy my question since he seemed more informed about the world than me. "I have a question."

"Shoot." he replied as he sat on the floor and started arranging the plastic dinosaurs in a certain way. Then, he looked up at me from his project. "That means go 'head and ask."

"Do I look black to you?"

He pondered this for a moment before doling out his professional opinion. "No. You look tan. Who said you looked black?"

I pointed at the table where I was sitting. "One of them said she could not talk with me because I'm black." 

"Really....remember who?" he asked me as he arranged his dinosaurs seemingly disinterested in our conversation. 

"That one with frizzy Brown hair," I replied as I gestured a hand to the table again.

"Follow me," he said as he stood up from his dinosaur project. Before he moved completely away he cupped his hands in front of his mouth as he hollered, "I still have dibs on the dinos!!!!!"

I followed him as he made a beeline towards the teacher...until he stopped. He turned to me to say, "Looks like our teacher is still busy. Let's go find the Prince." Our teacher was very busy trying to reassure some clingy-looking parents. He grabbed my hand that still had gloves on them and pulled open the classroom door. Our teacher didn't even notice our departure.

"Is it alright to leave?"

"Sure it is," he replied with a flippant wave of his free hand. "In pre-school I left the room all of the time! Now, where would the Prince's office be?"

"You don't know?" I asked with shock.

As another adult walked down the hall he whispered, "Just let me do the talking." 

I nodded in understanding as I let dinosaur boy handle this situation...whatever it was. He smiled as he asked a lady teacher (who turned out to be a sub) of another class, "Hello! We're looking for the Prince's office."

She raised her eyebrows for a moment until realization dawned on her face. "Oh. You mean the Principal's office? Let me show you, honey."


Without complaint or questions, we were led to the Principal's office. The sub teacher told the Principal he had some visitors and we both entered his office after that.

This principal with blue black skin and a wearer of cartoon neckties would come to know us both throughout our elementary education: for good and bad reasons. "Hello, how can I help you?" he asked us.

"This girl named..." he looked at me questioningly.

"Kat."

"This girl named Kat spoke with a girl who told her she can't speak with black people when Kat is clearly tan. Right?"

"Yes," I replied. 

The Principal raised both of his eyebrows as he looked at me and asked, "Do you remember who told you this?"

"I don't know her name, but..."

"She's the only girl in our class with sticky-outy Brown hair. I can point her out if you need me to!"

"I'm sure that won't be necessary, Mister...?"

"My name's Kit, sir."

"Well, let's go find your classroom." That day the girl with frizzy Brown hair left school earlier than the rest of us. Her parents weren't happy to see her. Even though there was an empty seat at the table I sat at before, I didn't take it. 

Instead, I sat down on the ground next to Kit as he was playing with his dinosaurs, and he even let me name a few of them. He had sun kissed blonde hair just like the girl with blue grey eyes. Except, his eyes were a piercing dark brown that looked into your soul.

He was the only friend I made that day. His turned out to be the only friendship that mattered.

About two friends who meet in a surprising way as well as dealing with societal boundaries in their own way. It's the first part of the story. There's currently 33 parts of 'Kit and Kat'.

"Your Majesty, those three humans have left!" a man, coming from the behind of the room, said.

"Ok!" Dragon King nodded slightly, then looked at the man: "Daniel, do you have anything to say?"

"Your Majesty, the Earth Dragon King must have a fate tablet in order to resurrect himself? Do we send someone to find and bring back that fate tablet? Stop the Earth Dragon King's resurrection?" Daniel said.

"The fate tablet was once a treasure of my dragons. Naturally, I want it to return to my dragon family. When the fate tablet was lost, we have long suspected that the Earth Dragon King did it. At this time, proved!"

"So, Your Majesty, how should this be done? The humans ..."

The Dragon King interrupted and said, "You don't need to worry about the humans. You send dragons to follow those humans secretly. Once those humans find the fate tablet, you should grab it back and don't hurt their lives.

The fate tablet is of great importance, and we must not let more people know that it is in our hands, otherwise, it will likely cause even greater disasters to my dragon family! "

"Yes, Your Majesty, Daniel knows how to do it!"

"Well, go, don't let me disappoint!" Dragon King waved his hands.

Daniel's figure spread out and disappeared. Dragon King's eyes glanced distantly from the entrance of the cave. And then he appeared that he continued to sleep in the cave, but his breath gradually began to become condensed.

...

In the Monsters Detective Bureau, three people appeared, and then found Xuan Laogua, and told him what they heard from the Dragon King.

Xuan Laogua said: "Well, it turns out that these dinosaurs were resurrected because of a mysterious treasure?

Then, what you have to do is to find that thing and bring it back if you can.

If it can not bring back, destroy it directly. We can't let more dinosaurs retrieved.

In addition, after you guys left, I took a careful look at the video footage, with some other gains.

The strange behavior of those people should be the blood sacrifice said by the Dragon King, and that mysterious treasure was the key to the resurrection of the dinosaurs.

However, it is not possible to resurrect the dinosaur with that treasure directly. The resurrection of dinosaurs requires energy. It also needs the energy to restore its previous strength. The blood sacrifice provides energy.

It 's okay if you can't find that mysterious treasure, you just need to ..."

Xuan Kong replied: "What do you mean, even if we can't find that mysterious treasure, we can stop the resurrection of the dinosaurs by stopping the blood sacrifice?"

"Yes!" Xuan Laogua nodded and said, "And if the resurrected dinosaurs want to recover stronger, they must have more blood sacrifices. The dinosaurs that were resurrected first should be the first to resurrect in order to collect the energy of the blood sacrifices.

As long as the eight resurrected dinosaurs are wiped out, you can basically stop the Dragon King from resurrecting. Go and stop them! "

"Yes, boss!" The three responded simultaneously, leaving Xuan Laogua's office, but then contacted the three, and the three went forward to converge with Xuan Tu and others, and exchanged the information obtained by both sides.

...

In a mountain forest, a strong man with blue hair punched a tree with a fist: "Damn it! What is the situation? How can the blood in this mountain forest be so scarce?

When do I regain my strength?

How can we get enough blood sacrifice energy for a larger resurrection ceremony?

How can I complete the task that my King gave me? "

The strong man very upset, he walked around the mountains and forests, only to find that this world is completely different from its era.

The trees have become shorter, the main thing is that there is less food in the mountains.

This is very depressing for those who want to quickly recover their strength.

After being depressed for a while, the blue-haired strong man looked at the glorious city under the mountain forest, feeling the countless blood and its fluctuations in the city.

He licked his lips and said, "It looks like we can only go to the cities of human beings to see. Is humanity now the master of this world? Oh, it is ridiculous that such a weak race can become the master of this land!"

Alas, then, the figure of the blue-haired man has headed towards the city below.

The young blue-haired man just left, a figure appeared here, and looked at the broken tree: "Damn, is it one step late? Where is that guy going next?"

This person is not someone else, and Su Yu is chasing.

Not long ago, Su Yu and Xuan Huo and others met at the excavation site. Xuan Huo and others also had some gains after Su Yu and others left. They identified the directions of those resurrected dinosaurs leaving, and the approximate strength of each dinosaur now.

Because the eight dinosaurs left in six directions, the six ones acted immediately.

Su Yu was in charge of chasing the strong man with blue hair.

As for the blue-hair man belongs to which type of dinosaur, Su Yu and others could not distinguish.

Because the breath that these resurrected dinosaurs are very similar.

It's really difficult to tell what kind of a dinosaur of which man.

But that's okay, no matter what kind of dinosaur the other party is, there is only one way to deal with them.

"Damn, why did the guy go around and go back to Weizhong City again?" Su Yu couldn't help cursing after carefully sensing the remaining breath of the other party in place.

Su Yu think this man was sick. After going through a large circle in the forest, then ran back to Weizhong City.

Of course, though scolding, Su Yu did not delay a little time, still chasing along with the breath left by the other party.

Soon, Su Yu came to the center of the lively Weizhong city.

Immediately, Su Yu's face became even more serious because the other party's breath disappeared here.

No, it should be more accurately said that the monster's breath covered by the dense human breath.

Su Yu has somewhat upset. The urban area of Weizhong City is not small, with a population of millions.

It is not a trivial matter to find a monster in such a dense population.

However, what Su Yu didn't know is that when he had a headache, Xuan Nv and others also faced the same situation. The targets of their respective killings all entered the city and lost their tracks.

"Wow, a lot of flash and blood. Is there so much humanity now? If they are all killed, it should be able to resurrect a large number of compatriots, and I can recover my strength soon!"

When Su Yu and others are losing their directions, the other side has entered the city center, watching the crowds on the street became extremely excited!

Because in Stohm's view, the humans in front of them are all readily available blood and can be harvested at will.

When you look up at the stars, have you ever thought that there is a monster looking at you?

When you pass by someone, have you ever thought that it cast greedy eyes on your flash and blood?

Humans are not alone, monsters are around us.

Travelling with Truen was something Zero enjoyed tremendously. As they put their heads to think of how to find a gnome city and the desert poppy, Zero also learned about Truen's new abilities.
"How come you never told me that you had such wonderful magic? Area Detection will help us navigate our way in the desert without a map. It's also good for finding underground caves. I don't know how many caves will reach the bedrock level but it's better than not knowing there was a cave beneath our feet."
Truen smirked. "I thought you said you had a plan?"
Hearing his best friend tease him about his lack of planning skills made Zero blush. In all honesty, Zero did make a plan. He just didn't think that far ahead.
"I planned! We just needed to find the desert poppy and a gnome city then get back. We already have a map of the desert so I thought we could mark out the place that had oasis towns as places to ask for directions."
While there was nothing wrong with Zero's plan, there was still too much uncertainty in it. Truen didn't know how Zero managed to survive so far but then he remembered that there was always someone else beside Zero to help him out. Even if there weren't anyone, Mii would always be the one scolding the doctor for his lack of foresight. His worries about Zero's future were unfounded and Truen felt a little silly for even considering it.
"Truen, what do you think we should name these sand walkers? Axel said that they are both females."
Whatever Truen thought Zero was going to say, it most certainly was not about naming some sand walkers. "Is this very important? I thought we're trying to plan what we're going to do about getting to Derby Desert and finding a solution to your village's shortage of manpower."
"Nah, those can solve themselves," Zero said airily. "I have an idea of what to do about them. The more important thing is to think about how we can name these beasts. According to Merlin, naming things can give them power. While they are strong, I think they need something extra against the harsh terrains of the desert. Also, regular beasts won't stand a chance against the dense mana in the air at Endow Hill. I also don't want them to be overwhelmed if Bob is going to join us."
Now that Zero mentioned it, the doctor had a good point. Horses were scared of dragons and that was one of the main reasons why Vrald and his group travelled mostly on foot. Olaf was still a dragon even if he was in his human form. Most humans cannot tell but it wasn't the same for animals and were folks.
"I don't really know. How about you name them? Just don't name them too powerful. I don't want to have to deal with questions about having two legendary evolved beasts."
Zero raised a brow. "I'm not going to do that. Besides, what can sand walkers evolve into? Dragons?"
The archer took a good look at the strange creatures and frowned. "Possibly. They're lizard-like with a bit of bird and fish on the side. If anything, I'd think of a basilisk instead of a dragon but that's not my point. Don't overdo it and control your magic when you name them."
Point noted, Zero threw name ideas at their mounts. The sand walkers weren't very responsive and Zero sighed. He didn't want to stick a name to them if they didn't like it. Surely there would be a sign if they liked a name, right?
They stopped for lunch and Zero was mentally exhausted. He came up with over three hundred names but neither of the sand walkers reacted to them. Still, the doctor wasn't going to give up. Truen's suggestions didn't sound much better. His friend mentioned that these sand walkers resembled velociraptors on the previous Earth. Although dinosaurs were extinct, books about it could still be found. Mii had been nice enough to find an illustration on that dinosaur for Zero who spent his time reading up a lot about dinosaurs. The naming was forgotten for a few days as they travelled in silence with Zero occasionally sharing fun facts about dinosaurs.
"I can't believe these sand walkers are relatives of dinosaurs from the old Earth. Unlike their terrifying cousins, they eat straw instead of meat. That's good to know. Also, do you think they can swim? Those webbed feet make me think they can."
Truen shrugged. "I have no idea, Zero. The one way to find out is to shove one of them into the water and see if they can swim. I highly suggest against it. Pulling a thrashing beast out is going to be more difficult than pushing them in."
Zero considered it and watched as his mounts ate. Then, an idea came to him. He wasn't known to be the best with names but surely, it wouldn't be anything as bad as the man who named dinosaurs after a direct translation from the language of the titans "Terrible Reptile" right?
To make it fancy-sounding, Zero decided to name them in a similar language of gods. He named Truen's mount "Ela" for "Light-footed" and his mount "Grigoria" for "Quick-footed" to wish them a speedy journey. Truen watched as the names became a line of runes, shackling the necks of the sand walkers as they evolved.
"How much magic did you put into their names?" the archer asked when the sand walkers transformed. They were beginning to shed feathers and Truen wondered if they were going to see a basilisk.
Zero watched as the sand walkers moulted their scales and shed their feathers to grow new ones. Ela grew some fiery orange feathers and dark green scales that reflected the sunlight. Grigoria grew yellow feathers and had dark blue scales that also reflected the sunlight. Both sand walkers were easier to identify after their transformation and Zero grinned. He took out a hunting knife and prodded the new scales, they were solid as steel.
"What do you think about armoured sand walkers?" he asked.
Truen nodded in approval. "You did well. At least now we can tell which mount is mine. Still, are the feathers merely for show or can they actually fly now?"
Zero shrugged. "Only one way of finding out. We shove them off the cliff and tie a rope on them in case they can't. Though I must say, pulling up a beast as big as this will be more tedious than pushing them off a cliff."
Truen took two seconds to understand why those words sounded familiar. Zero was learning how to throw the words he used back at him. Feeling annoyed but proud that this doctor was growing, Truen rolled his eyes and dismissed the idea. It was way too much work.
"Let's go. I can smell the forest of Endow Hill now, we must be close to the border. If we're fast, we can reach it by late afternoon and look for a place to set up camp. I don't know about you but I feel like hunting for pheasants."
Zero agreed. The food offerings by the giants might be good but nothing beats the thrill of hunting and cooking wild pheasants over a campfire.

"Ok, it is decided, tonight I will give each of you a drop and we will have our first blood bath."

 

After that was dealt with, everyone had launch together before returning to what they were doing before.

 

When they left Dan felt as if he was going to remember something, but he just wasn't able to, it was one of those memories which were blurred in his mind, he was able to see that the memory was from the world which old Ben had memories of, the one with dinosaurs and superhuman people who had strong body powers, it's just that the memory was blurry and unclear, but he know what it was about because he was able to remember a part of it and that part said 'body strengthening'.

 

As he wasn't able to remember it clearly he throw it to the back of his mind, then he called old Frank and asked him to fill the baths in his and the others rooms with hot water later when it's time for sleep.

 

The rest of the day passed with everyone doing what they were supposed to do, Dan also asked Robert to take him to the ships the day after.

 

The sun had already passed long ago when all of them returned to their rooms to sleep; before they separated Dan gave each of them a little bottle with two drops of dragon's blood in them, and asked them to use only one the first time because using more than that was suicide as most human wouldn't handle that it at first.

 

He also returned to his room and found that the bath was ready so he dropped the drop of dragon blood.

 

It was just one drop but it made all the water red, Dan then took of all his clothes and entered the water.

 

As soon as he did he felt as if his skin was being stabbed by needles, and when that happened the memory which was blurry in his head! became clear and he finally understood it.

 

The memory was about a technique that the people on that world used to temper their bodies in that world, they usually do that by bathing in the blood of strong and abnormal dinosaurs.

 

When those memories became clear in his head, he didn't even think about it a lot before getting up and taking the needle which Anie gave him as he forget to return it to her.

 

After that he took a big breath and entered the bath, every part of his body was in the water even his head, and then he started to stab himself all over his body using the needle, between his eyebrows, his joints, the back of his head and many other places like that.

 

His movement were clean and stable as if he did that thousands of times before.

 

he felt the need to breath after a minute and half had passed, but he didn't leave instead he calmed his beating heart and relaxed his mussels, as he did that he felt a warm current streaming through every part of his body entering from the places where he stabbed himself.

 

As time passed and more of that warm current entered his body the feeling of the need to breathe disappeared and his heart beats started getting slower and slower, till he finally lost his consciousness and fall deep in the water.

 

Splash!

 

Dan woke up and started taking big breaths of air, he felt as if his lounges were going to explode with each breath yet it still didn't seemed enough.

 

It took him a few seconds to calm himself down, and for his breathing to return to normal, when it did he stood up and he found that some objects in his room felt shorter, than he walked to a big mirror on the bathroom, and saw that he had grown a few centimeters taller, and the little bit of unwanted fat on his body was nowhere to be seen.

 

He also felt refreshed and as if his body was full of power, it was the first time he felt such weird feeling, it was as if he was in a whole new body.

 

Then he turned his head to look at the water, he saw that the water didn't have any signs of the color red, but it wasn't clear it was somehow gray and had a foul smell.

 

He calmed himself and took a normal bath with clear water before wearing his clothes; he took one last look at his reflection on the mirror, shook his head before leaving the room.

 

He didn't know what time it was so he stopped one guard and asked him what hour it was supposed to be, the guard answered him saying that it was around seven in the morning, when Dan asked him about how they kept note of time in the base, he told him that they had some hour-glasses in the base.

 

Leaving the guard, Dan moved to the meeting room and set there, it had become a habit for all of them to have their meals together.

 

While waiting for the others to come he started thinking about the blood bath, and the body tempering technique that he remembered when he entered the bath, he knew that the changes that he experienced most be more then the other five, as from what he heard from old Frank even though blood baths are good for humans, only one season won't have such a major effect like the one he had.

 

So the only explanation for what happened to him was that the body tempering technique which he remembered, after all in his memories when hat body tempering technique made it to its higher levels it will allow normal humans to fight and kill dinosaurs bare handed.

 

Thinking about the memories in his mind of peoples fighting dinosaurs bare handed made him excited but he hurriedly calmed himself, as he knew that only two drops of dragon's blood won't be able turn him to that.

 

He also started thinking about the relationship between the blood baths and the technique he remembered, it was quite obvious that the blood baths were probably a backward form of the body tempering technique, maybe that was the reason why he remembered the technique in the first place, because they had a lot in common.

 

Soon after the other five entered the room, and just as Dan expected their changes weren't as big as his.

 

The other five showed surprised expressions when they entered the room and saw Dan there, especially after he stood up when they entered as they were able to see how long he had became and his suite which became smaller then him.

 

"Just... What the f***k happened to you?" Nero asked with a weird expression on his face.

 

"Well a lot happened, set down I'll tell you after we finish breakfast." Dan said with somehow of an embarrassed smile, he knew when he put his clothes on that they were way too small for him, but he didn't have any other thing to wear so he wore them reluctantly.

 

"Hey guys guess what? I can control my power." as Dan was getting down he heard Katherine happy voice, it seemed as if she wasn't able to wait till after breakfast to tell them.

 

"Wh... What did you just say?" Dan asked, that was something he didn't expect.

 

"I said that after the blood bath I can control my power, I can feel the power passing through my body and I don't need to concentration as long as I had to do yesterday to control it, it's much easier, and this may seem weird but I somehow feel as if the power in my body is stronger, it's just a little bit stronger but I can feel it." Katherine said excitedly.

 

"What about you then brother?" Anie asked her brother as soon as Katherine finished her words.

 

"Yeah I'm better and now. I can feel my power flowing in my body unlike yesterday." Robin said while patting his sisters head, the happiness was apparent in his voice.

 

"And you Nero, how is it?" Dan asked.

 

"Well it's harder to tell with abilities like mine but I do feel that there is a small change from yesterday, like how even without concentrating I can smell a dragon's smell on all... Wait I can't feel it coming from you!"

 

Nero was going to say how his powers got a little bit stronger and even though he tried to hide it, it was apparent that he was happy, but then his expression changed as he looked at Dan and shouted, he just couldn't understand how no matter how normal the thing was supposed to be, if Dan became a part of it, something weird will happen.

 

"Well I said that I will take about it after breakfast didn't i? now let us just have breakfast calmly." Dan said with a smile on his face, but deep in his heart he wandered if the small of a dragon was because they didn't absorb all of the power well.

 

After that, they all had breakfast together happily.

 

When hey ended their breakfast and Dan saw how everyone were looking at him he laughed and said:

 

"Well yesterday as soon as I entered the blood bath a memory in my mind became clear, it was from a world where there's dinosaurs and humans, in it humans have strong body power, but that power isn't natural it is cultivated through the years.

 

"The source of this power is them bathing in the blood of stronger and abnormal dinosaurs, but they don't bath in the blood just like that, they have specific techniques that they use, the memory which became clear in my head was about such a technique so I tried it, and it seems that it worked better than normal blood baths."

 

The others looked at Dan and then remembered how he looked yesterday and they sighed, the technique seemed as if it really worked way better than normal blood baths.

 

"You better tell us this technique." Randy said, while sighing.

 

"Of course I will, it's just that..." Dan nodded his head, but then he showed a hesitant expression.

 

Seeing that Nero asked:

 

"Just that what?"

 

"It's just that to do this technique you will need to poke specific points in the human body with a needle, I know where they are clearly as the memory is stuck in my mind, but even if I tell you the location entirely you might make a mistake, and from my memories making a mistake like that can bring some big consequences, the lighter ones are being partly paralysed while the worst are getting fully paralysed or even death.

 

"The good news however, is that the needle treatment will only be used once, and the parts which I need to stab aren't that... Private" Dan answered.

 

When they heard this everyone turned silent, there was one big problem with what Dan said; it was if they trust him to do the technique as it has some strong side effects if anything ever gets wrong.

 

"We shall talk about that later, now Leonard can you tell me how are you feeling, I think that blood baths has a good effect on the abilities for ability users." seeing how the atmosphere in the room turned somehow weird, Dan gave them enough time to think about it as he asked Leonard about what the blood bath changed for him.

 

"I can't really feel any changes except my body's power getting a little bit better." Leonard said while scratching his head.

 

"No changes? Oh did you keep the ice heart on you when you took the bath." Dan seemed confused at first, but he soon seemed as if he remembered something before asking him.

 

"Yeah I kept it on me, why was I supposed to take it off?" Leonard asked.

 

"No, and remember from now on, each time you have a blood bath you should keep the ice heart on you, and forget about how I said to remove it when we are in a fight, even then keep it on you, make it become a part of you till the day I ask you to remove it." Dan said.

 

"Ok, I will do as you say."

What will happen if there's a multiverse? what will happen if everything in this multiverse merges one day...

Follow the group of Dan in their journey from one Area to another as they grow stronger.

I looked at Konner and said, "Are you gonna tell her what happened or not?"
Konner just looked at me. I growled and shifted into a brown wolf. I crouched, prepared to pounce on the Cat Shifter.
"Oh, yeah. I am. Okay, so what happened was this; I shifted into a lion and tore the soft membrane of her dragon wings causing her to change back to human and then she ran. You know the rest." Konner said.
I didn't shift back but I did however walk away. Techna obediently follows me. "Chara wait up! I'm not as fast as you when you're in the dark!" Techna said.
I sighed and slowed down just enough to let Techna catch up. As soon as we were out of the woods, I shifted back to human form and headed for my house.
"You're heading home? It's nearly midnight, C. Why don't you come over to my place and spend the night?" Techna asked.
"It's fine. No one even knows I'm gone except for Azzie. So chill out T." I answered. I walked over to where my bedroom window was located two stories up. I jumped up to the window and climbed into my room. "Goodnight Techna." I said, closing my bedroom window. When I turned around, Asriel was standing in the doorway.
"Where have you been Chara?" Asriel asked in a somewhat angry tone. Asriel never got angry unless Mom and Dad were out on a date.
I swore underneath my breath and answered, "I was out for a walk that's all. I told you that before I left."
Asriel just frowned. "You never said that you would be back at midnight. Damn it Chara what the hell have you been doing for ten hours and thirty minutes!" He shouted.
I whimpered, Asriel never yelled at me, in fact he never yelled period. I was trying to think of a lie when Techna came running into my room. "Techna?" I asked.
"She's been hanging out with me, she texted me asking if I wanted to go on a stroll with her and I said yes. Check her phone if you don't believe me." Techna said. I handed my phone over to Asriel after unlocking it.
He opened the messaging app on my phone and clicked the one that was labeled Techna. "Alright I believe you, but Chara why did you climb in through the window?" Asriel said, looking at me when he asked the question.
"Because I didn't want to wake anyone up, plus I didn't know mom and dad were gone!" I said, still whimpering.
Asriel noticed that I was whimpering and hugged me, saying, "Shhh. It's alright Chara. It's okay." He patted my head, waiting for me to stop whimpering. I eventually did stop and Asriel let go of me. "You okay now?" He asked.
I nodded and he left my room. Techna looked at me and said, "You have a crush on him don't you?" I looked away from Techna and blushed like crazy. "You so do! Oh my gosh. I can't believe it! You have a crush on your adoptive brother!" Techna squealed.
"Shhhhh! Not so loud T!" I said, still blushing. Techna smiled at me and then gave me a hug.
I sighed and pushed her off of me. "Come on C! You let Asriel hug you!" she said, pouting.
"Would you like to see my scales?" I asked, completely ignoring Techna. I opened the dresser drawer and pulled out a couple of green scales. "Look." I said, holding out the green scales putting them directly into Techna's eyesight.
"Woah! Cool!" Techna said in awe. She took the scales and started to scan them with her special robotic eye that looks surprisingly real. "May I test one of these?" she asked. I laughed and shook my head.
"You would have to do it here or do it with me nearby. Try leaving the house with one, T." I said.
Techna did as I told her and found that she could not leave the house, she walked back up to my room, the scale was in her handbag, and Asriel was right behind her. Techna looked mad while Asriel looked tired and confused. "What is going on?" Asriel said sleepily.
I sighed and said, "Azzie, can you keep a secret? Because if you can't then I'll have to keep it between me and Techna."
Asriel looked at me and said, "Chara you know I can keep a secret, but if mom and dad start asking questions I will have to tell them. You know how much I hate lying to them."
I nodded and said, "Watch this, but first you should come outside. T, you will have to stay here or jump out the window with me." I opened the window and Asriel ran downstairs and out the door. Techna and I stood on the windowsill, I jumped out the window and Techna jumped onto my back right as I shifted into a dragon. I then picked up Asriel with my talons and he started to scream. I looked at Techna on my back, she understood what I wanted her to do.
Techna climbs down to where Asriel is clinging to his life in my left talon. "Asriel, it's okay, she won't eat you or harm you in anyway. She trusts you with her secret, for she knows nothing else but the pain of being rejected by others. Surely you must sense the pain that she hides deep within her very being?" Techna says soothingly. Asriel looks up at my majestic green dragon head and stops screaming and he nods. "We will talk more when she sets us down." Techna says. "C! Set us down before you land!" She shouts up at me.
I dive down in a spiral and set them down before pulling up and then landing two feet away from them. I shift back, my clothes are in tatters and Asriel runs over and hugs me. "H-huh?" I stutter in pure confusion. 
"Why didn't you tell me that you were in constant pain Chara?" Asriel whispers in my ear. I can hear his heart beating as well as hear his blood flowing through his veins. I look away, unable to respond to his question.
Techna answers for me, "Because she didn't want you to see her this way. Buried in the pain of her past as well as the guilt of what she did to those closest to her, she has tried to escape her past but is unable to do so. It haunts her even to this day." Techna looks at me before continuing, "Chara you should tell him how old you really are."
I shake my head before answering, "No, I shall not tell him anything of my past, it is only fair."
"Chara…" Asriel whispers in my ear again, causing shivers to go down my spine, not the bad ones of course, the good ones, the ones that fill me with so much love despite the hate and pain for myself. "Please, Chara, tell me so I can accept you for you." Asriel whispers again.
I whimper but answer reluctantly, "I am one billion two hundred forty-five  million two hundred twenty two years old. I lived among dinosaurs but I am much older than the now extinct creatures. The two original Shifter's lived long before dinosaurs. The Wolf Shifter's and the Dragon Shifter's. Of course back then, wolves looked different but I have evolved to look like the new Wolf Shifters as well as retain my old true form of the old Wolf Shifter's. The Dragon Shifters are older than time itself, but now there are no more, except for me. I am the last Dragon Shifter, yet, I am also the last true Wolf Shifter."
Asriel looks at me in pure shock for a minute or two before responding, "But how?" I sigh and wait for Asriel to push me away, instead he pulls me closer.
"I'm not just a Shifter Azzie, I'm something… more, something… dead." I whisper, holding back the billion year old blood tears that threaten to spill. 
"What are you then?" Asriel whispers back. I can still hear his heart beat and it's getting louder and louder in my head, I start to lose control of something I thought I had under control all those years ago.
"I am a vampire, and that is the truth." I whisper before pushing myself away from Asriel. I let the tears spill and look up at Asriel. "You might wanna run home before I lose control, Azzie. I haven't lost control in a billion years and I don't want to hurt you or kill you Azzie. So please! Run! Run as far as you can, I don't want to hear your heartbeat in my head anymore!" I sob. "RUN PLEASE!" I shout.
Asriel obeys, taking Techna with him, but Techna can't go far because of the scale she carries with her. "Go on without me. Chara can't hurt me so I will be fine." she says to Asriel and he runs on ahead. He ran all the way home, he entered the house and entered my room to wait for my return. He looks around my room before sitting on my bed and crying quietly to himself.
Meanwhile, I am hunting animals and drinking their blood, killing them in the process when Techna knocks me out cold.

This book is about a girl named Chara Dragon Dreemurr and she is secretly a shapeshifter. No one, not even Techna Tiger, knows that Chara is a shapeshifter. I will give you no information about either one of them. Just read and you will learn.

In the conference room, everyone couldn't help but straighten up and lean forward. Even Great-Grandma felt the tense atmosphere and leaned forward.
Taking a deep breath. Lightning King tried to make his voice as plain as possible. "Continue speaking."
"After the joint effort of several experts in geography and history, we can basically determine the location, which is near Mount. Niu, Wu County, the county under the jurisdiction of Wuzhou," said the secretary.
While she was speaking, Lightning King opened the laptop on the desk, checked the map, linked it to the overhead projector, and the white curtain behind him showed the panoramic map of Mount Niu.
Lightning King looked at the huge area of 1328 hectares and frowned. "The precise location?"
One thousand three hundred twenty eight hectares was only the area of the forest, and not even including the area around it.
The secretary apologized on the phone. "I'm sorry, this is the most precise positioning that could be achieved."
"Enough," said Thunderlord. "Just find the general location. The key of the Great Deities Palace will guide us."
"Wu County just built a general airport last year. We can fly there directly from Shanghai. I have arranged a flight within the next two hours," said the secretary.
"Okay!" Lightning King nodded and said to the senior staff in the video conference, "The company will select the members who will enter the Great Deities Palace in an hour, and all the senior staff in Shanghai who have signed up must gather at the headquarters immediately. The senior staff of other branches must arrive at Wu County within ten hours if they are selected."
"Yes!" The chat flooded with acknowledgments.
Lightning King then instructed, "Inform the task department, the screening conditions are as follows: single, family conditions are abundant, have brothers and sisters, ruthless… These people are preferred. In addition, send a message to all selected employees…"
He thought about it and said solemnly, "Baoze will always remember your contributions."
The secretary said in silence, "Okay."
Three hours later, a business car left the underground Baoze Carpark, carrying forty of Baoze's top fighting force participating in the mission of Great Deities Palace to the airport.
Standing at the window of the office, Lightning King looked down at the scene with no expression.
"What are you thinking?" the secretary behind him said.
"I have a bad feeling," Lightning King whispered.
"Because of the… Trouble magnet of the Li family?"
"No, it's the Great Deities Palace itself. The first opening of the Great Deities Palace palace was eighty years ago, and the second one was twenty years ago. The cycle is getting shorter and shorter. What does this mean? In the Great Deities Palace, there may be an opportunity to become the Gokudo Path. The demonic priest is the best example. Such temptations move people's hearts. Most people in the demon descendant community only see this appearance, but they don't see the inside of the Great Deities Palace itself. No matter the monsters on Li Xianyu or the awakening meat of the Great Demons Alliance, the true nature of them are not those of treasures but a disaster."
The secretary was stunned and could not help lowering her voice. "You mean…"
"Before the meeting, I had a brief talk with the big boss on the phone about the Great Deities Palace. He talked to me about the ancient demon. Our power came from the ancient demon. As we all know, they were powerful creatures that had been annihilated in a long history. No matter how strong a species is, it can't compete with time, which is what we all agreed upon in later generations. "
"At least that was until the emergence of the slime. Now we have to wonder, why did the ancient demon disappear? Is it really because they cannot withstand the test of time? Slime had been in the Great Deities Palace for tens of thousands of years, hundreds of thousands of years, or even longer. The blade of time hasn't killed it. How can we kill the ancient demon? "
"What is the cause of their extinction in this world? So, powerful creatures can't be killed simply by natural disasters?"
If the ancient demons didn't disappear, then the master of the world was them. According to the law of biological evolution, there can only be one overlord in one world.
If dinosaurs had not been extinct in those days, then there would be nothing going on with humans now. Maybe the present civilized society was composed of dinosaurs. The dinosaurs with a high intelligence would go to work in the office building, while all the bricks in the construction site would be moved around by Tyrannosaurus Rex.
Mosasaurus could act as a fisherman and boat, carrying land dinosaurs to and fro across various continents and islands. Each dinosaur could earn 10,000 dollars of boat fare. Velociraptors could act as a taxi driver.
No, if the ancient demon didn't die out, then there would be no dinosaurs in the first place.
Dinosaurs and apes were just livestock on their farm.
The secretary couldn't help but wonder. "What did the big boss say?"
Lightning King was silent. He seemed to be considering whether to tell the secretary. After all, with her rank, she was not qualified to know such a high-end conversation, even if it was just a casual chat between the big boss and him.
If she was an ordinary secretary, Lightning King would definitely not tell her, but the woman behind him had accompanied him for several years. She was only missing a status.
Therefore, Lightning King said, "He said that no one had seen the ancient demon. The speculation about it all came from the clues of history. So, who said the ancient demon was a race?"
"What do you mean by that?" The secretary didn't understand.
"I don't know. Maybe it's just some speculation of the big boss. Maybe he found some clues. You know, he hardly comes to the company. Nobody knows what he is doing in secret." Lightning King shrugged. "The only thing I understood was that the secret of the ancient demon's disappearance may be exposed with the opening of the Great Deities Palace. I even suspect that Li Wuxiang knew these secrets. His choice to die at that time was not as simple as making enemies with the world."
With that, he looked at the group of business cars that were moving away and said, "I don't know how many of them can come back. Sometimes I wonder why my talent is so bad that I am not qualified to fight with them in the front line."
The secretary hugged Lightning King from behind and worshiped. "You are different from them. You are the strategist of Baoze. How can you fight like those soldiers? You should be in charge of your own business. Baoze can operate without anyone but you."
His secretary was his number one fan. Although he was very happy, he was still embarrassed.
Similarly, the big boss also said that in a battle, the strategist was always more important than the fierce generals, just like the state of Shu in the Three Kingdoms. Without the five tiger generals, it was still the state of Shu. But without Zhuge Liang, its strength would come to an end.
But being irreplaceable to Baoze… If this was heard by the big boss, his skull would probably be cracked open.
The secretary caressed the chest muscles of Lightning King, and her face leaned on his back, full of infatuation.
Lightning King originally intended to be alone. He was a disciple of Taoism and didn't attach importance to women. However, after getting her post, the secretary was quickly attracted by his steadiness and became a little fan of Lightning King. She actively pursued him.
He didn't pay attention to women, but he always had a slight yearning for love. He couldn't resist the gentle courtship of the secretary— bah, the persistence of the secretary. After a while, the two got together.
But they didn't live together, and Lightning King still lived in the company. However, the secretary stayed in Lightning King's suite all the time, except for the weekend.
"How many times have I said that?" Lightning King frowned and pushed aside the secretary's arm. "Don't do extra things during working hours."
The secretary complained. "Oh."
It was a little confusing, but the secretary liked this type of serious man.
The age difference between the two was nearly ten years, and the relationship was dominated by Lightning King. The curvaceous and mature secretary was more like a daughter in front of him. No, more like a sister. No, that was not right either. It was hard to pinpoint.
We can't be too close to the company. If the boss knows, he'll blow my head off, Lightning King said in his heart.
Lightning King thought back when the big boss first found out that he was doing the secretary in his free time, the big boss was utterly furious. He said that if he were to see any intimate behavior between him and the secretary during working hours, he would fire the secretary and give him a plain-looking one.
The big boss was serious and disciplined.
...
In the second car in the business car fleet, San Wu was responsible for driving. She was a very professional driver. She didn't listen to music, played on mobile phones, or read her chats. She only looked at the front and rear-view mirrors.
No matter what one was to do, San Wu could focus on just driving.
Li Xianyu and his grandmother sat in the second row. He was looking down and scrolling through the chat in the group. The selected senior employees made speeches in the group. Some of them also sang songs of war, as if they were soldiers going to fight on the battlefield.
"Who says we have no courage? I will be wearing the same uniform as you. Polishing our halberds, we will fight side by side."
This passage was RT-ed crazily. The senior staff who were not selected gave their best wishes to their colleagues: "Bon Voyage!"
In this time of solemn-ness and excitement, a small loli jumped out. "Brothers and sisters, uncles and aunts, all the best. Please come back triumphant!"
The atmosphere in the group suddenly stagnated and fell into a strange silence.
"Oh my God, this curse took me by surprise."
"God, please keep watch on Tong Tong at times like this. It's not so hard, right?"
"F*ck. Originally the aura of trouble magnet is enough for us to be frightened, and then now we are cursed, my will to fight is broken."
"My will to fight is broken +1."
"My will to fight is broken +2."
"It's over. This trip to the Great Deities Palace is a dead end. Can I jump out now?"
"It's too late. The doors and the windows are all soldered shut."
Li Xianyu burst out in a cold sweat. "Tong Tong's curse… Even I'm in a panic."
Originally looking at the chat in the group, my heart was full of fighting spirit. Great-Grandma's dream made us so fearful of the future, and looking at such an encouraging atmosphere made me feel better. Now, I haven't even gathered enough courage, but my will is already broken.
Thunderbolt Battle Lady glared at him from the corner of her eye, and lambasted him. "Do you really have the right to say that?"
"Also." Li Xianyu laughed. "Aren't you on the same team as me? When you were choosing your camps, you chose my team again. Is it that you can't bear to part with me?"
Thunderbolt Battle Lady glared. "Funny. Am I here for you? I'm here for the points. Teaming up with you, I can get 1,500 points compared to the normal 1,000 points reward. Anyway, it's not the first time. I have nothing to be afraid of. Remember, I'm just for the contribution points."
This tsundere. Is it so difficult to admit that you want to team up with me? Li Xianyu was speechless.
Earth God Tian Hao sat in the last row and said, "Battle Lady is such a good girl, how can she fall in love with Li Xianyu, a notorious scum man? Is it true that girls like jerks? "
This mixed-blooded beauty had a pretty face and a good figure, especially a pair of beautiful legs that would rouse… the interest of any man who looked at them.
Thunderbolt Battle Lady didn't fear the name of Baoze's ten gods, and shot back. "What are you bullshitting about? From which eye did you see that I'm interested in this kid? Did you get up this morning without any eye drops?"
She would never admit that she was interested in Li Xianyu. Since the discussion meeting, whenever the female colleagues of the company mentioned Li Xianyu, they would all respond with disgust.
In the beginning, the issue with the stickers was very famous. Then he stirred so much shit during the Forum Conference. Now everyone in the company would shake with fear when they talked about Li Xianyu.
If she really had something to do with Li Xianyu in the future, then the colleagues of the company would gossip like crazy and say, "Look, this is Li Xianyu's girlfriend~"
Just thinking about it, she was already cringing. At least that was the ideal case she thought about.
"Well said, my great-grandson is not worthy of you," Great-Grandma said in a strange tone.
Thunderbolt Battle Lady quietly ground her teeth.
Li Xianyu was unresponsive to the name "Jerk." He accepted it calmly and turned around with a smile. "Earth God, oh, Earth God, listening to your tone, you had a girlfriend?"
Tian Hao sighed. "We broke up long ago. Alas, I have had two girlfriends and they were both quite pretty. But their tempers were not good and they were really selfish. Before falling in love, they were all sweet talk. After falling in love, they instantly evolved into a slave driver and asked me to do their chores. I am not some kind of masochist, and can't stand such women, so we parted. Someone like Battle Lady would be really nice. She has a gentle temper and is a prim and proper lady. Unfortunately, the guy doesn't want to return her feelings." Tian Hao analyzed.
It's just that you don't know how much money she eats. No matter how high my salary is, my bank is empty at the end of the month.
"Which girls don't have a temper? They are all the only children. It is normal that they are willful," Li Xianyu said.
"Yes." Tian Hao sighed. "In the future, I will marry Yamato Nadeshiko (the ideal women in Japanese culture). It's said that the women in the island country are more obedient to their husbands."
Li Xianyu couldn't help but feel jealous. This guy could at least choose his spouse freely.


When Li Xianyu was 20 years old, he received his father's inheritance, an 18-year-old great-grandmother who was incredibly beautiful. 

Li Xianyu: "Great-Grandma, why are you so young?"

Great-Grandma: "That's because I died when I was 18 years old."

Li Xianyu: Σ( っ° д°;)っ

At the moment we can see both Kronos and Kaguya sitting across one and another in the same bedroom they woke up this morning.

Kronos at this moment has a conflicted look on his face as he doesn't know what to do in these situations while Kaguya was looking at him with curiosity as she waits for him to decide to either break down because of guilt and take responsibility or try to find an excuse to make things less awkward for themselves.

They stayed like this for an hour until Kaguya's patience finally wore out and started to speak up as Kronos still wasn't able to say a word despite his numerous attempts to speak.

"Kronos, I know you feel guilty but don't worry as last night wouldn't have happened if I didn't want it to." Kaguya

After hearing what Kaguya said Kronos felt both relieved and foolish at the moment but Kaguya didn't stop talking as she has a decisive glint in her eyes and a teasing smile.

"Also, now that we have become one, you and I are now in a union together, Darling." Kaguya

Kronos almost keeled over to the floor hearing Kaguya's playful words about them being in some kind of marriage but Kaguya didn't let him have time to get his thoughts in order as she found teasing him fun.

"I also know you like the other girls around you. Oh, what kind of husband I have and because of your indecisiveness you never try to make a move on your own, only ever wait and see before you can do a thing, you're basically letting others decide for you. And like the girls in the house, other than flirting you do nothing, you were just going to lead me on like them and never do a thing, also if we didn't know about your personality we might have thought you were hiding in the closet as they say it. But now that I'm your wife, I will be changing that part of you, you will now stop being indecisiveness and be more forthright in your actions, also just know that if you ever get more wives in the future they need my approval first and you're not allowed to cheat on us." Kaguya

Once Kaguya finished talking she gave Kronos a smile that wasn't really one that sends shivers down his spine for unknown reasons before she stood up and moved next to Krono's side with a serene smile that looks so natural that the past smile seemed to never existed but Kronos knew better and decided to listen to his new wife warning.

As Kronos and Kaguya were talking about there newfound relationship back at the Watch Tower the Justice League has returned from there assignment.

Also now that the moons are gone, Batman was the one to start the meeting.

"Okay, now can anyone tell me any new information about last night's incidents." Bruce

The one to respond first was the Fash as he couldn't stop chuckling to himself.

"Yes, everyone loves those dinosaurs and no is allowed to turn them back. I even head a Save The Dinosaurs foundation was made, they haven't been letting anyone near them to turn them back to normal, haha, also you should have seen how the grand John Constantine was running out of the museum by a group of grade-schoolers, haha." Barry

After hearing Flash words Batman looked around the table to find all League magic-users looking away from his penetrating stare and it was up to Dr. Fate to speak up for them as he wasn't affected by Batman's deadly stare.

"You don't have to worry, I checked the magic used on the dinosaurs it's harmless no harmful spell was put on them and it's not important issues to turn them back, let them be." Dr. Fate

After hearing Dr. Fate's thoughts on the matter Batman let it go and gesture for the meaning to go on.

This time it was Martian Manhunter to speak up.

"I have looked into the people that randomly appeared and they are all like Santa Claus saying they were summoned by a couple or didn't know anything as they were summoned while asleep. Out of all the people who were summoned there's a clan that we should be wary of, they are not dangerous like the other, to say the least, but when they involve themselves in something it mostly ends up in pandemonium, the clan call themselves the Addams Family. Also, the main branch was summoned next door to your home Bruce, be careful around the girl." Martian Manhunter

After giving his report Batman turned to look at Wonder Woman ignoring Martian manhunter's warning to see if Wonder Woman had anything to add about her end of the investigation.

Wonder Woman seeing that it was her time to talk stood up and coughed once gathering everyone's attention before she began to talk.

"From the energy readings and leftover aura we gather, I have narrowed it down to be the work of powerful gods, most likely a god of pranks and a god of magic were having fun with us mortals." Diana

Hearing Wonder Woman's evaluate of the situation and how she narrowed down the suspects the League then started working from there to find better ways to deal with similar situations in the possible future.

As the Justice League was trying to find the possible future situations of worldwide pranks Kronos and Kaguya are now walking into CatCo. as their pranks forcefully called back all available staff as it became really busy with all the reports they are getting.

As Kronos walks in with Kaguya by his side he saw a yelling Cat who is giving order to everyone like a General to her soldiers and at this moment it was like Cat was in her element and no one had the power to stop her or deny her orders. Cat seeing Kronos immediately tells him to go to a nearby computer to edit everything that's sent to him and he does what he's told without giving much thought and like everyone else was affected by Cat's aura working like there's no tomorrow.

Kronos did his work as told and only was able to finish everything by lunchtime, with a tired look on his face. As he was working Kaguya was sitting near him looking at his work with a smile, as she had nothing better to do. As for everyone around Kronos and her were staring at them intensely from time to time.

The men were mostly had jealous stares for Kronos because he always has a beautiful woman by his side and the ones looking at Kaguya were just ogling her body but didn't dare get near her as they felt if they did they will lose something important. As for the woman they looked at Kronos with some disgust or interest as he looks like a handsome playboy in their eyes and as for Kaguya it was pity and jealousy as she's one of the most beautiful women they ever saw and it also looks like she's being played by Kronos the Playboy.

Once Kronos was done with all his work both him and Kaguya left to a break room as Kronos wasn't going to leave right away as Linda had texted him that she wanted to meet him later in the day.

It seems to him that she either wants to confront him about their secret identities or ask for something, like for help or whatnot.

I die young in my last life because some jerk thought he was fine to drive buzzed only to end up ramming his car right into me and then driving away thinking I was a f*cking deer.

But that was in the past and thanks to the gods I was able to be transmigrated into a new world with a new body along with my choice of 3 wish and 2 divinities.

After choosing my wishes and divinities I was reborn in a new world.

F*ck!!! 

I was transmigrated into the DCU and it's not the movies or comics but some unknown alternate reality. 
It's not that I don't like DC but man all the random stuff that happens and the dark undertones aren't good for my mental health at all. I want a peaceful long life, not this sh*t.

This is a fanfic and all characters are owned by their original creators.

There's a Box-Office movie called Dinosaur World 4D that'll be showing tomorrow, my friends and I decided to watch it together, we're just college students so in order to watch the movie, we saved up our monthly allowances in advance when the trailer of it was released in Youtube, we are what you call otakus, not any other kinds of otakus that you normally see in the modern time today since anime has been taking over the era today. 

But we are not an anime otaku, 4 of my friends and me are Dinosaur Otakus, we're really knowledgeable about Dinosaurs, We know every species that have been discovered and we are always looking for news for new discoveries of new dinosaur bones, to widen our knowledge, one of my friends is a great computer geek, he even hacked NASA just to be sure that the information that we have in Dinosaurs are updated. 

I may group myself with them but my knowledge about dinosaurs are limited and is not comparable to their knowledge, even so I am pretty confident that I have more information about dinosaurs if you compare me to any other person other than my friends. 

We were really looking forward to watching this movie in the release date that we even persuaded our hacker friend not to hack the system of the one who'll produced the movie. 

After the day passed, morning quickly came and I was woke up by my alarm clock that was set to ring at 4am, well the movie will be showing at 8am. Even so I was so excited, my friends and I agreed to meet in the plaza 7am. 

After preparing everything and dressing myself in my casual clothes and I went out 6:30am I was waiting for my friends at the plaza when suddenly I saw a beautiful girl looking at me. It feels like she's staring at me like she knows me for a very long time, I was stricken stiff by her gazed that when she approached me I only reacted when she was a meter away from me and it seems to me that she's not stopping even though we're already close enough to have a conversation, before I even had the chance to say anything. She kissed me and whispered something in my ear. "Found You." 

That was the last thing I remembered before my consciousness faded away with the beautiful girl's face as the last thing I remember. 

After I came to be, I was now in a dark room, well it was dark that's why I call it a dark room. Although I was wrapped like a cocoon and the wrapper was wet, I thought I was abducted by someone but when I tried to scream, I realized that I can't even say anything, although I've been in this dark room for so long, strangely I don't get hungry and tired at all, it's just that I feel uncomfortable every now and then because I can't even move my body properly. 

After spending so much time in that dark room I was blinded by a light coming from a distance, as the light approaches I feel like someone is pulling me my head out of the room or something. I tried to scream again but all I can make are crying sounds. 

It's been so long since I saw light that It was hard to adjust to it, I spend another long-time just to have my vision back to how it is and another strange thing is that I can't move my body at all. In some situations when I feel hungry and need to eat, I try to scream again for help but someone just put a fleshy thing in my mouth and I try to bite it off and chew it but I realized that I have no teeth, and the meaty thing is just spraying milk every time I bite it, and that's how I survived through my hungry days. 

Everything was peaceful, I've grown accustomed to the feeding they do to me until I heard a loud boom and there was a lot of shaking, some screaming, crashing, it was chaos, I wish I could see what was going on, someone picked me up and wrapped me in a blanket and there was another shaking, maybe a giant rescued me and was running away from my kidnappers. 

Haha that was messed up, how can a giant exist anyway, since earlier I've been hearing a lot of roars everyone and then and screams, maybe the giant brought me to the movie centre and the showing of the Dinosaur World is already starting, nah even I won't believe that, because it's been a long time since I was kidnapped I'm not even surprised if there is a sequel to the movie now. 

My eyes have already started to adapt to the surroundings that I can already see even though it's blurred. 

There are also a lot of noises I've been hearing this entire time, I'm not really sure about the other languages that exists in our world but, I'm pretty sure that the noises that I've been hearing this entire time is spoken by tribes people, although I'm just 80% sure about it. 

I can also smell blood near me, maybe someone sprayed blood to the one who was carrying me or maybe it was my carrier's blood. I don't know because my vision is still 80% recovered. 

After a moment suddenly I heard a familiar voice, and strangely I can understand what he's saying.  

"There another underground village that collapsed huh" 

Although it was a little rough I can recognize this voice as we get along pretty well, it was my friend's voice which were the most timid and antisocial of our group. His name is Imo, he has dark skin and has normal physique and has 5'5 height. We get along pretty well since he always calls me his big bro. Even though I am only 1month older that he is. 

Finally after a while I opened my eyes I saw my friend but he looks a lot bigger than I remember him to be and suddenly realized that I can see clearly and tried to speak and by some miracle I can speak, although I was just mumbling, I was so excited that I screamed at the giant Imo. 

 

"HEY IMO!!!"

The mighty dinosaurs who roamed and ruled the earth for 65 millions of years were wiped out by the meteors... but here in the parallel side of the Earth... the meteor didn't came, in order to survive from the dinosaurs some of the humans decided to live underground to hide from the mighty reptiles.
