"Faith: A strong word and feeling"

Two girls living in different timelines, but connected as one. Have been chosen by two different Gods. 

Mazatl born in the past were the Gods were strong and visible. Living in a small village outside of Tenochtitlan, better known as the Aztec Empire. Chosen by the "Feathered Serpent". Honor is given and faith grown stronger
For sheep being born in modern day society that is not the case. A child of immigrants in America. Western ideas and beliefs shoved down her throat since birth. A god has been planted in her soul but another has taken her heart, none other than the "Smoking Mirror". 

Both have paths they must follow, but what if one was to lead a stray? What would happen to either if them? will a cycle end or start?

A god has been planted in her soul but another has taken her heart, none other than the "Obsidian Smoking Mirror". Sheep has been tasked by Tezcatlipoca to locate Quetzalcoatl.

Both have paths they must follow, but what if one was to lead a stray? What would happen to either if them? will a cycle end or start?

"Really?" Yun Jiuge exclaimed as her eyes lit up. She did not have many pets. Her Pipi Mouse previously was possessed by Cute Little Baby's consciousness, so it did not count.
Beside Mr. and Mrs. Treasure-hunting Scorpion, she was only left with the pink Mother Legendary Venomous Insect given to her by Jun Yichen.
Now that she had the opportunity to hatch the Mother Legendary Venomous Insect, she was certainly willing by all means.
"Of course," Zi Shang replied, feeling somewhat guilty when he saw Yun Jiuge so happy. The method that he taught was slightly savage. He hoped Yun Jiuge would not flip out.
"So, what do we have to do?" Yun Jiuge asked. She could not wait to take out the Mother Legendary Venomous Insect. A gentle light was radiating from inside the pink cocoon in her fair hands.
Zi Shang took the cocoon and under Yun Jiuge's expectant gaze, threw it over to the place with the most intense Fiendish Qi.
The pink cocoon streaked across like a meteor in front of Yun Jiuge and disappeared into the endless darkness. The Walking Corpses and evil spirits swarmed around like sharks sensing blood and overwhelmed the insect in an instant.
"Ahh! What are you doing!" Yun Jiuge screamed and turned around, wanting to rescue the Mother Legendary Venomous Insect.
Zi Shang grabbed Yun Jiuge by the shoulders and said in a composed manner, "Don't be anxious. Your Legendary Venomous Insect which should have hatched long ago was just lazy to come out. If you don't give it a little push, it'll really become a fossil."
"But you don't have to goad it this way! What if something happens?" Yun Jiuge replied.
"If something goes wrong, I'll save it," Zi Shang answered. He would not let anything happen to the Mother Legendary Venomous Insect.
"You'd better keep to your word," Yun Jiuge angrily responded. Her eyes anxiously stared at the center area swarming with Walking Corpses.
The original dark black fog suddenly undulated. A small vortex appeared out of thin air and expanded continuously. The whole space throbbed violently like angry waves in the sea.
The Walking Corpses were swept into the vortex and instantly torn to pieces before turning into black fog.
The place where the cocoon disappeared suddenly spewed out alternating black and white rays that lit up the whole space in an instant.
Next, a black-and-white butterfly flapped its wings and slowly flew up, circling over everyone's heads with a dizzying mist of light.
This butterfly was roughly the size of a palm, and its left side was pure black with a fine decorative design forming a vicious male devil's head. Its right side was pure white, but resembling the face of a kind-looking woman.
Right in the middle was a black colored body. Its head had the face of a delicate, cute girl. It was pouting its lips as if it was angry.
"A Reincarnated Yin-Yang Butterfly?" Zi Shang thought to himself. He raised his eyebrows and transmitted a message to Yun Jiuge saying, "Ahhh, lucky you. After this Legendary Venomous Insect absorbed Cute Little Baby's Demon Qi, it actually evolved into such a rare breed."
"What's so special about this Reincarnated Yin-Yang Butterfly?" Yun Jiuge asked, with her eyes fixated on the black-and-white butterfly.
"As the name implies, a Reincarnated Yin-Yang Butterfly can reverse the Qi of Yin and Yang. It can even create vitality in dead areas. It's a rare treasure. But yours is still quite young, so it can only deal with these Walking Corpses," Zi Shang replied flatly.
A fully evolved Reincarnated Yin-Yang Butterfly could create a small world in itself. It was the best Weapon Spirit to refine a miniature world but was also a favorite treasure of the powerful presence.
Yun Jiuge's eyes lit up and she hurriedly waved to the black-and-white butterfly as she said, "My darling, quickly come to Big Sister."
The black-and-white butterfly shot a glance at Yun Jiuge when it heard her call. It continued to pout and ignore her, still looking angry from being thrown out.
"My darling, don't be angry. Big Sister has candies for you," Yun Jiuge cajoled as she poured out two Cherry Pills onto her hand.
At this, the black-and-white butterfly landed satisfactorily on Yun Jiuge's hand. After it ate the Cherry Pills, it obediently rested on her shoulder. It was easily coaxed after all.
"Darling, you'll be called Feifei from now on!" Yun Jiuge said as she tenderly touched Feifei's little head.
Feifei flapped its black-and-white wings. It was very satisfied with the name.
"Miss Yun, can I ask what breed your butterfly is? Where can I find one?" Leng Hui asked as he looked at Feifei with excitement.
He had just seen with his own eyes how the small butterfly flapped its wings and the Fiendish Qi became a vortex. Those Walking Corpses and evil spirits were trapped inside the vortex and could not come out.
If he could have such a butterfly too, then he would not have to worry about Hui Kingdom being corroded by Fiendish Qi again.
"It's a Legendary Venomous Insect given to me by a friend. It's unlikely that there's another one in the world," Yun Jiuge replied while shaking her head.
Jun Yichen had bred so many Legendary Venomous Insects and only produced Feifei, the Mother Legendary Venomous Insect.
Moreover, during the process of spinning its cocoon, it was corroded by Pipi Mouse's Demon Qi. It was due to this fortuity that it developed into a Reincarnated Yin-Yang Butterfly. It would be difficult to recreate another.
"I see," Leng Hui uttered in extreme disappointment.
He wanted to buy this butterfly from Yun Jiuge. But when he saw how fond Yun Jiuge was of this butterfly, perhaps she would not part with this cherished pet. But he did not want to give up without asking.
Leng Hui was thinking about how to bring up the topic when Leng Bai pulled him over and pointed to the open space that emerged after the Fiendish Qi vanished, saying, "A thoroughfare has appeared."
A black ladder appeared in front of everyone.
"Let's go!" Yun Jiuge said excitedly as she waved.
The female Scorpion and Feifei had both gained benefits. It could be the Treasure-hunting Scorpion's turn in the next floor. She looked forward to this quite a bit!
Zi Shang swept his icy gaze across Leng Hui and his brothers before he took hold of Yun Jiuge's hand to get on the black ladder.
Leng Hui momentarily choked on his saliva. Zi Shang's gaze clearly warned them not to get any ideas.
"Big Brother, things are already good now," Leng Bai commented. He understood his oldest brother's intentions and he also very much wanted to have that amazing butterfly.
But he was well aware that their entire Hui Kingdom was not worth mentioning to these two foreign Cultivators. Angering them would only bring catastrophe.
"Okay," Leng Hui answered as he helplessly suppressed his idea and followed suit in going up the black ladder.
The seventh floor was a Labyrinth of Mirrors. Panels of incomparably smooth crystal mirrors filled up the entire space, as if there were countless figures staring back at them. It made them dizzy.
"How can we pass through this?" Yun Jiuge asked. She looked at the densely packed reflections of herself in the mirrors and felt goose bumps.
"Let me have a look," Zi Shang replied as he looked around to assess the situation.
"The sixth and seventh floors are both Labyrinths. These mirrors are formed by Fantasy Qi, so breaking them won't work. The only way to get through this is to find the right passageway," Leng Hui said.
The Labyrinth of Mirrors might have seemed simple, with the mirrors looking like they could be easily broken. But for it to appear on the sixth floor showed how complex a place it was.
If someone inexperienced were to blast the mirrors to pieces, he would immediately be taken back to the first floor. The Labyrinth would then also start to spread from the first floor. One would be trapped inside forever if one could not find a way out. This was one of the most complex obstacles in the tower.
"I hate walking in a Labyrinth," Yun Jiuge commented. She was most troubled by these paths that looked identical and not knowing whether to turn left or right.
"Take your Panic Grass out," Zi Shang instructed. He had already come up with a way.


She roused from a pool of blood, vowing to exact retribution on those who had harmed her. 
She slapped her despicable father and smacked his wicked concubines 
 She trampled on a two-faced girl who acted innocent but had a malicious heart, and pointed her sword towards the heartless man who was unworthy of her love. 
Countless beasts trembled in front of her cute pet, and her divine artifact intimidated even the Ninth Heaven. 
As soon as her Elixir  Furnace was lit up, the world came to kneel before her. 
Between him and her, it all started with a fair trade. Yet, the handsome demon ended up being obsessed with her. 
“Lay an egg for me, and I’ll promise you a peaceful life in any of the three realms!” He wrapped himself around her eagerly. 
“Leave me alone, and I’ll grant you a long life till eternity!” She pushed him away with a defiant laugh. 
 

The bonquet hall was one small hall but was decorated extravagantly in all white with white curtains, mirrors and other decorative hangings and it gave out a pure vibe. The dias was low and the entire hall was decorated with tulips, white roses and different kinds of lilies. The entire theme suited perfectly with the dresses of Abhi and Shriya.

The dias had an entrance which is made of beautiful flowers and leaves and the arch looked perfect for photoshoot. 

The entire hall was lit up with different kinds of LED lights and the entire ceiling was decorated with beautiful and bright lights and chandeliers.

 There were two big round tables which can accommodate atleast twelve persons each are present on either side of the   dias.  The tables have scented candles lit on them and gave a warm and a peaceful feeling. 

 Everyone gathered at the hall and was waiting for the people who are getting engaged there to arrive.

Sony wore the sky blue and baby pink sequence netted lehenga and she matched it with simple uncut diamond set and she looked so pure and perfect.

Gouthami wore the yellow and black lengths and she matched it with a pair of heavy golden junkies. She didn't wear any necklace and her hair was braided into a side bun decorated with flowers and she gave out a modern and a confident aura.

Brahmini wore a peach colored long dress and she wore only a pair or pink ear studs on her. Manvi wore the white saree with mirrors and she also had diamond hangings. Her hair was left loose and was put onto her one shoulder. She had her mangalsutr on her neck and it looked perfect and simple on her.

 Pumpkin wore the saffron colored long dress with a gold colored banaras jacket over it and she wore a pair of golden kundan ear studs and the dress matched her tomboy personality.

Pretti wore a mini version of Shriya's dress. A helper helper her dress up. She also wore the same kind of junkies but they are light in weight and she carried it with ease. Her hair was made into beautiful curls and let loose onto her shoulders  and she had a few pins on her hair and she looked super adorable and cute just like a little princess who walked out of the Disney land. 

She stood next to Gouthami and Rahul and fir some they looked like a perfect family. He kissed he cheek and said while pinching her small nose "My devil looks pretty today" and the little girl giggled happily. 

All the men kept their look simple by wearing a plain white shirt and a pair of jeans pants. All of them looked elegant. 

Atlast, under so many happy faces and expectations Shriya and Abhi came to the hall walking hand in hand.

The girls were surprised to see Shriya in that dress. They had no idea about the dress Abhi presented and even Shriya forgot to tell her friends as they were busy with the fair event before. 

Shriya looked at the people and around the hall and her smile stiffened. Though she recovered soon and smiled the smile didn't touch her eyes.

Abhi could sense the change in her and he didn't react to it. They walked towards the dais with bleaming smiles on their faces. 

They reached the dais and stood on it. There was also a purohit present there and the servants arranged two beautiful sankheda cushion stools for them to sit and one for the purohit. 

Shriya and Abhi sat on them and the purohit chanted few mantras and done some pooja. All the members occupied the two big tables which are just opposite to the dais and watched the ceremony. 

Vamshi and few other photographers stated their work by capturing every moment and recording it. 

After twenty minutes the pooja was done and it was almost time for them to exchange the rings. 

They stood up and everyone else also stood up and gathered near the dais. Shriya was happy and she enjoyed the moment. 

But when Abhi took the ring from Kunal's hand, her face. She constantly looked at the entrance expectantly. 

Abhi murmured in her ears in a concerned tone "You are looking at the entrance. Are you expecting someone. love ?".

She looked at him and said while nodding "Well, I am waiting for Naveem bhai. He said he will be here but he is not here yet."

Abhi nodded and looked at his watch. He then looked at the purohit and asked "How much time is there to exchange the rings".

He looked at Abhi with doubt but replied "Two minutes" and the latter nodded and said "Let's wait for them then".

She looked at him and was about to say something when two handsome men walked through the door.

Shriya was utterly happy and at the same time a bit surprised. She looked at her man surprised and then back at the two men and she couldn't believe her win eyes. She ran to them happily. 

Shriya walked upto Naveen who was smiling at her and was also apologizing while holding his ears as if he was about to do sit ups there  and said "Sorry, my flight was delayed".

She just nodded and smiled and Naveen whispered "Now go, or else boss will skin me out alive".

She then looked at the handsome man who was in a white plaid shirt with chinese collar and Khakis who was smiling at her with a beaming smile which made her eyes twinkle hearts. She hugged him and said "Thank you for coming here".

Everyone are shocked and Abhi was utterly shocked and felt speechless. He looked at his woman and the man beside her who was giggling at her like a happy kid.

Abhishek is a famous actor in India and is known for his sincerity at work place.  He is a  cold, mysterious and oof person. His first love is Shriya Sheren, who is an orphan. He follows her for almost three years , without her knolwedge.  

But he comes in front of her one day, seeing him she asks him "Aren't you the famous Actor Abhishek Malhotra, Are you the one who wants to spend the night with me."

Next morning Abhishek offered her coffee with a smile on his face and said " Last night you promised me  that you will let me take care of you." 

 Will she accept his proposal to stay with him. What happens if she decides to stay with him and what are her reasons to become a mistress all of a sudden..

How Abhi is going to be make her his women and what happens when he decided to stay with her for a long time. 

Will she be able to manage his high profile status and become worthy to be his girlfriend. 

How does her life change after she met that dream man  of all the girls in the entire country. 

Thought: "What you have left with is more important than what you have lost".

Adriana leaned forward, grabbed the notepad, pens, and the list Bo had made earlier, and handed them to him. Then she pulled the laptop onto her legs and opened the internet browser.
She typed what she wanted to know directly into the search bar. She scrolled through the list hoping to find a credible answer to her question.
"Look at this." She spoke quietly as she read through the information on the page she had opened about Lei Ting medallions.
The creator of the web page had a long list that contained pictures and explanations of the medallions Kaitlin had given her and Bo. It also showed several other medallions with several other inscriptions.
Most of the inscriptions were created for the same purposes as the ones she already had. As she scrolled through, Adriana saw one that was meant to shield the holder from seeing the dead.
Other than what they already had and the few oddballs, there was not a single inscription that would suit the purposes they were looking for. Everything they found was intended to shield, cast away, hide from, or protect one from the dead people in the Mirror Kingdom. None of them were created to converse with, or bring the dead to anyone.
Out of the corner of her eye, she saw Bo taking notes. When he finished writing down the name of the medallion and the magic it inflicted, Adriana clicked on the page that showed the items the owner sold.
There were several medallions of multiple different sizes that could be inscribed with whatever the buyer wanted. Some were large enough to be hung on the wall as a decorative ornament, while others were small enough to be put on a key chain.
There were also necklaces, bracelets, pendants, earrings, rings, and buttons available. Each one of the items had an option to be customized for the buyer's needs.
Adriana scrolled all the way back to the top of the web page and clicked on the tab labeled 'contact us'.
"It says... All items available are inscribed with the incantations that will keep you safe and secure. For inscriptions that are not readily available or incantations for other purposes fill in your contact information or call our customer care center during business hours." Adriana read aloud then filled in her name, number, and email address while Bo wrote down the customer care number.
"It's too late to call them tonight, but we can call them in the morning." He assured her.
"They'll think we're absolutely nuts for what we'll be asking for." She tried to give a small smile.
"Probably. Hopefully they'll be kind enough to customize something for what we need, or at least point us in the right direction of someone who can help us." He added quietly.
Adriana clicked the home button. In the search bar, she typed 'legends about the Mirror Kingdom', then pressed enter. The page loaded with hundreds of sources to go through.
Adriana knew that myths and legends had a way of getting twisted and turned every time they were repeated. She also knew that she would have to sift through the information and hope that something was true and relevant to their situation.
She clicked on the first link, hoping there would be something useful to be found. However, the page was mostly filled with pictures of broken mirrors and simple signs telling people to be aware of mirror dwellers.
Adriana clicked the back button, then clicked on the next page. The site she had landed on was a simple blog that told the same tales Kaitlin had shared, only in different words. Adriana filled in her email, and clicked the subscribe button hoping the writer of the blog would update with newer information that would help them.
She clicked the back button again and systematically went down the list. After going through more than four pages of the list, she found another blog that seemed to be more like a personal online journal rather than informational blog.
Adriana clicked on it and began reading the most recent post. It was simply titled 'Matter Of Glass'.
"Check this out, Bo." Adriana whispered as she leaned the screen back so they could both have a better view of the screen.
The writer claimed to have seen several people that were supposed to be dead. She also discussed her use of Lei Ting medallions to keep the spirits away.
The posts that were published prior to the first discussed a lot of what they already knew about people being attacked and the discoloration of the skin, followed by an unknown cause of death.
The blogger also went on to say that the type of glass was irrelevant. She had discovered that it wasn't necessarily mirrors that caused a problem. The glass of a window pane was just as much of an access point for the dead as a mirror was.
She also discussed ideas about the Mirror Kingdom not being exactly what the ancient Chinese civilization thought it was. She said perhaps it is a place for lost souls to find one another, rather than someplace for old souls to gather until they can rise up and destroy humanity.
Adriana scrolled back to the top of the page and subscribed to this blog as well. She also left a comment for the blogger with her email address attached.
"Hopefully she'll contact me. I think we need to find out where else this is happening." Adriana told Bo.
"I think you're right. The more help we have, the better our chances of figuring out how to stop the deaths and the kidnappings." He replied somberly.
"What should I look for now?" She asked him.
"To be honest, I have no idea." He said sounding slightly confused.
"Me neither." She replied, clicking the exit button at the top of the browser.
She closed the laptop and placed it back on the stand. She reached for the glasses of tea, handed Bo his glass and sipped from her own as she leaned back against him.
"I don't want to say anything that will upset you, but I have to ask... did Alison and Frankie have any family that needs to be contacted?" Bo asked sounding like he would rather be discussing anything else.
"Not anymore. Their parents died quite some years back. Their other brother died in a car crash a few years ago. And, their aunt Marcy died of a heart attack a few months ago." Adriana said with tears burning the back of her eyes.
Thunder boomed outside and rain began to patter the roof. They could hear the wind beginning to pick up speed, shaking the trees and the windows.
"My God. They've had it rough these past few years, haven't they?" Bo shook his head sadly, pulling Adriana closer to him.
"Yes, they have. It's horrible for such good people to lose everyone they love." Adriana tried to keep her tears at bay.
"No one deserves the things they've had to deal with. It tears me apart to know that they both had to die so young, too." The grief Bo had been trying to stifle was evident in the way his voice broke as he spoke.
"They're all each other had anymore." Adriana replied as tears spilled over her cheeks.

Glass doors opened. Shir Ali and Dara saw the luxurious setting of the restaurant. There were columns of mirrors. On the right side, near the white wall, there was a rather big aquarium, where fancy-looking fish swam. On the left side of the wall was a large panel with ancient Greek statues, made in plaster. But the eyes of the statues were gilded.

The ceiling of the restaurant was painted with paintings, landscapes of mountains, fields, rivers were painted there, and in the middle stood the Acropolis.

Dara just said - "what a wretched bad taste"!

Shir Ali - could not object to him!
The floor of the restaurant was covered in pink marble.
His legs were slipping. You could stretch out on it.
On the walls hung decorative trunks of grapes, with leaves and bunches covered with gilding.
A rich but tasteless restaurant.
The gift did not expect much from the restaurant.
Shir Ali invited him to sit at the table. The restaurant had about 20 tables. They were small, but for four people.
The chairs looked similar to the "Viennese", but made of plastic and aluminum with a leather substitute in the form of a seat. And it was already clearly cheap.
However, it was pleasing that the tables were clean, there were beautiful white porcelain vases in which beige napkins stuck out. It was an elegant pink porcelain salt shaker. But there was no menu.
Shir Ali and Dara. They sat for 10 minutes no one approached them. Dara made a wry smile, then Shir Ali went to the checkout counter and asked for a menu. After 5 minutes he was brought. It was a greasy black folder made of substitute leather, inside were heavily worn laminated sheets with photographs of dishes and prices were indicated. They were unexpectedly tall.
Shir Ali at that moment, regretted not believing his cousin.
The price for the pierzole was 600,000 blackbucks. It was one serving. And the prices for the rest of the dishes were higher than for the "pierzola". Since Shchir Ali wanted to bring his cousin to another restaurant, he needed to save. The second dish he could afford was Margherita pizza with tomatoes and two types of cheese. The price was only 200,000 black bucks.
The exchange rate was 1 US dollar = 20,000 black bucks for 2023.
The order has been placed.
After 5 minutes, the waiter brought free black tea in a small 125 ml Amurut glass and a small baking. To wait for the order was not so boring.
But dissatisfied with Dara, he drank a glass in a minute, and he did not like the cookie, it was dry and choked on it. Coughing. The mood was not very.
"Well, and for hell did we come here? We've been waiting for 20 minutes and nothing ..." ?!
"Cousin, don't be nervous, they brought tea!"
"Are you really Shir Ali, is that really tea?"
"Be patient, they will bring everything now!"
Really brought, it was Margarita pizza. She looked like a pancake, and thin. Very thin, the thickness of the pizza was not more than 5 mm. For the whole average pizza, there were only 7 thin slices of tomato. The cheese smelled not very good.
"Dara, how's the taste?"
"Well ... the cheese is not tasty, it has some kind of machine flavor, the cheese does not stretch, the dough burned in the back, the tomatoes are dry. This is not pizza, this is a pancake, and not the tastiest!"
"How much is ... is it worth it?"
"$ 10, somewhere ..." reluctantly shared information Shir Ali.
"Do you call yourself a foodie"? "Is there a burnt, tasteless and expensive pizza? Well, I congratulate you!" said Dara maliciously.
He was disappointed.
But they brought one portion of the pierzole, one for two. That is what Shir Ali did to save a little!
On white, large, porcelain plates, lay two coals on the bones wrapped at the end with foil. These were lamb cutlets, pierzola. In the photographs, this dish looked pinkish with a golden crust. Black embers lay on a plate in front of them. For a small pile of rice, no more than one tablespoon, half of some rolled up pancake and a medallion of tomato and cucumber.
Shir Ali was discouraged by the look, serving and design of this dish. It was clearly losing. But now he wanted to appreciate the taste itself ?! What is he like?
Taking a spoon with rice, Shir Ali tasted it. It was surprisingly dry, rice stuck into the sky, stuck between the teeth. There was no taste at all. It feels like he was eating soaked cardboard.
Yes, rice also failed. Tomato medallions, they had no taste, they didn't smell of tomatoes at all. And the cucumber was kind of slimy.
"Vile, yes"? Dara immediately put in. "I would have cooked better at home, and would not have asked you for 800,000 black bucks. To taste some tasteless food, you wiped out $ 40!"
"Well, I wanted to try, start a gourmet life ..." Shir Ali joked. He was surprised. the reviews were gorgeous by 5 stars, not a single bad!
"Well, what are we trying coals, now"? suggested Dara.
Pirzola ?!
The meat tasted fatty, tasty, but black, charred patches of meat crumbled on the teeth. The most delicious part was where the bone was covered with foil. There was not much meat on the bone. Therefore, two healthy men, did not ate completely two small "pierzola".
And the halves of pancakes in a tube did not have a pronounced taste at all, as if they were eating papers or cotton wool.
In fact, it was a plate of feta cheese, fried in palm oil.

"Well, brother ?! Money down the drain"? said Dara softly.
"For $ 40 we could take a full pilaf with meat of 348 grams, a salad of onions and tomatoes and salt each for a whole plate, we would order 3 puff and tandoori-baked pies with meat and onions. And also 1 teapot of long green tea "!
"And these coals, wet cardboard and cotton!"
Shir Ali, touched his chin with his hand and held down.
"And the reviews were pretty good," he said.
"Yes, you're right, money down the drain"!
"But don't be sad, we'll go straight from here to another restaurant, they serve amazing steaks from the chef!" wandered hungry cousin, Shir Ali.
But Dara continued to doubt ...

Around a 300-chapter novel is 250,000 words.

Bones leapt from my arms and slithered around the legs of a decorative table to the door. His tail sashayed as he slinked against its extravagant frame. Natural wood molding framed the sides with two curved pieces carved into cattails atop the entry. A cardinal sat majestically in between the two cattails. I was in awe at it's beauty and didn't dare move forward. The room smelled familiar but I couldn't quite place it. It was a flowery fragrance and brought back memories of home. The image of my mother spending long Summer days tending to her gardenias came forth to my mind. It left me quickly as I noticed Bones scratching at the elegant door. 

"Don't do that," I said crossing the room, "Your claws will leave marks." I guess it doesn't really matter though since this is my dream anyway. I scooped him up just as the large door swung open. A man, Arkis, met my eyes. His handsome face a perfect replica of the photos on his profile. Damn my memory is good. I stood hunched over gawking at his gorgeous blue eyes. He peered into mine then lowered his gaze to Bones. My heart twinged at the awkwardness. 

"That is the cutest cat I've ever seen. I had no idea we were bring pets or I would have brought my cat Bravo. Can I pet him," he said excitedly, his voice deep and endearing. He reached for my cat, who hopped freely into his arms. 

"Um...hi." I fumbled, standing straight up. A knowing smile spread across his face as he pet Bones. He stepped to the side inviting me in. My body moved stiffly, hand over foot, hand over foot.
Then the door shut behind us. I now stood in a large suit. Off the the side I could see a set of French doors left open to see a large king side bed.  In front of me a sitting room with frilly furniture and the other side a kitchen. The kitchen extended out into a dining area where another set of French doors led out to a balcony. My brain felt overwhelmed.

"How was your trip?" He asked letting Bones down. Arkis turned to face me but my eyes were still locked on my little traitor. Words had left me. 

"Since she seems unable to answer I will, our trip was fine." The cat spoke in a monotone voice. The cat can talk. A cat can speak. Speaketh doth the cat. 

"I don't think she knew you could speak my friend. You're scaring her look at her face. She's gone pale." Arkis scolded the talking cat. My talking cat. 

"He talks. Since when does he talk? This is the weirdest dream of my life. I need to wake up from this dream." I pinched my arm fiercely. Pain. Arkis reaches for my hand swiftly. A deep red mark was left behind. It would probably bruise.

"Don't do that. He can't normally talk. Don't freak out." He calmed though it didn't really do anything.

"He just talked. I passed through a mirror from my apartment and came to an elevator. It's a dream. Tell me this is a dream. You can't walk through mirrors with your talking cat sidekick. That's like not a thing right." Word vomit spewed from my mouth. There was no controlling it's spillage as I began to process.

"It's not a dream. Though I am dreamy," he snickered, I glared at him, "Right not the time for flirting. Your cat can't like speak English. He's just speak in his native tongue. My home has the latest translation technology. I am also not speaking English but I sound like I am. Listen to me carefully, I know you're a little bit confused since this is your first time using Portal."

"Confused!? The cats talking and you're telling me I'm confused. My mind is blown. Translation technology, I've never even heard of that." I interrupted. He stood quietly for a moment. The gently he took my hand and guided me to sit on one of the chair in the living area. He placed a small blanket on my lap. Maybe he thought I was cold because I was shaking so much. Then he took his seat next to mine. A small table sat between us holding a small fake plant. I looked around for Bones but he had run off somewhere to hide.

"Well the cat talking isn't the only big change for you. Right now we aren't on Earth," he paused long enough for my face to shift though several emotions, "Portal allows users to meet people from different planets. You are on Nova. That is my home world. Nova is also the base world for Portal. If you read the terms and conditions it would give you all this information. I mean seriously what's with Earthlings." He fell silent. I suppose it was so I could process things.nothing he said really made sense to me. Maybe he's delusional. Can I even trust this guy?

"No one reads the terms and conditions. Anyone who says the do is a bold face liar. Why would you put it there. Who wants to sift through eight pages of legal jargon. No thanks." I spoke calmly. His eyes glistened under the bright sun. No suns. I could see the outline of two in the distance, though I didn't  look directly at them.

"If you read it in this instance it might have saved you some trouble." He flashed a sarcastic smile. My heart fluttered for just a moment but my skepticism returned. Something about him made me want to trust him. He was extremely charismatic and that is a quality I really like in men.

"So like, if that's true how do I get home?" Now somewhat worried this would be a long term thing. I still had to finish my rough draft for the article and rent was due soon. 

"You just click return home on your app. Don't worry I'll walk you though if. I understand if you want to reschedule since you seem a little bit overwhelmed by everything." He said confidently.

Portal was the latest dating app created worlds away that allows its users to connect on a modern level.

Ren could feel a spine-tingling sensation as the Goddess of Light glared at him. It has been quite a long time since he felt this sense of danger. The last time he felt this indescribable feeling of dread was back when he fought the ORIGIN. Ren who felt his body shivering in both fear and excitement couldn't help but smile that vicious smile of his. Ren's shadow started to expand as multiple spears came out from it.  
Ren infused his mana into the spears and with his total control made the spears levitate beside him. Ren then quickly pushed the spears forward making them dart towards the Goddess of Light. The speed of the spears were five times faster than the speed of sound.  
The Goddess of Light looked at the incoming spears with disdain, and the moment they were about to hit her, the spears phased through her body. In the eyes of others, the Goddess of Light didn't move as the spears simply went through her body, on the other hand, Ren saw something different. The Goddess of Light moved so fast that she was able to dodge the spears with minimum movement and quickly returned to her original spot. She moved so fast that her dodging looked like she was just standing there.  
Ren couldn't help himself as the smile on his face grew wider. Ren used his mana control to make the spears that went past the Goddess of Light come back, while he charged forward. Ren alongside the floating spears attacked the Goddess of Light. Ren didn't give the Goddess of Light any leeway as he attacked in all directions. Yet the same as before the Goddess of Light evaded each strike with the same minimal movement.  
"Hmph, can't you see that kind of attack won't even hit me?"  
"Is that so?"  
When the Goddess of Light heard Ren's reply, she finally noticed that her cheek had a little cut on it. She was truly surprised to see that she got damaged. Even without dodging, there were only a few types of mortal weapons that could harm her, the only reason she was dodging now was to show Ren the disparity between them. Yet now that she saw that Ren's weapons could actually harm her she felt a little relieved that she was dodging those strikes.  
"Heh, so even deities bleed."
When the Goddess of Light heard what Ren said she grew even more infuriated. As Ren was about to begin his assault again, the Goddess of Light lifted her hands and pointed at mirrors on the walls. A burst of light came flying out of her fingers hitting the nearby mirrors. The light then bounced from mirror to mirror creating a web of light that disintegrated the floating spears.  
It was a good thing that Ren was able to guess beforehand why there were mirrors on the wall, in a room that had nothing but decorations that could show one's reflection. The moment Ren saw that burst of light he quickly summoned numerous shields from his shadow which covered him, and he did the same for Lara and the others who were at the corner of the room.  
The power of that one burst of light almost broke his shields. Just two more strikes like that and Ren's stock of shields would be depleted. So before the Goddess of Light could make her next move, Ren quickly summoned several dozens of weapons which he immediately threw at all the mirrors and decorative pieces in the room.  
"Hmph, so you're not just a brute, you can actually use your head. Still, that won't be enough to defeat me."
After she said those words the Goddess of Light's hands started to blur as several bursts of light came flying towards Ren. Despite the attacks being literally as fast as light, Ren was able to dodge every single beam. As he was about ready to counterattack, Ren suddenly lost his sight. Still, even without his sight, Ren could sense the area around him. As he was confused as to what happened he heard the Goddess of Light's voice.
"Do you understand now, unlike your title Strongest Mortal Soul, the title of Goddess of Light isn't just for show. As a world deity, I have the power of law on my side, as I can control this world's light. For as long as you're a being that exists in this world, I can plunge you into the darkness. This is the end for you, well it's not like I expected you to do any better. Well, even though you're about to die now, you should be proud that you were able to wound me."  
The Goddess of Light then fired multiple bursts of light towards Ren. She was expecting Ren to die with that assault, but to her surprise even without being able to see Ren was able to dodge all the beams of light. The Goddess of Light then continued her assault but Ren was still able to dodge. After a while, the Goddess of Light who was unable to hit Ren returned the light of his eyes.  
That ability of hers that takes one's light uses too much divine power and since it wasn't working the way she wanted it to, she deactivated it.  
Ren who was able to see again smiled. After those exchanges, it would seem that the two were at a stalemate. Ren and the Goddess of Light were having difficulty hitting each other, and it would seem that they were evenly matched to those who were watching. 
Yet the truth was Ren was on the losing side. In that brief exchange between him and the Goddess of Light, Ren could already guess how the battle was going to end. Even with his spiritual energy and his physical body getting stronger every second, Ren knew that with his current abilities the Goddess of Light wasn't someone he could defeat using such half-ass means.
 Ren then looked at Lara and did some cryptic hand signals. When Lara saw Ren's hand signals she nodded her head. Seeing Lara's response Ren looked at the Goddess of Light while gathering all the mana he had. He even used his Spirit Aura to the very limit of what he cand produce.  
"As expected of a deity, you're harder to deal with than I thought. Still, even you would get hurt if you're hit by this." Ren gathered everything he currently had into Snertal.
