The four had not met each other in 4 months. No war, no plague happened, starvation and obesity rates were declining rapidly. Not many deaths happened, but not many births happened. A sense of unease was happening with the world.
Kemburaskia sat alone in her throne as Gregor, her assistant, bowed and walked up to her.
"How's the humbleness coming along?" Gregor chuckled.
"Is far worse than humbleness." Kemburaskia mumbled under her breath. Gregor grinned widely.
"You know what I always loved?"
"Baffle me."
"Sommers made you into a warrior but then wanted to change you into a wise man. And this is what he made."
"Sommers found me dead in the hospital, I was his creation."
The four horsemen, War, Famine, Pestilence, and Death, have been the ones to make the evil spread and destroy the world when it is the right time. Yet do you know who they truly are? Are they just mythical gods sitting on their asses trying to make everyone's life a living hell? Maybe, they're people, who roam the street as you do. Who drive cars and travel places as you do.
And you would never bat an eye, would you?

He asked and I looked up at his eyes. I didn't have to ponder over the matter long. "I don't know." I said softly. Daimen frowned and studied me for a while, "Just wondering, because you seem to love pissing me off. And most people don't. So I guess you need some figuring out to do." ********* Daimen and River were both seniors at the same high school, they took some of the same classes, walked the same halls, live in fair distance from each other, but they couldn't have been more different. When high school was over River and Daimen became ghosts to each other but then years later fate decides to bring them back together. River Sparrow hates confrontation. She's jumpy, but tries to see the bright side of situations. She's quiet, soft spoken, the "teacher's pet," and keeps to herself a lot. She's a volunteer at the local animal shelter and loves one dog in particular the most. Daimen Princeston would fight in a heartbeat. He's strong, intimidating, and pretty much has people running for the hills at the very aspect of him getting angry. His devil-may-care attitude swirls around him and no one wants to get on his bad side. Of course River is afraid of him, and she has a good right to be. But when River starts to learn more of the young man everyone fears she starts to see him in a new way. After some time feelings grow stronger and she hopes she's not fallen for a murderer. And if she has, who is she to deny him the love he so desperately needs?Complete

A Country Life
Three hundred years after the fall, the known world is beginning to regain a semblance of order, with the sword the ultimate power once more. But not everything of old was lost, and there are some that will exert deadly effort to obtain what was left behind. Orphaned, plague-marked and mistrusted by the community he lives in, a boy must come to terms with the fact that he is different from everyone else, but is soon the focus of unwelcome and deadly attention. Separated from her father, a young girl has to learn to survive in a foreign land haunted by tribes of ghosts and roving bands of piratical thralls to a sadistic King. A watcher keeps lonely vigil from within a fortress that has been under siege for hundreds of years, while a soldier dies for the twenty-third time, and dies again while wondering if he is going mad.

Born In Hell (Book II)
Kids are such a joy aren't they. You know 2 grandkids of Lucifer with 2 more on the way, 2 hardheaded smartasses that came from king dumbass himself, 1 of death, 2 of war and 2 of the enemy. Joyous right? Yeah, so let's have a little reunion. It's been years since they've all been in one place. Might as well get the band back together. I know you'll miss me narrating the whole shindig, but I have to give the kids a chance, because shit is about to hit the fan. I'm not talking about the soft shit, I'm talking the messy kind, that is out of control. The kind that leaves you with love, hate and confusion. That's all I can say, you'll have to find out for yourself to see what happens. Oh did I forget to mention they have no idea of the power they hold? -------------------------- "You told her?!" I flinched at mom's tone. "Kali- wow," Belle breathed when she turned to see her sister gone. "Kali told her, not me." Ma's hands were shaking at her sides. I've never actually seen her get mad to that point before. Now she looked like she wanted to fight, but she always tells me not to. I really want to see how this plays out since she's war and all. "Should I tell Uri, or Nasima, or should I feed the twins to fire and let the rest find them?" Belle's eyes literally turned a shade darker in green. "You wouldn't like it, so why didn't you stop Kali?"Complete
They Call Me Daring
Let's get one thing straight here, I'm not a hero (I totally am, but I hear that these days being modest is in fashion or something, so I don't know man). I never planned on being a hero. It kind of just happened. Clark's the bigshot. The fame, the girls, the attention. Me? I'm just his loser younger brother. Another rich Trackerson kid, but that quiet one with no personality. I'm kidding. I'm funny. I promise. I have to be. The name's Liam. The apocalypse wasn't easy on anyone, but it was harder on some. We made it okay. My family lives in a mansion, and we basically run this town. I come from a line of famous zombie-hunters. Not me, though. I kind of suck. I was never supposed to get bitten. I'm running out of time. I'm turning, and it's happening fast. People are rising up, feuds are breaking out, the world is ending all over again; and it's all up to me to stop it. Or something. Crazy, right? Anyway, I've got to go. I guess the good part is, if they find out my secret-if they kill me-at least not many people are going to miss me. I just hope they get my name right. L-I-A-M. It's not hard. Please, for the love of humanity, remember my name. Whatever they call me after all this, remember my name.Complete
