IRIS SAGA #3


"It was 1989 when the memories of our species have been eradicated. That war was the last big war between IRIS people the world of humans had seen. And ever since then, everything has been quiet."

Post-World War two, the world saw potential threat to the species called the IRIS. Infamous for their supernatural abilities exploited in the two major wars, the world has been living in fear and treating them like devils. And Morgan Cainox ought to change that.

Together with the woman he bought from an auction who was a byproduct of an IRIS laboratory experiment, they created a small team called Aemori to start a revolution to free the IRIS race from humans. Only the woman- who was named Annika discovered who was the real threat as Morgan Cainox chose the path of wanting to be as powerful as a god.

Obsessions (tyrant x Y/N) by marichatchat

In this land there are two categories of people, normal humans like the readers and writers of this story and then those who can see the magic and evil. There are animals but there are also magical creatures, some good, some bad and some that are just there. You always stood out from the rest. You had the eyes that held the power to see these creatures. Bright yellowish gold eyes and people were scared of you. They were scared because you were above all of them. Your parents owned this old fashioned city. It was a village the size of a city and it had some modern technology mixed with no technology. You had no friends for for so long and people always bullied you probably because they were scared of you. They didn't know of the magical side of the land. They didn't know that some people can see it. They would only see the creatures if they made themselves seeable. Everything was normal one day, people treating you like trash and you running crying to your mom. But your parents had gotten you something that they know nothing about or take care of but they put the responsibility in your 10 year old hands.

Anito Anarchy by enyeenjee

According to folklore, obscure forces secretly live among us, shaping the natural world and influencing human affairs. Some call them spirits, others refer to them as guardians, and some even worship them as gods. But to the old and wise, those who understand what lies beyond this world, they are simply called "Anito." If you were to tell this tale to Makisig "Maki" Kagiwa, a 15-year-old high school student, he would dismiss it as nothing more than a silly superstition. Living in a bustling modern city, Maki views old beliefs as outdated stories with no place in reality. But his skepticism will be put to the test when he encounters the paranormal firsthand. What will he do when he realizes that the creatures and monsters from long-forgotten legends truly exist in the modern world? Will he become a believer before it's too late? Or will his doubts cost him dearly when he and his older brother find themselves hunted by otherworldly beings---creatures whose motives remain a deadly mystery? *** Out of nowhere, an ominous creature in a tailored suit lunged at me, claws swiping through the air. I stumbled backward to avoid the attack and lost my balance. The creature shrieked and dove toward me, but I managed to block its claws with my baseball bat. Face-to-face with this monstrosity, panic and exhaustion took hold. Its grotesque features triggered a primal terror I had never experienced before. I lay flat on the ground, clutching the bat like a lifeline. The other creatures seized the opportunity, racing toward me with murderous intent etched on their twisted faces. My blood ran cold as I saw them close in, clawing and slashing at me from all angles. A scream tore from my throat as something sharp punctured my stomach. My life flashed before my eyes, just as people always said it would in the face of death. I couldn't believe this was how my life would end---devoured by creatures wrapped in inscrutable mystery. *** Note: This story is written in English.

Avarice Blacksteel Book 2 by Xonereth

Most of us long to "Be" but when the path gets too costly, or steep, we take solace in what we "Have." Remove the trappings of what we own and then what is the sum of us? They were the survivors, abandoned by the allies who swore to protect, in the ultimate gesture of greed and betrayal. Their world plunged into annihilation and chaos. With the passage of years in this blighted landscape order was established anew. Those who had been anonymous before the war found their will to rule, those who had experienced the comforts and ease of western life, thrust into darkness and despair. This brutal conflict had awoken those long sleeping, those who had ceased to care, those of immense power, the ones entrusted with the safe keeping of the often volatile mankind. Although their parallel world too was at risk, lethargy and arrogance ruled them. Against the backdrop of this savage landscape the saga of three such tribes of survivors unfold, and the unwitting chosen among them. One tribe sought to prosper via savagery, one by organized military might, and the other who ruled with no more than fairness and love. Three tribes thrown together, competing for the limited resources to survive, in a world teetering on the brink of total decimation. Driven by human avarice.

Until one day, the Mad Angel King decided to ruin it all.

With his wish conceded, the Mad Angel King took all of the angels to the island. But he wasn't satisfied. The thought of having all of the impure creatures right below their feet horrified him. He had to get rid of them all. A war began. No side was able to surpass the other and when the Mad Angel King was killed, the war that had been going on for centuries was finally over.

Golden Wings by itmeartemis

[CURRENTLY BEING H E A V I L Y REVISED AS A NEAR COMPLETE DIFFERENT STORY] "Over a millennia ago, before the portals to the Earth were sealed off, the Angels and their darker brethren went to war. The Dark Angels had gone down to the realm of Earth and were possessing humans for the thrill of it. But wherever they went, damage was spread. Families were torn apart, people were caught doing immoral acts, and many humans lost their lives to the Dark Angels carelessness. The war lasted many, many years, but after a long and painful struggle, the Dark Angels were vanquished. They were banished to the realm of Gehenna and the portals between Earth and The Blue were sealed off. The woman who had defeated the Dark Angels, the one who had banished them and later sealed off the portals, was Alexandrine James, and after she won she was named Queen of The Blue." If you had a second chance... would you take it? If you could live again... would you? Even if you had to leave your family? Leave your home? Even if you had to die? [The revision I'm working on is /very/ different plot wise, so it's likely that I will leave this version of the story up even after I complete the new revision- but just be aware that there's a more competent version of this story in the works. ]
