Birthday Na Status

MASKARA

Tik tak. Tik tak. Tanging tunog ng orasan ang nangingibabaw sa tahimik na bahay—isang tahimik na nakakabingi, na para bang bumabalot sa bawat sulok ng silid. Parang musika ito ng kawalan, ngunit imbes na paginhawahin, lalo lamang nitong pinapalakas ang kabog ng aking dibdib. Tik tak. Parang pinipiga ang aking puso, bawat segundo, bawat saglit, paulit-ulit, na tila pinapaalala ang bigat na matagal ko nang dinadala. Hindi ko na kayang pigilan pa. Kumawala na ang aking mga luha, kasabay ng hiningang tila mabigat na bato sa aking dibdib. Bumagsak ang mga patak na parang ulan sa pisngi kong hindi na sanay ngumiti. Minsan naiisip ko, paano nga ba ako napunta sa ganitong sitwasyon? Ang sakit—nakakapaso, nakakasakal—hindi ito basta lungkot lang, kundi isang matinding kalungkutan na nagpapahina sa aking mga tuhod. Araw-araw, pilit akong bumabangon, pilit tinatawid ang mga oras, pero habang ginagawa ko ito, lalong lumalalim ang sugat. Nasasaktan ako, hindi lamang dahil sa mga nangyari, kundi dahil sa awa ko sa aking sarili. Sino ba namang hindi maaawa kung araw-araw, pinipilit kong ngumiti kahit wala nang natitirang dahilan para sumaya? Ngunit kahit anong mangyari, kahit anong sakit ang idulot nito, isa lang ang sigurado ko: Ikaw at ikaw lamang ang aking mamahalin. Walang makakapalit sa'yo. Sa kabila ng lahat, sa kabila ng mga gabing binubulabog ng tahimik na pag-iyak, ikaw pa rin ang laman ng puso kong durog na durog na. Hays… Nawa’y dumating ang araw na ang tik tak ng orasan ay maging musika ng pag-asa. Pero sa ngayon, ito muna ang aking mundo—isang tahimik na silid, isang pusong nagdurugo, at isang pagmamahal na kahit kailan ay hindi ko kayang bitawan.

Maximum Status.

Leered was part of the first generation of "Heroes", since it was his generation that learned to improve the new abilities and characteristics that had arrived to his world during the time known as "the new beginning". Portals and enormous power crystals had arrived on planet earth, which emanated certain energy with overwhelming force. These "convergences" affected the terrain and in turn gave way to the spontaneous transfer/creation of various creatures, places and abilities, to which magical explanations were given. While at first this chaos resulted in a world at war, little by little the abilities that had awakened in humans, the new intelligent races that arrived on the planet and the constant expansion of the terrain thanks to the portals, gave way to understanding between species. This led to the formation of the first generation of Heroes, elite units of each race, which were trained for combat against the beasts of the convergence and, in the beginning, the arrival of an era of peace, this organization and their summoned were known at the time as heroes. What differentiates a companion from a mere weapon, power, when you become so strong that those you considered brothers begin to see you as a threat to the point of betrayal something has to be done. What would you choose if given a new opportunity? Leered is faced with this question, a lifetime dedicated to conflict and duty, a lifetime lived in order to become stronger, when presented with the opportunity to move on and leave this behind, will he choose to start over or will he seek answers?

Leered fue parte de la primera generación de “Héroes”, pues fue su generación la que aprendió a mejorar las nuevas habilidades y características que habían llegado a su mundo durante la época conocida como “el nuevo inicio”. Al planeta tierra habían llegado portales y enormes cristales de poder, los cuales emanaba con una fuerza arrolladora cierta energía. Estas “convergencias” afectaron el terreno y a su vez dieron paso al traslado/creación espontánea de diversas criaturas, lugares y habilidades, a las cuales se les dieron explicaciones mágicas. Si bien en un principio este caos dio como resultado un mundo en guerra, poco a poco las habilidades que habían despertado en los humanos, las nuevas razas inteligentes que llegaron al planeta y la constante expansión del terreno gracias a los portales, dieron paso al entendimiento entre las especies. Esto llevó a la formación de la primera generación de Héroes, unidades de élite de cada raza, los cuales estaban entrenados para el combate contra las bestias de la convergencia y, en un principio, la llegada de una época de paz, a esta organización y a sus convocados se les conoció en su momento como héroes. ¿Que diferencia a un compañero de una simple arma?, el poder, cuando te vuelves tan fuerte que aquellos que consideraste hermanos empiezan a verte como una amenaza al punto de llegar a la traición. ¿Qué elegirías si se te da una nueva oportunidad? Leered se enfrenta a esta pregunta, toda una vida dedicada al conflicto y el deber, toda una vida vivida con el fin de volverse más fuerte, cuando se le presenta la oportunidad de seguir y dejar esto atrás, ¿elegirá comenzar de nuevo o buscará respuestas?

I heard him ask taking me off my thoughts. "Huh?" "You were smiling." "Oh. I was...." "Can I kiss you?" He asked looking at my lips. "Here?" I asked now, my heart beating hard against my chest, our first kiss could happen now. "Yeah?" He nodded, I could see his Adam's apple go up and down as he swallowed, I bit my lips, nervously. I smiled approvingly, almost getting up from the bench where I sat. "No sit." He said coming closer to sit next to me. The bench was quite small so we were so close to each other. He leaned in and I could smell him more the closer he got to my face. His lips were now inches away from mine and the moment they touched I closed my eyes, I didn't know why but I did. He didn't put his tongue in my mouth, it was as simple as it could get, just a warm kiss and I as glad he didn't. When he lips left mine, I opened my eyes licking my lips. He was smiling, I hadn't yet told him how much I loved his smile. "You lied." I told him. "About what?" He stopped smiling. "You said you were a bad kisser." He laughed now with his teeth showing, those beautiful set. Read more... #genka3na

Chains Of The Crescent Moon

Set in a rich, fictional world where two vastly different kingdoms collide, Chains of the Crescent Moon weaves a tale of rebellion, forbidden love, and the fight for freedom. In the opulent Western kingdom of Luthadel, Prince Alden Roderic wrestles with his duty to uphold the traditions of a corrupt monarchy, including the brutal enslavement of conquered people. Torn between his role as heir and his growing disillusionment with the kingdom’s cruelty, Alden finds himself at a crossroads when he encounters Na-na, a fierce warrior princess from the fallen Eastern empire of Eryndor. Marked by a crescent moon tattoo symbolizing her royal lineage, Na-na is captured and enslaved after her homeland is destroyed. Their worlds couldn’t be more different. Na-na’s fiery spirit and refusal to submit challenge everything Alden has ever known, while Alden’s quiet strength forces Na-na to confront her own prejudices about the enemy she swore to hate. As a language barrier and deep-seated cultural divides threaten to keep them apart, they reluctantly form an alliance to dismantle the oppressive systems that enslave their people. Meanwhile, a parallel story unfolds in the distant East, where General Xian Feng, a cunning strategist from Na-na’s homeland, orchestrates a rebellion to reclaim Eryndor’s lost glory. Xian’s fate becomes intertwined with the Western kingdom when he discovers a dangerous secret buried deep within the heart of Luthadel—a secret that could either ignite a revolution or destroy both kingdoms entirely. As Alden and Na-na’s relationship deepens, their shared vision for justice propels them into a battle not just against a tyrannical regime but against the prejudices and traditions that have defined their lives.

Will they succeed in uniting two fractured kingdoms, or will the chains of their past drag them into ruin?
