After The Rain Op

Later that day, Fin was out on his usual scrap run. The safe zone’s edge was a mess of twisted metal and broken concrete, leftovers from when the first Gates opened. He lugged a heavy bag over his shoulder, his boots crunching on gravel. The air smelled like rust and something faintly sour—probably a dead rat or worse. “Yo, Fin! Hurry it up!” his boss, Greg, yelled from the truck parked a hundred yards away. Greg was a squat, sweaty guy who acted like he was king of the scrap heap. “We ain’t got all day!” “Yeah, yeah,” Fin muttered under his breath. He bent down to grab a jagged piece of rebar, his fingers brushing the cold metal. His power kicked in—useless as ever. He could feel every nick and dent in the steel, like it was whispering its boring life story to him. 'Wow, so thrilling,' he thought sarcastically. That’s when he heard it—a low, guttural growl. He froze. His head snapped up, eyes darting around. The safe zone wasn’t *supposed* to have monsters. That’s why it was called safe. But the sound came again, closer this time, from behind a pile of rubble. “Greg?” He called, his voice shaky. “You hear that?” No answer. The truck’s engine roared to life—Greg was bailing. “Fin, move your ass!” the man shouted before peeling out, dust kicking up behind him. “Seriously?!” Fin dropped the rebar and bolted. He wasn’t a runner, but fear made his legs move faster than he thought possible. The growling turned into a snarl, and he risked a glance back. Something big and scaly was charging after him—green skin, claws like kitchen knives, and a mouth full of teeth that didn’t fit right. A monster. A freaking monster.

It was the season of rain when I first heard those melodies. Under the drenching sky, I was counting the sorrows of my life, While someone else was embracing each moment of theirs with the falling raindrops. And then, that voice... Soft, yet reaching straight to the heart- "Live, for life is but one-stay happy and spread it around. We are companions in this journey till death... Just give me your hand..." There was something magical in those words. It felt as if the rain had touched my sorrows, As if someone had called my name, As if an unseen hand was pulling me out of the darkness..

Kicked out of the pack? Check! Omega? Check! Underestimated ability? Double check! Xavier Black was the weakest omega in the game, and on top of that, he was a male omega, something considered rare in a world dominated by female alphas.

However, a million years have passed without the birth of a single holy being, and no one knows what became of the previous ones. There are whispers that the royal families have slain them all and that the gods are punishing humanity—condemning them to suffer in an era where holiness has lost its power. The oracles have lost sight, and demons and the undead have begun their conquest. The youngest prince of the Valgulas Empire, Emrey, finds himself amidst this chaos. As demons and the undead conquer lands, desperation drives humans to embrace demonic powers in a bid to obliterate their foes.

But just as the war reaches its breaking point, the heavens open, and the rain begin to fall. “Salvation!” the people cry. “The gods have finally heard our prayers!” Yet, as they rejoice in newfound hope, the rain gives way to a river of blood flowing into the abyss. In a world where the divine is both a curse and a salvation, Emrey must navigate treacherous alliances, confront his own ambitions, and ultimately face the path that could lead him to become a God—or the harbinger of further destruction. Rain of Divinity is the first book in the Beyond the Clouds series. Each book will have 600 chapters.

November 17th. A day that should have been ordinary became the day the world fell apart. The Collapse—a disaster unlike any other—destroyed over 80% of the population in a single stroke. Entire cities were reduced to ruins, the rules of nature were rewritten, and strange, otherworldly forces began to seep into the cracks of reality. Those who survived were left to navigate a world where power comes at a price, and despair looms around every corner. Silas Grayson was a man who always preferred the background, someone who never sought the limelight. But when the Collapse shattered the world, it shattered Silas’s quiet existence, too. Now, in a reality that demands action, he must navigate a landscape where ruins grant strange Authorities, rulers thrive on corruption, and whispers of beings far beyond human understanding begin to surface. As he ventures deeper into this harsh new world, Silas clings to hope—a fragile, flickering light in the darkness. But when despair threatens to crush even that, he must grapple with the question: How does a man hold on to hope in a world that seems designed to take it away? The Collapse didn’t just destroy the world—it created a new one. And surviving it will demand more than Silas ever thought he could give.

In a world where past and present intertwine, Isla's reality fractures with the utterance of a forgotten name: Isolde. It's a name that unlocks a torrent of vivid, unsettling memories, binding her to an ancient conflict and a malevolent force named Thane. He claims her as his, plunging her into a desperate struggle against a darkness that threatens to consume not just her, but the very fabric of her world. With Kai, her steadfast protector, Isla seeks refuge, but sanctuary proves fleeting. They are hunted, their every move shadowed by unseen eyes, their refuge a fragile illusion against encroaching dread. The deeper they delve, the more they uncover: ancient prophecies, hidden sanctuaries, and the legacy of Elara, a powerful ancestor whose blood flows through Isla's veins. Betrayal strikes from within, shattering their trust and casting them into a labyrinth of subterranean tunnels, where ancient forges whisper tales of forgotten battles. Here, they learn to wield their inherited powers, forging weapons of light against the encroaching shadows. In a climactic confrontation, they face Thane in his obsidian throne room, a battleground where light clashes with overwhelming darkness. Despite their courage, Thane seizes the amulet, a conduit of ancient power, threatening to unleash its corrupted energy. Yet, Elara's spirit, defiant and unyielding, resists, offering a fragile glimmer of hope. Isla and Kai, battered but unbroken, stand against the encroaching darkness, their fates irrevocably intertwined with the echoes of a shattered queen. They must confront not only Thane, but the fractured fragments of their own pasts, the lingering whispers of betrayal, and the terrifying possibility that the light they carry may not be enough to extinguish the encroaching shadows. The final battle looms, where the very essence of memory and identity will be tested, and the fate of their world hangs precariously in the balance.

VA: DIAMOND TO RAIN follows Satou Senji, a young student who roams the streets of Japan at night, exploring abandoned places and encountering other individuals who, like him, feel like outcasts in society. Set in 2009, the story dives deep into the lives of misfits—people who are disconnected from mainstream society, each with their own struggles and reasons for feeling like they don’t belong. Satou’s solitary hobby of wandering at night brings him into contact with a diverse group of people, each with their own backstory. Along the way, he meets several girls who, like him, have chosen to stay away from society or are living in isolation due to trauma, societal rejection, or personal choices.

One of the key figures in Satou's journey is Kanako Ryoyo, a 19-year-old girl who is a victim of human trafficking. She’s tough, cold, and emotionally guarded, but after escaping her captors, she ends up hiding in an abandoned asylum, where Satou first finds her. Their connection grows as Satou helps her find refuge at his home. Kanako is a complex character—nonchalant and blunt on the outside, yet deeply affectionate in her own way. Her trauma, mixed with Satou’s kindness, leads to a slow but steady emotional connection. As the story unfolds, Satou and the people he meets face personal challenges, emotional dilemmas, and moments of redemption. The narrative explores themes of broken families, societal rejection, the psychological toll of isolation, and the complexities of human emotions.
