Oh hey there! Welcome to my totally not your average novel. I'm Natsuo, your humble guide (well, maybe not that humble) through this wild rollercoaster of a story. Buckle up because things are about to get real. So, picture this: I was just your regular guy—well, if by regular you mean born into a family of portal-hopping "Dimension Walkers," betrayed by a kingdom, and accidentally sold my soul to Lucifer. Oops. Now I’ve got these wicked powers like gaining all knowledge (yes, I’m a genius), multiplying anything by a trillion (imagine a trillion-dollar pizza), and copying abilities (basically, I'm like the ultimate cheat code). Oh, and did I mention I’m emotionless now? Yeah, turns out selling your soul has some side effects. Who knew? Anyway, things went downhill real fast when the Night Commander decided to try and kill me and my best friend Minami. Spoiler alert: didn’t work. But, in a twist of fate (and some magic portals), I ended up in a new dimension where I ran into some really "interesting" characters, like a dude in a red suit named G.W.A.K.(Guy with a katana) He’s kind of like a talking cartoon with a katana—breaks the fourth wall and cracks jokes like there's no tomorrow. Honestly, he might be funnier than Luci, my annoying floating eyeball companion. Now, with these crazy new powers, I’m hopping between dimensions, stealing abilities from other powerful freaks, and maybe trying to find a way to reclaim my soul before Lucifer decides she wants more than just a one-time deal. Did I mention I don’t play nice? Yeah, if you’re looking for a hero, you’re probably in the wrong place. But hey, stick around! There’s betrayal, epic fights, fourth-wall-breaking shenanigans, and enough sarcasm to fill an entire kingdom. Oh, and if you’re reading this, you might want to keep your eyes peeled—I might just be watching you.

"God...when are they coming for little Avry....the caretaker who usually comes for her has taken far too long now" Eva wonders as she looks at the six year old little girl beside her. The little girl yawns from tiredness. Eva sighed heavily and looked at the little girl beside her with a light smile. "Hey Avry.....can I ask you something" Eva asks gently. Avry nods her head softly as her big adorable eyes stare at her teacher. "Do you wanna come home with me....it's getting pretty late and I can't leave you here" Avry's eyes sparkled from excitement. "Yes Miss Eva....I wanna come with you" Eva smiles brightly but she can't help but scowl inside "What kind of people forget about a little girl at school to such hours" Eva checked her watch and saw that it was eight thirty pm and the school had practically closed. 'Huhhhh...' ...................... But little did Eva know that this little action of care and responsibility had already changed her life. Eva sat quietly in her living room and checked her watch. It was nine twenty and no one had called about Avry Walker from the school yet. She had informed the school that she would take Avry home to atleast have something to eat and rest. They had allowed her since she stayed quite close to the school and had a respectable personality. Suddenly Eva heard a knock on her door and glanced at Avry who was watching cartoons slightly. She got up and walked towards the door. She peeked through the peep hole of her apartment door and saw a man. He was completely shrouded in darkness and beside him stood another man. Eva couldn't make out their faces at all since it was dark outside. Eva picked up the baseball bat next to the door and slowly opened the door. A chilling gush of cold wind immediately brushed against her skin. Eva didn't know whether it was because of the cold rain outside or that indifferent cold stare that the man with the black investigator hat gave her. And still Eva couldn't make out his face since he held his head low. Eva glanced at the other man who stood their calmly like a faithful assistant. He was quite good looking. "Who are you" Eva asked as her grip on the bat tightened. The assistant like man smiled calmly but didn't answer her question "We're here for Miss Avry" Eva looked at them suspiciously but suddenly Avry's soft but tired voice came from behind. "Big brother.....you're here" Eva glanced at the man whom the words had been directed to and she saw the man who had been holding his head low lift it up. Since the light from the living room could now fall on his face, Eva saw him clearly. Eva immediately froze in amazement and her heart had slowed but it beat hard as she looked at that ethereal face. .............. From that day, Eva had a feeling that nothing in her life would remain the same. Join Eva as she unlocks dark and dangerous secrets about this mysterious man. But her curiosity to know this man brings her deeper into a world she knows nothing about. She is soon faced with something even more dangerous and she can nolonger turn back.

It was a life without regret. My parents were in good health, and I wasn’t homey enough for me to combine my studies and part-time jobs. I like fantasy, martial arts, games, fiction movies, cartoons… I’m a normal high school student who likes these things. That was certainly true until ten years ago. This is not the earth. A fantasy world dominated by powerful people. Savage utopia. It is a world where you can take anything with you if you have physical strength. Author: Farnar

LOVE IS BLIND, iyan ang motto ni Margaret Faye sa kanyang buhay pag-ibig. Why? Iyon ay dahil sa nahulog ang loob niya sa isang kaibigan na miyembro ng federasyon, si Kahlil. Wala namang pakialam doon ang dalaga dahil naniniwala siya na kaya pang magbago ng kanyang kaibigan.

Kontento na sa buhay niya si Donna. Meron na siya ng lahat ng pwedeng hilingin ng isang babae. Hindi siya mayaman at sikat pero meron naman siyang masayang pamilya, supportive na mga kaibigan, stable na trabaho at higit sa lahat, love life. Sa katunayan, limang taon na sila ni Jestoni. Nagtatrabaho ang nobyo niya sa Amerika para sa pamilya nito at para raw sa future nila. Mahirap para kay Donna ang malayo rito pero dahil mahal niya si Jestoni at may tiwala siya rito, tiniis niya ang lahat. Pero basta na lang bumaliktad ang mundo niya nang malaman niya mula sa nanay nito na tinatapos na nila ang relasyon nila dahil nagpakasal na ito sa isang Amerikana para makakuha ng green card. Lahat ng pangarap niya para sa kanilang dalawa ay naglaho at ang mga sakripisyo niya ay nabale-wala. Pakiramdam niya ay pinagkaisahan siya ng mundo. Para sandaling makalimot ay dinala siya ng mga pinsan niya sa isang bar upang panoorin ang paboritong banda ng mga ito—ang papasikat pa lamang na Tough Love. Doon ay nakilala niya ang gitarista na gwapo sana pero snob na si Bob Earvin Montelibano. Ang akala ni Donna ay makakalimot nga siya kahit pansamantala lang pero mukhang pinagkakaisahan yata siya ng tadhana. Nang gabi ring iyon, isang lalaking kapangalan ng ex niya ang nag-propose ng kasal sa nobya nito. Sila dapat iyon kung hindi lang siya nito ipinagpalit sa American dream nito! Nilayasan niya ang mga pinsan sa bar at sa hindi inaasahan ay sinundan siya ni Bob Earvin at sinigurong walang mangyayaring masama sa mga tao sa paligid niya—este sa kanya pala. Doon nagsimula ang friendship nila. And then Bob Earvin asked her out. Hindi iyon inaasahan ni Donna. Pumayag siyang makipag-date dito sa susunod na magkita sila. Pero may iba nang plano si Donna. Nang magkita sila ulit, dalawang taon na ang nakalipas at naghilom na ang sugatan niyang puso. Pumunta uli siya sa bar kung saan nagpe-perform ang Tough Love at hindi hamak na mas sikat na ang mga ito ngayon. Ang akala niya ay nakalimutan na siya ni Bob Earvin. Pero nagulat siya nang basta na lang siya nitong halikan. Para raw iyon sa pang-iindyan niya rito dalawang taon na ang nakararaan.

Dahil sa hindi inaasahang pangyayari ay hindi na siya muli nagmahal ng iba. Ngunit paano kung may bigla na lamang dumating sa buhay niya. Handa na ba siyang magmahal at sumugal muli kahit na wala itong kasiguraduhan?

Makakaya niya kayang pigilan ang damdamin lalo pa ngayon na makakasama niya ang lalaking dati ay sa telebisyon niya lang nakikita? Sa tingin niya oo.. Alam niya ang lugar niya.. He's an Idol and she's just an assistant. Mapipigilan niya.. Sana..

Seryoso ang mukha ng lahat habang nasa conference room lalo na ng bigyan bawat isa ng folder na naglalaman ng panibagong assignment. Huminga muna ang lalakeng nasa harap na bahagyang may edad na ngunit matikas pa rin ang tindig. Nakasuot ito na itim na vest na nakapatong sa suot nitong putting amerikana. Ganoon din ang suot ng iba pang nasa loob ng silid. “Your folder contains the information we’ve got about Agent One who disappeared for almost ten years. That person has no identity and left no traces at all. We thought he’s dead but a source confirmed he’s still alive and still working on something. That’s why we have to know what happened to him and his reasons for not reporting in this office for those years we thought he’s dead.” Pagpapaliwanag ng lalake kasabay ang mga bulung-bulungan. Maya-maya’y nagtaas ng kamay ang isa sa mga nakaupo na nakikinig. “Yes, Agent 15?” Tawag ng lalakeng nakatayo sa nagtaas ang kamay. “Why do you need us all in this case, Michael?” Tanong nito na hindi na nag-abala pang tumayo. “Good question. The Greater Heights needs all of its agents in this case. Why? Dahil hawak ni Agent One ang data na naglalaman ng mahahalagang impormasyon patungkol sa ating lahat. Nung aktibo pa siya sa organisasyon, siya ay isa sa may access sa ating system. Nang mawala siya at ideklarang patay, hindi na binago ang ating system. Ngunit ngayong may impormasyong buhay siya, huli na para mabago pa ang lahat. Kaya kailangang maibalik siya at tinayaking walang nag-leak sa mga hawak niya. Dahil kapag nagkataon, mamimilgro hindi lamang ang mga buhay nating lahat kundi lahat ng mga taong malalapit sa ating buhay.” Pagpapaliwanag ng lalake. Kita ang pagkabalisa ng lahat. “Finding a missing person is the easiest thing a single agent can do, Michael.” Wika naman ng isang pang agent na nakaupo na sinang-ayunan naman ng marami. “Yes….unless wala na ang lahat ng source maging ang lahat ng may koneskyon kay Agent One.” Sagot ng lalake na ikinatahimik ng lahat. *********************************************** Basahin ang makabagong istorya na puno ng aksyon, misteryo, at pag-big.
