Warlocks Come Save Us

Come, Just as You Are

Dear Diary, What is going on!? Am I seeing things- are my eyes going bad!? I keep on seeing these gray hazy shapes beside people! And no, they're definitely not shadows! They shape is completely different from what it's next to- well, most of the time. I'll just ignore it and maybe it'll go away. -Week later- Dear Diary and my sanity if it's listening, Things are going from delusional to outright cuckoo crazy! I swear I saw a face in the gray globs I've been seeing, but it wasn't scary or anything, it was like catching the face of an angel. And it wasn't like he had perfect features or anything, but his eyes. The care and heartfelt love in them was so... unbelievable? I guess? I can't explain it... I can neither explain what I saw today, but it wasn't the sort of spooky but endearing sort of thing I saw yesterday, but a bewildering (?, yeah, I would put it that way) scene of a witch riding on a broom through out traffic on the highway. Every once in a while, she would disappear into one of the cars and then jump into another one. Strangely enough, after she came out, most of the people driving would either start becoming careless or be shooting off their horn at another car. I am seriously considering going to see a psychiatrist, but I don't want to explain why to my dad, so I'll just ignore it for now. Surely, it'll go away!? -Week later- Dear Diary!!! It hasn't gone away!!!! It's getting worse!! I keep on seeing roads disappearing and being replaced with wide open fields as if no man has touched it before! Not only that, sometimes I see part of a building missing as if a line was drawn straight down in a clean cut and a forest begins as if it was natural! I've been keeping my distance from these strange things I've seen, but now I wonder if I should investigate? I picked a flower from one of my 'hallucinations' and it was real! Maybe, the rest is real too? Could it be possible? But if it is, why did it have to be me? I'm just a normal girl in high school trying to graduate so I can go to college with a dance scholarship. Maybe go on a few dates or see if Sean would help me find a guy from the soccer team? They are so hot! Isn't that hard enough for a girl? -Couple of days later- Dear Diary!!!!!! I have HUGE NEWS! I'm not crazy after all, I actually found someone who gave me some answers! His name... did I ask him? I'm sure I did, but I don't remember! Darn my horrible memory that acts like a willful child choosing what it wants and doesn't! Anyway, I atleast remember the most important thing- I'm not crazy! So it turns out, I came across our forgotten world. Or should I say kingdom. Anyway, he tried to explain that the world is like a coin with 2 faces on it- same world but two parts that can't face each other. Although, we did at one point, but that was before the rebellion and this really evil guy took a third of the kingdom to go up against the king. He didn't win though and retreated. .... but then, what was it? He put out a bet to the king? or something? Ah, faulty memory, I'll have to ask again. But in the long run- he and his minions are fighting the King and his loyal people for our world.... or something. I don't think it has anything to do with me, I'll just enjoy the new scenery I get to see now. -Couple of Months Later- "EXCUSE ME!? You want me to do WHAT NOW!? I must've heard you wrong!"

Rays of Us

In the dystopian city of Rylos, where the government dictates love through a behavioral score-based lottery, Nico Knight is a man who’s always gotten what he wants. A nightclub tycoon with a reputation, he’s never had to answer to anyone until the lottery pairs him with Odalis, a quiet librarian with an air of calm that feels almost too controlled. To Nico, Odalis is a puzzle of a woman too ordinary, too unremarkable to pique his interest. But there’s something about her stillness that begins to intrigue him. Beneath the surface, he senses a storm she’s carefully hiding. Nico finds himself questioning whether he really knows what he wants or if his true challenge lies in the mystery of Odalis herself. (Sneak peak scene) Nico slouched on the couch, drunk, eyes fixed on Odalis as she read, the quiet hum of the room wrapping around them like a soft cocoon. Nico: You know, I never imagined a woman like you would be in my life. Quiet, composed... not my taste. Odalis (without looking up): And what did you imagine? Nico: Someone like me. Loud. Reckless. Odalis: Sorry for the disappointment. He blinked, his eyelids heavy, the pull of sleep growing stronger. Nico: “You’re like... an angel, in the wrong place.” His head dropped back, surrendering to sleep. Odalis glanced at him, a faint smile playing at her lips. Odalis (whispering): “You’re wrong, Nico Knight. Maybe the wrong place is exactly where I need to be.” She tucked him in, the soft rustle of fabric the only sound, and returned to her book. The silence between them now felt strangely comfortable.

The promise to save the villain

A peaceful life without any bloodshed, that’s the only dream left for Mr. Kim, a former gangster. Using his savings, he bought a nice apartment and started running a small bookstore. As everything seemed to be going smoothly, he met a high schooler named Ah Yeon, the one who was destined to turn his peaceful life upside down. Learning about her background and feeling pity for the child, who been suffering from abuse and bullying, he offered her a job at his bookstore. Over time, they grew closer, almost like family. Reading was her hobby, and because of that, she often recommended novels to him. One of those novels was 'The Death Note'—a romantic yet revenge-filled story, full of kidnapping, abuse, killing, mafia... and it all revolved around three main characters. Initially uninterested, he picked it up on a boring day. When she saw him reading the novel, she asked him a curious question. “From the main three characters, who would you save, if you ever got the chance?” “No one…” he replied without much thought. “What? Why?” “How can someone save a fictional character? Use your brain.” “I know it’s just a story; that’s why I’m asking as if. What if we transmigrate to another world and get the chance? If I could, I would save the villain. He is just like me..." Her eyes reflected sorrow as she said it. Few days later, news reached to Mr. Kim that the girl had committed suicide after murdering her stepfather. That day, for some reasons he kept the book with him, but the next day, he was dumbfounded to find himself in the body of a young girl who had been tortured terribly. Slowly, Kim realized the world was strikingly similar to the novel, The Death Note. However, there was no mention of his new name Yoon-Jung. So, he concludes it as an extra with no importance. To escape from the terrible circumstances, he reverted to being the old Kim he once was, but fate give him a new life that completely opposite to the one he led before. Few years later, his peaceful life got an unexpected turn when he met him, the villain, Ah Yuan. He reminded him of Ah Yeon. From the depths of his heart, Kim wished to save him. But in a world where he was struggling to survive himself, could he truly save Ah Yuan from his tragic fate?
