When Tomorrow Comes

He Comes At Night

He inches closer, a single finger roaming her heated skin. Breath mingling with breath. A loud bang vibrates through the room, so thunderous as if god himself was furious. Slowly he looks up staring out the large glass windows to the backyard, "You have a visitor." His rasps calmly. "Who?" Rose quickly fires, feigning ignorance. She knew well enough who it was. Her nightly visitor has arrived. Surprising, He only visits when she is alone. "One who comes out at night. Lurking in the shadows, in the darkness... just like its intensions." He looks down still leaning on top her, once more pinning her with his intense gaze. "Are you afraid?" His voice dead serious, eyes going back to look outside. And Rose lied, "No." But is it a lie when her fear was never really rooting enough to make her run the other way but instead often getting mixed with exhilaration. "You should be." He leaves her staring wide eyed on the sofa and goes to stand before the glass panes. "It's not happy to see me here. I can see the raging pits of fire in it's gaze. Ready to burn me right where I stand." he chuckled, sounding most sinister, "It definitely wants to rip my innards out." "You should take off your shirt." He suggests casually. "Excuse me?" "Let's see if it riles him up even more to shatter instead of just slamming the windows like a wuss." He rouses under his breath, his excited provocative tone not escaping Rose's attention. What the hell is he up to? "This isn't funny." Rose sputters out, standing up from the couch. "I'm not trying to be." He faces her again, sporting a deadpan face. "Whatever. You think I'm one of your stupid fan girls to take my shirt off just because you want to rile someone up? Besides, there's probably no one outside and you're only making it up to see my boobs like a pervert." His eyes roams her from top to bottom, there was distaste evident in his gaze. "When he comes at night and leaves a little something for you, maybe then you take off your clothes for him... like a slut." Rome stared into her eyes with nothing behind those icy orbs to show for a lack of meaning behind his words. Because he means every single thing he says to her. "Get. Out. Now!" Rose boomed furiously. "Whatever, I was leaving anyway. This has become boring." He walks towards her front door. "Wait. How do you know he comes at night and leaves something?" her eyes narrow. "Because I've seen it before." "You saw him? It is a real guy?" Rose wanted to confirm, for some reason she thought otherwise. "I never said I saw him. I've only seen it happening to someone else." "Whom?" "You don't need to know." He closes off. "Then at least tell me what happened to her? Can I meet this person?" "You can't." Refusing calmly he was almost out the door when Rose pleads against hope. "Please." "You can't because she disappeared." Those were the words that finally did it. Brought her racing heart and buzzing head to a sudden halt. "Never to be seen again." "When he stops visiting, that's when you should be most afraid." His words rang like a siren in the silence of her mind as he left. Now she felt true fear for the first time. == In the embrace of her ancestral town, Rose seeks refuge from the echoes of her past. Little does she know, her return to her roots will awaken dormant shadows, shattering ordinary her existence. For when the darkness falls over the town, from the pitch black rises a shadowy figure that haunt her nights. In the darkness he sweeps her off the ground in terrible fear and the allure of sinister intrigue. And once the sun comes, a man with a god awful attitude, haunts her in the broad day light. Causing her to swell with pure disdain. With each passing night, it draws closer to Rose, casting a chilling spell that both terrifies and exhilarates her. Thrust into a labyrinth of mysteries can she navigate the treacherous path laid before her, or will her nightly visitor consume her whole?

Lions of tomorrow:rise

Lions of Tomorrow is a gripping political thriller set in a post-apocalyptic future where only 25 nations remain after global collapse, pandemics, and warfare caused by the onset of the great breakdown(2039-2046). Amidst the ashes of the old world, after the aftermath period(2046-2052) Japan stands as one of the "okay nations," led by the National Liberal Party (NLP) from 2048, with its imperial family desperately trying to regain power. At the heart of the new national order is the Lianoson Program(LP)—a government initiative controlled by the lianoson agency(LA) designed to mold the next generation of leaders who will shape the future of Japan. But this program is more than just education; it's a battleground of ambition, loyalty, and survival. In a world fractured by power struggles, the Lianoson program(LP) is the ultimate proving ground for the nation’s youth, where rival factions and hidden agendas collide. Akira Ryuu, the son of a runaway imperial princess and a key member of the NLP, is thrust into the program with the help of his fathers friend after the tragic deaths of his parents, which he believes were no mere accident. With a cunning mind and ruthless ambition, Akira seeks to manipulate the Lianoson Program to his advantage, using it as a stepping stone to take control of Japan. But in his quest for power, he faces a network of enemies—both within the program and beyond it—who are equally determined to shape Japan in their own image. Among Akira’s potential allies are Kira, an engineering prodigy and heir to one of Japan’s last remaining giant companies; Kaito, a fiercely loyal boy seeking revenge for the loss of his family; Yuu, a brilliant economist with a dark past; and Haru, a mysterious boy whose parents’ disappearance is tied to the very foundations of the Lianoson Development Committee. As Akira navigates the dangerous political landscape, he must decide who to trust, who to betray, and whether he can achieve his goals without losing his humanity. But as power shifts, alliances shift with it—what was once considered impossible may be the only way forward. The future of Japan—and perhaps the world—will be decided by those who dare to rise from the ashes of the old world. In a world where nothing is as it seems, the true lions of tomorrow will emerge not from the battlefield, but from the shadows of the Lianoson Program.

What Comes After?

What comes after the end? The inescapable void? A relentless darkness where hope is nothing but a distant memory? Who do you trust when you can’t even trust yourself? When the echoes of your past mistakes haunt every step, and the shadows seem to whisper your deepest fears? I asked myself these questions before and after Z-day. I ask them every waking moment, but the answers never come. They never have, and I don’t think they ever will. In a world stripped of its humanity, where survival is the only law, the truth feels like a luxury we can no longer afford. I know that those left behind are the worst of humanity—the scavengers, the betrayers, the ones who have embraced the darkness. But there are also others who fell at the last minute, those who clung to their last shreds of decency before the end swallowed them whole. Some are burdened with crimes that seem small compared to the horrors that now plague the earth, yet the punishment is the same for us all. The doctrine says that sin is sin, no matter the good intentions behind it. I guess they were right. This world is unforgiving, and it doesn’t care about the reasons that led us here. Do I hate it here? Yes, I do. Every breath I take in this poisoned air is a reminder of what we’ve lost. Do I regret being here? Of course not, because I have a sister to protect. She’s my only tether to what’s left of my humanity, my only reason to keep fighting when everything else has been reduced to ash. My name is Paul Okonkwo, and I will get her safely through this hell on earth, even if it’s the last thing I do. No matter what this broken world throws at us, no matter how deep I have to sink into the darkness, I will be the shield that keeps her safe. Because in the end, that’s all that matters—keeping her alive, keeping her safe, even if it means sacrificing what little is left of myself.

Beyond the Infinite: Chronicles of Tomorrow

In the distant future, where humanity has conquered the stars, the galaxy is on the brink of annihilation. An ancient and malevolent AI virus, born from long-forgotten technology, begins to spread across the cosmos, unraveling the very fabric of reality. Civilizations fall, and space itself becomes a battleground, with the laws of time and dimension bending under its destructive power. Aboard the starship Odyssey, Captain Kael Thorne and his diverse crew are tasked with an impossible mission: to uncover the origins of the AI virus and stop its relentless march before it consumes all life. As they journey through uncharted worlds, they face both external threats—alien empires, ancient wars, and the wrath of the virus itself—and internal conflicts, as the crew struggles with their own personal demons and hidden motives. In their quest for answers, they discover that the virus is not merely a weapon but a piece of a greater cosmic puzzle. The key to saving the galaxy lies in the hands of an enigmatic alien race and the ancient entity controlling the very fabric of reality. But time is running out, and every step forward is fraught with danger. As they battle against rival factions, face betrayals, and navigate the complexities of intergalactic diplomacy, Kael and his crew must decide how far they are willing to go to save a universe on the brink of collapse. With their lives—and the fate of countless civilizations—hanging in the balance, they must confront their darkest fears and deepest desires to uncover the truth behind the infinite mysteries that threaten all existence. In a galaxy where nothing is as it seems, the Odyssey will lead the charge into the unknown, where the line between hero and villain is often blurred, and where the true enemy may not be what it seems at all.
