Shadowed Crown Chapter 11
Her smile, laced with blood, looked haunting.A Haunt swept in, scattering the cash and gold bars from the car.Sparks flew, and the flames roared to life with a loud whoosh.I pulled a gold bar from my pocket. "Hear me, infant spirits, it's time for our final showdown!"The winds howled as I watched my mom wail in despair.Her tears were for her wealth, not a shred of worry for me.I spun around and plunged into the swirling darkness without a second thought.Not a single drop of my blood could be wasted.It trickled down and slowly dried up as it moved along."Unless I back down, I won't surrender an inch of this city to you!"……Maybe it was the power of my blood, or maybe they had truly developed a will of their own.The long night finally gave way to dawn.The morning rain cleansed the city.The malls and supermarkets slowly became sanctuaries for the survivors.The streets echoed with nothingness.I made my way to my childhood home, laying my mother and brother to

Out of nowhere, a bone arrow sliced through the air and struck his chest with a sharp hiss.The arrow, upon contact with Jim's blood, glowed a sinister red.His face contorted in pain, and suddenly, his grip failed him as he plummeted from the sky.I dashed forward, my heart racing, and leaped to cover Jim with my body.The Haunts erupted into mocking laughter."Jim, we've taken apart the bones of the mortal who wanted you dead and crafted them into these arrows. Take one more step and we'll pin you down in front of your own troops!"Jim's eyes blazed with fury, his whole body shook with anger.I held his hand and, with all my might, broke off the bone arrow embedded in him.I bled till it drained all my energy.I gave my blood to the weakened Jim.His face turned a deep shade of red as he looked at my blood-stained lips and slowly extended his hand."He's nothing but bones now, he can't touch me. However, you, you're the one I need to protect!"……Jim yanked the bone arro

Mom lunged for the money, her cheeks quivering in glee."I'm the one who told him to take it. All this makes it easier to move around, anytime, anywhere."Seriously, with brains like that, I bet that old warehouse was going to be their final crib. However, there was no way I was going to give them their happy ending.With a swift kick, I sent them packing. "This joint? It's mine now."James jabbed a finger at me. "You think you're some kind of magician, huh? Stealing all my dough? Just wait till I get back on my feet."They had no clue they were never getting back on their feet.As bloodied humans... The Haunts would sniff them out first.Mom clutched my brother's arm and shot me a death glare. Before storming off, I could see tears streaming down her face. She ranted, "There has to be some laws left in this world."The air turned chilly, a storm was brewing.I let a drop of blood fall on the mountaintop, and the infant spirits formed a line behind me.I gave the signal. "Ton

I could not help but smirk. "Too scared to head home because you think I'll blow you sky-high? Figures. Your fancy sports car can't even handle you. The moment you fall down, the poor thing's gonna kiss the pavement."Laughter erupted from my friends.James, on the other hand, was frantic, lunging to grab my hair.He was so mad he looked like he wanted to smack me, but I was quicker, a swift kick landed right on his pudgy stomach.James yelped, clutching at my arm, babbling, "Since when can't I handle you? You're just a little troublemaker! You've been freaking me out with your spooky antics every single day."The moment had arrived, my friends were already wielding their wands.With one solid kick, I sent him tumbling down the slope.James's bodyguard tried to step in, but just then, the sky turned ominous, and a lightning bolt crashed down."Boom!" It struck right beside James, next to a tree.Smoke billowed up, and it was hard to tell if it was the tree or James's own fat s

I stomped on the fallen paper, grinding it under my heel with two fierce stomps.I wrapped my arms around him and whispered close to his ear, "Once this is all behind us, I'll be the one to guide you to paradise, okay? Holding onto hate will only make the pain burn brighter."His eyes welled up with hot tears, and his mind cleared from the fog that had clouded it."He took my life, my identity, and now he's living with my name, my degrees. How can I just let that go?"I gave his back a comforting pat and met his gaze."In a few days, when the weird end of days rolls in, we'll make him pay."Jim gave a small nod, his skin cooling down, no longer fired by my blood.Right then, I noticed something odd, the weak Haunts that had barely any strength were suddenly frantically feasting on my leftover blood.Their once translucent bodies filled with vigor as they started to circle and swoop around me."I've got a plan!"Our family's old mansion was the perfect place to lay restless sp
Shadowed Crown Chapter 6
So, in a fury, she set my forest ablaze on her way to the hospital.My hand shot out, fingers wrapping around her throat. "You've ruined my possessions, now I'll destroy what you cherish..."……For all those years, it was the first time she had seen the fury in my eyes.Her eyes were a frosty shield, but beneath the surface, a flicker of panic betrayed her. Yet she managed to keep her voice steady, "What's the plan? Going to call the cops on me? Got any proof?""Proof? Throwing you in jail would be too kind."Back in my previous life, the safest hideouts were underground or in sealed-off spaces.In the still of the night, I left her tied up at the morgue's entrance.Her screams tore through the silence, but they were ignored, just like the bodies that lay there.I bit into my finger, letting drops of blood fall to the floor."Rise..."However, the expected surge of spirits did not erupt with force.It just wafted gently into the air, swirling around me."What's happening?"
