A Big Black Sky Ao3 Novels & Stories

That did it. The sky turned black in an instant. Zach was no longer sprawled on the grass but now standing straight, oozing this dreadful miasma. Julia can feel the pain, but the sight of sky black, crimson, and dark violet in color was something, not even the pain can make her forget. To top it all off, she suddenly found it hard to breathe. This is no longer Titan's power but Zach's.

Kayo tackles Rowan so hard they both go down in a pile of tails and books and pure joy. We stand in the center of it all, six shadows stretching long across the plaza, while the sky above us rearranges the stars into one new constellation: A blackbird carrying a burning sun, wrapped in coyote tracks, circled by nine fox tails, framed by dragon wings and an open book. Permanent. Real. Ours. Later, when the sun finally rises (real sun this time, golden and gentle), the Sky King approaches alone. No crown. No armor. Just an old man in simple gray robes, eyes the color of distant thunder.

The sky above the Blackwood Keep was no longer a canopy of familiar stars. Since the explosion of the silver moon, the heavens had been stained a permanent, bruised violet, a celestial scar that pulsed with a low, rhythmic dread. For Isabella Vance, the sight was a constant reminder of her failure.

*Aria* The sky woke up wrong. It took me a few minutes to realize why. From my window, Blackmoon’s mornings usually looked crisp and clean—the kind of sharp light that made the world feel solid, even when everything underneath was cracked. Today, everything was… muted. The sun was up, technically. But its light felt thin. Smudged. Like someone had dragged a dirty thumb across a painting. The colors outside looked leeched—greens duller, stone grayer, even the snow patches lurking in the shadows of the trees a flat, dead white.

Meeran brushed off Sikandar’s hands, “But I won’t take you to them.” “Please, he is going to kill the author and shut down AI. There's no telling what that will do to our world,” Sikandar pleaded. “Relax!” Meeran shrugged, “Killing one person and shutting down a bot can’t affect our world.” “Guys,” Ayesha got everyone’s attention, “What’s happening to the sky?” The boys looked up and were shocked to see the sky cracking like eggshells. Between the cracks various texts glowed.

Elara’s POV~ I had seen many skies. But I had never witnessed a sky bleeding. Not like this. The sun had broken. Not shattered—perhaps. It was as if a large black disk had appeared between the sky and earth and covered the light until it shattered soundlessly. And in the air, hung in the center of it all. A black sun. It radiated no heat. Only gravity. It pulled everything toward it. Even us. I stumbled forward. Then Jasmine caught me before I fell.

***** Inside the Blackfang Rift The sky above the Blackfang Rift cracked open with thunder as we crossed its jagged threshold, swallowed by shadow and cold. The rain followed us in, but as if cursed, it no longer fell in droplets—it became mist. A swirling, heavy, ash-scented fog that clung to our skin and refused to evaporate. Even the light from our mage lanterns could barely slice through the gloom.

And, sure enough, their delicious costus smell does the trick. Holy mother… Since I last had my eyes open, the sky has gone completely black. It looks like a heavy thunderstorm is about to commence, judging by the lightning soaring through the sky. It looks creepy as hell. There is no way in hell that this happened naturally, not this fast. Did I do that?! “Well, it’s safe to say you have magic”. Aiden breathes out. A worrisome frown is etched on his face while he looks up at the sky nervously.

​The sky over Neo-Tokyo was no longer a Bruised violet. For the first time in fifty years, it was a terrifying, crystalline black, dotted with the cold fire of distant stars. But the beauty of the "Awakening" was short-lived. As the Static Blanket dissolved, the vacuum left behind was filled with a new kind of sound, a high-pitched, metallic whine that vibrated in the teeth of every shifter in the city.

The sky above the Blackwood Wastes rained burning obsidian. Fragments of the Ark-Devourer streaked through the twilight like a thousand dying suns, tearing through the violet clouds and crashing into the distant mountains. But beneath the apocalyptic fireworks, three hundred silver shooting stars pierced the atmosphere.
