Capitano X Aether Novels & Stories

I corrected. Ignoring this he continued. “There’s a Nano-chipped receptor implanted in your brain.” Carver paused to let that small matter sink in. “It acts as a receiver for a continuous broadcast from the Sending Hub. It transmits a constant stream of inhibitor messages to your frontal lobe, the area in your brain that makes short-term decisions. To cut things short, it stops you travelling more than a certain distance; the town boundaries of Capistrano.” “And how on Earth does it do that?” I marvelled at my own serenity. I’d been violated by these bastards but anger would get me nowhere.

The crowd erupted in uproar, voices rising in agreement, their support thundering around us. Barry’s face turned ashen, veins bulging at his temple. His glare burned into Ethan as his voice cracked with fury. “Shut your mouth! Emily is the Elder’s daughter, a princess of Coyote Pack, her bloodline noble and pure! You dare claim she’ll be given to a crippled Bayport Warrior?!” Ethan sneered, his aura pressing down like a storm. “Weren’t you the one who sealed the decree with your own hand? The Stone is marked. If you defy it now, you spit in the face of the Council itself! Do you intend to ignite war between Coyote Pack and Bayport Pack?”

Buddie seemed disdainful as he grunted, “What a bunch of snakes. Nothing to be sorry about!” “Tamayo’s all puffed up now that Aquilo’s the vice-captain of Admiralporium,” Diesel said. Kayson’s interest was piqued. “The vice-captain of Admiralporium?” Diesel replied, “Looks like you know about Admiralporium too, Kayson. The vice-captain holds a lot of power. “If Aquito came back, Northspring’s leader would be willing to welcome him himself.” Kayson smiled. “He’s just a vice-captain, yet Tamayo is this brazen?”

Half the Sky battalion suddenly forgets how wings work and falls screaming into the void. I ride the lightning rail that loops the main plaza, board sparking violet, katana singing. A Sky captain (taller, older, crown of frozen stormclouds) drops in front of me, spear spinning. Sky Captain: “Yield the throne you were never meant to sit, little queen.” I smile with too many teeth. Celeste: “Come take it.” He lunges. I parry with Hellebore Mist, the blade drinks his spear’s wind and spits it back as a tornado that rips his own wings off.

Moments later, [Rina P.O.V] The corridors of Aetherion were no longer a gauntlet of whispers and sneers. Today, they felt like a runway. My black stiletto boots clicked against the polished stone with a rhythmic, predatory grace, each step punctuated by the sway of my high silver ponytail. Beside me, Dahlia was vibrating with enough energy to power a small city, her Ventus Yellow cape fluttering like a canary's wings.

Not that I am certain they were indeed telling the truth. Sinasaway na ako ni Athelia sa pagtawa, mukha namang natutuwa si Kian sa asar kong tawa. I stared at Athelia to confirm answers. Walang bahid na pagbibiro sa mukha nito. Ena was even grinning amusingly, nakatingin na sa akin. Kian heaved his arms widely like he was showing me surprise. "Did it shocked you? He really is the Vice-Captain of Ursus Hoops. Ivan is the Captain."

Aaron grinned and bumped shoulders with him. "I’ve barely seen the Captain in casual clothes, but boy, he looks good in that white shirt and jacket. It’s hugging his muscles just right." "Can you shut up for one second?" Knox spat. "You can’t shame a man for admiring something sexy," Aaron chuckled, glancing back at Victor descending the stairs at his own unhurried pace. Knox grimaced but kept his gaze ahead. He wasn’t shrinking from anyone, but tonight he didn’t want Victor’s attention—the deadly, laser-focused kind he’d endured the past few days. He hated it. Even indifference would have been better. And that damn apology? He hadn’t written it yet. This ship would have to burn first.

Luca growled, stepping closer and the guy started speaking again. "He asked for her in return for his loyalty. And as a punishment for Silvia's betrayal, Alpha Alonso handed her over to Armando who held her captive as his property. In return, he helped Alonso in hiding and fighting for him. After some time Silvia escaped from Armando but before she could escape Alpha Alonso caught her and beat her to death. Armando beat her too. She was dying but Alpha Alonso couldn't see her dying so he saved her. He then tattooed her neck and she vowed to never betray him again and yet she betrayed him," That guy gritted only to earn a solid punch on his face causing him to fall back on the bed groaning in

POV EMMA BELLE The Vesper groaned as it hovered over the precipice of the Well. Below us, a column of white-violet energy roared upward, a fountain of unrefined Aether that served as the planet's nervous system. Aethelred stood on a platform of translucent glass that floated within the gale of light. His scythe was not made of metal; it was carved from a single shard of Aether-Glass, vibrating with a frequency that threatened to turn our ship into a cloud of atoms.

​The Vane’s Legacy II didn't just drift anymore; it resonated. ​Following the liberation of the Sombrero-Core, the ship’s hull had taken on a new texture, a shimmering, pearlescent obsidian that seemed to pull light from the surrounding stars and store it in the "Aether-Veins." Kaelen Vane stood at the center of the bridge, his hands folded behind his back, looking out at the "Great Dark", the massive, empty expanse between the Sombrero Galaxy and the Whirlpool Nebula.
