Cero Absoluto Novels & Stories

I compliment her and she doesn't say a word which means she's flushing. We don't talk much and say good night before we go to sleep. Since I'm in Zurich we started calling each other every night before we sleep. Ashley said she became those nightmares since she's back at home. She sees always the same. Some women wearing all black in a dark room and telling her to go away from 'him'. She still doesn't know who this women is or she means. I thought of a ritual with her to forget her dream and now it became something important. It really helps her to forget about the nightmares and it even helps me to not miss her that much.

POV: Neoma (Internal) She floated in a black vacuum. It was a state of absolute sensory deprivation. There was no gravity. No floor. No ceiling. No up or down to orient the vestibular system. There was only the endless, velvet embrace of the Void. It was cold. Not the biting, skin-cracking cold of the Wastes. It was the numbing zero-point energy of deep space. A temperature that stopped atoms from vibrating. A cold that stopped hearts from beating.

"You're making my left side rattle like a loose hinge." "I am not shivering," Thalen shot back, his teeth clicking together audibly as a fresh draft of subterranean air swept across the floorboards. "The atmosphere in this wretched market has a thermal coefficient approaching absolute zero, that is all." "Right. Absolute zero. Because you're famously immune to physical discomfort, Thalen of the High Spires." Zeyric shifted on the narrow, sagging cot, the springs groaning in protest. "Just admit the dampening draught is wearing off and move closer before we both freeze."

as a "Cosmic-Error." Elen, deep within the "Foundry-Core," felt the "Absolute-Cold" pressing against the Multiverse’s skin. This was not the cold of the North, which was merely a lack of heat; this was a "Conceptual-Freeze." The Silence was an "Anti-Narrative" that sought to "Level" all "Friction" into a flat, motionless "Nothing." It was the ultimate "Entropy," the end of the "Great-Story" where the ink simply refuses to flow.

Through the surveillance, I saw that he'd been completely frozen over like an ice sculpture, and I curled my lips in satisfaction. Charles died on the seventh day of the ice age, and everything was done and dusted. I stood up and brewed a pot of tea for myself, before turning on my computer and selecting one of the movies I'd downloaded beforehand. Then, I played it while savoring my tea, covered with a warm, cozy blanket. This was the life. One and a half years wasn't long, but it wasn't short, either. Because I'd prepared so thoroughly beforehand, it was the most comfortable period of my life.

Josh said as they all stood in Alex's bedroom, except Jerry. "Yup," Amanda said. "No more Torento, we all get to move on with our lives." "By the way, what happened to Torento?" Alex asked. "Dead!" Jacob answered. "Just after he shot you, he received a bullet in his forehead." "The lucky bastard," Jason said. "After all the crimes he committed, he gets a fast death." Amanda laughed. "As long as he is gone and out of our lives," she said.

I summoned the absolute vacuum of deep space. "ENTROPY." I commanded, my voice echoing with a cosmic resonance that made the glass beach fracture. I slammed a localized sphere of pure Absolute Zero directly into the dragon's open jaws. The effect was instantaneous. The apocalyptic dragon fire, capable of melting mountains, met the absolute zero of the Convergence. A violent hiss of steam erupted, but the fire was snuffed out before it could even leave Aurelius's mouth. The sudden, extreme drop in temperature froze the moisture in the air, creating a shower of razor-sharp diamond dust around them.

"The last one to laugh is you? You'll find that you can't laugh no matter how hard you try!" The cold within Yeer's body was no ordinary cold, and the cold poison came from the cold within the Arctic Abyss. The cold air entered his body. It was as difficult as climbing to the sky to dispel it. Even at Yang Xiao's peak, he did not dare to easily enter the Arctic Abyss. After all, under absolute zero, there were almost no creatures that could survive. Absolute zero was the lowest level of the temperature of the vessel, but it was only the lowest level in theory, which was about the same as the average temperature of the below 27 degrees of temperature.

It had merged with the concept of Absolute Stagnation. "Look at the telemetry," Katherine said, pacing the length of the marble platform. Her tactical mind was dissecting the data streams with surgical precision. "It's not eating planets anymore. It's freezing them. It's converting moving, living matter into flawless, unmoving white crystal. Complete thermodynamic equilibrium. Zero entropy. Zero life."

Out on the horizon, the sky slowly started turning pale. Sunrise was coming. "Heidi," I said without looking back, "promise me something." "Anything." "If I die, don't give me a funeral. Scatter my ashes in the ocean. I want... to be free. Go wherever I want." Her voice shook. "Rowan—" "Promise me." "...I promise." I smiled. "Thanks." The countdown hit zero. A notification rang through my mind. [Mission failed. Erasure protocol initiated.] I closed my eyes and waited for the end.
