Even Heroes Have The Right To Bleed Novels & Stories

“A noble answer. And incomplete.” He moved again, not attacking this time, but invading space. Every step forced me to adjust, to yield ground without retreating. My muscles screamed restraint. “You fight to preserve a future,” he said. “We fight to enforce inevitability.” I staggered as his presence pressed down, not physically but existentially. The weight of centuries. Of certainty. “You bleed,” he continued calmly, “because you still believe survival is earned through effort.” His fingers tapped my sternum once. “We bleed because we choose to remember what it cost.”

130 "Enough!" Alpha Killian bellowed, unable to see the future leaders shedding each other's blood like they were two sworn enemies from different packs. "Enough of your fight now." Jake heaved angrily, his face drenched in blood. He fisted his hands as he growled indignantly, eyes fixed on Noah. Noah, on the other hand, teetered unsteadily, barely keeping his balance after the hit. He received some harsh blows and it caused him to bleed severely too. His green tee was almost brown as he bled from different places on his body.

Next, his eyes, his mouth, his nose, and his ears began to bleed. He eventually bled to death. The camera recorded the scene coincidentally. It was enlarged and displayed on the huge screen. The entire scene fell silent at once and not a peep could be heard. In everyone’s eyes, there was only Zayn in the meantime. At this very moment, Zayn was God. He had defended the honor of Rheasia all by himself and startled the numerous fighters from powerful countries. An incident like this had never taken place before in the history of Rheasia, yet Zayn had now made history.

“That child. Her courage is remarkable. She’s a hero.” “Heroes sucks,” said Briane suddenly, his face looking like a blank sheet. “They always sacrifice themselves for others. And then what? They die! They haven’t even thought of the people they would left behind.” “That’s not true, Mr. George.” Mr. Heirt made his way to Briane’s stretcher, his footsteps echoing in the somber silence reigning in the tent. “If they are not to exist, the world will be in chaos, with no one to save it. They must be acknowledged. Just because they sacrifice themselves doesn’t mean they’re not thinking of those they’ll be leaving. In fact, they are the ones that prompted to fight despite knowing they’ll die.”

I couldn’t let that happen. Slowly I cleared the tears off of my eyes. I was my mother’s daughter. I was my father’s soldier. These boys are a piece of cake compared to the wars I’ve won for my ungrateful father. The ardents were my teammates and if there was anything Bloodrage ever taught me. It was to never leave your own behind. My breath suddenly hitched as I watched one of the brothers, the one with a chopped hand zoom from the shadows, his good arm raised in silent rage. A thick blade glinted under the light.

Zade mocks as he raises his own hands. Zion looks down, sadness etched across his face, a child who, despite it not being his age to be thrown into this was trying to help and do the right thing. Blinding light from their auras lights up the sky and for the first time, I hesitate. In the end, it came down to this… Blood against blood… In the forms of families, siblings… twins… mates… All against one another in a game of kill or be killed. But for what?

"Because this storm... It's going to be a wild ride." He didn't respond, but the tension in his body eased almost imperceptibly. His thumb continued its steady caress, a silent acknowledgment of the battle that had just shifted. The primal urge still pulsed between us, a potent, undeniable current, but now it was tempered with a shared understanding, a silent truce brokered not by surrender, but by mutual recognition. The night was far from over, and the path ahead was uncertain, but as I stood there, locked in his gaze, I knew one thing with absolute certainty: this dance had just begun, and I, Justice, wasn't sure if I could survive this or not.

Keeping my head down, I couldn’t muster the courage to watch the news. As a distraction, I stirred my cup of latte. The blend of the creamy aroma and the bitterness of the coffee roast was much like the turmoil in my mind. Pulling myself together, I told myself that I had started a new life. The past should not hold me down.

In their hands they held silver blocks. "The story must be clean " the Revisionists said together. Their voices had no feeling. "The characters are out of order. Go back to the ink." Benson raised his weapon. Fired a stream of black ink. It hit the leader of the suits. The man’s white suit turned into a mess of scribbles. Then he fell down like a pile of waste paper. "Maya get down!" Julian grabbed her arm. Pulled her behind a metal box. The battle was fast and scary. It was not like a fight. When a soldier was hit by a block his arm or leg would just disappear. It left a shape where the arm used to be. The soldiers screamed as they watched parts of their bodies vanish into the air.

“Listen to me, okay? What happened back then, whatever you remember or think you remember, none of it was your fault. You were a little kid. You didn’t do anything wrong.” “But Miles—” “Miles made a mistake,” I say carefully. “A really big mistake. But that was his mistake, not yours. Not mine. Not Mara’s. His.” Jonah looks down at his drawing again, his finger still tracing those dark lines. “Do you think about it a lot?” I ask gently. Another shrug.
