Flashpoint Spike Novels & Stories

"Pull up the dimensional stability report from four days ago." A pause. Then: "What am I looking at?" "The nexus readings," I said. "Hayes. Vera. Reaper. All three of them spiked at the same time. 4:17 a.m. Four days ago. While they were sleeping." "That could be normal adjustment," Phoenix said. "They're new nexus points. Their bodies are still—" "It's not adjustment," I said. "Look at the pattern. Those spikes are synchronized. Perfectly. Natural enhancement doesn't do that. Someone accessed them. Someone reached into the Kethros dimension and used them like a doorway while they were unconscious and had no idea."

If the spike was breakable, then I saw no reason why Cheng couldn’t do the same. A raised arm from Cheng indicated he would give it a try and then he exchanged a few words with Mandy. She was reluctant to leave him but eventually she returned to the stands. Once she was back on the terraces, Cheng stretched out his wings hovered up so that he was level with Comfort’s spike jutting upwards to avoid Unscathed’s grasp. Cheng placed all four hands on the spike. “And keep your eyes closed,” I shouted. The six eyes beaded across Cheng’s face closed. I gave the signal to Phil (a less ostentatious nod, this time) and time restarted. I snapped my fingers in time with Phil and the balls burst in a fla

One long slim hand tucked under her chin and the other lay along her side, relaxed and beautiful in its unconscious pose. In those minutes of observation, Joey knew that he loved this girl. That he wanted this woman to be his. It was so sudden and unexpected as the sound of the first shell burst at the start of an attack. All his life he had waited for this moment, and now the realization that it had come at last gave him the same sense of shock as one receives when one expects a loud report, and because of the anticipation is more startled at the explosion.

the alpha deadpanned. The awful snorting sound, that escaped him before laughter bubbled up and out of his throat; had him flushing so hotly he could feel his toes tingling. However, Lexus’s full toothed grin and scoffing chuckle made it worth it. As tempted as the Brunet was to make some snarky comment, he just shook his head. Though his next action, he blamed entirely on the cocky alpha pinning him. Jade eyes lowered as he arched his spine and rocked his hips against Lex’s causing friction, arousal, and lust to tingle at the base of his spine.

It was in clear view and I knew what to do. I walked towards him, his back was to me so he wouldn't know what hit him. I smirked as I could already taste the sweet scent of victory. Without a second thought I passed Atlas Burnam but only after making sure I stepped on his good foot. Hard! Now the logic behind this was that if Atlas experienced real pain in his foot, he'll pull it off the floor as a reflexive response which would mean he would be left standing on his "bad" foot. When people would be busy being angry at me for stepping on his foot, I'll casually mention that he was currently standing on his supposedly injured foot and everybody would be shocked and Skylar would win!

I whispered, my hands flying over the manual override switches I had installed during the rebuild. I didn't try to outrun them. I used the terrain. I spotted a jagged ridge of crystallized data a "Glitch-Spire" jutting out of the fog. I banked hard, driving the Sovereign up the vertical face of the spire. The Feral Guard tried to follow, but their hover-sleds couldn't handle the sharp incline. I reached the peak and turned the bike, looking down at them. I pulled the trigger. The shotgun didn't fire lead. It fired EMP-Slugs shells packed with condensed Origin-Code I had synthesized in the garage.

frequency, the signal of Equilibrium. ​We are the Cinders of Earth. We are the Architects of the Green. And we are ready to listen. ​The Horizon of Chapter 133 ​The reply from Triangulum didn't come in words. ​Across the two-million-light-year void, a single, brilliant point of light flared in the center of the neighboring galaxy. It was a "Void-Flash"—the signature of a Spire so massive it was visible to the naked eye across the universe. ​"They’re waiting for us," Sophia said, her blue light turning to a triumphant gold.

I watched the United Korean Military as they levelled Frostpoint. With the bulk of my forces bunched around the now-empty ramps, the squad of Xiezhi had struck far more efficiently than the insurgents they fought to defend. Already plumes of fire sprung from the top of Frostpoint's mighty platform-several Xiezhi had ascended the structure in record time, dashing through my disorganized opposition at lightning speed.

Looking through the large window, she saw an hotel across the parking lot, which she could easily set up in, but the random movement of people in the room meant that there a likelyhood that she would be obstructed while trying to hit her mark. “We’re raising the entry f*e for the third round to three hundred dollars.” The commentator announced. Surprisingly, Kimberly was still in the game, despite paying little attention to what was going on in front of her. She counted an extra hundred dollars worth of chips and pushed it across the board, just as the other three players had done. If she was to do a perfect job, she’ll have to make her shot when her target was still in the parking lot, whic
