Mapleshade Warriors Novels & Stories

And with all the training I had received since joining the Gamma Warrior program, I could keep my shapely body and build strength and stamina. Once I am officially 21, I can formally join the ranks of our Gamma's Warrior System. I'll try to simplify it. There are five classes in total, which are your training phase. We can start as early as 16-17 to prepare for our first shift on the first full moon after our 18th birthday—classes 1 and 2 specialized in strength, stamina, and pain endurance training. Shifting is a nasty business, not to forget the pain.

Keagan waved his hand over it and a new option appeared; Artifacts. The menu dropped down, revealing a new entry into his arsenal. It revealed an artifact—a shard from the broken mask of the defeated villain. The system's voice continued "This artifact grants you the power of shadow manipulation, a skill once possessed by your formidable adversary. By activating the shard, you can tap into this extraordinary ability for a limited time." Keagan's eyes widened as he grasped the significance of the artifact. The power of shadow manipulation, at his disposal. It was a chance to harness the very essence of his defeated foe. A surge of excitement coursed through his veins as he contemplated the po

Something nags at my mind when I watch her in Beast form and it's been bugging me. Shadow Warriors are an alien race. We came to Earth after destroying our home planet with infighting. Our history texts have been passed down to each Shadow Warrior leader. I gained the books from my uncle. They chronicle the Shadow Warrior downfall on our home planet. My uncle worried about history repeating itself and forced me to read the texts early on. Even in my teens, I found them fascinating. I only skimmed through the texts on female Warriors because they hadn't existed in hundreds of years. Until Marinah. Her mother, Dinah, was a descendant of one of the female Warriors who came to Earth. Her secrets

The sword began to tingle in his grip as Rhychard blocked another swing. He could hear the words the other Warriors were chanting and soon the words began to make sense to him even though he couldn't make them out. He focused on Mephalus, but he repeated the same chant as the others, reaching with everything Kree taught him into the sword. He felt the other Warriors, felt their lifelines. Out of the corner of his eye he saw a tall, thin elf with long blond hair look at him, a smile on his face. Then he nodded at Rhychard and melted into the air, his life force flowing toward Rhychard and entering the sword once again. The blade pulsed with the added energy and Rhychard felt it grow more soli

And there was no vines or loose stones that would offer me a safe route down. And there’s mages down there training all day and part of the night. I was sure that they’d route me straight back to their commander. It was the dead of night when I heard deep thudding outside the door. It swung open before anyone touched it and the room seemed much darker. Telling me that Warlord and his smokey presence had entered the chamber. He closed the door and lit a candle on his small table. Revealing that his face and chest were splattered in dark blotches.

Jade blurted out before she could stop herself. Jin seemed surprised for a moment, but then, burst out in laughter. He winked at Jade and whispered, “Old enough.” Embarrassed, Jade tried to find something to distract herself. And to avoid looking at Jin. “What do you think?” Jin said, breaking the silence. Finally getting over her shame, Jade cleared her throat and tried to look serious. “How?” “There is a legend around here… About the four Holy Beasts responsible for protecting the four kingdoms—”

Instantly, I grabbed the nearest warrior and pulled him directly in front of me… the sword pierced into him as his body went limp. I shoved him aside and stared at the warrior who had just attacked him. His expression was frozen in horror. I didn't give him time to recover; I stepped forward and slammed my fist into his face, he crashed to the ground. “Lisa.” Kael's voice cut through the chaos. I turned slightly. “Six minutes remaining.” My eyes widened. Six minutes? I glanced around. Three warriors were still standing. But as soon as they heard Kael's warning, two of the warriors who had fallen began forcing themselves back onto their feet.

He was dangerous. The kind of dangerous that left kingdoms in ruins. The kind of dangerous that had haunted her life for years. The warlord's eyes burned with hatred. "Kill them all." The remaining enemy warriors hesitated. Then charged again. --- This time the guardians moved. The nearest giant stepped forward. Its massive shield slammed into the ground. BOOM! A shockwave swept across the chamber. Enemy warriors were thrown backward instantly. Several crashed into pillars, others hit walls. One unfortunate man flew directly into another unfortunate man.

As we descended into the subterranean colosseum, the noise became overwhelming. Two thousand warriors filled the stone tiers of the cavern. These were the Shadow Warriors—the battle-scarred outcasts of the Dead Woods. They were alphas, betas, and omegas who had been rejected by their birth packs, criminals who had survived the brutal winter wilderness, and veterans of forgotten border wars. They didn't wear uniforms; they wore heavy furs, iron chains, and leather straps over bodies covered in jagged claw scars. They were savage, and radiated a volatile pressure.

I lunged. The corporate tower is gone, but the "Auto-System" has sent a "Default Pack" of glitching white wolves to replace Elara’s family! It’s a war for the very soul of the forest. Can the "Original" Silver Moon Pack defeat a "System-Generated" army that doesn't feel pain and doesn't know how to die?**
