Sonic Boom Cosmo Novels & Stories

But he moved faster. He grabbed my wrist mid-air, fingers wrapping around my skin with startling precision. And then he pulled….just enough to throw me off balance. I stumbled forward and suddenly we were chest to chest, breaths mingling. I could feel how fast both our heartbeats were, like a voltage line. His voice dropped lower. “If you’re going to hit me,” he murmured, “aim properly next time.” Jonah spoke through the intercom, breaking the tension. “There was a system malfunction, apparently someone damaged an override switch.”

Boss has this bartender power that makes you speak your mind as soon as you sit on the counter. “Do you want to kill me, this looks too spicy.” The green plate in front of me, full of a shiny red soup and thick noodles, even made my nose itch with its smell. “My clients are usually drunk so I wanted to try something spicy this time.” “Then I am going to need a beer, Boss." I hesitated before grabbing the plate and carefully blew on it. "Here goes nothing.” As expected, the ramen was too spicy for me. Tears began to drop from my eyes and my nose started running after just a spoonful.

“So you want to know my name? “Fine. I’ll tell you right now. At least you’ll know the name of your killer.” Livid, Cosmo turned around and grabbed the gun from a mercenary to aim at Kaze’s head. “Ah!” The employees of Sky Ocean Corporation shrieked, taken aback by the sudden turn of events. Darcy went white as a sheet. Kaze narrowed his eyes. “Listen up. My name is Cosmo Lee. Know the face of your killer,” Cosmo yelled viciously, his hand on the trigger. “Click! Click!” The firing pin inside the firearm jammed. Cosmo could not fire the gun.

the population from what they termed a "Biological Cult." Avery stood on the observation deck of the old Ritz-Carlton, her hair whipped by a wind that tasted of impending rain and ozone. In her hand, she held a handheld sensor that mapped the acoustic signatures of the warships. "They’ve deployed the 'Sonic-Distruptors,'" Tommy said, his face illuminated by the bioluminescent moss on the walls. "They aren't using traditional shells. they're broadcasting a high-frequency dissonance designed to shatter the Sombra-marrow. If they hit the resonance frequency of the Coral-Spire, the roots will liquify. The building will collapse into the sea."

Cassia's desk. “Focus!” I could almost hear Elara's voice. “Remember the meditation!” Right. Okay. Breathe. Center. Find the balance between Nyx and Astra… But the flames kept spreading, feeding off my panic. I could feel Kane and Zane trying to send calming energy through our mate bond, but it wasn't enough. The room was filling with smoke. Dr. Cassia was shouting something about the sprinkler system. Kane and Zane were calling my name.

They did not take the Falcon Squad seriously and sneered as they readied to kill them all. Charles and the others felt dejected after sensing the power of two perfect-class master fighters. It seemed that Zayn had truly abandoned them. It was at that precise moment when a rock, about the size of a fist, came flying across the air all of a sudden. It was travelling at such a high speed that the friction ignited the surface of the rock and it created a sonic boom. It was aimed directly at Octavius’ body.

She roared. Joshua is looking at Mel in shock. Clearly, he didn’t know his sister had a talent. He nodded, and Jaxon was crying. The fear in his eyes breaks my heart. I can’t look in that window right now. I can’t bear to see how Jude may look right now. Mel claps her sonic boom once, and the walls shake…twice, the brick around the doorframe cracks…thrice, and the frame is broken completely. On the fourth clap, the door falls to the ground, and Jaxon snarls viciously, as does Joshua.

The air smelled of burnt sugar and the metallic tang of deep space, a scent she had come to prefer over the cloying ozone of the Capital. "It’s not burnt, it’s 'caramelized' by atmospheric friction! This is high-velocity cooking, Sofia!" Nomo yelled back from the cockpit, his laughter echoing through the ship’s vents. There was no terror in his voice anymore, no jagged edge of survival. It was the sound of a man who finally had enough air in his lungs to breathe.

Yoshida brushed it off and continued debriefing us. “Mrs. Burns, I loved the floor plan of your resort and your revenue outlook looks fantastic!” Veronica humbly nodded her head to the shorter, older, asian woman. “Miss Summers, your resort also looks remarkable, and the expense report was expertly crafted and well thought out.” I smiled and Martha secretly fist pumped herself.

Marcus grabbed Ben and Hailey and threw them—literally threw them—to the left, diving behind a pillar of frozen stalagmites just as the air ripped apart. VOOOOOM. A beam of superheated red plasma erupted from the middle head. It didn't make a pew-pew sound; it sounded like a freight train screaming. The beam hit the spot where they had been standing a second ago. The ice didn't melt; it sublimated instantly into steam. The shockwave knocked Jack flat against the cavern wall, rattling his teeth. "Okay," Hailey coughed, patting out a small fire on her sleeve. "That’s definitely not a Golden Retriever."
