“Hey hey hey, Jack, did you watch the death broadcast last night? It was too exciting. It was simply too enjoyable! That Death Inquisitor was too awesome. Too cool. Two people were killed by him at the New York City Police Station. Don’t you think it’s awesome? Too awesome!” Jack smiled faintly and said, “All right. You can go back. You can watch it when you go home.” Thompson shook his head and said, “No, no, no. My phone doesn’t have any traffic. What if those people die on the way home? I can’t miss such a wonderful scene of death! I have to watch those people die before I leave!” “Then why don’t you go back to the day shift?” “All right. Then you can go back!” Thompson waved his hand and

Chapter 19: Breaking Point The city’s pulse was uneven, jagged, like a heartbeat skipping under pressure. Neon signs reflected off wet asphalt, casting fractured lights onto rain-slick streets. Shadows twisted and stretched, hiding both danger and opportunity. For the insider, there was no rest. Each step, each glance, each flicker of movement could be a hunter, a reporter, or an unknown observer.

ADRIEN A City on Fire The tension in the city was thick enough to cut with a knife. I could feel it in the air every time I stepped outside. The streets that had once buzzed with life were now filled with an ominous silence, interrupted only by the distant sounds of sirens and gunfire. Each day brought new reports of gang wars escalating, innocent lives caught in the crossfire. My heart sank further with each headline I read or news bulletin I heard. This was no longer a city; it had become a battleground.

she glared at me but I didn't back down from her murderous stare. "Do you really want to see your daughter?" She tried threatening me and I took a step forward and watched her turn defensive getting ready to pounce on me at any wrong move I would make. "Are you trying to threaten me with my daughter? Cause trust me tesoro you'll be dead before you get a chance to blink again" i whispered into her ears and I loved the way her body stiffened at our close body proximity. She placed her palm on my chest and I took in a sharp breath at the long lost body contact.

"Are you Mr. Glenn Miller? Was it you who called the police just now?" "Yes," I replied, stepping aside." The suspect is inside. Please come in." The officers entered. "What's going on here?" Dwight was so terrified he slumped to the floor, a dark patch instantly spreading across his pants. Myra shrieked and threw herself in front of him. "Officers, this is all a misunderstanding. He's my brother. We're family. It's a family dispute." "Family dispute?" Steven Holt, the officer in charge, frowned. He glanced at the flickering game interface on the computer screen, then at Dwight, trembling uncontrollably on the floor. "The report mentioned a large-scale property theft. What exactly happened?"

He scanned his eyes through all the arrows and city names on the map, and wondered why there were so strange cities in Dark City.

Kellan asked, turning away from the map.

The room exploded in a cascade of holographic data—a visual representation of the entire city, mapped out in a glowing, intricate web of connections. With every thrust, the city pulsed. It was a sickening, beautiful horror. I could feel the grid. I could feel the people—thousands of heartbeats, a dull, rhythmic roar in the back of my mind. It was overwhelming, a cacophony of fear and desire, all filtered through the bridge of Dante’s body. I wasn't just having sex with him; I was being plugged into the city’s subconscious.

Emma closed her eyes, letting the rhythm of the city soak in, calming her nerves while filling her with excitement. By the time she reached her apartment, the sky was dusky, the streetlamps flickering on. The small, cozy apartment welcomed her with cream-colored walls and a tiny balcony overlooking a cobblestone street. She placed her suitcase down, exhaling deeply. This was her new life. Emma unpacked carefully, arranging her clothes, setting up her laptop, and placing a photograph on the desk — a reminder of the life she had left behind and the courage that brought her here. Stepping onto the balcony, she breathed in the crisp evening air. A faint violin melody floated up from the street b

Some even said this city is cursed, and a city of unification of evil. They are not completely wrong, the crime rates in this city have been quite devastating.

“You already know the answer to that. Fortunately for us, he was a fool enough to abuse his ability. Then again, he wouldn’t have gone to all sort of measures just to make sure you’d fall right into his hands. We could say that, in a way, most of his plans backfired. We found each other and we were ready to die saving each other.” Shrugging, Hera leaned on her outstretched arms, staring blindly at the setting sun. “Still, I don’t see the point why he has to surround his underground city with illusions.” “Beats me.” Sheels pursed her lips. “I don’t know what he’s up to, but maybe it was to trap us and to keep track in our progress since we can feel everything in the radius of our projection.”
