Who Dropped The Metal On Rize Novels & Stories

Luna's voice rose to a shout, her aura flaring. It was a mere flicker of her former power, but it was enough to send the omegas scrambling for the door. Marissa shot her one last venomous look before they vanished, their footsteps hurrying down the hall. The moment they were gone, Luna's legs gave out. She collapsed on the vanity stool, her hands shaking violently. The brief surge of power had cost her dearly and nausea returned with vengeance. She barely made it to the toilet before she was retching, her body trying to expel the poison in her veins.

Chapter 11: Chase Rhys’s P.O.V "That went well," Zyane sighed, rubbing his temples. "Yes it did," I agreed, amused. But that amusement was soon wiped off my face as soon as I looked back at the spot Mikalya had occupied not long ago. "Holy Shit!" In her place hung a punching block made of metal alloy, but the only difference was that the long solid block in the shape of a cylinder was now crushed beyond recognition and there were slight red stains on them indicating that she had done it by bare hands.

Maybe I was still dreaming. Then came that shattering again , the groan. Low, pained. Then… nothing. I strained to listen, but the silence that followed felt too thick, too deliberate. The kind that didn’t belong. Something was wrong. The air smelled strange—metallic, sharp. Blood. I forced myself to move, peeling back the covers, pushing my feet onto the cool floor. My fingers closed around the only thing nearby that could be a weapon—a candle holder, heavy and solid in my grip.

Zoe mindlinked her parents to make sure they retrieved her before she came back outside. "Are you ready for this?" Ryder asked as they turned back toward Cressida. "As ready as I'll ever be," Zoe replied. They walked over to where Cressida was standing, stopping a couple of yards away. "How did you do that? Why is my spell not working on you?" Cressida asked angrily. "Let's just say you can't hurt us anymore. It's time for you to die," Ryder said as Zoe made them disappear. They leaped over Cressida and kicked her in the face as they went, knocking her to the ground. She yelled as she stood back up.

A hurricane of glass shards and freezing black energy swept toward the dais. "We are out of time!" Ashren bellowed over the deafening roar of the explosions. "Charge is set!" Jinx screamed, scrambling up from the floor. She grabbed Kaelen by his ruined uniform, dragging the injured Prince backward. "Brace for the drop!" Jinx slammed her thumb onto the detonator. The explosion beneath our feet was deafening but perfectly directed. The shaped charge blew the massive iron grate completely out of its mounting, shattering the concrete floor beneath the dais.

I only had a core. Then the second rod fell. Then the third. The 'Iron Rain' hammered down in a merciless, rhythmic drumbeat from the upper atmosphere. The GBCA bypassed explosives entirely, relying on raw gravity. They dropped pillars of dense metal to bludgeon the city into dust. Every strike sent a tectonic shockwave through my frame, driving me an inch deeper into the obsidian floor.

‌Thre‌e steps away. Two‌ steps. S‍ud‍de‌nly, the plaster ceiling dir‍ectly abov‌e t⁠he mercenarie‍s exploded outward. A shower‍ of drywall a‍nd dust raine‍d do⁠wn as the hea‌vy m⁠etal maintenance grate was kicked free‍. Enzo dropped from the ceiling like‍ a st​one, his AR-1‌5 a‌lready raise‌d.

"Wait, where are JumpStart's stun batons?" Looking around, scanning the surrounding area, I see JumpStart's stun batons on the ground, far from where JumpStart is. "JumpStart must have dropped his batons," I say, turning back to see Metal-Man walking with JumpStart in his hand. "Hold on!" I run and pick up the stun batons before running to where JumpStart is. It's too late though. While I was running to get the stun batons, Metal-Man made his way to some wooden supports. He pulls back his hand and punches JumpStart right through the wooden supports. As JumpStart flies through and breaks the wooden supports, the roof they're holding collapses and falls right into JumpStart.

I woke with a start to being rocked violently and the sound of gunfire. Springing up I saw a hoard of Nephilim above us, surrounding us. I had never seen so many at once. Liam and Jason were already up, Liam's katana currently removing a head from the body of one Nephilim, Jason's guns blazing, hitting their mark each time. Todd was standing on top of the truck, his sickles already slick with blood; Devon behind him picking off the ones further out one by one. Fucking hell, no wonder I had a bad feeling. Their wings pounded, sending a thrumming throbbing into my head, I reached behind me to pull out my scythe. It felt alive in my hand, tingling with actual energy, light as a feather and dead

“Lily, do you have any wishes for the new year?” Perhaps my expression stood out too much in the middle of all the celebration. Daniel suddenly called my name. “I want a raise,” I said. My voice wasn’t loud, but everyone heard it. The room suddenly fell silent. People slowly turned to look at me. The smile on Daniel’s face disappeared. “What did you say?” He walked down from the stage. He tossed the microphone aside, and it let out a sharp screech. “Say it again.” He stopped in front of me.
