Haze & Chaos - The Hunt Part 2

Previous | First | Next Master Post - Patreon      “Good lord, Specialist, are you just going to do that on a regular basis?” Marcus questioned.      “With all due respect, Colonel, there’s no point in wasting time with a road trip,” Will pointed out with a laugh as the trio approached the big table. The soft, white lights and sounds of humming computers were a welcome comfort amidst all of the uncertainty.      “There you are, Will,” Mayhem said as he stepped over. “Sorry you couldn’t go to Japan...”      Will took a seat at the table next to Reynard. “We’ll figure something out. Hey, Dr. Reynard.”      Reynard adjusted his glasses and smiled. “Good to see you, Will. Well done on the void door–did you even use your void spells for that?”      “Nope, all I had to do was snap my fingers.”      Reynard then snapped his fingers, “Ah-ha, kid’s a natural. I’m honestly starting to...

Haze & Chaos - Retaliation Part 2

Previous | First | Next Master Post - Patreon      Will stepped into the War Room only for his eyes to need to adjust to the white LED-based lights overhead. Things were calm as computers hummed, some staff moved back and forth, and the big screens displayed all sorts of data–but before he could properly take it all in and speak, someone announced his presence. “Will–where’d you come from!?” Trumna asked… he then realized the obvious as he lightly cleared his throat. “You’re here about Mr. Duckenfield, aren’t you?”      “Yeah, pretty much,” Haze answered with a nod of Will’s hand.      Trumna sighed, got up, and brought Will over to a chair at the big table. “Don’t worry, son, we were well on it before he started posting…”      Antares walked over from one of the side tables with a subtle, anxious smile on his face and sat down next to Will. “There you are, Priv… Specialist–good lord, I’m still not used to that… Don’t wor...

Haze & Chaos - Reunion B Part 2

Previous | First | Next Master Post - Patreon      Will actually felt pretty good leading the group through the forest, despite the anxiety that was to be expected. While his other squad mates were more knowledgeable in tactics than he was, Will picked up some things over the course of his career regardless. The group walked casually past the ancient trees, bushes, roots, and stones–each of them taking in the splendor as the sun shone through the leaves and branches. Birds unique to Ertheval chirped away while scurrying rodents such as squirrels and chipmunks darted in front of or away from the group. Will slowed his pace as he saw a young toad hop on by, thankfully away from where they were heading. Yale chuckled, but had to remind Will they were on a mission when he pointed the amphibian out to the group. After some more trekking over some roots that nearly tripped him, Will stopped the group when he heard faint yelling in the distance.      “Shit, th...

Haze & Chaos - Reunion A Part 2

Previous | First | Next Master Post - Patreon      Kyu gave a subtle, nervous chuckle as he looked at the clock on the far right wall. “We’re never going to get out of here at this rate… Guys? While this catch up is fun, we do need to get moving as Sky Fortress Camelot is on the move and it will be out of range soon.”      That seemed to raise some concern in Will as a foreboding feeling he could not shake crept in. “Something’s got Aalders that up in arms?” Kyu nodded, with Will accepting with his own nod. “Alright, we’ll make this quick then. Trevor, this is Mads, my new void patron, and this is Blood-Wraith. Guys, this is Trevor, arguably the true owner of the house.”      Trevor was just as nervous as Orion was around Mads, but he did not sense any ill will from him… just a bunch of snake scales for some reason. “Nice to meet both of you–welcome to our home, you’re welcome around here any time,” he said as he shook their hands. Feeli...
