      Prologue 0: Four Seasons



      The lines of immigration seemed to extend for an eternity. They wind through the underbelly of this city like a tapeworm. A city.......that's what they call it. It's a prison. The only person that is past from generation to generation. It's a curse that every new born child has to bare, unless you come here. He ponders, as he stands so close to the front of the building. This line of reluctant salvation is depressing. All around he hears the sounds of sobs. Mothers kissing babies, whispering apologies and doting comforts that they foolishly hope their children will remember for years to come.


      He grabs the handles of the Rikshaw and moves forward, taking the place of the family that just moved in front of him. Setting the carriage down, he looks back

The beginning is the end is the beginning 5 of 5

August 12th, 2008 in Damon, DnDCU 2008, Gabriel Grey by Wolf

The wind blows across the trash filled lot clanking some empty bottles together like a personal alarm clock to the lump of flesh near the wall. He wakes like so many days with his head pounding and throat dry. As his eyes slowly creep open he knows one thing instantly. He needs a drink, today more than ever.
It is October 25th, 2028. Three years to the day. His little guy would have been 8 by now and probably had a little sister as well.
Three years and He still can’t get the image out of his head. It, along with others as of late, haunts him.
The things he sees, and dreams he has, the horrible things they suggest he has done. They seem so real so alive.
He pushes up off the ground...

One mans Vision 4 0f 5


May 30th, 2008 in DCU, Damon, Gabriel Grey by Wolf

     
Gabriel


Thor stands motionless watching as events he has no way to stop unfold before him.
A young man and woman fight with a fury he has seldom seen. The man, who moves far quicker than his frame should let him, wields a sword with deadly precision; he is dressed in black leathers and has a full head of long silver hair. The woman looks to be wearing a Greek tunic that works hard to hide a very muscular frame. She has long flowing brown hair and just by looking at her has an air of royalty.
Woman: Why are you doing this? Damn it listen to me!
Her words seem to fall on deaf ears as the man takes a side step and catches her left shoulder with his blade.
Woman...

A new Threat? 3 of 5


May 15th, 2008 in DCU, Damon, Gabriel Grey by Wolf



The door to the Oracles chamber creeks open slowly as Thor steps in. Thor’s demeanor though usually very passive when he enters this domain is far from that right now.
Thor: Oracle, I have come to hear your warning, but I fear it too late.
The Oracle sits facing a far wall his back still to Thor when he begins to speak.
Oracle: Of this I am aware, yet what you have seen is just a taste of what is to come.
He turns and waves his hand gesturing to a seat near him.
Oracle: Sit, we have much too…
Thor interrupts: There is no time to sit. Many could be seriously hurt.
The Oracles places his hand on the seat and pats it lightly.
Oracle: Only one is hurt, the rest are beyond our help.
Thor sits and nods as Mjolnir clunks...

The End of Bliss 2 of 5

indestructible

Oct. 2025

It was a cold day in October when word spread that a group of marauders had descended on our small town. No one knew what they were here for we only knew that they were killing people.

Many had gone into hiding, mostly the women and the children, but we knew it wouldn’t be long till they were found. These villains had power and it was far more than we expected.

I held back at first staying with my wife and son. But when I saw firsthand the slaughter of people I had lived near for years something in me urged me to fight. I had an edge only few here knew about… I had power too. I was no Angst or Thor, but nature...

The Awakening 1 0f 5

May 7th, 2008 in DCU, Gabriel Grey by Wolf

A cold wind blows through the browning leaves of the trees that line the courtyard connecting to the Herald of Asguards throne room. It is an early October morning, the year 2025. Thor sits with one hand on hammer and one on his chin listening to his morning report.
Ashira, Thor’s personal body guard stands quietly listening when a page runs into the room; she stops him before his first word drops.

“What is your purpose here boy?” she says quickly but low so not to interrupt the report being given.
The page cowers slightly knowing the reputation of the woman who has greeted him and speaks in a matching tone. “The Oracle has called for...
