The Mayan ceremonial dagger had an inscription in the ancient language that read: "Offer thy heart". It's obviously an instruction left by the past inhabitants of this forgotten place, but who would be stupid enough to stab himself in the heart with a rusty old knife found inside a tombstone? After activating my battery pack the dagger shimmers brightly in a cyan light, the creatures are coming, I can hear their steps. 'It's do or die.'

Lucas Elliott, the formidable CEO of ZigLan Corp. is known to the boardroom as "The Ice King" and to the underworld as the lethal Elian.

He has built his life on absolute control, until one night of drug-induced passion with a stranger shatters his icy resolve.

As the "Ice King" begins to melt under the warmth of Beatrice’s presence, the war turns deadly. With Damien tightening his grip on the government and the underworld, Lucas must navigate a minefield of sabotage and secrets. In a world where love is a liability and power is a death sentence, Lucas and Beatrice must decide if their fragile bond is a sanctuary or a target.

This man began as a completely unremarkable defensive midfielder. Then, by chance, he learned a bit about organizing play... then a bit about carrying the ball forward... and then free kicks too. And just like that, the football world got lively. Kaká and Cristiano Ronaldo loved playing with him—handsome, eloquent, and most importantly, the guy who covered their backs so they could focus on attacking up front. Messi had a love-hate relationship with him. Every time he played against Barcelona, he got fired up—and somehow always dragged Messi into playing brotherly football. All number 8s loved playing alongside him—his coverage was everywhere, his pressure resistance was second to none. He was the ultimate shield in front of center-backs, the perfect partner to midfielders, and the strongest wall behind the forwards. Xabi Alonso was his mentor, Mourinho his boss, and Pogba? Just his junior. Whenever a reporter asked him how he got so good, he'd always reply: “Train like hell. Give it everything you’ve got!” Thank you for the support, friends.

Years later, when he would finally hold the “Lifetime Achievement Award” in his hands, Makoto would recall one very specific afternoon—the afternoon he was sent flying ten whole meters… By Kitasan Black. At the time, he had only recently gotten his Central Trainer’s license. Unfortunately, his lack of experience was obvious, and many Umamusume turned him down without a second thought. And so, after being rejected yet again, maybe his mind wandered a bit too much. While waiting to cross at a red light, he spotted a child nearly step into oncoming traffic. His body moved before his brain could catch up. The kid was fine. He was not. Because he got hit. Not by a car, but by an Umamusume. She had black hair, red eyes, and a matching black tail. And she slammed into him at full sprint. Thanks to years of quiet self-training—secretly guided by memories from a past life—he managed to twist midair and land without too much damage. Still, getting launched like that wasn’t exactly part of his daily routine. The Umamusume, on the other hand, was completely panicking. “I-I’m so sorry! Are you hurt?! A-are you okay?!” “I-I'm Kitasan Black! A first-year at Tracen Academy! Pleased to meet you—wait, no, that’s not what I should say right now!” “I—I mean—I’ll take responsibility! I’ll take full responsibility for this!!” That’s how it all began. The girl’s name was Kitasan Black. And this was the start of everything. = = = = Note: Some character backgrounds and settings have been reworked for narrative purposes. This version expands the Umamusume world while staying faithful to the spirit of the original. Non-Umamusume fan can read it as a mix of sports drama and school life.

Time Magazine once gave this review of a man: "Mr. Yang is a great inventor. The products he created changed how hundreds of millions live, work, and travel." "At the same time, his inventions created millions of jobs and made outstanding contributions to regional economies." ... Never would he have imagined—Yang Wendong, already a successful entrepreneur, would accidentally travel back to the 1950s. Given a second chance, he would once again rise from nothing, climb to the peak of this era, and build a century-spanning Chinese family empire.

For decades, humanity has lived in a world that isn't quite what it seems. Since the Great Awakening of 1952, magic, monsters, and people capable of supernatural feats have existed beneath the surface of ordinary society. And while most people remain blissfully unaware of the hidden world around them, eighteen-year-old Cyrus Moore is about to have that ignorance ripped away, whether he wants it to or not. After a devastating accident leaves him on the brink of death, Cyrus awakens to something impossible: a power he never knew that existed within him. Suddenly thrust into a world of sorcerers, supernatural creatures, secret organizations, and dangerous mysteries, Cyrus discovers that surviving is far more complicated than simply learning how to control his newfound abilities. Every answer seems to uncover another secret, and every step forward draws him deeper into a conflict that has been unfolding long before he was ever made aware of it. With enemies lurking in the shadows and allies whose true intentions aren't always clear, Cyrus must learn who he can trust while struggling to understand what is happening around him. But the deeper Cyrus ventures into this hidden world, the more he realizes that his awakening may not be all that it seems. Something is changing. Reality is beginning to crack at the edges. Old mysteries are beginning to surface. Dangerous forces are moving in the shadows. And the boundary between humanity and the supernatural is becoming increasingly fragile. Cyrus wanted an escape from an ordinary life. Instead, he awakened to a world where magic is real, monsters are hunting, and the greatest danger may be the truth waiting to be uncovered. The awakening has begun, and reality will never be the same….

No one remembers how it started. By the time it mattered, it no longer did. The War had dragged on for years. Borders were redrawn in blood and cities were emptied, until the nations of the world, desperate for an ending, reached for the weapons they had sworn never to use. Nuclear fire lit the skies, engineered plagues drifted on the wind. For a moment it seemed to have worked, and the fighting stopped, but the poisoning didn't. Plants grew twisted, animals turned into things that had no names and people changed too, though never in the same way. Some were untouched, some went mad, many simply died. The lucky few who changed differently woke to find something new inside them, a power unlike anyone else’s. They called these gifts Manifests, no two ever alike. The world that rose from the ashes of that war would come to be known as The Fallout. [Releases 3 days a month: Monday, Wednesday, Friday (2 Chapters dropping per day)]
