Emma Stone: The Protagonist of OMEGAEmma Stone stands as the central figure in OMEGA, and her lineage traces back to the great immortal Dracula, the sole supernatural to attain the coveted status of an OMEGA. Endowed with the comprehensive abilities of various supernaturals, Emma bears the weighty responsibility of a singular mission to forge peace among the diverse colonies and clans.In her pursuit of peace, Emma encounters formidable adversaries seeking to seize what she uniquely possesses, even as she endeavors to champion the greater good for all. Synopsis: A World in TurmoilFor centuries, supernaturals and mortals coexisted, forming an alliance to combat the looming threat known as the IMPERISHABLES. Dracula, patriarch of all vampires and the immortal realm, made the ultimate sacrifice, ushering in an era of peace that endured for five centuries. Yet, the echoes of conflict reverberated anew among the supernaturals, leading to a war that fractured their unity and power. Amidst this discord, factions emerged, dividing the supernaturals into colonies and clans, where the insidious allure of absolute power continued to sow corruption. Content Warning: A Tale of StrifeReaders delving into OMEGA should be prepared for chapters that vividly depict violence, touch upon themes of sexism, and include elements of LGBTQ representation. These facets, while integral to the narrative, may be unsettling for some readers.

The Devourer | horror | Complete
I awaken to a startling realizationI've transformed into a dragon! My wife and children still slumber, oblivious to my newfound form. Panic courses through me as I grapple with this surreal existence. No longer human, I must make a hasty escape to prevent my growing size from bringing our house down. But the world beyond is unkind. I'm hunted, captured, and subjected to torment, cast as the feared Leviathan, a creature of religious dread. Will my spirit shatter under the weight of these trials, or will I find the strength to resist? In my fight for freedom, I seek refuge and form unlikely alliances, constructing a new family amidst this bewildering transformation. How will my human family react to these newfound companions? Forced into a different gender by the imperative of rebuilding my species, I find myself adrift in a world devoid of Pok閙on. Monstrotanks? Brotherhood? It's all unfamiliar territory, and I long for peace, disavowing any connection to the charred town that has left a stain on my identity. I am Daathrr, not Sister Noah of the Ark, nor Mr. Freeman's cousin, and Black Mesa is not my workplace. I yearn for solitude in my hangar, far removed from these tumultuous events. My narrative takes an unyielding stance from the perspective of a dragon thrust into the complexities of modern technology, grappling to find a place in our contemporary world. It serves as a mirror to our society, revealing that, despite our technological advances, our mindset often mirrors that of the Middle Ages. Racism persists, but interspecies prejudice is an even darker shadow, stripping beings of their basic rights. How does one retain their humanity when it seems irretrievably lost? As the dragon's persona consumes my human side, it delves into the intricate realm of Dragon Psychology. The language I employ is straightforward, repetitive, and somewhat mechanical. I ask for your patience, as I am not an author, and my native language is French. If clarification is needed, please feel free to comment or request explanations, or simply refer to Google for further understanding. I strive to be as comprehensible as possible for those unacquainted with this world. Lastly, a word of caution: Do not attempt the incantations found within this story. I disavow any responsibility should scales suddenly begin to sprout upon you! Additionally, I do not own all the images used, and if any issues arise, I will promptly replace them. ATTENTION THE 70 first Chapters can induce depressions for some readers. There are unbearable sc鑞es of suffering when the MC is in an experiment lab with mad scientists. The story can be disturbing and hard to follow. There are like the TV serie LOST with mysteries, answers not explained, flashbacks and flashforward chapters. Also timeline can be broken. This is due to paradoxes. A paradoxes is when reality meet an other dimension, other time and it crashes when the MC goes back to another time with him in the same dimension. They cannot meet and they cannot be 2 Yvan at the same place at the same time or meeting. Then time froze and an sinister agent in dark blue suit appear : The G-Man! If you are totally lost there is a SPOILER in the tome2 and the explanation of this twisted story in the chapter 3 (Explanations of the tome 1)

If Cthulhu can be summoned by humans who are so far beneath it, why can´t humans be summoned by ants? The answer is, they should be. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- I´ve been wasting my time away on Tumblr and stumbled upon a nice Idea. This is the extrapolation of the question; how do ants see humans and how would you react to a bunch of ants chanting your name? Would you give them sugar if they ask nicely? Would you be a benevolent higher Power? Or something way darker and more sinister than you could imagen. As this is the first story, I have ever written, I could do with some feedback. Thanks The picture is from Ants Australia - YouTube. Just tell me if I should take another picture.
