T H E G O D O F speed was spectacularly remarkable as he worked his way around the entire rock bed that surrounded the white towering statue that had just lost one of its arms.
It had grown gradually dark which only added to the degree of foulness and loss of human life that had just occurred barely moments ago.
Despite having used his speed to cut through the horde of monsters and whisking terrified tourists to safety miles away from the mountain repeatedly, Hermes was devastated at how many more people had died.
He could see the shimmering blood-splattered floor; the limbs; the guts.
These creatures were completely devoid of humanity and only wreaked of death.

Lucas stared at the monitor and Henry, despite being the most annoying person on the planet like ever, was right. Atlanta has been on the radar ever since the first invasion back in 2007 when Lucas or any of the people present in the room had not even been born yet. Then there was 2010—the more infamous one termed as the Berserker Apocalypse (Berserkalypse). Then back in 2028 and now the one that was just happening right outside. Henry had called them to come take a look at the monitor after Sally the

The man then quickly began to undo his parachute bag when he sat up and gasped after seeing hundreds of creatures coming at him from the same energy mass he had just sprung out of. He fumbled with the straps. Shit! They had been intertwined. The creatures roared as they charged at full speed. There were so many of them, coming out from different energy masses. Come on! The straps were tightly locked into each other. He turned to look at the creatures that were then only a foot away. Having run out of options, the man frantically raised his arms over his head and awaited to be stampeded by hordes of ali

Blood that had been shed following the Titanomachy or as the gods would most commonly identify it — the first Ultimate Speedverse war. The great cosmic battle saw the fall of many a powerful Celestials as they tore each other apart trying to acquire the three entities that made up the cosmos—the three Heralds of the Ultimate Speedverse. Of the trio, the most potent and most coveted Herald—Reign—had been too solemn of an entity for a Celestial to just take and wield which was why it got easily lost throughout the great battle. Hurtling at incredible speeds exceeding that of light itself, the entity was cruising through the cosmos until its immense power had led to the creation of a singularity. The singularity fed from the voluminous amounts of energy dissipated by the entity until it had grown so massive

Turning her head to the left, Natasha’s blue eyes were then looking at a thin, dark-haired boy and was shorter than both her and Lucas. He looked to be about around twelve to fourteen years old and just like Lucas—as Natasha noticed—was clad in a similar apparel of a loose pasty white shirt and brown rumpled pants. “You’re awake!” the boy beamed and Natasha caught his inflected accent. “Yeah,” Lucas responded, introducing Natasha to the boy. “this is Sang.” -“Hi, Sang,” said Natasha - “he’s the one who found us when we-we. . .got here.” “Already walking,” said Sang, his light brown face still beaming, looking at Natasha, “that progress very good.” Natasha then turned from Sang t

She was about to go inside when—"Diana, over here, " she spun around to spot Nick seated on one of the tables set outside the restaurant. There was a couple talking and laughing in one; a mother wiping away a drop of ketchup that had dripped on her son's shirt and then there was Nick."Hi," Diana said, taking a seat and facing Nick."Hey," his dark hair was short, matching his dark eyes as he beamed at her."Actually, there's something I wanted to tell you," Diana bit her lower lip that was as red as her hair.Nick rested his hands on the table, ushering her to go on.

This was after new footage had begun to be broadcast by satellites. Madam Secretary was one of the many people who were watching, alongside the Army General, the Chief of Staff of the Air Force and the entire UN Summit all the way from New York.Victoria Courtney had returned to the Pentagon around seven hours ago, having come from the Kennedy Space Center in Florida. Everybody had been pressuring her to take more action as the brutal battle outside continued to escalate. She had adamantly cut off all of them, not wanting to put at risk the lives of civilians.Two hours earlier, it was confirmed that the extraterrestrial life forms had all been destroyed by the heroes of Atlanta.

Elektris erupted in a burst of sizzling white light that was accompanied with flashes of lightning of the same color. The flashes struck out dangerously in all directions and Jenna alongside the others had to fall back—all except for two—Viper and Hermes. They charged towards her, both of them throwing great bolts of lightning at her which blended in a radiant blue-green. The bolt struck Elektris but she hardly finched, knocking away the bolt of lightning as if it had been a stick thrown at her. Her body still aglow with the white lightning, she began to spin, discharging the lightning flashes so that they darted out like electrified projectiles. Viper and Hermes ducked and dodged, performing all kinds of evasive maneuvers to avoid getting hit. Elektris then stopped, the lightn

“Y O U W I L L D I E for that!” Hermes spoke with words that came out as pure rage. He had said shortly before summoning all of his might and burst through the wrecked ground, moving so fast that debris was sailing all around him. He had just witnessed the supposed death of Viper and Lucas, having seen how Elektris had used Reign on them, destroying them to nothing. He rammed hard into Elektris, sending both of them flailing high up into the night air. His hair billowed against the wind and was no longer crowned with his petasos which had fallen off his head back at the park. Hermes was blinded with fury, delivering blow after blow that sent the goddess even higher into the air until Atlanta was no longer in sight. Elektris reeled backwards with every blow, most of which connected with her jaws and flashes of blue lightning would ripple out with every attack. One would

No. This could be felt and seen all over the planet. It had started with the strange visuals coming from the skies. Terrified people from San Francisco were hurrying to evacuate California, moving into Mexico and Canada after the attack on the Golden Gate bridge which then lay split in half, both of its ends dipping into the Pacific. Others from Nigeria reported having seen what they could only associate with the Devil, stating that demons had tore through Lagos Island, wreaking havoc and unleashing chaos as they did so. This was also similar in Brazil after a bright white light had been spotted pouring out of the sky over the city of Rio d

It sounded like a hundred hammers all hitting the ground alternatingly and the ground shook, dust quickly levitating and clouding the night air. Something else accompanied the hammering noise. Strange snorting noises similar to that of a breathing animal—about a dozen of them.The once tranquil vicinity and night of silence was plunged into a noisy mayhem when there came a very shrill cry that was enough to send both Natasha and Lucas springing up in bed as well as the rest of the villagers.“What the hell was that?” Lucas asked, the enstranged look on Natasha's face telling him she had heard it too.“I&md

She then got the urge to pull herself out of bed after which came the hard part—standing. Natasha heaved herself up ever so painfully, fighting through her upset legs and finding the walking staff that Sang had give her, propped its arm rest under her right shoulder and the pressure on her legs loosened. She exhaled and made for the door. Outside, Natasha could see people going about their business in the rising sun that was barely visible over the horizon. She realized that she had gotten up a bit earlier. Cows were being herded out onto the small patches of grass while others were being milked. A young boy ran with a scruffy looking dog away from the village before stopping to lap at water from a flowing
