All Chapters of No Second Chances: The beginning of the end: Chapter 1 - Chapter 8

Many years ago, when the earth was still a civilized place, the life within would start to destroy itself because of the basic, yet the powerful feeling of greed. The development of science reached a point where genetics could create life easily, so governments around the globe created "monsters" with dragon/dinosaur-like bodies which could resist most of the weapons created by mankind. These biological weapons started developing special abilities related to nature. There was a point where humanity couldn't restrain their instincts, and they broke free.   Humanity was so afraid of its own creation that we hunted down most of them by throwing special nuclear bullets, not even close in power as atomic bombs but effective enough to kill at least one of them. But there was something we missed, something that really matters after all: living beings adapt and evolve to survive. The worst happened. Winged beasts that were immune to radiation and could b

The knowledge in the world grew far more than expected, and there were some who wanted to acquire all the knowledge they could, these are the collectors. Some of them travel in large groups and others rather travel alone but every one of them seeks knowledge. Some of them even accept job requests in exchange for knowledge. There was once one large group of collectors, all of them with years of experience and knowledge wrote invaluable books which they carried all the time in their transports. One day, these collectors were studying the place where the Prophets sealed away the Death itself, DD. What they didn't know was that the Prophets couldn't seal DD completely, they just chained it down to the earth inside a mountain. One of these collectors had a child, a new-born boy called Chronos, in honor of the God of time. It was the only baby among them and his parents couldn't just leave him. What they didn't know is the mis

"I'm Natasha by the way, but everyone calls me Nat and I am a Dwarf" -Nat said looking up to Chronos while walking towards a relatively ancient-looking shack. "You?" She asked.   A Dwarf, that explains her stature -Chronos thought before answering. "I'm Chronos" -He replied.   "I'm sorry for what happened back in the inn, I know Bernard since I have use of common sense and he likes to fool foreigners but lately the number of travelers has decreased and he has got barely income from his job. Anyway, you look like a foreigner, so let me tell you: some weird stuff has happened lately, a strange light appeared about a month ago and special teams from the government came many times to inspect the town asking for a dragon egg, don't you think it is weird? Some people were taken to the capital to be interrogated a week now" -Nat explained.   "It is true, I'm a foreigner, and thanks for the information, Natasha" -C

Chronos and Phill blacked out almost instantly after they hit the ground. the Dragon survived the explosion and the radiation seemed to have no effect on it. When everything seemed calmed the dragon went back to where it came from. Argos was destroyed but not all the population had the same deadly fate. Some of the villagers cried their losses and some others tried to rescue their belongings. Everyone was affected in some way or another. The scorched piece of wasteland which once was half of the town and the other half which was ruined became a kindly reminder of how devastating a single AMHAR unit could be. Nat survived the demolition of the house and popped out of the rubble with a deep breath. "Gree! Are you alive?!" -She asked while trying to release the rest of her body from the debris. Gree raised a hand and made a thumbs up while trying to grab something from the rubble. "Yeah, I'm pretty much alive" -She said wit
