SEP1A

The future of mankind rests in Noe's hands. Having faced brutal bullying throughout his life, Noe is sent to a boarding school where his luck takes a sudden turn for the fantastical.

Planet Earth, 2075. Humanity is hanging by a thread after World War Three rendered the globe inhabitable.

With the introduction of angels, demons and realms unknown, will Noe play a hand in saving humanity or let the humans that mistreated him burn beneath his flames? To destroy the World or save it? That is the question.

Excerpt:

Like a demon of destruction, Noe snaps.

His vision blurs and dissipates, scattered like glass beads across cement.

When he comes to, he is no longer watching the scene but is at its epicenter, soaking in a pool of purple blood, maroon cadavers strewn across the ground. Every centimeter of the hall is covered in gore - except for Mr. Henderson, whose eyes, wide-blown in astonishment... and horror, are captivated by Noe's neck.

Looking down at himself, Noe sees thousands of black feathers have sprouted out from his own flesh. They tingle at the root and shudder as he breathes, as if leaves clinging to a tree in winter. Blood coats his every morsel.

Springing his now grey fingertips onto his neck, Noe perceives what feels like the head of a purple hyacinth wrapped around it, its ribbon-like strands interlocking and jetting as if growing from his voice box.

Touching his face, porcelain-smooth, painted by blood, marble skin appears unbreakable.

It was all for first love.

Devil Child

"Uhm," Jinn disturbs the tense moment. "How much time do we have left?"

"Thirty-two minutes," Feng Mian responds.

Rosalind checks Jinn's body for any sign of malady. She finds Jinn swiveling in his seat. "What's the matter?"

With everyone's eyes on him, Jinn grins timidly. "I need to deal with some... natural cues."

Noe and Daniel relax, quickly moving closer together and letting their bodies intertwine. Noe rests his head on Daniel's shoulder and massages the tightness from Daniel's thighs.

Rosalind smiles, "I'm glad your body is still functioning well."

Feng Mian's eyebrows furrow, "What does that mean? Don't be weird."

Biting her tongue, Rosalind looks away.

"Feng Mian," Jinn scorns, "are you allergic to being a decent person?"

"How about we go down that tunnel so you can get some privacy, Jinn?" Rosalind suggests before an argument can develop.
