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

Jinn blinks and the press room's flashing camera lights disappear.

Feng Mian sits upon a leather seat, kimono splayed elegantly around her legs. A car made more for sleekly driving through a war zone with missiles hurtling at it than transporting a little girl towers powerfully around Feng Mian's body.

"We're sending you to Eastville," Feng Mian's mother pats Feng Mian's head compassionately.

Caught unawares by the sound, Jinn looks back. There are reporters snapping photos a few meters away.

"You'll learn a lot there," her father continues. "Make the best of your time. We will accept nothing but excellence."

"Mother. Father." Feng Mian responds dully.

The car rolls away and Feng Mian falls asleep as its smooth movement lulls her from side to side.
