Final lines....

He buried the chest deep in the ground.. and the facts became stories, and the stories legends, until it was only a bed time tale told to keep young ones well behaved. Once there was a ship from the stars that flew to our world, and on that ship was kept a hunger that sought to eat your soul...

Ian flipped the top off the beer and held out. "I was thinking about proposing but then I though nah."

"It's about time you made an honest man out of me." With a smirk Wilf took the bottle off Ian.

Watching her undress I realised that I loved her, but orders were orders after all. I still had to kill her.

I smiled at Tamas as i walked back through the gate; the security screen flared red and the lasers cut in before i could tell them that was the only way for the alien to escape, it would just infect the city... too late.

Looking into the rippling reflection, shoulders shaking, hands trembling until I brought them together, I longed to see Emma once more and hear her voice scold. "Didn't I tell you so?"

Sitting on the grassy knoll, a strange silence blanketing the blood soaked earth of the last battlefield, I looked around; the bodies of men and angels alike, all dead. Everyone was dead. A sensation came over me, like the cessation of all things was imminent.

I watched, finally at peace as the stars began to go out.

Taski pranced back to lay the stick at my feet. As I ruffled the fur of the big grey dog, I knew that the era of the werewolves was finished forever.

"It is a far, far better thing that I do, than I have ever done; it is a far, far better rest that I go to than I have ever known." And that was the way I decided to end A Tale of Two Cities after the original line "I'm Sydney Carton and that's my Tale, huh, huh, 'Tale'??" was deemed unprofessional.

So you see, in the end, I did learn something after all. Thousands of years of travel, endless amounts of pain, meeting new people, loving others, only to have them ripped from me, leaving heartache and despair. Empires and civilizations rose and crumbled because of my actions.

I learned not to leave the toilet seat up after my turn in the bathroom anymore.

"Well, that's the way the cookie crumbles!"
"Hey...I'm a cookie!"
"Hah-hah!"
"Hah-hah!"
"Hah, boy-o, boy-o."
"No, really, I AM a cookie...what the h*ll do you mean?"

The sun blazed high above them. It crested the hills and they knew they would never see it again. Hand in hand, they spent their last night together.

Novella that i'm working on which is part of my larger WIP backstory.

Eden and Sophie had said their goodbyes to friends and family. To everyone who came asking, from Eden's superiors in the Army to the reporters and police, they had all died when the road had been washed away by the storms. Only the Scarsdale villagers knew the truth of what had stepped through that portal and how they had defeated it.
Hand in hand, they stepped through into the Brave New World, ready to carry the fight to the demons there.

 

[Cat's Cradle]

We killed the giant monster, whoo-hooo!
Humanity is....saved, *sigh*....at least for today...*sigh*...
Kiss me now...but don't step in the monster gore!
Hah-hah...hooey.
THE END

One of the figures stopped and looked back. It was Adams. He smiled and nodded to Hardy, who returned the nod. Adams then turned away and began to move after his fellows. The outline of his figure began to shimmer, taking on the hue of the winter sun. The brightness made Hardy look away for a second. When he looked back Adams had vanished.


That's the end of my novel, Hand of Glory.

After all was said and done, nothing really changed. Nothing important, anyway. The world might look a little different now, it might have lakes and rivers where before there was desert and forest, and populations might have shifted a bit. But society kept on. The dwarves, of course, never left their mountain homes. The elves, they simply migrated. The halflings, well...they're still up to their same old deceitful tricks.

But that's what we fought for, you and I. To prevent change. The Dark One tried to change things, simply because he thought our societies had gone on for the same for too long. But it was a good arrangement for everyone; we all prospered, and life was balanced so population never grew nor declined too quickly.

Why change what has worked for twenty thousand years? There's no need to. And yet, everyone we fought against still clamored about "improvement."

I'm just glad it's over, and that I can again enjoy the cool, crisp, clean ale of The White Pony.

 

[Cat's Cradle]

-So, is this the end...or the beginning??
-Some might say...the beginning of the end.
-But how do you explain this ending to those who'd begin at the end, or end before the beginning truly begins?
-Or truly ends.
-Or truly ends, *sigh*. And what of...the middle, have we thought enough of the middle?
-The middle is a dead-end and leads to the beginnings of madness--which is the end. But maybe that's just me. Good bye!

THE END ?

(In for betaing...fingers crossed!)

 

[Westie]

"So what will you do now?"
"It's time to go and introduce myself to my late husband's family," she said, holding her pregnant belly.

 

[Cat's Cradle]

"Yeah," *sigh*, "yeah..."
THE END

(So, that's it! The last line of my tetralogy--FINALLY!! I've yet to write the 1st, or 2nd, or 3rd book, and this is the one bit I've finished for the concluding volume, but you know, I think this is really something...I think this could could get published! *rubs magic rabbit's foot*)

A master's degree in Applied Necromancy? How hard could it be?

 

[Karn Maeshalanadae]

(Karn would tell that guy just how hard it would be. )


So that is how it went. But I still wonder...

Why was I the one forced into helping the geese take over the world?
