Chapter 1 of Super Eternal Transformation titled:

Alter Call

Vick Scaner sat on the porch by his television asking himself, “Is it
better to have loved and lost than to not have loved at all?” He
could not answer that question amid his present situation. “Barbra
was the only girl for me, and she left me at the altar for my friend,”
Vick complained in distress.

Vick was a 35-year-old, five-foot-sixinch, overweight sales manager at a car company. His girlfriend,Barbra, had been cheating on him for the past five years that they had been together. Furthermore, she was controlling and alwaysmistreated Vick. He was infatuated with Barbra. He overlooked a lot of signs that Barbra was not committed to the relationship. She always made excuses as to why she could not make several of their mutually planned dates. Vick always thought she traveled a lot for her job.

She was the secretary to Vick’s best friend, Leroy. It was a job that Vick had helped her get. Although Vick had a feeling that
Leroy and Barbra might be having a fling, he convinced himself otherwise and decided he was paranoid. It was not until the day of their wedding, two weeks ago, when he was left at the altar that he realized he should have addressed his concern in a more serious manner.

Vick, who had been friends with Leroy longer than he had
been with Barbra, was depressed beyond words. He watched his
once beloved girlfriend, Barbra, run away with one of his few
friends, Leroy. When the heartbroken man asked why she did such
a thing to him, all she could say was, “Leroy is more of a man than
you could ever be.” Those words have been ringing in Vick’s head
for the past two weeks since the incident. All he did since that time
was drink and eat, thereby making him gain 20 more pounds to his
already overweight body of 250 pounds.

“Hey Vick, are you in there?” Vick’s co-worker said. “This is Erik
from work.” Vick did not move an inch from where he sat. He
barely heard his doorbell ringing. He had been sitting in the same
spot for the last two weeks, getting up only to get food from his
freezer and to order from Thai and Chinese restaurants. Vick still
had on a shirt and trousers from his “never-happened” wedding.
“Hi Vick, I let myself in, the door was open… damn! Dude, you
stink as hell man,” Erik, Vick’s co-worker, could barely finish his
words because of the stench he perceived as he entered Vick’s twobedroom apartment.

Vick remained quiet as he stared at the television he hadn’t changed since he sat on his couch. Erik noticed the take-out plates all around Vick’s already messed up apartment.

“Dude, look at you man, this ain’t right fool. I know you went
through hell but this will not solve your problem homeboy.” Erik,
who was a tall and nice-looking Latin American man, said as he
was trying to comfort his co-worker.

Dejected Vick was surprised
at Erik’s behavior because they had just recently started talking.

“Hey man, you would not feel any better if you lock yourself up in
this place,” Erik said, looking around before he finished his words.
“Come on, let’s go out tonight, you, me, and some big booties all
up in our faces all night bro!” Vick’s reactions were as if he hadn’t
heard a word Erik had said, but he nodded his head and got up and
headed towards his room.

“Holy shit dude! Even ass smells better
than you right now man! Damn!” Erik exclaimed with a horrified
look as soon as Vick got up.

Vick did not care because he was notlistening. His ex’s words still rang in his head as he walked to his bathroom…

Chapter 1 of Fighting Under Casper King ( second story in Amazing short stories, short stories to read)

Chapter 1 Greetings

“Have you heard of him? The leader with the last name of a king?”
The court’s jester spoke with a flare of drama and passion. “The
east surrendered to him because they watched him mercilessly
champion over the west. He is the conqueror of the south, and
lucky enough for us, the north is his home. He gets what he wants,
when he wants, how he wants it, and he better not find you
wanting! Because death will be your greatest wish if you get on the
king’s bad side!” The jester proudly proclaimed as he performed his
art to the reluctant crowd. “Yes, yes!” The jester yelled out as he
continued to sing praise of his master. “Even as we speak, just
stone-throwing miles away from this very celebration, some of you
fled from your beloved home just before the dogs of hell arrived at
your doorsteps. You say you have come to pledge your allegiance,
but we both know the truth, don’t we? I asked you a question!”

“Yeah, yes we do!” Most of the crowd present fearfully responded
in agreement. The jester was dressed in a bright colorful
mismatched outfit. He held two machetes in each hand as he
performed directly in front of the spectators. He danced towards,
and swung his broad heavy knives carelessly aiming at the crowd
who had to move out of his way for dear life. “Haha,” the jester
laughed as he moved waywardly. “You all know hell in its cold
glory was about to break loose and this was the best way to save
your hinds. For your quick-witted thinking, our general has
permitted me to grant you asylum in one of our greater empires.
“But wait!” The jester halted all sound and movement. “Before I
continue,” he whispered loudly in a dramatic posture. “Allow me to
introduce the one worthy enough to lead us into this glorious battle.
The one worth enough to paint the place you call home a colorful
taste of bloody red!” “I give you general Casper!” The jester said as
he bowed his head and raised both arms in the direction of the
Emperor’s seat box where the general sat.

“Haha,” Casper laughed and clapped. “Tremendous! Just
wonderful. You have outdone yourself yet again, jester boy!” “I
live to please you, my lord!” “Hmm, very true. Keep up the good
work!” Casper King was well known for his notorious ways with
women. The five-foot-ten-inch general with a medium build made
his way to the top of Conilius’ hierarchy of warlords by
impressively dealing with his leaders’ enemies without mercy. He
was known as the undefeated womanizing general. As his power
grew in Conilius’ military court, so did his appetite for acquiring
concubines for his lustful needs. He killed anything in his way,
including the men involved with some of the women he had
forcibly taken. His depravity did not stop with enemies but allies as
well. “Thanks for the introduction, funny man,” Casper said as he
walked towards the crowd. They were gathered in the arena of a
coliseum a few miles away from Glendell, the capital city of Pelita.
“As you are well aware, Glendell is the only place left standing in
your once great empire of Pelita. All this would have been avoided
if your leaders surrendered like the overseers wanted. But still, in
my almost infinite mercies, I have decided to grant you asylum and
an opportunity to start all over again. We are a semi-republic
system after all,” Casper said with his best grin. “My name is
Casper. You shall address me as your new lord and master. Am I
clear so far?”

“Yeah!” The crowd yelled almost at the same time. The worrisome
and nervous looks on their faces compared to their attempt at
praising their captor disguised as savior was a thin line. The arena
was surrounded by enough soldiers to make the already agitated
crowd of war casualties feel tenser. General Casper continued, “I
will visit your former homes in a few days’ time. Those that were
loyal to their country till the end will meet just that, their own end.
If you have family or friends that chose this path, I hope for the
sake of what is about to befall them that they truly thought their
choices through thoroughly. They will not be dying with their
dignity or pride of country. It is my sole duty to tear that asunder!”
“Ahoo!” The soldiers around the vicinity chanted loudly as they
made battle sounds with their weapons. The ambiance from the
crowd seemed to take a turn for the worse.

“Welcome to the Conilius family!” The general concluded as he
started clapping. The soldiers followed and so did the rest of the
crowd. “My men will lead you to your new destinations. But I have
got to say, you Glendellans have some of the most beautiful women
around. As a top commander in the Conilius Empire, one of the
reasons I wanted to personally conquer this place for myself was
the rumor about the beauty Glendellan women possess. I must say
that I am impressed by what I have seen so far. Even as we speak, I
spot a beauty more stunning than a leaf droplet of a fresh morning
dew.” Casper said as he looked towards a specific direction of the
crowd. “You,” the general pointed in the direction of a woman
standing between two older adults that held her hands on either
side. “Come to me and let’s see about making your life better than
what it has ever been. You can bring those people with you if it
makes things easier.” Casper commanded. It was no surprise the
general had spotted what he thought was the most beautiful woman
amongst the crowd. Before the lady and her parents could respond,
the general’s men were already in the process of taking them
towards the emperor’s entrance of the coliseum. Casper went back
to his seat, excited about his new catch. There were lots of
incoherent mumblings amongst the crowd but none loud enough to
stand up against general Casper’s order. The three were directed to
stand before Casper. “What is your name, beautiful one?” Casper
asked. “Rachelle,” she said in an indifferent manner. The crowd’s
silent mumbles grew a little louder for a moment at hearing her
name. “Hmm, I see you are well known among your people. Is that
because of your radiant beauty?” “Thank you for your kind words,
my liege,” Rachelle began, “the reason for my popularity is mostly
because I recently got betrothed to the commander of Glendell,
Hansome Mystii.”

“Is that so?” Casper said with an evil grin. “Where is he now?” “He
is among those fighting your soldiers now,” Rachelle replied, trying
hard to show no fear. “Good, good,” Casper said, “I suppose you
are the parents?” “Ye… yes sir,” the father managed to say. “We are
grateful for the warmth you have shown, sire,” the mother quickly
added. “What about you, beautiful? Are you grateful for the
kindness I have shown, huh?” “Thank you for your kindness, my
liege,” the beautiful lady with an hourglass figure managed to reply
as she bowed with a slightly bent knee. “You may call me Casper,
my dear, just you though.” Casper chuckled as he continued, “soon,
you shall be able to call me anything you want.” The general
concluded smiling…
