*A Milo and Maisie novelette about Maisie and Feya!*

*Based on a real legend at Coronado Springs.*

*Must read Milo and Maisie first!*

Ethan Brumfield was once just an ordinary 15 year old teenage Boy in high school, until one day his life is turned upside down by monsters and demons who are trying to kill him without restraint. Just what are the 72 pillars, and what do they have to do with Ethan. Follow Ethan Brumfield down the long road to figuring that out, as he tries to survive getting killed by all those who lurk in the shadows.

The world fell into darkness. The day all humanity knew was twisted and contorted into something unstable and evil. The Capital city of this dark time Ōkoku was a town like others where the people lived their daily lives but this night was the night all would become none of what it once was. On a nearby boat fishermen were doing their job trying to catch big fish for the city and their own families so they could make their living and be done with it. But one fisherman spotted something across the sea. It was getting closer and closer, a creature at sea and it was speeding across the water as if it were on land! The men shouted at each other to ready the guns and cannons as they began firing at the beast; the bullets and cannonballs bounced off like pellets. The demon charged lightning in its mouth and fired out a blast setting the ship ablaze and leaping over it rushing into Ōkoku, burning and killing civilians. Just as that demon entered Ōkoku other demons began to follow shortly. They all rushed into the city, birdlike creatures flew in and fired waves after waves of searing flame down onto the city, torching people. Demons ran through the streets eating people, swallowing their souls and breaking buildings as their commander made himself known among all the chaos.

"Such beautiful suffering, I can't believe it has finally come, to think I almost missed the end of the world. Such pure pure ecstasy." His wings spread as he motioned for all the demons under his command to attack.

"The demons have shown themselves to the world, now we have no reason to hide ourselves. Kill as many as you can without worry of being spotted." A man's voice echoed through the heads of many. A man stood on a roof with his rifle aimed at the lion looking beast that destroyed and killed those people at the harbor. He lined up his shot and took fire, sending the beast flying and crashing down dead. A comrade of his used her Naginata to cut the legs off of one of the many giant demons before spinning around and slashing its head clean off. Another warrior tossed his chain onto the wing of a flying demon, sinking the blade in using the momentum of the demon's flight he launched into the air, zipped around, and came down slicing its back open, killing it in a single strike. It came down with a screech crashing to the ground as the man landed on it. These were the rays of hope that these citizens needed, allies who were just as powerful if not more powerful than the demons. So much so they could be considered demons themselves but not just any demons. These were The Fiends, Demons who kill Demons! They came in full force following the orders from their capital, known as the Divine Mountain. They all stood together strong and with wills unbendable and emotions incorruptible and with them came their captain. A warrior who graduated to the top of the Divine Mountain in mere weeks, a record unheard of by any Fiends known to record. Known as "The Tyrant Of The Battlefield", they called him a Warlord and One Of The Divine Mount's Greatest Fiends.

|OLDER DRAFT|

Lost in the depths of the Lady Evelyn-Smoothwater Provincial Park, Ranger Kates meets a mysterious hermit who may very well have a connection with the decade-old legend of the Ghost of Ontario.

***

Ranger Kate wants only one thing: to see her son, whom she lost to a canoe accident ten years ago. The opportunity comes when she and her partner, Ranger Amelia, attend the 24-Hour Ghost of Ontario Challenge in the Lady Evelyn-Smoothwater Provincial Park. Legend has it that a ghost haunts it with his mysterious lullaby, "Lucilla", and the only way to connect with him is for two individuals to brave the lakes.

Ihaan never expected to find Ranger Kate on Red Squirrel Lake, said to be the birthplace of the ghost. He and his eagle friend, Ro, band together to win her trust, which is crucial for Ihaan's Guardian Trial. It's the only way for him to learn whether he is truly dead or not.

Fate turns to reality, and suddenly, the legend of the ghost is more real than Ihaan and Kate think. What will happen when the Spirit Animals come and try to interfere with their long-lost memories? Will Kate and Ihaan defeat them, or will they lose themselves to the hands of Ontario's Beast?

The story briefly

It was Sameera’s, a twenty two years young and married girl’s strong desire to be the opposite sex and see how everything is to the opposite sex and Praomod, a twenty three years young and married man with a son, also has the same wish as much strongly as hers and it was just co-incidence that they both studied in the same class, same college and knew each other. It was also just co-incidence, that after they settled in their lives, they both met during a journey in a bus and shared the things of their lives including their strong desire to be the opposite sex and to enjoy everything as an opposite sex. Just before fell into sleep during that journey in that bus side by side in their seats, they thought in themselves how nice it would be if they become the other person, the opposite sex. To their shock and astonishment, when they woke up they found themselves in the other’s body. Even they could enjoy being the opposite sex by staying in the other’s body, they just did not understand how it has happened and did not know how long it would be so. Then staying in the other’s body, they went to the other’s home instead of theirs, managed themselves with the knowledge they obtained from the other all the time feeling confusion and uneasiness but not without enjoying their strongly cherished desire to become the opposite sex. How long they enjoyed their staying in the opposite sex like that and when their souls changed their places into their respective bodies again and how; is the story ‘Two Strangers on the Bed!” a hot, hot romantic thriller

Two Strangers on the Bed

It was one hour or so after the bus started moving and Pramod knew it would take nearly ten hours or so to the bus to reach his destination. The bus was almost empty except two passengers on the rear side. It was evening four and Pramod put himself reading some ebook in his smart-phone by the time the bus stopped in a bus station. Pramod could not remain without observing the proceedings then and the two passengers who were in the bus till that moment alighted from it and some three passengers entered into it.

“I think I know you.” The twenty two years or so young girl, who was one of the passengers entered into the bus came straight to him and slumped herself on the seat beside him.

“I am just thinking like that.” With a smile on his lips Pramod said. “After studying together three years in the same class in the same college, it is nearly impossible not to know each other, is it is not?” There was the same happy and surprising expression in his face reflecting hers. It was indeed impossible to forget Sameera who was the most beautiful woman in their college at that time.

“Of course, you are right!” her laughter was mellifluous and he could not remain without observing minutely her youthful and beautiful figure.

It was very much surprising to him that she came like that, slumped beside him and started talking so! Not just he, almost all the boys in the college used to observe and try to make friendship with her while they were studying in the college. But it was only he who never tried to let his interest on her to be known to anyone.

“You never used to talk with anyone, a reserved type! I think it was only you who never has shown any interest in me.”

While he was thinking furiously what to talk she said again. That meant he really could manage that his interest on her not to be known to her.

“Really you did observe that much of me?” the surprise was genuine in the face of Pramod. “You also very much reserved type and never appeared to show interest on anyone.”

“But I showed some interest on you.” the serious expression in her face was surprised Pramod. “Because you appeared handsome to me and on some occasions I wanted to talk with you. Before doing anything like that, our college education was over and we parted our ways. Anyhow.........” once again her laughter was mellifluous “...............just because mine was mere interest on you and nothing more I did not feel much at all.”

“No problem whatsoever.” Pramod also laughed. “But as you are open like this to me I also want to open with you. Just like the other boys, probably even more, I also was attracted towards you.  I also did some research on you and came to know some of the details about you.”

But he did not want to say what he came to know about her because it was not very much glorious. She was the eldest daughter in a poor family which comprised one sister and one brother. Her father was doing a very small job, her family was struggling a lot for maintenance and in fact looking forward for her completing education and join in a job.

“It is a surprise to me! You never appeared like a boy to show interest on girls like that.” She smiled.

“Unless you were such beautiful...........” he did not know how he was saying it like that. “..........I would not have bothered like that. Anyhow, no problem! Long before I found out mine also was just interest on you and nothing more.”

There was some silence between them both and both of them were observing the nature outside while the bus was moving fast. Just minutes before the bus crossed the concrete jungle and entered onto the road which was laid through the green fields.

“I really like observing the greenery in this way.” She said with a slow voice.

“It would be even more wonderful if you observe that sitting beside the window. Please come into my seat.” Pramod got off from the seat he sat.

Pramod reserved his seat in the internet and she bought her seat at the counter in the bus-station.

“But you would have reserved that window seat particularly for the pleasure of observing outside.” The gathered frowns on her forehead were also beautiful while she was saying that.

“You sacrificed the pleasure of sitting at a window seat even there are so many window seats vacant now.” He smiled and said. “Its a pleasure to me to give you the pleasure to observe the nature through the window.”

Then it just took seconds to both of them to change their seats. Once again there was silence between them both until the bus passed through the greenery and entered into concrete jungle again.

“What you are doing now? Still studying?” suddenly breaking that silence and looking into his face, she asked him.

“I put a stop to my studies when I was selected as a bank manager. I really did not expect but when I have been qualified in the competitive exam for manager for a nationalised bank I could not deny that.” There was little regret in his face as he did not like much what he did.

“Really a nice thing in my opinion!” She smiled. “But it seems that you have not enjoyed what you did.”

“You are right. I really did not like to stop pursuing my English literature in M.A. and do Ph.D also in that. My family was not in very much financial need also at that time. But everyone said getting a job as a manager in a nationalised bank is not a small thing. I was sort of hypnotised and joined in that job.”

“Really it was so?” she laughed her mellifluous laughter gain. “If it was so, why did you apply to that competitive exam? Even you applied for it, why did you write that exam that much better? If you did not write it better, you need not have done the thing you were not interested in.”

“I have applied for that competitive exam just casually along with my friends. Even more casually I wrote the exam without any idea that I do write it that much better that I would be called for an interview. When I have attended that interview......”

“.............you have no idea that you would do it better and select for the job.” She interrupted him and said sighing heavily. “I know how much painful it is to do things which we don’t like.”

“I did another very much painful thing which I did not like at all.”

She knitted her brows and looked into his face with a questioning expression.

“I got married.” He too sighed heavily. “I have become a target to the fathers of the girls once I settled in a good job like that and it did not take much time that my marriage was performed with a girl.”

“Sooner or later you have to be married. What that much worrying in getting married once you are settled in a good job also?” there was again a questioning expression in her face. “Were you in love with someone? Wanted to marry some other girl but that was not possible and have married to your wife?”

“It was not at all so.” He smiled but still with frowns and regretting expression in his face. “But I don’t want to be married at the age of twenty three and become a father also just by the age of twenty four itself!”

“Congratulations! Now you are a father also.” the frowns on her face were cleared and she smiled. “Is it is a son or daughter?”

“I am the father of one year aged son.” He once again sighed heavily.

“At the age of twenty five my dad has me, my sister and my brother, I came to know” she said with an admonishing expression in her face. “It was not very much horrifying and surprising! You are indeed lucky that you got a son. You have to enjoy your life.”
