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 love 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 distraught.
Vick was a 35-year-old, five foot and six inches, 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 always maltreated Vick. He was infatuated with Barbra. He over-looked a lot of tells 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 travelled 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 his one of few friends, Leroy.
When the heart-broken 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 overweighed body of 250.
“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 trouser 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 two-bedroom 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 home boy.” Eric, 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 Eric’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!” Eric exclaimed with a horrific look as soon as Vick got up. Vick did not care because he was not listening. His ex-words still rang in his head as he walked to his bathroom.

Chapter 1 of Fighting Under Casper King
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 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 fucked side!” The jester proudly proclaimed as he performed his art to the reluctant crowd.
“Yeah, yes we do!” Most of the crowd present fearfully responded in agreement. The jester was dressed in bright colorful mismatched outfit. He held two machetes in each hands 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.
“Haha,” the jester laughs 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 whispers 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 bows his head and raised both arms in the direction of the Emperor’s seat box where the general sat. “Haha,” Casper laughs and claps. “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 inches general with 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 forcible taken. His depravity did not stop with enemies but allies as well.
“Thanks for the introduction funny man,” Casper says as he walked towards the crowd. They were gathered in the arena of a coliseum 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 over 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 make battle sounds with their weapons. The ambience 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 would lead you to your new destinations. But I have got to say, you Gledellans have one 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 Gledellan 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 in 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 silent mumbles grew a little loud 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 says with an evil grin. “Where is he now?” “He is among those fighting your soldiers now.” Rachelle replies trying hard to show no fear. “Good, good” Casper says, “I suppose you are the parents?”
“Ye…yes sir,” the father manages to say. “We are grateful for the warmth you have shown sire,” the mother quickly added.
“What about you beautiful? Are you grateful at 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 call me anything you want.” The general concluded smiling…
